Chapter 16 third quarter

Time: Chen Shizheng, three quarters (according to today's time, it should be 8:45 in the morning). Location: Wuming Villa, Ruxin Building. Ru Xin Building, the third floor, the third young master waited for Ning Xin'er to sit down.The furnishings above the third floor are quaint, luxurious and exquisite, and the painstaking efforts in construction can be seen everywhere.Ning Xin'er looked around for a long time before waking up from a dream and asked: "Where are the craftsmen who built the buildings and the gardeners who planted flowers now? I want to thank them very much. In just one night, nothing was left. It must have taken a lot of thought and energy to transform Tianyiping into a fairyland on earth with masterful hands."

"They worked all night, all with haggard faces and ragged clothes. They were afraid of staining your eyes and ruining your good mood for the day. So they resigned as soon as they finished their work. But you don't have to feel sorry, I have already thanked them for you. " Ning Xin'er said: "Cao Xiaosan, you must have put a lot of effort into designing all this to perfection. Thank you so much." The third son, however, did not look complacent. He looked at Uncle Meng and said, "Uncle Meng, there is still a painting missing." Ning Xin'er said: "What painting?"

Uncle Meng replied: "The young master asked Su Hanchen, a famous painter in the capital, to draw a huge painting for the lady, which I want to hang on the middle hall of the Ruxin Building. According to the logic, Su Hanchen should have delivered the painting last night, and I don't know why. Because of this, he has been delaying until now and has not come, and it seems that he will not come." The third son sighed: "Finally something went wrong. But it's only a white jade with slight flaws. Xin'er, you don't have to be depressed. Next time I will find another artist to paint for you again."

"No, no one has painted a portrait of me when I grow up so old. Tomorrow I want you to accompany me to Su Hanchen's house to see if he has painted for me. If not, ask him to make up the painting immediately. You are so powerful, there must be a way." The third son said: "Okay, I will accompany you tomorrow. Now, birthday boy, wait to receive the gift." "Receive the gift? Who will give it?" "A group of uninvited guests who want to come to celebrate your birthday, not only you don't know, many of them even I don't know. They come all the way to the capital, it's not easy to turn them away." After the third son finished speaking, he nodded to Uncle Meng.

Uncle Meng knew it early, and clapped his hands downstairs, and someone lit two long strings of firecrackers hanging down from the left and right eaves about ten feet high.Immediately, the sound of festive firecrackers accompanied by the smell of gunpowder reverberated up and down the lonely mountain. Ning Xin'er was condescending, raised her eyes and saw a winding human dragon on the Baidi turning into the lonely mountain, climbing up the stairs, and walking towards the gate of the unnamed villa. From the gate came a loud call of fame: "Shaolin is here." The servants who greeted the guests along the way sent their words to Tianyiping one by one: "Shaolin is here." It seems that these four words have grown legs , passed all the way from the gate, one place stopped, and another place immediately followed.

After a while, a monk came down to the third floor under the guidance of Uncle Meng, saluted the third son, and said: "The poor monk, Hui Shi, was ordered by Master Yuan Xing, the abbot of our temple, to come here to celebrate Miss Ning's birthday. The gift is so small that it is not a respect. .” The gift he sent was a Maitreya Buddha made of pure gold.Hui Shi said: "This Buddha statue was consecrated by nine masters and uncles of Yuanzi generation in our temple. They chanted scriptures and blessed it for seventy-seven forty-nine nights. May it bless the girl with a long life and endless blessings."

Ning Xin'er accepted the gift with a smile, and said: "Thank you, master, for your kindness, but I don't need the protection of the Bodhisattva, it is enough for me to have the protection of the third son." She looked at the third son as she said.The third young master quickly straightened his back, his face was serious, and he put on a mighty look, Ning Xin'er said again: "No matter what, I still want to thank Master." The third son also said: "Master has worked hard all the way, please come to the second floor to serve tea." Monk Huishi saluted together and was led by Uncle Meng.Next, representatives from Wudang, Kunlun, Emei and other dozens of martial arts sects were led up one by one, offering birthday gifts to congratulate Ning Xin'er on her birthday.More than an hour passed, and it was over.

Ning Xin'er said to the third young master: "I don't know these people, why do they give me gifts?" The third young master shook his head, and said: "I don't know, people in the Jianghu are probably relatively timid. I think they must be afraid of your martial arts, if you are not happy at any time, they will send them up and down to wipe out the whole family." Tragedy. So they plan ahead, wait for the itch, and bribe you first, so that you can't bear to attack them." Ning Xin'er said: "Stop teasing me, I'll tell you the truth. Why did they give me a gift?"

The third son said: "I'm embarrassed to say." "What's the matter with embarrassment. Say." "It's actually because they all admire you." "Nonsense, if you dare to talk poorly again, I will throw you down from the third floor." "You can't leave me behind, my martial arts are still a bit high." "Shameless, then I'll throw myself down, it's okay." Ning Xin'er became annoyed, she really walked to the railing, ready to jump down.The third young master had no choice but to drag Ning Xin'er back to her seat.During this period, a lot of physical contact is unavoidable.It is really envious of others, including me.

"Tell me why they gave me a gift." Ning Xin'er continued to ask. "Can't you pretend that you don't know? Don't care who gave it to you, and why they gave it to you. Don't ask so many questions. Isn't it good to accept a gift?" "No, even if I accept an unclear gift, I still feel unhappy." As the saying goes: An old man in a family is like a treasure.Uncle Meng came out to smooth things over.Uncle Meng said: "Miss, in fact, all the sects in the world owe my young master some favors, but usually they don't have a chance to repay the favor, because the young master is a genius, invincible, and there is really no use for them." So, they just took advantage of Miss's birthday to visit the door to celebrate her birthday, and by the way, they can be regarded as repaying the young master's favor."

Ning Xin'er smiled and said: "Cao Xiaosan, Cao Xiaosan, it turns out that I received so many gifts because of your credit." "Don't laugh like that, I'm scared. If you want to get angry, get angry. I accept my fate. Suddenly, I heard the lion roaring in the east of the river, and I was at a loss when I leaned on the stick. Please open your mouth and roar." "Bah, you have a good idea, so I won't yell at you." "You'd better yell casually. Otherwise, my heart will always be in suspense, and Xiaosheng is afraid." "Don't worry, in front of people, you will always be the head of the family, the high-ranking old man. I dare not get angry in front of so many people. Wouldn't that make you unable to step down?" "Why are you so angry?" "I'm mad at you, I'm mad at you." "Why?" The third son asked innocently. "You bully me, it's not enough for you to bully me by yourself, and you have to invite so many people to bully me in partnership, what does my birthday have to do with them? I don't know them, and they didn't come here just for me. It's just an excuse for them to please you." The third son fell into deep thought.Ning Xin'er's reaction was unexpected, he just wanted to make Ning Xin'er happy and let her have an unforgettable birthday.But it doesn't make sense to think about what she said.However, these hundreds of guests from various sects of martial arts traveled thousands of miles to the Wuming Villa, and they had to show their kindness as landlords, no matter how arrogant the third young master was, he was really embarrassed to issue an order to expel them. The third son had no choice but to make nonsense: "I am not the third son, I am King Zhou You; you are not Ning Xin'er, you are Baosi. The lonely king wants to make his concubine smile, and he has no other intentions." Ning Xin'er also thought of the story about the feudal lords in Fengyan Opera, and said, "You really think so?" "That's right, I'm just a foolish king who doesn't love the country and only loves beauties." A few words from the third son made Ning Xin'er feel much more at ease, she immediately smiled again and said: "You are a foolish king, then I will be a witch who will bring disaster to the country, hehe." The third son let out a sigh of relief, and wiped off his sweat without mentioning it.Qingcheng is only waiting to laugh, how many strands will be cracked.dangerous.
