Crazy News; Everybody Has Their Own Thoughts (8)

“Alright, you can stop saying that. Didn’t you blackmail them for a large sum back in the days? You can’t be saying that anymore.”

“What do you know! That’s her betrothal gift. How else could I get them to pay that? Have you forgotten how they sent the sedan chair over? Every time I thought about it I want to kill the Cheng’s. How they had humiliated Qin’er!”

Thinking about that, the old madam was speechless. The betrothal gift for her precious daughter was worse than that for a concubine. Of course that had greatly upset her at the time.

“Okay, stop thinking so much. Let’s see what happens in the days to come. Your daughter will always be your daughter. Nobody can change that!”

Luo Zhengde looked at his wife. He understood how she felt. After a moment he said, “Right now too many interesting parties are watching Willow Village. Let’s not go there and take part in this madness. Let’s wait till things settle down a bit before we plan our moves.”

The old madam understand the meaning of her husband’s words. If she wanted to see her daughter, she can’t rush things.

But hearing the words from her husband made her realized that he was only stubborn on the outside but soft on the inside. All said and done, it has more or less been decided that she will be visiting her daughter and grandchildren in the future

Things were more or less settled after their discussion.

Daling Town.

Inside the courtyard of Lai Yue Inn.

A thirty-something man in a brocade robe was sitting at the seat of high status. Deacon Bai, Deacon Lin, and Innkeeper Zhu all stood next to him; there were no seats for them.

He was the young owner of Lai Yue Inn and also the Lord of Green Mountain Manor. He rushed there after receiving the report from Deacon Bai.

After listening to their recount of the incident, the young lord understood that they were late in the game. But he also realized that they lucked out being late in the game; if he would have gone to Willow with those from School of Divine Condor, he wasn’t sure he would have flared any better.

“Good job, every one!” said the young lord to the three, praising them for their work.

“Thank you, young Lord!”

The three of them bowed and said at the same time.

“Speaking of, rumor had it that Cheng Biyuan and his two sons are all beast tamers, but you just told me that the Cheng’s older maiden. What is going on?”

“Well…” said Deacon Bai with a bitter smile, “Young Lord, we didn’t lie to you. We truly confirmed that the older Miss Cheng is the beast tamer. Deacon Bai and I can attest to that. As for whether Cheng Biyuan and his two sons are beast tamers, we can’t guarantee that!”

“Oh…”

The young lord frowned, “Theoretically, the others certainly didn’t spread any untruthful words; which leave us with the question that who really is the beast tamer at the Cheng’s. No way the entire family are beast tamers, that’s just ridiculous!”

“Young Lord, we are certain Miss Cheng is the beast tamer!”

After Deacon Bai finished, Deacon Lin nodded in agreement with Deacon Bai.

“Okay, let’s put aside who truly is the beast tamer!” The young lord pondered for a little while and asked again, “What’s it’s like at Willow right now? Were we able to find out what’s going on with the Cheng’s?”

“Reply young Lord, ever since the day those from School of Divine Condor had returned, no matter how many more people we’ve sent, we weren’t able to get close to Willow. There were an unbelievable amount of poisonous snakes surround them and none of our people could get through. Even if they were able to get through the walls of snakes, on the Willow side, it was further guarded by packs of wolves and tigers, each taking one side. It was quite impossible to find out what’s going on with the Cheng’s.” laughed Deacon Bai bitterly.

“Oh, is that so?” frowned the young lord, “We really couldn’t find out anything at all?”

“Well, a little bit?” replied Deacon Bai cautiously, “From what our scouts were able to gather from afar. It looked like the Cheng’s are doing some large constructions to expand the family house. The entire Willow Village are helping out!”

“Expanding?”

The young lord remained silent. After a long while, he looked up at the three waiting nearby, “Do you think you will be able to arrange a meeting with the Cheng’s?”

“Well….” Deacon Bai didn’t reply right away. After exchanging a look with both of his colleagues, he said, “Young lord, we can’t guarantee a positive outcome, but it’s worth a try. We have traded with them a few times, they think they might be willing to meet up with us.”

“Okay, I will give you three-day time. Come up with something good. I just need to be able to talk to them. Dismiss!”

“Yes, we will take off now.”

The three dared not dilly dally and left right away.

After they have retreated from the courtyard, Innkeeper Zhu asked the others cautiously, “Deacon Bai, do you really think we will succeed?”

“I have no idea. But we’ve got to give it a try. C’mon, let’s try to figure out something. Share any ideas that you have and we will take the actions together!” replied Deacon Bai.

The other two nodded and started coming up with ideas for this difficult task.

They weren’t the only ones having a headache in this town. There was also old man Ning of the Ning’s.

After the last few days, those from School of Divine Condor were driving him insane. Not only did they have to provide the with the best food and services, they also have to put up with their attitudes, even old man Ning could you escape that fate. How could he be in a good mood?!

Ko Yang, standing next to old man Ning, didn’t look any happier. They have never expected those from the well famed School of Divine Condor to behave so poorly. With the exception of the instructor and maybe two or three students, the rest all turned into the masters of the Ning’s. They certainly barked orders to everyone at the Ning’s as if they were masters of the household.

Their behaviors were no different than cuckoos taking over the host birds’ nests!

If the hosts were going insane, so were all the servants. They have all been avoiding those from School of Divine condors like they were poisonous snakes, hiding as far away as possible. But what good would that do?

They were all sent back to serve these arrogant young men and women!

The entire Ning’s was turned into a tremendous mess and there was nothing old man Ning could do other than sighing and regretting.

After all, someone of his status couldn’t afford to offend someone from School of Divine Condor, not even a student. Not to mention that his own grandson was one of them.

Now he finally understood why his kind and simple grandson and turned into such an arrogant jerk.

Being surrounded by those like that day and night could certainly have that effect on you.

If they were all like that, how could his grandson be the exception to the rule?

Thinking about that, he regretted even sending his grandson to School of Divine Condor; nevertheless, there were no such thing as a pill for regret.

Knock, knock….

Hasty knocking interrupted the two quiet men.

Ko Yang walked up to open the door right away. An urgent-looking butler busted in and said, “Master, old man Lin and the lot have arrived!”

“What, he has arrived already?” Old man Ning jumped up from his seat and walked out right away, meanwhile urging that, “Let’s go, we must go and welcome them!”
