Huang Ling'er said: "I don't want to see my grandparents at all now. We are engaged to be married, so there's no need. If we really go to their house, we don't know when we can come back. They will definitely make us stay there, and it will be difficult for us to leave. We have to make them happy and satisfied, then they will let you go. Otherwise, you can't leave!"
Mo Wenjie listened to Huang Ling'er say this. He shook his head and said, "You won't, will you? You say that your grandparents are so close to you? They don't want you to leave and want you to stay with them. This means that he is too close to you. As an outer niece, you can't say that you don't want to accompany your grandparents. It's not right for you to do this. After all, they are your relatives. It's normal for him to be close to you. So as this niece-in-law, it's not wrong for you to accompany them well!"
Huang Ling'er shook her head like a maraca, "It's not the same. Every time I go, I have to stay for several months, otherwise, you can't come back at all, and sometimes it's even longer. So I dare not go. Grandpa, grandma, uncle, and auntie all don't let me leave. Do you think I dare go? I stay for several months each time and when I come back, many of my friends think I've disappeared. They all ask me where you've gone. We haven't seen you for several months and we thought you might have disappeared!"
Xu Wenjuan stared at Huang Ling'er fiercely, "What are you talking about, you little kid? Is it wrong that your grandparents love you so much? If they don't love you, you can have an opinion. But since they do love you, why do you still have an opinion? What kind of foolish child are you? If you don't want to go, just don't go. But you can't say things like that. Your grandparents and uncle and auntie only treat you so well because of me being their only daughter, and because you are their only grandson. If your mom had many sisters, would they treat you this way? You have no idea what the reason is. You just talk nonsense here. You must never say anything like this in the future or people will laugh at you! Thank goodness you talked to Wenjie instead of outsiders. If you talked to outsiders like that, people would say what they think about your parents. Alright, let's go eat. I'll mention your wedding plans during our meal. We'll also decide where to hold the banquet when the time comes for your wedding. I will inform all our relatives and friends about it."
Mo Wenjie quickly shook his head, "Madam-in-law, this matter still needs discussion. Currently, I feel that we are not ready for marriage. Firstly, I haven't been formally employed. Moreover, rushing into marriage would affect our development. Grandpa wants me to become the chairman of a major immortal elixir refining organization called "One Heavy Heaven Elixir Refining Guild," but I don't want to be the chairman because being the chairman brings too many troubles. It would also hinder my training and exploration for herbs and elixirs. Furthermore, I don't want to become the chairman because I only wish to be an elixir refiner. I can join One Heavy Heaven Elixir Refining Guild, but I don't want to take on the role of its chairman!"
Huang Ling'er giggled, "If you don't want to be the chairman, then don't. Just be an elixir refiner. What's the big deal? I'll go talk to Grandpa for you. After all, being an elixir refiner gives you more freedom. You can go out for training whenever you want without being affected by other things. And as an elixir refiner, I can communicate with others. But if you're the chairman, people will definitely think your elixir refining skills are extremely high and won't dare to communicate with you. With that, it's hard to communicate with others, and it won't help your elixir refining at all. If you don't become the chairman, it will actually be very beneficial for your elixir refining skills. So I'm really willing to let you not take on this chairmanship position. It's not a big deal at all; we can discuss it with Grandpa when we go back. Don't worry about it in your heart; we really don't need to consider this matter!"
Xu Wenjuan listened to Mo Wenjie's words and nodded silently. "This son-in-law is indeed good. He doesn't care about fame and fortune, but about his own strength. This child has unlimited potential in the future. If everyone could be like him, who didn't care about reputation but only cared about strength, there would be many development opportunities. Wenjie, since you don't want to be the chairman, let Ling'er go find her grandfather in Feihuang City and tell him that you don't want to be the chairman. It's fine for you to join the elixir refining guild, but as for the chairman position, you definitely can't accept it. Just let your grandfather handle it!"
Mo Wenjie nodded and thanked his mother-in-law, "We will talk to Grandpa about this after we return. I will join the elixir refining guild but not become the chairman!"
Xu Wenjuan then asked Huang Ling'er, "Ling'er, how many days do you plan to stay here?"
Huang Ling'er looked at Mo Wenjie and said, "Currently, we want to go back today. After all, Wenjie is the ruler of that city and his sworn brothers are all waiting for him at the inn. If they don't see him, they might get worried. So we will stay here for one night, and we will return to Feihuang City in the morning!"
Xu Wenjuan listened to her daughter's words and nodded in agreement, "That's a good idea. As you said, we will stay here tonight and go back in the morning. At least, you should consider Wenjie's family members and his sworn brothers. You are all our own people, so treat Wenjie's sworn brothers as you would Wenjie. This way, your position in their hearts will be high as well. As his companion, it is essential that you build a good relationship with his family members. This will help him to get along well with everyone!"
Huang Ling'er nodded, "Mom, I know. I will treat his family members as I would treat of you. As his partner, I will definitely consider his feelings. I won't let him lose face. If that happens, it won't just be him who loses face; it would also be me, and Mother and Father, as well as Grandpa. You all would lose face because people might say you didn't raise me well enough. These are simple truths that I can understand. So please rest assured, Mom, I promise not to bring shame to your face!"
Xu Wenjuan listened to her daughter's words and nodded in satisfaction. "If you can really do that, it would not only be good fortune for Mo Wenjie, but also for me, your father, and your grandfather. People will think our family's Ling'er is very sensible and will look up to us! So please feel free to be considerate of his feelings. Your actions will not bring shame to our family!"
Huang Ling'er nodded, "Madam, I know what to do. I will definitely not bring shame to our family. After all, we are from One Heavy Heaven!"
Xu Wenjuan nodded, "Ling'er, that's good to know. Then I won't say more. Mo Wenjie, your wedding has been decided. As for the wedding date, let's discuss it with your grandfather when we go back and choose a lucky day. Then you can proceed with the wedding!"
Mo Wenjie nodded, "Everything will be as arranged by your mother-in-law!"
Xu Wenjuan smiled and nodded, "Mo Wenjie has nothing to do now. You and Ling'er can go out for a walk if you want. Since you have arrived in Phoenix City, you haven't gone for a walk. After you have walked around, you will leave early tomorrow morning!"
Before Mo Wenjie could speak, Huang Ling'er pulled Mo Wenjie along, "Madam, we'll take our leave then. We'll come back on our own later; you don't need to worry about us!"
Xu Wenjuan nodded!
Mo Wenjie nodded at Xu Wenjuan, "Madam-in-law, we'll go out now!"
Xu Wenjuan smiled and nodded!
Huang Ling'er and Mo Wenjie left the city lord's manor!
Huang Ling'er asked, "Wenjie, where do you want to go and play?"
Mo Wenjie shook his head, "I'm not familiar with Fenghuang City either, so I don't know where to go for fun. Besides, even if I did know, I'm not interested in going out to play. In fact, if there are elixir herbs somewhere, why not go there? We can have some fun while picking herbs along the way. That would be great!"
Huang Ling'er smiled at Mo Wenjie and said, "You always mention elixir herbs, it's like you're stuck in that industry!" However, there are indeed some good herbs in the east of the city for a hundred miles. I haven't been there, but I've heard that it is full of medicinal plants. Although many people have been there, some have found things while others haven't. I don't know the specifics either. I just heard about it from others. If you want to go now, we may not get much in the first place because it is too late. Let's just say we arrived at Yangquan Mountain and it is getting dark. So we won't be able to pick up any good herbs. Since other people have already been there and picked up most of the good herbs, there may not be much left for us to find. If we go in further, it could be dangerous. That's why no one dares to go in deeper and those who have gone back can only say that the monsters inside are very strong. Therefore, if you really want to go inside, let's go tomorrow morning first and see if we can find anything before leaving!
Mo Wenjie was interested after hearing Huang Ling'er's words. He wanted to see it regardless of what happened. The places with medicinal herbs were his biggest interest. Even if there were dangers, he was willing to try it. After all, since they brought up this matter, it couldn't just be left alone. Ling'er, I want to take a look. And you? Go back to the city lord's manor and accompany our mother-in-law. It will be convenient for me to come back alone. Moreover, after I get there, I'll just take a look. If there are indeed herbs worth us going for, we'll go there tomorrow. If those herbs are not worth going for, we'll just go back directly tomorrow without running around unnecessarily. What do you think?"
Huang Ling'er nodded. "Wenjie, if you want to go and take a look, then go ahead. If after you've seen it and you think it's worth going for, I'll go with you tomorrow morning. If there aren't many herbs there, then we'll just go back directly tomorrow!"
Mo Wenjie nodded, then used his flying sword to leave the city and flew towards the east. After he arrived at Yangquan Mountain, he just landed and heard someone saying, "No one can help you!"
