Chapter 187: Family Dinner
"Back to the young master, nothing major has happened in the mansion in the past year. It's just that some time ago, the Harilo Kingdom invaded, and the head of the family took the eldest lord and young master Barron to the battlefield, and he just returned to the royal capital not long ago. ”
"Moreover, Young Master Barron successfully broke through to a sixth-level warrior on the battlefield, and made many military exploits, and after returning to the royal capital, he has been canonized as the Viscount of the Kingdom by His Majesty the King. ”
Keppel Road.
The head of the family and the eldest lord in his mouth naturally refer to Alan's grandfather Alman Senlan, and Allen's uncle Kevin Senlan.
And Young Master Barron is the only son of Allen's uncle, Kevin Senlan, and the first heir of Allen's generation of Senlan family.
At the mention of Barron, Allen couldn't help but think of the proud young man who had never looked at him squarely. However, his former self did not have the capital to let Barron face it.
Barron was among the most capable of the younger generation in the entire royal capital, as evidenced by his canonization as a viscount by the kingdom.
In the younger generation, there are many barons, but no more than ten have been canonized as viscounts!
And most of these ten people are in their thirties, saying that they are the younger generation, but they are actually much older than Allen.
Alan nodded, asked some more questions about the family, and left his courtyard alone.
Now that he has returned home, Alan naturally wants to visit his parents first, although Alan does not have much affection for them.
The courtyard where Allen's parents lived was not far from the courtyard where Allen lived, and a few minutes later, Allen had already arrived at the door of the courtyard, and there were four guards standing at the door.
"Second Young Master!"
Seeing Allen, the guards at the door hurriedly saluted.
"Can my parents be in the hospital?" Alan asked.
"The lord went out early in the morning, and the lady has been in the courtyard today. The guard replied.
Alan nodded, and walked straight into the courtyard. He came to visit his mother, so naturally he didn't need to ask the guards to report him.
When Alan entered the courtyard, Alan's mother was walking around the courtyard accompanied by several maids.
"Madam, look, it's the second young master. ”
A sharp-eyed maid saw Allen. Surprised to say to Ailu's mother.
They knew that Madame had missed the Second Young Master for a long time, and even planned to visit the Second Young Master in the Nice City area at the beginning of this year. If it weren't for the sudden invasion of the Harilo Kingdom, Madame might have really gone.
Alan's mother heard the maid's words. Hurriedly looked in the direction pointed by the maid, and sure enough, he saw Alan walking towards him.
"Alan, you're back!" said Allen's mother in surprise.
What mother doesn't love her son? Alan was sent to the Nice City area to become a lord, and Allen's mother can be said to be heartbroken, and she even had a fight with Allen's father for this.
Alan walked forward quickly and saluted, "Mother." ”
"Alan. When you came home, you won't send anyone to inform me. Allen's mother stroked Allen's head, her eyes full of kindness.
"Just returned," replied Allen, "and after settling down in the courtyard, I'll come to see my mother at once." ”
Allen's attitude towards his mother is a little rusty, which makes Allen's mother feel distressed.
Since the incident, this child has become alienated from everyone, including his mother.
Alan's mother took Eren to sit down in a gazebo in the courtyard. Ask him about the year.
Alan stayed with his mother for a whole afternoon, and it wasn't until night fell that Allen's mother smiled: "Before I knew it, it was already night." ”
"It's the day of the family dinner, so come with me. When your father and brother return home, they should go straight to the house. ”
After Allen's mother finished speaking, she looked at Allen with expectant eyes, hoping that Allen would agree. In the past, Alan would not attend family dinners for some reason.
Listen to what my mother said. Alan only then thought that the family would hold a dinner party at the end of every month, and today was the day of the family dinner.
In the past, when I was in the royal capital, I would not participate in the family dinner. The reason is that I am really not used to the atmosphere there.
At dinner, the younger generation gathered around Barron or around his brother Darren, but few of them paid attention to him. In addition, at that time, Alan had just crossed over and was in a closed stage at heart, so he naturally wouldn't like this kind of activity.
But now. Alan no longer had any resistance to this kind of dinner, because he no longer cared what the rest of the family thought of him.
Alan nodded, "Okay, Mother." ”
Allen's mother was extremely happy to hear that Alan agreed to go with her, because she could feel that Allen had indeed changed a lot when he came back this time.
Alan's mother went to the room to clean up and took Eren with her to the place where the dinner was gathered.
The Senlan family's dinner was held in the courtyard where the head of the family, Yarman, lived, and it was the only time a month for many people in the family to come into contact with Yarman.
When Alan and his mother arrived in Yarman's courtyard, most of the people in the family had already arrived, and they were talking in groups.
There are several old men sitting at the top, all of whom are peers of Alan's grandfather Yarman, and the old man sitting in the middle is none other than Yarman.
Everyone who entered the courtyard had to pay a visit to Yarman before he could return to his place.
Alan followed his mother to Yarman, and after his mother saluted, he respectfully bowed to his grandfather Yarman: "Grandson Alan, meet grandfather." ”
Privately, Alan could call Grandpa Yarman, but on this occasion, he had to call Grandpa.
Yarman's face was originally extremely serious, but after seeing Allen, a rare smile appeared on his face.
"Alan, you're back. ”
"Hmm. Alan nodded.
"Stay after dinner, I have something to say to you. Yarman said.
Alan nodded, "Okay, grandfather." ”
For family dinners, everyone's seats are arranged in advance, and if no one comes, the seats will be empty and no one will occupy them.
But the younger generation has a different seat.
The seats of the younger generation are numbered from one to thirty-six.
The Senlan family, there are a total of twenty-seven descendants of Allen's generation, and six of them are married and will not continue to sit here, so there are a total of twenty-one people sitting here.
The reason why the seats of the younger generation are different is that there is an interesting rule that whoever is strong can sit on them. If you feel like you're the strongest of the younger generation, you can sit in the number one position.
At every dinner, young people compete for seats is one of the most attractive things, and the number of seats basically represents the ranking of the strength of the younger generation.
In the past, Alan had always sat at the bottom, which was the number twenty-one, which was one of the reasons why Alan didn't want to attend the family dinner before.
You must know that according to the ranking of family succession, Allen is ranked fourth. The first three in him were his eldest uncle's son, Barron Senlan, his second uncle's son, and his own brother, Darren Senlan.
In the Yarman branch, there are only four Alan in the younger generation, and the other descendants are all Yarman's brothers and cousins.
Speaking of Allen's second uncle and the son of the second uncle's family, in Allen's impression, he has never seen them, nor has he heard the family mention them, only knowing that there are such two people in the family.
Alan attended a dinner party, when Allen's brother Darren sat in the number one position, Barron sat in the second position, and sat in the third position by a young master from another team, a fifth-level peak warrior.
When Alan came to the area where the younger generation was, the positions from No. 1 to No. 5 were still empty, and Alan sat directly in the No. 3 position under the surprised eyes of others.
Alan didn't want to compete for the No. 1 and No. 2 positions, since he was ranked fourth in the inheritance order, and the son of the second uncle's family in front of him was not there, then he would sit in the No. 3 position. (To be continued.) )
