Chapter 535 [Old 9 Gates 14]
Banjie Li teased, "Master Jiu, you actually have three beautiful women hidden at home! I am so envious. But which one do you want to recognize today?"
Master Jie Jiu smiled slightly, pointed at them and introduced them, "The one wearing the purple cheongsam is my younger sister Jie Youyou, she is gentle and kind; the one wearing the blue cheongsam is the eldest daughter of the Xinyue Hotel, Yin Xinyue, she is beautiful; as for the woman wearing the emerald green cheongsam, she is Lin Yueyue, from today on, she is the second daughter of our Jie Mansion."
Youyou smiled and took Lin Yueyue's hand, announcing to everyone: "Welcome everyone to the Jie Mansion. This is my sister, Lin Yueyue. I hope everyone can take good care of her in the future."
Hearing this, Qi Tiezui spoke first: "Of course. If Yueyue encounters any difficulties in the future, you can always come to my Qi family for help. Although my Qi family does not have much power, as long as we can, we will do our best."
Er Yuehong nodded, expressing his agreement: "Eighth Master is absolutely right."
The tangerine peel brought by Er Yuehong kept staring at Lin Yueyue, his eyes were deep and ardent, as if to penetrate her soul. She felt that this girl had a unique temperament and charm that could make her unable to help but be attracted to her.
Chen Pi raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a faint smile, and said softly: "Miss Lin, if you encounter any troubles or need help in the future, you can come to the Hong family to find me, Chen Pi, at any time. I am the apprentice of the Second Master and will do my best to help." His voice was low and magnetic, which made people fall in love with him.
Huo Jinxi on the side also said: "Although my Huo family cannot make too many promises to you, if you encounter something within our ability, we will do our best to help. After all, we are all from the Nine Gates and should support each other." Her eyes were firm and gentle, revealing her kindness towards Lin Yueyue.
Several other families also nodded and expressed their willingness to provide help. They would help to some extent for the sake of Mr. Jie Jiu's face.
Lin Yueyue nodded gratefully, tears glistening in her eyes, and said, "Thank you all for your help."
Next, a series of solemn and traditional kinship recognition ceremonies began. First, Master Jie Jiu took Lin Yueyue to the ancestral hall of the Jie family and asked Lin Yueyue to kneel down respectfully and perform the ritual of three kneelings and nine kowtows to the ancestors of the Jie family to show respect and inheritance of the family history.
Then, Master Jiu Xie officially wrote Lin Yueyue's name into the Xie family genealogy, and she became a member of the Xie family. This process was full of solemnity and sacredness, allowing the people present to feel the importance of family inheritance.
When everything was over, Master Jiu stood up and said to everyone with a smile: "Thank you all for coming today. Let us witness this important moment together. Now that the ceremony is over, I hope everyone can enjoy this feast. If there is any inadequacy in the hospitality, please forgive me."
Everyone responded, "Master Jiu, you are so polite!" Smiles were on their faces, and they were looking forward to the happy time that was to come.
The head of the Jiumen, Youyou, Lin Yueyue, Chenpi and Yin Xinyue were arranged to sit at the same table. On the left of Youyou sat Jie Jiuye, and on the right was supposed to be Yin Xinyue's seat, but Zhang Qishan took the seat first, so Yin Xinyue could only sit on the other side of Jie Jiuye. Lin Yueyue sat next to Yin Xinyue, and Chenpi quickly took the seat next to Lin Yueyue. Er Yuehong saw this scene and chose the seat next to Chenpi without hesitation. Other guests also found an empty seat and sat down casually.
Qi Tiezui looked at the scene in front of him, and a strange feeling surged in his heart, but he couldn't tell exactly what was wrong. The whole scene seemed a bit chaotic, everyone seemed to have their own little calculations, and this atmosphere made people feel a little weird.
Youyou was surprised to see Zhang Qishan sitting next to her. But she didn't say much, just silently observing this mysterious man. On the other side, Yin Xinyue was staring at Zhang Qishan angrily, her eyes full of hostility, as if she wanted to burn two holes in him. Zhang Qishan naturally noticed Yin Xinyue's gaze, but he pretended to ignore it and ate his meal.
During the meal, Zhang Qishan noticed that Youyou had a special liking for shrimps, so he picked up a few shrimps, carefully peeled them, and then put the shrimp meat into Youyou's bowl and handed it to her. Youyou looked at Zhang Qishan in surprise, full of doubts. This person was so strange. Although he was handsome and exactly the type he liked, it was clearly their first meeting today, so why was he so intimate?
Seeing that Youyou was unmoved, Zhang Qishan handed the shrimp meat forward and motioned for Youyou to eat it.
Youyou shook her head helplessly, and secretly sighed in her heart: This man is so bold that he dares to flirt with her openly in front of her brother, and his technique is so skillful that he doesn't show any embarrassment at all.
Youyou secretly glanced at her brother and found that he didn't seem to have seen what happened just now, so she felt relieved. In this case, Zhang Qishan kept asking her to eat, so she ate it. After all, the shrimp meat that she didn't have to peel by herself was delicious!
When Zhang Qishan saw Youyou eating the shrimp he peeled himself, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a barely perceptible smile. In fact, when he first saw Youyou walk in, he was already deeply attracted to her. It seemed as if there was a voice in his mind telling him: She is the one he has been looking for.
Qi Tiezui was keenly aware of the interaction between Zhang Qishan and Youyou. He was so surprised that his mouth opened wide and he couldn't close it for a long time. He thought to himself, "When did these two get together? Today is clearly their first meeting! Oh my god, has the Buddha finally found his true colors? He has learned how to flirt with girls?"
Huo Jinxi felt very strange when she saw Qi Tiezui with his mouth open, and couldn't help but wonder, "Eighth Master, what's wrong with you? Why is your mouth open so wide?"
At this moment, everyone's eyes turned to Qi Tiezui, and Master Jie Jiu couldn't help but ask curiously: "Master Ba, what's wrong with you?"
Qi Tiezui was about to say, "Not yet..." when Zhang Qishan glared at him fiercely. He immediately understood what he meant and quickly swallowed his words back into his stomach. He replied vaguely, "It's okay, my mouth is just spicy and I want to breathe."
After hearing this, Huo Jinxi nodded thoughtfully and said, "So that's how it is. Since the food is spicy, you should drink more water." After that, she picked up a glass of water and handed it to Qi Tiezui.
Qi Tiezui took the water cup and drank it in big gulps, secretly thanking himself for reacting quickly and not exposing Zhang Qishan's plan. Zhang Qishan continued to eat with a blank expression, as if nothing had happened.
