Chapter 106: Childe Returns Home
The three sons are all dressed as scholars, and the second young master Xiao Ranjie is from the eldest lady, so he naturally stood in front of the two concubines, and he led the two of them to bow down to the old lady and the eldest lady, and the old lady called Xiao Ranjie over with a smile to ask questions. And Xiao Ransong and Xiao Ranqing were still standing there in an orderly manner, not daring to move.
Xiao Lingxiao took this opportunity to take a closer look at the three of them, their relationship now seems to be the same as when they were children, that Xiao Ranjie looks seven points similar to Xiao Shuyong, and is smart and clever, and has always been a person who has high hopes for Xiao Shuyong, and Xiao Ransong and Xiao Ranqing are both concubines from the sixth aunt, basically Xiao Ranjie's followers.
In Xiao Lingxiao's memory, the three of them were all stubborn children, but now that they look at it, they are all slender, well-dressed, and all of them are manly. It's just that these three people are all powerless literati at first glance, and there is no way to compare them with Xiao Fengming. And the appearance of the three people can only be regarded as average, if Feng Ming stands here and compares with them, the three of them will definitely be overshadowed immediately. Even if the eldest brother Xiao Ranjun came back and stood beside them, he had to press them hard.
At this time, I heard the eldest lady mention the conversation and said to the three of them, "You are not at home this year, you must not know that there is a happy event at home." ”
Xiao Ranjie looked at the eldest lady with a smile and said, "But I don't know which happy event my mother is talking about?" ”
The eldest lady smiled when she heard this, turned her head to look at Xiao Lingxiao, and said, "Your eldest sister has all been cured, isn't this a great joy?" Ling Xiao, these are your three younger brothers, see if you can still recognize them? ”
When Xiao Ranjie heard the eldest lady's words, his brows couldn't help frowning slightly. Although the three of them can't come out casually in the academy, they are very well-informed. What's more, if anyone today doesn't know that there is an ominous daughter who has come back from the dead in the Prime Minister's Mansion? Just because of this, Xiao Ranjie and they didn't have to listen to rumors in the academy.
Xiao Ranjie felt a lot of anger in his heart when he thought of these things, but when he just came in, he was attracted by the woman who was sitting next to the third sister who was as elegant as a hibiscus out of the water, but he could also guess from that seat that this woman was Xiao Lingxiao, who was embarrassed and inferior to pigs and dogs.
Seeing the people in this room, Xiao Ranjie could only endure the complicated emotions in his heart, smiled in front of Xiao Lingxiao, bowed, and said, "Second brother Xiao Ranjie, I have seen the eldest sister." ”
After he bowed, Xiao Ransong and Xiao Ranqing also hurriedly stepped forward to salute Xiao Lingxiao. Xiao Lingxiao got up and returned the salute, and said with a smile, "I have long heard that the three younger brothers and the first talent of the origin and whereabouts have not been seen for many years, and they are really very different." ”
Xiao Ranjie and they have been away from home for less than a year, but Xiao Lingxiao said that they haven't seen each other for many years, Xiao Ranjie and others were stunned at first, and then reacted that Xiao Lingxiao has been blind for five years, and it is indeed "not seen for many years". Xiao Ranjie smiled when he figured it out, "In the past, the eldest sister was always alienated from our group of younger siblings and refused to have fun with us, but now the eldest sister's illness has all been cured, and people have become much more funny. ”
This Xiao Ranjie is worthy of being a smart-minded person, and in a few words, he turned the previous thing they used to bully Xiao Lingxiao as Xiao Lingxiao's, not only writing off the past, but also showing his generosity. Xiao Lingxiao smiled indifferently, thinking in her heart, do you think you can take advantage of your sharp teeth? Anyway, everyone in this room knows what the truth is, and I can't afford to spit on you in front of them. The day of reckoning can be later.
Xiao Ranjie saw that Xiao Lingxiao didn't fight back, and secretly became proud. He had already received a letter from Xiao Huanxue to him, telling the things at home clearly, in which Xiao Huanxue put all the responsibility for Xiao Huanyu's destruction and sending away to Xiao Lingxiao, and asked Xiao Ranjie to find a way to get rid of her after he came back. Xiao Ranjie originally thought how powerful Xiao Lingxiao was, but now when he saw it, he was a little unimpressed.
After the old lady dispersed, Xiao Ranjie returned to her yard directly with the eldest lady, and went into the house to talk about family life for a while, Xiao Ranjie saw Xiao Huanxue sitting on the side with a gloomy face and was silent, and said with a smile, "I haven't seen you this year, and the third sister is becoming more and more silent." ”
Originally, Xiao Huanyu and Xiao Huanxue were always together, Xiao Huanyu could speak well, and always rushed to speak, so she didn't feel lonely at all when she got along with them. Now that Xiao Huanyu is gone, Xiao Huanxue looks even more gloomy and cold. Even Xiao Ranjie felt that his third sister was cold and a little scary.
Xiao Huanxue glanced at Xiao Ranjie, then at the eldest lady, still silent. But the eldest lady saw through her thoughts, sank her face, and said in a low voice, "Huan Xue, I know that you have been thinking about everything except Xiao Lingxiao, but don't involve Ran Jie in this matter of the back house." He's going to do great things in the future! ”
Xiao Huanxue's face suddenly became even more gloomy when she heard this, and she said, "Mother said that the second brother is doing great things, which is true, but has my mother forgotten that now there is not only one more Xiao Lingxiao in the yard, but Xiao Ranjun is also back." He is the eldest son of the Xiao family! I, as a daughter, will inevitably marry in the future, but my mother and second brother will live in this Xiao family for a long time, and when Xiao Ranjun has a firm foothold in the Xiao family, he will join forces with Xiao Lingxiao, who can't get married, does my mother think that the world can still be peaceful? ”
After Xiao Huanxue said this, the eldest lady's face became extremely gloomy. She has been thinking about Xiao Lingxiao, but she forgot that there is still such a Xiao Ranjun. What Xiao Huanxue said is not wrong at all, in fact, no matter how noisy Xiao Lingxiao is, she is just a woman, but Xiao Ranjun is a big enemy who wants to compete with Xiao Ranjie for the position of the family.
Xiao Ranjun can't stay even more than Xiao Lingxiao!
Xiao Huanxue looked at the eldest lady whose face was a little pale, and her eyes became a little colder. At this time, Xiao Ranjie next to him smiled heartily and said to the two of them, "Mother, third sister, listen to your words, why do you still treat me as a child who can't afford big things?" Whether it is Xiao Lingxiao or Xiao Ranjun, it is not difficult to get rid of them. Mother, third sister, have you forgotten? In this Xiao family, it is the father who counts, and it is the old lady, as long as they love me, can this business still be taken away by those two people who are not close to them? What's more......" Xiao Ranjie glanced at the two of them and lowered his voice, "Those two people are the bloodline of the Lu family!" ”
Wake up the person in the dream with a word, the eldest lady glared at Xiao Huanxue, thinking that since Huanyu was sent away, this girl has been bent on revenge, and she has already messed up, and now she is causing chaos for others.
Even though Xiao Ranjun has the identity of the eldest son, his biological mother Lu family was destroyed by the emperor. How could such a bloodline take over the position of the head of the Xiao family?
I heard Xiao Ranjie then say, "Our Xiao family has produced several generations of prime ministers, Xiao Ranjun was taken by the third uncle, and he has long been ambitious, but I am the most outstanding in the academy, and the position of prime minister in the future will naturally be my Xiao Ranjie!" Who will care if he is Xiao Ranjun's eldest son at that time? Hum! ”
The eldest lady looked at her son's arrogant appearance, and felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, but she didn't want to say anything. Xiao Ranjie has this arrogance, also because he has that talent.
"Ran Jie, remember what you said today, don't ruin your future because of those trivial things. Mother will definitely do everything else for you, and you don't need to stain your hands. ”
The eldest lady said, looked down at her bulging belly, and made up her mind.
Xiao Huanxue heard her mother say this, so she didn't speak again. When she and Xiao Ranjie came out of the courtyard of the eldest lady, Xiao Ranjie asked Xiao Huanxue, "Second sister, how is she?" ”
Xiao Huanxue just smiled when she heard this, and this smile hung on her usually cold face, which made people feel miserable.
Xiao Ranjie's heart shrank, knowing that he shouldn't ask like this. What else can a young woman do if she is disfigured, goes crazy, and is kicked out of the mansion of Gaomen?
"Mothers also treat us as children and don't worry about us doing things. Third sister, don't worry, my younger brother will definitely make Xiao Lingxiao, who is inferior to pigs and dogs, pay the price. ”
Xiao Huanxue finally breathed a sigh of relief when she heard Xiao Ranjie say this. In Xiao Huanxue's opinion, although the eldest lady has the heart and means, her women's methods are okay to deal with some aunts who pass through the door, but it is not enough to deal with the mysterious Xiao Lingxiao. She shot repeatedly and repeatedly, but she couldn't get any results, she couldn't fight Xiao Lingxiao. Although Xiao Ranjie is not very old, he can firmly rank first in the academy with a complicated situation, he must have seen the world and is strategic. The method he came up with must be a hundred times stronger than his mother.
"Mother is not bad, you will do great things in the future, and you can't ruin your future for the sake of Xiao Lingxiao." Xiao Huanxue also had such worries in her heart, after all, she had seen Xiao Lingxiao's evil sect.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Ranjie laughed loudly when he heard this, "Third sister, isn't she just a cheap woman who was beaten by us as a horse and a dog?" That's good, at tonight's family banquet, I'll use a little trick to beat her back to her original form to the third sister Lehele! ”
Xiao Ranjie is full of confidence, although Xiao Huanxue is still a little uneasy, she is eager to devour Xiao Lingxiao's flesh and blood immediately by the long-buried anger.
"Okay, it's up to the second brother tonight."
The two of them dispersed after saying this, but they didn't know that at this time, the eldest lady was also planning how to perform the scene she had prepared at tonight's family dinner.
"Begonia, everything you prepared is ready?" The eldest lady asked.
Begonia lowered her head and replied, "It's all ready." She thought to herself, Madame had asked seven or eight times today, and it seemed that the matter was tonight. Thinking of this, Haitang remembered what Bao Rong'er had said to her, and hurriedly took this opportunity to say, "Madam, just now Dr. Hua sent a note, do you want to take a look?" ”
The eldest lady frowned when she heard this, "Bring it." ”
She took the note from Begonia's hand and looked at it as if she had been struck by lightning. She gritted her teeth viciously, but then she seemed to notice something, looked up at Begonia, and snorted coldly.
