Chapter 18 Adopted as a Righteous Son
Zhao Xingdong looked at Shi Ming with a flustered expression, did not make a sound, and glanced at the black long knife.
This long black knife looks the same as a normal iron knife, except that it is heavier than a normal iron knife.
"Uncle Dong, this knife is the only item left to me by my third uncle, so I have a little ......" Shi Ming saw that Zhao Xingdong's expression was not unusual, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
"You are good at cultivating and striving to break through the Heavenly Realm as soon as possible and dissolve the strange poison in your body. Zhao Xingdong handed the black long knife to Shi Ming and turned to leave.
Shi Ming looked at the back of Zhao Xingdong leaving, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
......
"By the way, sister, what's the way of that little hairy boy who came to our house? You can't fool my sister, is it Dad's illegitimate son outside. Zhao Qionglan took the last piece of pastry on the table and dangled it in front of Zhao Weizhu's face.
"Sister, that's a long story. Zhao Weizhu stared at the pastry, "If you give it to me, I'll tell you." ”
"You're not allowed to be lai. Zhao Qionglan cautiously handed it over.
"I'll tell you......" Zhao Weizhu quickly stuffed the pastry into his mouth.
"Oh, you're in a hurry to be reincarnated, and I won't rob you. Zhao Qiong Lauder frowned.
"Sister, you don't know that the events of that day frightened me, and I can only forget that terrible feeling if I keep eating. Zhao Weizhu's expression darkened, and she looked like she was about to cry, "I don't dare to go out and run around anymore." ”
"Alright, alright. Zhao Qionglan's eyes instantly became gentle, and she gently hugged Zhao Weizhu in her arms.
After the death of Zhao Qionglan's mother, her father's attitude towards the sisters became lukewarm.
Erniang An Zihan was deeply favored by her father, and she confirmed the identity of the female head of the family in the Zhao family.
Zhao Qionglan has a very strong temperament, An Zihan doesn't like her very much, and even occasionally treats Zhao Qionglan harshly.
An Zihan's son Zhao Junbo is even more talented, and his cultivation talent can be ranked among the top five of the Zhao family in the past hundred years, coupled with hard work, Zhao Junbo is second only to Zhao Junhong among the younger generation in Jiuxing County.
Although the second son Zhao Junze is not as good as his two elder brothers, his cultivation talent is also excellent, and he has a good cultivation.
After Zhao Junhong was poisoned in the blood prison, the status of the two sons born to An Zihan instantly rose a lot, and some people even regarded Zhao Junbo as the future head of the family in private.
Zhao Xingdong loves An Zihan and his two sons, and faintly has the intention of establishing An Zihan as the main room.
On the death day of the third year of Zhao Qionglan's mother's death, Zhao Xingdong did not go to the grave, but just burned some paper money in the yard.
Zhao Qionglan hid in her room and cried all night, and when she came out the next day, her personality changed greatly, and her innocence and immaturity seemed to fade away overnight.
When Zhao Xingdong revealed the intention of setting An Zihan as the main room, Zhao Qionglan knelt in front of Zhao Xingdong's room with a white cloth that night, and wanted to force him to die.
Zhao Xingdong had no choice but to give up, and his attitude towards Zhao Qionglan also changed sharply, and the father and daughter met as if they were enemies.
......
"Sister, I really don't know that Shi Ming. A few days ago, I went out with Uncle Gu, and he accidentally stepped on the trap I set and almost died, but fortunately, my perception was strong, so I went over to save him. Zhao Weizhu wiped the corners of her mouth, "It's strange to say, Uncle Gu usually doesn't care about other people's lives or deaths." But after Uncle Gu checked Shi Ming's injuries, he had to bring him back. It seems to be very similar to my brother's condition. ”
"Then do you know where he came from?" Zhao Qionglan frowned.
"He said he didn't remember a lot of things, but he remembered that he came from a village I hadn't heard of. Zhao Weizhu burped, "Anyway, it's a dirt bun, I don't know any rules, I heard that he also injured the guards at the city gate." ”
"Ah, pay attention to the image, what kind of hiccups the girl's family has. Zhao Qionglan instantly straightened her face.
Zhao Weizhu laughed heartlessly, causing Zhao Qionglan to laugh too.
"As long as it's not his illegitimate child. Zhao Qionglan looked out the window and muttered softly.
......
As soon as Shi Ming sat back on the bed, Zhao Xingdong pushed the door in.
"Uncle Dong, is there something wrong?" Shi Ming was slightly stunned.
"Ming'er, you haven't had dinner yet, don't you mind having a meal with Uncle Dong. Zhao Xingdong smiled kindly, "Uncle Dong has something he wants to talk to his family." ”
Shi Ming nodded, hurriedly got out of bed and left with Zhao Xingdong.
The Zhao family's mansion is very large, with many courtyards, most of which are closed, and servants pass by from time to time in the aisles.
Shi Ming followed behind Zhao Xingdong and looked around curiously. When you see some strange stone statues, you can't help but stop. When he came back to his senses, Zhao Xingdong was already standing not far away and watching him quietly.
Shi Ming had a look of shame in his heart, and hurriedly followed.
Soon after.
Shi Ming followed Zhao Xingdong into an elegant courtyard. Shi Ming looked up at the elegant plaque, which read three handsome dark gold characters in Yashanju.
The room was not very big, but very tastefully furnished. In the center was a sandalwood round table, where many women and girls were sitting, laughing and chatting.
Seeing Zhao Xingdong walk in, a beautiful woman hurriedly stood up.
"Ah, the master is here. The beautiful woman hurriedly patted the snowflakes on Zhao Xingdong's body, "It's really cold, I specially warmed a pot of good wine for you to warm your body." ”
"Haha, Zihan bothered. Zhao Xingdong patted An Zihan's soft back.
Zhao Qionglan saw this scene and rolled her eyes at Zhao Weizhu.
"Who is this kid?" An Zihan looked at Shi Ming.
Shi Ming looked at An Zihan's eyes full of tenderness, and a strange emotion instantly rose in his heart, so he twisted his head away, not daring to look at An Zihan directly.
"This child is the child that Gu Hao rescued a few days ago. The cultivation of the root bone is wonderful, I took him to dinner, and I know each other. Zhao Xingdong pushed Shi Ming in front of him.
An Zihan gently stroked Shi Ming's head.
Shi Ming's head tilted to the side, getting rid of An Zihan's weak right hand.
The fragrance from An Zihan's body penetrated the tip of Shi Ming's nose, and Shi Ming's face turned slightly red.
"This is your Aunt Zihan. Zhao Xingdong looked at Shi Ming with a smile.
"This kid has some recognition. An Zihan put his hand on Shi Ming's head again, "Come on, sit down and talk." Don't let everyone wait for you. ”
Shi Ming listened to An Zihan's gentle voice, did not resist, and obediently followed into the room.
Shi Ming sat next to Zhao Weizhu, bowing his head and fiddling with the tablecloth, not daring to look at everyone, he seemed to be able to feel a lot of scrutiny. He felt like an ant crawling around, so he twisted his body unnaturally, and he didn't know where to put his hand.
Everyone began to eat, talking and laughing, as if they had forgotten Shi Ming, which made his pressure dissipate a lot in an instant.
Shi Ming hadn't eaten for several days, and the food was really delicious, and Shi Ming's chopsticks flew on the table.
The atmosphere suddenly froze, and Shi Ming seemed to only hear the sound of himself eating.
Zhao Weizhu gently clubbed Shi Ming with his left arm.
"Don't chirp when you eat. Zhao Weizhu tilted her head and reminded Shi Ming in a low voice.
Shi Ming nodded, a little at a loss for a moment, and put down the dishes and chopsticks.
"It's okay, it's okay, we don't pay so much attention. Zhao Xingdong ate a large mouthful of food, and also smacked his mouth, which made An Zihan look white.
"It's okay, eat it. Zhao Xingdong snorted, picked up the wine glass and drank it.
"You are so different from fighting people in the mountains and forests. Zhao Weizhu suppressed a smile and leaned to Shi Ming, "I've never seen such a good-looking aunt." ”
"Nonsense!" Shi Ming muttered, glancing at Zhao Weizhu viciously.
The meal was quickly coming to an end.
Zhao Xingdong looked at the people on the table, some of them were picking up leftovers with chopsticks, and some were bored playing with their fingers, so he cleared his throat.
"Well, everyone's eaten. Zhao Xingdong looked at An Zihan.
"It's all eaten, sir. An Zihan looked at Shi Ming gently, "Have you eaten well?"
Shi Ming hurriedly nodded.
"Well, I'm just going to announce something to you this time. Zhao Xingdong looked at Shi Ming, "Come here." ”
Shi Ming stood up sluggishly and walked to Zhao Xingdong's side.
Zhao Xingdong touched Shi Ming's head, "I think, this kid has a good root, and he saved Wei Zhu's life, he is Wei Zhu's life-saving benefactor, I think it must be related to my Zhao family." ”
"This kid is lonely and has no one to rely on. I want to take this child as a righteous son, and this time I just want to talk to you. ”
Shi Ming was instantly stunned in place.
Zhao Weizhu and Zhao Qionglan glanced at each other, and Zhao Qionglan's apricot eyes widened, as if they were about to fall out.
"Is he your life-saving benefactor?" Zhao Qionglan looked at Zhao Weizhu incredulously.
Zhao Weizhu gave Zhao Qionglan an even more incredible look.
An Zihan was slightly stunned, not knowing what she was thinking.
"Zihan, do you have anything to say?"
"No, no, everything is decided by the head of the family. An Zihan looked at Shi Ming gently, but there were some strange emotions in her eyes.
"Okay!" Zhao Xingdong nodded heavily.
"Then from today onwards, you will be a member of my Zhao family. Zhao Xingdong rubbed Shi Ming's head vigorously.
"Let me introduce you, this is your second mother. Zhao Xingdong pointed at An Zihan.
Shi Ming hurriedly lowered his head, "Erniang is good." ”
An Zihan nodded gently.
"This is your Sanniang. ”
......
After Zhao Xingdong introduced the ladies on the table, he pointed to the girls next to Shi Ming.
"Weizhu, you should be familiar with it. ”
"The one next to her is Sister Qionglan, and you also have an eldest sister named Qingmei, who is not at home now. ”
"Is there another sister named Chrysanthemum?"
Zhao Xingdong was slightly stunned.
"Isn't it Meilan Zhuju?"
"There should be, but your aunt is gone. An Zihan sighed lightly.
There was a moment of silence at the dinner table.
Shi Ming realized that he had said the wrong thing again, and a wave of heat instantly surged over his head, and his face became red.
"I'm sorry ......"
"It's okay, it's okay, your aunt hasn't been here for several years. Zhao Xingdong pointed to An Zihan, "Your second mother has two children, both of whom are your elder brothers, but they are both away and have not returned." ”
"You Sanniang ......"
After Zhao Xingdong finished his introduction, he looked at Shi Ming, "From now on, you are a member of the Zhao family, are you willing to change your surname to Zhao?"
Shi Ming looked at the many stares coming from the table and shook his head gently.
