The boundary of Jiangzhou is 900 miles in radius, with three mountains, one lake and one city.

Overlooking Tianfu Mountain in the east, Lingxu Peak in the west, Wumang Mountain in the north, Jiangzhou City is surrounded by mountains on three sides, and the official road is in the south to Qinglian Lake.

Qinglian Village on the shore of Qinglian Lake, surrounded by mountains and rivers, has beautiful scenery, and a small river divides the village into two.

The Qian family lives in the east of the river, close to Tianfu Mountain, and the Li family lives in the west of the river, adjacent to Qinglian Lake.

Although they are in the same village, the two families have always been at odds.

The Qian family relied on their wealth and was arrogant and domineering in the village, while most of the Li family were honest fishermen, who could always endure and rarely cared.

The villagers make a living from fishing, and after paying the Iron Riders every month, they can barely make ends meet......

The happy event in the village made the villagers see a rare smile on their faces......

Li Deshun of the Li family is kind and benevolent, highly respected in the village, and is very famous in several surrounding villages for his mastery of Hongying Boxing. Today is his 60th birthday, so there is an endless stream of villagers who come to help......

"Those who know me say I am worried, and those who don't know me say what I want. In the bluestone courtyard, a young man in cloth groaned softly.

But seeing that the young man was born rich and handsome, his eyes were like stars, his eyebrows were like ink paintings, and the whole person looked gentle and elegant, and his jade and gold appearance could not be concealed under the rough cloth......

At this time, Ling Shaoyun's brows furrowed slightly, as if there was lingering boredom in his heart, and the joy outside the wall didn't seem to infect him at all.

"Yun'er!" But at the sound of a soft call, a woman in her fifties with a haggard face walked out of the room and looked sickly at the young man in the courtyard.

Ling Shaoyun came back to his senses and looked at the woman: "Mother, why did you come out, is there something wrong with calling the child?"

The woman was Ling Shaoyun's mother, Xiao Hongyan, and looking at her son's depressed appearance, she naturally understood what he was thinking.

couldn't help but feel a burst of sadness that made her cough again and again: "Ahem...... Ahem, Yun'er, today is your Uncle Li's 60th birthday, you bring two jars of fruit wine to congratulate you. ”

After saying that, he turned around and went into the house worriedly.

Looking at her mother's back, I thought of her illness...... No, it should be said that it was poisonous, Ling Shaoyun couldn't help but moisten his eyes.

The sword book on his mother's body, he can recite it backwards, and he has been practicing literature and martial arts for more than ten years, exhaling and absorbing qi, only knowing that he is practicing a kind of swordsmanship, but he has never used a sword......

Everything was strange to him, and he grew up lonely and lonely, and he obeyed his mother's instructions, rarely walked around the village, and never showed himself in front of people.

In recent days, the anguish in his heart has become more and more intense, because he has never seen his father, and he does not know his name. If his mother doesn't say it, he will never ask.

The sky was getting dark, Ling Shaoyun walked into the courtyard of Li Deshun's house, at this time the banquet was already open, there were really many people who came to celebrate his birthday, and everyone surrounded an old man who was full of energy and red faces.

The old man was Li Deshun, and I saw him clasping his fists with both hands and responding to everyone one by one, and the entire Li family's courtyard was very lively.

"Brother Yun" heard a coquettish cry like a silver bell, and a green jade hand held Ling Shaoyun. Ling Shaoyun looked sideways, and a beautiful girl with clear eyebrows and delicate eyes was looking at her with a slight smile.

This beautiful girl is Li Deshun's pearl Li Yueer. Ling Shaoyun and Li Yue'er can be regarded as childhood sweethearts, they have been playing together by Qinglian Lake since they were children, but they are slightly estranged when they grow up.

Ling Shaoyun was tightly held by Li Yue'er's arm, which made him feel uneasy, and he couldn't help but blush: "Sister Yue'er, I learned that today is your father's sixtieth birthday, I brought two jars of fruit wine to show my heart!"

Li Yue'er held Ling Shaoyun and said playfully: "Brother Yun, I haven't seen you for many days, I thought that you would definitely come today, Yue'er is thinking about you!"

Ling Shaoyun coughed lightly, looked at the beautiful girl in front of him, and said with an indifferent smile: "I've been taking care of my mother recently, so I haven't walked around the village......

"My father would be glad to know you're here. After Li Yue'er finished speaking, she pulled Ling Shaoyun and walked towards Li Deshun.

When he came to Li Deshun, Ling Shaoyun bowed slightly, and said politely: "Shaoyun has seen Uncle Li, and my little nephew has come to pay you a birthday greeting." ”

Li Deshun looked at Ling Shaoyun with a smile on his face and said, "Okay, nephew Shaoyun, it's good to come, and I'll have a drink with the old man later." Ling Shaoyun responded: "Definitely." After speaking, he was pulled by Li Yue'er and walked towards the crowd.

Li Deshun looked at the backs of the two leaving, and sighed secretly in his heart: He is a person who practices martial arts, there is only this girl under his knees, and the child in front of him is already a young man.

At the time of the lantern, the courtyard was already full of friends. At this time, more than a dozen people who came to celebrate their birthday walked into the courtyard.

The leader was an old man of medium height, dressed in a cyan robe, with thin cheeks and a lewd appearance.

Beside the old man was a man of twenty-five or sixteen years old, with oily hair and pink face, and brightly dressed, with an empty look, looking around at the guests with disdain.

Everyone got up one after another after seeing the old man, and when Li Deshun saw it, his heart sank, and he hurriedly greeted him.

This old man is the third in the Qian family, named Qian Rugui, the eldest and the second moved to Jiangzhou City in his early years. The oily-haired man is Qian Long, the son of the second eldest of the Qian family, and behind him are a group of family members.

Qian Rugui saw Li Deshun coming to him, grinned, and said without a smile: "Today is Brother Li's 60th birthday, and my Qian family also came to join in the fun to congratulate him." ”

Li Deshun looked at the people of the Qian family and arched his hand: "Brother Qian is really a distinguished guest, I am grateful to be here today." ”

Although the Qian and Li families have always been at odds, since people came to celebrate their birthdays, Li Deshun could only greet each other reasonably, and then arranged for a group of people to sit down.

Li Deshun was in the first place, the uncle and nephew of the Qian family sat at the bottom, and the wild vegetarian food was put up. Qian Long, who was accustomed to eating big fish and meat, was suddenly tasteless when he saw the vegetarian food on the table, and a mocking sneer appeared on his face.

At this time, Li Yue'er accompanied Ling Shaoyun over and sat next to her father. The Qian family's uncle and nephew's eyes lit up when they saw Li Yue'er, and Qian Long's eyes lit up even more, looking at it with a full complexion.

I saw that although she was only sixteen or seventeen years old, her figure was convex and concave, with a delicate girl's face, red and white, with small eyebrows and a small mouth, and her eyes shining like stars, she was really a wonderful little beauty.

couldn't help but say to himself: What the third uncle said is really right, this Li Deshun's daughter is really good-looking, and she really didn't come here in vain. He is looking for flowers and willows all day long, and he can also be called a veteran of flowers, but those are all rouge and vulgar fans, how can they be compared with Li Yue'er in front of him. Wouldn't it be wonderful if you could get Li Yue'er in your hands.

Seeing the Qian family's uncle and nephew staring at her, Li Yue'er's pretty face suddenly turned crimson, and she glared at the Li family's uncle and nephew fiercely.

The corners of Ling Shaoyun's mouth were slightly raised, and he smiled secretly, looking around at the guests with a leisurely expression.

Li Deshun also felt that the Qian family's uncle and nephew had bad intentions, so he picked up the wine glass, got up and said: "Today is the 60th birthday of the old man, thank you for coming to congratulate you, I would like to give you a glass." Seeing that everyone got up one after another, the uncle and nephew of the Qian family withdrew their gaze that stayed on Li Yue'er, and also got up and picked up the wine glass, and followed everyone to drink it all.

After drinking, I sat down, only to see Qian Rugui glanced at Li Deshun, coughed dryly and said: "Brother Li is so blessed, his daughter is so handsome, she shouldn't suffer in this Qinglian Village, I think he will be rich and wealthy when he marries a famous and rich family in the future, Brother Li, you will also enjoy Qingfu." ”

Li Deshun said indifferently: "Brother Lao Qian bothered, the old man is a rough person, the little girl is not talented, the old man does not interfere in the marriage matter, everything is just the little girl's will." ”
