Chapter 74: Ancestor Worship for the New Year

"Lingling, it's already dawn, we should all go back!" Xiao Tian hugged his thin waist and said softly.

"I'm waiting for a while, but no one comes out!" Yue Lingling snuggled into that warm embrace and said coquettishly.

At this moment, the shops on both sides of Xiangquan Road also began to welcome customers.

"Lingling, you really have to leave, and after a while, all the people will come out!" Xiao Tian looked at the street that was gradually leaking out of popularity, and said.

"Well, I know, then I'll go back first, and I'll look for you later!" Yue Lingling slowly moved away, pecked lightly on Xiao Tian's face like a chicken pecking rice, and trotted away quickly.

Looking at the panicked back, Xiao Tian touched his cheek, smiled at the corner of his mouth, and slowly walked back.

For the Bauhinia Continent, the New Year is the four traditional ancestor festivals, and everyone attaches great importance to it, and on the morning of this day, it is necessary to go to the ancestral ancestral hall to pay tribute to the ancestors in order to prosper the family.

In Xiao Mansion, everyone was dressed in costumes, which was rare to see, and everyone's faces were beaming.

"Second brother, get up quickly, the ancestor worship is about to begin. Xiao Meng ran into the backyard early in the morning and pulled up Xiao Tian, who was sleeping soundly on the bed.

Hearing the shouting, Xiao Tian got up from the bed and yawned lazily, he didn't sleep with Yue Lingling all night last night, and finally wanted to rest for a while, this ghost spirit ran out again.

Out of the hall, Xiao Tian and Xiao Meng came to the house and ancestral hall of Xiyuan.

The outer wall of the ancestral hall has been overgrown with dense creeper green plants, which can be seen that the ancestral hall has a long history.

At this time, the disciples of the Xiao family had already come to the outside of the ancestral hall, watching Xiao Feng and Xiao Yishan discuss in a whisper, nodding to each other, which was regarded as greeting, while Xiao Peng was not good-looking, stayed aside, and did not make a sound.

Xiao Xian, and then came, a group of Xiao family elders also followed, and Xiao Chen stood aside, with a solemn face, and did not make a sound.

"Squeak~!"

Xiao Chen pushed open the door of the ancestral hall, a cold wind blew, making everyone shiver, and everyone felt unprecedented solemnity as Xiao Xian walked into the ancestral hall.

Lighting the candles on both sides of the ancestral hall, Xiao Tian looked directly ahead, the tablets of thousands of ancestors, silent, solemnly watching, Xiao Meng was also made by this atmosphere and did not dare to breathe, the entire ancestral hall was terrifying, and only the sound of the candles burning could be heard.

"Eighty-first generation disciples, Xiao Xian visited the ancestors, hoping that the ancestors would bless my Xiao family to carry forward. A sonorous and powerful voice sounded in the ancestral ancestral hall.

The disciples of the family knelt on the ground with Xiao Xian and kowtowed three times.

After kowtowing, Xiao Tian was called to the study.

In the study, Xiao Xian sat in the main seat, Xiao Yidao stood on the right side, and Xiao Tian walked on the opposite side.

"Tian'er, after today, you will be sixteen years old, and after the year, you will go to the imperial capital Shangguan's house and implement your marriage!" Xiao Xian touched his beard and squinted his eyes, recalling the past.

Xiao Yidao occasionally wandered for a while, and sighed for a while, "The second brother is gone, but when he left, he also left you a marriage contract, Tian'er, let's go to the imperial capital together after the year." ”

"But!"

Xiao Tian looked at Xiao Yidao, his face was full of embarrassment, he only confessed to Yue Lingling yesterday, and he was going to the imperial capital today to implement the marriage contract, so how can he be worthy of Lingling, absolutely not, besides, isn't it just a joke back then? Why do you want me to carry it out!

Seeing Xiao Tian frowning, Xiao coughed with a knife, and made a color, "Ahem, Tian'er, at this time, your father, when he was alive, pointed out to you about the marriage, you kid don't know what to do, and brush your father's heart." ”

Seeing Xiao Yidao desperately blinking, Xiao Tian turned his head, and saw Xiao Xian's eyes with a trace of tears, I don't know whether to think of the past, or miss his late father, I also felt inexplicably uncomfortable in my heart, I thought about it for a long time, and said, "I'm just worried, that Shangguan family, after all, is a wealthy family in the imperial capital, whether it can take a fancy to me or not, it's still an unknown, let's rush in, not afraid of losing face." ”

Hearing this, Xiao Xian came back to his senses, touched his beard, and said, "Tian'er, you underestimate your current identity too much, you are now a disciple of the Seven Peaks Sword Sect, a mere imperial capital wealthy family, you really don't need to pay attention to it!"

In the Bauhinia Continent, martial arts cultivation is respected, not to mention the wealthy families in the imperial capital, even the royal family wants to enter this kind of first-class sect for further study.

In the country of wind, the largest immortal cultivation sect is Qingfeng Pavilion, and the Seven Peaks Sword Sect is second only to Qingfeng Pavilion, whether it is the royal family or the wealthy family, they all want to enter this kind of sect, in the eyes of this kind of cultivator, the so-called wealthy family is just ants.

After listening to Xiao Xian's words, Xiao Tian lowered his head and secretly thought about countermeasures, no matter what, he agreed first, and when the time came, he was thinking of an excuse to withdraw this marriage, without hurting the old man's heart, and he could be worthy of Lingling.

Seeing Xiao Tian's frowning, a smile appeared on the corner of Xiao Xian's mouth, and he said slowly, "Tian'er, you are worried about that little girl of the Yue family!"

Hearing Xiao Xian's words, Xiao Tian was full of wit, trembled, raised his head and secretly glanced at it a few times, quickly shook his hand, and explained, "No, Lingling and I are just ordinary friends! Absolutely, there is no such relationship." ”

"Yo, I'm sorry! Big man, if you like it, if you don't like it, you don't like it, twist and pinch, like a girl!" Xiao Yidao said disdainfully.

Looking at Xiao Yidao looking at himself with a smile, Xiao Tian glanced at it, and then didn't speak.

"Big husband, why not have three wives and four concubines? The little girl of the Yue family can barely be worthy of you! You look at it first, if it is suitable, both of them will marry in!" Xiao Xian touched his beard, grinned, and smiled.

Hearing Xiao Xian's conversation, Xiao Tian panicked in his heart, "What, two people are married? How can two people marry wives?"

For the Bauhinia Continent, similar to ancient China, the real number of three wives and four concubines is ordinary, but in Xiao Tian's heart, it is extremely awkward.

Saying goodbye to Xiao Xian, Xiao Tian wandered around the streets alone, today is the New Year, everyone in the town gathered together, and his face was full of happiness.

In the town, every household is pasted with the word Fu, the Spring Festival couplets are pasted on both sides of the gate, and the portraits of various monsters are pasted on the gate, such as Pixiu, gluttony, hydra, golden pterodactyl, etc.

Red lanterns hang on the eaves of the tiled roofs, and children are lit in front of the door.

All the shops on the ten-mile long street are hung with red knots, Xiao Tian strolled on the street, watching people coming and going, and involuntarily strolled to Xiangquan Road.

On the east street of Xiangquan Road, there is a huge mansion that exudes the breath of a king, Yuefu. It is located on the Excuse, very atmospheric, and the surrounding buildings, just forming a starry moon-like pattern.

Looking at the huge Zhumen, Xiao Tian looked around, but he didn't see that familiar figure, sighed, and turned to leave. Just after Xiao Tian turned to leave, a pretty figure slowly walked out from the gate, looked in the direction of Xiao Mansion, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, turned around, and walked towards the Burrow Park.

Sometimes, fate is so wonderful that it is better to deliberately pursue it than to meet by chance.
