"Patriarch, yesterday the family took over part of the Gallie family's property. I forgive me for not giving the rest to the family."
Xiao Ning said categorically, leaving no room for bargaining. As a middle school student, Xiao Ning has no intention of giving away all the achievements he has made. Moreover, this thing has been...
Xiao Zhan didn't expect Xiao Ning to say that. He was stunned for a moment, then when he realized what he was saying, he leaned forward with a look of displeasure.
As the patriarch of the Xiao family, he should speak the truth. In recent years, because his son was incompetent and had no successors, he has been challenged by the great elder and people from other houses many times. Now the grandson of the great elder is no longer obedient and asked him to Very annoyed.
"Ning'er, you are just a child. For you, cultivation is a top priority. Just leave the family property to the family to take care of it. I will pretend that I didn't hear what you just said, so don't say it again."
After Xiao Zhan finished speaking, the room became noisy.
"Xiao Ning, don't leave it to the family and take care of it yourself. Do you want to turn against the Xiao family?"
A twenty-year-old young man who had always been unknown in the Xiao family had an indignant look on his face.
"Xiao Ning, the patriarch is right. Cultivation is your first priority. Just leave the Jialie family's property to the family. Besides, leave it to you. You will take care of it. Do you know how much a pound of firewood, rice, oil and salt is?" "
A middle-aged man in his thirties or forties with a slight beard on his lips, Xiao Ning's uncle, he had always been close to the clan leader Xiao Zhan, and hated the lineage of the great elders. Seeing that Xiao Zhan's majesty was being challenged, he ridiculed Xiao Yan.
"No matter how powerful you are, you are still a junior. You must obey the words of the head of the Xiao family."
"Xiao Ning is too presumptuous"
…
There were more and more voices, whether they were elders or juniors, they all criticized Xiao Ning. Some looked angry, and some were heartbroken.
Only a few people remained calm, such as Xiao Mei, who was friends with Xiao Ning, such as Xiao Xun'er, who was as calm as water, such as Xiao Yan, who looked on with a cold face, and such as the drowsy elder who was unable to wake up.
"Everyone shut up!"
Xiao Zhan slammed the table, causing the whole room to fall into silence. In the Xiao family, the patriarch's effect on intimidating ordinary clan members is quite good.
The drowsy elder opened his eyes a little, glanced at Xiao Zhan, and continued to close them, pretending to sleep.
Xiao Ning, who has reached the Dou Ling level in cultivation and has a sharp ear and eyesight, was speechless when he saw his grandfather pretending to sleep. At this time, as a grandfather, even if he doesn't protect his calf, he should still say a few words of relief. Sleeping nonstop is nothing, it must have been discussed.
Thinking of this, Xiao Ning's heart brightened.
Xiao Zhan stood up, walked a few steps, looked at Xiao Ning, and said in a gentle tone: "This matter is settled. From now on, Xiao Ning will return to the Xiao family to continue practicing, and the treatment will be ranked first class. "
The implication is that from now on, the Xiao family will fully provide for the genius-level junior Xiao Ning, while other people, including his own son, will receive lower treatment.
The great elder's eyelids trembled again. Obviously, he already knew this.
The juniors, especially those with average qualifications, were all buzzing. The resources of the Xiao family were not rich to begin with, but now they are all biased towards Xiao Ning, and they will become even more mediocre.
However, they did not dare to speak out loud if they were dissatisfied when they saw that the clan leader's biological son was treated the same as them.
Xiao Zhan's sharp eyes swept across, and the juniors fell silent in unison.
Just when everyone thought that the matter was settled and nothing would happen, Xiao Ning took a step forward with a calm look on his face.
"Patriarch, I have sent half of the land deeds and deeds of the Jialie family to Miter Auction House for auction."
Xiao Zhan frowned and tried his best to suppress his anger.
"Why do you do this? You really need the money?"
Xiao Ning nodded, turned around, and looked out along the door with a look of yearning on his face.
"Someone told me that the Dou Qi Continent is vast, with many races and strange fighting skills. There are all kinds of capable people and strangers like the sand of the river. There are countless strong men who divide themselves into one side. All kinds of strange fires are waiting for her master. I want to go and see it. Look, this requires a lot of gold coins.”
Xiao Ning's sufficient reason immediately extinguished Xiao Zhan's anger. The most outstanding young man of the young generation wants to go out and gain experience. This is a good thing. What else can he say?
The juniors all looked at Xiao Ning with complicated eyes. A person of their own age was about to go out for training. Although it would no longer occupy their resources, the feeling of emptiness filled their hearts.
Is the outside world really wonderful? Similar questions appear in every junior's mind.
As the chosen one to configure the old man, Xiao Yan felt the same way. He had just recovered his cultivation and wanted to compete with Xiao Ning. Unexpectedly, Xiao Ning already looked down on this three-acre land of Wutan City. .
"Ning'er, have you decided?"
The great elder opened his cloudy eyes with solemn gaze.
When Xiao Ning heard this, he looked at his grandpa with a solemn expression and thought to himself that you finally woke up. My grandson thought you would always sleep until tomorrow.
"Grandpa, I have decided to leave in three days."
Xiao Ning told the exact date, and the crowd immediately let out a few sighs of relief. For some people, the sooner Xiao Ning leaves, the better.
"Everyone, please go out. I, the clan leader, Ning'er, have something to talk about."
The great elder scanned everyone and said calmly.
The reality that the great elder's power was greater than that of the clan leader was revealed, and with a burst of noise, the room became empty.
There are only three people left.
"Xiao Zhan, your eldest son and second son have been outside for a long time. Through letters, you should have a certain understanding of the outside world. How is the situation outside?"
The great elder looked at Xiao Zhan seriously. It was about his grandson's life and death, so he had to be cautious.
Xiao Zhan shook his head, with a cautious look on his face.
"They haven't written for a long time. I don't know much about the situation outside. According to their last few letters, the outside is very chaotic and full of dangers, especially the snake tribe, and there are frequent wars with the empire. To be honest, I don't recommend Ning'er. Leaving so early is because Ning'er's cultivation is very high and surpasses many people, but Ning'er is too young and has no survival experience, which is enough to kill him."
The elder frowned when he heard this. He was also wandering outside. No, he had experienced it and knew the dangers of the human heart. Many geniuses were invincible in their hometown. Once they left the wings of the family, they were not prepared for others. He ended up dying in a foreign land.
In order to prevent the white-haired person from giving away the black-haired person, the elder said to Xiao Ning sternly: "Grandpa doesn't want to lose any more relatives. Let's go out in a few years."
Xiao Ning had already made up his mind to leave, but he was shaken by a few words from the clan leader and grandfather, and immediately shook his head.
"I have to go. If you want to stop me, I can only leave by force. Please forgive me."
The elder blew his beard and glared, pretending to beat Xiao Ning.
