Chapter 10: A Sudden Family Affair

Ye Xiaochen looked at Uncle Xue in his mother's mouth, middle-aged in his forties, mature and majestic, he should not be wearing an official uniform, he was sitting there at the moment, looking at himself with a smile, "Six or seven years have passed, but you still know your uncle?" Xue Dingwen had a smile in his eyes, and his tone was emotional, "Xiaochen has seen his uncle" Ye Xiaochen really didn't know what to do, so he had to learn what to do in the TV series, bow down and salute, it seems that he will have to make up for the ancient etiquette after he goes back......

"Chen'er, go back to your room to rest, I have something to talk about with your Uncle Xue" Qin Xianghua looked at Xue Dingwen and said to Ye Xiaochen, "Okay" Ye Xiaochen left.

"Xue Shangshu, Ling Yuan and Xiao'er's family affairs are agreed between Ling Tang and his father, and I can't make up my own mind" Qin Xianghua really didn't dare to let it go privately for the family affairs set by the old general, "That is the case, then I will go back to show my father, and I will also trouble Mrs. Ye to explain to the old general Ye, after all, Ling Lang and the little girl are not young, and the old general has every opportunity, and he can not get out of the enemy country at all times, so he can only trouble Mrs. Ye and Yuntian to bother" The words were leaky, which made people very sympathetic and agreed, Qin Xianghua nodded without a trace, yes, Chen'er is not small now, if it weren't for the Ye family's need to guard the fortress, maybe she would have been married to the second lady of the Xue family......

"Xue Shangshu rest assured, I will definitely inform my father as soon as possible to make a decision as soon as possible" Qin Xianghua also sincerely agreed, "Then I won't bother much, there are still some things to deal with in the house, so I will retire first" Xue Dingwen decided to leave when he saw that his goal was achieved, and the fragrant tea brought by the maid was still smoking, but the guests were gone.

This Xue Shangshu is the household secretary of today's Wu Kingdom, in charge of Tianwu's finances, the power is tilted towards the government and the opposition, his father, Xue Manjiang, and the old general Ye Xianglong are extremely good, but in the early years, Xue Manjiang became an important minister of the household department, and Ye Xianglong was in charge of the Tianwu army, as a last resort, the two families are no longer close, because the two old people know that finance and the army, in order to avoid suspicion, can not be too close, so the two families have been in a similar confrontation situation for nearly 20 years, but in the past ten years, the emperor's reliance on the Ye family has risen, And Xue Manjiang Lao Shangshu happened to withdraw from the household department, and General Ye Lao brought up the old matter again, and decided this family affair with Xue Manjiang Lao Shangshu.

One is that seven years ago, the Tutan Kingdom gnawed a large area of land in his neighbor Qianyu Kingdom, suspended its expansion, and concentrated its forces to attack Tianwu again, and the Ye Mansion had to station the Changlong Fortress again to defend against the enemy. The second is that Xue Dingwen, the eldest son of Lao Shangshu, has prospered in the past ten years, from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to the Ministry of Officials, and then was appointed as the Household Minister, and now, he is already the Household Department of Shangshu, a member of the first grade, in charge of Tianwu's financial power, time, under the weight of the two old people, it has been dragged to the present, Ye Xiaochen and the second miss of the Xue family are both twenty-three or four, and it is difficult to find the right person to the door, and finally someone can't sit still!

"Dust?" Qin Xianghua came to Ye Xiaochen's door and called softly, "Mother, why are you here?" Uncle Xue is gone? Ye Xiaochen asked suspiciously, "Chen'er, my mother has something to tell you" Qin Xianghua closed the door and pulled Ye Xiaochen to sit down, "Chen'er, your grandfather gave you a family affair when you were fourteen or fifteen years old, and now you are not young, when I inform your grandfather, choose a good day and an auspicious day, and you will marry that girl as soon as possible."

Ye Xiaochen stared at Qin Xianghua with eyes, why did he suddenly arrange a marriage for himself? This really caught Ye Xiaochen off guard, "Mother, can I not marry?" ”

"You kid, that girl is the second lady of the Xue family, and she is also a good match with our Ye Mansion, and it is your grandfather who nodded and promised, now after so many years, you say that you will not marry, where do you want to put the Ye Mansion, and let the Xue family have no face" This is the first time Qin Xianghua reprimanded him so harshly, Ye Xiaochen was stunned for a while, this seems to really have the momentum of the old mother! "Besides, how can marriage be a child's play, you are now so old, and the girl who is in charge of my Ye Mansion has already been married" Qin Xianghua said again,

"That, mother, I don't know what that girl looks like, what if it's too ugly?" Ye Xiaochen is very concerned about the point, if he marries a beautiful girl in this dream, it seems that he doesn't object much in his heart, he is afraid that he is afraid that he is a beauty of the Tang Dynasty in that impression, thinking about it, Ye Xiaochen will have a chill.

"Chen'er, everyone who hasn't left the pavilion is generally out of the door, and my mother doesn't know what the girl looks like" Qin Xianghua comforted Ye Xiaochen, "You can't escape this family business, your grandfather's one-hearted temperament will not break his word, if the second miss of the Xue family is really ugly, my mother is looking for a concubine room for you" Qin Xianghua made a big move, "uh...... "It seems that this world doesn't need monogamy......

"Can you let my eldest brother marry?" Ye Xiaochen didn't give up, "Not to mention that your grandfather disagrees, the Yang family behind your sister-in-law will definitely not agree" Qin Xianghua ruthlessly snuffed out Ye Xiaochen's last thought!

"Then it's all up to the mother" Ye Xiaochen accepted his fate, maybe she was a beauty, it would be better if she looked like a beautiful team leader...... Even if it's ugly, I think I can marry again...... My Ye Xiaochen's happy life is coming...... Ye Xiaochen had already entered his fantasies, but after calming down, he still decided to take a look at Miss Xue Er's true face, otherwise he would have no bottom in his heart.

"Mother, I'm going to go out again in the afternoon and scatter my heart" Ye Xiaochen looked at Qin Xianghua, "Hey, Chen'er, I have wronged you, but you must know that my Ye family is also suffering now, forget it, my mother is also confused, what are you doing with this, well, let's go after eating, you must come back early"

After lunch, Ye Xiaochen went out to investigate again, and this time, it mainly revolved around the Xue family and the second miss of the Xue family, and an hour later, Ye Xiaochen stopped at a teahouse to rest.

After Ye Xiaochen's inquiry, some of the situation of the Xue family entered his mind, the Xue family was originally a family of military generals, but unfortunately the people were not prosperous, and it was passed on to Xue Manjiang's father, Xue Qingyun's generation, who was already the only son of the Xue family, fortunately, Xue Qingyun has improved a little, two men and two women, the eldest son Xue Manhe is mediocre and has no queen, the second son Xue Manjiang abandoned Wu Congwen, the official worshiped the Hubu Shangshu, and gave birth to two sons, the eldest son Xue Dingwen, the current first-class member Hubu Shangshu, the second son Xue Dingwu, the lord of Qingzhou City in the south of the Tianwu Kingdom, and Ye Xiaochen also roughly understood the official position system here.

There are some differences from those dynasties in Ye Xiaochen's impression, but they are most similar to the official positions after the Sui Dynasty. There are no three provinces here, but there are six, but the military department in the six departments is independent from the general's mansion, the main city guard of the military department, the main city guard of the general's mansion, the general's mansion is against the enemy, and the general's mansion has an independent title, such as the protection of the Ye family, the majesty of the Yang family, is the title!
