Chapter 18: Ling'er's Birthday
Since Xiao Zhan came out of the conference room two days ago, he summoned everyone again in the evening, and issued two very strange orders, the first is to vigorously purchase all kinds of medicinal materials, as long as it is about healing injuries and stopping bleeding, or medicinal materials to improve cultivation, all of them will be purchased.
The second is that all the industries of the Xiao family have shrunk, and all the various industries that were originally going to expand outside have been forced to pause, and this series of actions has directly consumed more than half of the Xiao family's savings in the past few decades, although everyone in the family is very confused, but no one asks why.
Even if someone asks, Xiao Zhan won't tell them, only saying that this is a secret and will be known in a few days, and today, it is a more festive day for the Xiao family, Xiao Linger, the daughter of the head of the family, Xiao Linger, has been waiting for this day for too long.
Today, everyone in the Xiao family was full of smiles on their faces, without him, not only because of Ling'er's status in the Xiao family, but also because Ling'er's popularity in the Xiao family is very good, compared to Xiao Ran, it is more than 108,000 miles, so today Xiao Zhan simply opened an internal family dinner.
In a bamboo hut on the southwest side of the City Lord's Mansion, Xiao Ran was sitting on the table in the living room, playing with a set of utensils on the table with his right hand, while looking into the room from time to time.
Judging from the fragrance and purple curtains that continue to waft out of the bamboo house, it can be clearly distinguished that this is a girl's room, and all kinds of things in the house are arranged neatly, and there are many rare flowers and plants placed in this house, all of which Xiao Ran tried to get back from various places and gave them to Ling'er.
The owner of this bamboo house, Xiao Zhan's daughter Ling'er's room, since Ling'er was ten years old, has been separated from Xiao Ran's room, Xiao Ran because he doesn't like to live with his father Xiao Zhan and others, so he will move out of here, and the house where Xiao Ran originally lived is still idle next to it.
"Ling'er, dress up, it's been so long!" Xiao Ran chuckled at the back room.
"Brother Xiao Ran, wait a minute, the people are not okay yet, it will be fine soon!" Ling'er's crisp and cheerful voice came from inside the house, and then the sound continued to come from inside.
Looks bored, Xiao Ran looked around, while constantly looking around the house, in the previous life, Ling'er died this afternoon, and it was very strange to die in the abandoned courtyard behind the Xiao family, and the death was even more miserable, so Xiao Ran came to Ling'er's room early in the morning today, in order to avoid the tragedy of the previous life from happening again.
Xiao Ran now not only has self-confidence but also has this strength, just last night, Xiao Ran's long-suppressed cultivation can no longer be suppressed, and he has to break through again to reach the eighth level of the swordsman, and Xiao Ran's body, after so many days of drug tempering and his own true qi from the inside out, has already reached the peak of the great swordsman, and now Xiao Ran has the confidence to fight with the great swordsman with his physical body alone, if he adds his true qi and his own swordsmanship, even if the swordsman or even the great swordsman comes, Xiao Ran has the confidence to fight.
I have to say that the girl was very slow to dress up, and it was probably about the time of waiting for a cup of tea again before the sound of light footsteps came from the house.
Turning her head to look, a girl wearing a lilac Luo shirt, a turquoise hairpin, and a smile on her face instantly rushed to Xiao Ran's face, and the little face without rouge didn't know if it was the reason for running or seeing Xiao Ran, it turned red and fluttered, looking very cute, and the long hair that reached the waist was simply tied up, looking less shy and a little more agile, which made Xiao Ran slightly stunned.
"Brother Xiao Ran, what's wrong?" Ling'er ran to Xiao Ran and saw Xiao Ran looking at herself in a daze, and thought that something was wrong with her, so she was so frightened that she quickly lowered her head and looked around.
Xiao Ran, who came back to his senses in an instant, looked at Ling'er with a smile and chuckled: "I'm looking at why Ling'er in our family is so beautiful, come and hug my brother!" Xiao Ran teased.
"Okay!" Xiao Ran's words fell, and a gust of fragrant wind came to his nose, but the lovely person on the other side had already pounced into Xiao Ran's arms.
Surrounded by a delicate body that was still a little soft, Xiao Ran's heart warmed, and at the same time, he also strengthened his belief in protecting his relatives.
"Okay, they're all such big people, they're not big or small, come down quickly!" Xiao Ran said speechlessly, at this moment, Ling'er, who was already fifteen years old, was hanging on Xiao Ran's body with her whole body, almost making Xiao Ran breathless, so that Xiao Ran had to say.
"Okay!" The little girl stuck out her tongue playfully, then turned around and walked outside the house, saying as she went: "Brother Xiao Ran, didn't you say that you were going to take me to play today? Anyway, it's still early before the dinner, take me to play?"
"En!" Xiao Ran chuckled and caught up with Ling'er's figure leaving outside, and then the two of them slowly walked into the distance, and walked straight out of Xiao's house towards the street.
Walking on the street, Xiao Ran took Ling'er and slowly walked towards the flower and herb market in Tianwu City, where all kinds of flowers and plants existed, and girls must like it very much, and with Xiao Ran's understanding of girls, she naturally took Ling'er there directly.
Walking on the street, countless people on the road looked at the two of them, no way, Xiao Ranchang himself is very handsome, this is a fact, but it is a little notorious, so no one looks at him, everyone's eyes are focused on Ling'er.
Ling'er's originally very beautiful little face coupled with today's deliberate dress, and then walking on the street in a purple Luo shirt, the passers-by next to him looked pale in comparison, so it is not an exaggeration to become the focus of everyone's attention, but Ling'er himself did not notice this, and finally came out for a trip, naturally to have fun, and Xiao Ran was even more unconcerned, but Xiao Ran's eyes were full of vigilance to look around, and his own spiritual power was even more enveloped in all places within a radius of ten zhang.
Although this consumes Xiao Ran's spiritual power, for the sake of Ling'er, this spiritual power is still worth expending.
The City Lord's Mansion is on the edge of Tianwu City, and the flower and plant market is also on the edge of Tianwu City, and the two are very close to each other, and after just a while, the two of them came to this so-called flower and plant market.
Turning a small corner, a huge semicircular door appeared in the eyes of the two, like an ordinary arch bridge, but the difference from the arch bridge is that the curved door is full of flowers, which looks so good-looking, Ling'er can't help but stop when he sees it.
"Let's go!" Xiao Ran chuckled in the back: "There are better ones in it, if you like it, I'll buy it for you!"
"Really?" said Ling'er's eyes lit up.
"Naturally!"
Hearing Xiao Ran's words, Ling'er immediately walked inside, the flower and grass market, there are not only all kinds of good-looking flowers and plants, but also medicinal materials and cherished trees dug from the Warcraft Forest, these things gathered together to form another market that is no less than the Demon Yi Market, and most of the trading sources of the entire Tianwu City come from these markets.
