Chapter 168: There seems to be a hidden secret
Xia Fan didn't know what the conversation was about between the two servants at the entrance to the porter area.
But in reality, the conversation between the two minions was still about him.
After sweeping away the problems within the family in one fell swoop, Xia Fan asked the old housekeeper to arrange some people to spread similar rumors within the family.
The purpose is very simple, that is, to completely change his own image in the minds of the entire Xia family.
Now the Xia family, all the major internal problems have been cleaned up by Xia Ya.
The things that the entire Xia family needed were already very different from a few months ago.
The current Xia family needs unity and strength the most.
Therefore, if Xia Fan continues to maintain his kind of deceitful appearance and disguise, it will not be a good thing for the Xia family, and it will not play any positive role.
In this case, of course, it is time to take the opportunity to change your image.
And if you want to achieve your goal in the shortest possible time, it is undoubtedly the best way to make up a story full of legends.
In fact, just like the discussion between the two servants at the entrance of the gatehouse, during this time, every corner of the entire Xia family mansion was constantly happening.
The two servants at the entrance of the gatehouse are a microcosm, representing the living conditions of the servants in the middle and lower classes of the entire Xia family in the recent period.
and a certain transformation from the bottom up, which takes place within the entire Xia family.
It was already close to noon, and there were few people in the concierge area, Ya'er trotted into the room where her uncle was waiting, and Bai Xingshu whispered a few words to a nearby servant.
The servant said yes, and went to prepare the wide carriage for leaving the city.
Soon, a villager came out of a room with Ya'er.
Ya'er briefly introduced Xia Fan and Ye Yi to Murahan, and told Xia Fan and Ye Linger that this Murahan was her own uncle.
Murahan obviously hadn't seen anything in the market, and when he heard Ya'er's introduction, his expression was very frightened, and his legs even trembled slightly, as if he wanted to kneel down for Xia Fan directly.
It's just that before the action was made, it was already stopped by Xia Fan.
Immediately afterwards, Xuehe and Bloody Hand also rushed over behind Ye Kui, the carriage was ready, Xia Fan smiled and comforted the village Han a few words, and then took a few people to get into the carriage together.
Ye Kui personally sat in front of the carriage and did the work of the coachman, and the bloody hands and the blood river stood at the end of the carriage one after the other.
There were five people in the carriage, but the carriage was pulled by four horses, and the carriage was not only wide, but also very comfortable, so even if there were five people sitting in it, it still did not look crowded at all.
It's just that Ya'er's uncle seems to be very unaccustomed to such an experience, and sits on the corner of the carriage quite nervously, not even daring to raise his head.
"Don't be nervous, Ya'er also has a very high status in my place, I still treat Ya'er as a sister, since you are Ya'er's elder, you are naturally my and Yi's elders. Relax and spend time with your family. ”
Xia Fan looked at the nervous appearance of the village man who was about to sweat, and couldn't help but smile and sigh with relief.
"Uncle, the young master and the young grandmother are very good people, you don't have to be so careful."
Ya'er, who was sitting next to the village man, also spoke.
"Yes, yes, thank you...... Thank you, young master. ”
The village man stammered.
It is really impossible for such simple peasants, who have been honest all their lives and dealt with loess all day long, to make them change their humble psychology from the heart.
So after a word of relief, seeing that there was no change in the attitude of the village man, Xia Fan no longer persuaded him, but directly asked about Ya'er's father.
As soon as this was mentioned, Murahan's face obviously showed an angry look, and the frequency of his breathing also increased slightly, but after struggling for a while, he looked at Ya'er on the side, and his hesitation gradually rose, and he didn't say anything after all.
He just sighed helplessly, and then shook his head.
"Uncle, what's wrong? You didn't tell me about this just now, could it be that my father was injured...... Is there anything else hidden? “
Ya'er suddenly became a little anxious.
"I didn't ...... Nothing...... Xiaoya, your dad won't let me tell you, besides, even if you tell you, it's useless, just plain angry. Ay...... We are all the most ordinary ordinary people, and many things can only be recognized. ”
Murahan sighed again, and there was a bit of frustration in his tone.
"If you don't say it, how do you know it's useless? If Ya'er's father was in trouble because he provoked someone, I think...... I can still handle it. At least, as long as there are troubles and problems within this Qingyang City, there is nothing I can't solve. ”
Xia Fan said with a smile.
"Yes, uncle, the Xia family is one of the two most powerful families in Qingyang City, the young master is the young master of the Xia family, in this Qingyang City, nothing can stump the young master."
Ya'er nodded in agreement.
"Hey, it's useless, Xiaoya, although our family has been farming and has no knowledge, we still understand some basic truths. The people don't fight with the rich, the rich don't fight with the officials, no matter how powerful the Xia family is, after all, it is only a rich family, and it is impossible to fight those officials. ”
Murahan shook his head again, looked at Xia Fan carelessly, and then said, "Young Master, I say so, you...... Don't be angry, it's just that in the eyes of us ordinary people, that's the way things go. Maybe there is money like you, and you can not care about some officials at all, but we are not related to you, if it is really for us, to offend those officials, it is also a difficult thing for you, you say yes. “
Xia Fan raised his eyebrows, but he didn't expect to hear such words from Ya'er's uncle.
"Ya'er, did you tell your family anything before?"
Ye Yi's reaction was faster than Xia Fan's, and after listening to Murahan's words, he looked directly at Ya'er and asked.
Ya'er's little face was slightly red, like a child who had done something wrong, lowered her head slightly, and said softly: "When I told my family before, I said that I couldn't cause trouble to the Xia family, and no matter what happened, I couldn't do anything under the banner of the Xia family. My family is honest, and I think I've always remembered it. ”
"You, I don't know what I'm thinking all day long in my little head, your young master and I have always helped my relatives and didn't care, and you don't know."
Xia Fan realized at this time, and couldn't help but say angrily.
"I ...... I just don't want to cause trouble for the young master......"
"Okay, okay, I know, let's talk to your uncle again, we have to figure out what is going on before we know how to deal with it."
"Well, I'll explain it to my uncle."
