Before the meal, Xiao Liu's family had already asked about the situation in the Du Mansion, and even asked about the second and third rooms for a long time, but Xiao Rongyue didn't hide it from her, and she had to tell her about it.

Seeing Zhang's mother come in and reply, Xiao Yanagi said with a smile: "I have already prepared a banquet, just waiting for you and San Lang to come back, your grandfather asked people to get up the Jiannan Burning Spring in the cellar, just wait for today." ”

She got up and personally took Xiao Rongyue's hand: "You have only been gone for three or two days, but your grandfather and I always feel empty in our hearts, even your sister is always thinking about you, and I have sent people to ask several times today, I want to see you." ”

Xiao Rongyue smiled, inadvertently withdrew her hand from Xiaoliu's hand, and straightened the steps on her skirt: "In this way, please come over with the second sister and the third brother, they are all from their own family, so they don't have to be so restrained." ”

The smile in Xiaoliu's eyes couldn't be hidden, and he said continuously: "That's right, it's all my own family, and I have to help your third brother a lot in the future, so that your third brother can learn his homework with him." ”

As he spoke, he hurriedly instructed Zhang's mother: "Go and invite the second lady and Xiao Langjun to come." ”

Xiao Rongyue played a cool fan and hid the sneer at the corner of her mouth.

Xiao Jin and Du Huo often talked for a long time, and only then entered the main hall one after the other, Du Huo looked ordinary, and politely saluted Xiao Yanagi before sitting down on the couch beside Xiao Rongyue.

Xiao Jin frowned slightly, strode in and said to Xiao Liu: "There is no one else, let me have a banquet." ”

He was not commanded to serve wine.

Xiao Yanagi said angrily: "Lord Lang will be in a hurry again, but the banquet has been prepared before, and the jar of Jiannan has been burned, is it just like this?" ”

Xiao Jin had to order: "Let's get the wine, I'll eat a few with Huo Lang." ”

As soon as the words fell, the maidservant outside the main hall saluted: "Second lady, Xiao Langjun." ”

Xiao Jin frowned: "Why are Le Niang and Wu'er here?" ”

Xiao Liu's smile asked people to call them in: "Fang Cai Yueniang said, they are all their own family, and they rarely come back, naturally it is best for the family to eat together, so I asked people to call them over." ”

Xiao Jin couldn't help but be surprised, and turned his head to look at his eldest daughter, the eldest daughter had never liked her younger siblings, and she was only polite and unfamiliar in the past, why was she so kind now?

I saw Xiao Rongyue sitting on her couch, stirring the hibiscus embroidered pill soup in her bowl with a silver spoon, and she didn't look at this side, as if it had nothing to do with her, which made Xiao Jin feel even more strange.

However, at the banquet, he could only suppress the surprise in his heart, and said to Du Huo: "It's Yue Niang's second sister and third brother who came, and you met when you got married before." ”

Du Huo smiled and nodded gently, and did not say more, but his eyes did not even glance outside the door, and he clearly had no interest in the Xiao family.

But the two people who came in were very different from him, the young lady who walked in front was slim, her face was plump and delicate, her skin was as white as snow, and her eyes fell on Du Huo as soon as she entered the door, and she didn't even look at Xiao Rongyue next to Du Huo, her cheeks were slightly red, with a little shyness.

The young Lang Jun who followed behind her was only eleven or twelve years old, and his appearance was quite weekly, but there was a bit of rebelliousness between his eyebrows, and he was slightly restrained when he saw Xiao Jin in the upper seat, and after a few glances at Du Huo, he strode to Xiao Liu's side and sat down, ignoring Xiao Rongyue, the eldest sister.

When Xiaoliu saw his son and daughter, the joy in his eyes couldn't be more gentle, but he still scolded in his mouth: "Don't say hello to your eldest sister yet, you don't understand the rules." ”

Xiao Wu, the little man of the Xiao family, turned his head to look at Xiao Rongyue, and pouted: "The eldest sister sees her in the mansion every day, and she is not a rare guest, so there is no need to be so troublesome." ”

Xiao Jin's brows furrowed even tighter, and when he saw Du Huo and Xiao Rongyue there, he couldn't bear his anger: "Set up a banquet, don't be rude!" ”

Xiao Rongyue slowly raised her head, looked at Xiao Liu's and Xiao Wu on the seat, Xiao Rongle who quietly glanced at Du Huo from time to time, and Xiao Jin and Du Huo, who were sitting in the precarious position, chuckled, speaking of which, the people sitting in this hall can be regarded as Xiao Shi's closest relatives, and they are Xiao Shi's only reliance in the world.

Xiao Jin is Xiao's father, Du Huo is her husband, and Xiaoliu is not only her aunt, but also the sister-in-law of her mother-in-law Da Liu, and Xiao Jin's steproom, Xiao Rongle and Xiao Wu are her half-sisters and brothers, and there is no one more close in the world than this.

It's a pity that none of them really treat the Xiao family, and no one really cares about the Xiao family, they all have their own needs.

Xiao Jin was bent on enveloping Du Huo for the Xiao family, regardless of the fact that the Xiao family was far from the Du family, and tried his best to marry the Xiao family into the Du family, knowing that his eldest female personality was weak, and it would be difficult for the Du family to step by step, but he was ruthless and didn't know, he thought that helping Du Huo to rise to prominence would have a huge return.

It's a pity that he has always underestimated Du Huo's ambition and pride, Du Huo has just been named on the gold list, and the Du family has spread the news that Xiao Shi died of an emergency, Du Huo personally went to his mentor Hongwen Pavilion Zhou Bachelor's Mansion to propose marriage, and married Zhou's daughter the following year, not only that, Du Huo secretly used the power of the Zhou family to pressure Jiangning Mansion and swallow the Xiao family's industry little by little.

Xiao Rongyue stared at the emerald green hibiscus embroidery pills in the bowl, floating in the golden soup, bright and dripping, but she didn't use it, just fiddled with it boringly.

Where did the Koyanagi clan go later? She slowly searched in Xiao's memories, and gradually came to the answer.

The Xiao family was imprisoned by the Du family in the deserted courtyard of Yongyangfang, and the Xiao family soon began to fall under the strong suppression of Du Huo, Xiao Jin couldn't afford to be ill, and Xiao Liu's family waited for a while and realized that something was wrong, and he didn't care about the Xiao family and Xiao Jin, so he wrote a letter to his brother Liu Wu to ask for ideas, and sent news to the Du family before Xiao Jin died, and met Du Huo.

Xiao didn't know what Xiao Liu and Du Huo said when they met, but after they came back, Xiao Liu used the excuse that his sister-in-law was seriously ill and wanted to go back to visit relatives, so he took Xiao Rongle and Xiao Wu back to Liu's house together, and he never came back until Xiao Jin died of illness.

Later, the Xiaoliu family got part of the Xiao family's wealth, and the rest was in the hands of Du Huo, the former son-in-law, and the Xiao family on the rich side has been gone since then.

Raising his eyes to see the harmonious situation in the hall now, Xiao Rongyue's sneer became deeper and deeper, maybe no one would have thought of all the people here in the future, at least now they still think that they are the smartest one.
