Chapter 40: New Year's Bells

When she came to Lin Xi's room, Lin Miao saw Lin Xi lying on the bed with a sick look.

But how could this trick be hidden from Lin Miao, she lifted Lin Xi's quilt and said coldly: "Give you three numbers, you'd better get up for me right away." ”

Lin Xi was also honest, and as soon as he heard Lin Miao's words, he immediately got up from the bed.

"Didn't you suffer from the cold?"

"Isn't it uncomfortable?"

Lin Miao said with a smile to Lin Xi.

Lin Xi immediately sold well, "Eldest sister...... I didn't see you coming, I was suffering from the cold, but I still dragged my sick body to meet you. ”

Lin Miao poked Lin Xi's head with a finger and said, "Don't play tricks on me, I don't know you yet?" ”

"Where's Daddy? He's not with you? ”

"Isn't he in the hall?" Lin Xi asked suspiciously.

"Not there." Lin Miao returned.

"What about the study or something? Did you find it? Lin Xi continued to ask.

"I asked, and they didn't see Daddy go to the study." Lin Miao said.

Hearing this, Lin Xi knew what was going on, he was sold by Lin Zhiwei, "Old man, you are really a chicken thief." Lin Xi muttered in a low voice.

"What?"

"Oh...... It's okay, it's okay, let's go find the old man first, I don't want to be scolded by you alone. Lin Xi said weakly.

Lin Miao squinted at Lin Xi, and Lin Xi immediately didn't dare to speak.

"Then find Daddy first, so that you can be considered a companion." Lin Miao said.

Hearing this, Lin Xi immediately got up from the bed, and followed Lin Miao obediently out of the room and walked out of the courtyard.

Xiao Ling'er, who was in the courtyard, was also a little curious when she saw Lin Xi's well-behaved appearance, so she asked Xiao Qu what was going on.

"The eldest lady is the person that the little Hou Ye is most afraid of, I remember that in the past, the little Hou Ye can be said to be afraid of the eldest lady who is not afraid of anyone, even the Hou Ye and the little Hou Ye can scold a few words, but the eldest lady and the little Hou Ye dare not speak out."

"Why?" Xiao Ling'er asked.

Lan'er, who was on the side, also looked at Xiao Quen with tee-eyed eyes, waiting for her to continue.

"That's because the eldest lady is not used to the temper of the little marquis, if you want to fight, you will really fight, pick up such a big wooden stick and hit the little marquis." Saying that, Xiao Quen also used his hand to compare the size of the wooden stick, and it can be seen from Xiao Quen's comparison that the size of the wooden stick is at least as thick as her forearm.

"I still remember one time when the little marquis was beaten purple several times by the eldest lady on his back. It hurts to look at it. ”

"Then Hou Ye didn't pull a little?" Lan'er asked.

Xiao Ling'er and Xiao Quen glanced at Lan'er, and their eyes seemed to be saying that you are very energetic to listen to these things, this girl.

"How dare Hou Ye stop him, if you still stop Hou Ye, you will have to be beaten together!"

"So fierce?"

"Uh-huh." Xiao Quen nodded.

"Okay, okay, I won't talk to you guys, this time looking at my eldest lady's face, the little Hou Ye and the Hou Ye are probably indispensable to scold." Xiao Quen said.

Xiao Ling'er nodded and said okay, but Lan'er's little girl said unsatisfactorily: "Let's talk about it, let's talk about it?" ”

"I really didn't expect the dignified little marquis to be beaten by his sister."

As he was talking, a hand appeared on Lan'er's head, "Oops...... Eh!! ”

"Miss, miss, don't press it, don't press it." Lan'er prayed.

"You girl is getting bigger and smaller, I have to teach you a lesson."

Xiao Qu on the side saw that Lan'er's girl's voice was too loud and came to the rescue: "Today is Chinese New Year's Eve, let's let her go first." ”

Xiao Ling'er let Lan'er go, "I'll let you go this time, if you girl is so big or small, I'll let you taste the taste of the stick." ”

Lin Xi followed behind Lin Miao and was looking around for traces of this Lin Zhiwei.

Lin Xi shouted loudly: "Lin Zhi, for you, the chicken thief, come out for me." ”

Lin Zhiwei, who was in Lin Yueyuan, had been hiding for a long time now, and even drank a little tea leisurely here.

Suddenly, a voice came and scolded himself, but Lin Zhiwei was not angry, but smiled happily, because this voice was Lin Xi's, which meant that Lin Miao's girl had already found Lin Xi first. In this way, even if he is found, he will be trained with Lin Xi, thinking of this Lin Zhiwei, he can't help but laugh and walk towards the main hall.

Walking out of Lin Yue's courtyard, she happened to collide with Lin Xi and Lin Miao who were walking here, "The big girl is back!" Lin Zhiwei saw Lin Miao smile and said that he gave Lin Miao a big hug.

Lin Xi also said on the side: "Lin Zhi is a real chicken thief for you, I am afraid that I will be trained by the eldest sister and hidden." ”

Lin Zhiwei smiled and said, "How can I say this, I'm inspecting the places in the mansion that still need to be cleaned." ”

"How many people in the house need ......"

Lin Xi was cut off by Lin Miao halfway through speaking, "Don't quarrel with me, come with me to my courtyard first, I have to talk to you well." ”

Lin Xi and Lin Zhiwei looked at each other and obediently followed behind Lin Miao.

When I came to Lin Miao's courtyard, the courtyard was very clean, and it was often cleaned at a glance, and one of the maids in the courtyard saw Lin Miao coming back and immediately greeted Lin Miao with a smile.

"Miss, you're back."

Lin Miao nodded and said, "Aunt Li has worked hard for you, this is cleaned every day." ”

The servant known as Aunt Li also immediately returned: "No hard work, no hard work." ”

"Okay, then Aunt Li, you can go and take care of your own business first, I still have something to talk to Master Hou."

Hearing Lin Miao's words, Aunt Li saw Lin Xi and Lin Zhiwei with the cat behind.

"Master Hou."

"Little Marquis."

Lin Xi and Lin Zhiwei nodded.

After finishing speaking, Aunt Li left, leaving Lin Zhi as Lin Xi and Lin Miao.

Lin Zhiwei and Lin Xi lowered their heads and didn't dare to look at Lin Miao, as if they were two children who had done something wrong.

When they came to the room, Lin Miao sat on one side, and Lin Xi and Lin Zhiwei sat on one side.

"Tell me, why did you kid think of practicing martial arts?"

Hearing Lin Miao's question, Lin Xi said, "Huh...... In order to strengthen the body, not to be hollowed out by beauty. ”

Lin Miao also covered her face when she heard Lin Xi's answer like this, and she didn't know what to say for a while, so she had to shake her head and ask Lin Zhiwei, because the moment he looked at Lin Xi, she knew that it was too late, Lin Xi He had now entered the cultivation world, and he was now a person in the second realm.

So I can only say more about why Lin Zhiwei did not prevent Lin Xi from taking the path of cultivators, and then Lin Miao gave Lin Xi and Lin Zhiwei a good lecture for the two, and it is good that today is Chinese New Year's Eve, otherwise Lin Miao's nature will definitely give him two fat beatings.

————

Night fell, tonight is Chinese New Year's Eve, Dongwu Marquis everyone also ate Chinese New Year's Eve dinner together, plus soldiers and others in the mansion, including no less than 50,000 people, so to make this Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, also used a lot of cooks, including countless dishes.

Lin Zhiwei sat at the top, Lin Xi Lin Yue and Lin Miao were next to Lin Zhiwei, this time the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner Xu Tianyi Xiao Ling'er and others also came here, originally Lin Xi wanted Xiao Ling'er to sit next to him, but Xu Tianyi Xiao Ling'er everyone refused, and they sat below with the next people.

Every year on Chinese New Year's Eve, the Tobu Marquis Mansion is the most lively, because everyone rests, no need to work, no need to go to the front to fight. Laughter filled the entire Tobu Hou Mansion, and at the same time, Lin Zhiwei raised his glass and said: "Help everyone get better and better in the new year!" "The reunion of Chinese New Year's Eve began.

Everyone is very happy, and Lan'er's girl also doesn't recognize life, she can say a few words when she sees anyone, she says it is delicious when she eats this dish, and she says it is delicious when she eats that dish, in such an atmosphere, Lan'er spent a Chinese New Year's Eve night that she will never forget in her life............

It's the beginning of a new year, and this year's New Year's bell is struck by Lin Xi, so Lin Xi and Lin Zhiwei came to Wuming Mountain very early, and there is an ancient bronze bell on Wuming Mountain, which is a bronze bell that tells people every year that the new year is coming. Originally, it was sounded by Lin Zhiwei in previous years, but this year it was replaced by Lin Xi.

Finally, at the middle of the hour, Lin Xi began to ring a bell representing the New Year.

Because of Lin Xi's sword practice, Lin Xi's bell ringing was very loud.

The bell rang for almost a quarter of an hour, a hundred and sixty-six times, each loud and loud.

The people of Weizhou ushered in the new year with this bell, and the remaining twelve golden armorers in the Dongwu Marquis Mansion all showed different colors. Only the Captain of Tobu shook his head and smiled. Some of them were almost stunned.

After the bell rang, the group hiked down Wuming Mountain, and the Dongwu Marquis, who was walking side by side with Lin Xi, said slowly: "Do you know when you started learning sword pu or something?" ”

Lin Xi shook his head and said, "I don't know." ”

"In my current state, I think there are still things I have learned, and there are still a lot of things that I haven't learned at the most basic."

"If you start to learn the sword pu, I will keep all the swords in the house for you, and you can choose when the time comes."

"I'm talking about it."

The Marquis of Tobu nodded and looked at the Marquis of Tobu's Mansion below......

After returning to the mansion, Lin Xi did not return to his courtyard for the first time, but came to the small lake court alone, still carrying a pot of wine in his hand, but this time the wine was not the last spirit, but a kind of peach blossom wine with excellent quality.

Lin Xi sat in the small lake courtyard, looked at the lake and muttered, "Old Xu, today is Chinese New Year's Eve, and this year's Chinese New Year's Eve is finally better." Think about the previous years, what were the two of us, and it was a good year to have a game to eat. That pot of spirits, we still save and drink, how can it be like today, drink as much wine as you want, and eat meat if you want to. ”

"The only regret...... Yes, if you are not there, if you see such a battle today, you will be shocked and speechless. ”

Saying that, Lin Xi took out two bowls and poured two bowls of wine, Lin Xi still picked up the bowls and drank them all, this time because the wine was not so spicy, Lin Xi was not as screwed as last time.

"Lao Xu, don't you know that today I went to Wuming Mountain to ring the New Year's bell, my bell is loud, I can ring one hundred and sixty-six times."

Lin Xi drank a bowl of wine, and kept talking about the interesting things that had happened to him these days, maybe it was because today's wine was not as strong as before, Lin Xi was not even drunk.

In the end, Lin Xi drank the wine he brought, and was about to leave, when he poured another bowl of wine into the lake, suddenly a few peach petals floated in the air, Lin Xi stretched out his hand, and the petals happened to fall into his hand, I don't know if he was talking about Lin Xi, how good the wine was actually poured into the lake or what, but Lin Xi smiled and said, "You guy............"
