Chapter 324 Visiting the Liu Family Again, Mother-in-Law's Little Emotion
Walking out of the "water meter circle" of the capital, Li Jing came to the door of Liu's house not long after rising from the air.
Before he had time to land, he saw a crowd of people in front of Liu's house.
On both sides of the road, there are all kinds of luxury cars and supercars parked, including concept cars that are rarely seen on the market.
In front of the Liu family's mansion, there were many well-dressed guests coming in and out.
About a dozen Li Jing looked at the Liu family's children who were born opposite each other in front of the door, and they were so busy that they couldn't help but enjoy themselves.
Do you know what it means to be soft when you receive a gift?
Every guest who came forward showed the invitation card, and took out piles of gifts at hand.
Spiritual objects, spiritual materials, strange objects, talismanic creations, etc., you can tell by looking at them that they are not cheap, and the quantity is not ordinary.
Even the children of the Liu family who were in charge of welcoming guests were only responsible for welcoming guests, and the receiving gifts were put away by special personnel carrying space equipment, as if they were afraid that the storage space would not fit.
Compared with this grand occasion, Liu Teng's birthday was not even a small scene.
And among the guests who came to the door, there was not a single face that Li Jing was familiar with.
This illustrates a problem.
These people were not the ones who came to celebrate Liu Teng's birthday.
If nothing unexpected happens.
This group of guests are all heavyweights...
Although Liu Teng's birthday was not a small event at the beginning, each of the seven families just sent a few representatives over to express their interest.
Except for Jiang Yini, the core disciple of the Jiang family who came here by herself, none of the real important figures from the seven families came.
Not just the seven families.
Most of the small and medium-sized families, enterprises, etc., did not send their core personnel.
On the whole, it is simply to save face, but not too much.
Seeing the grand occasion in front of Liu's house, Li Jing had a strange expression on his face.
This wave of the Liu family has really taken off.
The guests are all worth their weight, not counting,
Giving gifts is enough to make the entire Liu family rich.
So here comes the problem.
Li Jing clearly remembered what Liu Sisi said.
His mother-in-law's birthday banquet was held in the evening.
It's only before ten o'clock, so what kind of mentality do these guests have when they come here so early?
The Liu family, do you have lunch ready?
But this wave, can be regarded as saving him trouble.
Li Jing originally thought that as Liu Shi's son-in-law, he would inevitably come out to the platform when welcoming guests, and he had already made mental preparations.
The meeting has already started, so of course he won't be needed.
He doesn't even know who is here, isn't it a joke to ask him to welcome guests?
Thinking that he had nothing to do with him, Li Jing was in a bright mood, and his eyes fell on a man and a woman who were copying quickly with a small notebook among the Liu family children in front of the door who were in charge of receiving gifts.
These two are the only people he knows well from the Liu family's children to the guests.
In name, these two are still his brother-in-law and sister-in-law.
That's right.
Those two people are Liu Xiangdi and Liu Xiaoya.
Judging by the looks of the two of them, they should be busy writing down who gave what, so that they can return the gift later.
This year's Liu Family Patriarch is fine.
Back then, Liu Teng didn't pay much attention to it.
But it was understandable that there was not.
After all, there were no heavyweights at that time, and Liu Tengyi was the head of the family, so he still needed cards, and it was impossible to specially celebrate the birthdays of some insignificant children from various families.
There is no reason to throw a birthday banquet when you go to the other party.
No identity, no status, even if there is a birthday banquet, not many people will take care of it.
Seeing Liu Xiangdi and Liu Xiaoya busy there, Li Jing hesitated, and quietly went to an inconspicuous corner of the street to land.
In principle, he could activate the Silent Phantom and go in quietly to avoid attracting too much unnecessary attention.
But today's birthday is different.
It's his mother-in-law.
He is coming late this time.
If he couldn't catch up to stand for Liu Shi, he at least had to show his face seriously and mention the name of mother-in-law.
It's not that Li Jing is being sentimental.
When he got in touch with Jiuli last night, he had already learned that the reason why each family is so enthusiastic about the Liu family is not because of today's protagonist Liu Shi, but because of him as the son-in-law.
Since they are all coming for him, it is necessary for him to show up, right?
As for whether showing up like this would appear to be too much of a distraction, Li Jing didn't think about it.
Anyway, Liu Shi himself would definitely not care about these things.
As for the new head of the Liu family and his descendants, Li Jing didn't care.
Standing still at the corner of the street, Li Jing took out a mirror and adjusted his appearance before walking towards the main entrance of Liu's house.
On the way, no one recognized him.
With the improvement of cultivation base, under the continuous influence of the body training and exercise route, Li Jing's original ordinary appearance has become quite handsome, and the changes during the period are not ordinary.
Between acquaintances, there will not be much influence.
Those who should be recognized can still be recognized.
After all, the face change is continuous, not a change of appearance in one breath.
See it from time to time, and naturally adapt to gradual changes.
In a situation like Li Jing's, it's hard for strangers to recognize him at a glance.
In addition, there is also a blind spot to be mentioned.
Normal qi refining will also cause changes in appearance as the aura continues to nourish the physical body.
But it's not as obvious as body training.
Therefore, unless one really knows Li Jing and is familiar with him, no one can recognize him now.
Not to mention that there were no people familiar with Li Jing, even if there were, he was only in the fifth realm when he came to the capital.
Now that he is in the seventh realm, it is no exaggeration to say that his appearance is earth-shaking.
This is not.
Li Jing walked unimpeded all the way to the back of the long line of guests blocking the main gate of Liu's house. Seeing the long line of guests, he simply walked around to Liu Xiangdi and Liu Xiaoya.
Before she could make a sound, Liu Xiaoya, who was busy recording the gifts from the guests, looked up at him with a soft smile on her face.
"Hello, please go to the back and line up to show the invitation card."
As she spoke, she lowered her head and began to write furiously.
Seeing this, Li Jing's mouth twitched.
Liu Xiaoya just smiled sweetly, but her attitude was too perfunctory.
certainly.
That's not the point.
The point is, she didn't recognize someone.
This made Li Jing very "sad".
His changes are indeed not small, and Liu Xiaoya is not very familiar with him.
But anyway, he is her brother-in-law, isn't he?
Remember the appearance of your brother-in-law carefully, as long as you remember it in your heart, you can at least recognize it from the outline.
Thinking back to the time when he came to the capital, Liu Xiaoya smeared honey like her little mouth, and Li Jing only felt that he was being dealt with.
Liu Xiaoya didn't recognize Li Jing, and Liu Xiangdi didn't recognize him either.
But because Li Jingchu was in front of him, he couldn't help but look at someone more.
With these two glances, he immediately realized something was wrong.
this……
Looking like my brother-in-law?
Seeing Li Jing standing there with his mouth twitching slightly, Liu Xiangdi hurriedly elbowed Liu Xiaoya, and then said respectfully.
"Brother-in-law."
Liu Xiangdi yelled at Liu Xiaoya with a lot of force, causing her to stagger twice on the spot.
Who is Liu Xiaoya?
That little temper tantrum got up at that time.
Seeing that her pretty face darkened, she turned her head and was about to say something.
Hearing "brother-in-law" suddenly, she hurriedly shut up and swallowed back the words on her lips, and then looked in front of her.
In front of her, Li Jing was naturally still there.
She was busy just now, so she really didn't pay attention.
Looking at it now, she is conscious.
Isn't TM her brother-in-law?
Immediately, Liu Xiaoya underwent a 720-degree face change.
The originally gloomy little face turned cloudy and sunny in an instant, smiling like a flower, with an "oops" on his mouth.
"Brother-in-law, I haven't seen you for a few months. Why have you become so handsome? I'm sorry, I was too busy just now. You've changed so much, I didn't recognize you at once."
While speaking, Liu Xiaoya casually stuffed the small book in Liu Xiangdi's hand. ? ? ?
Liu Xiangdi.
Before he could react, Liu Xiaoya stepped forward and hugged someone's arm without saying a word.
"Brother-in-law, you must be very tired after coming all the way from Jianghai. I'll take you to find my sister."
have to say.
Liu Xiaoya's praise is quite in place with her physical offensive.
If it were an ordinary person, he might be fooled.
But Li Jing.
Everything is fine, just a little narrow-minded.
"It's okay, you are busy with your work, I can go in by myself."
With a kind smile, Li Jing shook his hand and broke free from Liu Xiaoya, and gave her a look that made you stand still.
Now Liu Xiangdi also reacted.
His old sister doesn't talk about martial ethics, she took advantage of Li Jing's arrival and found an excuse to sneak away, and wanted to leave him here alone to keep accounts.
He casually grabbed Liu Xiaoya's collar at the nape of her neck who was rejected and insisted on sticking to Li Jing's body, and Liu Xiangdi mercilessly pulled her back.
"Brother-in-law said that he can do it, you should have heard it. Also don't forget our task today, we have to clarify the accounts here."
As he spoke, he looked at Li Jing.
"Brother-in-law, I'll go find you after I finish my work with Xiao Ya."
"Um."
Li Jing nodded, turned around and went straight in.
Seeing that someone turned around and left without even a chance to speak, Liu Xiaoya felt anxious.
She is a temperament that cannot stand loneliness.
This is like being on duty at the gate to keep accounts, she can't stay at all.
Now that Li Jing is here, it just happens to be a reasonable excuse to sneak away.
Her brother-in-law has a lot of cards.
Now it has radiated to the entire Liu family.
Aren't so many important people here today just for her brother-in-law?
Now that people are here, no one should entertain them seriously?
Unexpectedly, Li Jing walked fast, and there was Liu Xiangdi behind him, so it was useless for Liu Xiaoya to be anxious.
In front of so many distinguished guests, it's impossible for her to make a mistake, right?
There is a large crowd, and girls have to have the reserve no matter what.
Seeing Li Jing enter the door and disappear from sight in a blink of an eye, Liu Xiaoya sighed and turned her head to stare at Liu Xiangdi, helplessly continuing to keep the accounts.
Such a small episode attracted the attention of many guests present.
Today's visitors are all running for Li Jing.
Regarding Li Jing, everyone has detailed information.
It's just that the photos about appearance are all identity information obtained through special channels.
What is Li Jing's identity file?
Not long after crossing over...
Longyu's identity information has comprehensively considered various factors, including the change of appearance, so the public is required to go to the municipal government to update it every three years.
It's not enough for Li Jing to travel through three years...
As a result, the profile photos in the hands of the visitors are seriously outdated, and they are completely incompatible with themselves.
But serious homework, they have done.
Liu Xiaoya and Liu Xiangdi are the focus of attention.
There is no other reason.
The two are the adopted daughter and adopted son of Liu Shi respectively.
They have only one older sister, Liu Shi's only daughter, Liu Sisi.
Such a scrutiny.
Li Jing's identity was about to be revealed.
However, Li Jing walked really fast, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
This is more embarrassing.
Those of them who haven't had time to show the invitation to give the birthday gift, can't they break into Liu's house just to talk to each other, right?
All the guests were heartbroken.
It is a great opportunity to meet Li Jing before the birthday banquet and talk to him.
When the birthday banquet starts, one may be busy with something.
There are not fewer people who want to talk to you.
Such a good opportunity turned out to be a mistake...
The other Liu family children who were welcoming guests at the door confirmed that Li Jing had arrived, and entered the Liu family mansion without making a sound, somewhat confused.
Their uncle came and left quietly, and they didn't even know when he came.
And because they were busy with various affairs at hand, they didn't even have time to see what people were like now.
Among the crowd, Liu An, the only son of Liu Deming, the new head of the Liu family, hastily took out his mobile phone and informed his father who was entertaining the guests in the main courtyard.
...
Inside the Liu family mansion.
Li Jing entered the door and turned on the Silent Phantom.
He's already shown it.
It's time to get up.
The news of his arrival will spread quickly, and the Liu family will have to find him immediately, and they may introduce guests to him.
This is too much trouble.
True.
When he came this time, he would inevitably face all kinds of coping.
But this kind of thing, put it on the birthday banquet.
The birthday banquet officially started at night, and he was entangled early in the morning, so he would have no freedom for the whole day.
After entering the inner courtyard, Li Jing went to Liu Shi's mansion on the familiar road.
Such things as birthday banquets are definitely not what Liu Shi wants to put on.
Even if she had an idea, it wouldn't be so fanfare.
Liu Shi is not such a high-profile person, otherwise she would not be hiding in her private house all day long, not caring about anything, only showing up when the Liu family is in crisis.
This birthday banquet can only be presented by the Liu family themselves.
There's nothing to say about that.
After all, the Liu family has fallen, and it takes a lot of experience to rise again.
It is inevitable to take advantage of the situation to build momentum.
Liu Shi herself has no objection to this.
Although her attitude of guarding the Liu family is quite suspicious, but since she guards the Liu family, she naturally hopes that the Liu family will be better.
Put that aside.
Li Jing is sure that Liu Shi's private house is a "pure land" at this time.
Being used by the Liu family to create momentum, Liu Shi would have no objection.
But to disturb her cleanliness, the head of the family who has only been in office for a few months may have to be replaced again.
as expected.
When Li Jing walked into the corner where Liu Shi's private house was located, he found that there were children from the Liu family guarding it, preventing anyone from going to the wrong place.
On the path leading to the private house, not even a single person could be seen.
Quietly walking past the disciples of the Liu family who were in charge of "fortification", Li Jing went straight inside.
When he was about to approach the courtyard, he saw a graceful figure walking out of the courtyard, and looked over in a little surprise.
Li Jing paused when he saw this, and was also a little surprised.
The person who came out of the courtyard was either someone else or Liu Shi.
Although Liu Sisi and Liu Shi's mother and daughter are almost carved out of the same mold, there is a big difference in temperament between the two, which can be seen at a glance.
So here comes the problem.
Liu Shi obviously noticed his arrival before walking out of the courtyard.
And at this moment, he is in the state of silent phantom.
Liu Shishang is still in the Six Realms, so he can detect it just by approaching?
This is not a question of the Silent Phantom being Liu Shi's own creation and knowing its characteristics.
It stands to reason.
Unless it is a master who has opened up the spiritual world like Serena, even people who are not affected by the silent phantom will not notice anything before seeing him with the naked eye.
Focusing on Liu Shi who was scrutinizing him from afar, Li Jing was sincerely moved.
My own mother-in-law is really a little unfathomable.
Li Jing even had some doubts that she had already entered the Seventh Realm.
Just like himself, he concealed the truth and did not make it public, and continued to guard the Liu family.
But that doesn't make sense.
Even if Liu Shi has entered the seventh realm, there is no reason to notice him before he approaches.
Reminiscent of Liu Sisi's special physique, Liu Shi may also be a holder of a special physique.
A special physique appears randomly, and it is not bad if it falls on a certain person and affects his life.
According to statistics.
Parents or further relatives in the family line have a special constitution, and the probability of a certain special constitution in the offspring is higher.
Quietly restraining his mind, Li Jing dismissed the Silent Phantom, and stepped forward to it with a smile on his lips.
"Mom, I'm sorry I'm a little late."
Liu Shi smiled and nodded upon hearing the sound.
"You have something to do, and being able to come over here shows that you have a heart, and that's enough."
As she spoke, she read brokenly.
"The banquet itself is unnecessary. I haven't celebrated my birthday in many years. I don't know if it's for my birthday or what to do if I have such a big battle all of a sudden. If I want to talk about this, I have to blame you."
"Yes, yes, blame me."
Li Jing laughed.
He is a sensible person, and Liu Shi is also a sensible person.
Everyone knows who to blame this time.
Seeing that someone simply recognized him, Liu Shi looked him up and down with a smile, and said.
"I haven't seen you in a few months. You have really changed a lot. If you hadn't learned from my Silent Phantom, I wouldn't dare to recognize you."
As she spoke, she said with great interest.
"Your talent is really not something to brag about. You have entered the sixth realm in such a short period of time, and you have also learned my silent phantom. Unlike that girl Sisi, who has done so much homework with me before, she can't learn it by life or death. meeting."
Seeing Liu Shi holding her up and throwing Liu Sisi down, Li Jing smiled awkwardly.
The innate strong desire to survive told him that these words should not be taken carelessly.
Mo Ran chose to avoid this potentially "deadly" topic, and Li Jing took out the two Envy Pills he had exchanged for.
"Mom, this is a birthday gift I prepared for you, which contains..."
Before finishing speaking, Liu Shi tilted her head.
"Birthday gift, that's for older people, I look very old?"
"..."
Li Jing.
Liu Shi's thorns were so sharp that he didn't expect it.
he wondered.
Liu Shi is not young either!
Isn't this a birthday banquet?
Giving a gift at a birthday banquet can't be called a birthday gift?
But Liu Shi just chose.
It wasn't something she would do.
The mother-in-law's attitude is slightly subtle...
Feeling slightly startled and suspicious, Li Jing coughed and changed his words.
"This is my birthday present for you, mom. Inside are two jealousy pills that I got from an academician of the General Academy of Scientific Research."
A certain person consciously changed his words, Liu Shi showed a satisfied expression, took the brocade box and opened it to take a look.
"You are very wild now, and you can get everything from the General Research Institute. What are these two pills for?"
"Temporarily increase the strength of the physical body when crossing the catastrophe."
Li Jing responded, saying.
"Generally, it is to allow orthodox immortal practitioners to have the physical level of the realm corresponding to the big monster in a short period of time. Having this thing can ensure that you will survive the catastrophe in the future, Mom."
Liu Shi listened to someone's story about frowning slightly, and praised.
"nice one."
As she said that, she turned her hand and stuffed the thing back. ?
Li Jing.
"You keep it for yourself and save it for Sisi and Yuran in the future, I don't need this kind of thing."
Liu Shi smiled.
Receiving this response, Li Jing frowned.
Does Liu Shi's words imply that she is actually in the Seventh Realm or...?
Thinking about it, Li Jing was wrong again.
Why can Liu Shi say so naturally that he should keep the things and give them to Liu Sisi and Chen Yuran in the future?
this……
I'm afraid it's not that his wife is talking too much!
Li Jing didn't know how to feel about this.
Liu Sisi said a bit more, but it was not incomprehensible.
After all, there is nothing that cannot be discussed between mother and daughter.
And it is about Chen Yuran, if there is any development in the future, it will not only affect Liu Sisi, Liu Shi is also a related person.
It's okay to mention it.
It's more coquettish.
Look at Liu Shi's tone, it's an attitude of approval!
Li Jing was a little messy.
He and Chen Yuran didn't say anything at all, the old Chen's two elders wished that they had a baby in the same place, and now even her real mother-in-law recognized it.
What is this?
It stands to reason.
Even if you are in a wealthy family and you are used to such things, it should be difficult for someone like Liu Shi who is as humble as a parent to agree with this kind of thing.
Who doesn't want their daughters to live well?
It's fine for Chen Jing and Jiang Jingxian to agree. The two want to have a baby like crazy, and it's hard to have expectations for their own daughter. They have no room to be picky.
Liu Shi is here...
Being speechless, Liu Shi turned sideways.
"Okay, let's go in and talk. Sisi told me about your work in Baiying, and it will be hard for you to come here. That girl is still in bed, and I guess she won't get up before noon. We Let’s sit down and chat first, it’s time to prepare lunch in a while.”
"OK."
Li Jing nodded and put away the pill.
Liu Shi doesn't want this pill, he can't force it.
It must be said that Li Jing and Liu Shi's personalities are relatively similar.
Both are relatively low-key people and don't like trouble.
Two people with similar personalities naturally don't pay too much attention to getting along.
...
Entering the house with Liu Shi, and sat down under his hospitality, Li Jing looked around.
"Mom, where are my two friends who came to the capital with Sisi? Why can't my soul sense detect them, as if they are not in this house?"
"Why? Miss your two little foxes?"
Liu Shi didn't answer the question.
"..."
Li Jing.
Just now he felt that Liu Shi was particularly aggressive today.
Revisit the part that he thought was outrageous just now.
Li Jing found out.
The root cause lies in Liu Sisi's mouth.
Liu Shi didn't agree with it at all, or it was just lip service.
The tricky criticism of him from various angles is her own way of expressing her dissatisfaction.
this……
Feeling a little helpless and looking at Liu Shi with a smile on his face, Li Jing opened his mouth silently, not knowing how to respond.
The point is, he really shouldn't pick it up.
explain?
no point.
Tell Liu Shi not to be so childish?
He dare not.
Let Liu Shi be clear and straightforward, isn't this cheap?
At this moment, Liu Shi was indeed expressing her dissatisfaction.
But she just wasn't happy about it.
She knew about Chen Yuran's matter early in the morning.
Not to mention that Liu Sisi had mentioned it to her in the first place, after Li Jing and her visit to the capital, Jiang Jingxian also resumed contact with her.
It's just that Chen Yuran and Li Jing didn't see any progress at that time, so she just turned a blind eye, and she couldn't say anything.
What about Li Jing is his freedom.
Just because Liu Sisi followed her, Liu Shi can't just take care of this and that.
Now that Li Jing and Chen Yuran have suddenly made progress, Liu Shi is more or less worthless for her own daughter.
But in this regard, she can also see it.
she knows.
As young and promising as Li Jing, it is impossible to have only one in his life.
In a way, Li Jing has done a good job.
Just talk about today's birthday banquet.
Li Jing is here, and there will be wild bees, waves and butterflies from various families at the banquet.
A man who has made great achievements in a completely unknown great secret realm, and has entered the six realms at a young age can be said to have a bright future. Isn't this a big market in the capital?
As long as Li Jing is willing, how many people will turn their backs in order to get in touch with him?
This is the basic operation for two beautiful daughters.
Looking at Li Jing, who was seated opposite him, full of stomach ache, wanted to say something but didn't dare to say it, Liu Shi calmed down her dissatisfaction for the time being, and said calmly.
"Yu Lian and Jiuli are demons, and they explained to me when they met. There are many people coming to Liu's house today, and it is not suitable for her to hang out in this kind of occasion. It will be troublesome if someone finds out. They said hello and told them to come back late at night."
...
