Zhou Mingyao secretly thought to himself, ‘I want to do it, but they won’t let me. ’

Zhou's father came back from outside and could hear the conversation between mother and son as soon as he entered the house. He walked to the table, weighed the teapot on the table and poured himself a cup of tea.

"What are you talking about? What kind of Alchemy King? Has Mingyao settled the matter?"

Mrs. Zhou was angry when she saw her husband like this. She was also born from the same mother, but her husband had accomplished nothing and had to rely on others to plan for him. He also lived in poverty, leaving only this big house but not even half of it. money.

Fortunately, his sister married into the Gu family and often supported him. However, due to her brother-in-law's serious illness a few days ago, she originally wanted to lose weight and make a camel bigger than a horse. Even if her brother-in-law is gone, she can still get some of the Gu family's property.

Then he mentioned to his sister that he wanted Gu Youning to marry into the Zhou family, thinking that he would get a large dowry. Unexpectedly, a Dan King turned the tables and accepted Han Shaoyu as his disciple, and his favorite daughter-in-law candidate was gone.

Life is gradually becoming unbearable. Although he was given some money a few days ago, the salary is not enough for daily expenses. Zhou Mingyao also needs resources for his cultivation.

Speaking of which, my son was originally practicing in the Qingxuan Sect and was just sent home by the sect because of that incident. However, it was difficult to tell others about this matter, so we could only place our hope in the Gu Mansion.

"If not, I will personally go to the Gu family tomorrow to discuss it with your sister." Mrs. Zhou said with determination.

"Whatever you want, just don't forget to tell me what you bought." He said and walked straight into the inner room to rest.

Mrs. Zhou gritted her teeth when she saw her husband being so dissatisfied, and lamented in her heart that she was destined to marry into such a family.

A few days ago, the president of the Alchemist Guild came to the Gu family in person, and the Gu family's reputation reached its peak.

The elders of the Gu family did not dare to mention the Second Master's matter again. Those who originally wanted to plead for the Second Master also kept their mouths shut and did not dare to mention it again.

Mrs. Gu's wife, Zhou Qingqing, is really busy these days. There are invitations to her every day. Those who can be rejected are tried to reject them. Those who cannot be rejected can only go to the appointment.

Before, I was worried about my daughter's marriage. Now I am worried about how to find a way to refuse. Today, I dragged my tired body back to the house after socializing.

It was already sunset when I returned home. I looked at the lanterns that were lit today and asked the doorman if anyone of honor had arrived.

The doorman was frightened today and hurriedly replied:

"Back to Madam, it's King Tang Dan who is here."

When Zhou Qingqing heard that it was King Dan, she was also stunned and then started to scold the doorman.

"Why didn't you send someone to inform me about such a big thing? It's really useless." After saying this, he threw his sleeves angrily and entered the house to prepare to meet Lord Dan King.

As the head of the house, she actually neglected the guests so much. She just hoped that King Dan would not blame her. The nun beside her comforted her.

"Madam, please slow down and be careful where you step. I think Lord Dan King has been here for a long time. Maybe he doesn't want to attract attention. Besides, if I stay in the mansion today, I will make proper arrangements."

Mrs. Gu felt a little relieved after hearing what her grandma said, and decided to see the master first to ask about the situation before making any plans.

Gu Zeming had also worked hard all day and was still discussing matters with the elders in the study. He told the elders about the matters raised by King Dan and all of them expressed their agreement.

"Master, this is a good time to join the Alchemy King. With the Alchemy King's protection, our Gu family will definitely be able to compete for the position of the Imperial City family."

"That's right, and the Tang Alchemy King's status in the Alchemy Master Guild is actually higher than that of President Qin Hai. He has a bright future. This is a great opportunity that we must seize."

How could Gu Zeyan not know that this was an opportunity? However, their Gu family was currently short of manpower.

"It's just that we are short of manpower now, so we must recruit more people who know the people close to us. You can also choose reliable people from your family."

Everyone in the room was very happy. Such a good opportunity fell on them and they must choose carefully.

"Today Alchemist Han said that he would select a few more alchemy boys. Alchemy King will help check them and select the available ones for training. This matter must be arranged as soon as possible."

Will King Alchemy still accept disciples? This is a very important matter, and everything else must be pushed to the back. Being able to get the guidance of King Alchemy means that the road ahead will be a smooth one.

If everyone was happy about what happened just now, they are excited now. Everyone is excited and talking about making plans, lest they be half slower than others.

When Mrs. Gu walked to the door of the study, she heard chirping sounds in the room. She couldn't hear clearly what was being discussed inside. Seeing that they were also busy, she could only turn around and ask the housekeeper for questioning.

Butler Gu also had a tense day today, and had to endure the fatigue to report to his wife.

"Lord Dan King arrived this morning. I wanted to send someone to inform Madam that Lord Dan King stopped her. He said that he came to see his apprentice and did not want to disturb the palace. However, the master and Lord Dan King finished discussing the matter in the study."

He didn't know the specific content of the discussion. When his wife waved her hand to him, he breathed a sigh of relief and retreated to rest. It was such a tiring day.

The quarrel in the study could not produce any results for a while, so Gu Zeyan sent everyone back to think of a specific plan before discussing it. When he returned to the bedroom, he saw that his wife had returned.

"How about you go to the princess's mansion today?" He said, opening his arms and letting the lady take off his coat and hang it on the shelf.

"You also know that in the past few days, there have been posts inviting me to take You Ning to meetings. Today I found an excuse to shirk the eldest princess. I just hope that I will not anger the Gu family."

"Speaking of You Ning's proposal from the Dan King today to let her and Shaoyu settle down their marriage in the next few days. Lord Dan King is going on a long trip. This time he is here to teach Shaoyu how to refine third-grade elixirs, and he also wants to let her He will be promoted to the fourth level as soon as possible."

Mrs. Gu was also in disbelief when she heard what her husband said.

"Really? Doesn't that mean that my son-in-law will also be the Alchemy King in the future?!" His excited expression changed in just a moment,

"It's just that it's too late to get engaged in these few days. I'm afraid it's too late."

After all, it is my daughter's lifelong event, and I don't want to be so hasty.

"King Dan said that it would only be a simple ceremony between relatives, and he would wait until the big wedding to hold the ceremony. From what he said, he meant that he wanted Shaoyu to become Queen Dan before holding the wedding ceremony."

"Today the eldest princess proposed that You Ning marry her legitimate son, the prince, so I declined on the grounds that she had already announced the marriage. It is a good thing to have arranged the marriage in the past few days, but can we not keep a low profile? After all, I will inform them later. It would be less troublesome."

Gu Zeming felt that what Madam said was reasonable, so he said:

"We'll discuss it with King Alchemy tomorrow. I'm tired today and have a rest early."

The whole Gu Mansion was quiet, except Han Shaoyu's alchemy room with bright lights. The master and apprentice were refining the elixir in the room and forgot about food and sleep. Feng Yunzhao was also refining the elixir in a hurry. The basic elixir was left to the apprentice.
