Chapter 400: Candidates for the head of the family
Su Wanxiao looked at Mrs. Xia and said in a deep voice: "So, the purpose of my aunt's visit is to want me to be the head of the Xia family?" β
"If you can be the head of this Xia family so easily, then you are underestimating your uncle too much!" Mrs. Xia said in a cold voice: "How much effort that man has made for the position of the head of the Xia family, how can you let you snatch the position of the head of the family in his hands so easily!" β
"So, what does Aunt Wan Xiao want to do?" Su Wanxiao looked at this Mrs. Xia curiously, it was rumored that the head of the Xia family and Mrs. Xia were in harmony, who knew that the relationship between the two was so tense now.
Mrs. Xia touched Xia Yueyi's head and said, "I don't care about anything now...... Except for my daughter...... My brother, I know that since you are here, he will never want to marry Yiyi......"
When Xia Yueyi heard this, she bit her lip tightly, and her eyes fell on Su Wanxiao, not knowing what she was thinking.
Ye Junmo said coldly: "Mrs. Xia, you have said so many words, but you have not said the main point, what does Mrs. Xia need us to do, just say it!" β
Mrs. Xia glanced at Ye Junmo lightly and said in a deep voice, "I don't have anything for you to do...... It's just that Wan Xiao is here this time for your father's whereabouts, right...... Although I don't know where your father has gone...... But since your father is looking for medicine, he will definitely go to a place......"
"Where?" Su Wanxiao hurriedly asked.
"I don't know!" Mrs. Xia shook her head and said, "This place has always been known to the head of the family, and all the high-grade medicinal materials can be found in that place, which is the most suitable for treating the diseases of the women of the Xia family...... Your father definitely went to that place! β
Su Wanxiao frowned and said, "Only the head of the family knows?" β
"That's right!" Mrs. Xia nodded and said, "Only the head of the family knows about that place...... So, for the position of head of the house, do you want it? β
Su Wanxiao hooked her lips and said, "Didn't my aunt already say it just now?" Uncle has been able to sit on the head of the Xia family for so long, how can he have no ability at all..... I am just a daughter with a foreign surname, will the Xia family let me sit as the head of the family so easily? Even if my blood is pure, it can't be so easy! β
Mrs. Xia smiled slightly, "That's true...... However, when your mother left, she took a jade bracelet with her, and the jade bracelet was a treasure that the Xia family had inherited for many years, and it was rumored that there was a secret hidden in it...... As long as you can crack the secret, I believe that the elders will definitely want to see you take the position of head of the family. β
Su Wanxiao's eyes lowered, and she said in a deep voice: "I have already told my aunt, I don't know if there is this jade bracelet!" β
"Isn't that what you're wearing?" Mrs. Xia raised her eyebrows and looked at Su Wanxiao and said in a deep voice: "Although you said that the jade bracelet was given to you by your fiancΓ©!" But...... I know a lot about this jade bracelet, and I grew up with your mother...... I am very familiar with the breath of this jade bracelet...... That's the jade bracelet, that's right! β
Su Wanxiao was slightly stunned, and said softly: "Even so, I don't know what the secret of this jade bracelet is...... Didn't my aunt also say it, the Xia family hasn't understood it for so long, what can I know? Su Wanxiao raised the bracelet, and the bracelet lost its disguise, revealing its original appearance......
A light flashed in Mrs. Xia's eyes, looking at the bracelet, her face was full of nostalgia, and Mrs. Xia whispered: "Sure enough, it is this jade bracelet, although I can't be completely sure before, but there is always an intuition in my heart......"
"Auntie's instincts are very accurate!" Su Wanxiao said in a deep voice.
Mrs. Xia stood up and said in a deep voice: "I should tell you that I have already said it, as for what you want to do, it's up to you!" After all, I'm the eldest lady of the Yi family, and I will take care of it, so it won't be anything! β
Su Wanxiao nodded and said in a deep voice: "My aunt has already said so, Wanxiao will naturally think about it!" β
"Yiyi...... Let's go! Mrs. Xia said in a deep voice: "Don't forget, you are the eldest lady of the Xia family, don't forget the ..... I give you on weekdays!" β
"Yes!" Xia Yueyi wiped the corners of her eyes, raised her head and followed Mrs. Xia out of the Qingfu Courtyard.
After the two left, Su Wanxiao looked at the jade bracelet in his hand and said in a low voice: "Junmo, you say...... Mrs. Xia's words...... Is it credible? β
Ye Junmo said in a deep voice: "This matter is very important, it is impossible for Mrs. Xia to deceive us in this kind of matter...... However, it shouldn't be as easy as she said......"
Su Wanxiao lowered her eyes and said in a deep voice: "But it should be true that my uncle knows my father's whereabouts...... Do they really have such a place, though? β
Ye Jun Mo said in a deep voice, "Maybe we can visit the Great Elder, he knows more about these things. β
Su Wanxiao nodded, looked in the direction of the Xia family and said with a smile: "It seems that I am indeed going to visit the Great Elder...... If only the head of the house can know about that place, what's the harm in breaking in...... I don't believe I can't even get such a position as the head of the family! β
Ye Jun Mo said in a deep voice: "In that case, let's go and meet the Great Elder tomorrow!" β
The next day, Su Wanxiao and the two sat in the hall.
Xia Feng hurriedly walked in from inside, and asked in a deep voice towards the two of them, "Miss Su and Ye Gongzi, why did the two of you come?" β
Su Wanxiao said with a smile: "Big brother..... we have something we want to ask the Great Elder, I wonder if the Great Elder has time to meet us?" β
Xia Feng smiled bitterly and said in a deep voice: "It's unfortunate that the two of you came today, my father is not in the house, so I ......"
"I see that Xia Gongzi's expression is different!" Ye Jun Mo said in a deep voice, "I don't know what happened to the Great Elder? β
"Thank you for your concern!" Xia Feng arched his hand and said, "My father is actually the position of my grandfather's Great Elder for the time being, and my grandfather's cultivation has reached an important juncture, so he has to retreat and cultivate...... Therefore, the head of the family did not believe in his father very much...... Now there's something wrong with this big competition...... So my father has to deal with these problems......"
Su Wanxiao frowned and said, "Is this matter troublesome?" β
"Don't worry!" Xia Feng said in a deep voice: "It's just ...... It's just a routine check-up, and my father isn't responsible for this time, so it's not too much trouble......"
Su Wanxiao nodded and said, "That's good...... I wonder when the Great Elder will be able to return? β
"This ...... I don't know ......" Xia Feng said in a deep voice: "It depends on how the head of the family decides!" β
Ye Junmo suddenly thought of something, and said in a deep voice: "I heard...... Xia Gongzi is a candidate for the next head of the family...... I don't know what the requirements are to become the head of the house? β
