29 The Great Marshal

Xiao Nan took a basic piano music theory lesson with this Miss Yao, which was nothing more than idle talk.

This Miss Yao is actually just a glimpse of some scenes of the Western world, but she can't get away from Dashuai after all, as the daughter of the Yao family, she can be described as a "strange commodity to live in", and in the end she has to return here and become a tool for her father's marriage.

From her words, she can vaguely see her dissatisfaction, after all, she has seen some advanced things in the West, and let her return to this kind of big family to live like a puppet manipulated by others, she must be more resentful than ordinary women.

Of course, Xiao Nan was also surprised that some of these women in the Republic of China were more emotionally intense than modern women, because even in modern times, men and women are becoming more and more inclined to material marriages.

In fact, with the power of the Yao family, Miss Yao's marriage to a wealthy child of this era is the best choice in the eyes of normal people, even if she marries her favorite "talented man"? Xiao Nan knew that many so-called celebrities in the Republic of China eventually abandoned the mess, abandoned the married wife who was desperate to be with him, and went to find a young and beautiful woman after becoming famous.

A man's inferiority will never change.

The only problem is that only Xiao Nan knows that the Xiao family is indeed a big fire pit, and it will be wiped out in a few years, so it really shouldn't marry into the Xiao family again.

Probably still in the mentality of trying to save this Miss Yao a little, Xiao Nan strongly supported her idea of rebellion, and cited scriptures, citing many examples of advanced sociologists and thinkers at the time, these progressive concepts made Miss Yao's eyes show a different brilliance.

You must know that when Xiao Nan was in college, he was the "star teacher" among the students, he was not only handsome, but also humorous and simple to talk about in class, and even formed his "fan circle" among college girls.

Xiao Nan, who was already well versed in the way of preaching, was equivalent to exuding his unique intellectual charm at all times when he was talking, and in just half an hour, Miss Yao blushed slightly and said, "Since you are so knowledgeable, why don't you come to our new home here to teach me." ”

Xiao Nan was stunned and said, "I have to charge for class." ”

"You are so strange, obviously you are the young master of the Xiao family who has no worries about food and clothing, why do you still open your mouth and shut up to mention money to me?" Miss Yao immediately stretched her face, in her heart, the people of the Xiao family should unconditionally slap themselves up.

"I am the young master of the Xiao family, and there is no conflict with me paying for your labor and deserving of returns. Didn't we just say that human rights are equal? Xiao Nan said. He knew that people like Miss Yao would only accept ideas that were beneficial to her, and if they really talked about "equality" and "human rights", she would never be willing to accept people like her, who were used to enjoying privileges.

"It's really a fan of money, I heard that even in the Xiao family, there are a few young masters who are not welcomed, living like a shrunken turtle, and submissive to the old man of the Xiao family, as if he was in the cold palace in ancient times, it seems that you are one of them." Miss Yao looked at Xiao Nan's dress, "Your clothes are not as good as those servants who received me, you young master is really shabby."

Although you are full of truth, in my eyes, you are no different from a poor scholar.

Thinking about it this way, the kindness that Miss Ben gave you just now really fed the dog. ”

Even if Miss Yao accepts any new ideas, she can't change her mean character, and after realizing that Xiao Nan is just a down-and-out young master, the trace of admiration and girlish heart she has just raised for Xiao Nan has turned into nothing.

"Even so, you're kind of an interesting person, so I'll pay you." Miss Yao's words changed, "This Xiao family's house makes me feel breathless, I want to find a time to see what else you can say interesting things."

Starting this Sunday, you can come to my home tutor every afternoon. You are good at French, English, and piano, and my dad will probably agree to hire you. ”

Even if she looked down on Xiao Nan, she couldn't let go of Xiao Nan, and wanted to hear what else he could say.

After that, she stretched out her lace glove hand and motioned for Xiao Nan to kiss the hand of the Western nobles.

Xiao Nan had to hold her hand and kiss it gently.

At this time, Miss Yao suddenly said: "I don't know why, I think you have a strange aura, a very strange feeling." It's as if you're not from this world. ”

Xiao Nan raised his head and looked at her eyes a little stunned.

"You are not the same as the people of the Xiao family." Miss Yao seemed to mean something else, and then she said, "You can go now." As a token of entering the door, this is for you. ”

I saw her take out a Western ring with amethyst and diamonds intertwined from her finger and hand it to Xiao Nan.

At this time, the maid outside the door suddenly knocked on the door and said, "Miss, the handsome man is about to introduce you to the master here, let's come in and dress you up." ”

"Got it." Miss Yao answered and motioned for Xiao Nan to step down.

When Xiao Nan exited the piano hall, Xiao Ci, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately came over and said excitedly: "How is it?" Miss Yao has a crush on you? ”

"She told me to come and teach her on Sunday." Xiao Nan said.

"Oops! Thirteen young people, you are really capable! Xiao Ci said happily, "I knew I didn't see the wrong person!" We're going to hurry up too! The eldest lord will meet the marshal in the courtyard of the front hall at ten o'clock in the morning, and everyone will be present at that time to show the solemnity. Go and take the opportunity to identify your future father-in-law! ”

Father-in-law? But Xiao Nan didn't dare to refute her, who knew what strange ideas she had to coerce herself.

All the servants with heads and faces were soon gathered in the front hall courtyard and lined up neatly. But women are not allowed to come in.

And several powerful relatives of the Xiao family can enter the hall, but excluding Xiao Nan, even if it is the seventh young master, he has to honestly stand under the corridor very close to the door, without the qualifications to enter the door, Xiao Nan can only stand under the steps with other servants.

said that it is the courtyard of the front hall, and it looks only a little smaller than the courtyard of the Forbidden City.

There must be at least seven or eight hundred servants.

A red carpet stretches from the front door to the front door. In the sound of drums, I saw that the old man who had never shown up much actually walked to the red carpet in person, standing at the foot of the steps, waiting to greet the handsome.

And everyone else, when the eldest master came out, all knelt down, as if to greet the emperor.

Although it was still cloudy, the rain had stopped.

After a while, I saw a handsome man wearing a military uniform, full of medals on his body, and a pot-bellied handsome man dragged into the door one by one in front of him, and the Miss Yao also dressed up and followed behind her father.

The eldest lord who was high up in the Xiao family, at this time, was unusual, and he hurriedly greeted him in person, and as soon as the handsome saw him, he hugged him affectionately.

"You old thing! The pomp is still so big! Like an old emperor! The handsome voice was like a bell, laughing and joking.

"How can you have a big show, as soon as you come back, you will bring a few more divisions to surround Xiao Cheng as impregnable." The eldest man was smiling all over his face, and he seemed to be a close friend who had not seen him for many years, and the two of them hugged and patted each other's backs, which was really intimate.

Only then will the eldest lord be like a person. At least on the surface, he looks like a normal person.

They pulled the homely routine for a while, and then the big man introduced his daughter to the eldest master, and the eldest man stared at Miss Yao for a while, and then smiled and praised Miss Yao for her water spirit.

It is true that Miss Yao is indeed a beauty, but the eyes of the eldest lord do not look like the eyes of the juniors.

In this way, waiting for these nobles to enter the hall after chattering and greeting, of course they did not care at all that there were so many people kneeling around, as if there was no one around, and after a long time, everyone stood up one after another, and the rain began to fall again.

Xiao Nan breathed a sigh of relief, he was finally able to return to his own territory.

When he returned to his bedroom, he felt like he had lost half his life. For him, he didn't eat a bite of food at all, and he was so tired that he died.

Wanyue helped him change out of his wet clothes, and quickly arranged for him to take a hot shower and change into clean clothes, so that he could shrink into the quilt.

Only at this moment did Xiao Nan feel that he had come to life.

"The eldest lord is really a demon who tortures others all the time." He muttered to himself.

"Young master, is the matter of the birthday banquet finally over?" Wan Yue asked.

"Well, I've got a job." Xiao Nan then told Wanyue about her encounter with Miss Yao.

Wanyue frowned slightly after hearing this: "I always feel that Miss Yao is not simple, I think it's better to deal less with this kind of person, in fact, we can live a good life, young master, you don't need to fight so hard." ”

"No, Wanyue, as long as there is the slightest possibility that you and I can leave this Xiao family, I will not give up." Xiao Nan said, "This Xiao family is almost over, we must leave as soon as possible." ”

Wanyue's face changed when she heard this: "You can't talk nonsense about this kind of thing!" ”

"If only you listened to it - sooner or later, the Lord will kill everyone." Xiao Nan said in a low voice, "You have to believe me, I just want to leave alive with you." ”

"As long as it is what you say, young master, I will believe it." Wanyue lowered her head and said, "But you must be careful!" ”

After experiencing so many things with Xiao Nan, she had already vaguely felt that Xiao Nan was really unusual.

Even, she had a feeling that the one-legged man who died by self-immolation would be the real thirteen young people?

No matter who the person in front of her is, he is the only one she really trusts and relies on, and he is the only one who can light a lamp for her in this dark Xiao family.

He is her only "thirteen less".
