Chapter 16 What you sow, what you reap

Xu Zilin, the daughter of the Xu family of the Oriental Foundation, after the real famous family, today is her eighteenth birthday.

The Xu family will hold a grand birthday banquet for her on this day every year. Every year, her birthday banquet has also indirectly become the best way for other wealthy families or merchants to trend to the Xu family, in order to participate in this feast, they do their best, and collect rare treasures or silk satin everywhere, just to win the smile of the Xu family's daughter.

For the qualifications to participate: Except for the few wealthy families with the same strength as the Xu family, they are directly designated by Xu Zhenxing, the master of Xu, and the other places are selected by Xu Zilin, the protagonist of the banquet.

Xu Zilin has a special preference for jewelry and silk since childhood. Every year on her birthday, she receives a variety of birthday gifts. Whether she likes it or not, the person who sends it is the most expensive. And she was born with a golden key, expensive and more expensive, good and better, she took it for granted and necessary. What she wants must be the best and the most expensive, she doesn't have to think about this, the Xu family has the ability to satisfy her. Xu Jianhao often said to her: As long as she likes it, everything is not a problem. So when she was 8 years old, she came up with the idea that she would be eligible to attend her birthday party by choosing a gift.

Xu Zilin's selection method was quickly agreed by the entire Xu family, and then slowly evolved into an unwritten rule for attending her birthday party.

Xu Zilin's words became a rule of the Xu family. It is widely spread in the industry, and everyone in Xinguo knows about it. The wishful thinking of those who want to cling to the Xu family is that as long as they please Miss Xu, they will please the Xu family.

Less than two hours before the banquet began, the banquet was held in the Xu family's old mansion.

The old house of the Xu family is located on the top of a hill not far from the sea. The heavily guarded tall iron gate is at the foot of the mountain, and it takes half an hour to drive around the foot of the mountain by the gate, and a strict and sound monitoring and security system has been established around the mountain, guarded by bodyguards in shifts 24 hours a day. The road winds and winds to the top of the mountain, which is 1,848 meters above sea level, and the whole villa area is magnificent, resplendent and resplendent, like a palace.

Usually, unless invited by Mrs. Xu, there is no chance to enter the old mansion of the Xu family.

The old mansion is inhabited by Mrs. Xu and his wife and Xu Zilin's grandchildren. Xu Zhenxing and his wife Liu Qianqian live in another villa in the same city. Xu Jianhao is now expanding the territory of the Xu family in country M, and he has been in country M for a long time, and he also has his own villa in the new country. But his favorite sister Xu Zilin was arranged by the old lady to live in the old mansion, and he has also become a frequent visitor to the old mansion in recent years.

Xu Jianhao was hurrying to the old mansion, running the red light all the way, just to arrive within ten minutes stipulated by Xu Zilin, in fact, even if he flew immediately, it was impossible to arrive at the old mansion in ten minutes, Xu Zilin knew, he also knew it, but as a sister, he couldn't refuse any request from his sister since he was a child.

Tonight's Xu family, from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain, the number of security guards is twice as large as usual, and more strict inspections will be carried out on vehicles and people entering and leaving.

The driver took the maximum speed limit of the car to deliver Xu Jianhao safely to the gate of the old house, and then after the person and the car passed the identification, he re-got into the car and drove to the top of the mountain. The main hall was busy, and the dinner began an hour later, and the venue was doing the final finishing touches.

"Hello young master!" The attendant who was preparing the banquet stopped the movements in his hand and bowed to Xu Jianhao in unison.

Xu Jianhao's face was expressionless, and he stepped on the red carpet and walked to the inner hall.

Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Xu sat in the center of the inner hall and drank tea.

"Grandpa, grandma!" Xu Jianhao bowed his head respectfully to them.

"Hmm!" Old Lady Xu remained silent and continued to drink tea. Mrs. Xu is seventy-eight years old, but her body is still strong and tough, especially in the past few years after retiring behind the scenes, she has less troubles about official affairs, lives in a simple house, and lives for a long time, with a ruddy complexion and radiant complexion, and she can't see her actual age at all.

"My good grandson is back, come, let Grandma take a good look. Old Madam Xu got up and walked up to Xu Jianhao, looking him up and down, left and right.

"I've lost a little weight, but I'm getting handsome again. Old Madam Xu said with a smile. The seventy-five-year-old woman, who still looks tender and white, and her maintenance is completely old, I have to say that rich people can really delay the passage of time.

After greeting the second elder, Xu Jianhao continued to walk towards the inner room.

Xu Jianhao walked to Xu Zilin's door, knocked twice, but no one answered, pushed the door in, and the pink princess's room was empty.

Xu Jianhao frowned, turned around and walked out the door. It just so happened that the door to the dressing room opposite opened, and a maid walked out. The maid saw Xu Jianhao and bowed hurriedly: "Young master, you are back, and the young lady is inside." As he spoke, he reopened the door of the dressing room for Xu Jianhao.

As soon as I entered the door, I heard Xu Zilin's sweet and coquettish voice: "Why hasn't my brother come yet, I haven't chosen jewelry until now, and I won't be able to spare him later." You, go to Grandpa's and see if your brother is there. Xu Zilin crossed her hands on her hips, her toes were high, and she commanded the maid.

"Young Master. Four or five maids bowed towards Xu Jianhao at the door.

Xu Zilin turned around when she heard this, and was about to speak, thinking about whether it was wrong, she immediately pulled down her face and continued to turn her back to Xu Jianhao: "Hmph!" Holding his hands on his chest, he was angry, and his mouth was pouting.

Xu Jianhao saw her pretending to be angry, and felt funny, but for the sake of face, he tried his best to restrain himself. He stretched out his hand and motioned for his men to retreat and wait for the door to close.

Xu Jianhao walked behind Xu Zilin with elegant steps, Xu Zilin was wearing a pale pink silk evening dress, the skirt was mopping the floor, one shoulder, and the beautiful back was exposed, exquisite.

Xu Jianhao looked at it and couldn't help but exclaim in his heart: It turns out that my princess has grown up.

"It's beautiful, really beautiful. Xu Jianhao said to Xu Zilin through the mirror.

Xu Zilin glanced at Xu Jianhao in the mirror: "Hmph!" pouted higher.

Xu Jianhao continued to look at her in the mirror and said, "It seems that no one wants my angelic heart, forget it, I'll throw it away." Xu Jianhao was holding a jewelry box in his hand, and what he said really worked.

Xu Zilin's eyes lit up after hearing this, and her curiosity exploded: "Angel's heart, what angel's heart, give it to me." "I snatched the jewelry box with one hand and couldn't wait to open it, a diamond necklace full of diamonds, and the pendant was a piece of high-quality emerald, shining in the light.

Xu Zilin couldn't put it down, and compared it to her neck: "Wow, it's so beautiful." Thank you brother. ”

As Xu Jianhao expected, "I'll help you put it on." ”

"Thank you, brother, I wanted you to pick it for me. You see, those are the seats I elected. I knew that my brother would help me prepare this year, so I didn't waste time to choose, you don't know, it took me ten days and half a month to choose. I'm exhausted. Xu Zilin pointed to the gift she received this year on the ground.

"You are self-inflicted, and you sow what you cause and what you reap. Xu Jianhao sat on the sofa with disdain on his face.
