Chapter 2611: Compare Skills
The beautiful woman shook her head and said: “You have to learn to restrain your temper. It’s one thing being at home, but you will get into trouble easily if you are always like this when you are outside.”
“Mother, I’m here to see Feng Jiu, I won’t speak more to you.” Xie Yutang said, then he turned to Feng Jiu: “You come out with me.” Having said that, he strode out.
Feng Jiu bowed to the beautiful woman, then followed Xie Yutang out. When he came outside, he saw that Xie Yutang had turned back and said in a low voice: “The Patriarch’s children have invited me to compare skills, come out with me and don’t let my parents know.”
Upon hearing this, Feng Jiu glanced at him. She took out a piece of paper and a brush pen and wrote that she had to go to the kitchen first.
“It’s not even time to eat yet, why do you need to go to the kitchen?” Xie Yutang frowned and said: “Alright, alright, just go! I’ll wait for you at the gate, hurry up.”
After Feng Jiu watched him leave, she walked to the kitchen. The beautiful woman said there was something in the kitchen to soothe her throat, so she would go and take a look first.
As she walked to the kitchen, the maids in the manor bent down and bowed to her as they respectfully called out Chief Steward. Yes, the beautiful woman had briefed the entire manor, she was the Chief Steward, and she was in charge of all things big and small in the manor.
In actual fact, she only took care of the affairs of the servants in the manor. As for the rest, the beautiful woman was in charge. She couldn’t understand why the beautiful woman valued her so much.
In her opinion, she had only presented herself as mediocre, there was nothing striking about her. On the contrary, it was the beautiful woman whom she was unable to see clearly.
On this side, she went to the kitchen while Xie Yutang was waiting outside for Feng Jiu at the gate. He looked back from time to time, but couldn’t see Feng Jiu’s figure. Finally, he got a little impatient and was about to send someone to go to the kitchen to take a look, when he saw the cyan figure coming outside.
“Hurry up, hurry up, everyone is waiting for you.” He beckoned and strode towards Patriarch Xie’s manor.
Feng Jiu followed him into the Patriarch’s manor to the martial arts training ground in the Patriarch’s manor. Before they got close, they saw more than a dozen young people the same age as Xie Yutang standing there. They were talking in groups of three to five, and when they saw Xie Yutang coming, they looked at him up and down and sized him up.
“Are you Xie Yutang, from the side concubine’s family who moved into the Southern Manor two days ago?” A teenager asked. His eyes swept up and down, then he said: “I thought you would be an outstanding young man, but you are just ordinary!”
“Who are you?” Xie Yutang frowned and stared at the young man in front of him in displeasure.
“My Grandfather is the Chief Elder of the Xie Family.” The boy raised his chin proudly.
“Oh? I wondered who you were. So you’re the grandson of the Chief Elder.” Xie Yutang said, not looking at him as he stepped forward and said: “Didn’t you say you want to compare skills? I’m here.”
The other teenagers looked at each other, one of them stepped forward with a smile: “Infighting is prohibited in our family, so while we compare our skills, we cannot hurt each other.”
“I understand.” Xie Yutang nodded.
“Yutang, everyone in our family is familiar with each other, it’s just you who’s only just arrived. The quickest way to get to know each other and get along with us men is to compare skills, so don’t blame us for getting to know you this way.” The teenager smiled gently and looked away from Xie Yutang, and looked at Feng Jiu.
