Chapter 220: "Brothers" Reunited
Long Yi raised his eyebrows one by one, looking at Xiao Yi suspiciously, not knowing what was the reason for her hesitant expression.
"Young Master, do you really want to keep that Li Qing by your side?" Xiao Yi raised her head and asked, a little hesitation flashing in her transparent eyes.
"What's the problem? Did you predict anything? When Long heard Xiao Yi ask, he immediately knew that she must have noticed something.
Xiao Yi's eyes flashed, and he said softly: "This person has a stubborn personality, and there is a hidden blood light on his body, I am afraid that it will be unfavorable to the young master in the future." ”
"How so? The first time I saw him, I knew that he was definitely not this kind of person, are you too careful? Long Yi said with a smile, he was confident that he would not look at the wrong person, Li Qing is a person who is a person who is dead to reason, and since he recognizes himself, he will never betray the judgment.
Xiao Yi opened her mouth and swallowed it back, she didn't predict that Li Qing would be unfavorable to Long Yi, but would be loyal to Long Yi in the future, but some unclear fragments that occasionally floated by made her feel very uneasy, seeing that Long Yi was so confident, she wondered if it was really her own heart.
"Go back, I'll pay attention later." Long Yi smiled and patted Xiao Yi's head, then turned around and walked towards Ximen Mansion.
Xiao Yi was stunned for a long time, and suddenly a beautiful smile bloomed with a slight blush, and she followed lightly. It's been a long time since Ryuichi had touched her so intimately, and Ryuichi's casual gesture made her heart jump, because she could think of a lot from it.
"Young master, the girl in the back has been following us." Xiao Yi rushed up and said to Long Yi.
Long Yi smiled, and didn't look back, he had already felt it.
"Leave her alone, she should go for Li Qing. This kid is really lucky. Long Yi said with a smile.
At the gate of Ximen Mansion, Manniu and Li Qing were standing at the door waiting for Long Yi, Manniu was a straight man, and he had long forgotten the previous unpleasantness. For him, since he is a person from Ryuichi, he is his friend. So Manniu talked to Li Qing vigorously, and Li Qing listened silently and listened carefully, because everything Manniu said was with Long Yi as the protagonist.
"Hey, that, Childe, can you come over for a moment?" Just as Long Yi was about to go in, a timid voice came from not far away.
Long Yi smiled inwardly. I really didn't expect that girl to have the courage to shout in front of him.
A few people turned around and saw that the girl Li Qing had rescued in Wangjiang Tower was looking at him bravely with a red face.
"Li Qing. What about you? Let's go over. Long Yi smiled and said to Li Qing.
Li Jing didn't have the slightest expression when he heard this, and he strode towards the girl. A happy smile appeared on the girl's face, but her smile quickly froze, because Li Qing immediately turned around and walked back after walking in front of her.
Long Yi suddenly cried and laughed, and asked, "Li Qing." What the hell are you doing? ”
"The young master told me to come over, and I have already passed." Li Su's answer made Long Yi stunned, daring to love this guy's heart is really as cold as his appearance. A big beauty is not moved at all.
Long Yi beckoned to a guard guarding the door, pointed to the pale girl and asked, "Do you know who this woman is?" ”
The guard immediately replied: "Second Young Master Hui, she is Kong Qi, the only daughter of Master Kong, the pen of the household department, and she is well-known in Tenglong City. ”
The household department is just a four-grade petty official, and in the place where the big officials in Tenglong City grab a lot of money, it is really not a name. The dragon nodded, this woman had no impression in his memory, seeing that she was only fifteen or sixteen years old, and he thought that two years ago he was still a young apple. It has only shown a little flavor in the past two years.
Ryuichi ignored her, turned and stepped into the mansion, locking the brave girl out of the door.
"Second brother, you are finally back, you have missed my eldest brother to death in the past two years." As soon as Long entered the hall, he saw a man in golden armor striding over, he said warm words in his mouth, but his eyes were not so friendly, this person was Ximen Yudi's eldest brother Ximen Tian, the deputy commander of the Dragon Legion, the most elite legion of the Dragon Empire.
Long Yi smiled, opened his hand to hug him, and suddenly felt that Ximentian's arms tightened, and he was tightly wrapped around him like an iron hoop.
"Second brother, don't think that you can get the position of head of the family when you come back, you can't take it away." Ximen Tian whispered in Long Yi's ear.
"It's not up to you and me to rob it or not, and I'm not interested in the position of the head of the family, if my father insists on passing it on to me, it's really troublesome." Long Yi chuckled, his body shook, and Ximen Tian was suddenly shocked to the point that his arms were numb, and he involuntarily let go of his hand.
Ximen Tian flashed a hint of surprise, followed by annoyance and anger, and his eyes looking at Long Yi also carried a hint of murderous aura.
"Father, father, hug." At this moment, a milky child's voice suddenly came from far and near.
Long looked sideways, and saw a pink little girl stumbling towards Ximentian, followed by a beautiful young woman, as soon as Long knew her, she was his sister-in-law, and wanted to give birth to a daughter in the two years he left home.
Ximentian's expression softened a little, and he took his daughter into his arms and kissed him twice.
"Sister-in-law, long time no see." Long Yi greeted the beautiful woman with a smile.
"Uncle is back, your eldest brother is always talking about you." The beautiful woman smiled softly, but it was full of charm.
Long Yi smiled, nagging me? I'm afraid I'm talking every day that I'm going to die early.
Ximentian's feelings for his daughter are obviously not so deep, he hugged it and put it down, in fact, it is no wonder that he always wants a son to stabilize his position in the Ximen family, but his wife always can't conceive, and he is very disappointed when he is pregnant with a daughter in his life.
Then why didn't Simon Tian marry two more side chambers to give birth to him? This point made Long Yi admire it very much, that is, his eldest brother was a rare dedication among the direct descendants of the Ximen family in the past dynasties, and he said that he would not marry a second woman again, maybe this is part of the reason why Ximen Huo was not good to Ximen Yu for him. Of course. Long Yi also suspected that it was not Ximen Tian's dedication, but that there was something in his wife's hands, so he could only obediently obey.
At this time, the little girl looked at Ryuichi curiously with big black eyes.
Long Yi is quite fond of children. Seeing that his niece was looking at him, he grimaced at her, causing her to giggle.
"Shuxian, call uncle." The beautiful woman smiled and said to her daughter.
"Uncle." Xiao Shuxian called out obediently.
Long Yi responded with a smile and said, "Shuxian, come over and let your uncle hug you." ”
Xiao Shuxian immediately ran over, and Long Yi picked her up, teasing her left and right, and liked this niece very much.
At this time, Nangong Xiangyun and her younger brother Nangong crossbow walked in. Seeing that Long Yi was teasing Ximen Shuxian, he stepped forward and snatched her from Long Yi's arms, and said to Xiao Shuxian: "Don't pay attention to this uncle." He's the big bad guy and came to play with his sister. ”
But Xiao Shuxian flattened her mouth and wanted to cry, she opened her small arms towards Ximenyu and shouted vigorously: "Uncle, I want uncle." ”
"Sister plays with you. Uncle is a bad guy, is it okay for my sister to buy you candy to eat? Nangong Xiangyun glared at Long Yi fiercely, and began to coax Xiao Shuxian in her arms.
"Don't. I want an uncle. Xiao Shuxian cried out loud, which made Nangong Xiangyun panic.
At this time, Long Yi's sister-in-law took over her daughter, and Xiao Shuxian stopped crying, but just stretched out her arms to Long Yi and wanted him to hug him.
The beautiful woman couldn't, so she could only hand her daughter to Long Yi and said, "Uncle, it seems that Xiao Shuxian likes you very much." ”
"Hmph, it's a little bit, I don't know, I still think Ximenyu is her father." Nangong Xiangyun muttered.
This muttering immediately made Ximentian's face turn blue. Just as he was about to do it, he saw Dongfang Wan and Mrs. Nangong walking in hand in hand.
Ximen Tian and his wife Liu immediately saluted respectfully.
"I heard Xiao Shuxian crying from afar, what's wrong?" Dongfang Wan said lightly.
Liu immediately told what had just happened.
Dongfang Wan laughed and said, "Yu'er has been a woman since she was a child, but I didn't expect such a young child to like him." Listening to her tone, she seemed quite proud.
Mrs. Nangong agreed, but she was disdainful in her heart, your kid's woman's fate was all obtained by force, if it weren't for that insistence, she wouldn't want her daughter to fall into the fire pit, but now that the emperor has spoken, there is no room for turning around in this matter.
Xiao Shuxian seemed to be quite afraid of Dongfang Wan, she quieted down as soon as she came, and she didn't even dare to look at Dongfang Wan, the grandmother, and obediently hid in Long Yi's arms.
In fact, it's not that Dongfang Wan makes a face to this little girl every day, but as the eldest lady of a traditional aristocratic family, she has a sense of power in her, and she is quite partial to her son, so she can't talk about being kind to Ximen Tian and his wife. In her opinion, Ximentian's ambition hindered her son, that is, she couldn't get along with her, and she couldn't look down on Xiao Shuxian. Children's geocentricity is very sensitive, and their reactions are also instinctive, so Xiao Shuxian will be afraid of Dongfang Wan.
"Mother, is the meal ready?" Long Yi asked.
"Alright, we'll start eating when your father comes back." Dongfang said with a smile.
After waiting for a while, Simon came back angrily, and in the same way, he didn't seem to like Xiao Shuxian's granddaughter, could it be that he was patriarchal? Long Yi thought to himself, but didn't he say that he was a next-generation parent? Grandpa and grandchildren should be very close.
A meal is eaten in a friendly and lively manner on the surface, but in fact it is not, and all of them have false masks on their faces.
After eating, Mrs. Nangong left with her children, and Ximentian and his wife and daughter also returned to their yard.
"Yu'er, come with me to the study." Simon stood up angrily and said majestically.
