Don’t Show the Son

   Chapter 122 Brother-in-law

  Li Bozhang knew that Lin Xiu was joking.

   How can the throne be so good, even the emperor can't control this matter.

  Prince is the crown prince, backed by the most powerful first-class duke family in Daxia, and the next emperor of Daxia is probably him.

   The other 20% possibility is with King Qi.

   Even if the prince died suddenly, and King Qi died, these two families would probably send other young women from the family into the palace, so that the father and the emperor could continue to have children, and it would not be his turn anyway.

  Lin Xiu is not joking.

  Supreme Realm is just nine awakenings of supernatural abilities, is it difficult?

   If he really only awakened the magic of ice, it would be very difficult.

   With his basic talent, it would take about five or six hundred years if he wanted to cultivate step by step to the supreme realm.

  Be conservative, let’s do it for six hundred years.

   He is now six times the basic practice speed, which is one hundred years.

   If you were an ordinary person, you might not be able to live at this time.

   But one of Lin Xiu's abilities is healing. Under normal circumstances, it is more than enough to live to be over a hundred years old.

   However, just because he can survive does not mean that Li Bozhang can survive.

   Step back 10,000 steps, even if Li Bozhang could live, he was already 120 years old at that time, even if he married 100 concubines, he would not be able to use it.

   Six times the speed of cultivation is not Lin Xiu's limit.

   When he breaks through to the upper realm of the profound rank, the number of his abilities will increase by at least four.

   If he can copy four Heavenly Rank abilities, it is ten times the speed of cultivation.

  600 divided by ten, he can practice to the supreme state in only 60 years.

   At that time, Li Bozhang was eighty years old—it seemed that he still didn’t need it.

   But if he has twenty useful abilities, this time will be shortened to thirty years.

   Thirty, twenty years.

   If there are sixty, it will only take ten years.

   Of course, there are not so many Heavenly Rank abilities, even if they are, he can get them, but there are only twenty-four hours a day, and he doesn't have that much time to practice.

   It seems that even if Lin Xiuneng made Li Bozhang emperor in his lifetime, his body might not allow him to have fun anymore.

  Lin Xiu couldn't help mourning for him.

  …

After returning to the Lin Mansion, Lin Xiu told Uncle Ping'an and his wife about the old house. Zhou Yun smiled and said, "Xiu'er has grown up. It is also for the Lin family to accumulate virtue, I hope that after you and Lingjun get married, you can give us a grandson or granddaughter sooner..."

   Lin Xiu fled, he was not even ready to get married, let alone have children.

   He really likes the process of having children.

   He used to sing every night. In the past six months, although there were no women around him, he was still interested in the practice, but he didn't think it was anything.

   It's all Akko's fault.

  What are the children of the rivers and lakes informal, Lin Xiu is a normal man, a man with normal physiological needs, unless there is a hidden illness, if a normal man sees such a scene, if he sees that kind of scene, if there is no reaction, instead, there is a problem.

   Her body opened the Pandora's Box in Lin Xiu's heart, and it couldn't be closed again.

  Lin Xiu these two days, as long as he sleeps, he must dream.

   And every time he dreamed, he would dream of a big white moon, or a rabbit that was all white and jumping around.

   The culprit responsible for all this has never been seen again.

Even if    doesn't show up, Lin Xiu from the province started thinking about her after seeing her.

   Two days passed quickly, today is New Year's Eve.

   After tonight, it is a new year.

Tonight's royal capital is naturally lively, with countless fireworks blooming in the night sky, reflecting the night sky like daytime. Of course, almost all the fireworks bloom in the East City. Most of the people can have one more fireworks on the dinner table tonight. Meat dishes are already a New Year's Eve.

  The food in the Lin Mansion was very rich tonight. The masters sat at one table, and the servants sat at two tables. Even the family dog ​​had five bowls and dishes in front of him. There were four dishes and one soup. There were fish and meat.

   For the past ten years, Lin Xiu has spent the New Year's Eve alone.

  Although there is no Spring Festival Gala in this world, it is the most enjoyable year for Lin Xiu. He rarely drinks alcohol on weekdays. Tonight, he was also drunk for the first time ever.

   When he woke up from the bed, it was already bright.

He was woken up by the little maid at home. Uncle Ping An and his wife knew that Lin Xiu practiced hard. Even if he slept very late on weekdays, they would not call him, but today is different. On the morning of the first day of the new year, we have to eat dumplings. And one person in the family can not be less, which means reunion.

   After eating dumplings, there are a series of rituals and customs.

   Ancestor worship is also one of the important things to do on the first day of the new year.

   This is especially important for the powerful.

   Any powerful family in Daxia can have today's glory, and it is inseparable from the blood inheritance of their ancestors, so they respect and cherish their ancestors very much. Even the royal family will conduct large-scale ancestor worship activities today.

  Lin Xiu followed his parents and went to the cemetery outside the city to worship the ancestors of the Lin family.

  Lin Xiu didn't go with them. He followed the old beggar and the businessman to another grave.

   To his surprise, there were several figures in front of Chen Yu's grave.

   Several young girls knelt in front of her grave, weeping, and the old lady of Pinfang Pavilion was also there, which made Lin Xiu a little surprised.

   It turns out that there are so many people who remember her.

  The old lady saw Lin Xiu, hurried over and said, "Young Master, you're here too..."

Seeing Lin Xiu looking at the girls, the old man explained: "Young master doesn't know anything, Haitang... No, when Ayu was still there, when he saw some girls who were sold into brothels, he would spend money to buy them. She has been raising them, otherwise, she should have been redeemed long ago..."

  Lin Xiu looked at the little girls. Their age ranged from eight or nine years old to fifteen or sixteen years old. She was sold into a brothel, almost the same age.

  Perhaps it was Chen Yu who saw herself in them.

   She doesn't want these children to repeat her mistakes.

  Lin Xiu asked, "What are they going to do in the future?"

  The old lady said: "I gave them the money she left behind and let them make a living on their own. They are in the brothel, although they can support themselves, but in that case, Ayu's hard work will be in vain..."

  Lin Xiu thought for a while and said, "Let them come with me."

  Although the Lin family no longer needs maids, they can also let them work in Ningxiangzhai, which is better than letting them make a living on their own. A few little girls, how can they make a living, without background and backing, they can hardly even protect themselves.

  The old lady was overjoyed when she heard the words and said, "This is the best way..."

   She walked over quickly and said a few words to a few little girls, who got up from the ground and stood beside Lin Xiu obediently.

   When they were about to leave, another figure came from afar.

   It was a man with a plain appearance and a short stature. He looked thin and frail. He walked past Lin Xiu and the others and stood in a daze in front of Chen Yu's grave.

  The old lady sighed and said, "When Ayu used to stand at the door to greet guests, he always peeked from a distance. I still think that after Ayu redeemed himself, it would be good to have someone to live an ordinary life with her, hey..."

  Lin Xiu looked at the tombstone, even if she was just a brothel, there were people who loved her and respected her.

   They are humble, but they also have relatives, friends, and people who care about them.

  They are real people, but there are always people who don't treat them as human beings.

   He placed a bunch of plum blossoms in front of Chen Yu's grave and whispered, "It will change..."

   After a while, Lin Xiu retracted her thoughts and looked at the five little girls beside her.

  Chen Yu took good care of them during her lifetime, and Lin Xiu will take her place in the future.

  How to arrange them, he needs to find Xue Ning'er.

   Ningxiangzhai's business, each of them has a very clear division of labor.

  Lin Xiu provided technology, Li Bozhang provided manpower and material resources, Xue Ninger managed the business, and the imperial concubine waited to collect the money.

   Xue Ning'er is in charge of everything in the shop.

   After returning to the capital, Lin Xiu came to the gate of Xue Mansion and asked the concierge to report on his behalf.

   After a while, a figure hurried out of Xue's residence.

  On the first day of the new year, Xue Ninger was wearing a new dress, and she was also very beautiful. When a few girls saw such a beautiful sister, their eyes were stunned.

Lin Xiu explained the purpose of her visit to her, Xue Ning'er looked at the little girls and said with a smile, "Don't worry, they will be handed over to me, just because our shop is short of staff, I also asked the maids in the house to help in the shop, so I will first let them live in my house..."

   Xue Ning'er's voice just fell, and there was a mess of footsteps and a slightly noisy voice from inside the Xue mansion.

   "What, someone is looking for our Ning'er?"

   "Or a handsome boy?"

   "Did you say which one is it?"

   "I'll see, I'll see..."

   Soon, more than a dozen men ran out of the mansion, looking at Lin Xiu with scrutiny eyes, and then nodded and commented.

   "He looks really handsome."

   "It's just a little thinner."

   "It's okay to be thin, just eat more food."

   Several people even walked up to Lin Xiu and spoke one after another.

   "Which family are you from?"

   "How old are you this year?"

   "What supernatural ability was awakened?"

   "What level has your martial arts practice reached?"

  …

   These people asked the usual way of checking household registration, and Lin Xiu was a little confused.

  Xue Ning'er stomped her feet and said angrily: "Fourth brother, fifth brother, seventh brother and eleventh brother, what are you doing, you are not allowed to be rude to my friends!"

   There are more than a dozen men in the Xue family, but there is only one girl. Of course, as a big brother, she has to worry about her lifelong affairs.

   Before she was surrounded by countless men, they would not be so curious.

   But not long ago, she suddenly changed her temperament. Not only did she reject everyone's pursuit, but she also became more interested in her practice. She went to the Martial Arts Academy every day to practice, and recently she co-founded a shop...

   These kinds of things reveal weirdness.

Especially since she had rejected the pursuit of the two princes of the state, the former suitors wanted to see her, but she didn't see anyone. As soon as I heard that someone was looking for her, she didn't even bother to eat lunch, so she ran out. , how can they not be surprised?

  Xue Ning'er glared at them and said viciously: "You guys go back, or I'll be angry!"

   A dozen people heard the words and ran back immediately.

   made Ning’er angry. Although she wouldn’t do anything to them, Father’s stick is not so pleasant.

   At this time, in front of another mansion not far from Xue's house.

  A fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy looked at the door of Xue's house and asked, "Second sister, who is that little white face, who seems to have a good relationship with that pretty sister of Xue's house."

   Zhao Lingyin had a sullen face, tapped him on the head, and said, "What little white face, that's your brother-in-law!"

The    boy was stunned for a moment, then said in surprise: "Second sister, do you like that little white face!"
