Chapter 16: Birthday Celebration

Before and after Jiang Ling left, it was only two hours in total.

"It's back. Jiang Ling walked over, "Little sister, don't cry, brother is fine." The wooden shopkeeper and those government soldiers were all beheaded by the city lord, don't worry. ”

Jiang Yuntao and Jiang Xiaoyi didn't understand what was going on at all.

"Ling'er, this ......" Jiang Yuntao couldn't believe it.

"Don't worry, I used to do things for the general of the state capital, General Zhou ordered, whoever blocked my order, directly cut down ......" Jiang Ling roughly explained what happened.

In this way, Jiang Yuntao and Jiang Xiaoyi were willing to believe that they were safe.

"Brother, in this way, your strength realm was all helped by General Zhou to improve you?" After a while, Jiang Xiaoyi asked.

"Well, General Zhou needs me to do something, and he is afraid that I will not have enough strength, so he gave me an extremely precious pill, plus he helped me open up the meridians, and I will be promoted to martial artist. Jiang Ling didn't want to reveal too much, so he made up such a lie.

"Haha, that's great! It's really a chance given to my son by God, the sky has eyes!"

Jiang Yuntao was so excited that he burst into tears, and the Jiang family also had a martial artist!

This incident made Jiang Yuntao feel that he had suddenly gone from hell to heaven.

......

The next day, noon.

"Brother, there will be a big exam the day after tomorrow, which school are you going to take the exam?" Jiang Xiaoyi asked during lunch at lunch.

"You are now a martial artist, but you can't be careless, you must go all out and strive to be admitted to the state martial arts. If you really get in, your mother will be proud of you under Jiuquan. ”

Jiang Yuntao was happy today and drank several large bowls of wine.

"I know, Dad. As for which school to take the exam, it has not been decided for the time being, and after the exam, at least it cannot be lower than the state-level martial arts. Jiang Ling didn't directly say his goal.

"Okay, brother, you must come on!" Jiang Xiaoyi sandwiched several pieces of meat and bones for Jiang Ling in a row.

"You also eat more meat, see how thin you are. Jiang Ling patted Jiang Xiaoyi's little head and sandwiched a few pieces of meat for her, and the family was happy.

"Uncle Jiang, are you eating?"

Two sixteen or seventeen-year-old boys appeared at the door with a smile on their faces.

"Hey, it's Wang Feng and Brother Wang Zhi, come in and sit. Jiang Xiaoyi was busy moving the stool.

"You two boys, why are you willing to come to Uncle Jiang's place today, come and drink. Jiang Yuntao greeted the brother surnamed Wang.

"We've eaten, so I won't drink with you, Uncle Jiang. Tomorrow is my father's birthday, and his old man sent us to invite you, this is an invitation, Brother Ling and my little sister are also coming. Wang Feng handed over an invitation.

"Uncle Wang's birthday, my father remembers, yesterday he was still going to buy gifts, the two brothers don't come to invite, we will also remember to go, hehe. Jiang Xiaoyi said.

"Of course I know this, Uncle Jiang and my father have been friends for decades and are like brothers. The little nephew came over today, and there was one more thing to say. Brother Wang Feng looked at each other and smiled.

"Oh, what's the matter?" Jiang Yuntao asked.

"My father said, tell you to come over tomorrow morning, remember to bring a red envelope of two hundred taels of silver. Wang Zhi said.

"This old guy is really shameless, how can anyone take the initiative to ask for red envelopes, hehe. Jiang Yuntao said with a smile.

"Uncle Wang, it's not my father who asks for red envelopes. Now, look, my father is ready for two hundred taels of silver, you can bring it tomorrow, you must come early. ”

The two of them put down a bag of silver and went out.

"Two boys, don't sit down a little longer?"

"No, Uncle Wang, we still have to invite other guests. The two left.

"Alas. Jiang Yuntao sighed deeply and said, "Your Uncle Wang really has nothing to say to our family, Ling Er, Xiao Yi, when you have a chance in the future, you must repay Uncle Wang, do you know?"

"Of course, Uncle Wang is like our own uncle, Xiao Yi will definitely honor his old man in the future. ”

Jiang Ling recalled.

This so-called Uncle Wang, named Wang Xun, is Jiang Ling's father's friend of life and death. The Wang family is well-off, and in Nanfeng City, they can be regarded as middle-level rich.

Wang Xun's family has never disliked Jiang Ling's father because of the Jiang family's downfall, and they always took the initiative to help if they had anything.

"Uncle Wang is righteous, I remember when I was a child, every year during the festival, he would bring me and my little sister delicious food, and also take us to the temple fair to play. In Jiang Ling's memory, this Wang Xun family is really good.

Jiang Yuntao nodded and said, "Tomorrow, our family will go to celebrate your Uncle Wang's birthday early, but this old boy, what do you mean by sending two hundred taels of silver?"

......

Early the next morning, Jiang Ling's family came to the north of the city, Wang's house.

"Uncle Jiang, Brother Tao, little sister, come in and sit!" It was Wang Feng who received Jiang Ling.

"Where's your father?" Jiang Yuntao asked.

"My father is waiting in the hall, and I'll lead you there. ”

When they arrived at the hall, Wang Xun and another middle-aged man in his fifties were drinking tea.

"Coming?" Wang Xun didn't show much enthusiasm, so he asked lightly. Jiang Yuntao was even more polite, sat down at the table by himself, and poured himself a cup of tea.

"Call me early in the morning?"

"No, Lao Tzu's birthday, shouldn't you come and have a cup of tea with me earlier? Wang Xun smiled and patted Jiang Yuntao's shoulder.

"Yes, your brother is celebrating his birthday, and he should call me to do chores. Jiang Yuntao also smiled.

"It's pretty much the same, try this tea, good stuff. Wang Xun motioned for Jiang Yuntao to drink tea.

"By the way, Brother Li, this is my best friend Jiang Yuntao. Wang Xun introduced to another middle-aged man, and Jiang Yuntao greeted each other.

"Brother Yuntao, I called you to come over early today, there is a good thing to tell you. I don't go around the bush, this Brother Li, there is a daughter in the family, and he is about to graduate from the academy, so I want to draw a string to let Ling'er and Brother Li's daughter get in touch. Wang Xun said.

Only then did Jiang Yuntao understand that Wang Xun was going to say goodbye to Jiang Ling.

In this world, sixteen years old is already an adult, and blind dates are also a common thing.

"Hahaha, I see. Jiang Yuntao smiled.

"Brother Li, Jiang Ling's family situation, I have already introduced. As for Ling Er's future career, I have also arranged it, and when he graduates from the academy in a few days, I will hand over the two shops on North Street to him and let him manage them completely, so in terms of living conditions in the future, I will definitely not lose Ling Qianjin. Wang Xun said.

Li Huaigu's eyes lit up, Wang Xun was in the two shops on North Street, but he was making money every day, if he really handed it over to the Jiang family, then there was really no need to think about money.

"Haha, Brother Wang, how can I, Li, be a snob, what are you doing with this stubble. I still say the same thing, I have to see his (her) two little babies by themselves, don't you say?" Li Huaigu said.

"That's right. Wang Xun nodded, "Since Brother Li has no opinion, I will arrange for Ling Er and Ling Qianjin to meet later, and as for the rest of the matter, everything will be as fate would have it." ”

"That's very good. Li Huaigu smiled and nodded, but Jiang Yuntao had a look of embarrassment.

"Brother Jiang, what's wrong with you?" Seeing that Jiang Yuntao didn't say anything, Wang Xun hurriedly gave him a look.

"Ahem, Brother Wang, this ...... Ling Er is still young, and he is interested in continuing his studies in martial arts, but he is afraid that he will ......"

If someone had said goodbye to Jiang Ling a few days ago, it would have been too late for Jiang Yuntao to be happy, but now Jiang Ling would definitely be able to be admitted to the martial arts academy, so it would be impossible to get married so early.
