Madam, protect me!

The carriage drove along a wide street for about two quarters of an hour and stopped in front of a house.

The old lady's birthday banquet is over and it will be very late. For safety reasons, Li Nuo will stay at the Song Mansion for one night. Butler Wu will send them to the Song Mansion and go back. He will pick him up early tomorrow morning.

The sixtieth birthday was the most important birthday for the ancients. Even ordinary people would make a big deal about it, let alone a powerful family.

This was not Li Nuo's first visit to the Song family. Butler Wu said that his father had brought him here once before the two got married, but that was another Li Nuo's experience.

The entire residence of the Song Mansion was hung with red lanterns symbolizing celebration, and carriages and sedan chairs were parked on both sides of the wide streets. In front of the gate, some luxuriously dressed guests were queuing up to enter the residence.

At the door, an old man smiled and said to Song Jiaren: "The girl is back. The eldest lady has also arrived just now. She is looking for you everywhere. Come in quickly..."

On the way here, Li Nuo learned a little about the situation of the Song family. The "eldest lady" mentioned by the servants of the Song family should be Song Jiaren's aunt. She is also the only woman in the second generation of the Song family. She has been married for many years. , the old lady of the Song family had five children, and her wife was born to the old lady’s third son.

Unlike the Li family, which is a single generation, the Song family can be said to be a big family with a large family and descendants.

After the two walked into the Song Mansion, there was a burst of discussion among the guests lining up at the door.

"That one must be the daughter of Mr. Song Zhe Song. She is truly beautiful and fragrant. She is worthy of the name of a beauty."

"Not only is she beautiful, but she has reached the fourth level of cultivation at a young age, and her path to martial arts is limitless."

"It's a pity that such an outstanding Phoenix girl actually married a fool..."

"Hush, be careful what you say, be careful what you say..."

"What are you afraid of? I am a military attache, but I am not afraid of Li Xuanjing..."

…

Inside the Song Mansion, it was even more lively than outside.

The courtyard just after entering the gate is filled with various kinds of longevity banners and longevity screens.

On these curtains and screens, birthday greetings such as "Blessed as the East Sea", "Shoubi Nanshan", "Sun and Moon Prosperous", "Songs and Cranes Everlasting" are written.

The birthday banquet had not officially started yet, and the guests were scattered throughout the Song Mansion, gathering together in twos and threes, talking and laughing. Li Nuo didn't know anyone, so he could only follow Song Jiaren step by step.

Song Jiaren took Li Nuo to a table in the courtyard and said, "I'm going to see my aunt. You stay here first and don't run around. We'll go to visit my grandmother together later."

Li Nuo nodded, watched her leave, picked up a piece of pastry on the table and put it into his mouth.

Before the birthday banquet began, fruit cakes were placed everywhere in the Song family for guests to taste.

He didn't know anyone in the Song Mansion. Li Nuo was leaning on the table boredly. He actually didn't like the excitement. In the evening, he preferred to stay at home reading or sleeping, but the wife's grandmother was celebrating her sixtieth birthday. It would be disrespectful for a junior not to come.

He had just picked up the second piece of pastry when a crisp sound suddenly came from his ears.

"Oh, I've been looking for you for a long time, and you're here!"

Li Nuo looked in the direction where the sound came from, and saw a beautiful little girl looking at him with surprise on her face.

The little girl was six or seven years old, and she was pretty and cute. When she looked at Li Nuo and smiled, she showed two cute little tiger teeth.

However, Li Nuo looked confused. Did he know anyone in the Song family?

Seeing Li Nuo's expression, she knew that he didn't recognize her. The little girl looked disappointed, pursed her lips, and said, "You don't remember who I am? You forgot, the last time you came to my house, I was Have you eaten some biscuits?"

The little girl said "my family", which means that she is from the Song family and should be the owner. She may be the child of one of the lady's uncles.

The little girl sighed and said, "If you forget, just forget it. I'll tell you again, my name is Song Mu'er. You have to remember this time, or I won't play with you in the future!"

It seemed that Li Nuo not only knew this little girl before, but also knew them very well, but he couldn't remember what happened before.

The little girl named Song Muer took the initiative to hold Li Nuo's hand and said, "Let's go play shuttlecock..."

Song Muer liked this big brother she had only met once, not only because he was good-looking, but also because he was the only one who could play house, play shuttlecock, and help her with her homework. people.

Her brothers at home never wanted to play house with her.

Although he did all the homework wrong, causing her to be slapped by her husband, he forgave him because she was willing to play house with her.

Although the little girl is more than ten years older than Li Nuo, she gets along with him very naturally.

Li Nuo wasn't surprised when he thought about it. Although his predecessor was already eighteen years old, his IQ might not be as good as that of an eight-year-old child. He could just play with this little girl who looked only six or seven years old.

Li Nuo did not follow the little girl, but said apologetically: "Not today, I have to visit my grandmother later."

The little girl held his arm, shook it gently, and said, "Just play for a little while, okay..."

With such a cute little girl holding his arm and acting coquettishly, Li Nuo really couldn't bear to say no, but he was also worried that his wife would not be able to find him when she came back later, so he said: "I can play with you, but I can't. Going too far..."

The little girl pointed to an open space not far away and said, "Let's go there!"

Li Nuo turned his head and took a look. The open space was only a dozen meters away from here. He kept an eye on this place and should not make mistakes.

The little girl led Li Nuo and hopped to the open space, then took out a finely crafted shuttlecock from the small bag she carried with her, and said to Li Nuo: "Just like last time, I'll throw the shuttlecock to you, you kick it back to me, and I'll kick it back..."

Although it was already night, the entire Song Mansion was lit up with countless lanterns, making it as bright as day. The little girl threw the shuttlecock over, and Li Nuo kicked it back gently.

When the shuttlecock flew over, Song Muer did not rush to kick it over, but deftly turned sideways. When the shuttlecock flew over her and was about to fall to the ground, she gently raised her foot and touched it with the sole of her foot. The shuttlecock immediately changed direction, drew a beautiful arc in the air, and flew towards Li Nuo again.

Looking at the flying shuttlecock, Li Nuo suddenly had a strange feeling in his heart.

Then, the little girl on the opposite side opened her mouth in surprise.

The shuttlecock was seen circling and flying in the air with the movements of the big brother on the opposite side, but it never fell to the ground. Every movement of his shuttlecock kicking was so graceful and elegant, and he was able to control it freely. Some of his techniques were even the first time she had seen them.

Li Nuo was also a little surprised at this moment. When the shuttlecock flew over, he had a feeling that everything was under control.

And this extremely difficult and magical fancy shuttlecock kicking technique, he himself would not be able to do it, and his predecessor would probably not be able to do it either. The reason is obvious. Among the four pages of portraits in the Code, only the page of Zheng Yuanwai's concubine is lit. Could it be that her specialty is shuttlecock kicking?

Women in this era did not have many entertainment activities. Cuju and shuttlecock were the most common. Whether it was a rich girl or a young lady from a small family, they could all kick a few hands.

However, kicking the shuttlecock can light up the code. This woman is really something...

After playing for a while, Li Nuo kicked the shuttlecock again, but Song Muer was so busy watching Li Nuo kick that she forgot to catch it for a moment, and the shuttlecock fell on the ground behind her.

Before she could pick up the shuttlecock, several voices suddenly came from the side.

"Hey, isn't this the idiot from the Li family?"

"He's here tonight, too."

"It's the old lady's birthday party, why is he here to join in the fun? Isn't he afraid of making a fool of himself..."

Three young men came over, one of them picked up a piece of candy from the table, walked up to Li Nuo, and said jokingly: "Little idiot, learn to bark for us, if you learn well, I'll give you candy..."

Li Nuo looked at him and asked: "How does a dog bark?"

"I just learned it last time, and you forgot it so quickly. You're really a fool." The young man shook his head and said without thinking much, "Woof woof..."

"Bark twice more."

"Woof woof, woof woof..."

"Bark a few more times."

"Woof woof, woof woof, woof woof..."

Li Nuo reached out his hand, gently stroked his head, and smiled: "So good..."

Many guests in the courtyard heard the sound and looked over. They didn't know what was wrong with the young master of the Song family. Why did he learn to bark for no reason?

The young man whose head was gently stroked by Li Nuo finally realized what happened after he came to his senses. He immediately showed a look of shame and anger on his face and said angrily: "Little fool, you dare to play tricks on me?"

If it were someone else, he would definitely not learn to bark like a dog, but who would guard against a fool?

In shame and anger, he reached out to grab Li Nuo's collar, but at this moment, a small figure blocked Li Nuo.

Song Muer stretched out both hands to stop him and said crisply: "Brother Yu, you can't bully him..."

Song Yu was very angry about the situation of his family's elbows turning outward, and said: "Muer, get out of the way, I want to teach this fool a lesson!"

Song Muer clenched his little fist and said: "If you bully him, I will beat you..."

Song Yu trembled when he heard this, and immediately stepped back vigilantly.

Although Mu'er is only six years old, he has reached the second level of martial arts. He has been practicing with a beautiful woman since he was two years old. Now he has developed his inner breath. The child did not know how to use his strength. He was hit by her little fist and several bones were broken.

"Little fool, you wait!" After saying a harsh word to Li Nuo, he and the two people behind him left in disgrace.

Li Nuo watched them walk away and thought that he didn't seem to be very welcome in the Song family.

But think about it, if he was a member of the Song family, he probably wouldn't have a good face for the fool who married the family's proud daughter.

At this time, Song Mu'er picked up the shuttlecock, patted her chest, and said to Li Nuo: "Brother Li Nuo, don't be afraid, I will protect you and won't let them bully you..."

Thank you for the reward from the leader of "regardless of care and carelessness". The big guy is the leader of several books. Thank you very much
