Chapter 5: Encounters with Enemies

At the Ding family banquet at noon, Ding Yuan, who was slightly drunk, excitedly introduced his son to his generals, and Ding Xiao was also a little excited when he saw these generals, especially Gao Shun and Zhang Liao.

You must know that these people are his original team, and if you want to make achievements in the future, you mainly have to rely on these people in front of you.

"Big brother, let's say okay, if you don't get drunk today, you won't return, come, do it!"

"Brother Wenyuan, the younger brother will give you a cup, and I will ask the elder brother to bring the younger brother more in the future."

"Brother Shun, we hit it off at first sight, we must have a few more drinks today......"

He is the son of Ding Yuan, and he is the new young master of everyone, even Lu Bu has to give him a few thin noodles, and others can't refuse his toast.

In addition, everyone is young, although Ding Xiao is younger, he is better than sweet-mouthed, and he will soon get along with the generals.

Everyone had a great time and drank happily.

After three rounds of drinking, Ding Yuan turned his head and said to Lu Bu Ding Xiao's request, "Fengxian, Xiao'er is determined to join the army, I think let him follow you, and you can bring him more in the future." ”

"Uh," Lu Bu was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly excused himself, "Father-in-law, how can he condescend to the cloth tent with his golden body?" I also ask my father-in-law to take back his fate. ”

"Hey, I also think that Xiao'er's physique is deviant, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to bear the pain of going to the barracks, but he has made up his mind, and he has to join the army, and it is useless for me to persuade him." Ding Yuan smiled and sighed, then patted the back of Lu Bu's hand and said, "But if you let him follow you, I will be relieved." ”

"Father-in-law, but ......"

Lu Bu wanted to excuse himself a few more words, but was interrupted by Ding Yuan with a smile, "That's it." I, Ding Yuan, am such a son, and you are the person I trust the most, so I can only hand him over to you. ”

“…… Be! ”

Ding Yuan had already said this, and Lu Bu couldn't excuse himself anymore, so he could only nod and agree.

"Thank you father, thank you big brother!"

After Ding Yuan announced this decision, Ding Xiao hurriedly stepped forward to thank him, followed by another round of toasts.

Although the wine here is water wine, the degree is not high, but it can't stand the crowd, Ding Xiao drank it one by one, and drank a lot unconsciously, a little drunk and hazy, so he returned to the Thorn Mansion first, and fell asleep.

Unexpectedly, in the evening, Ding Yuan sent someone over to call him to the banquet.

"Going for a drink again?"

Tong'er was a little unhappy, "Young Master, you are injured, and you can't drink it at night." ”

"Don't worry, it should only be people close to my father at night, I don't think there will be too many people, and I definitely won't drink so much anymore."

As he spoke, Ding Xiao rubbed his somewhat swollen head and walked out of the room.

But when he arrived at the place, he found that he had thought wrongly, and there were actually not many people who came at night, and there were a total of more than a dozen tables of people sitting in the courtyard of the house, and most of these people were dressed in brocade and satin, and they were obviously not from the barracks.

"Xiao'er is here, come and see your uncles." Ding Yuan greeted from afar.

"I've seen all the uncles." Ding Xiao hurriedly stepped forward and saluted.

"Excuse me, we have been friends with your father for many years, and the virtuous nephew does not have to see each other."

"Haha, congratulations to Ding Thorn for reuniting father and son!"

"Ding Gongzi has beautiful eyebrows and talents, and he is really a tiger father without a dog!"

"Yes, with this tiger, why worry about having no successor to such a big foundation? Ha ha. ”

Several middle-aged people held wine glasses, and words of praise were endless.

"Whereever, you have a good reputation. Xiao'er grew up in the countryside since she was a child, and she has never seen much of the world, so she will have to rely on your support in the future. Ding Yuan said a few words modestly, and then introduced everyone at the main table to Ding Xiao one by one.

Some of these people are local officials, some are rich and noble squires, and most of them are famous people in Hanoi County.

Ding Yuan saw that there were a lot of people, and they all brought heavy congratulatory gifts, so he arranged for people to set up a banquet to entertain everyone.

"Thank you uncles for your love, Ding dispels panic, and does it first as a respect!"

Ding Xiao stepped forward and toasted one by one, silently remembering everyone's names and identities.

The rise of a force, in addition to elite soldiers and strong generals, also has to rely on a large amount of financial support, these people have a good relationship with Ding Yuan, and naturally they are also the objects that Ding Xiao will strive to win over in the future.

However, these people are Ding Yuan's connections after all, and for the sake of long-term development, Ding Xiao actually pays more attention to the construction of his own network, so he moves his attention to those small forces on other tables.

"I've seen Childe! I am the head of the Liu family, and I welcome my son to come to the house as a guest when he is free. ”

"Ding Gongzi, I am the shopkeeper of Zhouji Rice Grain Store, I respect Gongzi for a cup."

"Childe, in Xia Wangfu, there are seven fabric shops in Hanoi, come and measure the size when you come back, and I will ask someone to make you a few clothes......"

These country gentlemen were very enthusiastic, and they were even more flattered to see Ding Xiao toasting from table to table, and they all drank to their heart's content, releasing enough kindness to him.

After turning around a few tables, Ding Xiao felt a little overwhelmed.

"It's not okay to drink it like this, and when I go back in a while, I have to be counted down by Tong'er......"

Just as Ding Xiao was thinking about how to drink less, he inadvertently skimmed it, but unexpectedly saw a few acquaintances.

His eyes lit up and he walked straight over.

"Several, meet again." Ding Xiao smiled and said hello.

“…… It's you! ”

"This ...... How is this possible? ”

After several young people saw Ding Xiao's appearance clearly, their faces changed wildly, and they hurriedly stood up one by one, as if they were facing a great enemy.

It turned out that these young people were the same group of people who kicked Ding Xiao that day, and after learning the news of Ding Yuan's recognition of his son today, they were brought by their respective fathers, wanting them to make friends with Ding Xiao.

None of them thought that the country boy in front of them would be Ding Yuan's son, and the only son!

"Ding, Ding Gongzi, the incident of the day was a misunderstanding......"

One of the young people reacted quickly, and immediately picked up his wine glass and put on a smiling face, "I'll do it first as a respect, and I hope you won't be surprised!" ”

As soon as he reminded him, the others followed suit and poured a full glass of wine into their stomachs.

"Hehe, it's just a little thing."

Ding Xiao smiled slightly, did not hold others responsible, but just set his eyes on the person who did it.

The others are just accomplices, he doesn't need to kill them all, but this person in front of him has already kicked his predecessor to death, and he must pay for his life!

"Uh, Ding Gongzi, I don't know Taishan with my eyes, and I ask Gongzi to forgive me!" The man shuddered at the sight and hurriedly apologized.

"Hehe, you're very majestic!"

Ding Xiao smiled and gently patted the other party's shoulder.

At the same time, he quietly activated the skill, "Mandatory Marking"!

I saw that the green light of his fingertips flashed away, and an illusory green cartoon frog appeared out of thin air a foot above the head of the person opposite.

This frog is brightly colored and has a faint green light on its body, which is very eye-catching.

The most special thing is that this frog also blinks from time to time, which makes it look lifelike.

"Uh, love to tease frogs?!"

After being stunned for a moment, Ding Xiao was shocked, and he came down with a cold sweat, "Damn, the special effects of this skill are so eye-catching, how can I go to the Yin People?!" ”
