Miao Linglong was frightened by Miao Feng's expression, but she still stammered: "No one taught me, I did it myself!"
"You are so stubborn!" Miao Feng was really angry and slapped his sister.
"Stop!" Before Miao Feng's slap fell, a young woman walked out of the Miao family yard. She was not particularly beautiful, but she had the aura of a family member. When she stood there, she seemed to be able to calm her down. scene.
"Sister-in-law!" Miao Linglong quickly hid behind the woman.
Miao Feng's expression not only did not soften, but became even more ugly: "Did you ask Linglong to come over and cause mischief?"
The other party said slowly: "The master of the house is waiting for you inside. Let's go in first."
Miao Feng immediately said angrily: "You go back and ask people to come out to greet the guests. The guests have already arrived at the door. Are they all lame or paralyzed? Don't you even know how to treat guests?"
"Who are they? Why..." Miao Linglong was stopped by the woman before she could finish her words. The other woman gave a slight salute and said: "I'm here..."
Before the woman said who she was, Miao Feng said first, "You are not a member of the Miao family yet, so there is no need for you to come out to greet her. Linglong, you go back and call for someone."
The woman's face turned red and white, and she was speechless for a moment, but Miao Linglong became angry: "Brother, how could you do this to your sister-in-law? Just two outsiders..."
"Go back!" Miao Feng was really angry now. Miao Linglong was so frightened that she cried out, turned around and ran towards the Miao family compound, and the woman quickly chased after him.
The Ninth Prince unfolded his fan and said, "Brother Miao, are we afraid that our coming here will affect your relationship as husband and wife?"
"She is not my wife yet!" Miao Feng said: "Her name is Ji Mingyue, she is the daughter-in-law my grandma chose for me, and she has not yet married. It makes you two laugh."
The Ninth Prince had already shown his dissatisfaction, and Ye Sanqi's face naturally didn't look good either.
Ye Sanqi, the Ninth Prince, was a guest that Miao Feng personally invited back on behalf of the Miao family. Miao Linglong used a magic array to block Ye Sanqi, which could be said to be a child's nonsense. Not even a single servant from the Miao family came out to greet him, which was a great disrespect.
This kind of not taking the guests seriously, even now, is a slap in the face of the guests, not to mention the era when etiquette was so particular that it was almost harsh?
What's more, at that time, when you were a guest in a wealthy family, unless the people who came were all women, otherwise, no matter whether the guest came by invitation or came on his own initiative, as long as there was a man in charge of the house, women would not be allowed to come out to greet him. guest. If something like this happens in Abacus City, someone is guaranteed to say: When people come, women come out to greet guests. What kind of place are they?
It is reasonable for Miao Feng to be embarrassed!
After a while, I saw a man who looked like a butler and a few servants running out of the Miao family courtyard: "Young Master..."
"Go back!" Miao Feng said angrily: "I invited two young masters from the Qi family. What the hell are you doing here?"
The housekeeper who had just called "Master" quickly stepped back. After a while, someone spread the red felt to the door and opened the middle door of the courtyard.
Just as Miao Feng was about to speak, Ye Sanqi whispered: "That's enough etiquette, don't worry too much!"
In ancient times, wealthy families, especially those with high-ranking officials, would have a private door on the side of the main door. Normally, the door is closed, and servants and family members all use the private door. Master, when your wife goes out, she uses the main door, but the door is not fully open. Only when distinguished guests arrive will the door be opened to welcome them.
However, opening the middle door wide is not the highest etiquette. The highest welcome etiquette should be "opening the four doors wide", that is, the three main doors on the left and right, plus the living room door, must all be opened.
After all, the way the Miao family welcomed Ye Sanqi was a little less interesting.
Ye Sanqi was originally trying to persuade Miao Feng to calm down, but he didn't expect what he said to be heard by the Miao family who came out to greet them. Someone said angrily: "To welcome two pseudo-grandmasters, do you still need to use the grand ceremony to welcome a grandmaster?"
When I heard this, I immediately became furious: "Who said my master is a false master?"
A man about the same age as Miao Feng, wearing a purple mandarin jacket, laughed and said, "Ask your master, is he a grandmaster?"
At that time, I didn’t know that Grandmaster was not a simple title.
In many novels nowadays, the master is regarded as a level of cultivation. In fact, the master is not a rank, but a respected position.
Only those who have created a world of their own in terms of cultivation, and have established a sect, are qualified to be called a master. Even if a person has a heavenly cultivation, but cannot create his own unique skills, he cannot be called a master. After creating his own unique skill, he failed to teach outstanding disciples, make the sect famous and spread its branches, and he could not be called a master.
Ye Sanqi and Ninth Prince only completed the first step of creating their own unique skills as a master. Although they were awarded the title of Young Grandmaster by Senior Qi Sect, if we really talk about it in detail, they are really fake masters.
However, as long as people in the world don't have their heads kicked by donkeys, they will never question whether they are masters in front of anyone. Everyone carries the sedan chair, which is the mainstream of life and work in the world. If there is nothing to do, it is to cause trouble, either because of lack of support or deliberately looking for trouble.
The person who spoke was obviously looking for trouble!
Miao Feng turned around and slapped the man in the face. He knocked the man to the ground on the spot. Miao Feng threw his hands and said, "This is the Miao family. Do you have the right to speak?"
"Ming Fei!" Ji Mingyue helped the beaten man up and glared at Miao Feng: "Miao Feng, how can you beat someone? This is my brother."
Miao Feng ignored Ji Mingyue, but looked gloomily at the Miao elder who came out to greet the guests: "Seventh Elder, let me ask you, is the surname of this mansion now Miao or Ji?"
Miao Feng was obviously really angry. The seventh elder said awkwardly: "Young Master, we should go in and talk about this matter! The second elder, I am not allowed to interfere in matters that I am solely responsible for."
Miao Feng snorted coldly and walked towards the Miao family mansion.
Ye Sanqi and the Ninth Prince stood motionless. Miao Feng was dealing with internal matters within the family, and the two of them were inconvenient and unwilling to interfere.
I can probably understand what Ye Sanqi means. As the saying goes: It is difficult for an upright official to deal with household affairs. If you get involved in this kind of thing, there is a high probability that you will become a different person inside and outside.
Besides, the people who really invited Ye Sanqi and Ninth Prince to come over should be the Miao family, not Miao Feng. The Miao family had no intention of letting Ye Sanqi and others interfere with the secrets of the ancestor's tomb, and they had no reason to intervene forcefully.
Ye Sanqi was able to stand here and wait for Miao Feng to come out for the sake of friendship. Otherwise, with their tempers, they should have walked away long ago.
