Chapter Eighty-Six: Yan Zining
Ocean City is one of the large cities on the west side of the Central Continent, because of the convenient transportation and waterway, its scale is more than 100 times more than 100 times that of the town where Wenjin lives. The city is full of people day and night, and the streets are full of people and cars.
Ocean City is heavy on spices and fisheries, and the pastries and snacks are a must, and it has the reputation of "not eating pastries when you come to the ocean, such as walking at night without lighting the lights". And our story focuses on a little girl who is queuing up and thinking about the special pastry "fish cake".
Yan Zining held her white little hand, eagerly probed her brain, and looked at the long queue, her heart was full of eagerness. She couldn't wait to taste the crispy, unscented fishy fish cakes, like a desert man craving the refreshing and sweet spring water.
Wiping a trace of crystal from her mouth, Yan Zining secretly cheered for herself in her heart: "The old lady is not afraid of waiting, the old lady has patience, the old lady doesn't want to eat fish cakes!" At the same time, she stood on tiptoe, her eyes were a little red, like a hungry wolf looking for prey, "The old lady doesn't want to eat fish cakes, the old lady wants to eat fish cakes!" ”
Half an hour later, Yan Zining clutched a bag full of fish cakes, secreted saliva frantically in her mouth, and walked down the street with her head held high. Mixed in the dense flow of people, she was complacent: "The old lady has just the right time, the last pack of fish cakes!" ”
As an immortal cultivator, Yan Zining faintly felt that someone was following her, casting her eyes in her direction. But she didn't care, as the fourth lady of the Yan family, she would have a master guarding her wherever she went, and she was used to it.
"It's still more important to have fish cakes, which is more in line with the old lady's wishes." Yan Zining hugged the fish cake, as if she was holding something important. In order to taste the delicious food as soon as possible, she inadvertently used the power of an immortal cultivator to shuttle through the crowd like a swimming fish.
The way home was not short, it was not long, and under Yan Zining's hurried hurry, she soon saw the door of her house. The gate of Yan's house is beautifully repaired, with stone carved lions on both sides, and the mahogany façade reflects the sunlight, and there are two golden dragons carved on it, which are vivid, as if they will fly to the sky in the next moment.
As one of the three major immortal cultivation families in Ocean City, such a façade is not an exaggeration at all. The Yan family, the Jin family, and the Li family are also known as the three leading dragons of Ocean City, and in addition to those high-ranking sects, the three are the most powerful.
The servant who greeted him outside the door respectfully pushed open the door, and with the sound of squeaking, the fourth lady of the Yan family walked back to the house with a bag of fish cakes with her head held high. Taking a long breath, Yan Zining, who was finally able to taste the food, couldn't wait to open the bag full of fish cakes and twist a piece out of it.
The surface of the kamaboko is fried until golden brown, as if gold crumbs are sprinkled on it. Under the skin of Huang Cancan, there is a mixture of spirit goat's milk and bluetail fish, a white swaying piece. The mouth is crispy at first, then full of creamy aroma, with a slightly salty taste, which melts as soon as you bite it.
Yan Zining put a piece of fish cake in her mouth, and was immediately conquered by the delicious taste, squinted her eyes comfortably, muttered and hummed a song while eating, and walked towards her bedroom. Throwing another piece into her mouth, she thought to herself, "The old lady's taste is really good." ”
Just as he was proud, a young man in a gorgeous brocade dress with a pale face came out of the corner on the side. The young man shook the paper fan and walked forward with figure-eight steps, and at a glance he caught a glimpse of Yan Zining, who was stuffing fish cakes into his mouth.
The corners of his mouth hooked up a playful smile, the young man shook the paper fan lightly, his eyes revealed disgust, and a trace of disdain that was well hidden, and said lightly: "Little sister, eat your beloved fish cake again?" He frowned, "It's still so naïve." ”
Yan Zining stopped the action of sending fish cakes to her mouth, gritted her teeth and clenched her fists. She now wants to reply very much, "My mother just loves to eat, you can't care about it", but reason finally overcame impulse, and just gritted her teeth and said: "Second brother, I'm naïve." ”
Seeing Yan Zining's stubborn appearance, the second brother raised his eyebrows, heheed, and said, "Little sister, as far as I know, the Lingqing Sect enrollment ceremony is about to start, I don't know if you are ready?" He lowered his voice, "I've heard that my father takes this opportunity very seriously, so don't let him down." ”
The second brother patted Yan Zining's shoulder, looking at her silent figure, quite disappointed. He originally thought that if Yan Zining retorted, he could justifiably put on his brother's shelf and bully him, no, it should be a lesson for this fourth sister.
As a result, I didn't expect Yan Zining to be very old, but the city government was not small, and he suffered a dumb loss, but he didn't say anything about it, which made him very disappointed as a second brother. He had no choice but to say, "If you lose this time, the consequences will be very serious." ”
After that, the second brother gently shook the paper fan and walked forward, and when he passed by Yan Zining's side, he bumped into her lightly. Looking at the second brother who was gradually moving away, Yan Zining stood silently in place, and after a while, she shook her head violently, and muttered a little aggrievedly: "I know that I am not afraid of bullying the old lady, the old lady is not afraid, well, the old lady is not afraid." ”
Among the younger generation of the Yan family, the eldest brother Yan Zhongwu was favored by the Lingqing Sect early and accepted as an inner disciple, which is the pride of the family and the name that is often mentioned in the mouth of the head of the Yan family. The third brother Yan Zhongwen is just the opposite, he is a prodigal who does not learn and has no skills.
The second brother Yan Zhonghe and the fourth sister Yan Zining are regarded as the two most likely to inherit the family business. For this reason, the second brother did not squeeze out Yan Zining, and he did not care about Yan Zining as a woman, maybe he would inherit no more family property than him.
However, the second brother was not so obvious before, but recently, for some reason, this kind of exclusion has become more and more exposed on the surface and more and more presumptuous. For example, the personal maid who made things difficult for Yan Zining openly criticized Yan Zining in front of her father, and there were countless such actions.
To add insult to injury, their father Yan Xiong preferred the second brother Yan Zhonghe, and he was convinced of what he said, and his attitude towards Yan Zining became worse and worse, and even the subordinates who listened to the rumors began to talk about Yan Zining, saying that she had lost the trust of the head of the family.
For Yan Zining, these changes undoubtedly put her at a low point in her life, but this stubborn little girl did not give in, but chose to bear all this. However, the increasing pressure has made her life not easy, and even her favorite kamaboko does not taste so good.
"God, why is my mother so unlucky." After the second brother left, Yan Zining looked up at the sky sadly, then took a bite of the fish cake fiercely, and muttered, "If there is a way to break the game...... That's it. ”
