Chapter 1029: Chen Family Courtyard (Part 2)

Even though Xu Changqing left the Chen family for many years, the matter about Xu Changqing has never disappeared. Instead, it gradually evolved into a mythical legend. Almost every old man in the Chen family can tell some magical stories about the owner of Taohua Mountain Yi Manor back then. Chen Jingde can be said to have grown up by listening to these magical stories.

Although Chen Jingde had never seen Xu Changqing, he heard a lot of casual stories about the owner of Taohuashan Yizhuang from his father when he was a child, and he was not unfamiliar with Xu Changqing. The owner of the Yizhuang family has a very special status in the Chen family. Most of the people at the bottom just think that it is just a corpse view. However, only a few core children of the Chen family who know the truth know what the owner of the Yizhuang is in the Chen family. It is no exaggeration to say that the position, prestige, and even power of the Chen family cannot be compared with the owner of the Yizhuang family. Sometimes, no matter how the Chen family lobbies, it cannot make decisions within the Chen family. The owner of the Yizhuang family only needs to send a sentence.

When the Chen family's property in China was gradually lost and the Chen family began to become dilapidated, many elderly people in the Chen family sighed more or less in their hearts that if the owner of the charity house was there, the Chen family would not have declined so much that even China could not gain a foothold, and eventually embarked on the road of leaving their hometown.

Facing Chen Jingde's re-question, Xu Changqing was very patient and asked: "I guess you should have kept the amulet I gave to your grandfather back then?"

Hearing this, Chen Jingde had already believed in Xu Changqing's identity, because only the owner of the Yi Manor, Xu Changqing and his grandfather, knew about the amulet. After the amulet was passed down as a family heirloom, he also learned the origin of the amulet from his father. Now Xu Changqing asked about the amulet, which was equivalent to a proof. Even if the person in front of him was not Xu Changqing himself, he might also be a person with a good relationship with Xu Changqing.

Chen Jingde's mind appeared in his mind that he had heard all kinds of magical things about Xu Changqing since he was a child. His expression immediately became particularly excited, and he nodded repeatedly and said, "Here, here! That amulet has been preserved and used as my family heirloom." As he said that, he pushed Chen, who was still confused, and said, "Hurry, go to the puppy's room and bring him over. Show Mr. Xu."

Chen did not understand what was going on. He was confused since the conversation just now. After hearing her husband's orders, he could only walk to the cottage beside him like a puppet, picked up his sleeping son and took him to the room.

The little guy was very angry about being disturbed from sleep. His fat and tender little hands rubbed his eyes that could not be opened, and then he started crying loudly. No matter how his mother coaxed him, he couldn't stop. However, what makes people wonder is that when the little guy was brought to Xu Changqing, the harsh cry immediately stopped. The little guy widened his big round eyes, looked at Xu Changqing, opened his mouth and laughed.

"It seems that the little dog is destined to be with his husband, so why would he get close to him and cry and laugh!" Seeing this, Chen immediately said something appropriate. Although she still doesn't quite understand what happened, her intuition tells her that it is correct to have a good relationship with Xu Changqing.

Xu Changqing did not care about Chen's polite words. He also knew very well why the baby was approaching him and stopped crying. That was because the baby was carrying the amulet he gave to Chen Jingde's grandfather. The child was very bright and dark about the changes in the spiritual energy of the outside world. He was already familiar with the magic power in the amulet, and naturally he was very kind to the source of the magic power breath of Xu Changqing.

Xu Changqing reached out and pulled the red rope hanging around the child's neck, pulling out a slightly rough mahogany amulet from his arms. Seeing this amulet, Xu Changqing couldn't help but sigh that this amulet was his earliest practice. The talisman and magic circle on it now seem very rough. Even so, he still felt extremely happy after successfully making this amulet back then, even if it was still fresh in memory for so many years.

There are not many such amulets, only twenty-eight. Because it is a hand-practice work, except for one or two left for souvenirs, the other mahogany amulets were almost destroyed by him, but three were given to three people with good relationships by him, and Chen Jingde's grandfather was one of them.

Chen Jingde's great-grandfather was the waiter of the inn at the Chen Family Chong, and was responsible for paying attention to the outsiders in the inn for the Chen Family, which was to serve as the eyes and ears of the Chen Family. At that time, Xu Changqing's mother committed suicide in the inn, and was the first to discover and save him. Chen Jingde's great-grandfather ran to the mountain to find Xu Changqing's master to save the person. Although he failed to save Xu Changqing's mother's life, Xu Changqing survived. Therefore, it can also be said that Chen Jingde's great-grandfather was Xu Changqing's life savior.

After Xu Changqing was accepted as a disciple by his teacher and became the next owner of the Yi Manor, Chen Jingde was promoted by the Chen family because of this kind of life-saving relationship. He was promoted from an inconspicuous family to a lower-level servant to a manager of the Chen family compound in Tongxian County.

Chen Jingde's great-grandfather knew that it was impossible to manage such a large garden as the Chen Family Courtyard in Tong County with his own ability, so he refused to take charge of the position of manager and gave the opportunity to his son. His son was sent to the Chen Family Private School in Chen Jiachong, specifically to receive the training of the Chen Family. In addition to studying Taoism in the mountains, Xu Changqing would also go down the mountain from time to time to learn various secular classics in the Chen Family Private School. Because of the grace of saving his life, he had a good relationship with Chen Zude's grandfather, and he could say a few words. Later, when Chen Jingde's grandfather was successful in his studies and was transferred to the Chen Family Courtyard in Tong County, Xu Changqing gave him a hand-practice work as a farewell gift.

Yesterday, Xu Changqing came to the vicinity of the capital along the railway. He did not enter Beijing immediately, but stopped in Tongxian, mainly for the Chen family courtyard. However, he came to the Chen family courtyard for another thing to find something, not for Chen Jingde, but when he arrived at the main entrance of the Chen family courtyard in the early morning, a strange feeling arises in the dark. When he followed the feeling and found Chen Jingde lying by the pond, he rescued him.

At this time, Xu Changqing realized that the feeling of bringing him over came from a deep-rooted karma of cause and effect. The other end of this karma of cause and effect was actually a middle-aged man who had never met before, which made him a little confused. This doubt was not until he found Chen Jingde's close relative through calculation methods, and then came to Chen Jingde's home in the Chen family compound that he vaguely understood the reason for cause and effect. Saving Chen Jingde himself was also repaying the cause and effect.

When Xu Changqing was holding the amulet and feeling moved, the Chen couple didn't say anything, and looked at Xu Changqing quietly. As for the spiritual little guy, he was also very quiet and did not make trouble.

After a while, Xu Changqing recovered and said to the Chen family apologetically: "I just felt moved when I saw what I did when I was young, so I made you wait for a long time." As he said that, he nodded with satisfaction and said, "Not bad! Very good! Your three generations of grandparents and grandchildren have taken good care of things, without any trace of old age. From the skin color on the surface, you often take him out and play with it."

"My father does often take it out and play with it. When he said that when he was playing, a force would be transmitted from the amulet, which made people's minds look particularly clear and could communicate with problems that they had always been unable to understand before." Perhaps because of the power sent by Xu Changqing to him, or perhaps because he was extremely excited to see a legend of living, Chen Jingde now felt that the pain on his body had weakened a lot, and he became more energetic and very talkative. "I got this heirloom a little late. Because I had to work in the field for many years, I rarely took it out to play with it. Later, after the puppy was born, I simply passed the things to the puppy."

Xu Changqing did not return the amulet back immediately, but gently wiped the surface of the amulet with his thumb under the gaze of the Chen family. Then, he saw a faint light appearing on the surface of the amulet. The amulet that originally looked extraordinary became dull and uneven, and looked like a piece of wood made of rotten wood that he picked up casually.

Seeing this, the Chen couple were both surprised, both of which were surprised by the light that had just appeared, and that the amulet became so ordinary.

Before the Chen couple could express their questions, Xu Changqing took the initiative to explain: "The talisman before was too eye-catching. It would be inappropriate for people to see it in this period. Moreover, this talisman has been used for so many years. Although you have maintained it properly, the effect cannot be compared with that of that year." As he said that, he handed the modified amulet to Chen Jingde and said: "Do you see if it is suitable?"

Chen Jingde took the amulet, and before he could take a closer look, he felt a heat flow of amulet transmitted to his hands, and then passed it to various parts of his body along his arms. All the illnesses on his body were weakened to the extreme, and he became extremely relaxed.

"Master, what's wrong with you? Why are you sweating so much?" Chen saw her husband holding the amulet in his hand, and then a lot of sweat came out of his pores at a speed visible to the naked eye. Soon he became wet as if he was crawling out of the water.

"It's okay, it's okay! I'm fine! It's very good!" Chen Jingde shook his head and signaled his wife not to be nervous. Then he handed over the amulet and said, "Hurry, put it on the puppy."
