Chapter Seventy-Seven: Compromise

When Xiao Huan came back to discuss, the daylily was going to be cold.

What's more, Xiahou Yu couldn't imagine that Xiao Huan was a manly man involved in the affairs of the inner house.

She nodded perfunctorily and sent Xiao Huan away.

After returning to the house and thinking for a long time, he asked Du Hui to discuss the matter: "...... We were in such a hurry that I thought I would be able to return to Jiankang City as long as I came to worship my lord. "Then, like in the previous life, I don't have to set foot in this place again," Now it seems that the affairs of the Xiao family are quite complicated. I have to find a way to inquire about the relationship between the Xiao family, especially the relationship between the governor and his second uncle, and what is Xiao Han's position and attitude. ”

Du Hui was stunned and hesitated: "Those who can serve in the manor are all servants, but I am afraid that it will be difficult to inquire in a short time." ”

The implication is to ask Xiahou Yu if he can use some special means.

Xiahou Yu didn't care much about the rest of the Xiao family. She laughed, "Ask as much as you can!" I'm also curious. ”

Especially why the relationship between Xiao Xi and Xiao Yan before Xiao Yan's death was okay, but after Xiao Yan's death, the relationship between Xiao Xi and Xiao Huan was on the same level, and Xiao Xing obviously liked Xiao Xi's uncle very much, and Wu also said that he couldn't figure out why Xiao Xi did this, which shows that Xiao Xi is not a particularly bad person, and may even get along well with his nephews.

Du Hui bowed down and retreated.

Xiahou Yu saw that Ah Liang and the others were still arranging the inner room, so she walked around the courtyard outside.

As Wu said, there are many small houses with beautiful scenery, and it is a courtyard with a courtyard, which can be turned into a very large courtyard when opened, and when the door is closed, it can become a small courtyard that only allows seven or eight people to live, and the scenery of each courtyard is different, twists and turns, rings and stacks, no one leads it, and it is very easy to get lost.

She walked and walked, not knowing where she had gone, but she still called a maid on duty in the courtyard to lead her, and then she went back to the main room smoothly.

Xiahou Yu stood under the corridor of the main hall, looking at the lush hosta flowers in the courtyard, and felt that it would be a little difficult to fill this courtyard with people as Wu said.

She asked the maid who led her out, "Who takes care of these courtyards on weekdays?" ”

The maid said respectfully, "It will be taken care of by the grandmothers in charge." ”

Xiahou Yu pursed his lips.

If the house is not occupied for a long time, it will slowly decay.

In his previous life, Xiao Huan was in Xiangyang and Jiankang most of the time, and he didn't go back to Gusu twice, I don't know what his mood was when he saw this mansion slowly decline?

Xiahou Yu went back and took a nap for a while, Xiao Huan sent someone to bring a letter to her, saying that there was something delayed at Uncle Thirteen's, and dinner would not come, so let her not wait. The little guy who was ordered to bring her the letter also said: "Erlangjun and Qilangjun are also at the thirteenth Langjun." The Governor asked me to tell you. ”

In other words, several of them are fighting again.

Maybe the sacrifice will come to fruition tomorrow.

Xiahou Yu nodded, Ah Liang rewarded the copper coin, and ordered someone to send the little guy out.

She wondered if she should go to dinner with Wu.

Du Hui is back.

At this moment, Xiahou Yu couldn't leave if he wanted to.

The two closed the door and talked in the side hall.

Du Hui said: "I didn't ask any about why the governor and Erlangjun fell out of harmony. However, according to the servants, the cause was the governor's third uncle, who is said to have died violently outside, when everyone was preparing for the funeral and the elders of the clan came forward to write the memorial text, but the governor's father did not allow Saburojun's coffin to enter the door. It is said that San Langjun has a vicious disease and cannot be transmitted to others, and the funeral is held at the ancestral grave of the Xiao family. died of a vicious illness, and there was no third person in the clan who went to the funeral except Erlangjun and Shichiro-kun. Then the governor's father died. Erlangjun began to compete with the governor for the position of head of the family.

"Shichiro-kun has always stood by and watched, and the two don't help each other.

"Later, the governor became the head of the family, Erlangjun was not convinced, but Qilangjun came forward to help say Xiang, and Erlangjun did not continue to stir up trouble."

Xiahou Yu has seen too many strange things in the palace. Even if some of them haven't seen it, they have heard the old ladies in the palace talk about it. I didn't hear the old ladies talk about it, but I also read it in some miscellaneous notes in the palace.

She propped her elbows and cheeks and said: "In other words, on the surface, the two of them are caused by the death of the governor's third uncle, and the lord does not allow the governor's third uncle to be buried at home." ”

Du Hui nodded.

She is also a person who has accumulated years, and said in a low voice: "I have already sent someone to investigate the cause of the death of the third uncle of the Dudu." ”

Xiahou Yu nodded, put this matter aside for the time being, had dinner alone, and then went to greet the Wu family.

Xiao Xing is at Wu's.

It seems that he came to accompany Wu for dinner.

Wu smiled and took Xiahou Yu's hand and knelt down in front of the desk, and said softly: "I heard that you had something to do with Ah Huan before, so I didn't let you come over for dinner." Later, I heard that Ah Huan couldn't come back for dinner because of something, and I was about to go over with Ah Xing to have a look at you, but I didn't expect you to come first. ”

Xiahou Yu hurriedly said a few polite words to the Wu family.

Xiao Xing was restless next to him.

Wu looked a little angry and glared at Xiao Xing.

Xiao Xing hung his head and stopped moving.

Xiahou Yu looked funny, and when she got up to say goodbye, the Wu family sent Xiao Xing to send her off, she simply said, "Ah Xing, what happened to you just now?" ”

Xiao Xing's face was slightly red, and he thought for a long time before he said sullenly: "I know that Brother A, Second Uncle, and Seventh Uncle are all at Uncle Thirteen, I really want to go and have a look, but my mother is not allowed!" ”

Xiahou Yu pretended not to know and said: "I see that you have a good relationship with the second uncle, why is the relationship between the second uncle and Ah Huan tense?" ”

Xiao Xing said a little uncomfortably: "The main reason is that the elder brother does not change the rules set by his father before his death, and the second uncle feels that the elder brother is dull, and the relationship between the two is not very good." ”

"Then do you think it's your brother or your second uncle?" Xiahou Yu continued.

Xiao Xing stumbled for a long time, and didn't say why.

It seems that Xiao Xing also feels that Xiao Huan is wrong in this matter.

Could this be related to the fact that Xiao Xing had been staying in Gusu in his previous life and was unwilling to go to Jiankang City?

Xiahou Yu's mind was spinning quickly, and he didn't figure out the reason for a long time, but fortunately, Xiao Huan came back earlier than the time agreed with her, and when he came back, he was smiling, and at a glance, he knew that the trip to the thirteenth uncle's house was very smooth.

Xiao Huan is not a procrastinator, he sat down and drank a cup of tea and talked about the afternoon: "The person that the second uncle believes in the most is still the seventh uncle, and the second uncle has promised his father to worship the eldest three animals on the sacrifice day, but he is unwilling to serve as the main sacrifice, and he may have to ask the thirteenth uncle to come forward at that time." ”

"This is already the best result!" Xiahou Yu was not stingy with his praise, and said with a smile, "Then the matter of opening the ancestral hall tomorrow has also been discussed?" ”

Xiao Huan nodded, took out a long list and handed it to Xiahou Yu: "The charter is all here, you take a look first, you are familiar with it, and you don't have to be confused tomorrow." ”

Because of her own experience, Xiahou Yu often has to preside over banquets in the palace, and she is the most familiar with etiquette.

Glancing at the list handed over by Xiao Huan, she basically knew what the arrangement would be for tomorrow, but what she didn't expect was that the last few pages of this list were written with a list of the Xiao clan people she was going to see tomorrow.
