Tang Lian said coldly: "Then you have someone drive down to pick me up now."
The security guard was in trouble again: "We don't have the authority to hail a car. Only the owner's family does. Miss Lian should do it herself."
That's true, but this rule has been changed secretly for a long time. Anyone who calls can call the car off. It's just not a strict rule. Now it's being used as a shield, which is obviously deliberately targeted.
Tang Lian was about to say something to scold her when she heard someone calling her from behind.
"Aunt Lian?"
The visitor had wavy hair like seaweed, exquisite makeup, and was wearing a champagne gold dress. His eyelashes were blinking: "Have you finished your studies? What a coincidence, I didn't expect to meet you in my old house."
The security guard greeted her: "Miss Tian, you are here."
Tang Mitian gave a perfunctory "hmm" and did not intend to greet Tang Lian. She walked around her and casually ordered: "Call me a car."
The security guard immediately nodded and picked up the walkie-talkie to send a message.
Zhang Ningzhi's anger that had just dissipated surged up again. Since it was difficult to get angry in the Tang family, he could only glare at the security guard.
The security guard didn't feel at all that he had done anything wrong, so he walked up to Tang Mitian and opened the car door for her diligently.
"Ah, Aunt Lian." Tang Mitian seemed to have just remembered something, and turned around and asked, "I didn't steal your car, did I? Don't blame me, I went up in a hurry, Chan Ma has been waiting for me for a long time, She is your sister, I can't keep her waiting."
The car sped away and disappeared, leaving the three of them standing there.
Tang Lian's status in the clan has been far lower than before since she was demoted, but she is still a bloodline of the master's family. How has she ever been treated with such an aboveboard distinction? Not to mention a side branch that succumbs to bad habits, even the security guard can climb on top of her and dominate her. Isn't this pure humiliation?
"forget it."
When the tension was at stake, Shi Xin waved his hand nonchalantly: "Isn't it just mountain climbing? Just think of it as exercise."
Zhang Ningzhi sighed and pulled up the suitcase resignedly: "I have no problem, but this mountain is long, can you do it?"
Tang Lian looked at the two of them, and suddenly felt a warm current rushing through her heart. Her eyes showed shame and gratitude, and she nodded: "I can do it, but it's all thanks to you."
The air in the mountain was very good, and the three of them didn't feel much discomfort while walking. However, during the dinner at the old house today, cars passed by every once in a while. They were all collateral branches of the clan, and from time to time someone would stop the car. Saying a few sarcastic words really ruins the scenery.
"Are you, the Tang family, really unabashed?" Zhang Ningzhi was almost immune to the taunts he heard along the way. "You are the master's family after all. Aren't they breaking the rules? You, the Tang family, have followed it for generations. It’s so bold that they dare to do this despite the rules.”
"It's just adding insult to injury." Tang Lian smiled bitterly, "It should be the confidence given to them by Madam Zhu. Madam Zhu is very ambitious and has not treated me well since she was a child. She hates me for no reason and will naturally torture me when she gets the chance. "
Zhang Ningzhi felt worthless for her and shook her head repeatedly: "I think it would be better for you to be born in our Zhang family. At least you can make a living relying solely on your skills."
The two chatted for a while. Seeing that Shi Xin remained silent, they asked her what she was thinking.
"Oh... I got distracted." Shi Xin thought of the people he met on the road, "Why did Tang Mitian at the foot of the mountain call you aunt? She looks older than you, what generation is she from?"
Tang Lian didn't expect that she would be interested in this, and then she thought of something and smiled scornfully: "There is an unwritten rule in the clan. The typesetting generation is only ranked among the main family. The Tang family values heirs, so whoever the side branches want to please, Just choose the names of your children according to the arranged characters."
"No wonder that person is called 'Chan Mama', she sounds like her goddaughter."
Shi Xin changed the topic: "Your old house does not allow evil spirits to appear, right?"
Tang Lian: "Yeah."
Shi Xin pointed to the top of the mountain: "But why do I feel that there is a strong evil spirit there?"
"Where?" Zhang Ningzhi concentrated on feeling that practicing martial arts could make her body more harmonious with the world and make her more aware of evil spirits. But even so, she found nothing. "It's nothing."
Tang Lian had only learned a few self-defense techniques, but could not achieve the state of harmony between man and nature. She had a very poor sense of evil spirits, so she simply did not use any techniques.
Shi Xin has an evil soul, and Xuan Mao is gifted with the ability to sense evil spirits. She can catch even the smallest evil spirits, and as she reaches the top, her perception of evil spirits becomes stronger and stronger.
"Yes," she said firmly, "there are still two groups."
"Okay, these rules are all used to restrain themselves!"
Zhang Ningzhi was about to summon the God of War to possess him and rush up the mountain, but was stopped by Shi Xin.
"Don't be impulsive, it will be there soon."
The old house is built on the hillside. It is a combination of Chinese and Western architecture. As soon as the three of them entered, they were greeted by a spacious and clean hall. Many people were busy with the details of the dinner. There were stairs on both sides to go upstairs, and there was also a main staircase in the middle. I wanted to ask the butler to arrange it. I asked the servants where the housekeeper was, but they all said they didn't know.
Yes, I'm used to this attitude.
Tang Lian took the two of them back to her house. Unsurprisingly, no one cleaned it, and there was a layer of dust on it.
The three of them sighed and went downstairs without saying a word to grab the servant's rag and broom to clean up.
"I can't help you."
Tang Lian was tall, 174cm tall. She stood on tiptoes and wiped the dust on the top of the cabinet. While wiping, she said, "We are here on behalf of Luo City. If I were not useless in the Tang family, I would not have caused you to suffer this." Bully."
"What's this?" Zhang Ningzhi used a feather duster to create cobwebs in the corner, "If you ask me, you Tang family are all spoiled and spoiled. I do this every day in the martial arts gym. It's better than being sent to detoxify from Internet addiction. The school will suffer a terrible fate!”
Tang Lian couldn't help laughing: "I didn't know you had such a sense of humor before."
Zhang Ningzhi snorted: "Because I'm telling the truth, and the truth is always the funniest."
Shi Xin is still silent, and silence is Cambridge tonight.
The room was so big that it took half an hour to clean. After half an hour, the three of them huddled together to wash their hands and discussed going upstairs to see what the evil spirit was emanating from.
"It's just above." Shi Xin pointed to the ceiling above his head, "It's in the room above."
Zhang Ningzhi: "Who lives there?"
Tang Lian: "Tang Zhihua, the daughter of the second grandpa's second son, is of the same generation as me. I have to call her Sister Hua."
Zhang Ningzhi: "Why is there a person named Zhi here? The name is too strange."
Tang Lian: "No, any person named with three characters in the head of the Tang family means that the person's parents do not plan to have another child. Otherwise, the person's name can only be named with two characters, which will be convenient for the collateral branches to come over. I'm so flattered by my generation."
Zhang Ningzhi was curious: "Then why do you have two children and don't have any brothers or sisters?"
Tang Lian lowered her head: "I'm more complicated. I'm not within the jurisdiction of this set of rules."
