Chapter 259: It's hard to win at this time, only family happiness
After eating all the fried tofu at an altitude of thousands of miles, Mo Ran swaggered back to the hill, while Hu Zhaigong followed behind him with a frown, tears in the corners of his eyes and a melancholy look on his face, like a beautiful girl who was bullied by a bully.
Sasayuri, who was standing at the door, saw the strange man and demon coming back together, as well as the expressions on the white-haired fox's face, and lowered her head in panic.
Mo Ran glanced at the white-haired fox, then walked away and went to the cast iron room.
Looking at Lei Dianying who didn't dare to look him in the eye, Mo Ran said, "Ying, today is not a good day to forge swords. You should go to Zhen's place."
"But I really want to forge a sword." Lei Dianying looked at the anvil and the rock hammer leaning on it, his hands seemed to be grasping something, with his fingers slightly bent.
Mo Ran shook his head and said, "You are not in a good condition to fight with a sword. Just listen and take a rest."
"Well... okay." Lei Dianying left with his head down. Before walking out of the cast iron room, he took a deep look at the back of the man in black clothes, and then he walked away.
After staying there for a while, Mo Ran walked out of the cast iron room and came to Lei Dianzhen's door. Just as he was about to raise his hand to knock on the door, he heard the voice of Hu Zhaigong from inside.
It was still Husaigong who cried, with snot and tears, and said in a hoarse and trembling voice: "Zhen, do you know? He is not a good person at all, he is not a human being at all!"
"I couldn't struggle just now. I could only watch him... Wuuwuwu, a full one hundred and sixty-eight times. One hundred and sixty-eight!"
"Every time it was so torturous, every time I felt so much pain, as if my body was being torn apart, it was no longer my own body, wuwuwu."
Lei Dianzhen gently comforted him: "It's okay, brother will take responsibility. He is actually a very gentle person. If he knew that he had caused you such a great harm, he would definitely compensate you!"
"Yes, compensation, he must compensate, double, oh no, triple, five times! He must repay me for all the suffering I have endured this time!" Kitsuzhaigong said, and suddenly slapped the floor, his fighting spirit high.
Mo Ran, who was outside the door, became more darker with every word he heard. Now he was as gloomy as an abyss, exuding an extremely cold aura. He knocked on the door gently.
"Wait a moment." Lei Dianzhen got up and opened the door, and saw his brother with a smile as bright as spring breeze. He asked in surprise, "Why are you here, brother?"
Since Lei Dian really loves reading all kinds of ancient books, Mo Ran seldom comes over, for fear of disturbing her reading. Originally, he just planned to let her go to enlighten Lei Dian, but he didn't expect to get an unexpected gain.
But it seemed that Lei Dianying didn't listen to him and went back to his room.
Mo Ran said softly, "I originally wanted Zhen to counsel Ying, but since the culprit is here, let's talk about it!"
Kitsusai Palace kicked the floor with his legs and slowly backed away, his voice trembling: "Uh, haha, um, what are you doing? I wasn't talking nonsense just now, you did it just like that, I..."
"Shut up!" Mo Ran scolded, narrowing his eyes and saying, "Isn't it just eating your fried tofu? Listen to what you said. If you were not looking for the truth today but for the shadow, where would you put my reputation? And where would you put your own reputation!"
"I came here because I knew he wouldn't think of anything wrong!" Hu Zhaigong looked at the man in black who was gradually approaching, and put his arms in front of him, protecting his proud thing tightly.
"Really? Then pay it back double, pay it back in full?"
"You ate my food, shouldn't you pay me back? Wuuwuwu... those were a total of 168 skewers of fried tofu, and you ate them all. What should I do?"
"Okay, okay, I'll return it to you later. The important thing now is to get Ying back on track." Mo Ran said, looking at the gentle woman in white.
Lei Dianzhen instantly understood what her brother meant and went to her sister's room. From everything that had just happened, she had deduced the whole picture of the matter.
But why did my brother think she understood this? Could it be that when they just met for a few days, her actions were already clearly seen through by him...
…………
After Lei Dianzhen's persuasion, Lei Dianying finally came out of that strange state and returned to his former self, but his eyes still looked dazed from time to time.
Naturally, all the blame should be placed on the head of Hu Zhai Palace, so Mo Ran limited the amount of fried tofu she could eat every day, which dealt a heavy blow to the white-haired fox and made her miserable.
Although Mo Ran is not the only one who can make fried tofu, Hu Zhaigong feels that fried tofu that is not made by Mo Ran lacks a kind of soul, a kind of flavor that people can eat over and over again without getting tired of it.
At the table with two demons and two gods, Kitsai Palace looked at the two empty skewers on his plate, looked at the man in black with tears in his eyes, and whispered, "Can I..."
"No." Mo Ran interrupted before he could finish his words.
"But, fried tofu is really delicious. Can't you give me another stick? Just one stick will do!" Hu Zhaigong's eyes were filled with tears, as if he was about to cry.
Mo Ran was unmoved, and didn't even look at it, saying: "Ying stopped using this trick of yours three hundred years ago. It doesn't work on me!"
Hearing this, Hu Zhaigong's eyes flashed, and then he stood up and walked to the side of the man in black, breathing out orchid breath, with seductive eyes, like a charming red flower, and slowly approached.
But when it was almost three feet, it was blocked by a wind barrier. Mo Ran sat there motionless as a mountain, and continued to pick up food for himself with his chopsticks, completely unaffected.
Seeing this, Kitsaigong turned around and stood behind the man in black, holding the wind barrier tightly with his hands and legs, and asked seductively: "Has Ying used this trick before?"
"That's not the case." Mo Ran took a mouthful of rice, chewed it for a few times and swallowed it, then said, "But there was a person who behaved the same way as you do now. I knocked her out and left her in an alley. Do you want to try?"
"Of course I don't want to, but for the sake of fried tofu, it is worth it even if there are thousands of difficulties and dangers! Today, although I am dizzy, I am still loyal to fried tofu!" Hu Zhaigong shouted to the sky.
"It's hopeless." Mo Ran shook his head and ignored her. With the wind barrier around, she couldn't touch him anyway. It would be a shame not to eat the food on the table.
Lei Dianying, who was sitting next to him, picked up a string of tri-color dumplings. After tasting one, his mood and expression became very good. However, he felt a little curious about what the man in black had just said.
After she swallowed the second dumpling, she asked, "What happened next? How did that person become? Why did he bother my brother?"
Ever since reading the novel, Lei Dianying has become so eager to get to the bottom of a matter in order to know the full picture.
Mo Ran thought for a while, then slowly said, "Later, her father came to me to propose marriage, saying that his daughter had admired me for a long time and hoped that she could get married."
"So has brother agreed?" Lei Dianying held a string of new dumplings in one hand and supported his chin with the other, eager to know the follow-up.
"Of course not. I already had your sister-in-law at that time, so why would I bother with other girls? After that, she must have been confined by her father. Anyway, I have never seen her again." Mo Ran put down the empty bowl and chopsticks and spread his hands.
"Uh, do people there have such weird habits? They're already married but they still cling to him." Lei Dianying couldn't help but be stunned. Although there were many such plots in the novel, it was just a novel after all. It was completely different from hearing the facts told by others.
"Who knows? I guess she's been pampered too much since she was a child and has never seen anyone who disobeys her, so she wants to try to conquer her and satisfy her own vanity!" Mo Ran folded his sleeves and said lightly.
"Well, I don't understand. People like this are either mentally ill or have evil hearts!" When Lei Dianying heard that his brother was being harassed, he inexplicably felt resentful.
Even Lei Dianzhen, who was always gentle as water, chimed in: "If a person doesn't know what's good for him, he's no different from a wild animal. A mouse has skin, but a human has no manners. What's the point of not dying?"
Mo Ran looked at Lei Dianzhen, who was usually gentle in his bones, but at this moment showed his sharp edge. If it was Lei Dian, it would be fine, but even Lei Dianzhen was a little furious.
What Takiya did is truly outrageous to both God and man.
Mo Ran waved his hand and said, "Forget it, forget it. There's no need to get angry about this. Don't ruin your mood for the whole day."
"But I just feel so depressed!" Lei Dianying pouted and moved his legs randomly under the table.
Mo Ran pointed at the fox behind him and said with a faint smile: "Isn't there a fox demon here who has done something useful? Just let her practice sword skills with you later!"
"Hey, hey, you are abusing your power for personal gain. I don't agree. I absolutely refuse to accept this duel!" The fox ears of Kitsai Palace trembled violently, and he bared his teeth, thinking that he was very fierce.
"Refusal is invalid!" Mo Ran threw Hu Zhaigong into the yard with an elemental force, and Lei Dianying, holding a string of dumplings, also flashed and appeared in the yard.
The three people at the dinner table hit it off and moved the table under the eaves. They ate fruit after dinner while watching this one-sided battle drama.
Lei Dianzhen raised his hands and clapped, shouting happily: "Come on, Ying!"
Tengu Sasayuri, who had been silent the whole time, watched this scene and clapped her hands vigorously to cheer, which showed how much resentment she had towards the fox.
Seeing this scene, Mo Ran was stunned. Could it be that he was too immersed in the role and really treated the Fox Palace as that thing? How about asking someone?
"Zhen, don't you usually get along well with Hu Zhaigong? Why do you look like you have avenged yourself now?" Mo Ran asked.
Lei Dianzhen stopped clapping, tucked up his temples that had just fallen, and said, "Because usually Hu Zhaigong does not touch the bottom line of principles, but today she was unlucky and wanted to cross the line, so I had to teach her a lesson."
Sasa Yuri, who was standing by, also nodded in agreement.
"Bottom line?" Mo Ran glanced at the gentle woman in white clothes. From what happened just now, the bottom line that cannot be touched in these words should be himself.
Unexpectedly, he would have someone help him get back his wrongs, and they were his two younger sisters whom he had raised. The world is truly wonderful.
It's good like this now, it's hard to get any better... Unless the whole family is reunited, friends gather together, and I walk into the wedding hall with Eula immediately, there is nothing else that can beat this feeling and this matter, there is no time to say goodbye, and it can beat this moment.
