"Chu Lan? What are you doing in our house? Don't blame me for my bad words. You are so poor. Which one of you is worthy of my daughter? Stop thinking about it. Don't be like a toad trying to eat swan all day long!"
In the luxurious villa of the Golden Bay in Su City, a middle-aged woman looked disdainful and her words were full of sarcasm.
The young man in front of her was in his early twenties, inherited the excellent genes of his parents, and had fine features. However, in today's fresh meat age, his appearance was not outstanding, and his clothes were even more ordinary. All of them were cheap goods that were purchased online.
Chu Lan looked at the luxuriously decorated house and turned his eyes to the fat middle-aged woman.
She thought to herself, "It's not disgusting to apply such a thick powder at such an old age!"
Chu Lan had already experienced the old woman's sarcasm, as if in her eyes, poverty was the original sin. If it weren't for the sake of taking back his own things, he wouldn't have come to Qin's Family.
"Auntie Fang, I know that your Qin Family has money now. They don't look down on me, a poor country boy. But don't worry, I'm not here today for the engagement arranged by my grandfather..."
"Then what are you doing here? Do you want to borrow money?"
Before Chu Lan could finish his words, he was interrupted by Luo Fang.
She sneered and said sourly, "Chu Lan, when your parents passed away in a car accident, our Qin family helped us a lot. Later, your grandfather couldn't afford to die of an illness, and it was our old master who paid for the cremation. By the way, your family still owes us a lot of money!"
In Luo Fang's eyes, Chu Lan was a powerless orphan.
Fortunately, she tried her best to persuade the old master to cancel the children's marriage. Otherwise, her daughter would marry such a poor boy. How could she lose her face? If it was spread out, the Qin family would be laughed at.
Being ridiculed like this, Chu Lan was inevitably a little angry even if he was in a good mood.
Luo Fang was right. The Qin family had indeed helped a lot when it came to their parents. However, the Chu family had rarely helped the Qin family in the past.
Both the Chu and Qin families were well-known Chinese medicine families.
The difference was that the Chu family inherited medical skills, while the Qin family's ancestors opened medicine shops. The two families had always had a good relationship.
Although Hua Country's traditional Chinese medicine was declining day by day, in his hometown Yunlin Town, Grandpa Chulan was still a well-known old Chinese medicine doctor. In those days, he saved Qin Baichuan's life with his ancestral skill of acupuncture.
And because of that treatment, the two families had a baby's son.
However, there was always something unexpected.
When Chu Lan was ten years old, his parents were seriously injured in the hospital because of a car accident. In order to save his life, the Chu family spent all their savings in their family and even sold their ancestral home, but they were unable to return to heaven in the end.
A few years later, Chu Lan's grandfather fell down because he was too tired and couldn't get up.
At that time, the Chu family was already as poor as a wash-up.
However, the business of the Qin family's pharmaceutical shop was getting bigger and bigger. In just a few years, not only did the business become Su Cheng, but also opened a Chinese medicine company. Now, its annual turnover was more than ten million yuan.
It was not surprising that the Qin family broke off the engagement. Anyway, Chu Lan himself had not cared about this marriage in the past few years.
Qin Wei was now the apple of Qin's Pharmaceutical Industry with countless pursuers. Chu Lan, on the other hand, was just a poor boy who had just graduated from the School of Chinese Medicine and even his work income was unstable, so he could barely support himself.
Seeing that Chu Lan did not speak, Luo Fang really thought that he had come to Qin's Family to borrow money.
He said in a harsh tone, "Look at you. You are young, with hands and feet, and don't work honestly. You have been thinking of extorting the money of our Qin Family all day long. Let me tell you, the engagement didn't count, and you shouldn't use it as an excuse to ask the old master for money. Our Qin Family has done everything, and we won't give you any more money!"
Hearing this, Chu Lan snorted. "I didn't say that I want to borrow money!"
He raised his head and looked straight into Luo Fang's eyes.
Although he was poor, Chu Lan had backbone. He was still young. As long as he was willing to fight, who could say anything in the future? At least, Chu Lan could go back to his hometown Yun Lin Town. He had learned medical skills from his grandfather since he was a child, and he had practiced medicine with the Chu family for many years. So it was not a problem for him to have a good meal.
However, Chu Lan was not here to argue today.
He said directly, "When the two families got engaged, grandpa once gave the Qin family a purple moon jade ring as a token, which was passed down from the Chu family. Today, I came here to take back the things belonging to the Chu family."
Luo Fang was stunned. She remembered that there was indeed such a purple jade bangle in Qin Baichuan's hand. When she was a child, Qin Wei had worn it for a few years. Later, a master saw that this jade was extraordinary and wanted to buy it at a high price, but was rejected by Elder Qin.
Since then, Qin Baichuan had been fond of the purple moon jade ring.
Luo Fang looked down on Chu Lan and thought to herself that this poor boy was not worthy of having a purple moon jade ring. Moreover, that thing was worth millions of dollars!
So she said, "The broken jade you mentioned was thrown away by the Qin family a long time ago."
"Throw it away?"
Chu Lan's face suddenly changed.
Luo Fang snorted and interrupted her conscience, "Ziyu is just a piece of cake. How much is it worth? I'll pay you at most."
As she spoke, she took out 5,000 cash from her handbag.
Chu Lan's face darkened. He was not a fool. Obviously, Luo Fang not only did not want to return the purple moon jade ring, but also planned to send him away with a few thousand yuan.
Even if the purple jade ring was worthless, it was still an ancestral object of the Chu family.
How could Chu Lan let it go just like that!
He said, "I want to see Old Master Qin and ask him about it face to face. I don't believe that he will throw away the Purple Moon Jade Ring."
"See what?"
Luo Fang threw a stack of money in front of Chu Lan and snorted, "Can you see the old master just because you meet him? Hurry up to take the money and leave. Don't stay here to get in the way. If you don't leave now, I'll ask the security guards in the community to kick you out!"
Chu Lan was completely angry!
Unexpectedly, Luo Fang did it so cruelly.
It was not a big deal for the Qin family to break off the engagement, but she even wanted to swallow the engagement pledge of the Chu family.
At this time, a 17-year-old girl came down from the villa building. She was tall and beautiful. She came to Chu Lan with a sandalwood box in her hand.
Although they had not seen each other for many years, Chu Lan knew that the beautiful girl in front of him was Qin Wei.
When they were children, they often played together.
Later, after the accident of Chu Lan's parents, he rarely saw Qin Wei again. Now, Qin Wei had grown up, and Chu Lan had grown up.
But at this moment, the two of them met each other, but they were like strangers.
Qin Wei put down the box in her hand and said indifferently, "Chu Lan, there are many people in the world who are better than you. I can't give up my happiness because of you. This is the Ziyu of your family. I will return it to you now. From now on, I, Qin Wei, have nothing to do with you."
Qin Wei's eyes fell on Chu Lan, and there was no emotion in her eyes.
In fact, Qin Baichuan had been hesitant about the withdrawal of marriage. After all, Chu Lan's grandfather saved his life, and this marriage was proposed and personally arranged by Qin Baichuan.
Over the years, Qin Wei had been persuading her grandfather.
She and Chu Lan belonged to two different worlds. Beside her, there were too many suitors who were a hundred times better and a thousand times better than Chu Lan. They were either Young Masters of rich and powerful families in Su City or elites in the business world.
Compared with them, Chu Lanwen was not worth it.
Moreover, Qin Wei, who had been accustomed to the extravagant life, would not allow herself to marry an unremarkable, ordinary and incompetent poor boy.
The so-called baby's relative was simply a joke in her eyes.
Chu Lan did not care about Qin Wei's expression and tone. In his heart, he had already given up this marriage. No matter how beautiful Qin Wei was, it had nothing to do with him.
The purpose of Chu Lan's visit today was to get back his own things.
He picked up the sandalwood box and glanced at Luo Fang.
Luo Fang suddenly looked terrible and snorted with a dark face. "Now that you've got it, get out of here! Don't come back to our house in the future. You're not welcome here!"
Chu Lan frowned, but finally endured it.
He opened the sandalwood box with one hand and saw the purple moon jade ring belonging to the Chu family. He could not help but let out a sigh of relief. Although his grandfather and parents did not know why the Chu family attached so much importance to the purple moon jade ring and the Xuyang jade bead Chu Lan wore, as long as it was an ancestral object of the Chu family, it must not fall into the hands of outsiders.
To Chu Lan's surprise, there was another bank card in the sandalwood box.
Qin Wei said on the side, "There is a 100,000 balance in the card, which is my personal compensation for you. From now on, you and I don't owe each other anything."
Hearing this, Luo Fang was so angry that her face turned green. She didn't expect that her daughter would compensate Chu Lan with 100,000 yuan.
"Don't make up for it. Did the Qin family owe the Chu family?"
With this, Luo Fang reached out to take back the bank card. Unexpectedly, at this time, Chu Lan put away the purple jade ring, and then put the sandalwood box and the bank card back on the table without moving.
He looked up and said to Qin Wei, "We don't owe each other anything!"
After that, Chu Lan turned and left.
Looking at Chu Lan taking away the purple moon jade ring and gradually walking away, Qin Wei finally understood one thing, but somehow, a trace of inexplicable regret rose in her heart.
Perhaps, it was because of some childhood memories.
Qin Wei got rid of that messy thought. In her eyes, Chu Lan could never be compared with her pursuers. Even if the Chu family did not decline, it was not comparable to the Qin's Pharmaceutical Industry that was on the flourishing day.
Chu Lan and she were destined to be in different worlds!
On the roof of the villa, Qin Baichuan watched Chu Lan walk away and let out a long sigh.
"Old woman, I'm sorry for you!"
All of a sudden, he started coughing violently. The more he coughed, the more intense his cough became.
When the cough stopped, Qin Baichuan opened his hand, and suddenly his face turned pale. What came into his sight was a piece of scarlet blood, which was shocking.
。。。。。
After taking back the purple moon jade ring, Chu Lan felt much more relaxed.
When he returned to the rental room, he took down the Dark-sun Jade Pearl worn on his neck from childhood and put it with the purple moon jade ring. He studied it carefully.
The purple jade ring was not round, but a new purple jade ornament in the shape of a crescent. Its size was about the same as that of the Xuanyang Jade Pearl. No matter how they looked at each other, they could not be connected together. But intuition told Chu Lan that these two ancestral jade ornaments should be a pair.
"How can this thing be put together and pieced together?"
Chu Lan was studying how to play with it. Suddenly, her fingertips were poked by something inexplicable, and then a strange scene appeared.
As a trace of blood seeped out, the jades were dyed on the purple moon jade ring and the mysterious Yang jade beads. The two pieces of jade began to glow with a strange light, and then began to buzz and tremble, jumping up on the table.
Suddenly, the purple jade ring turned into purple light, and the Dark Sun Jade Pearl turned into golden light, shooting at Chu Lan's glabella at the same time.
boom! boom! boom! boom! boom! boom!
Chu Lan's mind was shocked, and there was a faint echo of vicissitudes between heaven and earth. "The people who have got the inheritance are all of Chu Sect's bloodline!"
"Chu Lan, you are the successor of the thirty-ninth generation of our Chu Sect. Now I'm going to teach you the Huntian Skill of Chu Sect, the Golden Sun and Moon Needle Technique, and the Five Elements Flower Technique to help you purify your muscles and marrow and change your fate in defiance of the natural order!"
