"Is Aunt Jun too tired?" said Xu's voice with concern. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Old Madam Xiao shook her head slowly.

In the final analysis, all of this can't earn a single life.

The Xiao family rose up due to the troubled times, reversed the fate that the family should have been destined for, and now it is being counterattacked, thinking about it, this is also fate.

Her heart swelled with deep sorrow, and she opened her eyes to look at Xu.

Xu sat quietly on the couch, the face that was no longer young, there was still a little bit of youthful beauty, which reminded Mrs. Xiao of the day when she first married into the Xiao family, she was wearing a black dress and a happy dress, blushing, and meeting her aunt in front of the hall.

However, no matter how good the time is, in the Xiao family, it is just borrowed.

Or maybe it's stolen.

At that moment, Old Madam Xiao's heart was extremely distressed.

She couldn't bear her children, but she couldn't save them.

This is the fate of their Xiao family.

At that moment, she looked at Xu's eyes full of compassion, like the Buddha statue enshrined in the hall.

They can't do anything, not even the most basic self-preservation.

Their Xiao family is like a fish stranded on the shore, and all the glory of today is just an illusion born after a long breath.

It's not that I haven't thought about resisting, it's not that I haven't looked for life, it's just that all of this is based on the kindness of the other party. And now, the other party's strength is getting stronger and stronger, but the Xiao family is declining day by day, like a rootless wanderer, clinging to others and relying on the snort of others.

With such a Xiao family, they can only see if God gives them a way to live.

"On the Qin family's side, what are you going to do?" asked Old Lady Xiao after a long time.

At this time, she had calmed down, her voice was light, and she couldn't hear any emotion.

Xu frowned: "I have to stay away from them." There was a bit of jealousy in her expression, "Qin Liuniang was sent back by Xue Erlang, if she still gets too close like before, if they find something, it will be a big risk to spread the news to the ears of the Xue family." His family is now in the period of filial piety, and it is good that it is slowly fading. Besides, now there is no one in their family, and there are many contacts, and they are also stained with copper smell. In the end, there was inevitably a bit of disdain in his tone.

Old Madam Xiao listened quietly and did not express her opinion on this, and after a while, she asked lightly: "A few months ago, you asked Xun'er to go to Lianyun Town, did the Qin family know about it?"

When Xu Shi heard this, he was slightly stunned, then his face turned pale, and he lowered his head and whispered: "Aunt Jun forgives me, this is my inconsiderate behavior, and I hurriedly sent Erlang to inquire about the news." Fortunately, Xue Yunheng is famous, and the Qin family only thinks that Erlang is admired, but no one asks. ”

At the end of September this year, Xiao Jixun went to Lianyun Town to find Xue Yunheng under the banner of admiring him, but he was in vain, but he had a romantic story with a beautiful little lady of the Shu clan, and there were a few rumors among the county sergeants.

At that time, the Xu family was so anxious that they didn't care about it, and they didn't report the matter to the two elders. Thinking about it at this time, she was indeed a little reckless, but fortunately, Xiao Jixun's affair was covered, but it did not arouse the suspicion of the scholars.

Old Madam Xiao lowered her eyes and looked at the rosary in her hand, her smooth fingers gently twisted a bead, and changed the topic: "What about ethnology?

Hearing this, Xu's face darkened, and he pulled up the corner of the Jinpa in his hand, and let out a long sigh: "What else can you do if it's not closed......?" It's a bit cramped, and if you want to support the genealogy, if it happens, you will ...... I can't move anything to dot things. ”

Her words were extremely vague, but they also pointed out the current situation of the Xiao family in terms of money, which was just overstretched.

They always need to have some extra money in case the Huan case is retried.

This should be the idea of the old head of the Xiao family, Xiao Yichuan.

“…… The husband and the lord also said that the clan study is a little conspicuous after all, so it is better to turn it off earlier. Xu continued, his voice still wistful: "Besides, there are also some children of the Han clan in this clan, and those people are always not very guarded, in case anyone causes trouble with the article, it will also be a trouble." The lord said that since it is closed, then there is no need to open it again. With that, she let out another long sigh.

Ethnology is a family's prosperity, and if it weren't for the Xiao family's involvement, they wouldn't want to close it.

"Fortunately, a few masters were left, and Ah Xun's learning will not be delayed. Xu Shi cheered up and said with a smile, as if he was afraid that Old Madam Xiao would worry, and comforted her: "Aunt Jun doesn't have to worry, the husband and the lord both said that this matter should be handled in this way." Our Xiao family still has to be more restrained now, and it is best not to attract attention. ”

Old Madam Xiao was still silent, only the compassion in her eyes flashed.

Whether it is convergence or publicity, the rise and fall of the Xiao family has nothing to do with it. Their future and destiny are not in their own hands, but in ...... In the hands of that man.

She closed her eyes tiredly.

"The old man is well. Outside the curtain, there was the sound of Xiao Yi's salute, but it was Xiao Yi's gradual return.

Xu hurriedly stood up and helped Mrs. Xiao to get up, and before the two of them stood still, they saw the brocade curtain open, and an old man with gray hair and strong spirits walked in with square steps.

"I've seen my lord. Xu bowed with his sleeves and spoke respectfully.

Xiao Yi gradually waved his hand, and a thick voice came: "No need to be polite." The son-in-law has worked hard today. As he spoke, he looked at Old Madam Xiao again, and his gaze became extremely gentle for a moment: "You have also worked hard." ”

Old Madam Xiao said "um" indifferently, and said nothing else.

Seeing this, the Xu family on the side stepped forward and said respectfully: "The concubine will retire first." ”

At this time, Xiao Yigradually obviously had something to say to Mrs. Xiao, but it was not good for her daughter-in-law to stay here.

Xu left quickly, but the old couple in the room did not speak for a long time.

The candle flame reflected the warm yellow light, and the bronze incense burner of the Rui beast in the corner burned the incense, and the wisps of ice and cold incense were scattered around, if the mountains were far away, and the midnight ice wheel would be warm and soft in that room, and it was also washed into the dust under the moon, and the indescribable cold silence and solemnity.

Xiao Yi gradually sighed, looked at the old wife on the side, but saw that the old lady Xiao even closed her eyes, as if she didn't want to look at him at all.

"You...... Still complaining about me?" Xiao Yiji's voice rang out, with a hint of bitterness in his deep voice.

Old Madam Xiao was silent, but her eyes were still closed persistently.

Xiao Yijian sighed again: "It's helpless to shut down the clan study, I ......"

Before he finished speaking, Old Madam Xiao suddenly opened her eyes and said coldly: "You are making a false statement, just to make your children and grandchildren think that things can still turn around, and the Xiao family is not certain to die." But?"

The voice is cold, like a cold wind outside the window blowing in the ears, which makes people feel cold in the bottom of their hearts. (To be continued.) )
