Chapter 405, Mingu
"Xi'er, you don't seem to welcome Dad......"
An elegant male voice suddenly sounded at the door, and flower petals began to fall in the house, Ming Xi'er and Situ Xichen only felt a flower in front of them, and then a handsome-looking man appeared in the room, and when his body was fixed, the petals in the sky disappeared in an instant, as if they had never appeared at all.
Situ Xichen's eyes narrowed slightly, but there was a trace of surprise in his eyes, according to the attitude of the people of the Fumeng country towards the Ming family and Zhang Yiming's submissive appearance, he guessed a lot of questions about the image of this Ming Gu in his heart, but he never expected that the latter was actually such a personable man, and the elegant temperament in his gestures was really difficult for people to associate him with the domineering head of the Ming family, and looking at his appearance, it was only about twenty years old.
But Situ Xichen didn't feel that this was a superficial man at all because of his appearance, not to mention what the outside world said about him, just from the wise aura revealed in this man's eyebrows, it was enough to judge that he was definitely not a simple character.
"May I ask who you are?"
When Ming Gu entered the door, he naturally immediately found that there was one more person in the house that he didn't know, of course, he had to ask immediately, he had to understand all the big and small things up and down in the Ming Mansion, not to mention that there was suddenly such a big living person, and looking at the appearance of his daughter, the two were quite familiar with each other, he would never have that kind of idea of judging people by their appearance, the moment he saw Situ Xichen, he judged that Situ Xichen was a man by virtue of his Adam's apple.
"Sir! Subordinates are guilty! ”
Hearing Ming Gu's inquiry, Zhang Yiming knelt down directly without thinking about it, and said in a trembling voice:
"You asked your subordinates to find a teacher for Miss, but the people in the house are all empty of fighting talent but no teaching ability, and your subordinates choose teachers from the outside world so that Miss can get a better education......
"I didn't ask you."
Minggu didn't even glance at Zhang Yiming, who was kneeling on the ground, and when the latter heard this, he suddenly froze, and immediately stopped talking, in this family, he Minggu is the sky.
"Under Situ Xichen, a spiritual-level student of the seminary, he was hired to be a teacher and escort for Miss Xi'er."
Situ Xichen bowed slightly to Ming Gu, his face was not flustered, but he didn't know what Ming Gu's temperament was, so he mentioned the name of the seminary in advance.
"That's a snub of that."
Ming Gu waved his hand lightly and motioned for Situ Xichen to sit down, and he also sat down opposite, and said with a smile:
"Since you are a seminary student, and you are so young and promising, you still don't know how to inherit your teacher?"
Hearing Situ Xichen first put forward the name of the seminary, Ming Gu secretly said "cautious little ghost", but the expression on his face still did not change, and he casually asked about his teacher, for the existence of the seminary that is stomping and shaking three times in the world, Ming Gu naturally can't be unclear about anything, with Situ Xichen's age and current cultivation, he must already have his own exclusive teacher, and he also knows something about these people.
"The younger generation inherits the Wei Jue."
Situ Xichen smiled, but he laughed secretly in his heart, he shouldn't know a person like Xiao Jue who has a bad reputation in the academy.
"Nightmare ......"
When Ming Gu heard this name, his face fell into thought as Situ Xichen expected, and then he suddenly seemed to remember something, and said:
"I have the impression, if I'm not mistaken, it should be Dean Cao's junior brother, right, although I haven't met Jiazun, but I still have heard of it, but I heard that he doesn't accept disciples, how did he set a precedent this time?"
Now it was Situ Xichen's turn to be surprised, Wei Jue was famous for his poor popularity among the faculty and staff of the college, even many students didn't know that there was such a teacher in the college, but he didn't expect Ming Gu to be so clear, and he even knew that Wei Jue and the principal were brothers, but he had heard the word "Dean Cao" for the first time, and only now did he know that the dean of their college was surnamed Cao.
"It seems that the seniors know a lot about the affairs of our seminary."
Although he didn't receive the kind of pleasure that Ming Gu was expecting, Situ Xichen was really surprised by the accuracy and breadth of his intelligence network.
"I'm ashamed."
Mingu picked up a teacup from the table, added a cup of tea to himself, took a sip and said with a smile:
"When I was young, I was invited to teach at your hospital, but I visited once, but at that time, Xi'er's grandfather was already in his twilight years and could not manage the family affairs.
Hearing this, the corners of Situ Xichen's mouth couldn't help twitching, "When you were young"? You don't look like you're in your thirties now! It seems that in this world, the true age of a person cannot be judged by appearance.
But what really shocked him was what he said about teaching, even if it was pushed back to a hundred years ago, the seminary was a leading existence in the world situation, and there was no shortage of people in the academy who were gods and emperors, but Minggu had received an invitation from the academy in the past, and it seemed that everyone had their own unique side, and it was not without reason that they could override the country with the power of the family.
"I see."
When Situ Xichen heard this, he immediately smiled, arched his hand at Ming Gu, and his attitude was even more respectful, and said:
"Then the junior is going to call you 'teacher'."
"That's all in the past, what does it have to do with me now, although I don't know your teacher, but it can be regarded as fate, if you don't mind, just call me 'uncle'."
Ming Gu waved his hand, but he had a new definition of Situ Xichen in his heart, this young man seemed to be unworldly, and he only knew politeness when he spoke, but under a few words, he had faintly begun to have the posture of controlling the initiative, and the two of them only talked for more than ten minutes, but they were able to bring the relationship closer to this point, and it must not be the first time to deal with this situation.
"That junior, but it's disrespectful, uncle."
Situ Xichen is not polite, a mouthful of "uncle" is also called kind, what he wants is this result, if the content of the conversation directly enters his mission this time, it will inevitably seem abrupt, like this, it is almost a relationship, and even if he doesn't pay attention when he speaks or Minggu is not satisfied with this matter, the latter may not have a chance to get angry.
And Ming Gu actually knows his teacher, this matter is to add a grade to the safety factor of his trip, since he knows that Wei Jue is the principal's junior brother, it means that he will also have a certain status in the academy, as long as he does not do too much, Ming Gu will not be able to disadvantage himself.
Ming Xi'er and Zhang Yiming on the side were dumbfounded, it's only been a few minutes? Situ Xichen actually called him "uncle", if the two of them talked for a while, maybe even distant relatives could be pulled out, and Situ Xichen's level of conversation was almost up to the standard of formal negotiation.
Situ Xichen thought carefully about how Minggu couldn't hear it, he just thought that this young man was very interesting, this kind of personality like to grasp the initiative at the negotiation table and lead the opposite nose to the opposite side was the same as when he was young, and this was not a big deal, so he continued with the topic of the former.
"By the way, let's talk about the little girl."
Minggu felt that the time was almost up, so he began to shift the topic to the place where it should be, and said with a smile:
"Since you are from the seminary, then I have nothing to object, although the students taught by the academy are uneven, but I can also trust it, I have nothing to worry about when Xi'er's child is handed over to you, I will arrange a room for you to live in later, I am very much looking forward to what kind of talent you can cultivate the little girl into."
"Ling Qianjin's talent is not low, she is originally a talent, and what the younger generation can do is just icing on the cake."
Situ Xichen smiled:
"But since my uncle loves him, the younger generation should do his best."
"Oh?"
Minggu put down the teacup in his hand and said with a smile:
"You've already seen the strength of the little girl? Let's talk about it. ”
"This old fox, set me ......"
Situ Xichen couldn't help but sink in his heart when he heard him ask, it seems that his guess just now is probably already eight or nine, Ming Xi'er's weird divine power should be "jealousy", and Ming Gu's remarks are completely leading him into his trap.
"Very good."
Situ Xichen's face remained unchanged, and said with a smile:
"Ling Qianjin's foundation is still very good, she should be regarded as a leader in the same level, if she is not a person with special circumstances, she will definitely not be comparable to her, but this divine power ......"
"Huh? What happened to the divine powers? ”
Ming Gu pretended to be completely unaware, showing a look of concern, after all, it was his daughter, and it would be too fake to say that he didn't care at all.
"Forgive the juniors."
Situ Xichen showed a thoughtful look on his face, as if he was still hovering between saying and not saying, and finally said it, saying:
"In the short fight just now, the juniors felt that Xi'er's divine power was a little weird, but after feeling it carefully, they didn't find anything wrong, and they couldn't say what the inappropriateness was, after all, the juniors were only shallow in learning, so maybe they felt wrong."
After Minggu continued to ask questions just now, Situ Xichen's heart was a pang, which made him even more sure that Ming Xi'er's divine power was "jealousy", and it was almost completely certain that Minggu knew about it, at this time, it was the right choice to answer in line with his identity, ordinary people must be a little stretched when they have the divine power of the blessing of original sin, although the power of original sin on Ming Xi'er's body is not very obvious, but he is almost two levels higher than the latter, More or less he should still feel something, if he said, "I didn't feel anything abnormal, it's normal", Minggu would doubt him, it would be better to say half hide and half hide, so as to dispel his last suspicions.
When Ming Gu heard his answer, his brows couldn't help but tremble, and he immediately said with a smile:
"That should be your perception is wrong, the little girl's growth every day is under my care, and there will be no problems."
