Section 273 Bodhi (II)

"Young Master, you are the protagonist of today. Pen~Fun~Pavilion www.biquge.info guests have all been seated, and the lord and wife are waiting for you to go over and start the table. "It was an eighteen or nineteen-year-old maidservant who looked mature and steady, and lively and lovely.

Although it was the first time we met, for some reason, I knew that I was her young master, and then an important thing came to my mind, today is my eighteenth birthday.

This is Baoding, Hebei Province, and my father is a well-known wealthy family in the city, and every year on my birthday, he invites a group of relatives and friends, celebrities and heroes, to set up hundreds of tables in the Bodhi Garden in his backyard.

Bodhi has no tree, and the mirror is not a platform. 's father was not born with a golden key, and he also experienced some social training in his youth, which turned from an ordinary craftsman to a red-top businessman on the rich side, and he was proud in shopping malls and officialdom. He must have had some emotion when he built this garden, but he did not think deeply about the vagaries of the facts.

He loved me as much as his mother, not only because I was the only son of the Li family, but also because I was the sole heir to his hard-won family business.

My father had high hopes for me, but I didn't seem to have much interest in this amazing family property, and I was so absorbed in the carpenter's craft that my father and grandfather had worked for a living. Whenever my father looked at the pile of carpenters in my room, he couldn't help but sigh, and his eyes were full of unproductive contempt. However, I really don't like the hypocrisy of the ushering in the mall, and I am immersed in the real wood.

I knew that I had to go out to deal with my father's old friends in the mall, and I reluctantly stared at the white lotuses in the middle of the pond, muttering sentimentally to myself from time to time, which made me, who was originally as soft as jade, look a little more sophisticated.

"Young Master?" When the maid saw that the young master was still staring at the pond and ignoring herself, and that the old lady was already waiting anxiously in the Bodhi Garden, she couldn't help but have the courage to whisper again in my ear.

I sighed and turned my head.

The bright eyes that were not stained with a little dust looked at the maidservant, and they were silent for a long time, but finally reluctantly followed her and left the pool of white lotus.

Bodhi Garden is large and has many guests.

Every guest looks as respectful when they see the boy as if they were seeing their own parents, no, even when they see their own parents, they will not be so respectful.

One by one, they stepped forward to congratulate, and their tones were full of sincere compliments.

I also returned the salute with a false smile on my face.

They were so flattering that I had to laugh a lot.

Actually, I couldn't laugh at all, because I knew that they were not complimenting themselves, but their father, the most powerful man in the city.

But I couldn't help but laugh, because I didn't want to disappoint my father, who was already frosted and snowy.

My parents were not disappointed, and when they saw me, it was like seeing the most cherished baby.

So my father took the trouble to introduce his beloved son to everyone according to the custom of the year, and although those present were so familiar that they could even tell me my birthday, they listened with the expression with the expression they had seen me for the first time, and occasionally let out a few whispers of envy.

After the introduction, a representative of the guests gave me a congratulatory message.

A civil official in the city congratulated: "The young master of the Li family is erudite and benevolent, and the world knows that he is the champion and the first, and he will become a great weapon when he enters the phase!" ”

His father was very happy to hear this, and toasted him again and again. I smiled bitterly in my heart, because I knew very well that I didn't want to say what I was doing in my homework, and even several teachers in the private school couldn't look down on it.

Another businessman congratulated: "Now that the south is in turmoil, the rivers are broken, and the officialdom is in turmoil, the young master of the Li family has this big ancestral business, what else does he need to do?" It is better to expand the family business with peace of mind, glorify the ancestors, and he will include the benefits of the world in the future, and become a generation of businessmen in the famous Zhenyu! ”

My father's eyes lit up when he heard this.

At this time, from a wine table in the farthest place, an old man with a ragged clothes and a scruffy beard came forward to congratulate: "The young master of the Li family has a full and round forehead, and he is a young man who is rich and noble, but unfortunately his left eyebrow is broken, his cheeks are thin and white, there is a little black mole on his right cheek, and his jaw is sharp and adducted. ”

When he was halfway through, the entire Bodhi Garden fell silent.

Everyone, including his parents, stared at him and didn't speak for a long time.

They all wonder if something is wrong with their ears.

The atmosphere was terrible and silent.

The father barely squeezed out a smile on his face and asked, "You...... What did you just say? ”

Lao Dao cleared his throat and repeated the original words again slowly.

This time, the entire Bodhi Garden people heard it, and they heard it clearly, word for word.

They quickly came to their senses and scolded the old man for being a madman.

What happened next can be imagined even by the nose.

Naturally, the old Taoist was blasted out of the Bodhi Garden.

My father has always been known for his kindness, and this is the first time he has made a public sensation.

However, this did not in any way detract from his glorious image among the townspeople. For even if you were a poor beggar and you cursed his son like this, he would mercilessly lift the stick in his hand and beat you severely.

Since the father was not wrong, the guests naturally did not scold him either.

The host of the family treats you as a distinguished guest, and treats you to eat and drink delicious food, but you curse his son, what is not madness? Not only is he a madman, but he's also a madman with a lot of mushy in his head.

If it weren't for the fact that he was a monk, I am afraid that he would have been sent to the government to deal with it strictly. With the Li family's power in Baoding City at that time, it would not be difficult to let Lao Dao die in prison without explanation.

However, I seemed to think of something, and suddenly an urge to ask for clarification surged in my heart, and I chased him out.

The old road didn't go very fast, so I only ran one street to see him.

It's a pity that seeing doesn't mean chasing it.

Baoding is not far from Cangzhou, martial arts are quite prosperous, all wealthy families will invite martial arts to teach children martial arts, one to strengthen the muscles and bones, and the other can also be used for self-defense in the future.

I have been worshipping in Cangzhou since I was a child, the famous dart master "Harrier Li" under the door, the teacher is a light skill to look at the top three in the sea, although I do not have his ability, but also practice a good foot strength.

The old man was not young, and he was a little staggering when he walked, but strangely enough, no matter how much I sprinted, I was always about ten paces away from his back. I was surprised in my heart, and then I knew that I had met a master.

"Old Daoist, wait for me!" I was afraid that he didn't see it, so I shouted behind him.

Unexpectedly, Lao Dao did not look back, and still walked forward without hurrying.

I pursued it until I reached a tree outside the city, only to see the old road stop. (To be continued.) )
