Chapter 568: Little Brother, You Haven't Started a Family, Are You?
"I haven't been to the Imperial City a few times, and you haven't seen it. Chu Bei nodded at the fat man with a smile on his face.
"Brother, is your family gone?" the fat man asked tentatively, while not forgetting to point to the stone pillar carved with a golden dragon behind Chu Bei, as if to remind him to sit at the end of the seat.
Hearing this, Xiao Feng glanced at the fat man with a smile, pointed to the little girl behind him, and changed the topic: "That's your daughter, who has a good cultivation talent!"
"Little girl Guan Hui. ”
The fat man smiled, and pulled the girl behind him to him: "Hui'er, say hello to uncle." ”
Xiao Guan Hui blinked, and shouted obediently towards Chu Bei: "Hello uncle!"
Chu Bei patted Xiao Guan Hui's brain, looked at the fat man and said suspiciously: "The little guy is so talented, which sect is he practicing in now?"
The fat man shook his head, and a sad expression flashed on his face: "Dissatisfied little brother, our Guan family still had a bit of status in this imperial city in the past. Every year, anyone who comes to this Heavenly Star Hall to participate in the banquet, although he can't sit in the front position, but at least he belongs to the middle reach. But this year, the family is in the middle of the road!"
As soon as the fat man's words were finished, the graceful woman behind him spoke: "If Grandpa Hui'er had been wise and chose the eldest prince, our family would not have fallen to the current situation." As for Hui'er, we have already sent her to the Seven Peerless Sects. ”
"What does it have to do with whether these seven peerless sects accept Hui'er or not and whether your family is in decline?" Chu Bei was puzzled.
"The people of the Seven Peerless Sects let our family side with the eldest prince, and Hui'er and his grandfather insist on neutrality...."
"Ahem!"
As soon as the Yongrao woman was halfway through her words, she heard the fat man's light cough, and seemed to realize that she had missed her mouth.
Chu Bei smiled, even if the other party didn't finish speaking, he guessed what was next.
As one of the four major sects, the Guan family did not listen to their opinions, and in order to save face, they naturally refused to include Xiao Hui'er in their disciples.
"Two, I wonder if you have ever thought about sending Xiao Hui'er to Ruoshui Sect or Lingyun Sect?"
Chu Bei's gaze fell on the fat couple again, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.
"These two sects are also the four major sects, if it doesn't matter, how can it be so easy to enter!"
The fat man shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Besides, these two sects have not accepted these little dolls in recent years. ”
Chu Bei smiled faintly and said, "The matter of Hui'er entering the four major sects will be handed over to me!"
"Little brother, don't be kidding! If you had that ability, you would still sit at the bottom of the seat. The fat man laughed, and although the laughter was loud, there was no disdain in the slightest.
Chu Bei scratched his head in embarrassment, and could only choose to remain silent.
The graceful woman behind the fat man seemed to notice the strangeness of the atmosphere, and hurriedly changed the topic: "Little brother, what are you doing?"
Chu Bei replied casually: "It's just a small businessman." ”
Just as the graceful woman was about to continue to ask, the sound of footsteps sounded, and then a shadow walked in.
After an instant, everyone's eyes on the field brushed the past.
"Your Highness Frost and Snow!"
Seeing the person who came, there was a burst of exclamations in the hall.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this year's birthday banquet is the same as in previous years. Before the father came out, everyone could still eat, drink and have fun to their heart's content, and there would be singing and dancing performances for a while. ”
Today, Long Shuangxue wore a pale gold embroidered phoenix dress, and the black and shiny green silk tied her hair in a delicate bun. A few slightly curved strands of hair hung from his ears and fell beside his beautiful and noble cheeks.
"Little brother, His Highness Frost and Snow has spoken, we can eat. ”
The fat man laughed, and then reached out and grabbed the delicious dishes on the table in front of him.
"Slow down, this isn't home!"
The graceful woman glared at the fat man, and then her slender fingers gracefully picked up the silver hilt and slowly cut through the fruit in the fruit bowl.
A smile appeared at the corner of Chu Bei's mouth, the temperament of the fat man in front of him was very suitable for his appetite, at least not pretentious.
"Tongtong, if you're hungry, don't be restrained. ”
Chu Bei picked up the antique cup on the table and tasted the green tea of the imperial formula.
A moment later, a dozen men and women dressed in strange costumes walked in outside the temple gate.
Then they danced one by one, and as the rhythm of the cheerful dance music changed, so did their swinging pace.
"Little brother, how do you see the dancing of these maids? Seeing that you are so young and have not yet started a family, do you want me to pick one for you?"
The fat man pointed to the maids dancing in the field, and looked at Chu Bei with a smile on the corner of his mouth.
Sensing the gaze of Mo Qingwu beside him, Chu Bei coughed lightly: "Big brother, are your eyes bad?"
"Don't mind my brother and sister, I'm just joking with my brother. ”
The fat man understood, looked at Mo Qingwu and immediately snorted haha.
Before Mo Qingwu could say anything, a strong footsteps came from outside the hall.
Then, a burly middle-aged man in a military uniform walked into the hall.
"This man's name is Hong Jiu. He is the general of our Heavenly Star Country, and he is also the confidant of the Dragon Emperor. ”
The fat man's eyes were firmly locked on Hong Jiu's body, and he burst into a shiny light, and at the same time spoke to Chu Bei beside him.
Hong Jiu, who was dressed in military uniform, walked on the red carpet, and people in the hall greeted him from time to time, looking very respectful.
"Brother Shangguan, long time no see!"
Hong Jiu walked straight to Shangguan Xiang, and then sat down on a soft chair beside him.
"Brother Hong, why don't you say hello to Boss Chu?" Shangguan Xiang smiled.
"Boss Chu, he's here too, where are the others!"
Hearing this, Hong Jiu was stunned, then his eyes moved, and he quickly fixed on Chu Bei's body.
The next moment, Hong Jiu got up and walked hurriedly towards the direction where Chu Bei was.
"Look, General Hong is walking towards Boss Chu!"
"Hong Jiu is a soldier, so he won't care about these etiquette, and in his opinion, he won't lose face when dealing with the last person. ”
"What puzzles me is, how does this Boss Chu know so many big people? Even General Hong personally got up to greet him. ”
......
Hong Jiu didn't pay attention to the discussion behind him, and the speed of his feet continued to increase.
When the fat man and the graceful woman saw Hong Jiu walking towards them, they hurriedly stood up with a flattering smile on their faces.
In their minds, this General Hong must have learned of their family's downfall and came to comfort them.
"General Hong..."
As soon as the fat man and the graceful woman spoke, they were stunned, and the two looked at each other, and their throats squirmed.
What's going on?
General Hong didn't come to them, but to find the young man beside them.
"Boss Chu, I didn't expect you to come too, it was my negligence. If it weren't for Brother Shangguan's reminder, I really wouldn't have noticed your existence. Hong Jiu hugged his fist towards Chu Bei, with a warm smile on his face.
