At noon, there were no guests in the inn.
Chao Feng brought the food to the dining table and kicked Li Ye, who was still pretending to wipe the table:
"Li Ye, don't wipe it. If you wipe it again, it will become pulpy. Go to the kitchen and bring the food."
Li Ye nodded, put down the rag that was still extremely clean after wiping for a long time, and trotted to the kitchen. He and Yin Ren came back carrying food.
After a while, Qiu Sheng took Li Waner back to the inn. Qiu Sheng saw the table full of delicacies and said sheepishly:
"Boss, there's really no need to deliberately busy yourself with so many dishes. I'm not a guest."
"Um~ Well, you probably thought too much. I finished working on the ingredients and found that there were no customers at noon. I was afraid of wasting it, so I brought it out to eat together."
After hearing Qiu Sheng's words, An Xin did not answer, but Chao Feng on the side spoke first.
When Qiu Sheng heard Chao Feng's words, he smiled and said:
"My name is Qiu Sheng, and I'm the waiter in the store. Who are you?"
"Chaofeng, you are the chef in the store. I heard Yin Ren mention you. You are a good person. I am optimistic about you."
Chao Feng said and smiled at Qiu Sheng.
"My name is Li Ye, we have met before, and I will also be the waiter of the inn in the future."
Li Ye, who was on the side, heard the two introduce each other and interrupted.
"Master Li, I have worked hard for you recently."
When Qiu Sheng heard Li Ye's words, he didn't deny other people's face.
"He's not working hard. He's been here for two days and the only thing he's done is serve a jar of chaff wine to the guests. By the way, Qiusheng, have you bought your house yet?"
An Xin asked doubtfully.
"It's done. I bought it diagonally opposite. It's not close to the street, but the interior is pretty good. Wan'er likes it there."
"Well, that's fine. You can sleep over there from now on. Come back after Yin Ren opens the door in the morning. Your wife can also eat here."
When Li Waner heard An Xin's words, she pouted and said:
"If you have some conscience, I won't care about drugging me in the past."
.......
After several people finished eating, Yin Ren took Qiu Sheng to practice martial arts. With his eyesight, he knew that Qiu Sheng had entered the early stage of the Yu Leap Realm. Li Waner also followed Qiu Sheng to gain some experience.
Chao Feng sat opposite An Xin and watched Li Ye, who looked depressed, putting away the dishes.
After Li Ye finished putting away the dishes and chopsticks and took them to the kitchen to wash them, An Xin said to Chao Feng:
"Have you told Yin Ren about the Nine Hell Islands?"
"I told him, but I hid something. I just told him that doing Nine Prison Island requires fighting with the prisoners every day."
"Well, when you come back this time, you should go back to Dongdao, but I'm afraid that you will be ostracized by some people after you go back. You'd better stay here with me."
When Chao Feng heard what An Xin said, he thought about it and nodded. He understood what An Xin said. Although he had contributed to Dongdao by being an undercover Xingxugong for eight years, it was inevitable that some people would doubt his loyalty to Dongdao after eight years of changes. How much is left. This thing is hard to explain.
An Xin looked at Chao Feng without saying anything and smiled:
"Xiao Chao, if you don't want a wife, as long as you ask Jinkou, I will help you get a wife."
Chao Feng looked at An Xin for a moment, and then said with a vigilant expression as if he had thought of something:
"Junior Brother An, what do you want to do?"
"Hey~ Look how nervous you are, can I still hurt you?"
"Have you done enough harm to me?"
"You loser, look at Qiu Sheng. Although he is not as strong as you and is younger than you, he is still sleeping with his wife in his arms. You have been pregnant for 25 years and have never even touched a girl's hand."
"Don't talk nonsense. I touched her hand when I was competing with a female disciple in Xingxu Palace."
"Well~ forget it, you should put your career first."
An Xin replied with a dark face.
"Don't worry, you've already said it, but I still want to hear how you came up with the idea of finding me a wife."
"It's like this. You should have seen recently that major forces are annexing medium-sized forces intentionally or unintentionally, right?"
"Hmm~ What does this have to do with me finding a wife?"
"Dongdao is also doing the same thing, but annexing the middle forces, let's just say it. If we annex them forcefully, there will inevitably be some casualties."
"So, what does this have to do with me marrying a wife?"
"The scope of Dongdao's control is the major cities in Jiangnan and the east of Jiangnan. Although it is easy for the middle forces in these places to annex them, they will never win the hearts of the people if they try hard. There are also some very powerful people among the middle forces... ....”
Before An Xin finished speaking, Chao Feng understood what An Xin meant. interrupted:
"So, you plan to let me marry a woman from a moderately powerful family."
"Well, that's right. I plan to let you marry the eldest lady of the Ye family in Hangzhou. By the way, she seems to be Li Ye's cousin. I don't know her appearance very well, but her family background should not be much different."
"Junior Brother An, do you plan to use the Ye family to suppress other middle-level forces?"
"That's not true. He is not worthy of the Ye family. It just makes those middle-level forces jealous. If you agree to marry the eldest lady of the Ye family, I, Dongdao, will take the opportunity to raise the power of the Ye family to a higher level.
When the time comes, other middle-level forces will have some ideas when they see the strength of the Ye family that has defected to Dongdao. Dongdao is leaving something in his pocket for some of the middle-level forces who contribute the most, so that they can know the truth of pleasing Dongdao like a wolfdog so that they can make a living.
You must know that the most stable relationship in the world is never suppression by force, but the most common interest relationship. "
When Chao Feng heard An An's words, he looked at An An in shock. Only now did he understand why the 19-year-old junior brother in front of him could become the evil master who scared the entire world. Ordinary people in the world might just think that An An was just relying on his martial arts skills. However, the big forces are not afraid of An Xin just because of his martial arts. Thinking about it, he said helplessly:
"Do I have a choice?"
An Xin smiled and said:
"I don't mean to embarrass you. If you don't do it, I'll let Han Yu do it."
"It's up to me. When I return to East Island this time, I have to do something so that others won't gossip."
