Squeak.

The door to the living room slowly opened.

A solemn atmosphere came to him.

The first person to come out was the head of the Ji family, Mrs. Ji.

Old Mrs. Ji was supported by Ji Yanran and Ji Jinlin, one left and one right, with a steady gait, a solemn and solemn face, and slowly walked out of the living room.

A large group of people who were originally kneeling at the door of the living room looked up at Old Lady Ji in unison.

Including me and the fat man.

When they saw Mrs. Ji, everyone was shocked: today's Mrs. Ji is actually wearing a red robe, similar to the official robe of ancient women, but the style is larger than the official robe, and the color is brighter than the official robe.

In addition, Old Lady Ji was also carrying a red ribbon-like thing on her back, which was extremely eye-catching.

And Ji Yanran and Ji Jinlin, who were standing on the left and right sides of Mrs. Ji, were also in formal clothes, both of them had solemn faces and did not squint; Behind Ji Yanran and Ji Jinlin, there were several pairs of young people, both young and girly, with good looks, youthful and beautiful, eye-catching.

"Mr. Xiao, what kind of ceremony is this?"

I asked the fat man in a low voice.

The fat man shook his head and whispered back to me, "Master, to tell you the truth, this is also the first time I have seen this kind of battle, and I have never seen it before. ”

"Miss Ji didn't greet you beforehand?"

"No ......"

……

I didn't follow up.

Obviously, the fat man had no idea about all this.

Even including Ji Jinlin.

After all, from our point of view, although Ji Jinlin's face is solemn, he always has the feeling of catching ducks on the shelves.

"Master, should I ask Uncle Kuan what's going on?" Seeing that I turned my head, the fat man poked me with his elbow and asked in a low voice, "Uncle Kuan is a popular person next to grandma, and he will know about grandma's affairs nine times out of ten." ”

My eyes were firmly fixed on the old lady Ji and the others who were slowly walking outside, and I shook my head and whispered, "Don't use it yet, let's see." ”

The situation in front of me is very much like some kind of ritual.

However, since it is so exciting and solemn, this ceremony should be carried out soon, and there is no need to ask Uncle Kuan.

Old Lady Ji was supported by Ji Yanran and Ji Jinlin, slowly walked out of the door of the living room, and then stood majestically.

Then, a scene that surprised me appeared: everyone who was originally kneeling at the door of the living room, including the Guo family such as Old Man Guo, actually knelt on the ground and saluted Old Lady Ji, and shouted in unison: "I have seen the messenger." ”

At the door of the living room, kneeling in the black.

Including the Guo family and the Ji family.

Especially Mr. Guo.

The Guo family was kneeling on the ground, and we couldn't see their expressions, but the fat man and I were dumbfounded.

"W-what's going on?"

The fat man's eyes widened, and he stumbled when he spoke, "Everyone surnamed Guo has knelt down to grandma, this, what's going on?" ”

The fat man was puzzled.

I'm even more puzzled.

In the past, the Guo family had always been domineering and domineering in front of the Ji family, and they were doing a hook-up of open competition and secret robbery, which made the Ji family hate it.

And now, Old Man Guo led everyone of the Guo family to kneel respectfully in front of Old Lady Ji and salute, all of them prostrate on the ground, their attitude was pious and respectful, and they didn't even have the courage to look up at Old Lady Ji, looking extremely humble and meek.

What's going on today?

What kind of ceremony is this holding in Mrs. Ji?

Why is there such a big battle?

Also, what is the Guo family doing, why do they keep calling Mrs. Ji's messenger? What kind of messenger is she?

Moreover, the Guo family bowed to Mrs. Ji three times.

This is a salute from the younger generation to the elders.

Old Man Guo and Old Lady Ji are the same generation, how could he make such a big gift to her? Could it be that it is because of Mrs. Ji's identity as a "messenger"? Or does it have some other special meaning?

However, I don't think about it so much right now.

Because, after a group of people in the courtyard knelt down in the dark, only me and the fat man were left standing in the courtyard in a daze, which looked very abrupt. Especially the fat man, he looked at the crowd kneeling around in a daze, looking dazed and overwhelmed.

Kneel?

Or not kneeling?

The fat man and I didn't know what to do for a while.

It's okay to be fat, but I'm in a very awkward position.

According to the rules of our Li family, the feng shui master of our Li family kneels down to heaven and earth, yin and yang, and kneels down to respect his parents and elders, but he does not kneel to outsiders.

Because, according to the rules of the feng shui world, the feng shui master is a person who jumps out of the three realms and five elements, and his self-held identity is much higher than that of ordinary people, so there are generally such rules: one does not kneel to unknown ghosts and gods, and the other does not kneel to the clan with a foreign surname.

"Master?"

Just when I was stunned, the fat man looked around in a panic, gently tugged at my sleeve, and reminded me in a low voice, "Let's both kneel down, it's too abrupt to stand like this, it's easy to be seen by grandma, like standing out from ......the crowd."

I opened my mouth and was about to tell the fat man the rules of the feng shui world.

Then, make a decision.

"Boy, what are you still doing, why don't you kneel down quickly!" Before I could speak, a young man surnamed Guo next to me shouted contemptuously and angrily at me, "It's really fucking not long-sighted, I dare not kneel when I see the messenger, I really eat the bear's heart and leopard's gall!" ”

It's good that the young man didn't say anything.

As soon as he spoke, the people in the courtyard turned their heads to look at me and the fat man.

When everyone saw that the fat man and I were still on the spot and did not kneel, a look of anger and disdain immediately appeared on their faces.

Strangely, not many of us dared to accuse us, but they all glared at me.

I suddenly reacted: these people didn't blame me, but they didn't dare to speak out at all, for fear that Mrs. Ji would blame.

This is even spookier.

What is the identity of Mrs. Ji?

Why is it that not only the Ji family is afraid of her now, but the Guo family is also so jealous?

It's a far cry from anything I've seen before.

"Master, let's get down on our knees quickly, or grandma will be angry." Seeing that the old lady Ji also looked up at us coldly, the fat man was immediately frightened, his knees weakened, he knelt on the ground with a puff, and turned around and pulled my clothes, "Master, kneel down!" All looking at you! ”

At this moment, Mrs. Ji's eyes have been cast on me.

Her gaze was heavy and cold, like two sharp blades that wanted to cut me alive.

Ji Yanran and Ji Jinlin also saw me.

Both of them looked worried, but they didn't seem to dare to speak, so they could only stand behind Mrs. Ji, keep glancing at me, and motioned for me to kneel down quickly.

"Mr. Xiao." I took the opportunity to explain to the fat man the reason why I didn't kneel, "Feng Shui masters jump out of the Three Realms and Five Elements, and they don't kneel down to the vulgar courtesy. If I stand here and interfere with the ceremony, I will stand in a corner or leave as little as possible to disturb the ceremony. ”

My voice was not loud, but it was clear to every corner of the yard.

My meaning is clear: Feng Shui masters have their own rules, and they can't kneel down these vulgar rituals. If you think I'm in the way, I'll just leave.

"In that case, master, then you go back first......" Seeing this, the fat man hurriedly relieved me.

I nodded, and raised my foot to head towards the backyard.

Since the ceremony of the Ji family was delayed, I naturally couldn't stay to watch the ceremony, so I had to leave early.

"Wait!" Unexpectedly, as soon as I took two steps, a gloomy voice from behind me came from Old Lady Ji, "Disrupted the ceremony, you plan to leave like this?" ”

Alas.

After all, I still can't escape.

Old Mrs. Ji already looked at me unpleasantly, so naturally she would not let go of this opportunity.

"Old lady." I paused, turned my head to look at Mrs. Ji, and said sincerely, "Since I delayed the ceremony, then I just left." What, what's wrong? ”

Hum.

Old Lady Ji snorted coldly.

"Come on, tie that kid up for me!"

Instead of talking nonsense to me, she waved her hand and asked someone to tie me up.

This old lady is really getting more and more assertive.

As soon as Mrs. Ji's words fell, I saw several bodyguards of the Ji family rushing over from the corner and quickly walked towards me.

"Grandma, don't!"

The fat man stood up suddenly, and hurriedly shouted at the old lady Ji: "Master Li is not not kneeling, but because of his identity. Feng Shui masters have the rules of Feng Shui masters, we can't force Master Li to kneel......"

He stepped up again and stood up for me.

Although still in such a reckless and straightforward way.

"Humph!" Old Mrs. Ji snorted coldly again, and coldly ordered the bodyguards who surrounded me: "If the eldest young master likes to accompany him, then even the eldest young master will be tied up!" ”

"Yes!"

Several bodyguards agreed.

The fat man, who has always been timid, leaned forward with his neck, "If you want to tie me, tie me first, the master is a distinguished guest I invited, and you can't tie the master ......"

"Xiao Kaikai!"

Seeing this, Mrs. Ji's face sank and she was furious.

Knowing the status of the fat man in the Ji family, I was afraid that the old lady Ji would blame the fat man for this, so I hurriedly said to the old lady Ji: "Old lady, you said that you tied me up." The eldest young master has nothing to do with this matter, don't blame him and let others see the joke. ”

Others, naturally, refer to the Guo family.

Although the Guo family behaves strangely today, the basic relationship between the two families should not change.

Especially for people like Mrs. Ji who care about face, they will naturally wonder how people think of the Ji family and the people of the Ji family.

Including fat people.

"Since you know the righteousness so well, it will fulfill you!" Mrs. Ji pointed at me casually and instructed the bodyguards, "Tie him up!" ”

At first, I didn't take it seriously, thinking that Mrs. Ji was just trying to teach me a lesson in front of everyone, and wanted to help the fat man excuse himself, so a few bodyguards put my hands behind me and tied me with a rope.

Unexpectedly, after the bodyguards tied me up, they pulled me again and tied me to a log stake.

"Young and vigorous, just right to be a sacrifice to invite the lord of the world."

After I was tied, Mrs. Ji looked at me gloomily and spoke in a deep voice.
