Chapter 6 The Girl from the Jin Family

Chapter 6 The Girl from the Jin Family

In the center of the huge square, the seats and fruit tables prepared for the nobles of the aristocratic families have been placed.

The crowd suddenly made a way, and a guard shouted loudly: "The young master of the Bai family, Bai Fanyu, and the young master Bai Xiuyu are here!"

There were dozens of people from the Bai family, led by a handsome young man in white, who was Bai Fanyu, the young head of the Bai family.

"Brother Yu, if you can't welcome him from far away, it's because I didn't take good care of you."

Xu Xiao had just led dozens of people from the Xu family's head family and branch families to worship Xu Kunyu, the ancestor of the Xu family, and walked down from the Taoist altar of the ancestors of the Xu family and greeted him.

Bai Fanyu smiled and said: "It's okay, Brother Xu, you are busy with work, we can just take care of ourselves."

"Thank you, Brother Yu, for your understanding."

Xu Xiao looked at the boy who was half a step behind Bai Fanyu and said, "This must be Xiuyu. He is indeed a heroic boy." Bai Xiuyu looked arrogant. When Xu Xiao praised him, he put away his pride slightly and raised his hands.

"Brother Xu, don't worry about Quanzi's lack of etiquette." Bai Fanyu glanced at Bai Xiuyu and said with a wry smile to Xu Xiao.

"No problem, no problem, geniuses always have a temper."

Bai Xiuyu, the eldest son of Bai Fanyu, is eleven years old.

Three years ago, the fifth-grade Dao pulse was detected during the Bai family's pulse measurement ceremony, which shocked the entire Ruyang County. Now he is in the middle stage of acquired martial arts, and his martial arts progress is staggeringly fast, and he is even better than those acquired warriors who have been practicing for many years.

The Bai family's "Barbarian Bull Martial Arts" has been practiced to the third level by him, which has the power of three bulls. The cow being compared here is not a domestic cow, but a rhinoceros with great strength.

If a warrior has not entered the extraordinary innate realm, his strength is not clearly divided. It can be roughly divided into entry level, middle stage and late stage. The combat power of acquired warriors mainly comes from the martial arts they have practiced.

The higher the level of martial arts, the stronger the combat power; the more sophisticated the martial arts skills are, the more powerful one can be against ten.

The masters and servants of the Bai family took their seats one by one. Xu Yan and Xu Chen, the Xu family's separate families, are Xu Xiao's younger brothers. At this moment, they are also helping to manage the affairs and welcome the guests.

The two big families, the Guo family and the Jin family, as well as small aristocratic families such as the Liu family and the Zuo family, arrived one after another and took their seats one after another.

The entire square has been divided into layers. In the center is the tall Taoist statue, and in the huge open space in the center is the Wubao Pulse Measuring Platform.

Surrounded by people from the three major families of Ruyang came to watch the ceremony, the Xu family had the largest number of people at the head seat.

There are five members of the Xu family who are suitable for pulse measurement, namely Xu Disheng, Xu Xuan, Xu Qian, Xu Yufeng and Xu Ziyu.

There are two people in the separate family, a boy named Xu Zhi, and a little boy named Xu Zhi.

Girl, Xu Qingcheng.

The second son of the Jin family, Jin Qingdi, was now the young head of the Jin family. He glanced at Xu Xiao, turned around and gave some instructions to the servants around him.

The servant stood up, walked to Xu Xiao, clasped his fists in salute, and then whispered something.

When Xu Xiao heard this, he looked towards Jin Qingdi and nodded slightly.

Jin Qingdi looked back and smiled at a little girl in red beside him: "Yu'er, you are already eight years old this year, but you didn't catch up with the Jin family's last pulse test. This time, you will take the pulse with the Xu family's children and go there first. Bar."

Jin Yu'er is wearing a red dress and two ponytails. She has delicate eyebrows, red lips and white teeth. She is really good-looking.

Hearing this, he said crisply: "Yes, Father." Then he stood up generously and walked towards the children of the Xu family.

This happens often.

In every family, there are always some children who have not caught up with the pulse test or whose age is just right and they can only wait for the next pulse test.

Because the pulse measuring platform unified by Da Chu can only measure people between the ages of five and ten, it can tell your true bone age.

If you are more than four years old when you take your pulse this time, you cannot take your pulse.

However, it would be too late to wait until the age of nine or ten before taking the pulse test, so these children who missed the age would take the opportunity to take the pulse test with other families when they were attending ceremonies.

The Guo family in Zhijun was not included in this list. The pulse measuring platform was kept by the Guo family in Ruyang. Naturally, they could take the pulse test whenever they wanted, without such restrictions.

Xu Xiao's eldest son, Xu Fu, had his pulse measured in advance at the Guo family. However, there is no rule without rules. No one would deliberately break these subtle rules on weekdays.

Jin Yu'er has bright eyes and is beautiful. When she walked towards the children of the Xu family, many little boys were too shy to look at her.

But she was bold. She walked up to Xu Yan and said crisply: "Uncle Shi, where should I wait?"

Xu Yan and Xu Chen are both Xu Xiao's clan brothers, and two counties were entrusted to them. Today, they came back early for the Xu family's pulse measurement ceremony to help Prime Minister Xu Xiao with his affairs.

Xu Yan touched Jin Yu'er's head and said with a smile: "Yu'er, just find a seat here and sit down."

Jin Yu'er responded sweetly and walked to the seats where the children of the Xu family were sitting. At this time, Xu Xuan, Xu Qian and Xu Disheng were the only children among Xu Xiao's children. They were in the most central circle of the Xu family's children.

Jin Yu'er walked among them, looked at the people with wide eyes, and said crisply: "Can I sit here?"

She was referring to the seat next to Xu Qian.

Xu Qian is seven years old and has a handsome face.

He is the second son of the Zhang family. Although he is the son of a merchant, he has a measured approach and retreat.

Hearing this, he stretched out his arms in a gesture of invitation and said with a smile, "Yes."

The Xu Xuan next to her was the daughter of the Sun family. Although she was a commoner, she usually saw some beautiful maids, but this was the first time she saw such a beautiful little girl of the same age. Her face turned red and she lowered her head and did not dare to speak.

Jin Yu'er didn't pay attention, but talked to Xu Qian for a while, and looked at Xu Disheng with a pair of big black and white eyes.

This child was wearing dark clothes and was sitting there, not talking to anyone.

She was a little strange and asked Xu Qian: "Who is he?"

Xu Qian glanced at Xu Disheng and said softly: "Xu Disheng is my eleventh brother. He is a weirdo."

Jin Qingzhao and Jin Yu are closer. Although they are both brothers, Jin Qingzhao is busy with family affairs and rarely gets close to Jin Yu.

Moreover, the Xu family and the Jin family are often married, and there are too many relatives. After all, Jin Yu'er is actually Xu Disheng's cousin.

Xu Disheng is indeed a bit strange in the eyes of the Xu family children. In the past five years, he has almost never gone out, and he almost never takes the initiative to talk to anyone. Even when he talks to others, he is extremely concise and never says much.

Therefore, except for a few close relatives, Xu Disheng has never had any sense of existence among the huge kinship groups such as the Xu family and the Jin family.

"However, he is so good-looking." Jin Yu'er murmured secretly in her heart.

After looking at Xu Disheng a few more times, I saw the boy sitting with his black eyes calm. He didn't know what he was thinking, but he had never looked at him, so he couldn't help but feel a little angry.

Her beauty since childhood has been the center of everyone's attention wherever she goes. At this moment, Xu Disheng just didn't look at her, which made her a little unhappy.

Eight-year-old Xu Yufeng and Xu Ziyu also walked in one after another. Xu Ziyu was also eight years old. Although he was pretty, he was from the Sun family, a commoner. He lacked the grace and grace of a big family. At this moment, he was directly compared to Jin Yu'er. Go down.

When Xu Yufeng saw Jin Yu'er, he was a little surprised by her beauty, but after all, he came from a small aristocratic family. He was only surprised for a moment and then regained his composure.

Turning to Xu Qian, he said: "Brother Qian, I just went down there to take a look. There are many people with potential in this pulse test."

It turned out that he had just arrived a moment late to observe the children taking pulses so that he could recruit them for his own use. Furthermore, he had already asked his attendants to write down several children who might have eighth-level pulses.

The one who made the biggest move was Xu Fu. Xu Fu's sixth-grade talent was already considered top-notch among the Xu family. As the eldest son, he had won over a large number of people from the main family and branch families of the Xu family over the years.
