Chapter 4 The Su Family
There is a sheep intestine trail in the extreme west of the inner city of the imperial city, and the two sides of the road are planted with white trees, this tree grows in the white mountain, and it is not encountered in a hundred years. A layer of silver grease on the leaves, like a white snow that does not melt all year round, and when the breeze passes, such as mercury flows, it is good-looking.
Only one white tree is hard to find, and the path in front of the Su family has been planted so much, which shows the strength of one of the four major families in the north.
But he said that this Su family.
A young handyman, dressed in brown linen clothes and with a sharp hand and feet, walked briskly through the courtyard and knocked softly on the door of the study.
After about half an hour, the door of the study slowly opened from the inside, and what came into view was a middle-aged man about forty years old, dressed elegantly, and his every move was full of the breath of a scholar, this person was Su Wen, the contemporary head of the Su family. In the year of his establishment, he took over the power of the family, although he did not have much merit, but he did not make much mistake, and it was dull.
"What's the matter?" Su Wen rubbed his temples with his hands with haggard eyes, the affairs of the clan have been busy recently, even if he has worked hard to spare all his energy, he is busy flying like a headless fly.
"Master, someone outside the door asks to see him, this is his token, saying that as long as he shows it to the head of the family, he will naturally understand the reason. As he spoke, the young handyman handed the cyan ring-shaped jade pendant in his hand to Su Wen.
Su Wen took the jade pendant, was stunned for a moment, suddenly thought of something, and said with a happy look on his face: "Quickly invite people into the living room, serve the best tea and snacks, and entertain you, I'll go wash up first." ”
The young handyman was stunned, he hadn't seen his master behave like this for a long time, bathing and burning incense to meet guests was the highest etiquette, I remember that the master came over from the palace last year, I don't know what the origin of the young man outside is, so that the master attaches so much importance to it. This was also a stunned effort, and the young handyman immediately relieved himself, did not dare to slack off, and walked towards the gate of Su Mansion in three steps and two steps.
......
"This son, our lord invites you in. ”
Su Qi followed the young handyman slowly, but the Su family was very different from the Rongwang Mansion. King Rong's Mansion gives people the feeling that it is heavily guarded and full of soldiers. The Su family is a small bridge and flowing water, strange flowers and plants, rockeries and beautiful bamboos, a southern style.
"The ancestors of the Su family moved from the south and settled here, because they missed the scenery of their hometown, so they asked the craftsmen to build it in the style of the south. The young handyman looked at his words and looks, as if he knew what Su Qi was thinking, and opened his mouth to introduce it.
"Oh?" Su Qi glanced at the other party in surprise: "I haven't asked the daimyo yet." ”
"Don't dare to ask for advice, the boy's cheap name is Ah No, because of the mercy of the master, give a surname Su, if the son is in need, just call the boy Ah No. ”
Su Qi nodded, a big family is a big family, and an ordinary handyman talks so much.
This is Su Qi's misunderstanding. This Ah Bu is still quite famous in the Su family, this person's cultivation talent is so high, even the four major families have heard of it.
"Childe, please wait here for a while, my lord will come over soon. Ah Bu invited the guests to their seats, made a cup of the best passion tea in the house, and then retreated, leaving Su Qi alone.
Su Qi looked around, this living room was well-behaved, but it was not very special.
After waiting for about half a pillar of incense, a person rushed to outside the hall door, with slightly white temples, elegant posture, and a lingering tone on his body.
"But... But Su Shaoxia?"
"Why did Uncle Su see each other like this, we met each other when we were seven years old!"
"It's me who has seen the outside, I have seen the outside, how is my Meng'er?"
"The little junior brother is doing well, and after a while, the master should let him go down the mountain. ”
Hearing this, Su Wen looked happy, and the fatigue of the past few days has dissipated a lot.
"Uncle Su, since I'm here, it's all up to you. "When Su Qi went down the mountain before, the master handed him a cyan ring-shaped jade pendant, and asked him to go to King Rong first, and if he couldn't find it, he would go to Su's house.
"Okay, the virtuous nephew will live in the Su family first, but in a few days, if you want to trouble the virtuous nephew. ”
After that, the two discussed for a long time in the meeting room, and outsiders did not know.
......
"Have you heard, there is a guest from the Su family, very young, and it is said that his surname is Su!"
"Yes, I remember that the third young master has been fostered outside since he was a child, do you think it will be the third young master who has returned?"
"It's really possible at that age. ”
"Could it be that he is coming back to fight for the position of the heir of the head of the family?"
"These things are not for us to discuss, we just need to do our part. ”
"Ah, ah, it's not a big man!"
"Oh no good!"
The two young handymen walked away in a panic and got busy with the things in hand, and Ah Wuzhi shook his head slightly.
......
Following.
"The surname is Su, come out quickly, my brother Xun wants to see you. ”
"The surname Su, hurry up!"
Su Qi turned over on the bed, took out the cotton stuffed in his ears, grabbed his hair irritably, and got out of bed helplessly.
"Squeak-"
Seeing the door open, Su Xin looked happy and was about to go inside, only to see a big face appear in front of him.
"The surname is Su, the surname is Su, don't you have the surname Su, bother Lao Tzu and throw you to the prison mountain!"
"Bang!"
Su Xin's smile froze there, looking at the closed door, his sideburns flew wildly, his ears were buzzing, and the sound of a lion's roar was especially ringing in his ears.
Su Qi closed the door angrily, and after venting like this, he was really in a much better mood.
After driving for so long, I was finally able to sleep peacefully, but this child named Su Xin disturbed people's dreams early in the morning, and shouted at the door of the house with a male duck's throat, even if it was stuffed with cotton, it had no effect. I had to use the big thunder sound lion roar, which is known for its rhythm and soul-shaking, but fortunately I controlled the strength, otherwise if the ten-layer skill went down, the next moment the Su family would have to cry out for soul.
But after shouting, Su Qi felt a little guilty, after all, he was only a seven or eight-year-old child. So I felt guilty for a while, and slept while the child was still stunned.
"The surname is Su... The one inside, come out quickly, or wait for my brother Xun to come over, you look good!"
"Squeak-" The door opened again, and Su Xin took three steps back, for fear that the person in front of him would roar again.
Su Qi looked at the child in front of him in surprise, he looked fat and chubby, not ugly but very cute, just... Why is this kid's eyes a little silly?
"Han Wa'er, the foundation is good, and you can recover so quickly. Su Qi praised it from the bottom of his heart, seeing that this Han Baby also opened the second trick, generally the second trick martial artist had to take at least a stick of incense to ease his senses after the roar just now, but this Trick Boy can come back to his senses in less than half a pillar of incense, and this foundation is not solid!
"Who is a Han baby, you are a Han baby, your whole family is a Han baby. ”
"What, what, let me down. ”
Su Qiyi grabbed Su Xin's back collar, no matter how he struggled with his hands and feet, he just hung in the air, standing still.
"Didn't you say that your brother Xun was looking for me, take me now. ”
"Seventh Prince, Young Master Xin is also an unintentional mistake, it is too unseemly to carry him like this, please put Young Master Xin down. ”
Su Qi carefully looked at the person who suddenly appeared in front of him, brown linen, wearing a square scarf, and an ordinary face was featureless, wasn't it Ah Bu who led the way for him yesterday.
"Brother Abu, teach him a lesson. ”
Su Xin was excited when he saw Ah Bu, and he struggled even more fiercely.
Su Qi glanced at the child in his hand.
"No, you can't stop me. ”
"I know, so I'm here to go through the motions, not to come up and fight you. Hearing this, Ah Bu was not annoyed and angry, and snorted.
"Well, that's my duty, I can't stop it after I say it, you continue. After saying that, Ah Bu left, leaving Su Xin, who was gradually despairing.
The people of the Su family are all quite interesting, and Su Qi has now begun to wonder what kind of person Brother Xun is in Su Xin's mouth.
"Okay, take me to see your brother Xun, just show the way with your mouth. ”
Just wanted to say put it down and take him over, but he didn't expect to be blocked before he could exit, Su Xin pouted angrily, and pointed out the way to Su Qi angrily.
"Brother Xun, save me, Brother Xun!"
When he came to a beautiful hexagonal attic, Su Xin opened his throat and shouted.
"Noise!" Su Qi gently patted Su Xin's head with his palm, and under the intimidation, Su Xin immediately closed his mouth. I don't know how many times I've been patted on the head along the way, don't look at him just a light pat, and I didn't feel any pain, but every time I took a beat, I felt an urgency to urinate, and there were a few times when I slapped it harder, and I almost peed my pants.
"How could a pink child have such a male duck voice, hey, ruined. Su Qi glanced at the child in his hand with a little pity.
"Hmm, hmm. Su Xin wanted to refute a few words, but in the end he was dominated by fear, and the person in front of him was too bad.
"Let go of Brother Xin. ”
A mellow sound came, followed by a continuous stream of palm shadows.
There is a thick white mist rising from the palm, like a deep pool, freezing people and seeping bones.
Su Qi's left hand gently pushed away the Han boy in his hand, and at this time it was too late to make unnecessary movements, so he could only block with his right arm.
"Smack-" There was a crack, crisp as breaking ice.
Su Qi raised his hand, and a thin layer of ice had formed on his sleeves.
At this time, a figure flashed by him, and when he said goodbye, he had returned to the attic, the man was dressed in brocade and jade robes, with a face like a crown of jade, and he was standing in the corridor on the second floor of the hexagonal attic with one hand in his arms.
Su Qi touched his cheeks, and he seemed to be a little darker than him.
"Brother Xun, this is the bad guy, teach him a lesson. Su Xin saw that he was in Su Xun's arms, he had a sense of security and confidence, and he shouted at his male duck throat.
Su Xun frowned and looked at the person in front of him, his face was slightly dark, he looked like he was fifteen or sixteen years old, his eyes were like ink, his eyebrows were like distant mountains, he was dressed in coarse cloth, and on his feet was a pair of brand-new straw sandals... Good soil!
"You are Su Qi, the heir of Uncle Wu?"
