Chapter 53: The Xiao Family Faction
Jinling, Wutong Lane, in the courtyard of Miss Xiao's family.
Uncle Niu, who has always been kind, took a few steps closer to Xiao Wenbin and a few other young masters of the Xiao family, and glared at everyone: "The old lady has given you face, relatives who can't be beaten by eight poles, take you from Xiaojia Village to support, let you study, start a family for you, and do things for you, do you really treat yourself as a human being?" How dare you deceive the young lady and aunt of the main family? Dog-like things, I really forgot how many bowls of dry rice I could eat! ”
In the face of Uncle Niu's questioning, some of the children of the Xiao family turned red, hid their faces and walked away, which still knew etiquette, righteousness and shame.
Xiao Wenbin was angry with a red face and a thick neck, and opened his mouth to scold angrily: "You Diao slave, you can't write two Xiao characters in one stroke, the affairs of our Xiao family, you are an outsider......"
Seeing that everyone was glaring at him angrily, Xiao Wenbin didn't dare to say any more, and as soon as he spoke, he angrily scolded Niu Bo: "Old guy, you - don't bully the young and poor, thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi, and I will be named on the gold list in the future......."
Uncle Niu was all angry with Xiao Wenbin, "What will you do with the title of your gold list in the future?" Bite the hand that feeds one? Dog-like things, don't bully the poor of the youth, the talent in his twenties is a talent and fame, dare to blow up the thorn in front of the old man, wait until you get the jinshi! ”
Steward Niu has a very poisonous tongue talent, and he disdains Xiao Wenbin, "If it weren't for the fact that you are a relative within the five suits of the master, just by virtue of what you did just now, the old man can make your life worse than death!" Over the years, there have been many Jinshi and people who have been favored by the Xiao family, and you are not a poor talent! ”
Steward Niu's words instantly made Xiao Wenbin recognize the form.
Old lady Xiao has three sons, the eldest Xiao Qinan has only one daughter under his knees is Xiao Shiyun, and the second Xiao Qisong has a son-in-law, a concubine, and a daughter. The third Xiao Qibai has a son-in-law and a second-in-law under his knees.
It's just the third generation of the Xiao family, the two grandchildren can't get on the stage, although the concubine is stronger, but it is also limited, just the capital of the middle, and it is an expert who is worried about the family business, but it is impossible to support the Xiao family's industry outside.
On the contrary, the boss Xiao Qinan is in the same vein, although Xiao Qinan married the wife of the fifth room, only the wife of the main house, Xiao Yue, gave birth to a daughter, and none of the other five-room concubines came out.
Xiao Qinan's heart was like death, who knew that it was this daughter, who had been smart and clever since she was a child, and at the age of thirteen, she showed a good talent for business, and as she got older, she was even more beautiful, beautiful and generous, that is, many official eunuchs saw the wives and wanted to marry the Xiao family.
Xiao Qinan also had the idea of marrying his daughter into a wealthy family, but Old Lady Xiao refused the marriage of the Earl's Mansion for some reason, and he must let Xiao Shiyun fulfill the marriage contract with the Wang family, even if the Wang family is in the middle of the road, only the master and servant are left, and the old lady Xiao will not let go, and will promote Wang Yu to join the Xiao family.
Now that I think about it, the old lady took care of the Xiao family's industry with Xiao Shiyun when she was twelve years old, and from that time on, she had the idea of recruiting Xiao Shiyun!
Although Uncle Niu's words dispelled Xiao Wenbin's arrogance, it did not mean that the rest of the Xiao family was afraid of Uncle Niu.
"Big housekeeper, you said that Wen Bin is a little too much, looking up is just a reason, Wen Bin is a scholar who has been cultivated by the family with great difficulty, his wife has been ruined, can't he find a murderer to make trouble? Do you have to force Wen Bin to bring this matter to the court, and our Xiao family is glorious? ”
It was Xiao Wenpan who spoke, the concubine of the second master of the Xiao family, although he was a concubine, but Xiao Wenpan's two uncles were more competitive, and with the help of Xiao Qisong, he won the fame, and now one has become the county magistrate, and the other has become the county magistrate, and even the status of Xiao Wenpan's mother and son in the Xiao Mansion has also risen, and Xiao Qisong's wife and sister-in-law have been pressed so hard that they can't raise their heads.
Uncle Niu was obviously not afraid of Xiao Wenpan, and said with a pun: "Young Master Sun, what are you anxious about?" The old lady, the eldest master, and the second master are still waiting for the old man to bring people over, don't you want Uncle Ling to come to the trial first? ”
Wang Yu noticed that Uncle Niu called himself an old slave in front of Xiao Shiyun, but in front of others, he was screaming an old man, obviously the old man was also a temperamental and confident.
At this moment, Xiao Shiyun leaned into Wang Yu's ear and explained softly: "Uncle Niu is grandpa's scholar, and my father and two uncles are respectful. ”
At this time, Xiao Shiyun was only half a step away from Wang Yu, and the fragrant breath even floated through Wang Yu's nose, Wang Yu looked at Xiao Shiyun, Xiao Shiyun was also looking at Wang Yu, and Wang Yu felt the grievance and a hint of flattery in Xiao Shiyun's eyes when his eyes met.
"Who are you doing this for?" For the Lantern Festival that used to be, or for your nominal husband?" Wang Yu's gaze at Xiao Shiyun was a little complicated.
Whether it is Wang Yu or Xiao Shiyun, they are more concerned about the matter between the two, as for the humiliation of Xiao Wenbin's wife, neither of them even took it to heart.
"Big butler, let's go see the old lady!" Xiao Wenpan's tone softened.
Obviously, Xiao Wenpan also felt Uncle Niu's suppressed anger, thinking about the other party's status and authority in the Xiao family, his originally hot heart instantly calmed down and wanted to remedy it, but Uncle Niu didn't give him a chance, and waved his hand, "Come on, bring several young masters to the courtyard of the Taigong." ”
Turning his head, Uncle Niu bowed to Xiao Shiyun and Wang Yu very respectfully and said, "Miss, uncle, the matter is getting bigger, I'm afraid I have to invite you two to go to the old lady's courtyard too." ”
Wang Yu frowned slightly, and at this moment, he heard Uncle Niu say again: "The old slave and the old lady naturally know that this matter is not done by my uncle, but the world is so stubborn and stupid, it is not good to let it go." ”
Uncle Niu's attitude was respectful to the peak, Wang Yu was embarrassed to say anything more, looked at Xiao Shiyun, and said helplessly: "It seems that our matter has to be talked about later!" ”
Wang Yu stepped out first, and Xiao Shiyun naturally followed. Chaolu and Baishuang still protected Xiao Shiyun to keep up, and Invite Yue didn't know what to think, so she also followed, and when Lian Xing saw that her sister moved, she also followed, in short, a large number of people followed.
At this time, Luo Qingchuan put down the brush, gently blew the ink on the invitation, and ordered: "Let people send it to Xiao Mansion, just say that I am in Tianrenju - no, prepare wine and food in Chunfeng Pavilion, and wait for Mr. Ling Xiao to come." ”
A hand reached over and snatched the prayer directly from the maid's hand,
"Qingchuan, I really don't know what you think, I just want to invite that guy in the Qinglou, and I want to choose it in the Chunfeng Pavilion, yesterday Liu Ru offended that person fiercely!"
Luo Qingchuan looked at Cao Ying, who was dressed in a six-door chief head-hunting official robe, and said, "That's just some misunderstanding, I think Mr. Ling Xiao won't mind arguing with Liu again!" It's just Zixuan, don't you just avoid it first? I was afraid that you would be there, but Mr. Ling Xiao didn't dare to come. ”
Luo Qingchuan was obviously joking with Cao Ying, "Chunfeng Pavilion can't stand your two hammers, don't bury Mr. Ling Xiao again!" ”
"Humph! I don't think he dares to come? ”
Cao Ying thought of something, raised her hand and rubbed her lips in disgust, but the anger on her face rose instantly, "If you don't come, I'll arrest him, and give me the invitation!" ”
Cao Ying said, holding the invitation in one hand and leaving with two large eight-edged purple gold hammers in the other.
