Chapter 177
Lin Wen hastily packed some food to fill his stomach. He wanted to meet the person who didn't know whether he should be a cousin or a cousin in his current status. It was Baifu, he didn't want to lose face of Baifu and his uncle.
"You stay and eat slowly?" Lin Wen asked Wu Xiao who was still eating after rinsing his mouth.
Wu Xiao raised his head, shook his head, and swallowed all his food into his abdominal space with one mouthful. Yao Tao had seen this scene more than once, except for the first time he was shocked. I got used to it slowly, Young Master Wen is a great genius alchemist, and the contracted beasts accompanying Young Master Wen are of course extraordinary beasts.
After collecting the food, Yao Tao didn't see his movements clearly, but saw that he had appeared on Lin Wen's shoulder, and worshiped him again.
Wu Xiao flicked his tail, and transmitted his spiritual sense: "Let's go."
Lin Wen left the endgame to Yao Tao, took Wu Xiao out, poked Wu Xiao with his finger, and said via voice transmission, "What do you want to do with the past?"
Wu Xiaoxin said that he didn't know well... Snake Heart, the old god said: "Meet Xibei."
Lin Wen couldn't help laughing, bickering as he walked, one person and one snake, and came to the place where Bai Yi entertained guests, which was a small flower hall.
Young Master Zhou came to visit his uncle as a nephew, so of course there was no need to entertain him with a high standard.Before he went in, Lin Wen heard a familiar voice, and couldn't help curling his lips. The three of them, Bai Feng and his son, were there, and Bai Mingjiang hadn't gotten out of the Bai Mansion yet?He didn't know that Bai Mingjiang was simply staying in the mansion under the pretext of recovering from his injuries.
Bai Yi was drinking tea, listening casually to the conversation between Bai Feng and his son and Zhou Tingkai. Knowing that the young master of Lincheng Zhou Mansion was coming, the first and second elders restrained the clansmen not to show up.
The relationship between the current Bai Mansion and the Zhou family in Lincheng is really embarrassing. Bai Fengshu has been scheming about the affairs of the Bai family. How could these two elders forget it easily? Bai Fengshu took care of them secretly again, but this could not completely make up for the gap in their hearts. It was absolutely impossible to sit down and still be relatives, so avoid unnecessary occasions as much as possible.
However, Bai Yi and Bai Fengshu are brothers and sisters, and the two elders also know that the connection between them cannot be completely severed. If you want to say who has suffered the most from Bai Fengshu, it is Bai Yi. The price of walking, how many eyes and contempt they have received in the position of Patriarch over the years, so they can't make any choices in place of Bai Yi, Bai Yi can still accept the same protection as Bai Fengshu's charity, not for the whole Bai family Otherwise, you can go far away with Xiao Ruiyang.
But the three elders have the thickest skins, and it is not easy for the third elders to attend such occasions as elders, so all three of Bai Feng and his son came, and greeted Young Master Zhou with a familiar tone of relatives, and even showed a hint of embarrassment in their conversations. To please the suspicion of sycophancy, Bai Yi didn't say much, but he was also silently observing this so-called "nephew". The contempt and disdain shown occasionally are enough to judge the attitude of the Zhou Mansion towards the Bai Mansion.
There is another person who came unexpectedly, that is the second elder's Shuang'er Bai He, Bai Yi had heard that Bai He in the mansion wanted to show off his identity as an authentic Bai family's child everywhere, so as to overwhelm Lin Wen, Just because of this, Bai Yi was already displeased. Shuang'er, who originally intended to cling to a good marriage partner, was not within the scope of Bai Yi's attention.
Sensing the familiar atmosphere approaching the small flower hall, Bai Yi put down his teacup and looked up at the door. The polite smile on his face became real. When the man stepped into the flower hall, Bai Yi smiled and said, "Awen is here, come here, uncle." side."
A little impatient with the Bai family, the only person Zhou Tingkai was interested in talking to was Bai Yi, his uncle, especially because he was entrusted by his mother before he came, but what happened to these collateral members of the Bai family?Don't you see that he has no desire to talk to them at all?
His mother had told him about the collateral lineages of the Bai family, and his uncle was in such a situation because the collateral lines wanted to replace the direct lineage, so he didn't have any good feelings for these collateral lines.
There is also the Shuang'er next to him, he is too familiar with the calculations revealed, he has seen too many women and Shuang'er like this in Lincheng and in the imperial city, and thought that if he kissed him, he would be able to leap into the dragon's gate, but in his His eyes are really frivolous, his mother taught him very early on, people who practice martial arts should not vent Yuan Yang prematurely, even in their family it takes a little longer to marry a wife than in other families, let alone marrying a wife close to him. It is absolutely not allowed to happen before marrying a wife. His mother has always been strict with him, and he rarely disobeys his mother.
Also because of his mother's relationship, Zhou Tingkai also has a close feeling for his uncle whom his mother often talks about, but the few times he has been in contact with his uncle since he was a child, he can still feel that his uncle doesn't like him very much. I asked my mother a little bit, and my mother said that my uncle blamed her because my mother didn't think carefully and did something wrong to my uncle, so I can't blame my uncle.
But at this moment, he heard his uncle address another person gently as uncle, and Zhou Tingkai, who also heard the footsteps, raised his head and looked at the person who came. For some reason, before seeing this person, Zhou Tingkai felt that he should not like his uncle's other nephew. Yes, because only he and his younger brother were born of his mother, the closest blood relationship to his uncle, so what are the others?Especially with his uncle's attitude, Zhou Tingkai felt that his uncle had been robbed.
But Zhou Tingkai couldn't help gasping when he saw this. The young man who was walking into the flower hall against the light, his facial features were distinct and a bit softer than the man's, his eyes were full of aura but with a touch of alienation, but he was facing the white man. When Yi smiled softly, he also showed a very similar smile. Zhou Tingkai was stunned for an instant. He felt that his uncle should have looked like this when he was a teenager.
Bai He quietly noticed Young Master Zhou's expression, secretly annoyed, and gave Lin Wen who walked in a hard look. He shouldn't have come again if he didn't come in the first place. Why did he have such a face like the Patriarch? Appearance will definitely attract the attention of Mr. Zhou, Bai He secretly slandered that these two children might really be the illegitimate sons of the Patriarch, and the announced life experience is just to cover up his ugliness, otherwise why the Patriarch attaches so much importance to him?The batches of spiritual grass sent to his yard alone are worth his share for many years. If he has such good conditions, what can he do?
Bai Mingjiang was also dazzled by the sight, the reversed light seemed to coat this man with a layer of golden light, which made him look even more dusty and inviolable, but this also aroused people's desire to conquer him even more. The humiliation he suffered made Bai Mingjiang's eyes darken. How could it be possible if he suffered such a big loss and got nothing in return?It's all the fault of Cai Feiqiu, that useless fat man, but after a few whips, he poured out all his words. Let's see how he will continue to walk in Nan'an City in the future. Those who suffered together are waiting to teach him a lesson.
Lin Wen strolled to Bai Yi's side, and just as he was about to salute, Bai Yi raised his hand and helped him up: "Ah Wen, you don't need to be too polite." Lin Wen has always been very casual when there are no outsiders, and he can be as comfortable as possible with his uncle. It's just that you can't lose your identity in front of outsiders, "Just come out of the alchemy room, come, uncle will introduce you to the guests."
"Yes, uncle." Lin Wen took the opportunity to stand beside his uncle, and then looked up at the young man seated on the other side. He was about the same age as himself, and looked heroic. As expected, he is the son of everyone, and his aura is no weaker than that of Lin Wu.
Lin Wen didn't have any complaints about the change of status, so he met Zhou Tingkai's gaze calmly, keeping the smile on his face unchanged.
Bai Yi was also very satisfied when he saw this, and said that he was indeed his nephew, and he could still hold his breath in such a situation: "Awen, this is Mr. Zhou from Lincheng Zhou Mansion, and Mr. Zhou's mother is uncle's elder sister. .”
Lin Wen raised his eyebrows and asked deliberately: "Uncle, should I call Mr. Zhou cousin or cousin? Or should I still call Mr. Zhou." There was still a hint of ridicule in his voice.
The smile on Bai Yi's face widened when he heard this, and before he opened his mouth, Zhou Tingkai said, "This must be Mr. Bai Sheng Bai. He heard about the name of alchemist Bai Sheng when he came to Nan'an City yesterday. Uncle really has a good vision." It just so happens that Ting Kai also wants to know who is older, Mr. Bai Sheng or I."
Bai Yi lowered his eyes, raised them again and smiled and said, "Awen happened to be ahead of Mr. Zhou, so Awen is slightly older, but you can call each other whatever you want in private."
This is good!Lin Wen's eyebrows twitched again. He didn't want to be a "cousin" and be crushed by a counterfeit for nothing, even though this Mr. Zhou might, no, after seeing Mr. Zhou's eyes clearly looking at his uncle Rumu, Lin Wen Wen was [-]% sure that Mr. Zhou didn't know his real life experience, so he was somewhat innocent in this whole incident, but even if he knew he was innocent, he still didn't want to be taken advantage of by others.
Seeing Lin Wen's little complacency, Bai Yi knew he had done the right thing, and his smile was tinged with a little teasing.
Although Zhou Tingkai was a little annoyed, he didn't want to be rude in front of his uncle, so he got up and handed over his hands and called out, "Then I'm my cousin. Cousin Tingkai has met cousin Bai Sheng."
"Mr. Zhou is being polite. In fact, I took advantage of my uncle." On the surface, his blood relationship with his uncle is not as close as Zhou Tingkai's real nephew, so this cousin really has the cheek. In fact, Lin Wen suddenly thought that the real relationship between him and Zhou Tingkai should be brothers or cousins. I don't know if his biological father is the same person as his own, but the same father is more likely.
Lin Wen, who couldn't figure out the complicated relationship inside, looked at Zhou Tingkai with some sympathy, and he would rather live soberly than being kept in the dark.
