Chapter 55: The Visitor Comes
Xiao Zhan suddenly received a letter from the Mitre family today, and the whole person was shocked, he never thought that the patriarch of the Mitre family, Mitre Tengshan, would suddenly come to visit the Xiao family.
After thinking about it for less than half a cup of tea, Xiao Zhan also figured out what was going on.
Yun Ling's death, it is strange that the big forces in the entire holy city are not shocked, this matter is not blocked, and it is very simple to detect.
The Xiao family was originally also a member of the Holy City, but after the death of the old patriarch, they were expelled by those families who fell into the well, and this is why they came to this Utan City.
Now it's okay, the Xiao family has suddenly risen, and the youngest son of the patriarch has worshipped a peerless powerhouse as a teacher, how could they not be surprised and not probe.
After thinking about it, Xiao Zhan hurriedly ran towards the gate of the Xiao family, he wanted to personally greet the arrival of Mitre Teng Mountain.
The Mitre family has no enmity or hatred with the Xiao family, and at this time, the patriarch came to visit in person, if he didn't go to greet the patriarch in person, others would say that he Xiao Zhan was floating...... He's not like that.
Not long after, as soon as Xiao Zhan walked out of the door, he saw Concubine Ya standing there, and beside her, there was a middle-aged man dressed in gorgeous clothes, with fat head and big ears, and squinting eyes.
Looking at this middle-aged man, Xiao Zhan didn't feel that the other party had any momentum or anything like that, but felt that he looked like this, and he looked very kind and wealthy.
After looking at Mittel Tengshan slightly, before Xiao Zhan could speak, Mitelteng Mountain arched his hand at Xiao Zhan and said:
"Brother Xiao, take the liberty to come and invite Haihan! in the Lower Mittelten Mountain."
Mitre Tengshan doesn't care whether this person is the patriarch of the Xiao family or not, anyway, his surname is Xiao, and it is right to call Brother Xiao.
Xiao Zhan was slightly stunned when he saw that the other party did not have the slightest arrogance. But Xiao Zhan quickly came back to his senses, and then hurriedly arched his hand at Mitre Teng Mountain, which was regarded as a return gift. Xiao Zhan then said:
"Hahaha, Brother Tengshan, what are you talking about, Brother can come to the Humble House, Xiao Zhan is very honored. Please...... Inside!"
After hearing Xiao Zhan's self-introduction, Mittel Tengshan breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and the other party's patriarch came to greet him in person, giving him enough face.
"Brother Xiao is really talented, Tengshan is dull......
"Brother Tengshan said that he laughed, Xiao admires you very much, that ......
Looking at the two people who praised each other, a black line gradually appeared on Concubine Ya's forehead, and her better face twitched slightly, these two are worthy of being patriarchs, neither of them has ever seen each other, but they can tout each other's advantages, and there is no repetition.
Awesome, it's amazing. Concubine Ya feels that the road she has to take is still far away!
For a long time, maybe it was because Mittel Tengshan and Xiao Zhan were running out of words, or maybe they talked too much and their mouths were dry. The two glanced at each other, instantly embarrassed.
Mittelteng Mountain is okay, he squints, and he can also see Xiao Zhan's eyes.
Xiao Zhan: ......
"It's not good to talk here, Brother Tengshan, Concubine Ya, please come in quickly."
Xiao Zhan was a little short of words, and he didn't know what it would be better to praise Mittel Teng Mountain, so he was invited again.
Mittel Tengshan nodded, although his cultivation was higher than Xiao Zhan's, his eloquence was also half a catty. This eloquence really has nothing to do with cultivation.
For Xiao Zhan's attitude, Mittel Tengshan is very satisfied, not arrogant or impatient. didn't think that his son had the qualifications to fight the emperor because his son worshipped the strong man as a teacher, which is good, not bad.
This is actually what Mittelteng Mountain was more worried about before he came, afraid that the Xiao family would be the same as the Nalan family, because the children of the clan would learn from the strong, so they would float away and look up at people.
Yun Lan Sect is okay to say that the strength of the Mitre family is not too afraid of the other party. And who is behind the Xiao family, it is not something that the Mitre family can afford to offend.
Even if Xiao Zhan floated away and didn't give him face, Mittel Tengshan would have no choice. People can not give you face, but you can't not give them face! Weakness is the original sin......
"Well, thank you Brother Xiao for your hospitality."
Mitteltenshan didn't talk nonsense either, arched his hand and expressed his gratitude. As for gifts and stuff
, Naturally, it is impossible to take it out of the ring at the gate, and it is not too late to take it out after drinking tea and eating for a while.
"Concubine Ya also thanked Patriarch Xiao!"
Yafei bowed slightly, smiled professionally, and said.
Xiao Zhan naturally knew Concubine Ya, and Concubine Ya had not come to Utan City for a day or two, and the Xiao family and the auction house also had some business to contact, although the two were not very acquainted, they could be regarded as nodding friends.
A group of three people came to the Xiao family's living room not long after.
It is said to be the living room, but in fact, it is the hall of the Xiao family, where the backbone of the family usually meets.
The Xiao family was the poorest of the three major families in Utan City before, and they had spare money to build so many halls and halls. When there is anything important, just arrange it all to the Xiao family hall.
Now there is indeed more wealth, and this money can be used to buy resources and improve the strength of the clan, isn't it fragrant? I didn't make that much pomp.
After the three of them sat down in the hall of the Xiao family, Xiao Zhan asked people to serve refreshments and the like, and asked them to inform the elders that a distinguished guest was coming.
I was in a hurry before, and the Mitre family came to visit, and the two goalkeepers at the gate and Xiao Zhan knew about it, and they hadn't informed a few elders yet.
Asking the elders to come over is naturally not for the sake of the horse, but to express the importance of Mittelten Mountain. You see, all the high-level officials of my family are here, and you are not moved!
After a short time, the second elder and the third elder, who had nothing to do, arrived in the hall.
"What about the Great Elder?"
Xiao Zhan asked the clansmen with some doubts, the location where the second elder and the third elder lived was much farther away from the hall than the location where the great elder lived. Both of them have arrived, where has the Great Elder gone?
"Patriarch, the Great Elder went to the back mountain early in the morning, and he has already asked people to look for it."
"During this time, the Great Elder, how can he go to the back mountain if he has nothing to do, and he is old, and it is not worry-free."
Although Xiao Zhan thought so in his heart, he didn't say it, after all, there are still "outsiders" here, if he says this, wouldn't it make people see a joke?
Mitre Tengshan didn't expect Xiao Zhan to give face so much, and actually called all the high-level officials of his own family, the only one who didn't come, the people were also in trouble, and they didn't find anyone, so they didn't come!
Concubine Ya watched quietly and did not speak. In the case of unequal "strength", it is the right way to talk less and observe more words.
The Great Elder who was helping Xiao Ning cultivate the Eight Extremes Collapse in the back mountain of the Xiao family suddenly sneezed, and the strength in his hand involuntarily used a little more......
Xiao Ning grinned in pain, but he still held back and didn't scream......
These days, I have not only broken through to the eighth stage of Dou Qi and approached the ninth stage......
