Chapter 55: The Xia Family Shrouded in Night

"Nearly half of the stock of medicinal materials in the family warehouse is going to be taken away at once, what the hell is the little rabbit doing here?"

Xia Ya stood in front of the window of his study with his hands behind his back, looked at the night that had been fluttering outside the window, and frowned and asked.

Steward Zhou stood behind Xia Ya with his hands down, and replied to Xia Ya's inquiry: "It should be used to refine medicine, as for the specific medicine to be refined, it is unknown." However, the young master's level of alchemy and talent are the only ones I have ever seen in my life, and I am very sure of this. ”

"Uncle Zhou, it's not that I don't believe you, it's really that you said that the little rabbit cub is an alchemist...... It's a bit unbelievable. There are only three alchemists in the entire Qingyang City, you know that. Except for the City Lord's Mansion, those three alchemists didn't sell anyone's face at all. That little rabbit cub has been fighting in Qingyang City for more than ten years since he was born, if he is really an alchemist, who did he learn from? ”

Xia Ya's brows furrowed even deeper, obviously this matter made him really a little puzzled.

"I don't know the specific situation, but there is no doubt that the second young master is an alchemist. Head of House...... Actually, I think ...... When dealing with something, we may not need to get to the bottom of it......"

After Steward Zhou pondered, he said carefully with his words.

"What do you mean?"

Xia Ya turned around, looked at Steward Zhou and asked.

"Everyone has some secrets that belong to them, and even in front of those closest to them, many secrets cannot be revealed. In my opinion, no matter how much the second young master conceals that we can't figure out, it doesn't really matter. Because the second young master ...... After all, his surname is Xia. ”

Steward Zhou bowed slightly.

Xia Ya stared at Steward Zhou for a while, and after a long time, he nodded slowly, his frowning brows were also relaxed, and he smiled self-deprecatingly: "You're right, I'm just used to his previous bastard habits, so that I always have instinctive doubts about his changes in the past few days, which is not right." Forget it, he can do whatever he likes, we just need to provide him with enough support, this little rabbit cub is so precocious, not to mention anything else, just with the mind of years of forbearance, the future is unlimited, our Qingyang City Xia family, will definitely not be able to trap him. ”

"The head of the house is wise."

Steward Zhou bowed down and smiled.

"Wise fart! After being the head of the family for so many years, I have always been proud of my control of the family, but I never thought that in the end, I didn't even see through my own son. When I think of the past days, every time because of his incomparably painful feelings, the roots of my teeth itch with hatred! ”

Xia Ya said angrily.

"The second young master is forced to put it bluntly, in the final analysis, you are also responsible."

Steward Zhou said with a smile.

"Ahem, it's difficult for a good head of the family to be a good father at the same time, so don't mention it."

Listening to Steward Zhou's words, Xia Ya was a little embarrassed for a while, waved his hand, turned around and looked at the bright moon hanging in the sky outside the window, and said, "What do you think about today's application for a duel between Xia Yuan and Xia Fan?" ”

"The Council of Elders is becoming more and more unscrupulous, the Great Elder's side...... There should be some caveats. ”

"Let's start with the Third Elder, it seems that the Medicine Ding that I bought a long time ago has attracted all the attention of the Liu family. In the past few days, I have asked to transfer Yao Ding from Elder Wu Fearless to the Third Elder's care. The Great Elder has been in business for a long time, and the relationship within the family is intertwined, and it takes a step by step to reorganize the Presbyterian Church. As for Elder Fearless, I also talked to him about this matter in detail today. ”

Xia Ya's tone was a little heavy.

"But if you do this, it will cause a lot of weakening to the strength of the family."

Steward Zhou said with some hesitation.

"I can't take care of these things for the time being, over the years, due to the restrictions of the Council of Elders, the development of the family has always stopped, and the Liu family has been eyeing us, and no one can be sure what the one in the City Lord's Mansion thinks. I always have a feeling that the mountain rain is about to come and the wind is full of buildings, and it is definitely not possible to continue to spend time like this. Serious illness is a fierce medicine, no matter what kind of wind and waves will occur, it is a necessary premise for the family to maintain absolute unity! ”

Xia Ya finished speaking in a deep voice, looking at the bright moon in the sky and the dark night, and fell silent for a while.

……

……

At the same time, in Xia Junkai's house study, Xia Yuan sat opposite Xia Junkai's desk, holding a teacup, sipping tea one by one.

Xia Junkai sat upright like a clock, drinking tea with an indifferent expression, without any intention of speaking.

It's just that in this way, Dongzi is tired of standing aside, and as the frequency of tea drinking between the two increases, Dongzi has to add tea to the two frequently.

After a long time, Xia Yuan finally couldn't continue to endure this silence, and the plain color on his face disappeared, and he said quite anxiously: "Junkai, what kind of opinion do you have, this time it was Xia Fan's bastard who took the initiative to provoke me!" If you don't take advantage of this great opportunity, it will be too wasteful, right? You say, can I just kill him! As long as you nod your head, I will turn Xia Fan into a corpse in ten days! If you don't think it's okay, then give him a life and be crippled. If my father hadn't asked me to ask for your opinion, would you think I would have come to you at night? ”

Listening to Xia Yuan's direct statement, Xia Junkai's eyelids couldn't help jumping, the reason why he was silent was not that he felt that it was difficult to express his opinion, but that he simply felt that this matter was too much to laugh and cry about.

I knew there would be such an opportunity...... What kind of bullshit killer does he hire!

It's a big deal......

Looking at Xia Yuan's unhappy face, Xia Junkai smiled bitterly, and then said: "My younger brother is indeed becoming more and more ignorant, if he continues to let it go, sooner or later the whole family will fall into a situation from which he will never recover." Although it is very right to do this, for the sake of the whole family, someone must be sacrificed. You go ahead and do it, Father-in-law...... I will do my filial duty as a son of man for my brother. ”

Listening to Xia Junkai's words, Xia Yuan couldn't help but pout, and he was very disdainful of Xia Junkai's hypocrisy in his heart.

In the night, the two of them held their teacups at the same time, and although they smiled at each other, there was not the slightest warmth in the room.

……

……

On the other side, in Xia Fan's house, a large number of herbs have been placed in different categories, and the number of these medicinal materials is extremely large, so it is naturally impossible to use them up directly at one time.

Xia Fan just wanted to avoid being too troublesome to extract medicinal materials again and again, and it was also very easy to attract the attention of those who cared about it, which made Ya'er directly extract so much.

It's also more convenient when you want to use it.

In one night, Xia Fan refined a total of three medicines that were enough for ten days in Xia Wufear's mansion through the medicine tripod, in addition to the blood powder for himself and Bai Xingshu, the same medicine was refined for the two blood servants and Ye Ying, and as for the third medicine, it was naturally refined for Ya'er, who had not yet become a martial artist.

With these three medicines, accompanied by two blood attendants, Xia Fan looked up at the night sky, and his heart was peaceful.

Under the same night sky, within the same family, everyone has their own completely different thoughts.

So the world is big, the world is small, the world is simple...... The world is also complicated
