Rebirth of the Giants: The Return of the Devil's Daughter

The capital is a place of crouching tigers, hidden dragons. An old man who casually walks on the street may transform into the head of a certain military region in an instant, and an old lady crossing the road may surprise you with her true identity. eyeballs.

It is like this that in the capital city with infinite possibilities, in addition to the famous families known to everyone on the surface, there are also some invisible wealthy families. Except for the famous families in Beijing, this kind of family is not as famous as the famous family in Beijing, but its heritage and inheritance are not comparable to some. The well-known wealthy families are worse, even worse.

The Zhong family is one of these invisible aristocratic families, and the host of the banquet, Zhong Yitian, although he is not as famous as his grandfather, his status and influence in the literary world cannot be underestimated. Surprisingly, compared to his grandfather who is famous for his teaching and has many peaches and plums all over the world, he is more pragmatic, and his research results can often show the splendid culture of a certain period of ancient times in front of people.

Grandpa, inside and out, he admires Zhong Yitian very much.

The Zhong family's birthday banquet was held in a manor. Wen Xinya handed the invitation to the doorman, who immediately bent down to invite her into the manor.

On the lintel at the entrance of the manor is a lacquer-carved plaque with the words "Dexin Liufang" written on it. It is deeper than Si Yiyan's pen and ink.

There is a long table at the door, and the guests who enter will leave their names and birthday gifts on the table. Beside the table sits a young man of about eighteen or nineteen years old, wearing a black suit and white shirt, and wearing a black suit. Wearing a collar flower, one can tell at a glance that she is a junior of the Zhong family.

Wen Xinya walked over.

When the young man saw her, he had a decent smile on his face: "Guests, please leave a congratulatory gift and write down your name somewhere."

Wen Xinya nodded, smiled and handed the birthday gift to the young man, then took the brush on the case and dipped it in ink, and wrote her name on the snow-white strip of rice paper.

As her fruitful name in willow script jumped on the paper, she sensitively felt that the young man looked at her twice more.

Wen Xinya smiled faintly at him, turned and walked into the banquet hall.

But what she didn't know was that her faint smile was like Xiuya Qionghua, and the branches were covered with jade flowers, with pure and innocent beauty, so that the man couldn't help but follow her back until she disappeared. at the corner.

The banquet hall is elegantly and elegantly arranged, with densely packed small palace lanterns all around the walls, and a huge white emerald gilded silk gauze five-bat birthday palace lantern hanging on the high roof, imitating the exquisite craftsmanship of the Ming and Qing Dynasties. , the bats on the five corners are exquisitely and meticulously carved, and the ten eyes of the five bats are all luminous pearls of equal size. The bats hold crystal tassels polished in their mouths. It shines brightly.

Wen Xinya saw at a glance the old man of the Zhong family, who was chatting and laughing with the guests. He was wearing a chestnut red regimental birthday suit. His hair was cut very short, and his whole body revealed a spirited and refreshing air.

Wen Xinya walked over slowly and calmly: "Hello, Grandpa Zhong, I am Wen Xinya, grandpa has something to do and can't come to your birthday banquet today, so I specially asked me to come here and give you a congratulatory gift. bounty happiness."

Hearing Wen Xinya's self-introduction, everyone looked at her secretly. During this time, Mo Gong often took his granddaughter to walk around in the circle. Who is not like a mirror in his heart, which means that Mo Gong recognized this granddaughter.

It's just that Mo Gong didn't expect his granddaughter to attend Mr. Zhong's banquet and present him with congratulatory gifts, which shows how much Mo Gong attaches importance to her.

"He hasn't come to my birthday banquet for many years, and he actually found a spokesperson for himself this year, hahahaha! Not bad." Zhong Yitian's eyes fell on Wen Xinya's face, which was different from those people's cryptic Looking at him, his eyes are much more straightforward and natural.

The Wen family has found the real eldest lady. This matter has been spread in the circle for a long time, and he naturally knows about it, but he heard that she was a little girl who wandered around the streets for 15 years, and I still feel sorry for Mr. Mo. After thinking about it for a while, but at this time, I saw that she has an elegant temperament, every move is full of atmosphere, every word and every word is calm and calm, her quiet eyes are clear and bright, she looks like a good girl with a righteous mind, and she has faintly revealed Mo Yatou. The demeanor of her youth was just those quiet eyes, revealing a kind of tenacity and calculation, which Mo Yatou did not have.

Wen Xinya just smiled faintly and didn't answer.

Zhong Yitian happily called a junior over: "Bring me the jade tube brush in my study."

The younger generation was astonished, the jade tube pen brush was an ancient relic from the late Qing Dynasty, it was very valuable, it was a rare fine brush, and grandpa always cherished it very much.

Zhong Yitian looked at Wen Xinya lovingly: "I heard from your grandfather that you are learning willow style. The jade tube has both soft and hard brushes, but learning willow style complements each other."

Seeing the surprised expression of the younger generation, Wen Xinya knew that this gift was not light, and quickly smiled and said: "Thank you, Grandpa Zhong, but today you are the birthday star, and only our younger generation can present you with a gift. How can you give it to me?" If the juniors are polite when they meet, my grandfather will definitely say that I don't understand etiquette when I go back."

Zhong Yitian laughed more and more happily: "For so many years, only your grandfather has given the meeting gifts to my boys, and finally I have the opportunity to give his juniors a meeting gift. This gift... must be given!"

From Grandpa Zhong's words, Wen Xinya knew that he and grandpa had a good relationship, seeing that the gift couldn't be rejected, she simply agreed generously: "Thank you, Grandpa Zhong, if grandpa says that I don't know how to be polite, you can speak for me!"

In this way, neither humble nor overbearing, revealing a kind of intimacy, which made Zhong Yitian more satisfied with her: "I collected this pen in my early years, and many younger generations in my family were reluctant to give it away. I didn't expect this pen to be prepared for you. "

Wen Xinya couldn't help but blame and said: "Grandpa Zhong said that it seems that I have been thinking about your jade tube all morning."

The Zhong family can be regarded as thriving, but for several generations of the Zhong family, the yang was flourishing and the yin was declining. In this generation, there is not even a single girl. Zhong Yitian looked at Wen Xinya and liked it from the bottom of his heart: "Say Whether you are thinking about it or not, things are naturally destined to be given to someone who is destined, and as soon as I see you, I feel that I am destined, so if I don’t give it to you, I will give it to someone else.”

Wen Xinya found that Grandpa Zhong has a very bright and cheerful personality, no wonder grandpa attaches great importance to it: "I heard from my grandfather that you, Grandpa Zhong, show the essence of your handwriting in willow script, and the plaque [Dexin Liufang] at the entrance must be from Grandpa Zhong !"

Zhong Yitian didn't expect that she would notice this, and became more and more satisfied with her: "It's just a random writing, and the younger generation framed it and hung it on the lintel."
