Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Shrewd Xia Xiaocao
At night, after Xia Mu sent away the last wave of uncles who came to thank him, Xia Xiaocao had already fallen asleep with a full house of gifts, and there was still a line of ha on the corner of his mouth, which was picked up by Xia Mu in disgust and ready to be thrown into the quilt. But as soon as he touched the gift under Xiaocao's arm, he was bitten, and this little girl was protected to a certain extent.
"Brother, I want to sleep with these things."
"No way!"
"But I can't sleep without hugging me." Xiaocao looked at Natsuki expectantly, her eyes blinking like stars.
Xia Mu ......, "Forget it, if you don't panic, you can do it." ”
Lao Huang at home didn't seem to have seen so many people for a long time, so he was frightened and hid under the bed, even if there was the temptation of chicken bones, he didn't want to come out. Natsuki had no choice but to let him.
"Father, uncles and uncles have all been sent away, and I will personally send them to their house, you can rest assured."
The father leaned against the head of the bed, his face flushed with pleasure. "Mu'er, this is the happiest day in Dad's life."
"Dad, you liar, you said before that the day I was born was your happiest day." The intimate little padded jacket of the future did not hesitate to stab it.
"Ahem...... I mean one of them. ”
"Dad, I've recently learned some methods of internal strength in sports, let me take care of your body." The body feels cold from time to time, especially in autumn and winter.
How to use internal forces? Xia Shi didn't ask much, his son jumped to the number one master in Hekou Town in a short period of time, and saved half of the high-level people in Hekou Town, how could there be no adventures? As long as you know that these powers are just and yang, they won't be evil things, and as for the rest, a paralyzed person lying on the bed can't ask so much.
The power of pure yang injiji poured into Xia Shi's body from the vest, he really felt much better, he felt warm and comfortable, although he still couldn't move, but his muscles and muscles were slowly revived in soothing.
After Natsuki helped his father lie down, there was another knock on the door.
Who else would come at such a late hour? Natsuki saw that his father was asleep, so he didn't alarm him. I came to the door and opened the door.
A fat man stood outside the door licking his belly.
"Yo, isn't this the mayor of the town? What a rarity. "It doesn't sound like a compliment, and it actually isn't. Anyway, after Xia Tie heard this, his face turned blue and white for a while.
He didn't say much, and directly stuffed the things in his arms into Natsuki's hands.
"What is this?" Natsuki asked, looking at the strange sign in his hand.
[Family Master Token: This is the Xia family's family head token, which is made of Shoushan Copper]
"The head of the Xia family, your grandfather brought it from Bibo City, and now it's yours, but don't expect to really be the patriarch of the Xia family, the family chased us for five years because of this matter, and then we couldn't catch up, I heard that they found a piece of jade and carved a similar one."
"Re-engraved?" Natsuki's eyes widened, "This thing can also be re-engraved?" Isn't it too hasty? ”
Xia Tie gave him a blank look, "I thought you would care more about other things, such as the Xia family patriarch." ”
"yes, why is my grandfather's stuff in your hands?"
Xia Tie was completely dead to him, "It seems that your father really didn't tell you anything, you can ask yourself, he knows better than me, after all, I was still young at the time." ”
Leaving a puzzled word, Xia Tieyou stuffed another package into Xia Mu's hand. "It's to reward you for saving the town." After saying that, he left directly.
Xia Mu opened the box, and there were five internal force fruits neatly placed inside. He didn't have a grudge against Neiliguo, so he naturally put it away happily.
"Who's out there? Why didn't you invite people in? ”
"Dad, are you awake? No one, just the wind. ”
Xia Shi saw the sign in Xia Mu's arms at a glance.
"Xia Tie actually gave this thing to you."
The "forehead ......" lie was exposed, and Natsuki was also a person who wanted to save face, so he blushed politely.
"Back then, your grandfather fell out with his family and ran away with me and my younger brother, and he didn't take any of the family's things, but only took away this family owner token, which is your grandfather's obsession, and it is also Xia Tie's, after all, from the eldest young master who has no worries about food and clothing, to a stranger who is displaced, it is unacceptable to anyone."
"What about you, father? Why is there no such obsession as him. "Natsuki has actually guessed something, but he hasn't looked into it? The past grievances had nothing to do with him, it was Xia Tie who was angry with him, and although he saved Xia Tie's life, he didn't want to end the Liangzi left over the years, these are two different things.
Xia Tie himself knew it, so he didn't say much, but he just handed over the meaning of the family master's order to him, but he didn't understand it.
Father continued: "Those days were extremely hard, and your grandfather died of illness soon after we settled here, and his last wish was to return to Bibo City in a bright and bright manner, perhaps he saw that I was loose by nature and could not be trusted, so he gave the head of the family to Xia Tie, but Xia Tie's heart was higher than the sky, and his life was thinner than paper, and his foundation was broken when he was wandering in the early years, and finally Neili stuck in 20 years and could not make progress, and he pinned his hopes on me, which I refused. Now he has handed over the order of the head of the house to you, and he also has the intention of entrusting this matter to you. ”
"And what do you mean, father?"
"What do I mean? This thing was handed down by your grandfather, so you can keep it, the material is good, and you can carve something like an amulet in the future. As for the last wishes of the predecessors, it can't be involved in you, if your grandfather is to blame, he should also blame me, an unfilial son. ”
Daddy's phenotype is extremely free, perhaps for him, the life of being the eldest young master in Bibo City is far less comfortable and leisurely than that of Hekou Town, even if he is lying in bed now and unable to move.
Since his father said so, Xia Mu put this matter aside first, Bibo City, he might go and see it if he has the chance.
At dawn the next day, the door of Natsuki's house was chiseled open again.
"Dog leftovers?"
"Xiaomu, there's a caravan from the town, bringing a lot of things, let's go and have a look."
Caravan? Natsuki remembered the merchant ship he saw yesterday, and his nature was also pulled up.
"Okay, I'll call Xiaocao, otherwise she will definitely be unrelenting again."
"When I came to look for you just now, I saw that Xiaocao was gone. He was still carrying a bag in his hand. ”
"Bags? What package? ”
Xia Mu had a faint bad premonition. He hurriedly ran back to the house, and sure enough, there was a missing piece of the family master token in the bag that Xia Tie gave him yesterday.
……
On the other side, Xia Xiaocao held up the sign in his hand and said seriously to the strong man in front of him: "This, give me five, no, ten lollipops." ”
This should be the most shrewd Xia Xiaocao in her life.
