Chapter 420 How Wonderful It Would Be if I Were a Fairy

On this day, Duke Huan was still out doing business, so Huan Yin was in charge of all matters at home.

Huan Yin was discussing things with Ye Wuyou in the study when A Le suddenly ran in quickly and said, "Young Master, there is someone asking for marriage outside."

Huan Yin and Ye Wuyou were both stunned, and it took them a long time to react. Huan Yin said, "What kind of marriage are you asking for?"

This thing happened so unexpectedly and absurdly that A Le felt that he didn’t know what to say. He thought for a long time before finally answering: "They claimed to be from the Gao family outside the city and said... that the young master of the Gao family wanted to marry... marry Jiujiu. Miss."

"What?" Huan Yin was inexplicable and also a little nervous. After all, it was about Huan Jiujiu, who was his best sister. He had to ask carefully.

Huan Yin continued: "Which Gao family? Why didn't I know that we have a Gao family in Jingzhou?"

A Le replied: "I also heard from Uncle Liu that the Gao family seems to be dozens of miles away from the city, and it seems to be very big."

Huan Yin and Ye Wuyou looked at each other and said, "Let's go and ask Sister Jiujiu if she knows this Gao family."

When he got to Huan Jiujiu's room, Huan Yin saw Huan Jiujiu and his mother Liu. Now Huan Yin's position in the Huan family is completely unshakable, so even the Liu family is respectful to Huan Yin.

After exchanging polite greetings, Huan Yin asked the mother and daughter: "Sanniang, Sister Jiujiu, do you know anyone from the Gao family?"

The mother and daughter looked at each other, and Huan Jiujiu said, "Brother, we have never heard of anyone from the Gao family. Why do you ask like that?"

Huan Yin felt even more confused, so he told the story: "Ale said that someone from the Gao family came to ask for marriage, and he meant you, my sister."

Huan Jiujiu stood up suddenly, her eyes widened: "What! I...I have never heard of anyone named Gao."

Mrs. Liu said: "It seems that there is another person who wants to join our Huan family and climb high. Yin'er, please ask your servants to send them away. Your sister must find a good family, right?"

Huan Yin nodded repeatedly: "Sister Jiujiu must find a good family, and he must be a man that Sister Jiujiu likes. That's fine. The Gao family is so unbecoming. He came to the door out of nowhere. It's really No rules."

Then he turned to Ah Le and said, "A Le, go and send them away."

A Le went out in response, while Ye Wuyou muttered from the side: "It's really inexplicable."

Half an hour later, A Le came to Huan Yin's study again and said, "Young Master, the people from the Gao family are refusing to leave. They are standing at the door and insisting that we accept the betrothal gift."

Huan Yin said with a look of disbelief: "What? Did you bring the bride price directly? What, they still want to kidnap Sister Jiujiu?"

A Le said: "I brought it with me, the matchmaker, and all the betrothal gifts and so on."

Huan Yin took a step forward and said, "Let's go, take me to see what kind of person the young master of the Gao family is."

Ah Le said, "The young master of the Gao family didn't come."

Huan Yin was even more shocked and said: "He asked for a kiss the first time he came to the door, but the real owner still didn't come?" Huan Yin had one sentence he didn't say, which was, "Does the Gao family look down on my Huan family?"

Huan Yin quickly walked to the front yard of Huan Mansion under the leadership of A Le. At this time, a large amount of betrothal gifts had been placed in the front yard. Not to mention, this was a really generous offer.

However, the Huan family didn't care about this at all. The Gao family was so ungrateful that Huan Yin had no good impression of them.

When Huan Yin walked out, the Gao family still had some discernment. The middle-aged man with a matchmaker came up to him and asked, "Are you the person in charge of the Huan family?"

Huan Yin returned the courtesy and said: "Huan Yin, my father is not here, so I am in charge of the affairs of the family."

The middle-aged man stopped talking, and the matchmaker said enthusiastically: "We are..."

Huan Yin didn't like this member of the Gao family at all, so he came to ask for marriage out of nowhere, and he also asked for his closest sister Jiujiu. And if the young master of the Gao family hasn't come yet, it seems that he has found a steward of the family to come with a matchmaker. So Huan Yin interrupted directly: "Everyone, please go back. My sister has no intention of looking for a relative."

The matchmaker was originally smiling, but when she said this to Huan Yin, her smile suddenly froze and she didn't know how to continue speaking. The middle-aged man next to her frowned, and after a while he said, "What you are doing is probably not the way to treat guests."

Huan Yin sneered secretly, thinking, does coming uninvited still count as a guest? So he asked loudly: "Whose surname is Gao?"

After a long while, no one answered. Huan Yin said: "The orders of the parents are the words of the matchmaker. The Gao family is asking for marriage, but where are the parents? There is not even a person named Gao present, so please come back."

Huan Yin's words were already extremely polite. After all, the Gao family was too rude. If it had been anyone else, they would have been kicked out of the house long ago.

Unexpectedly, the middle-aged man actually sneered and said, "I haven't seen the parents of the Huan family either."

Huan Yin frowned deeply, and Ye Wuyou said directly: "I didn't plan to see him, so of course I won't see him." Ye Wuyou didn't speak so politely, which made Huan Yin feel happy.

The middle-aged man turned to Ye Wuyou and asked, "Who are you? Can you speak on behalf of the Huan family?"

Ye Wuyou laughed: "Who are you? Can you speak on behalf of the Gao family? Your status in the Gao family is probably not as high as mine in the Huan family. I am talking to you here, which is a compliment to you. And our young master has no intention of talking to you. We don't accept your business. Please leave."

The middle-aged man didn't expect Ye Wuyou to be so sharp. He said with anger on his face: "Young master of the Huan family, your dog is not tied up properly. Let it out to bite people."

Huan Yin and Ye Wuyou have a brotherly relationship. Hearing him say this, he immediately got angry. He took Ye Wuyou's hand and turned around, saying: "Ale, drive them away. If they don't leave, report to the police!"

"You will regret it!" The middle-aged man's voice came from behind Huan Yin, but Huan Yin left without looking back.

This matter was naturally regarded as a farce, and no one cared at all. It was just a few jokes when the family sat down to eat, that's all.

Late at night, a shrill cry came from the backyard of the Huan family, waking up Huan Yin from his sleep.

"What's going on!" Huan Yin exclaimed, and immediately a night servant walked into Huan Yin's room and said, "Young Master, it seems to be the sound coming from the backyard."

Huan Yin got out of bed, put on his clothes in a few seconds, and said, "Come on, accompany me to take a look."

When he went out, Huan Yin found that Huan Jiujiu, Huan Ling, Ye Wuyou and Liu had just left the room, and they were obviously frightened by the sound just now.

"Yin'er, what's wrong?" Huan Yin can be said to be half the backbone of the Huan family now, so Liu asked him directly.

Huan Yin shook his head: "I was just thinking about taking a look."

A group of people brought some servants, more than a dozen, and walked towards the backyard in a mighty manner. During the march, screams continued to be heard, and they became more and more frequent and more and more obvious, and there were also the shouting and noisy sounds of the servants.

When they reached the backyard door, Huan Yin and the others saw a bright fire inside, and it was obvious that there were already many servants here.

"What's going on!" The situation in the yard was covered by the servants, so Huan Yin pulled someone over to ask.

"Young... Young Master, ghost... ghost!" The man saw Huan Yin, shouted a few words vaguely, and ran away.

Huan Yin was startled and hurriedly got into the crowd that was fleeing outside. Soon he heard clearer screams and wild beast-like roars.

Until all the people in front of him were passed by Huan Yin, he finally saw the scene in the yard.

There, two extremely terrifying things were roaring constantly, and they kept rushing towards the servants of the Huan family, cruelly tearing or biting them to pieces, making the whole backyard a bloody mess.

"What... what is this!" Ye Wuyou and Huan Yin followed the closest, so they also saw all this, and were obviously scared.

A sentence suddenly popped up in Huan Yin's mind: "You will regret it!" It was exactly what the Gao family said during the day.

This Gao family is not human, but ghosts! If Sister Jiujiu is married to them without knowing what's going on, it will be bad.

But what can we do now? As the young master of a family, Huan Yin should stand up and take charge of the situation at this time, and he can't let the Huan family be messed up by monsters. But what can he, a mortal, do against ghosts?

Finally, Liu and other women also came over. Seeing the horrible scene in front of them, some screamed shrilly, and some fainted directly.

The two ghosts were attracted by the shouts of several women, and looked over here, showing a hideous smile, as if they recognized Huan Yin and the others as the real masters of the Huan family.

"Roar!" The two monsters roared together and rushed towards Huan Yin.

"Run!" Huan Yin shouted, pushing Huan Jiujiu and the others out, and took the initiative to meet them, trying to stop the monsters.

At this moment, there was another person as brave as Huan Yin, that was Ye Wuyou!

The two people blocked the way of the ghosts one by one. The two ghosts didn't care at all. They directly threw Huan Yin and Ye Wuyou to the ground, and even wiped their bodies with blood.

"Brother!" Huan Jiujiu saw Huan Yin being pressed down and shouted.

Huan Yin was pressed to the ground, and it was difficult for him to breathe, and it was impossible for him to make any sound. In front of him was a face that was extremely terrifying and the bloody stench from the ghost's mouth.

Is he going to die? Is the huge Huan family going to be destroyed by two ghosts? Mortals are really pitiful. If they were immortals, if they had immortal arts in their hands, they would probably be able to chop these two ghosts in an instant, right?

"If I were an immortal, how great it would be." At this moment of life and death, Huan Yin's heart was surprisingly calm. But this calmness was full of regret, which was caused by the pain of not being able to protect the people around him.
