Chapter 196 90: Thunderous to the Ears
Moments later,
Jiang Ning returned to the hall, holding a plate in his hands that contained a full jin of White Dragon Fish slices.
"Ah Ning, what are you doing?" Liuu Wanwan exclaimed upon seeing the White Dragon Fish slices in Jiang Ning's hands.
Jiang Ning smiled, "My sister-in-law's brother has come from afar, how could I not host him properly?"
As his words fell, Jiang Ning placed the plate with the White Dragon Fish slices at the center of the dining table.
"Little Dumpling wants to eat fish!" Little Dumpling, eyeing the snow-white fish meat, immediately salivated and started vigorously shaking Jiang Ning's sleeve.
Seeing this, Jiang Ning smiled.
Then, he picked up a slice of fish from the plate and placed it in Little Dumpling's bowl.
"Eat slowly!"
"Okay!!" Little Dumpling nodded repeatedly, like a chick pecking at grains of rice.
Liuu Shansheng watched the fish meat on the plate, a slight look of surprise on his face.
Although White Dragon Fish was extremely precious, costing a hundred taels of silver per jin,
being the eldest son of the Liuu family, he has naturally eaten it before.
And he had consumed quite a bit.
This type of Spirit Fish was very beneficial not only for those who practiced Martial Arts, but also for ordinary people who have yet to begin refining their muscles and bones.
It could enhance one's physical constitution and improve Martial Arts Talent.
A good constitution and high talent
resulted in a high efficiency whether in strengthening Qi-Blood or refining skin, flesh, and bones.
And at the same level, one's potential was much higher than that of ordinary people.
The Divine Power Realm was a typical example.
Some people, after refining their muscles to their limits, possessed only about two thousand jin of strength.
While others, with casual refining, could easily exceed two thousand jin of strength, with limits reaching three to four thousand jin.
This difference was due to innate reasons and differences in physical constitution and talent.
It was precisely because of the effects of the Spirit Fish like White Dragon Fish in enhancing physical constitution and improving Martial Art Talent that it was worth a hundred taels of silver per jin.
Afterward, Liuu Shansheng asked, "Is this... the meat of a White Dragon Fish?"
"Exactly!" Jiang Ning nodded.
"You've managed to get the meat of a Spirit Fish like the White Dragon Fish, impressive!" Liuu Shansheng's face showed his appreciation.
Jiang Ning smiled, "Yiming is about the right age to start practicing Martial Arts, naturally, we need to prepare something for him! The meat of the White Dragon Fish will be a great help to him in the future."
"Indeed!" Liuu Shansheng nodded and then he picked up a piece of White Dragon Fish meat and popped it into his mouth.
After tasting it slightly, he swallowed it down.
The next moment.
"This… this fish meat is somewhat unusual?" Liuu Shansheng looked at the dish of White Dragon Fish meat on the dining table in front of him.
Jiang Ning said, "This fish was quite large."
"Quite large?" Liuu Shansheng looked at Jiang Ning with some confusion.
Jiang Ning replied, "Yes, it weighed about a hundred jin."
"A hundred jin?" Liuu Shansheng's eyes widened in disbelief, "Is it a spirit?"
Jiang Ning said, "Whether it's a spirit or not, I don't know. But I believe this Spirit Fish meat will greatly aid Yiming in his Martial Arts journey, don't you think?"
Liuu Shansheng instantly smiled, "You're right! The energy contained in this fish meat far surpasses the White Dragon Fish meat I've eaten before, and it will indeed be a great help to Yiming!"
"But if Yiming were to return to the Liuu family, with me there, money is not an issue, and he could freely purchase any Martial Arts resources he needs."
"That's something ordinary families cannot afford."
While speaking, Liuu Shansheng also glanced around the hall.
He then nodded slightly, "This house is indeed quite big! However, when I broke through to Martial Arts Nine Grade, it cost me a full ten thousand taels of silver, which could buy several homes like this."
At that moment, Jiang Li said, "Younger brother, there's no need to say more! San Sheng is right, returning to the Liuu family will ensure a bright future for Yiming, what I can offer him is limited."
"Whether to return home or not is not up for you to decide, I have the final say," Liuu Wanwan put down her chopsticks decisively.
As these words came out, the atmosphere at the dining table suddenly became a bit tense.
Silence followed for a moment.
Just then,
Thump thump thump—
"Brother Jiang Ning!!"
A knocking sound and a shout came from the front gate of the house, immediately breaking the quiet in the hall.
It was... Yang Kai!
Jiang Ning's eyes hardened, and he muttered under his breath.
"Father, Uncle, Uncle, I'll go to the door." Jiang Yiming also stood up at that moment.
He paused, then said firmly, "Dad, Mom, I don't want to go to the Liuu family. I've already gotten used to everything in Luoshui County."
Jiang Yiming expressed his stance and headed straight to the front yard.
"This boy…" Liuu Wanwan watched her eldest son and couldn't help but smile knowingly.
Returning to the Liuu family?
If she would make that choice now, she wouldn't have decided to elope with Jiang Li ten years ago either.
Given those circumstances back then, she was willing to follow Jiang Li, let alone now.
Nowaday, they had more than enough food and drink and their children were thriving; it was indeed Perfection.
Moreover, her younger brother had also become capable, able to lend a hand.
As for her parents, she wasn't ungrateful.
It was truly because over the years, she couldn't return, nor dared to return.
Her uncles and her father's words back then made it clear that she had no right to return.
At that moment,
Liuu Shansheng looked at his sister, then at the departing figure of Jiang Yiming, shaking his head.
However, he wasn't entirely resigned. He was very aware of his sister's personality.
To make her return home wouldn't be so simple.
Today was just a simple try.
The real opportunity would come the day he became the Patriarch of the Liuu Family.
What do you think?
