TWQQF ch 60.1 - Big Deal (4)


Those in the courtyard enjoyed the tea leisurely. Just as Cheng Xiao Xiao had said, this tea was made with the mythical spring water and was therefore mythical. They were definitely better than any expensive tea one could get on the market. The tea quelled everyone’s irritation and vexation.

The visitors were no longer anxious; Cheng Xiao Xiao definitely was not anxious; Mrs. Cheng inside the house was tormented by anxiousness. She had no idea what her oldest daughter had in mind.

Time of an incense had passed before Long Yuze put down the cup in his hand. A hint of approval could be seen in Cheng Xiao Xiao’s eyes.

“Miss Cheng, I have a request. Is it possible for us to take a look at this mythical spring of yours?” asked Long Yuze.

After his words, everybody looked at Cheng Xiao Xiao with anticipation.

“Why not?” Cheng Xiao Xiao cast them a glance. Placing her tea cup down, she stood up, “Let’s go!”

Cheng Xiao Xiao took them out of the courtyard and headed toward the back of the house.

As soon as they have arrived at the back of the house, everybody saw the villagers drawing water from the well. They were a little surprised. Xu Zhengyang, who was standing next to Mu Qingtong, blurted out, “What are they drawing mythical water for?”

The same question that everybody had in mind, but since he was with Ning Xunzong, Cheng Xiao Xiao ignored him and kept on walking.

Her ignoring Xu Zhengyang had upset Mu Qingtong even more. Xu Zhengyang was a bit embarrassed, as one of the oldest students at Divine Condor, he was always well respected. He was angry at being ignored by one village maiden, but dare not let his feeling shown.

The other three were well aware of the animosity between Cheng Xiao Xiao and Divine Condor. They were secretly happy that the usually arrogant Divine Condor was being taken down a notch, but they dare not let their enjoyment shown.

“Miss Cheng, are they irrigating the bamboo forest with the mythical water?” Xue Xingchen had an idea already.

Needless to say, the others always saw it clearly. They saw the three villagers taking turns drawing water and watering the bamboos. Everybody could clearly see the villagers actions.

Before Cheng Xiao Xiao could respond to him, Cheng Zheng Yuan stopped drawing water and ran toward his older sister, “Big sister, you are here!” Then looked at all the visitors alarmingly.

The others did not pay particular attention to him. They figured out he was Cheng Xiao Xiao’s brother from his words. Certainly it was an accomplishment to be martial scholar at his age, but no where close to being a genius.

“Come and take a look!” Cheng Xiao Xiao nodded and said to the villagers, “Liu dashu1, Liu dabo2, Danhuang, why don’t you take a break?”

“Okay!”

The villagers weren’t sure what was going on, but seeing Cheng Xiao Xiao bringing her “special guests”, they retired to their break.

As soon as the villagers stepped away, all the “special guests” rushed forward and surrounded the mythical well and examined it skeptically. The thick feel of mythicalness had already confirmed what they wanted to know – The Cheng’s, indeed, has in their possession a mythical well. The rumor had been confirmed.
