Chapter 71: Planting Trees (Part I)
Day 2.
The Li family, located in the north of the imperial capital, is the most prosperous area of the imperial capital.
It is said that the Li family made a fortune here more than a hundred years ago, until today, in the four ancient martial arts families, the Li family is not lost to anyone except the Cao family, plus in recent years, Li Dehui, the head of the Li family, has been successfully promoted to a third-grade alchemist, it can be said that the current Li family is in full swing!
At the edge of a pond in the Li family, an old man was holding fish feed in his hand, and the fish in the pond were scrambling to grab the fish feed.
Li Xuanqi walked over respectfully, "Grandpa, the Cao family has agreed, and we are one step closer to our plan." ”
"Oh? Agreed? Li Dehui sneered, put aside the fish feed in his hand, and said, "Xuanqi, you will go over to propose marriage in the near future, and I will give you the Turning Spirit Pill when the time comes." ”
"Grandpa, we have paid a lot of price for the Turning Spirit Pill, do we really want to cheapen the Cao family?" Li Xuanqi asked.
"Don't worry, when Cao Shuang enters our Li family, the day when our Li family becomes the head of the four major families of Guwu will not be far off."
"Is it so important to be a woman?" Li Xuanqi asked puzzled.
Cao Shuang looks really captivating the country and the city, but he Li Xuanqi doesn't have any woman, so there is no need to be cheeky and look for an iceberg-like woman every day, he will take the initiative to approach Cao Shuang just because of the task given to him by Li Dehui.
"Don't worry, grandpa, I have my own measure, you go down first." Li Dehui said.
"Yes." Li Xuanqi still didn't dare to disobey Li Dehui's words, after all, a large part of the Li family's success now is because of Li Dehui's identity.
After Li Xuanqi left, Li Dehui picked up the fish feed again, but this time he no longer sprinkled them one by one, but poured a whole bag directly into the fish pond.
Just as Li Dehui was looking at the fish pond, a figure in a black robe quietly appeared behind him.
"Black Protector, Cao Shuang is already bound to win, the benefits you said at the beginning?"
"Don't worry, as long as we can get Cao Shuang, we will naturally promise you benefits at that time." The black robe disappeared after saying this, as if it had never appeared.
"Cao Invincible, Cao Invincible, I'll make you happy for a while, and when I finish this matter, the Cao family will be our vassal family."
......
Xiao Zhongling got up early, and even got up in Bining City.
Early in the morning, he knocked vigorously on the door in front of Ningcheng's door.
"Brother Ningcheng, you lazy pig, Xiao Zhongling is up, you can't get up yet, the sun is drying your ass!"
Ning Cheng, who was still asleep, heard Xiao Zhongling's voice and felt a little more energetic, and couldn't help getting up and then opened the door.
"Brother Ningcheng, it's early!" Xiao Zhongling whispered.
"You little slippery head, if only you were so diligent in class!"
"Yes, yes, when I finish planting trees, I'll have a good class." Xiao Zhongling said expectantly.
"Okay, let's go wash up, Brother Ning Cheng is going to make breakfast."
"Good!"
It seems that because he is going to participate in this campus Arbor Day today, Xiao Zhongling seems very happy, seeing that Xiao Zhongling's face is full of innocent and lively smiles, Ning Cheng also feels sincerely happy.
Today, all first-grade students at No. 1 Primary School are going to participate in Arbor Day, and the school has set up buses in order to take into account the safety of students, so that parents and students will be safer at that time.
After breakfast, Xiao Zhongling hugged the peach tree sapling, took Ning Cheng's hand and went out happily, the destination was her school.
There are 10 buses parked in front of the school, which is very lively.
A group of elementary school students stood in groups waiting for their class teacher to arrive.
"Brother Ningcheng, where is our teacher!" Xiao Zhongling pointed in the direction of his class.
Ning Cheng looked at it, it turned out to be Lin Jing! The principal of this elementary school.
"The teacher in your class is Lin Jing?" Ning Cheng asked.
"Yes, Teacher Lin is still our homeroom teacher, she is good to us!" Xiao Zhongling said.
Ning Cheng nodded in some surprise, after all, the principal of an elementary school actually came to teach the first grade in person, it was relatively fresh to think about.
"Let's go, let's go." Ning Cheng took Xiao Zhongling's hand and walked over.
Xiao Zhongling lowered her head a little embarrassed, she looked at her classmates and her parents were still a little uneasy, but now
Holding Ning Cheng's palm, she felt warm and safe, this is the feeling of family.
Ning Cheng didn't care about this scene, after all, in his heart, Xiao Zhongling had long been his sister, so it was natural to hold his sister's hand.
"Mr. Ning?"
Lin Jing was chatting with a parent and classmate, and when she saw Ning Cheng coming over, she immediately said.
"Teacher Lin, long time no see." Ning Cheng said this with a smile.
Before he came, he found that the parents of this classmate seemed to have been pestering Lin Jing, and Ning Cheng was very disdainful of this kind of person, it was okay to pick up girls, but it was not right to pick up girls in front of his son!
"Teacher Lin, how is my sister doing in school?" Ning Cheng asked.
"Xiao Zhongling is very smart and has always studied well." Lin Jing said truthfully.
"yes, that's great." Ning Cheng smiled and touched Xiao Zhongling's forehead.
"This gentleman, if you don't have anything to do, can you give Teacher Lin to me first, and I will talk to her about some business." The parent of the student walked over and smiled.
This is a fat man, with a rich face, he looks like a smiling Buddha, and he always smiles at people, but Ning Cheng can feel that this person's smile is too fake.
Lin Jing's face changed, and she said, "Mr. Zhao, I still have a lot of things to do, and I won't talk about business today." ”
"Oh yes, I think you'll be interested."
"I'm sorry, brother." Ning Cheng suddenly smiled and said, "I'm looking for Teacher Lin to learn about some of my sister's studies, if you really don't have anything, can you please not get in the way here?" ”
"What did you say?" Mr. Zhao frowned and said, "Where are you from, why are you so unqualified." ”
"Dad, this is the little Zhong Ling I told you!" Another little fat man next to Mr. Zhao said.
This little fat man was supposed to be his son.
"Oh? Is this little friend? Mr. Zhao looked at Xiao Zhongling, his eyes lit up, he was indeed a beauty.
"Yes, yes, son, it's indeed a beauty, Dad has set it for you, chase it well, tell Dad if you lack money!"
"Zhao Li, this is the school, don't take bad children." Lin Jing finally frowned and said.
Xiao Zhongling's gaze was a little evasive, and it seemed that he should have been harassed by this Zhao Li's son in the school.
"Is he harassing you?" Ning Cheng said to Xiao Zhongling.
"No, he asked me to play with him, but I didn't like him." Xiao Zhongling said.
As she was talking, a few more children took the initiative to come over to greet Xiao Zhongling, and it seemed that she had a good relationship in this class.
"Hmph, it's not too much for my son to find a woman from elementary school, it's your blessing to be favored by my Zhao Li's son." Zhao Li said.
Ning Cheng frowned, he originally just took it as a joke, after all, he didn't want to find something, but he didn't expect this Zhao Li to be such an idiot!
