Don’t Show the Son

  Chapter 51 Night Banquet

  After returning to Lin Mansion, Lin Xiu shut herself in the room and sat at the table alone, silent for a long time.

  First-class Hou Mansion, for the current Lin Family, it is too large to provoke.

   confronting them is no different than hitting a rock with a pebble.

  Not long ago, Lin Xiu was able to protect himself with the errand of making ice from the imperial palace, but now, he doesn’t even have the last thing to rely on.

Fortunately, even if the Lin family has fallen, they are still in power. Even Yong Pinghou dare not blatantly act on him. It can be seen from Qin Cong, Tianxianglou, and Wang Wei that they are doing things on their own face. Still very jealous, Lin Xiu only needs to beware of their small movements in secret.

  After figuring this out, Lin Xiu stopped worrying.

  The enemies hiding in the dark are the most terrifying. Now that they have figured out their identities, he can slowly look for opportunities and find opportunities to kill them.

  The next day, after breakfast, Lin Xiu took Sun Dali and Rhubarb out of the Lin Mansion.

  Lin Xiu did not tell Mr. and Mrs. Ping Ping about his calculations by the Yongping Houfu, because even if he told them, it would only aggravate their worries.

  Lin Xiu has the confidence to handle the matter.

  And he already had a complete plan in his mind.

  The most important thing right now is Xue Ning’er’s birthday.

  Xue Ning'er's ability is to fly. Lin Xiuzhi will definitely get this ability.

It’s not just to fulfill his childhood dream of flying to the sky. The ability to fly is one of the more special abilities in many different arts. Before the fifth awakening, this ability manifests itself in the ability to ignore gravity and make oneself volley. flight.

  But after the fifth awakening, this ability will undergo a qualitative change.

  Specifically, it will change from suspending oneself to suspending everything, that is, from “flying” to “controlling objects”.

  These are two completely different abilities. If Xue Ning'er can awaken her own abilities five times, her ability will evolve from the "flight" of the mysterious order to the "control" of the heavenly order.

  Flying is only a profound level ability, but control is a heavenly level.

  At that time, she will not only make herself fly, but also make others fly.

  Although people in this world do not have the concept of "gravity", they obviously have understood the horror of this ability, otherwise they would not be classified as a heavenly rank.

It happened that Lingyin was not there. During this month, he had to work hard to practice for the second awakening, and then get Xue Ning'er's abilities as soon as possible, otherwise, when Lingyin came back, she would drain all his energy every day. , He just can't do anything.

  In order to quickly increase the relationship with Xue Ning'er, at this birthday party, Lin Xiu put a lot of thought into the presents she was about to give her.

  ……

That night.

  The sky has completely dimmed, and the entire king is shrouded in night. The poor family who has no money to light candles have long been resting, but Xue Guogong's mansion is still brightly lit.

  A horse-drawn carriage and sedan chair stopped on the streets on both sides of Xue Mansion, like a long dragon, stopping from the street to the end of the street, it was not spectacular.

  Today is the eighteenth birthday of Xue Guogong’s granddaughter Xue Ning’er. The pomp of the Guogong Mansion is even older than the 80th birthday of the elders of some big families.

  Tonight, the people who came to Xue's Mansion were all big figures with names and surnames. On weekdays, most people need to look up to some small powers, and they don’t even have the qualifications to participate in tonight's banquet.

Ding Xingwang is a member of Xue Guogong’s residence. In the third generation, there are more than ten males but only one girl. Therefore, Xue Ning'er has been favored since she was born. Some people took advantage of her birthday banquet and offered generous gifts. To curry favor with the Xue family.

  "Young Master Wei He from the Hou Mansion of Yongchun, present a pair of Yu Ruyi!"

  "Master Shen Yun from the Giant Luhou Mansion, give a hand of Jasper Pipa."

  "Ms. Chen Peipei from the Palace of the Kingdom of Chen, give away ten thousand taels of silver."

  ……

  At the gate of the government office, there is a housekeeper who is responsible for receiving gifts. While recording the gifts, they read the gifts aloud from the crowd.

  The one who was pronounced the name turned his head and bowed his hands to the people who were still in line, and then strode in.

  A young man handed over the invitation, the butler looked at the name in front of the invitation, and said loudly: "Ping’an, Master Lin Xiulin, send it..."

   After finishing speaking, he saw that the young man did not move, and whispered: "My son, where is your gift?"

   Lin Xiu said: "My gift is quite special, and I will give it to Ning'er myself in a while."

  The butler didn’t say much about this. Those young people who pursued their own maidens just like to engage in this set. As long as the invitation is true, he will not stop it.

  It’s just that a small third-class son who also wants to pursue his own lady is undoubtedly wishful thinking. Although his appearance is indeed unmatched among the many suitors of the lady, his identity is still too low.

  At this moment, a discussion broke out among the guests who were still in line at the gate of the mansion.

   "Uncle Ping An, isn't Uncle Ping a third-class uncle? I heard that Uncle Zhongyong was not invited. Where did his invitation come from?"

   "I don't know, maybe it's Miss Ning'er's friend."

   "No way, Ms. Ning'er's friend, how could she not even bring gifts?"

   "Lin Xiu, isn't Lin Xiu the one who has a marriage contract with Zhao's daughter? He is here too?"

   "What, it's him, **** it, you don't share the vengeance of the wife!"

  ……

  The banquet has not yet started, and Xue Mansion is already very lively.

  Lin Xiu walked into the yard and looked around, but there was no one she knew.

  It’s no wonder that not long after he came to this world, the only friend who was regarded as a friend was the mysterious Li Baizhang. He said he was a commoner and an ordinary family, but Lin Xiu always had doubts about this.

  A commoner, where has so much knowledge, how can he know so much about the powerful and powerful in the royal capital, but he didn't say it, and Lin Xiu didn't study it carefully.

  Lin Xiu made friends with him, it was just the sympathy between the two sea kings, which had nothing to do with his identity.

  As for the other classmates who had mixed faces, they were Xue Ning'er’s licking dogs, and had no chance to attend tonight’s dinner, so the others were all in groups, talking and laughing, but he didn’t even have anyone to talk.

  Fortunately, Xue Ning'er, as the protagonist tonight, was welcoming guests in the yard. When he saw Lin Xiu, he waved to him happily, and then walked over in small steps.

  A group of young men and women also flocked to her.

  Xue Ning'er wore a pale yellow Luo skirt today, with delicate makeup on her face, not too thick or light, just right.

  Her hair was combed into Ling Yunji, with many ornaments dotted on it, shining brightly under the shining of candlelight, as if her whole person was bathed in dazzling light.

  There is no doubt that Xue Ning'er is undoubtedly the only focus of Xue Mansion tonight.

  The women beside her also have excellent looks, but everything standing with her turned into green leaves that set off the red flowers.

  Of course, there is another important reason. Qin Wan, Zhao Lingyin, and Princess Minghe were not invited to her birthday party.

  If any one of them comes, the situation tonight will only be a two-month contender.

  Of course, it is reasonable for Xue Ning'er not to invite them.

  If Lin Xiu was Xue Ning'er, she would not invite it either.

  I have to say that Xue Ning'er, as one of the four beauties in the Alien Art Academy, aside from her family background, she also has unique advantages just as a woman.

  If she is not that green tea, Lin Xiu is still willing to be friends with her.

  Lin Xiu looked at Xue Ning'er who was coming by, and smiled and said, "Girl Ning'er tonight is more beautiful than ever."

  Xue Ning'er was slightly happy, Lin Xiu, this person is really too good at talking.

  The other people I saw just now praised her for being beautiful tonight. Isn’t she not beautiful in normal times?

  Among the countless praises and compliments tonight, only Lin Xiu’s sentence is the one that caught her most.

  I don’t know why, as long as she talks to Lin Xiu, even if she is depressed, she will quickly become happy.

  She blushed slightly, pretending to be shy: "Nothing..."

Suddenly I don’t know where this handsome guy appeared. The expressions of several young men next to Xue Ning’er changed. One of them even smiled and said without a smile: “Ning’er, who is this Xiongtai? How come you have never seen it before, don’t you tell us about it?"

  Xue Ning'er stood next to Lin Xiu and said to everyone: "This is Master Lin Xiulin of Ping An House. He is a good friend of mine."

When    heard that he was the son of Uncle Ping An, everyone immediately let go of their hearts.

   thought it was some kind of person, but he didn't expect to be the son of a third-class uncle Ping An. Such a person is not qualified to be their opponent at all.

  Furthermore, among the nobles in the capital, who doesn’t know that the son of Uncle Ping, who has a marriage contract with the daughter of the Zhao family, naturally has no competitive relationship with them-wait!

  The son of Uncle Ping An, isn’t the son of Uncle Ping An’s fiancé of Zhao’s Tianjiao? Is this the person!

  For a time, everyone felt a little complicated and unspeakable.

  Although they are pursuing Xue Ning'er, who doesn’t know Zhao Lingjun?

  If they were asked to choose between Zhao Lingjun and Xue Ning'er, they would choose the former without hesitation, but they would not have this choice in their dreams.

  Faced with the goddess of the Zhao family, they all felt that they were unworthy.

  The guy in front of me who has nothing but good looks is even more unworthy.

  But he is really Zhao Lingjun’s fiancé.

  So they are jealous.

   Very jealous.

Xue Ning'er seemed to have not noticed the changes in the expressions of the people, and introduced Lin Xiu one by one: "This is the second son of the Wei Guo family, Wei Wenyuan, and this is the eldest son of the Qi Guo family, Qi Qingxiao, this is from the mansion of Chen Guo Gong. Chen Peipei, she is also my good friend..."

  According to the order, the last young man was introduced, Xue Ninger said: "This is Yang Xuan, the eldest son of Yongping Houfu..."

  Those people in front of Lin Xiu just clasped fists slightly to show off. When Xue Ning'er introduced Master Dao Yongping Hou, Lin Xiu raised her head and looked at him, with a smile on the corners of her mouth, and said: "Brother Yang, Jiu Yang, Jiu Yang..."

  Looking at Lin Xiu’s gentle smile, for some reason, Yang Xuan suddenly felt a chill in his heart.

But soon this feeling disappeared. If it was not for the fear of the Zhao family, he would pinch this person to death, it would be no more difficult than pinching an ant. He and Lin Xiu looked at each other with a smile, and said, "Since it's Ning'er. The girl’s friend is naturally the friend I am waiting for.

  Lin Xiuruo smiled deeply and said: "It should be, it should be..."
