Chapter 5 The Mysterious Jiangdu

The scenery of Jiangdu is beautiful, and it has a bit of the charm of the water town in the south of the Yangtze River. The boat gallery draws boats, and the rippling blue water of the lake sets off layers of ripples under the caress of the wind, which is a quiet and leisurely scene. Jiangdu has such a long cultural atmosphere, most of which is due to that ancient and mysterious family, the Jiang family.

"Miss, oh no, young master-" "Mother, since the age of eight, there is only Jiang Xi in this family, and there is no Jiang Che-"

The Jiang family is the largest merchant family in Jiangdu from ancient times to the present, monopolizing almost the entire trade in Jiangdu. Jiangdu opera is famous all over the world, especially the Jiang family, which is a well-known "opera" family. The family education is strict, and each generation of Jiang girls must practice and continue to pass it on.

"Grandma',——"

"Xi'er, you're here. In the bright lobby sat an old lady over the age of six, wearing a cashmere shawl, looking very dignified and graceful.

"The heir of Ruri has appeared,——"

Jiang Xi's eyes were slightly raised, a pair of deep Danfeng eyes were like the vast starry sky, as if he had been sucked back into it accidentally, his eyebrows were clear, and his cheeks were like a standard Jiangnan woman. After finishing speaking, Jiang Xi turned around and left without hesitation, leaving only a trace of arrogant back.

Grandma let out a deep sigh, her eyes full of sadness, guilt, self-blame, and pity......

Tongcheng's clues were broken, and they could only go back to the Hades family to ask their parents about the details of the glass.

"Hello Miss-" Good guy This battle, rows of people stood together, which really scared Shinokage, and Stygian Xue had obviously adapted to this battle, nodded slightly, and pulled her in.

Go further in, there is really a hole in the sky, surrounded by pavilions and buildings in the style of the south of the Yangtze River, the inner courtyard is a blue lake, because of the upright summer, the lotus flowers in the lake bloom delicately and drippingly, the fairies in the pond, dancing, the weeping willows planted by the lake also move with the wind. And this pavilion is all around this lake, isn't it convenient to enjoy this beautiful scenery? Stygian Snow's parents are waiting for their arrival in the main pavilion in the center.

"Father, this is the eldest lady of the Thousand Families - Thousand Shinoying"

Hearing this, the father hurriedly looked at the door, "You are Shinokage, you have grown so big." ”

"Yes, when I first saw you, you were a little doll, but our Shinokage is really getting more and more beautiful!" said the Mother of Darkness.

Shinoying felt a little embarrassed when she heard this, and hurriedly waved her hand and said no, she didn't expect that Grandma Qian had known Mingxue's parents for a long time, and Mingxue was making fun of her, and made fun of her again and again, saying, "I'm sorry, you didn't see her when she first met me." ”

Father and Mother of Hades couldn't be happier to see their daughter befriending Shinokage. Xiaoxue has been taught as the heir of the Hades family since she was a child, she has few friends, and her personality is a little arrogant, and other children dare not deal with the eldest lady of the Hades family, so Xiaoxue has always been very lonely.

"Shinokage, look who's coming. Father said to her suddenly.

She looked back, "Grandma, why are you here!"

"Stinky girl, why can't grandma come, it's not that I'm worried about you!" Grandma Qian Qian walked in from outside the door with a cane, and this posture was full of neutrality. After that, the two of them told them about the glass fragments hidden in the gems, but Shinokage never mentioned the man that night, and when Grandma Qian saw that she wanted to talk about it, she guessed that something must have happened, but she didn't ask.

Although they are demon slayers, they still have to go to school after all, because it is summer vacation, so it is convenient for them to investigate what happened recently, but they still have a headache - homework. In addition, the recent calm has not yet occupied the place where the glass will appear next time, so they have been busy with their homework recently, but having said that, they have deviated from their original intention by writing and writing......

"Hey, Shinokage, do you know that the Jiang family in Jiangdu has recently opened a new jewelry store. ”

"Jiangdu Jiang family?" said that the Jiang family Xiaoying really didn't have any impression, if there were any interesting things, she still knew a lot, "No, Xiaoying, you don't know that the Jiang family, it is the largest business family in Jiangdu, monopolizing almost the entire Jiangdu trade, and many brand goods are handled by the Jiang family." ”

Speaking of which, although the Jiang family is very large, it has to be said that it is a mysterious family. It has been trading in Gangnam for hundreds of years, and of course it also operates many well-known shops. The strangest thing is that they are a female family, as if it were some ancient curse, and the clan has been a girl for generations, without exception for hundreds of years.

"Welcome, Jiang Jewelry. As soon as the front foot entered the store, two well-dressed welcome ladies at the door immediately greeted him. The inside of the store is glittered with gold, and the inside can be described as a palace, and in the center of the hall is a diamond-encrusted lamp, and the cabinets for jewelry are placed around the hall.

The two were shocked by this magnificent scene, although Xiaoxue is the eldest lady of the underworld, they have never seen such a luxurious hall, unlike the largest business family in the country, their family is mainly based on gardens. Sure enough, those who have been businessmen throughout the ages are rich, not to mention that their Jiang family also runs the largest "pear orchard" in China, and there are countless people who come to listen to the opera every day.

Looking at the people who come here to buy jewelry, they are all big people with heads and faces in Jiangdu, all of them wear gold and silver, and they come here in an endless stream to talk about business and do business. Compared with this, the two of them are a little out of place, looking around, I don't know what to do.

Shinokage looked at the rows of jewels and couldn't help but sigh at the exquisite craftsmanship of these gems. She's grown so big, she's never seen so many precious gems. A waiter in front of the counter saw that these two little girls only looked at it and didn't buy it, and felt that they couldn't afford it, so they simply came in to hinder her business, so he sarcastically said, "Little girl, can you buy it? Don't delay the customers behind,"

Hearing her say this, Xiaoxue was angry and replied to her, "What's the matter?"

Xiaoxue's hot temper can not allow others to say this about her, without saying a word, she quarreled with the counter waiter, this quarrel doesn't matter, but the eyes of the people around her gradually gathered on their side, Xiaoying saw that the situation was not quite right, pulled Xiaoxue's sleeve, and whispered in her ear, "Forget it, stop arguing." ”

"No, why do you look down on us, the little girl can't afford to buy jewelry!"

Jiang Xi wanted to push the door and enter, but heard a roar like a rainbow inside. Xiu's eyebrows frowned slightly, and he dragged a person next to him to ask what was going on inside, and Manager Li saw that the eldest lady was coming, and immediately stepped forward to compliment, "Hello, eldest lady!"

"Manager Li, next time something like this happens, you can leave. As soon as these words came out, the frightened manager was sweating all over, and bowed again and again, "I'm sorry, miss, not next time." ”

"What's the use of telling me, immediately, immediately go and apologize to the guest. Manager Li immediately went over to play a round, "I'm sorry, he's new here, he doesn't understand the rules, and I hope the guests will forgive me......" After speaking, he turned to the waiter, and the conversation changed to "Don't apologize to the guests soon!" She looked disdainful and made it clear that she would not apologize.

Suddenly, the surrounding spectators noticed Jiang Xi, and everyone consciously made way for the eldest lady.

"You won't be using it tomorrow,"

"Who are you? Why didn't you let me come!" The people around who were watching the excitement couldn't help but sweat for her, thinking to themselves how this brainless person was recruited, even Miss Jiang didn't know, and it was estimated that she wouldn't want to stay in Jiangdu anymore in the future.

This frightened Manager Li's head was sweating, why did he find such an employee with a bad brain. "Miss Jiang, don't be angry, I'll let her pack up her things and leave. ”

As soon as the little employee heard the words "Miss Jiang", he trembled, couldn't stand, and his words were even more unfavorable, "Big, big, Miss, it's me who has no eyes, I don't want to lose my job, spare me!"

Miss Jiang? Xiaoying raised her eyes and kept looking at him: her fair face was angular, her eyes were cold and arrogant like purple jade, her eyes were full of calm, her face was like ice, her sword eyebrows were starry, her black ponytail was pouring down like a waterfall, and her bangs covered her eyebrows. Shinokage wondered how there could be such a beautiful and proud woman in this world.

"Two young ladies, today it was my staff who was rude and collided with the two, if you don't mind, I will invite the two of you to have a drink. Sakura's lips opened slightly, and in the face of such a polite lady, Xiaoxue blushed slightly, "No, it's okay, I also have something wrong." ”

Shinoying rarely saw Xiaoxue so well-behaved, and she couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. turned to glance at Jiang Xi, and Jiang Xi also raised his eyes to look at Shinoying at this time, and when his eyes met, Shinoying tilted his head embarrassedly. Jiang Xi saw her blushing, a smile tugged at the corner of her mouth, and her heart jumped straight to the bottom of the snow.

"If you have time, don't let go of a face and have a drink. Xiaoying was stunned, the dignified Jiang Clan's eldest lady actually wanted to invite the two of them to be little-known little people?

Along the way, this eldest lady's aura was too strong, walking side by side with him on the road, Xiaoying felt that this Jiang Xi had been staring at her all the way, and she was very uncomfortable looking at her.

After taking a seat at the bar,

"You're Chishinokage. Shinokage was taken aback, it seems that this eldest lady is not a simple character, she doesn't seem to be passing by there by accident today, but seems to be waiting for her appearance, what is her purpose?

"How do you know my name?" Shinokage asked him with a frown.

"Do you think there's anything else the Jiang family can't find out?" Jiang Xi replied for her with a slight smile.

But the two of them suddenly broke out in a cold sweat inexplicably, the rich family is really terrible! What else can't be found out by him? Jiang Xi raised his eyebrows, the corners of his lips curled slightly, and slowly leaned back on the soft red sofa, his left leg elegantly raised his right upper leg, and his arms were inadvertently rested on the sofa.

"I'm offended a lot today, if you don't mind, this is my contact information, I think we can make friends. The two of them glanced at each other, and instantly understood what she meant.

After he finished talking to himself, he got up and went to check out, stopped again, looked back and gave them a "gentle" smile: "But it's okay, the Jiang family can also find out your contact information." With that, he left the bar. Shinokage and Xiaoxue were speechless for a long time, staring blankly at the door.

On the way back, Xiaoxue whispered to Shinokage, "Don't you think he has a domineering president's posture, he always thinks it's cool." ”

But what if he's really a boy?
