"Then since there are no opinions, let's wait for the dinner." Jian Ning finally said.

At this time, Xiahou Yan was thinking about another question, just now Jian Ning mentioned the little girl Jiu'er. If it was really as Jian Ning said, the identity of this little girl surprised him.

"Miss Jane, Leshan, the owner of the village is back. I heard that Miss Jane is here, and she has already asked people to set up a banquet, and now I specially asked me to invite you over. Yan Qing said after knocking on the door.

"Okay, Uncle Yan wait a minute, I'll go over." Jian Ning thought in her heart that the owner of the village came back in time, just like the calculation, early or late.

The dinner was set up in the flower hall next to the main hall, and when Jian Ning passed, she happened to meet an old lady with gray hair but still in good spirits at the door.

"The little girl Jian Ning has seen the old lady." Just looking at this old lady's clothes and momentum, Jian Ning had already guessed that she was the old lady of this Ziwei Villa. Jian Ning smiled and saluted her.

"Hehe, get up! There aren't so many rules with my old woman. As she spoke, the old lady came over kindly and held Jian Ning's hand.

Jian Ning just let the old lady take her hand and followed the old lady towards the banquet.

"Hey, you kid is really pitiful. A girl is helpless, and she has to support a restaurant, which must be very hard! After the old lady pulled Jian Ning to sit down, she asked with a look of pity.

"Old Madam Xie cares. But fortunately, there is a senior brother who has been helping Ning'er, and Ning'er is not too tired. Jian Ning said and looked at Liu Leshan with a smile.

The old lady followed Jian Ning's gaze and looked at Liu Leshan, and said with an appreciative expression: "Your child is becoming more and more mature and stable. Remember when you first came with your master four years ago, you were still a shy kid who followed behind your master's ass! ”

"The old lady has won the prize. Master is gone. If Leshan can't hold up the food garden. How can you be worthy of Master's spirit in heaven? Worthy of the trust of my sister! Liu Leshan replied with a light smile.

"Hahaha, I really shouldn't be, I'm late, so my mother and Miss Jane have been waiting for a long time." As he was talking, he heard a majestic male voice coming in.

As soon as Jian Ning looked up, she saw a burly man dressed in a beautiful blue antique satin brocade robe, with a black cloud pattern silver belt tied around his waist, walking in.

The man had a slightly darker complexion and a beard. A pair of sparkling eyes. Jian Ning looked at the man who came in so openly, he should be Yao Su, the owner of the villa. Although he is now nearly forty years old, it is precisely this age that gives him a unique momentum of superiority.

When Jian Ning was looking at Yao Su, Yao Su was also looking at this bold and beautiful woman.

Since he met Jian Baiwei, he has also heard a lot about his daughter Jian Ning. The news he heard at the beginning made Yao Su feel that this girl should be a girl with a bold personality and a big grin. Later, when he heard her news, Yao Su felt that this was a good dish that could be cooked. A strong woman who is self-reliant and self-reliant.

However, this kind of speculation was completely broken at the moment when Yao Su saw Jian Ning. The girl in front of her had a stunning face. Clear eyes, a natural noble aura, even if you sit there quietly, it doesn't seem to be ignored. Such a woman can be said to be not at all like a cook's daughter, but like a noble lady.

What he admires most is her straightforwardness and boldness, even in the face of him, there is no fear or a woman's shyness on her face, but she looks at him so directly, looking at him unabashedly.

"Brother Jane's daughter is really extraordinary!" After a long time, Yan sù broke the silence with a smile and walked towards Jian Ning and the old lady.

"The little girl Jian Ning has seen Master Yao." Jian Ning also got up and saluted respectfully to Yao Su.

"Alright, sit down! You don't have to be polite here, just like at home. Yao Su said to Jian Ning with a smile. He also sat in the main seat.

Liu Leshan also stood up at this time and saluted the owner.

Yao Su said with a smile: "I haven't seen you for a year, you are a lot more mature than before!" ”

Liu Leshan replied politely: "The owner of the village praised it falsely. After going through such things, if Leshan is still the same as before, then I am very sorry for the master. ”

Yao Su smiled and nodded, agreeing.

Yao Su looked around the table at this time, and suddenly asked a maid behind him with a little anger: "What about the second lady and the young master?" Why can't you see it? ”

"Back to the owner, the second lady said that she was a little unwell today, so she didn't come out. The two young masters have not yet returned. The maid replied respectfully.

Jian Ning was even more puzzled in her heart, on this occasion, Yao Su directly skipped the owner's wife, and didn't even ask, but asked the second lady, it seems that this owner's wife should have committed a lot of things!

But after all, this is someone's family matter, Jian Ning is a guest, and he is a junior, so he definitely shouldn't care, and he shouldn't even ask. Yes, Jian Ning sat quietly beside Liu Leshan.

"These two bastards, they know how to fool around outside all day long, it's really begging!" As soon as Yao Su heard the maid's words, he immediately shouted angrily, as if he had completely forgotten that there were still Jian Ning and them here.

"Ahem! Okay, okay, if they don't come, you don't have to. Let's have a meal, everyone must be hungry. At this time, the old lady coughed lightly twice and reminded.

"That's what Mother said." As soon as Yan sù heard the old lady's words, he immediately calmed down and said to Yan Qing behind him, "Let's serve!" ”

After a while, a plate of dishes was served, which can be described as a delicacies of the mountains and seas! This meal is the most expensive meal that Jian Ning has eaten since she went out. But it's not the best, just in terms of taste, the dishes made by the proprietress of the Osmanthus Inn are also good.

"Your father and I are friends, and we are also your elders, so let's call you Ning'er." Yao Su took the wine glass and said to Jian Ning with a smile, "Ning Er came to Ziwei Villa this time to compete in Douyi Village. ”

"Well, the owner is right. Early tomorrow morning, we will leave for Jingding Prefecture. Jian Ning has always maintained a suitable smile, neither appearing too enthusiastic nor indifferent and detached.

"Ning'er, don't call me the owner, the owner, if you want, call me Uncle Yao." Yao Su listened to Jian Ning keep calling him the owner, and then said with a smile.

"Uncle Yao." Jian Ning was not pretentious, and shouted politely. In fact, after the second lady's incident just now, she had no intention of having much to do with Ziwei Villa, but this Yao Zhuang owner and the old lady were very kind to her, so they called it.

Yao Su smiled and nodded, very satisfied. Then he immediately asked: "I heard that Ning Er said that she was going to leave tomorrow, why did you rush so much?" It is less than a day's journey from Douyi Village, so you can stay in the village for two more days! ”

"Thank you Uncle Yao for your kindness. However, Uncle Yao may not know that Ning'er can't ride in a carriage for a long time, so the road is extremely slow, and she often stops to rest, so it is really inconvenient to stay for a long time. Jian Ning replied truthfully.

"Oh, I see!" Yao Su nodded a little surprised.

"I don't think anything will happen to Jingding Prefecture this time, but if Ning Er can pass the Jingding Prefecture competition, the journey to Kyoto is really long. The road was not very safe, but my uncle needed to send a few guards to follow. Yao Su said with a concerned face.

"My old woman thought it was a good idea. Ning'er is a girl, so she really needs to be careful. The old lady had been listening quietly beside her, and when she heard Yao Su propose this proposal, she also smiled and agreed.

Jian Ning frowned slightly, but she didn't come out. This Yao Zhuang owner is also too enthusiastic about himself, and he always feels that something is wrong.

"Thank you Uncle Yao and the old lady for your kindness. However, Ning Er also brought a few guards with her, so presumably there should be no problem along the way. Although the guards of Ziwei Villa are good, it is a bit overkill to stay by Ning Er's side. Jian Ning replied politely, and her eyes also turned to Xiahou Yan and Su Tong.

Yao Su followed her line of sight and glanced at the people standing behind Jian Ning and Liu Leshan, and felt that the kung fu of these two people should also be good. Especially the man, who sometimes didn't even feel his skill at all. And there was a terrifying aura on his body, but when he wanted to investigate more closely, he couldn't feel the slightest thing.

In such a situation, if it is not for this man's empty appearance, it is too unfathomable.

And at this moment, Xiahou Yan didn't care about Yao Su's gaze at all, but kept looking at Jian Ning, and his heart was depressed and angry. actually compared himself to those killers who did not enter the stream. If those unpopular killers are overkill to serve her as escorts, then wouldn't she be even more overkill. And Jian Ning is now calling herself more and more easily!

"Since Ning'er said so, I won't insist on it." Yao Su was silent for a while and said lightly.

After a while, he took out a token from his arms, handed it to Jian Ning and said, "Your father once saved my life and helped the old lady, but he didn't ask for anything." Ziwei Villa has always had clear grievances, this token will be given to you, if you encounter any danger in the rivers and lakes in the future, ordinary people will also take care of Ziwei Villa when they see this, and they dare not hurt your life lightly. Naturally, if you encounter danger, the people of Ziwei Villa will protect you desperately when they see it. ”

After speaking, he put the token in Jian Ning's hand. Jian Ning looked at this token, the words Ziwei Villa were written on the black face, and simple crape myrtle flowers were carved around it.

"Then thank you Uncle Yao for your kindness, and Ning'er accepted it." Jian Ning said and put the token into her arms. Ziwei Villa is still quite famous in the rivers and lakes, and it may not be possible that one day this token will really be of any use. (To be continued......)
