Chen Chuan has been busy enough these days, and he has visited almost every family with girls in the Chen family these days.

After some selection, there are more than 500 qualified girls, including his daughter, Chen Xue'e!

On this day, in an empty hall, more than five hundred girls were called together.

For a time, the warblers and swallows in the hall, all kinds of delicate voices, and the graceful innocent women carved jade, it is really a man's paradise...

"Did you hear what the elders called us here for?" asked a woman in the crowd to another woman beside her.

"Hmm... I don't know, it's said to be related to the senior invited by our family!"

"Ah, has something to do with that senior, but I heard that that senior has sat down with our family's Hakka ancestor!"

"That's right, in a while, the family will hold an ancestor worship ceremony, haven't you seen that the statue of the senior in the square has been carved?"

"It's related to that senior..."The woman muttered, and then her eyes showed a look of surprise, "I see that senior is young, is there no Taoist companion yet?

The other woman's eyes also lit up.

"Yes, yes, you have a point. ”

"Shut up. At this time, a senior of the Chen family who was in charge of affairs scolded them, glanced at the two of them, and said lightly, "Choose a Taoist couple? What kind of character do you think of, what kind of character is the ancestor, and you juniors in the Qi period also want to be his Taoist companions." ”

The two women were startled, and when they heard the man scolding, they quickly lowered their heads carefully.

The man looked at them again and turned to leave.

Not long after he left, the two women immediately raised their heads, stuck their tongues out at the man's back, and made a grimace, showing mischievous meaning.

"Xue'e, it's your father who is presiding over this this time, don't you know what he's doing?" In the crowd, a girl stood with Chen Xue'e and asked curiously.

"Eh, why are you asking so much? You will know after a while, don't you see that the elder just now is so strict, you still dare to ask!" Chen Xue'e glanced at the Chen family elders who had already walked away, and said to the girl beside her with disgust.

"If you don't ask, don't ask!" the girl pouted.

Chen Xue'e was obviously carefully dressed today, wearing a silver embroidered gauze skirt and a cyan jade belt tied around her slender waist, revealing her almost perfect delicate figure.

She was already extremely beautiful, and her face was slightly powdered, which made her look beautiful and refined, and against the backdrop of many women, she was like a flower blooming in the grassland, standing out from the crowd.

It didn't take long for Chen Chuan, who had a warm face, to walk in.

The laughter in the venue also came to an abrupt end with his arrival.

With a smile on his face, Chen Chuan walked to the front of the crowd.

Glanced at it

Fang, then turned to the person next to him and asked, "Are they all here?"

"Here we are! There are five hundred and thirty-one people, all here. The man answered.

Chen Chuan nodded and turned to look at the girl in the field.

"I don't think you know why you were called here today. ”

More than 500 girls immediately turned their heads and looked at each other, all showing a hint of confusion, only Chen Xue'e's beautiful eyes flashed with fine light.

Chen Chuan smiled.

"There is a good thing today, I think you all know that our Chen family worshiped Senior Ji as the ancestor of Keqing, and the ancestor was still very unfamiliar to us when he first came to the extreme south, so our family decided to choose a maid for the ancestor. ”

As soon as these words came out, the silent venue immediately became noisy.

"Huh, be a maid?"

"Eh, I thought I was a Taoist couple, even if I was a concubine, I was willing, how could I choose a maid!"

"That's it, why do you want to be a maid, I don't do it!"

Chen Chuan saw the expressions of many girls in the field, and he was not surprised, after all, they were the children of the Xiuxian family, and their identities were much more noble than mortals, so some people were naturally unwilling to let them be pampered as maids.

"Don't make any noise! ”

At this time, a fierce and vicious man shouted on the side.

There was silence again.

Chen Chuan smiled faintly, "I think you must be reluctant, but we don't force it, if you don't want to, you will leave immediately." ”

As soon as the words fell, there was a sudden silence in the venue.

A moment later, a delicate voice sounded, "If we leave, will the family punish us?"

Chen Chuan shook his head with a smile.

Seeing that Chen Chuan said that he would not be punished for leaving, many girls were relieved, and then some people withdrew.

Some girls were still hesitating and couldn't get their minds right, but as soon as they were pulled by the people around them, they followed the people around them.

Chen Chuan waited quietly, still smiling and groaning.

After a stick of incense, more than half of the people in the venue were reduced.

Seeing that no one had withdrawn, someone first pointed to the remaining girls and checked.

"One, two, three, four、.... One hundred and five, one hundred and six.... ”

After a while, the man arched his hand at Chen Chuan, "Elder, a total of one hundred and thirty-four people remained. ”

"Hmm!" Chen Chuan nodded.

The faces of the only remaining girls in the field swept over one by one, and suddenly he raised his eyebrows and landed on Chen Xue'e's body, and his eyes rolled and turned away.

"Although it is to select servants for the ancestors, but there is only one quota, and the conditions are relatively harsh, not only to check your spiritual root qualifications, appearance, but also to be proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, poetry and songs, now you feel that you are deficient immediately, so as not to waste time. ”

The woman left in the venue listened to it

It's just a matter of choosing a maid, and it's so complicated that immediately another conversation broke out, and someone immediately withdrew.

All of a sudden, there were only more than 50 girls left in the venue, but when they saw Chen Xue'e who stood out from the crowd, more than 20 left, and the venue, which was still full of flowers, immediately became depressed, and there were only more than 30 girls left.

Chen Chuan nodded, swept into the field, walked forward, walked in front of many girls, and nodded from time to time to signal them to leave.

When he walked in front of Chen Xue'e, Chen Chuan paused, glanced at Chen Xue'e, who had been carefully dressed, and smiled meaningfully.

Chen Xue'e's beautiful eyes flowed, she understood his father's thoughts, and her pretty face turned red.

In this way, when Chen Chuan returned to his original place, there were only ten girls left in the venue.

"Alright, the Ancestor's servants have been chosen among you. Chen Chuan said.

As soon as his voice fell, the door to the main hall was shut.

Although there are only a dozen, due to the too many items assessed, this toss was tossed until late at night.

At this time, there were only two women left in the room.

One of them, of course, is Chen Xue'e, who persevered to the end, and the other is a woman named Chen Yao, who looks the same as Chen Xue'e.

Chen Chuan frowned slightly, after such a long time of assessment, the two people left behind were excellent in terms of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and spiritual root qualifications, and it could be said that they were outstanding people in the Chen family, which made it difficult for him to choose for a while.

His gaze swept back and forth in front of the second daughter.

Although he is Chen Xue'e's father, it is a family matter, and he cannot show favoritism, so as not to harm the family.

The rest of the people who reviewed it together also showed embarrassed expressions.

Seeing that several elders were embarrassed, Chen Xue'e smiled faintly and said softly, "Why should the uncles be embarrassed?"

Chen Chuan, who was worried, was stunned when they heard this, and looked at Chen Xue'e in surprise.

"Oh, Xue'e, do you have a way?" asked Chen Chuan.

"Of course there is, since it is for Senior Ji to choose the maid and servant, of course, it is necessary for Senior Ji to look pleasing to the eye, and now that Sister Chen Yao and I make it difficult for you to choose, it is better to take us to Senior Ji and let him choose. Chen Xue'e's red lips opened slightly, and she spoke.

"This method is very good, why didn't we think of it!" As soon as Chen Xue'e's voice fell, someone immediately patted her thigh and agreed.

"Hahaha, maybe it's been too busy lately, and our brains have become dull. ”

Chen Chuan's eyes also lit up, he took a deep look at Chen Xue'e, and nodded, "Okay, in that case, you can come with me." ”

Ji Liao sat cross-legged on the futon, meditating with his eyes closed.

A copper incense burner slowly rose in front of him.

He was meditating peacefully, thinking in his mind what kind of talisman to fuse together to create a new talisman again.

Ji Liao was a little worried, and made it with him

There are more and more talismans, and there are not many talismans that can make him fuse, and besides, the power of them is either too low, or they don't match the other talismans at all, and he has no clue for a while.

"Whew..."Ji Liao exhaled a long breath, "Forget it, the talisman in my hand is still enough for me right now, so I'd better practice the exercises first and improve my cultivation realm." ”

He closed his eyes again, but soon his brow furrowed, and his eyelids lifted to look out the door.

"Ancestor, Chen Chuan has something to see. Chen Chuan's voice came from outside the door.

Ji Liao's eyes flashed, and after thinking about it, he waved his hand casually and opened the door of the house.

When he raised his eyes, he saw Chen Chuan standing respectfully outside the door with two pretty-looking women.

He frowned, not understanding Chen Chuan's intentions.

"Come in!" Ji Liao didn't think much about it, and said lightly.

"Yes!"

Chen Chuan bowed and saluted, and then carefully said to the second daughter behind him, "This is a big deal, you who persist to the end, you must also understand that you who pass this test are the servants of the ancestors, and as for whether you will be a maid or a concubine in the future, it is all up to you." ”

Chen Xue'e and Chen Yao nodded at the same time when they heard this, and then walked in with Chen Chuan.

(Yu Bodhi: Recently, my mother's eyes have risen to a bean, I need to have a small operation, the child is going to school at home, and I am a little too tired to run in two places every day, and I basically haven't written much during this time, so I can't say when, I suddenly became a change, don't be too surprised, I will recover again soon.) ）
