Chapter 37 Zhuge Yunhui and Tian Xiaodie
Chapter 37 Zhuge Yunhui and Tian Xiaodie
"Set up a treacherous formation and let those two juniors break it, brother, that's a brilliant idea!"
After hearing Zhuge Yunhui's solution, everyone's eyes lit up.
"Good lad, I never expected you to have improved so much in just a few days. Big brother, I've been watching Yunhui since he was a child, and you've really got a worthy successor!"
In an instant, everyone cast approving glances at Zhuge Yunhui. Clearly, they were all very satisfied with the solution he had proposed.
However, compared to others, Zhuge Moyun knew his son better. Immediately, his voice turned slightly cold as he asked, "Yunhui, who taught you this method?"
Upon hearing this, Zhuge Yunhui, who was enjoying the praise from his elders, stiffened slightly.
Immediately, he bowed to his father and said, "It seems nothing can be hidden from you, Father. However, I would like to ask you to grant me a request. If I reveal the name of the person who offered the plan, could you grant that person a request?"
"Tell me first, who is so intelligent that they could easily solve the problem that has been troubling us for several days?"
Zhuge Moyun said.
"Yes, father!"
After Zhuge Yunhui finished speaking, he pointed to the little girl beside him who had been keeping her head down and said, "Father, uncles, in fact, it was Xiaodie who proposed this method!"
"Tian Xiaodie!"
Upon hearing this, everyone's gaze turned to the somewhat timid little girl beside Zhuge Yunhui.
Many people have heard of this little girl. Although she is only a distant relative of the Zhuge family, she is said to be a very talented girl with a reputation for precocity.
However, since the other party was only a distant relative of the Zhuge family and a girl, not many people had ever paid much attention to her.
In fact, if it weren't for this incident, no one would have paid much attention to this little girl.
There's nothing we can do; this is the rule of Zhuge Village, which has always lived in seclusion.
"Little Butterfly?"
Zhuge Moyun looked at Tian Xiaodie, pondered for a moment, and said, "You did a good job this time, solving a problem for our Zhuge Village. Now, tell me, what are your requirements?"
Upon hearing this, a fleeting look of joy crossed Tian Xiaodie's lowered eyes.
However, when he looked up again, his bright eyes were filled with calm.
"Homeowner!"
Tian Xiaodie knelt down respectfully and said, "Xiaodie has no other requests, but only a deep yearning for the esoteric arts of our Zhuge family. I hope the family head can grant my wish!"
"What? You want to learn the esoteric arts of the Zhuge family? That's impossible!"
As soon as Tian Xiaodie said this, before Zhuge Moyun could even speak, members of the Zhuge family stood up excitedly.
“Indeed! In the Zhuge family, women have always studied Divine Strategist and men have studied Qimen Dunjia. This is a rule passed down from our ancestors. Patriarch, Tian Xiaodie has indeed made contributions to Zhuge Village this time, but the ancestral rules cannot be broken!”
"Yes, the rules passed down from our ancestors must have their reasons. Patriarch, we must not open this door!"
"..."
Everyone chimed in with their own opinions, but their sentiments were unanimous: they were firmly opposed to passing on the Qimen Dunjia techniques of the Zhuge family to Tian Xiaodie.
In an instant, Tian Xiaodie's face turned deathly pale.
In fact, she had anticipated that there would be great resistance to her learning Qimen Dunjia, but she did not expect that so many people would oppose her.
This made Tian Xiaodie, who longed for the Qimen Dunjia techniques of the Zhuge family, feel a chill in her heart.
“Father, uncles and elders, Xiaodie has made a great contribution to our Zhuge Village and deserves to be rewarded. Moreover, Father has already promised to grant Xiaodie one request. How can you go back on your word?”
Just then, Zhuge Yunhui said excitedly.
Zhuge Moyun glanced at his youngest son indifferently; how could he not know what his little scheme was?
Although Zhuge Moyun knew that Tian Xiaodie was a good girl, he thought that she would surely achieve something if she studied the Zhuge family's esoteric arts.
However, there were too many dissenting voices. Even if Zhuge Moyun was the head of the family, he could not stand against everyone.
Moreover, what everyone said is absolutely right. The rules passed down from our ancestors must have their reasons. As the head of the family, Zhuge Moyun does not want to break the rules passed down from this era.
"Alright, Tian Xiaodie, the village will not forget your contributions. Think carefully about what reward you want, and tell me when you've decided. Now, you may all leave."
Zhuge Moyun said.
"No, Father, we've already..."
Hearing that his father was going to go back on his word, Zhuge Yunhui became even more agitated.
However, before Zhuge Yunhui could continue arguing, he was stopped by Tian Xiaodie.
"Master, Xiaodie was rash. I will seriously consider it!"
After saying that, Tian Xiaodie pulled Zhuge Yunhui, who looked unwilling, away.
Looking at Tian Xiaodie's slender figure, Zhuge Moyun couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "What a pity, such good talent. Are the rules passed down from our ancestors always right?"
For the first time, Zhuge Moyun had a slight doubt about the family rules that had been passed down for thousands of years, simply because even he, the head of the family, was moved by Tian Xiaodie's talent.
……
"The scenery here is truly beautiful, and just standing here gives one a sense of peace. No wonder this family produced such an extraordinary figure as Zhuge Liang. Their mastery of Qimen Feng Shui is indeed remarkable!"
Zhao Yifan felt the air flowing and heard the rustling of the bamboo forest, which truly gave him a refreshing feeling. He couldn't help but exclaim, "Tongtong, Shuyi, what do you think about coming here every year to escape the summer heat?"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Yifan noticed that his two wives were looking at him with strange expressions.
"What's wrong? Do you guys think this place is bad?"
Zhao Yifan asked curiously.
"No, I also think this place is very nice, it's just..."
Mao Tongtong shook her head.
Meanwhile, Wei Shuyi looked at Zhao Yifan with a resentful expression and said, "Husband, last time you mentioned going to my parents' house to escape the summer heat. How come you've changed your mind so quickly? Or have you taken a fancy to that girl over there?"
"Uh, I'm innocent!"
Zhao Yifan cried out that he was wronged. He had said something unintentionally, but he never expected it to cause such a big misunderstanding.
As for the claim that they had taken a liking to the Zhuge family girl who was curiously looking at their group, that was an utter injustice.
Yes, some of them were indeed very beautiful, and they captured Zhao Yifan's heart.
But is Zhao Yifan that kind of superficial person? Is he the kind of person who can't walk past a beautiful woman?
"I presume you two are Junior Brother Zhao Yifan of the Sanyi Sect and Junior Brother Zhang Zhiwei of Longhu Mountain? My name is Zhuge Yunjin. Our patriarch invites you both to come with me!"
Just as Zhao Yifan was protesting his innocence, a pair of long legs came into his view.
"These legs are longer than my life!"
Zhao Yifan couldn't help but take a few more glances. There was no way around it; even in simple clothes, the other person's long legs were still clearly visible to be long and straight.
Even a gentleman like Zhao Yifan found it difficult to resist.
