Dou Po: My days as a mentor at Canaan College

Chapter 158 Dinner
In the courtyard.

Watching Xiao Yue gradually disappear from sight, Liu Xi stepped forward and closed the courtyard door.

He was more concerned about the improvement of Xiao Yue's strength, otherwise he wouldn't have the cheek to ask Xiao Yan for the Foundation Establishment Spiritual Liquid.

Part of the reason, of course, is understandable, the earlier Xiao Yue's strength level was raised, he could also get the unknown random reward issued by the system earlier.

But having said that, after this period of getting along, Xiao Yue's strength has improved. In addition to the benefits that the system can bring to him, he also hopes from the bottom of his heart that Xiao Yue can change his own situation through continuous improvement.

Looking up at the sky, I found that I was communicating with Xiao Yue, and before I knew it, it was dusk.

He didn't forget that there was a dinner party that Xiao Zhan asked him to go to in the evening, so he went to the bathroom by the side of the house, and took a refreshing cold shower in the hot summer.

Then he changed into a light-colored shirt and walked out of the house. The sky outside had already dimmed.

Outside the courtyard, two maidservants from the Xiao family waited for him at the gate of the courtyard.

"Let's go, thank you two for leading the way."

Liu Xi walked up to the two maidservants with his hands behind his back, and said with a warm smile on his face.

"Your Majesty Liu Xi, you are being polite. These are the duties of the servants. It is an honor for the servants to lead the way for you."

The two maidservants were eloquent and eloquent, they were very good at talking, and they were also pretty. It was obvious that the Xiao family spent some energy on training them, and they usually received distinguished guests from outside at banquets.

Stepping out of the other courtyard, the two maidservants accompanied him, one on the left and the other on the right.

"Didn't you lead the way, you go ahead, I don't pay that much attention."

Liu Xi raised his chin slightly forward.

Hearing this, the two maidservants looked at each other, then bowed their heads in response, but only one of them stepped forward, and the other was still by Liu Xi's side.

Liu Xi didn't need to be particular, because he was an honored guest, and his status as a pharmacist was there, so he could say and do whatever he wanted.

But they can't, the hierarchy is strict, and they have to follow the rules in everything.

Of the two of them, one of them walked in front of Liu Xi, and it could be said that it was really for the convenience of leading the way, but both of them walked in front of Liu Xi, and one of them was followed by no one, so it would be a mess!

That kind of situation, you just look at it, you will feel a little weird.

If you don't know, you may think that they are deliberately ignoring the distinguished guests, wondering if the host is trying to use this to convey some message? !

see.

Liu Xi glanced at the two maidservants, but said nothing.

In this dou qi continent with strict hierarchy and hierarchy, people in this world have their own set of rules of life that they follow.

With his ability, he naturally didn't think about influencing or changing anything.

When he came to this world, he just "do as the Romans do".

Moreover, in other words, he is not so great and selfless. As a pharmacist, he can be regarded as a member of the "upper class" in this world.

Status, the various privileges, benefits, and enjoyments it brings, isn’t it delicious?
Why do you want to change?

What's more, some essential things can't be changed at all!
……

The dinner was held in a magnificent building behind the Xiao family's family square.

The distance was not too far, and within half a stick of incense, Liu Xi, led by two maidservants, came to this magnificently decorated three-story building.

"Master Liu Xi, this is the place."

The two maidservants bowed slightly.

Seeing this, Liu Xi's eyes flickered slightly, and said:
"Aren't you two coming in with me?"

"Not Mrs. Liu Xi, the maidservants and servants have other tasks, and there are other people in the building who are in charge of the reception. You just need to go in with confidence."

One of the slightly more mature maidservants replied.

Hearing this, Liu Xi pouted.

Well, these two little maidservants who seem to be pretty good in every aspect are not serving him the whole time!

What does this mean "there are other tasks", I am afraid that I went to other places to pick up some other guests.

The Xiao family is somewhat petty..., Liu Xi secretly thought.

However, what he didn't know was that in the entire Xiao family, there were less than a handful of beauties who made him feel "not bad" after seeing them.

As for today's dinner, the Xiao family apparently hosted all the prominent figures in Wutan City... Ahem, including people from the Jialie family and the Auba family...

Even if some people received invitations, it was another matter whether they came or not.

But even so, there are not a few distinguished guests who need to be received.

Under such circumstances, the fact that the Xiao family was able to send two maidservants of such "quality" to take him here at one time showed how much they valued him.

Going straight into the building, it was indeed as the two maids said, before stepping in, there were maids in thin spruce who greeted him, and there were five, six, seven or eight of them, surrounding him In the middle, exceptionally enthusiastic.

The fragrant wind from the tip of the nose was lingering, Liu Xi coughed lightly with no expression on his face, and sent a few back, leaving only one person by his side in the end.

"Well, why do you all seem to know me?"

Stretching out his hand to touch his itchy nose filled with the rich aroma just now, Liu Xi asked casually.

"Lord Liu Xi, for an important person like you, we have a portrait in hand beforehand, and we have specially remembered it."

The maid beside her knew everything.

Liu Xi nodded, then looked around at the first floor of the huge building.

I saw that in this building, there were no seats, only rows of five-foot-high platforms intertwined with each other for drinks, melons and fruits.

And these were mostly ordinary guests, and some Xiao family members of ordinary status were walking and communicating. Liu Xi looked at it, but didn't see any familiar acquaintances.

"My lord, the patriarch and the important guests are on the third floor. Do you need to go up directly, my lord?"

The maid asked just in time.

"No, let's go to the second floor first."

After pondering for a while, Liu Xi waved his hands.

"Then my lord, please..."

……

After a while, the second floor of the building.

This place is obviously different from the first floor. First of all, there are evenly distributed carved low tables on both sides. One or two people can sit behind each low table, and cups and dishes are prepared early on the table, waiting for people to take their seats.

Secondly, in the center of the second floor is a half-foot-high arc-shaped platform, which is so huge that it has a radius of nearly ten feet.

As for its function, it is not difficult to imagine, it can make people ride on it, or compete, or dance...etc.

Standing in the corridor, before stepping in, Liu Xi looked into the distance.

It is not difficult to see that the people staying on this floor are quite different from those downstairs, their temperament and clothing are all higher.

Suddenly, in his eyes, two beauties with extremely beautiful appearance and top-notch appearance appeared.
