In the Immortal Family, there are always some people who are well-born and have failed in cultivation. They usually like to show off their extravagance when they have nothing to do. Carpets and curtains are not uncommon. On the contrary, those with high cultivation level don't care much about these, and usually just come and go...
This Young Master Ling actually behaves like this? It’s really unexpected!
In the crowd, a young master waved his fan and said, "Have you not heard about what happened in Fengwucheng? At that time, Master Ling and the seventh young master of the Mo family in Yongzhou collided with each other. Without saying a word, he made them turn around. How can I be such an easy talker to apologize?"
Not many people knew about this matter. After all, it was a small matter and Ling Bufei didn't reveal his identity, so only a few recognized him and treated it as gossip behind his back.
After hearing what he said, a group of poor and bored children from aristocratic families quickly asked about the cause and effect, so the young master started talking nonsense.
At the edge of the pier, Manager Xu secretly complained in his heart.
The Ling family is so big that if you want carpets and curtains, you can get them just by asking. But if the arrangements are made for the eldest son, what about the sect master who arrived not long ago? Normally, a big shot like the sect master would not care about such a trivial matter, but as a servant, he was not qualified to care about it for his superiors. As long as something is not done well, it will be a ready excuse when you want to tease him.
"Baili guards, don't be anxious. The eldest son is still in a while. The younger one will go and report..."
"There's only half an hour left, how can we have time to report now?" Baili Xu interrupted him coldly, as if he didn't care about him, "That's all, the young master rarely returns home, so you don't take him seriously. It’s human nature, let’s do it ourselves!”
After saying that, he waved behind him, and a group of waiters came down from the big ship. Those who spread carpets spread carpets, and those who set up curtains set up curtains.
The two large boats that claimed to be cleaning the river also moved and sprinkled something unknown along both sides of the waterway, and soon the water surface turned green.
Manager Xu didn't dare to make his own decision, so he quickly ordered someone to report it.
The person in charge of welcoming guests in the Ling family is Ling Yongnian, the eldest son of Mrs. Ling.
At this time, he was accompanying guests. He heard the servant's report and frowned: "This kid hasn't been home for more than 20 years. He makes trouble when he comes back. Does he still take our ancestors seriously? His second uncle is the superior." The masters of the three sects and the dignified monks who transformed into gods, how does he compare?!"
It was hard for the servant to answer this, so he smiled and said, "Many guests are watching at the pier. Steward Xu doesn't dare to be a master, for fear of losing the family's face, so he came here to ask for instructions from the eldest master."
Ling Yongnian was dissatisfied: "I have no parental upbringing, and my etiquette is really bad. As a junior, I haven't been home for many years, so I should have apologized on my own. It would be better for him to put on such a big show and attract everyone to see it. If we don't go to welcome him, Aren’t you going to step down?”
"What the eldest master said is true, but the eldest son's surname is Ling..."
Ling Yongnian felt a heavy breath in his chest, and his impression of this grandnephew he had never met was even worse. Do you want to use force to force him to greet you in person? snort! Who said he would just greet him when he went there? As an elder, when you see your younger generation doing something wrong, it is natural for you to come forward and advise them.
At this time, a group of boys and girls ran over from behind, shouting: "Quick, quick, quick, right at the pier..."
Ling Yongnian shouted loudly: "Weijun!"
The children were startled and stopped in a hurry. The young man in the lead shouted: "Grandpa, grandpa..."
Ling Yongnian glanced over sternly: "What are you doing? There are many guests at home, and you are the master of the house. What do you look like?"
The children were so scolded by him that they shrank their heads like quails. Ling Weijun replied cautiously: "I heard that someone at the dock is performing the art of rejuvenating dead wood with spring. Let's go and see it."
He spoke cleverly, but someone next to him made trouble. A girl about the same age as him walked out of the moon cave door and said with a smile: "Grandpa, they knew that eldest brother was here and wanted to see the excitement - I also wanted to see it. We have met the second uncle, the sect leader, but we didn't know about eldest brother." How about Young Sect Leader?"
Seeing her, Ling Yongnian's expression softened and he said: "Weifang! You have to be more cautious if you want to see her. If you rush over like this, others will think that our Ling family doesn't understand etiquette - that's all, you can come with me, no. Looking around and whispering to each other.”
The children were overjoyed and responded one after another.
Ling Weifang followed her grandfather closely and took the lead out of the yard. She turned back and stuck out her tongue at her brother.
Ling Weijun curled his lips. Isn't it just that he has better qualifications and can practice faster than him? Grandfather is too partial!
——
On the edge of the pier, more and more people were watching the excitement, and the guests gathered together and whispered.
"Did you hear what I said just now? This guard said that the Ling family does not take Master Ling seriously..."
"Hey, look at their standards for welcoming Sect Master Ling. It's too far off. It's no wonder that the Young Sect Master is unhappy. You said he's a junior, so it's okay to send fewer people. There's not even one with the surname Ling. What's this called?"
"Yes, why don't you just bully someone's parents into dying early? Speaking of it, the ancestors of the Ling family were enthroned back then, and a new generation of incarnations had not yet appeared. It was Ling Xianjun who made a timely breakthrough and brought the Ling family back to the top aristocratic family. Now that he is gone, the Ling family's neglect of his descendants will inevitably make people feel cold."
"Hush! Don't mention Ling Xianjun. His charges have not been cleared yet..."
"Come on, come on! Master Ling is here!"
"The Ling family dare not really neglect it!"
"After all, he is the young sect leader..."
Ling Yongnian actually came out to question him, but Baili Xu didn't give him a chance at all. He raised his hand as soon as he saw someone.
The waiters worked together, and saw lotus buds sprouting in the water, lotuses blooming, birds flying in the air, bees and butterflies leading the way.
The art of turning dead trees into spring is already a rare thing, not to mention the addition of birds, bees and butterflies. It was also the first time for all the immortals to see it, and they rushed to see it.
Suddenly there was a cry from the sky, and everyone looked over and saw two phoenix-feathered phoenixes emerging from the river mist and flying gracefully towards them.
Afterwards, two large ships cleared the way, and a fleet of ships approached slowly, as if they were sailing out of the clouds and mist of the fairy mountain.
"Welcome Young Sect Leader!" Baili Xu shouted.
The boatmen and waiters who arrived a step ahead bowed and saluted, and solemnly responded: "Welcome to the Young Sect Master!"
Manager Xu was panicking when he was suddenly struck by Baili Xu's stern look, and he instinctively shouted: "Welcome to the eldest son!"
As soon as he shouted, the other servants naturally followed him and shouted: "Welcome to the eldest son!"
Ling Yongnian was stunned and couldn't say any more words of rebuke——
Now that the situation has been established, if he continues to do so, it will not only be a disappointment, but also a slap in the face.
Under the spotlight, the largest ship finally docked.
Flowers greeted the guests, a red carpet paved the way, and a young gentleman was escorted off the ship.
His handsome appearance and elegant demeanor are truly unique in his life. The moment they saw him, everyone couldn't help but say something in their minds, no wonder there is such a grand pomp. Only such a grand scene can be worthy of such a young master.
Happy Dragon Boat Festival everyone. I had brunch today. The update is late. I will try my best to update it tomorrow.
