Xuantian Dragon Zun

Zhou Ruoxue stepped forward nervously to see if Du Long was injured, and finally saw only a bloodstain on his arm. Du Long also found that after his physique mutated, he recovered much faster from some traumatic injuries. Most of it has healed!

"Wow! Miss Qinglian is so beautiful! No wonder that bastard Du Long smashed Zuixianglou in anger because of you!" Du Caini exclaimed on the spot after seeing Xia Qinglian's appearance clearly. Few people in the entire capital have seen Xia Qinglian true face.

After being called out by her, Zhou Ruoxue turned her attention away from her precious son, fixed her beautiful eyes on the delicate and beautiful girl Xia Qinglian, and couldn't help but stepped forward and took her hand to look him up and down.

Seeing Zhou Ruoxue hold her jade hand like this, Xia Qinglian's white as jade face flushed again, her shy appearance was really endearing!

"Okay, she really is a lovely girl! No wonder my brat went crazy because of you! Girl Qinglian, before I ransom you, I promised Princess Huofeng to take you as a righteous daughter, and she will live in my Du family from now on. No one will dare to bully you! Are you willing?" The more Zhou Ruoxue looked at the soft and beautiful woman in front of her, the more she liked her from the bottom of her heart.

Xia Qinglian raised her eyes in panic and looked at Du Long's mother, who was so noble and imposing in front of her. Her beautiful eyes soon filled with tears and she replied tremblingly: "Qinglian used to be a shady geisha in Zuixianglou! How can I bear it?" worthy of Mrs. Du's love?"

"Although I have never been to the Zuixiang Building, I have also heard that there is a girl named Qinglian who does not sell her body. Although she comes out of the mud but is not stained, you were once a famous lady, and the reason why you fell into the dust is because you can't help it. It was not what I wanted! Therefore, Miss Qinglian, don't underestimate yourself!" Zhou Ruoxue gently comforted Qinglian by patting her arm.

"This...Qinglian really can't afford it...I'm afraid that Madam Du's reputation will be ruined in the future, and Qinglian will die at that time!" Xia Qinglian looked flustered, still not daring to accept Zhou Ruoxue's kindness.

"It's better for the old man to say a few words!" Mr. Du finally couldn't help but said: "Miss Qinglian, your deceased grandfather used to have a good relationship with the old man, and he is an old friend! Your father Xia Ye is a man who dared to speak out about death. Loyal minister of Cambodia! After being a loyal minister, Miss Qinglian has no crimes. Although she stayed in Zuixianglou for a few years, she couldn't help herself. Since Du Long's mother is willing to recognize you as a righteous daughter, you Don't put it off any longer! Just accept it!"

With Mr. Du's prestige in the Du family, this opening was not a joke. It definitely represented the attitude of the entire Du family, representing the Du family's support for Zhou Ruoxue's acceptance of Xia Qinglian as a foster daughter. Tears, like broken pearls, fluttered and fell to the ground.

"Little girl Xia Qinglian thanks Mr. Du for his kindness, Mrs. Du for her kindness, and Mrs. Du for saving his life..."

"Okay, everything is fine! Qinglian, don't call me Mrs. Du anymore, just call me step-mother!" Zhou Ruoxue's beautiful eyes glistened with tears, apparently infected by Xia Qinglian, a poor girl.

"Mother-in-law!" Xia Qinglian called out obediently.

"Hey! Hehe, that's right! Remember, this will be your home from now on. Don't be polite in your own home. The foster mother will arrange for your servants to serve you. If you have any requirements in the future, just talk to them Just mention it!" Zhou Ruoxue responded with some excitement, after marrying into the Du Mansion for many years and only giving birth to one son, she dreamed of having a well-behaved and obedient beautiful daughter.

"Miss Qinglian is called mother-in-law and foster mother, so what do you want to call me?" Du Long scratched his head and muttered depressingly.

puff!

Zhou Xu, Du Caini and the others burst out laughing on the spot, looking at Du Long with a look of fun, Zhou Ruoxue took a look at his precious son and replied with a smile: "That's not easy, call him a foster brother!"

"No, no! Doesn't Miss Qinglian call herself old-fashioned? And it's very old-fashioned. I think it's better to call me by my name!" Du Long hurriedly waved his hands and refused.

"Stinky boy! It's settled like this! Don't talk nonsense to my old lady!" Zhou Ruoxue pretended to be angry with a straight face, and Du Long shrank immediately when he saw it, and could only mutter that he didn't know what he was talking about.

"Okay! It's New Year's Eve tomorrow, and I have to go to the palace to participate in the New Year's celebration early in the morning. My dear grandson, you and Cai Ni are also going to participate. It's getting late today, so I have to rest early!" Mr. Du waved He waved his hands and stood up.

"Oh, that's right! We are going to attend the New Year's celebration in the palace tomorrow. What will we do at home? Will the people from Zuixianglou send someone to arrest Sister Qinglian?" Only then did Du Long remember that there was still such a thing tomorrow. After a while, she couldn't help but speak worriedly, and Xia Qinglian also seemed a little nervous when she heard this.

"Hmph! Give Zuixianglou ten guts, and they don't dare to come to Du's mansion to rob people! If they dare to do this, old man, I will dare to send troops to level Zuixianglou!" Mr. Du waved his hand slightly disdainfully, and also Too lazy to continue talking nonsense, he turned around and went back to the inner hall where he lived.

"Du Long, Third Uncle and Third Aunt! I'm going back to rest too. Goodbye Miss Qinglian! You can come to the North Chamber to play with me often when you have time!" Du Caini got up and said goodbye, and the school captain Zhou Xu also stood up and prepared to leave. .

After the three members of Du Long's family and Xia Qinglian sent them out of the gate of the East Chamber, they turned around together!

"Qinglian! The wing you live in is next to Du Long. From now on, Xiaocui will serve you exclusively, so you can go back with the brats!" Zhou Ruoxue ordered.

"Yes! Good night, adoptive father and adoptive mother!" Xia Qinglian saluted generously.

Watching her parents go back to the room where she lived, Du Long took Xia Qinglian's jade hand and walked towards the room where she lived. Go forward with your own jade hands.

"Young master, I wonder if the emperor ever pardoned my father's crimes?" After holding back for a long time, Xia Qinglian finally took the opportunity to say what she had wanted to ask for a long time.

"This..." Du Long hesitated for a moment, he could only stop and turn around to look at her, and with a solemn face, he briefly explained the pardon that Princess Huofeng begged the emperor for many days, and finally begged to pardon her alone.

"Qinglian! Princess Huofeng almost turned against her father because of you. Don't blame her for not being able to help. Regarding the matter of your parents, I can only find a chance to save them in the future!" Du Long Looking at Xia Qinglian who looked disappointed, she added.

Shaking her head, Xia Qinglian replied softly: "Princess Huofeng and the young master's great kindness, Qinglian will always remember it in her heart forever, even if she is a slave or handmaid, she will not refuse! Qinglian also knows that Her Royal Highness has done her best, and she will do her best. There is only gratitude!"

Nodding his head, Du Long sighed softly, and continued to lead the poor woman towards the direction of the wing where he lived!

In the side room, Du Long sat cross-legged, absorbing and refining the Haotian Gangqi all night long!

For practitioners, it is normal to replace sleep with practice. It only takes a little energy to absorb and refine the Haotian Gangqi, and most of the energy is put into the state of recuperation. After a whole night, you will feel more refreshed the next day cheer up!

On the eve of dawn, it was still pitch black outside. Du Long was awakened by a light knock on the door, opened his eyes and asked in doubt, "Who is knocking outside the door?"

"My lord, I'm Qinglian! Today's New Year's Day, you should get up and take a shower at this time!" Xia Qinglian's soft voice sounded outside the door, and Du Long hurriedly got out of bed and quickly opened the door.

"Huh? Qinglian, how do you know that you have to get up and wash at this time for the New Year? It's so cold outside, hurry up and go inside!" Looking at Xia Qinglian standing in the cold wind with a basin of washing water in her hands at the door, Du Long hurriedly She let her into the room and asked suspiciously.
