Chapter 59: Son-in-law, I've Been Waiting for You for a Long Time!
Xiao Zhan is now in full swing in Qingzhou City.
The fall of the Axe Gang is not unrelated to Xiao Zhan, everyone knows this, and the Fang family also knows it.
Moreover, Xiao Zhan is now the Inspector of the City Lord's Mansion, with a noble status and a third-grade official!
When did the Fang family ever appear as a seven-grade sesame official?
Xiao Zhan, that is a top official on an equal footing with the city lord!
"Alas, madam, you used to be a little too much for Xiao Zhan, you see now, the guests are here, but Xiao Zhan hasn't come yet.
I'm afraid he won't come, and our daughter won't either.
The old man will be very sad, he likes Xiaoxue the most. β
At this moment, Mrs. Wang regretted it in her heart, but her face was still arrogant, and she glared at her husband fiercely:
"Humph! It's not because of you, you must climb the big tree of the Xiao family!
How do you know that the Xiao family is a bastard! Send a waste Xiao Zhan to come and trick us.
It's really been eight lifetimes of blood mold, not only did he lose a priceless six-winged stegosaurus, but he didn't even receive a penny of the bride price.
Isn't all this your idea?
Isn't it a great thing that waste has become a treasure by now? It's not my fault! β
Fang Shouzong smiled bitterly, he knew that he couldn't talk to his wife.
Anyway, she is always reasonable, and she can't say anything about this unruly lady.
Then the butler came out and said:
"The head of the house, the guests are almost here, and they are all waiting for the feast!
You see......"
Fang Shouzong shook his head and said:
"No hurry, no hurry, wait a little longer, wait a little longer......"
Mrs. Wang lost her temper at this time:
"Humph! What are you waiting for? Xiao Zhan won't come, people are now big officials, and they can still afford us small families?
Let's go, I'll go in first, you have to wait for yourself! β
After saying that, Mrs. Wang walked into the courtyard.
Fang Shouzong stood at the door, very anxious:
"Oh, daughter, Xiao Zhan! If you don't come, you have to say something, so that I have a bottom in my heart!
There are a lot of big people coming here today, and if you don't come, it's too faceless, right? β
At this moment, at the end of the alley at the door, a carriage came slowly.
Next to the carriage stood two maids, Jin Suo and Qingwen.
Golden lock, of course Fang Shouzong knew, it was Fang Ningxue's personal maid.
Fang Shouzong was overjoyed, and shouted loudly:
"My daughter is here! It's my daughter here, it's great! β
He took three steps and two steps to meet him.
The carriage stopped, the curtain door opened, and Fang Ningxue appeared in front of Fang Shouzong.
"Xiaoxue, you're finally here!
That's great! Hurry, now the guests can't wait, wait until you come over to start the tableβone
Why didn't Xiao Zhan come? β
Fang Ningxue smiled silently.
Immediately after that, the curtain of the carriage was lifted again, and Xiao Zhan appeared in front of him in a cloth suit.
"Ah, virtuous son-in-law, here you are!
That's great! That's great!
Heck, I'm just afraid that you're delayed, so I've been staying here.
You see they're all in, and I'm waiting for you at the door alone! β
Xiao Strategic expressed apologies and clenched his fists and said:
"Father-in-law, I was preparing a birthday gift for my grandfather with Ning Xue just now, and there was something wrong, so I delayed it a little and made you wait for a long time.
Well, sorry, sorry. β
"Oops, it's okay, it's okay!
Son-in-law, I was completely relieved as soon as you came.
You don't know that in the guests, you are the most important thing!
If you don't come, we won't be able to hold this birthday party. β
"Oh, am I that important?
Hahaha......"
Xiao Zhan laughed, held hands with Fang Ningxue, and walked into the Fang family's compound side by side.
Fang Shouzong's heart was put down.
But he was still looking east and west, looking at the end of the alley, would anyone else come?
"It stands to reason that Liu Jie should have received an invitation and knew that today was the birthday of the Fang family's grandfather, and it was a bit unreasonable for him not to come......
Don't come! β
Thinking of the festival between Xiao Zhan and Liu Hao, I was afraid that Liu Jie would come back this time. Not a good thing.
"Liu Jie, even if you want to come back, don't come back at this time!
Otherwise, if there is any contradiction at the father's banquet, it will not end well! β
Fang Shouzong shook his head and walked through the door.
saw Xiao Zhan and Fang Ningxue, as well as the two maids Jin Suo and Qingwen appearing in sight. The butler, who was standing at the door of the lobby, was full of joy and shouted happily:
"Auntie Xiao Zhan, Lord Xiao, drive to-"
The lobby of the Fang family is relatively spacious, and it is not a problem to purchase twenty or thirty tables of banquets.
More than 100 guests are all well-known figures in Qingzhou City.
Hearing the butler's shout, they immediately stopped talking and laughing, their expressions became serious, and they all tidied up.
Xiao Zhan and Fang Ningxue appeared at the door of the lobby, and two maids came with gift boxes in their hands.
All the guests immediately stood up, clasped their fists and saluted Xiao Zhan, and shouted:
"I've seen Lord Xiao below!"
Seeing the scene in front of him, Xiao Zhan felt a burst of emotion in his heart.
I think that when he first came here, when he served tea to the family elders for the first time in this hall, the insult he received was vivid.
The second time I was here, I was summoned by the lord of the castle, and I was also snubbed.
Now that he's here, the third time he's standing here, these people have completely changed their attitude towards him!
These people, one by one, have expressions that are more respectful than when the emperor comes!
It's only been half a month, and everything has to change!
Now you all knowβ
Xiao Zhan, not a waste!
Xiao Zhan waved his hand and said:
"Don't be polite, everyone, sit down!"
It's no wonder that the guests dare to sit down!
One by one, they stood straight, and they didn't even dare to move.
Where is this to come to eat and drink, it is really a sin!
There are three high-ranking officials here, and the guests all feel uncomfortable.
Even Liu Shixiong and Liu Hao, who have always been arrogant, didn't dare to look at Xiao Zhan, Liu Shixiong was beating the drum in his heart:
"This Xiao Zhan has become completely different now, his temperament......
After this person became a big official, he was violent! He just smiled and stood there still, the suffocating coercion naturally emanated!
Oh, I don't know if this is his official authority? Or is his cultivation a great improvement compared to before?
This Xiao Zhan is a demon! β
Thinking of this, Liu Shixiong's heart was very worried.
He didn't know if the letter he wrote to his son had worked, and if his son would come over today.
Today is the best chance yet!
But he hadn't received the letter and transmission from Liu Jie to come back, and he was very unhappy when he saw Xiao Zhan in the limelight here.
and Liu Hao, who also stared at Xiao Zhan with a gloomy face.
He didn't even have the qualifications to talk to Xiao Zhan now, so he could only sit at a table with those juniors and place them in the most remote corner of the lobby.
"Xiao Zhan, Xiao Zhan!
You're finally here, wait a moment and see how we kill you!
Don't look at you so majestic now, huh! You're in for a treat! β
Although Liu Shixiong did not receive a reply from his son Liu Jie, Liu Hao received a message from his younger brother, telling him that he would come here later!
