Chapter Ninety-Five: Up and Down
"Steward, S......ir," exclaimed one of the servants excitedly, as he hurried into the hall.
"Don't talk nonsense. Xu Hui's face turned and he said, "The old man is still the deputy chief now, and if you want to talk nonsense, the old man will punish you for the crime of lying nonsense." ”
The man shuddered, and hurriedly bowed his head and said, "Yes." ”
Xu Hui's expression was slightly gloomy, and he said slowly: "What's going on, so panicked." ”
The subordinate said respectfully: "Deputy chief, the son is back." ”
"Ah, Yi'er is back?"
"Yes. ”
"Waste, why didn't you say it earlier. Xu Hui glared at him angrily, "Who else?"
"It's Childe alone. The next person looked sad, after seeing the son come back, he was overjoyed, and rushed to report the news, but he was scolded for no reason, and he couldn't help but regret it in his heart.
"There was only one person. Xu Hui frowned slightly and hurriedly left the room.
The father greeted his son, which was actually unreasonable, but Xu Hui knew in his heart where he came from for the position of chief manager, so he couldn't care so much.
In the hall of the Qiaoqi Pavilion, Xu Yi clearly felt the change in the attitude of the rest of the people towards him.
The last time he came back, he was only the son of the director of the appraisal room, and because Gu Bin was against his father, even the people in the appraisal room didn't dare to get too close to him.
But this time it was completely different, as soon as he entered the Skillful Weapon Pavilion, he was led to the VIP hall and served the best tea, and even the hall steward personally accompanied him and waited carefully.
Xu Yi knew in his heart that it was estimated that these stewards knew what happened last time, and they also knew that they had a great relationship with the first peak, so they became so groveling. Otherwise, even if Xu Hui had already taken over the power of the Qiaoqi Pavilion, these middle-level stewards with their own abilities and backgrounds would not be so stammering.
After a while, Xu Hui finally arrived, and after congratulating the stewards, they left the space for them.
"Dad, congratulations. Xu Yi said with a smile, "Sure enough, people are in good spirits on happy occasions, and you look a few years younger." ”
"Well, I don't know what it's like to be a father. Xu Hui waved his hand, but his eyes looked out intentionally or unintentionally.
"Don't look at it, I'm going down the mountain alone this time. Xu Yi naturally knew his thoughts, so he simply named him.
"Why did you go down the mountain alone and not invite some senior sisters and sisters? Xu Hui was a little dissatisfied.
When he heard the old man directly say his senior sister and sister, and he didn't even hide it, Xu Yi understood that he was really in a hurry.
"Hehe, don't worry, Dad, it's enough for me to go down the mountain. Xu Yi comforted, "Now that the child is already a disciple of the First Peak, as long as he stays in the Genius Peak for a year, he can enter the mountain to practice." Besides, in addition to the appreciation of the first peak, the child also has a certain attainment in alchemy, and in a few months, he will represent the sect to participate in the Dandao tasting conference. With these two identities, your Skillful Pavilion Manager is as stable as Mount Tai, and no one will touch you. ”
"Neiding, and Dan Dao?" Xu Hui's eyes flashed, and he couldn't tell whether he was surprised or happy, but he immediately glared and said, "Nonsense, the identity of the head of the father is obtained by his own efforts, don't talk nonsense." ”
Xu Yi was stunned, don't you really have a little number in your heart?
However, looking at the old father's fierce and introverted appearance, he couldn't help but laugh dumbly: "Yes, yes, it's the child who said it wrong, all of this is your hard work, you have worked hard." ”
Xu Hui nodded with satisfaction, of course he knew this, but if he wanted him to admit it, it would be unlikely.
Anyway, Xu Yi is his son, and Lao Tzu oppresses his son, which is a matter of course. Besides, if my son is so good, isn't it because he teaches him well.
That night, Xu Hui held a banquet, and all the people in the Qiaoqi Pavilion, including Xin You, who was about to leave, participated.
The elated Xu Hui was naturally drunk, but no one dared to force Xu Yi to drink.
Xin You and Xu Yi came to the side where no one was.
The people who can be invited by Xu Hui are at least the directors of each room, the steward, and the deputy steward, although some of them are honest people who only know alchemy refiners, but they still have the most basic vision.
After seeing this scene, everyone knew that these two had something to say, so no one approached.
Xin You looked at Xu Yi and sighed lightly: "Hey, when we met for the first time, I knew that Little Brother Xu was not a thing in the pool. But I didn't expect you to rise so quickly, it's incredible. ”
Xu Yi smiled and said, "The little nephew can have today's achievements, and you also have a share of the credit." ”
Xin You was stunned and said in surprise: "What credit does the old man have?"
"If you hadn't escorted your little nephew up the mountain, your little nephew wouldn't have been able to worship the sect, and naturally he wouldn't have been able to achieve what he is today. Xu Yi said.
Xin You was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help laughing happily.
He naturally knew that this was Xu Yi's kind words, but he was still extremely happy in his heart.
I really didn't see the wrong person, this young man is not a person who forgets his roots.
"The old man has presided over the Qiaoqi Pavilion for more than ten years, and this time he can get the opportunity to be released, which can be regarded as a promotion, and I always want to thank you. Xin You said solemnly, "If it weren't for the name of the first peak, the old man might not have been able to get such a good opportunity this time." ”
Xin You's departure from Qiaoqi Pavilion this time was not a demotion or retirement, but a reuse. However, leaving in such a hurry was actually due to the location given to Xu Huiteng, and Xin You was quite satisfied with the place arranged.
Xu Yi smiled slightly, reached into his arms and took out an object and said: "The general manager is promoted, congratulations, this is a gift from the little nephew, please accept it." ”
Xin You hesitated for a moment, but still took it, it was a jade bottle.
His heart moved slightly, and he immediately remembered the things he had heard, and he couldn't help but look up.
Although he knew that it was rude to open it here, Xin You couldn't help but open the lid. With just one glance, he immediately closed the lid tightly.
"Thank you. ”
"Uncle Xin doesn't need to be polite, my father handed over, please take care of it. ”
"Don't worry, the old man guarantees his life, and there will be no accidents in this matter. Xin You patted his chest and reassured.
At night, Xu Yi sent his drunk father home and returned to the room where he had slept for more than ten years.
However, as he walked around the room, Xu Yi found that something seemed to be missing. He thought for a moment, then shook his head and smiled.
In the room of Genius Peak, there is a ground-level Dan furnace, as well as a large number of blank talismans and various talisman making tools.
After entering the mountain, because he had the endless vitality provided by the planetary visualization objects in the upper dantian, he has been replacing sleep with cultivation and alchemy. And now that he is back in town, he seems to have only one choice: sleeping.
Hey, I'm really working hard, and I'm not used to it.
Just as he lay down and wanted to get a rare sleep, his heart suddenly moved.
Faintly, he caught a hint of an unusual sound in his ears.
