Jian Youming, who is genuinely powerless, hit her own hands shaking this time, which shows that she is really practical.

Although for those who practice martial arts, this bit of force is like scratching the itch through the boots, the real humiliation is indescribable.

Dahan was hidden in the shadows, and a touch of ruthlessness flashed.

Ding Ai was already keenly aware of the killing intent at that moment just now, but Jian Youming obviously didn't care, raised his chin slightly and said coldly: "The dog can't spit out ivory things in his mouth, I think you must be making trouble for my third brother again." My grandfather just beat you less. ”

Ding Ai couldn't hold back, and laughed out loud.

The big man obviously heard the almost imperceptible laughter as well, and the green tendons on his forehead burst out, and he looked at Ding Ai with eyes like a vicious dog that was about to tear her apart in the next second.

Ding Ai shrugged disapprovingly.

Jian Youming had a cute smile on his face: "Why don't you get out of here?" ”

The big man finally glanced at Ding Ai viciously, lowered his voice and said respectfully: "...... This, this is ......", and with that, he led the group behind him into the courtyard.

"What are you laughing at?" The girl was not idle, and in the next second, her attention had shifted to Ding Ai's hand being held by Jian Tianqi.

Ding Ai stretched out his other hand and pointed at himself: "You said me?" ”

"Nonsense."

"......" Although Ding Ai is a character who is afraid of trouble, he really hasn't been intimidated by those who deliberately make trouble with her.

The problem is that the person in front of her has a special identity, she was silent for a few seconds, sighed slightly in her heart, and asked instead of answering: "Little girl, do you know who he is?" She said, gesturing her chin at the man standing beside her.

The girl's good-looking brow furrowed, as if she was pondering the meaning of her unexplained words.

Ding Ai deliberately rubbed for a while, then coughed lightly and said seriously: "Little girl, this is your third brother, I am your third sister-in-law." ”

"Be good, call the third sister-in-law, and the third sister-in-law will forgive you for the rudeness just now."

"What did you say?" The girl's tone raised in disbelief.

"I said," Ding Ai's face turned pale: "Your third brother is my person now, you have to make me comfortable." Otherwise, I will go back and put the account of your offence against me on your third brother's head, and I will abuse him and not give him food. ”

"You, you-" Jian Youming, who was held in the palm of the Jane family since he was a child, was afraid of falling, and Jian Youming, who was afraid of melting in his mouth, obviously had never faced an old rascal like Ding Ai, and was so angry that he couldn't even breathe for a while.

Ding Ai pretended to be generous and waved his hand at the right time: "Forget it, as an elder, I don't care about you, next time I have to call out the third sister-in-law, you know?" Then she took advantage of the situation and pulled Jian Tianqi and smiled at him: "Let's go, third brother." ”

The old rascal said that he really wanted to go, and he didn't forget to pat Jian Youming's head when he couldn't go.

"Y-you're going to stop me—"

Ding Ai didn't look back, just stretched out his hand and waved it slightly into the air.

"Chenshi."

Jian Tianqi shouted a name in a low voice, and the young man who followed immediately understood it, turned around and walked towards Jian Youming.

Where has Jian Youming been wronged like this since she was a child, seeing that her third brother really followed that vulgar female hooligan like this, she suddenly sobbed twice, and then cried out with a "wow-".

Jian Youming cried hard, Ding Ai didn't stop until he finally walked away, reached out and grabbed his hair a little irritably, and said, "Although I made your sister cry, you also walked away from my brother angrily, and we are both clear." Third Brother Jian, you can't hold a grudge against me in the future. ”

But she heard a barely audible laugh behind her.

As soon as she turned her head, she saw that the man was looking at her against the light, and there was a real smile in his dark eyes, and even the cold lines on his face became a little gentle.

Ding Ai's heart skipped a beat.

She coughed lightly: "What are you laughing at." ”

"Youming has not been cured since he was a child, I am a little surprised."

Ding Ai saw that he seemed to be unimpressed by her bad behavior just now, and immediately relaxed, and also hooked his lips with a wry smile: "My younger siblings were brought up by me since childhood, and their tempers and personalities are like opening the light, and I don't know what kind of demon and monster reincarnation is, they are completely two enemies." ”

Jian Tianqi groaned slightly: "You mentioned it once, but I remember you said that you are not close to them." ”

"When I was a child, I was still very clingy, but when I grew up, I ...... Alas, little ones grow up very quickly. ”

"They're your stepfather's children?"

Ding Ai nodded halfway through when he suddenly paused almost imperceptibly.

She half-jokingly said, "You ask me what I'm doing at home." Now think about how you're going to appease your precious sister for a while. I see that she likes you very much, and you just followed me like this bad woman, and I see that your knightly character in her mind is about to collapse. ”

Jian Tianqi just replied lightly: "No." And he said no more.

The atmosphere between the two was quiet for a while.

Fortunately, soon, the young man in a straight suit walked back from behind the two, nodded at Jian Tianqi and said, "Miss Youming has been appeased." "That look of wanting to say and stopping is obviously still there's something to say.

Ding Ai's face was silent, knowing that it was inconvenient for her to say the next words.

Who knows, Jian Tianqi said in a low voice: "You say." ”

Ding Ai subconsciously raised his eyes to look at her, but saw that Jian Tianqi was just staring at Chenshi, as if he did not see through her inner activities, but instead glanced at Ding Ai with a little surprise after hearing the words of Chen Shi, who lowered his eyes.

"I was going to send Miss Youming back, but as soon as I entered the door, I met Mr. Yu."

Jian Tianqi chuckled: "No wonder you came back so soon." Then bother him to send Youming to my grandfather. ”

"Yes." Chen Shi responded, "It will take two days to worship the ancestors, there will always be a chance, and I-"

Chen Shi wanted to say something, but three young men wearing white shirts and green belts around their waists walked over with brisk steps.

Although he has been a shopkeeper for many years, the identities of these teenagers are still recognized by Ding Ai at a glance.

The big families, especially the "He Leng Gu Zhao", even if they have entered the modern society, still have a tradition of accepting disciples. Taking the Jian family as an example, the disciples of the sect family all wore white clothes, and there was a dark hidden dragon pattern on the red belt around their waists, which was distinguished from the foreign children who wore white clothes and white belts.

Confucius explained the Zhou Yi hexagram: "The hidden dragon, the dragon is virtuous and the hermit is also", and the hidden dragon pattern represents the "virtue of the gentleman".

In Ding Ai's opinion, this argument did not soak the immoral Jane beauty in her family to half a point.

And the three people in front of him who were wearing white clothes and green belts were the disciples of the Jian family.

The three teenagers should have just finished practicing morning exercises, their faces were flushed, and there were still beads of sweat hanging on their foreheads. The three of them talked and laughed, and it wasn't until they got closer that they saw Ding Ai and the three of them, their expressions immediately changed greatly, and they immediately stood up straight, restrained the smile on their faces, and made a "cut" at Jian Tianqi decently.

"Hello, Third Young Master."

Ding Ai was a little amused when she saw that they were all soldiers, until Jian Tianqi nodded slightly at the three teenagers, and the three of them walked away quickly as if they had been amnestied, and she couldn't help but speak: "Those children seem to be very afraid of you." ”

Jian Tianqi didn't answer, but glanced at Chen Shi behind him: "There are many people, it's good if you know it in your heart." ”

"Yes."

Although it is said to be the Qingming Dynasty to worship the ancestors, since ancient times, the ancestors of a family like the Jian family have worshiped not only the ancestors and the prosperity of the family, but also to worship heaven and earth, and pray for good weather and peace in the country. Although the people in the martial arts are not above the temple, they seem to be the arrogance brought about by the noble status of the families on the rivers and lakes since ancient times.

Since it is a sacrifice, there is naturally a ritual.

The ceremony took place at the open-air altar at the back of Jane's Manor, half the size of a football field, with a slightly higher platform in the center made of white marble, without any ornamentation or carving, and looked more like a deserted fountain.

The ceremony was presided over by Jian Xingwen, the current head of the Jian family, and after all the members of the Jian family sat down one after another, only to hear the sound of regular footsteps, Ding Ai Yuguang saw more than 100 white-clothed young men hugging up, surrounding the altar, and then kneeling down with a "poof" in unison.

The ancestor worship of the Jian family pays attention to the word "quiet".

Ding Ai only felt that there was a strange depression in this silence.

She didn't know which immortal she had offended today, and all she met were some wrongdoers. Jian Tianqi had disappeared since before the sacrifice began, and now the one sitting next to her was who was not good, but it was the big man who had just bumped into her at the door.

When the man saw that it was her, a hint of surprise flashed on his face, and then the surprise turned into a vicious and playful smile, "By the way, you haven't seen it yet." ”

He smiled, "You should see this show with your own eyes."

To Ding Ai's surprise, he didn't do anything out of the ordinary, just sat down beside her, and didn't even intend to talk to her again.

Ding Ai felt a little strange feeling in his heart.

At this moment, I saw a familiar figure with a long back walking up to the altar.

The man was tall and tall, dressed in white, and the dark dragon pattern was faintly visible on the red belt around his waist.

Just by looking at the back, she recognized it as Third Brother Jian!

Ding Ai's bad premonition almost reached its peak for a while, but before she could react, Jian Tianqi on the altar had already stood still, only to see Jian Xingwen pull out a soft whip two fingers thick from his waist, and then only heard two muffled sounds of "pop"-

The two whips had all landed on Jian Tianqi's back.
