Chapter 3 This is Home
Lin Mansion covers an area of more than 300 acres, and even if you look at the entire Qingshan County, there is no mansion comparable to this scale. The majestic stone lions, the vermilion lacquer gate, and the samurai guarding the gate all declare the strength of the Lin Mansion and its inviolability.
As soon as Lin Xiao stepped into the Lin Mansion with his front foot, he saw a person running towards him.
"Brother, how are you? I heard that you were stopped by the Wang family, and you were about to rush over. ”
Looking at Lin Qi's worried face, Lin Xiao suddenly felt very happy, and a "sister" involuntarily called out.
Lin Xiao grinned and said with a smile: "It's okay." ”
Still not at ease, Lin Qi carefully looked at Lin Xiao's body, and only after confirming that Lin Xiao was really okay did he put his mind at ease.
Stroking Lin Xiao's little head, Lin Qi said dotingly: "It's okay." Don't worry, if I run into them in the future, I will definitely teach them a good lesson for my brother. ”
Lin Xiao clenched his small fists and nodded heavily.
Lin Qi had a vague feeling that Lin Xiao seemed to be a little different from before, at least he was much more active than before. Although he didn't understand what was going on, it was a good thing after all, and Lin Qi didn't have time to think about it, and then said: "Okay, then let's hurry home now! ”
Lin Qi loved Lin Xiao very much since he was a child, and he usually gave him all the delicious food at home. Later, knowing that Lin Xiao was pregnant with a waste body and could not cultivate, Lin Qi took more care of him, and was deeply afraid that he would be hurt a little.
Even she specifically threatened those young children of the Lin family, if she dared to bully Lin Xiao, she would definitely not give up. Otherwise, over the years, Lin Xiao would not have just been ridiculed by the clansmen.
And since then, Lin Qi has become more involved in cultivation, almost except for eating and sleeping, he has devoted himself to cultivation. Because she knew very well that in the Wuyuan Continent, especially in a cultivation family like the Lin family, everything spoke with strength. Only when she becomes stronger can she better protect Lin Xiao from being bullied.
Previously, she was cultivating, but as soon as she heard someone say that Lin Xiao was stopped by a few Wang family disciples on the street, she didn't say a word and ran straight out.
"How can I, Lin Fan, have a son like you, if my strength is not good, it is a matter of ability, but you don't even have the courage to be a man. What's so great about the disciples of the Wang family, why don't you dare to start with them. If you are beaten, you can't die. And in the end, Lin Yun came out for you, but you fled home alone and started to be a turtle with a shrunken head, how can you be a child of my Lin family. ”
Lin Fan, Lin Xiao's father. He had just come back from outside, apparently hearing that Lin Fan was "scared stupid" by the four Wang family children and finally fled alone regardless of the clan. It is inevitable that others will add some fuel and vinegar to their words, and they may even be mixed with some mocking words to embarrass Lin Fan. In short, as soon as Lin Fan entered the house, he scolded Lin Xiao.
"Brother Fan, Xiao'er is still young, don't scold him all the time, you see that you scared Xiao'er. It was Lin Fan's mother, Li Yuying, who spoke.
was scolded by Lin Fan, Lin Xiao didn't have any thoughts of resistance, and was even a little scared, even the chopsticks that were ready to pick up the dishes stayed in the air. Of course, this was definitely not Lin Xiao's reaction, but the dead Lin Xiao was affecting his state of mind.
"A loving mother is a loser, Lin Xiao is like this, and she is used to it. After Lin Fan finished speaking, he was about to leave in a huff. However, before leaving, he seemed to remember something again, and said coldly: "Lin Xiao, after eating, you come to my room." ”
After Lin Fan left, Li Yuying got up and came to Lin Xiao's side, stroked Lin Xiao's head, sighed, and said, "Don't blame your father, he is also very angry for a while, go back and talk about him." Mother thinks that what you did today is right, you are not their opponent, and if you talk back to them, you must endure hardships, there is nothing wrong with doing this. ”
Although the mother also hopes that her son can get ahead, she hopes that he can live a safe life. In Li Yuying's opinion, Lin Xiao is pregnant with a waste body, and it is impossible to get ahead, so she only hopes that Lin Xiao can be safe.
Lin Xiao is no longer a twelve-year-old child, he knows that Lin Fan's scolding of him is a kind of hatred that does not make steel, and it is a kind of deep responsibility of love.
There are two different approaches, but they both express love. At this moment, Lin Xiao completely recognized this family in his heart.
Wiping away the tears from the corners of his eyes, Lin Xiao said firmly in a childish voice: "Mother, you don't have to worry, Xiao'er knows that she is wrong." However, one day, Xiao'er will prove to everyone that Xiao'er is not a waste. ”
Li Yuying laughed and cried. She knew that for a child who was only twelve years old, Lin Xiao had already endured a lot. The name of waste made him breathless at all. It's been a long time, Li Yuying hasn't seen Lin Xiao's smile. This child is less childish than a lot of children, and more mature as an adult.
Without saying much, Li Yuying buried this little head deep in her arms.
Lin Qi also had tears in his eyes, and whimpered: "Mother, don't worry, Qi'er promised you that she would protect her younger brother for the rest of her life and never let him be bullied." ”
This is home, Lin Xiao understood and was moved, he knew that he would not be indifferent anymore. What should he do for the sake of this family, for the sake of so many relatives who love him. Although they don't love Lin Xiao at this moment, he is Lin Xiao, Lin Fan's son at this moment.
After eating, Lin Xiao came to Lin Fan's room. Seeing Lin Fan's eyes looking through the window, looking ahead, standing there in a daze, he didn't even notice Lin Xiao's arrival.
"Father. ”
Lin Xiao's call finally woke up Lin Fan, who was in deep thought. With his back to Lin Xiao, he didn't seem to want Lin Xiao to see the wetness in his eyes, so he replied: "It's here." ”
After a long time, when the wetness in his eyes completely dissipated, Lin Fan turned around, took out something from his arms, and handed it to Lin Xiao.
said: "After seven days, it will be the family coming-of-age ceremony, and you will have to participate in it then." And in the family, there will definitely be people who will challenge you. This is a heart bracelet that can protect you at a critical time, so that you don't lose too much. ”
Heart bracelet, a low-level magic weapon, can send out a barrier that only a samurai can break.
Seven days later, the seventh day of the lunar month, is the most important time of the year for the Lin family, and at this time, the whole family will get together. At that time, there will be two major events in the Lin family, one of which is the coming-of-age ceremony.
Wu Yuan Dalu, at the age of twelve, was already defined as an adult. And the Lin family also holds a coming-of-age ceremony for twelve-year-old children on the seventh day of the lunar month every year. When the time comes, all the clansmen will be present. And after receiving the coming-of-age ceremony, the family will send a disciple to challenge him. The meaning is obvious, from now on, you will start to get into combat. The Lin family believes that fighting is the best baptism for them.
Not only that, Lin Xiao also knew that there was another highlight after the coming-of-age ceremony, that is, the family competition. The purpose of the family competition is to arouse the cultivation of the clansmen, you must know that in the Lin family, the best way to prove yourself is to pass the family competition.
For the sake of fairness, the family competition is divided into two groups, one group under the age of 15 and the other group between the ages of 15 and 20. In last year's family competition, when Lin Qi had just entered adulthood, he won the top 14 in the family's juvenile group under the age of fifteen, which caused a sensation in the entire Lin family.
At the moment, all words are superfluous. After taking the heart bracelet, Lin Xiao turned around and left. When he was about to step out of the door, Lin Xiao left a sentence: "Thank you, father." I won't let you down. With that, he snatched the door and went out.
Lin Fan looked at Lin Xiao's departing figure, two lines of tears flowed from his cheeks, and said, "Xiao'er, you shouldn't have been born in the Xiuwu family. ”
