Chapter 98: My Fair Lady, Gentleman
Xia Jinxi took Xiao Ye's hand and walked into the villa.
In the living room, there was a circle of people, except for the most dignified old man among them, who should be the old man Xia, the others were probably relatives or friends of the Xia family.
"Grandpa, this is the classmate Xiao Ye I often tell you, classmate Xiao Ye, this is my grandfather, these are my grandfather's old comrades-in-arms, and they are all here to celebrate my grandfather's birthday. ”
Xiao Ye nodded.
"Hello Grandpa Xia. ”
Although Xiao Ye is arrogant, he is not rude. Master Xia also seemed to be quite satisfied with him.
"Yes, neither humble nor arrogant, it is a good seedling. Jinxi, you have a good eye. ”
Xia Jinxi's face was slightly red, like a little daughter-in-law, and invited Xiao Ye to sit down.
"Xiao Ye, please sit down, I'll pour you tea. ”
Several of Old Man Xia's other old comrades-in-arms couldn't help but quip:
"This treatment is really different, we are all nannies pouring tea, this kid is here, Jinxi will pour tea himself, this is not a family yet, it will hurt people's foreheads. ”
Xia Jinxi's face turned even redder.
"Grandpa, look at them. ”
Old Man Xia also smiled.
"They're all joking with you. No malice, you go pour tea. By the way, Xiao Ye, I heard that you have good kung fu, I don't know where you are from?"
"My mother is a native of Jiangnan, and I can be regarded as half Jiangnan. ”
"Oh, I don't know where your father is?"
"Magic City. ”
"Demon Capital, that's one of the top metropolises in our China, you don't study in the Demon Capital, why did you come to Jiangnan to study?"
"I don't have a very good relationship with them. ”
"So that's the case, then you don't have to worry, I'll be such a granddaughter as Jinxi, as long as you treat her well, our Xia family's property will all belong to the two of you in the future." ”
Xiao Ye wanted to explain that he and Xia Jinxi were not boyfriend and girlfriend, but seeing the relief on Old Man Xia's face, and thinking that today was Old Man Xia's birthday, he didn't say anything.
Then, Old Man Xia introduced his old comrades-in-arms to Xiao Ye one by one, these people may not be rich and rich, but they have decades of savings, and they are all people with a little face, and they can help in various fields. Old Man Xia looked like he was paving the way for his future grandson-in-law, and his sincere care made Xiao Ye's heart warm slightly.
As he was talking, another group of people came in from outside the door, looking at their appearances and clothes, and they were all worth a lot of money.
At the front was an old man in his sixties, dark and thin, with a pair of triangular eyes hidden under reading glasses.
"Lao Xia, I haven't seen you for a long time. ”
"Yo, isn't this Lao Dou? Quick, come in. Today, our old comrades-in-arms can be regarded as all collected. Hahaha.... ”
Old Man Xia invited Lao Dou in, and everyone greeted each other.
Xiao Ye sat on the sofa, silent, sitting with a group of old men, slightly out of place.
When he turned his head, his gaze was opposite to that of the young man of the Dou family for a moment, and in just a moment, the other party rolled his eyes and looked away, obviously, in his eyes, he looked down on Xiao Ye very much.
However, when Xia Jinxi walked out of the kitchen with tea, his eyes became hot, and he stared at Xia Jinxi's delicate figure tightly and did not let go.
Xia Jinxi handed Xiao Ye a cup of tea, and added tea to the other old men, and when he came to the old Dou, the old Dou smiled and said:
"Lao Xia, you really gave birth to a good granddaughter, she looks like a Peugeot, and she will definitely be a beautiful woman in the future. ”
Old Man Xia was proud in his heart, but he chuckled and said:
"It's okay, it's okay to make do with one acre and three points of land in the south of the Yangtze River, but it won't work if you go out. ”
"Lao Xia, you are humble, hahahaha. Jiajun, you still haven't come up, send me the gift you prepared for your grandfather Xia?"
As soon as Lao Dou shouted, the young man immediately came back to his senses, and hurriedly carried a small box and stepped forward.
"Oh, here we are. ”
He handed the small box to Old Man Xia and smiled respectfully:
"Grandpa Xia, this is the elixir that my grandfather specially auctioned from the Jiangnan Auction House, please accept it with a smile. ”
"Pills?"
Old Man Xia frowned slightly, opened the box, and there was a black-brown pill the size of a glass ball lying quietly in the glass bottle.
"What kind of elixir is this?
"Hahaha, strengthen your body, then you are underestimating this elixir, this is the legendary longevity pill!"
"Longevity Pill?"
An old man next to him exclaimed, his eyes widening.
"What you said, could this be an elixir auctioned at the Jiangnan Auction House? I heard that this elixir can extend a person's life span by fifty years!"
"So powerful?"
Old Man Xia couldn't help but exclaim, and another comrade-in-arms immediately chimed in:
"I also know about this matter, it was personally confirmed by Yun Tiantian, the most famous doctor in our Jiangnan! It is said that this pill was made by a person named 'Xiao Ye', and when it was first auctioned, the average price of each pill was more than one billion soft girl coins, and this one, I'm afraid, is no exception. ”
"So valuable?"
Old Man Xia's hand shook, and he almost threw out the pill in his hand in fright.
Then, he hurriedly put the pill back into the box and handed it to Dou Jiajun.
"This gift is too expensive for me to accept. ”
Lao Dou immediately stood up and said:
"Hey~!Lao Xia, you're polite, who of the two of us is with whom? Besides, this is a child's heart, today is your birthday, can you still return the gift? This is also too unlucky. ”
Old Man Xia frowned and said:
"But old Dou, this is too precious!"
"Hehe, Lao Xia, in fact, I don't want to hide it from you. This elixir, when it comes, can be regarded as a gift from my grandson to congratulate you on your birthday, and it can also be regarded as a dowry gift. ”
"Dowry?"
Old Man Xia was suddenly confused.
Lao Dou smiled again.
"Lao Xia, my family is handsome, in fact, I have long had a heart for your granddaughter Jinxi. He once swore that in this life, he would not marry Jinxi. You and I are comrades-in-arms, and my family is also young and successful. Your granddaughter Jinxi is also a beautiful country. Talented and beautiful, coupled with the relationship between you and me, it happens to be a match made in heaven. This is the marriage between the two of them given by God, if you agree to Lao Xia, it will also fulfill the happiness of the two children's lives. Moreover, I assure you that if Jinxi comes to our Dou family, our Dou family will definitely treat her as a pearl in the palm of her hand, holding her in the palm of her hand, and will definitely not let her suffer the slightest grievance. ”
