Chapter 80: Persuasion
Xiao Jingyan rested outside for most of the day before returning to his home, and now he was troubled by the group of bandits, and he was no longer in the mood to share the good news with his little niece. This kind of face-losing thing was originally planned to be concealed.
It's a pity that it backfired, someone in the family was injured, even if it was just a subordinate, Tong Mingyu quickly got the news, and it didn't take long for someone from the yamen to come to the door. At this moment, Xiao Jingyan made people fascinated by sweat medicine, and his father, brother, and sister-in-law all knew about being saved by King Jing.
General Xiao looked disgusted, stared at his son for a long time, and dropped a sentence, "You really embarrassed Lao Tzu, can you be a little more cowardly?" Throwing away his sleeves and throwing this little son who gave him a headache when he looked at it, to the eldest son who was always openly and secretly trying to rob him of his granddaughter.
General Xiao walked casually and leisurely, with undisguised schadenfreude in his lightness.
Xiao Jingkang, as the eldest brother, had to stay behind to help clean up the mess and deal with the people in the yamen. After sending everyone away, he looked at his youngest brother and shook his head speechlessly.
This is a child who has not grown up, his ability to deal with things is worse than Ah Lang and Ah Yi, and I don't know how he spent his two years of going out, and he was able to come back intact, which can be regarded as a miracle.
When he was his age, he was already a father of two children, but now he doesn't even know where his daughter-in-law is!
"Big brother, can you be a little sympathetic!" Xiao Jingyan was very depressed in his heart, it was not enough that he was frightened outside, but after returning home, his father disliked it and his brother was bored.
At this moment, he suddenly could understand Xiao Rui's mood, if today's incident happened to Ping An, Dad would never be so easy, and Big Brother would not be so calm, Ping An is the treasure in their palms, and he is the grass on the ground that no one cares about, hey! It's a hard life!
The results of the Yamen's interrogation were soon put in front of the Xiao family, the carriage was temporarily hired, just pick up the people, send them out of the woods, someone will come to pay, and the rest of the coachmen don't know.
The masked men are a group of skilled mountain bandits, who do business with one hand and one hand, and the people who connect with them are dirty beggars who don't know what they look like. In a word, the result of the investigation into this matter is: nothing.
This result was already expected by the Xiao family, who would leave traces for you to track down if you did this kind of thing, and in the end, this matter had to end in a dead end.
Xiao Jingyan also wanted to open it, and took the opportunity of being unwell to take sick leave, and there was a great posture of not repairing it for a year and a half, and it would never be finished.
I don't know what kind of psychology he had, on the grounds that the patient needed to be taken care of, he often asked Xiao Yao to come over to accompany him, read books, pour tea, and peel fruits...... Anything he thinks a five- or six-year-old child can do, he will hand it over to Xiao Yao to do. It is also said that it is for the good of her little niece, so that she can learn how to take care of people since she was a child.
General Xiao often carries his old wife behind his back to warn his younger son, don't go too far, you want someone to serve, okay! Let's get married tomorrow!
Xiao Jingyan had no choice but to restrain herself, only let Xiao Yao accompany her to talk and read, and didn't dare to let her do anything else.
Some people are relaxed and comfortable to stay at home to recuperate, and of course, some people are nervous, wondering if there will be an incident.
Yu Xianrong sat in front of the dresser with a gloomy face, frowning and biting her lip suddenly. Vanilla stood quietly by the door, slowing her breathing and minimizing her presence.
The room was eerily quiet, except for the occasional sound of the wind shaking the branches and whirring.
The hateful Xiao family dared to ignore their seven years of dedication, could they still find someone who liked Xiao Jingyan more than themselves? In terms of family background and appearance, I can be ranked in Kyoto, where is it worse than others!
I will be nineteen years old in the New Year, and it is said that my mother has even chosen someone for herself, and I am afraid that I will be hired after the New Year. Even if there are 1,000 and 10,000 unhappy, now she is becoming more and more passive, and her hope of being with Xiao Jingyan is getting slimmer and slimmer.
A good thing was disturbed by that King Jing, now it's okay, Xiao Jingyan doesn't even want to go out of the door again, he is completely helpless, and he can't start.
If you can't marry Xiao Jingyan, the Xiao family is the biggest enemy in your life, and as long as you have the opportunity in this life and this life, you will never let them go.
Just when she was restless and complaining, Mrs. Yu came to her room surrounded by a group of maids and mothers-in-law.
"Stand down, all of you." Mrs. Yu, who had just walked into the room, waved away all the subordinates and sat down beside Yu Xianrong. Looking at the daughter in front of her, who used to be spoiled and spoiled, and now is almost crazy for a man, Mrs. Yu has mixed feelings in her heart. Complain, I can't bear it; Don't open your mouth, you can't let her continue to be confused.
"Rong'er, have you been hiding anything for your mother recently?" Knowing her daughter Mo Ruomu, her daughter seems to be calm recently, and An An stays at home, but in fact, she keeps making small moves.
The more she avoided others, the more worried Mrs. Yu became, she didn't agree with her daughter's plan, but she couldn't bear to see her long-term wish really come to naught. I wanted to help my daughter secretly and let her get what she wanted, but who knew that killing a King Jing who couldn't be provoked at all destroyed the whole plan.
It seems that the daughter and that Xiao Jingyan really have no husband and wife fate!
"I don't understand what you mean, I haven't been anywhere lately." Yu Xianrong argued with confidence.
"Don't think you don't know what you're doing, if I hadn't erased all traces for you, do you think you would still be sitting here safely? You've already gone to the cell and squatted. For this daughter who doesn't shed tears when she doesn't see the coffin, and doesn't look back when she hits the south wall, Mrs. Yu feels powerless.
"I, whoever told you not to help me." Yu Xianrong still didn't admit her mistake in the slightest.
"How else do you want us to help you, your father is about to become the laughing stock of the whole Kyoto, and the Xiao family took a detour when they saw him from afar. What I took you out again and again, I didn't hope that you would have a good reputation outside, and that you would have more opportunities to get in touch with their daughters. And the result! Rong'er, wake up, the Xiao family doesn't want to marry our family at all. ”
"No, it's not what you say it is."
"Okay, you tell my mother, what the truth looks like." Mrs. Yu has already made up her mind, she must wake up her daughter today, and she can't let her be obsessed anymore.
Yu Xianrong...... ......
After a moment of silence, Mrs. Yu took her daughter's cold hand, sighed pityingly, and comforted in a soft tone: "Xiao Shilang is not the only good man in the world, Lord Huang's son is good, he was born in Jinshi, an official of the fifth grade, and he has a good reputation......
"What does it look like, is Xiao Jingyan handsome?"
Mrs. Yu almost didn't let her daughter's words choke up, handsome, can you eat it as a meal? Handsome, can it be used as silver? Besides, I can't find a few people in Kyoto who look like Xiao Shiro! It's not that I don't know that he is excellent, the key is that people don't look down on you!
"What's the use of being handsome, he doesn't even have a serious errand, he is idle all day long, and he is a gentleman, why can't I see what's good about him?"
"I don't care, I won't marry without him looking good."
"I can't let you have the final say in this matter, since ancient times, it has been the words of the matchmaker of the parents, from now on you don't have to do anything, just embroider the wedding dress with peace of mind, if there is any wind and grass outside, I will let you get married before the year, believe it or not."
Mrs. Yu took out the tone of being the master of the house and giving orders, before coming to her daughter's room, she wanted to be calm and persuade softly, but unfortunately after all the good things were said, her daughter still couldn't listen, and finally she could only give orders directly.
"I don't, I won't marry anyone except Xiao Jingyan." Yu Xianrong resisted without showing weakness.
Mrs. Yu slammed the door angrily, and before leaving, of course, she didn't forget to warn her daughter, the maid and mother-in-law in the yard, "Keep an eye on your young lady, if something happens, none of you want to live." ”
The subordinates of a courtyard can only bow their heads and receive their orders, and their fate has always been in the hands of their masters, and they have no right to control it themselves.
