Yun Mo listened carefully to the conversation between the two old men in the back.

The hunchbacked old man also smiled when he heard Lao Zhangtou's words, "I can't see that the eldest lady of the Xiao family is quite good to you current people!"

"That's it!"

At the mention of Xiao Huansha, the wrinkles on the old Zhangtou's face were missing, "In our Beixiao City, you can look hard, if you can find someone who is kinder than the eldest lady, count me as Lao Zhangtou, these seventy years have been in vain!"

"Hehe, of course I know that!"

At this time, the hunchbacked old man also seemed to be interested, "I still remember that three years ago, when I worked for your Xiao family, I accidentally sawed my fingers, and as a result, the eldest lady of the Xiao family not only gave me some expensive gold sore medicine, which was scarred in less than two days, but also rewarded me with ten taels of silver." Tsk, from that day I knew that the eldest lady of the Xiao family was really kind-hearted. ”

"Not really!"

Lao Zhangtou also nodded, and then said, "The year before last, we, the old descendants of the Xiao family, were already old, so it stands to reason that we should go home. But you also know that I fled from outside, where is my home? If it weren't for Old Lady Xiao's kindness and rewarding me with a mouthful of food, I would have starved to death on the side of the road. ”

"I was worried that I didn't know where to go, but the eldest lady of the Xiao family didn't know who learned about it, and directly arranged for me to take care of the orchard. It's a job, but in fact I'm just going around there every day, it's an errand!"

"Tsk, no wonder you always have a fruity smell on your body, I thought it was a nose problem, but I didn't expect it to be because of this!" The hunchbacked old man patted his head and laughed.

When Lao Zhang heard this, he was also quite proud, "Hehe, the eldest lady is kind-hearted and knows that I like to eat fruits, so she deliberately arranged such an errand for me." ”

"The eldest lady is not only kind-hearted, but also pretty, with a look of alluring the country and the city, and a great beauty. Looking at the entire Beixiao City, no one can compare to her. ”

"She's so good?"

Hearing the words of those two, Yun Mo was also a little surprised in his heart.

However, the two of them changed their voices again, and their words were full of pity.

"Hmm, what's going on?" Yun Mo saw this, and hurriedly followed, continuing to listen.

Lao Zhangtou sighed, "It's a pity that our Xiao family's current situation is worrying!"

"Is the Ke family going to do it?" the hunchbacked old man seemed to know something inside, and hurriedly asked.

"You know?"

"In the entire Beixiao City, who doesn't know that the Ke family has always been eyeing the Xiao family, and they can't wait to swallow the Xiao family into their stomachs. The hunchbacked old man also sighed, "The Ke family has wolf ambitions and has coveted the position of city lord for a long time, but because of the existence of the Xiao family, he can't succeed, of course he hates the Xiao family to the core!"

"The Ke family is powerful, and the only one who can compete with them in the entire Beixiao City is our Xiao family!" Old Zhang Tou's face was excited, and then a little gloomy, "But the head of the family is kind-hearted, and because of the loss of his wife, his heart is depressed." In the face of the aggressiveness of the Ke family, only using a defensive position will not help. Thanks to the eldest lady's appearance, she barely compared with the Ke family. ”

"I've heard about it, too. The hunchbacked old man nodded, "It seems that some time ago, the eldest lady of the Xiao family defeated the Ke family many times in the business field, causing the Ke family to lose a lot of silver taels. According to this trend, it seems that the Xiao family can slowly turn the situation around, maybe they can turn defeat into victory and take back all the losses they have lost before in one fell swoop!"

"Alas, if there is enough time, I believe that the eldest lady can do it!" At this time, Lao Zhangtou sighed.

"Is there a secret?" Hearing this, Yun Mo's heart moved.

"What's the matter?" When the hunchbacked old man heard this, he hurriedly asked, "Could it be that something happened to the eldest lady of the Xiao family?"

"Well, I don't know. Lao Zhangtou shook his head, "I just heard that she seems to have some kind of disease, which caused her cultivation to not advance but to retreat, and her body is also getting worse!"

When the hunchbacked old man heard this, he sighed, "That's really a good life!"

The two gradually left, but Yun Mo did not follow, but froze in place.

After a long time, he muttered, "There is still such a thing?"

From the conversation between the two just now, Yun Mo knew the situation that the Xiao family was facing now.

A strong rise of the Ke family threatens the Xiao family all the time, and Xiao Huansha, as the pillar of the Xiao family, in order to protect her family, although she is a daughter, she also does not let her eyebrows, and resolutely takes on the burden of revitalizing the family and competes with the Ke family.

With wisdom and means, Xiao Huansha seems to have won one victory after another, defeating the Ke family, but her fate was not smooth, and there were many twists and turns.

Xiao Huansha, who is regarded as the savior of the Xiao family, suddenly suffered from a strange illness and regressed in cultivation, causing the good situation that had just been established to face the danger of overturning.

The Xiao family and Xiao Huansha faced such a situation, but they came to the door to propose to withdraw from the marriage.

What is the difference between such behaviour and falling into a rock?

Although Yun Mo prides himself on not being a good person, he is really a little shameful to do this kind of thing!

Suddenly, Yun Mo seemed to think of something, his brows furrowed, and he pondered for a moment, "At this juncture, my father sent me to the Xiao family, nominally to propose marriage, but in fact it seems to have other ideas? Could it be that he sent me to help the Xiao family tide over the difficulties?"

"Uncle Xiao should also know the situation his family is facing, so he wants to marry his daughter to me, which is like finding a good home for his daughter, and like a way to protect them!"

In an instant, Yun Mo felt a lot of emotion in his heart, and some sighed at the actions of the two fathers.

His father Yunyi, in order to take care of his old friend's face, sent him to help under the pretext of marrying. And Xiao Huansha's father, in this way, sought refuge for his daughter.

One for friendship and one for family, both are great.

While feeling their greatness, Yun Mo couldn't help but worry about the situation he was facing now.

"—how did things turn out like this?"

Now, Yun Mo has told the matter of the divorce, and he has no face to return to the Xiao family. However, if he leaves like this, it is not surprising that the Xiao family will definitely be destroyed by the Ke family. Even if the destruction of the Xiao family has nothing to do with him, I am afraid that he will blame himself for the rest of his life.

To put it simply, Yun Mo was in a dilemma.

Leaving or staying, it's a bit awkward, and it's not very suitable.

"What should I do?" Yun Mo asked Xiang Shu Lao with a depressed expression.

The old scholar glanced at Yun Mo meaningfully, "Some decisions can be made for you by others, but some decisions can't!"

“——”

Such a philosophical sentence made Yun Mo a little speechless.

Although this is very reasonable, it is equivalent to not saying it, and it has no effect.

However, after a moment of silence, Yun Mo finally nodded, "Scholar, what you said is right, some decisions should indeed be made by me. ”

"So what is your decision?" the old scholar seemed to be indifferent, but he said with a deep meaning, "I hope you don't let me down!"

"Hmm!"

Yun Mo nodded, glanced at the white clouds in the sky, and said loudly, "Of course I won't let you down, I won't let my father down, and I won't let myself down!"

After speaking, Yun Mo took a deep breath, shook his hair quite confidently, and then shook his body and walked towards one place.

But just after taking two steps, he turned back and touched his nose with an embarrassed face, "Patronizing and playing handsome, I actually reversed the direction!"
