A kind of arrogant and awkward family of high-ranking cadres, Ran Yan summed it up in his heart.

"Why did you and Ah Weng turn their faces?" Ran Yan asked.

Xiao Song held her hand slightly, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "He wants me to resign and return to Lanling." ”

"Why?" Ran Yan was surprised, the family is the honor and reputation of high-ranking officials, Xiao Song is obviously a very promising person in politics, why did the Song State Guild cut off his son's future like this?

The apricot 'flowers' in the yard have begun to wither, and the ground is full of pink and white 'flower' petals, Xiao Song stretched out his hand and patted the trunk gently, and the 'flowers' of the tree were fluttering one after another, falling like snow, and the two of them were full of heads, and Ran Yan glared at him angrily.

Xiao Song said with a smile, "This tree was planted by Aya when I was a child, and I am fortunate to have it." He said that if he didn't behave uprightly and only relied on 'yin' tricks and tricks, he would not always be so lucky, and sooner or later he would be defeated and 'exposed', and at that time he would not only humiliate the Xiao family, but also leave a stench for thousands of years. ”

Ran Yan agrees with Song Guogong's point of view, being a man should still be upright, but if people don't offend me, I won't offend people, if they are 'forced', they can't be upright, and they can't stick to it. Song Guogong has always been upright, so he can't 'mix' in the cabinet.

"The patriarch of the Xiao clan is very old, and the patriarch of the Xiao clan unanimously elected me to take over." Xiao Song explained the reason why Song Guogong asked him to resign.

In a huge clan like the Xiao clan in Lanling, there are a lot of things for the patriarch, and it is impossible to concurrently serve as a patriarch, and Song Guogong has always thought that if Xiao Song's handling and 'sexuality' personality cause something, it will discredit the Xiao family, and more importantly, he may be expelled from the Xiao family tree. And if he takes over as the patriarch, no matter how scheming he is, he will always be in the clan, and there are so many clan elders supervising and assisting him, and there will be no big mistakes.

Ran Yan thought about it, and suddenly paused, approached him and whispered, "The person who murdered your wife's room and made you the life of your wife, but for the position of this patriarch?" ”

Xiao Song looked at her with a smile on his face, "Madam is still so keen." ”

"Unfilial piety is great, that person probably just wants to create my regrets without a queen, so that the clan elders will dispel their thoughts, but he didn't think that I would plan and create a reputation for himself as a wife." Xiao Song smiled faintly.

Xiao Song's 'sex' is not suitable to be a patriarch, he is not a person who likes to be bound by rules, and he has already formed this kind of 'sex', being a patriarch, it seems that he has a lot of power, but for him, he is far from being as comfortable as playing politics.

As the patriarch, he must be able to set an example for the clansmen in all aspects, Xiao Song's wife's life is a very fatal shortcoming, so he will calculate.

Ran Yan noticed a point in his words, pursed his lips slightly, and was silent for a moment before saying, "Among those who died, .................."

You killed it yourself!

Xiao Song didn't deny it, just. looked at her quietly, with a glimmer of hope hidden in her dark eyes.

"That's it." Ran Yan sighed and said, "I won't be unhappy with you because of the past, but before you do this in the future, discuss it with me." ”

The corners of Xiao Song's lips raised slightly: "Okay." ”

The two of them walked around the house all morning, and at noon, a 'waiter' came over and invited the two to dinner.

Needless to say, the princess presides over the feed, which is naturally not comparable to ordinary people, but Ran Yan's food is tasteless, and you can't talk during the banquet, but occasionally when the elders ask, you must put down the chopsticks and listen to the words before you can continue to eat.

Dugu naturally didn't have anything important to say, asking her was just to test her.

Fortunately, before getting married, Xing Niang had already taught everything in detail, and with Ran Yan's always calm expression, she did a very decent job. won the praise of the Xiao family, and also accepted a little.

After lunch, Xiao Song and Ran Yan said goodbye and left the old mansion.

Song Guogong is going back to Qizhou tomorrow, so the Dugu clan is busy with dots, and he has never kept it, only to reassure Xiao Song that the gift for returning to the 'door' in three days has been prepared... will definitely not snub the Ran family.

This does not mean that the Dugu family is very optimistic about Ran Yan, but because of her 'nature', the family is to have the bearing of the family, why bother with those small 'door' households? Xiao Shi is not bad at returning to the 'door' ceremony, she feels that if she cares about this kind of thing, it is not to embarrass Ran Yan, but to embarrass herself.

Ran Yan naturally understood, and she was glad that her mother-in-law loved face so much, so... At least everyone is better off.

"Aung knows what you're doing?" In the mansion before, Ran Yan didn't have time to ask clearly, Xiao Song gave himself the reputation of a wife, did Song Guogong know.

Xiao Song smiled and said, "If he knew, he wouldn't have to turn the sky upside down, he just thought that the 'servant' concubine had made me unhappy, so he punished her too much and took her 'life'." ”

A lowly 'servant' concubine's 'sex' life is not worth anything, let alone killing one, it is killing a dozen, and the Xiao family also has a way to pass this matter aside. The reason why Xiao Song does things is the most important thing.

"But it's not just because of this one thing today, I have recently done something that is not good for Wu Wangke's reputation, so he asked me about it, and he became angry when he didn't agree with him." Xiao Song half-leaned on the sides, his fingers gently rubbed the edge of the white porcelain teapot, and smiled meaninglessly, "It's not once or twice, it was said that the father and son pinched it, but in fact, even in the court, only Wei Zheng dared to scuffle with him regardless of it, I am his son, where can I do such a disobedient thing." ”

In other words, every time you get beaten.

Xiao Song is usually awe-inspiring outside, copying people's heads and killing people's heads, and the people in Chang'an are in awe of ghosts and gods, who knows, but the dignified Xiao 'servant' Lang was beaten because of his disagreement with his father's political views, and he was rough by the old man at home, and he couldn't fight back.

No matter how scheming Xiao Song is, when he meets Song Guogong, who is a little bit of a hit, he can only admit it, that old man, as soon as the anger comes up, no matter what you want to say, first beat up and purge your breath. Xiao Song is his son, and Lao Tzu taught his son that it is natural and righteous, and he doesn't need to endure it.

"Did it hurt anywhere?" Ran Yan's tone was soft.

Xiao Song climbed up the pole and said with a smile, "Don't you see it at night" I don't want to see it, so you can sleep in the study tonight. Ran Yan looked at him and frowned, raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Don't you envy Fang Xiang sleeping in the study?" ”

"The days will be long in the future, and it will not be too late to sleep in the study in the future!" Xiao Song held her hand and said trickly.

Ran Yan slapped his paw.

The two were making a fuss, the carriage had already arrived in front of the inner 'door' of the house, Xiao Song jumped out of the car, Ran Yan had just gotten out of the 'door', his waist was tight, but he was stopped by Xiao Song and hugged him.

"Tsk, I really envy the dead." On the steps of the inner 'door' road, Liu Qingsong clipped his hands and stared at the two people with a lewd face.
