At this point, it's already early afternoon.
Ling Hu's black face was red, twisting and pinching, like a big girl, and said embarrassedly: "Brother, really go." ” "It's okay not to go, but then you can't marry her as a daughter-in-law."
Ling Xian quipped.
"No, no, no, let's go."
Ling Hu's head shook like a rattle, and he couldn't care about being shy, so he hurriedly led the way in front of his head, pulling Ling Xian and walking out.
"You kid, although it's normal to get married at the age of fourteen, you're too anxious."
Ling Xian laughed and let Ling Hu pull him forward.
Hu Ziniang on the side couldn't help but laugh, but a trace of loss flashed in her eyes.
The son has grown up and is going to marry a daughter-in-law, and in her heart, in addition to a trace of relief, there is also a trace of indescribable feeling.
"Brother, don't make fun of me."
Ling Hu smiled innocently, a little worried as he walked, and said, "Brother, he said that he had to take 10,000 spirit stones before he could propose, you" Without waiting for Ling Xian to speak, Hu Ziniang smiled slightly, and said with emotion: "With your brother's current strength, do you still need to worry about the spirit stone, as long as you go to that station, your future father-in-law, I'm afraid you won't even dare to mention the matter of the spirit stone." ” "It's not that exaggerated."
Ling Xian waved his hand and said with a smile: "Auntie, I don't plan to bully others, let's follow the normal marriage process, and the dowry should be given a lot, don't let his family look down on our family, but he actually dares to deliberately make things difficult for Huzi, this breath, I won't swallow it easily." ” "Okay, it's all up to you."
Hu Ziniang nodded with satisfaction, and said in her heart that Ling Xian, this kid is not only strong in cultivation, but also understands the sophistication of human feelings.
Indeed, Ling Xian did this, which was the most appropriate way to deal with it, not only to earn face, but also not to let the other party look down on Ling Hu, thinking that he was just relying on himself to have a good brother, and he could let out a bad breath to make the other party pay attention to Ling Hu, and with the dowry in front, he would not make the relationship too stiff.
Ling Xian smiled faintly and patted Ling Hu's shoulder, signaling that he could rest assured.
A hint of excitement flashed in Ling Hu's eyes, leading the way in front of him, and a group of three people walked slowly towards Ling Tiannan's house.
Ling Tianao has been very busy lately, even busier than Patriarch Ling Tianqing.
Although the Ling family had greatly increased their power after annexing the wealth and territory of the Fang Qi family, they were extremely prominent.
But in fact, it was at the time of a wasted employment, but after a big war, most of the Ling family had already died in battle, and the rest were some young people who were difficult to take on big responsibilities, so no matter what happened, he had to do it himself.
Fortunately, he found a very capable side disciple, who was also Ling Tiannan.
This person was strong in cultivation, had a tough heart, and was good at handling family affairs, so Ling Tianao promoted him to the head of the deacon, with a lot of authority, second only to the elders.
At this moment, Ling Tianao was walking on the path, and was about to go to Ling Tiannan to discuss matters, suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he saw Ling Xian not far away, and suddenly trotted and came to Ling Xian.
"Ling Gongzi, where are you going" Ling Tianao clasped his fists and saluted, the smile on his face was bright, and there was a faint hint of humility.
"Second Elder" Ling Xian was stunned for a moment, and said, "Don't call me Ling Gongzi, you can't afford it, just call me Ling Xian." ” "That's not going to work."
Ling Tianao hurriedly waved his hand and said with a smile: "The word Gongzi is an order given by my father personally, and his old man ordered me to wait, and when I see you in the future, I must be honored as Gongzi." ” Ling Xian's brows furrowed slightly, knowing that it should be Ling Tianqing who told the old patriarch about his imminent worship in the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, but if he met someone and called himself Gongzi, it really made him feel very unaccustomed, and said with a wry smile: "It's all a family, why bother being so angry" "This is not a birth, but the respect you must get, my father has already said it, and it has been written into the clan rules, the Ling family from the patriarch to the servant, if anyone dares to be disrespectful to you, there will be no forgiveness" Ling Tianao shook his head, the last sentence was murderous, it can be seen that he was not hindered by Ling Xian's strong strength to show such humility, but more of a kind of respect from the heart.
Written into the family rules Whoever dares to be disrespectful to Ling Xian will be killed When Ling Hu and Hu Ziniang on the side heard this, a trace of shock flashed in their eyes, they already knew all the feats that Ling Xian had done, and they also knew that he was now the strongest person in Qingcheng, but they never expected that the Ling family would actually add a new family rule for Ling Xian alone As the so-called state has national laws, and families have family rules, there are a total of twelve family rules of the Ling family, and none of them are specially set up by someone, even the ancestors of the Ling family.
However, now a clan rule has been added to Ling Xian, and it is clearly written that up and down the Ling family, anyone who dares to disrespect him will be killed This is an incredible thing, and it is a great honor Ling Xian couldn't help but be stunned, a trace of astonishment flashed in his eyes, and he said in confusion: "There are a total of twelve clan rules, I remember that the last revision was ten years ago, and now a clan rule has been set up specifically for me, the old patriarch really favors me, but no one else, there is no objection?"
"Who would object" Ling Tianao asked rhetorically, and said with a smile: "Now the entire Ling family is grateful to you and regards you as a reborn parent, no one opposes it at all, not to mention, without you, there would be no lives for our people, and there is no prosperous Ling family now, what is a mere family rule?"
"Then thank you to the old patriarch and the Ling family."
Ling Xian smiled lightly, he didn't attach much importance to the so-called clan rules, as long as his strength was strong enough, anyone who saw him would have to be respectful, where could he be restrained by a clan rule It's just that after all, this is a piece of good intentions from top to bottom of the Ling family, and Ling Xian is naturally not easy to refuse.
"Actually, this family rule is only for our children and grandchildren, even if our generation does not have that piece of paper, they will be grateful to you in their hearts, respect you, and dare not be disrespectful, I am afraid that after a long time, the younger generations will forget the great achievements you have made for the Ling family, so my father specially set this rule to warn future generations."
Ling Tianjiao's expression was serious and serious.
Hearing this, although Ling Xian was not flattered, but more or less warm, he saved the entire Ling family in a time of crisis, although he did not ask for anything in return, but the Ling family was able to respect him so much, which made him feel very relieved, feeling that he had not paid in vain.
Ling Tianjiao glanced at Ling Hu and Hu Ziniang and asked, "By the way, Ling Gongzi, where are you going?"
"We're going to propose."
Ling Xian replied.
"Propose" Ling Tianjiao was shocked, and thought that Ling Xian had a sweetheart, so he hurriedly asked: "Which girl is so lucky to be favored by Ling Gongzi, it is really a blessing that has been cultivated for thousands of lifetimes." ” Ling Xian laughed and said, "It's not me, it's my younger brother." ” "Oh" Ling Tianjiao looked at Ling Hu, a hint of surprise flashed on his face, and then nodded with a smile, and praised: "Sure enough, he is worthy of being Ling Gongzi's younger brother, what a talent, Yushu is in the wind." ” A table of talents Yushu is in the wind Ling Xianqiang couldn't hold back a smile, admiring Ling Tianjiao's ability to keep his face from blushing and his heart not beating, and naturally said these words against his will.
Even Hu Ziniang couldn't help laughing, although Ling Hu was good in her eyes, but she knew very well that what her son looked like, no matter how she looked at it, it didn't match Yushu Linfeng.
"That, the second elder has won the prize."
Ling Hu scratched his head and smiled innocently.
Ling Tianjiao smiled, looked at Hu Ziniang again, and asked, "This is again" "It's Ling Hu's mother, and the two of them are my only relatives."
Ling Xian deliberately accentuated his tone on the word relative.
Suddenly, Ling Tianjiao's face changed slightly, and he rushed to Ling Xian's only relative, he had to keep this mother and son in mind, and he had to put them in a very high position, and he couldn't be the slightest slack, and praised: "Although it is a coarse linen cloth, it is difficult to hide its beauty, although it is over the middle of the year, it is still charming, and the beautiful appearance of the year can be vaguely seen." ” "The Second Elder has won the award."
Hu Ziniang's face was slightly red, she never dreamed that one day she would be able to talk to the younger brother of the contemporary patriarch, the real power figure of the Ling family.
But not only did she say it at this moment, but Ling Tianjiao was also so polite to her, which made Hu Ziniang suddenly feel unreal, like a dream.

Secretly sighing, Hu Ziniang knew that Ling Tianjiao was so polite to her mother and son, it was entirely because of Ling Xian's big face.
"Okay, don't talk too much, we have to rush to propose, Second Elder, don't leave it at that."
Ling Xian saw that he had been delayed for a long time, and said a word of farewell.
"Young Master Ling, let me go with me to be happy, maybe I can help a little."
Ling Tianjiao wanted to take this opportunity to leave a good impression in the heart of this promising Tianjiao in front of him.
Ling Xian pondered for a moment, and said in his heart that as Ling Hu's elder brother, it was best not to make a big deal until the last resort, and Ling Tianjiao had a noble status and a lot of authority, if he was taken with him, it would definitely bring an invisible deterrent to Ling Tiannan, so he nodded and said, "It's okay, then let's go together." ” "Thank you, Young Master Ling."
Ling Tianjiao was overjoyed.
The group of four people went on the road again, but the more they walked, the more Ling Tianjiao wondered, could it be that Ling Tiannan's family in this direction seemed to have a daughter.
Thinking of this, Ling Tianjiao opened his mouth and asked, "Young Master Ling, the place we are going to is Ling Tiannan's home."
"You know him," Ling Xian was surprised.
"Of course, it's a coincidence that he's my henchman."
Ling Tianjiao smiled all over his face, and said in his heart that he didn't expect his henchman to be able to climb with Ling Xian, this was really an unexpected joy.
However, the next moment, Ling Xian's face became gloomy, causing the Second Elder to tremble in fright, and then he heard a bland word with a hint of anger slowly sounding.
"It's really a coincidence, it turns out that this person is your confidant, no wonder he dares to be so arrogant."
"Ling Gongzi, it's not that he offended you, but why do you want to propose."
Ling Tianjiao was confused, not understanding why Ling Xian was suddenly angry.
Ling Xian's expression was calm, he looked at Ling Tianjiao who was at a loss, and said lightly: "Second Elder, my brother and his daughter are in love, and they have already made a private agreement for life, but he beat the mandarin ducks and deliberately made things difficult for my brother, you say, is he too arrogant and who is the courage to give him?"
"Ling Gongzi is angry" Ling Tianjiao trembled, his mind was quick, his wit was like a fox, he instantly figured out the whole story, and couldn't help but show a bitter smile on his face, and said: "It's because my majesty is not strict, and I still hope that Ling Gongzi will atone for his sins." ” In all fairness, from Ling Tiannan's point of view, as a father, it is naturally not wrong for him to hope that his daughter will have a good life, but from Ling Xian's point of view, as an elder brother, it is normal for his younger brother to be deliberately harassed, and it is normal for him to be angry.
"It has nothing to do with you, the second elder doesn't need to blame himself, it's just that I hope you can give me a satisfactory explanation for this matter."
The corners of Ling Xian's mouth raised slightly, he just deliberately pretended to be angry, in order to scare Ling Tianjiao.
As for why he did it, the next chapter tells you.
