Chapter Seventy-Four: Decisions
The people in the side hall didn't expect Xiahou Yu to speak at this time, and listening to that tone, it was still towards Xiao Huan, and everyone was a little stunned for a while.
After being stunned, Xiao Han breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that he was lucky not to say the wrong thing.
Xiao Xi's gaze was even more gloomy.
Xiao Huan and the eldest princess of Jinling were married, and they had only met once before they got married, and they didn't even say a word, because before agreeing to this family business, they carefully considered the interests and gains and losses of both parties, and made up their minds to get married. Looking at each other, it's just going through the motions, so as not to know each other from the other side.
I didn't expect Xiao Huan to be so capable, he went to Xuzhou after a month of marriage, and then transferred to Xiangyang, even so, he could coax the eldest princess of Jinling to stand on his side.
He couldn't help but glance at Xiao Huan.
Xiao Huan's heart was bittersweet and bitter, and he couldn't tell what it was like.
He quietly brought Xiahou Youfu to Jiankang City, and he had already exposed his ambitions and plans, although they didn't say some things, they should know each other. It's just a coincidence, Xiahou Yu succeeded without omission, he just failed. To say that Xiahou Yu didn't have any ideas in his heart, it was impossible. Including her first refusing him to return to Gusu this time, and then changing her mind, he guessed that this was all the result of Xiahou Yu's hesitation.
He is now caught in a family conflict, and it is already kind for Xiahou Yu not to speak sarcastically afterwards, let alone help him speak...... This was something he never expected.
Xiao Huan glanced at Xiahou Yu.
Wu was surprised and delighted.
The eldest princess and her son stood on the same path, and there was nothing better than this.
If you want to get married, don't you just want to find a partner? On weekdays, I ask for warmth in the cold, and when I have something, I help each other, and I don't have to do everything, which is tiring.
Xiao Huan went to Jiankang this time, promoted the governor of Xiangjing Festival, and the hussar general, she will go farther and farther in the future, sooner or later she will not be able to keep up with her son's pace and give up her position to her daughter-in-law. Now that the daughter-in-law is willing to go hand in hand with her son, what could be more joyful?!
Wu took Xiahou Yu's hand and said with a smile: "No conflict, no conflict." I think the eldest princess is right, this sacrifice is not only for Ah Huan's father, but also because Ah Huan has been promoted, he needs to tell the world, so that everyone knows the changes in our Xiao family in the past few years, maybe when Ah Huan leaves, he can bring a few young talents from Wuzhong to help him! ”
This is also why Xiahou Yu misunderstood Xiao Huan again, thinking that Xiao Huan wanted to take this opportunity to strengthen the prestige of the Xiao family and select available talents for his own use.
Xiao Han sighed in his heart when he heard this, knowing that the Wu family had stood firmly on Xiahou Yu's side at this time, if he didn't change his words, he could only let Xiao Huan dislike it. But if he changes his tune......
He looked at Han Xi.
Although the two are brothers, they have grown up together since childhood, they speak and act with the right appetite, and they marry a girl of the same family, and they are the closest among brothers, even closer than siblings. All along, he has been on Xiao Xi's side.
Xiao Xi saw Xiao Han's gaze and knew that Xiao Han was persuading him to calm down.
He knew that for the sake of the eldest princess of Jinling who came to Gusu for the first time, he should just turn a blind eye and pass it over, but as soon as he saw Xiao Huan's cold face that was similar to Xiao Yan's seven or eight parts, he couldn't stop his anger, and he would rather lose jade than let Xiao Huan get what he wanted.
Xiao Xi said coldly: "The eldest princess must have heard of it. Since the 'four surnames are chaotic Wu', the Xiao family has always followed the words of their ancestors and never made a show of attraction. Princess A Huanshang, who went north to become an official, and was frustrated by Lu Yuan, should not be ostentatious. That's why I objected to his hype about the fifth anniversary of my brother's festival. The ancestors of the Xiao family are sincere and diligent. Don't let this kind of noise and strife go. ”
Noise?!
If there is no radical effort from Xiao Yan, how can there be the title of the Xiao family's Wuzhong giant?
In the previous life, without Xiao Huan's competitiveness, how could there be the prestige of the Xiao family?
Xiahou Yu endured it and didn't pout.
Wu couldn't sit still when he heard this, and retorted sharply: "Second uncle's words are wrong! The ancestral family motto is to tell the children and grandchildren not to have crooked thoughts, and to go to the left and the right, how can it be compared with sacrificing your eldest brother! Don't talk about this matter anymore, I have already decided, when worshipping your eldest brother, the eldest three animals, one silk, three lords, and seven chopsticks.
In other words, a great sacrifice.
Xiao Xi knew it would be like this.
He got up with a sneer and said, "I'm just afraid that I will have something to do that day, and I won't be able to officiate." Let's invite brothers from other clans to preside over the sacrifice ceremony. With that, he strode out the door.
"Zhonghe!" Xiao Han chased him out again.
It's just that Xiao Han couldn't stop Xiao Xi this time, so he followed Xiao Xi and chased him out.
Such a change made Xiao Xing's face full of panic.
In this era of family-dependent, losing the support of your family means that you have to go it alone. No matter how powerful a person is, he is invincible with two fists and four hands. Especially after his brother Xiao Huan has just been promoted to the rank of knight, if today's dispute spreads, others will only think that Xiao Huan does not respect his elders after he is rich and noble, and insists on going his own way, who else will really help Xiao Huan, how can those talented people come to Xiao Huan and be willing to be used by Xiao Huan?
Xiao Huan obviously thought of these as well.
He smiled reluctantly at Xiahou Yu, his voice was a little weak, and he said in a low voice: "Eldest princess, let you see the joke!" ”
Just before Xiahou Yu could speak, Wu had already said: "You kid, what nonsense are you talking about!" Your husband and wife are one, so why not look at the jokes. However, your second uncle is too stubborn, you might as well go over and take a look! Saying that, she frowned, and said with some embarrassment, "If it really doesn't work, I'll go to your second aunt to persuade your second uncle!" ”
Xiao Huan shook his head, his eyes still fell on Xiahou Yu's body, and he said in a dumb voice: "There is a conflict between my father and my second uncle, and my second uncle doesn't want to see my father admired, no matter how much he says, it's useless." Mother, you and the eldest princess should go back and rest first! The second uncle didn't want to be the main priest, so I went to invite the thirteenth uncle. The thirteenth uncle and his father have a very good personal relationship, and they should be willing to be the main priest. ”
It's a pity that Xiahou Yu is a person who doesn't believe in evil.
She felt very uncomfortable when she saw Xiao Huan begging like this.
She said, "Why don't you be the main priest yourself." With your current status and status, you will not be insulted. ”
Xiao Huan's mother and son were stunned.
Xiao Huan knew that Xiahou Yu was a little unruly, but he couldn't imagine that Xiahou Yu had reached such a point.
Whose chief priest is his own son? Usually they invite people who are highly respected in the clan.
Unless he becomes a general and a great Sima, like Xiahou Yu's maternal grandfather Zheng Can, he can make the emperor say the words "Xiahou and Zheng share the world".
Of course, Xiahou Yu also knew.
She shrunk her shoulders again.
In his previous life, before Xiao Huan returned to his hometown to worship his ancestors, he was promoted to the rank of Great Sima.
She seems to have pitted Xiao Huan a little bit!
Thinking of this, Xiahou Yu's face was a little feverish.
