Chapter Seventy-Three:-for-tat

Xiahou Yu was very curious.

What can make Xiao Huan have no choice but to endure it?

In this way, Xiao Huan is not as omnipotent and powerful as she imagined in her previous life!

She sat quietly beside the Wu family, listening to Xiao Xi and Xiao Huan discussing Xiao Yan's sacrifice.

“…… Five years of small sacrifices, you are busy going to Xiangyang again, according to me, it is still according to previous years, the small three animals, the first and the fifth, as good as in previous years. Xiao Xi said lightly and took a sip of tea.

Xiao Han didn't speak, looked at Xiao Huan, and looked like he was waiting for Xiao Huan to make a statement.

The small three animals refer to pigs, fish, and chickens, and it is usually enough for people to worship their ancestors. But this year, Xiao Huan was promoted to the governor of Xiangjing, and the official worshiped the hussar general, and was the second grade, although it was not as good as the previous life, it was also considered to be promoted to the lord, shouldn't he pay a good tribute to his ancestors and worship it in a big way?

Xiahou Yu was secretly strange in his heart.

Before Xiao Huan asked her to accompany the Wu family back, she thought that because Xiao Huan had a future, the Xiao family would take advantage of Xiao Yan's death day to hold a large-scale sacrifice, return to her hometown, and publicize it.

And Xiao Xi's words are clearly accusing Xiao Huan of having no merits in the court, and there is no need to alarm the ancestors of the Xiao family.

Hearing Xiao Xi's words, Xiahou Yu instantly felt a little uncomfortable.

If she hadn't used Xiao Huan's strategy in her previous life to calculate Xiao Huan, Xiao Huan had won the position of a general, and she was a dignified and upright product, would the Xiao family dare not sacrifice Xiao Yan ceremoniously?

Did the Xiao family hold a large-scale sacrifice in the previous life?

Xiahou Yu couldn't remember it clearly.

She was angry with Xiao Huan at that time, and she didn't notice the scene here at all.

Xiahou Yu also looked towards Xiao Huan.

Xiao Huan's face was as usual, the corners of his mouth were obviously with a faint smile as just now, and his face was also very kind, but inexplicably, Xiahou Yu felt that Xiao Huan was not very happy.

He still had a faint smile on his face, and said softly: "It's okay if it's normal." It's just that this year is my father's fifth anniversary, and when I am going to Xiangyang and Jingzhou to take office, I still need some powerful arms around me. I think this sacrifice is still made of three animals, right? ”

The big three animals refer to cattle, sheep, and pigs.

When Xiao Huan said this, he seemed to be hiding a needle in the cotton, and Xiao Huan's eyes looked a little sharp.

Xiao Xi retorted without hesitation: "There are all kinds of things in the DPRK and China, I think it's better for you to keep a low profile at this time." ”

Xiao Huan did not back down at all, and said: "No matter how complicated the court affairs are, if I don't even dare to worship my father, what's the point of being an official?" ”

Xiao Xi sneered: "What merit does the eldest brother have? Aren't you afraid of outsiders laughing at you when you act like this? ”

Xiahou Yu felt a chill in his neck when he heard this.

In his previous life, the first thing Xiao Huan did after being named the Great Sima was to let Xiahou Youfu posthumously crown his father.

Xiao Huan's smile gradually faded, but the green tendons on his forehead appeared.

He glanced at Xiahou Yu and hesitated for a moment, but soon, his expression became cold and resolute, and he said coldly: "A wife is honored by her husband, and a father is valued by a son." Isn't my father worthy of a great sacrifice if he has me? ”

Does Xiao Huan feel that he is embarrassed in front of her?

Xiahou Yu guessed.

Xiao Xi sneered and said, "Today, the Great General Lu is respected, right? Don't forget, who mixed Wu Zhong into this way back then. ”

Xiao Huan's face turned blue and said: "The Xiao family and the Lu family cannot be separated, and the second uncle is no longer forbearant and retreating, but I am afraid that the Lu family will not have any compassion." ”

The implication is that Xiao Xi did this to curry favor with the Lu family.

That's a bit heart-wrenching.

Xiahou Yu looked at Xiao Huan in surprise.

She had never seen Xiao Huan who was so angry and even rude.

It turned out that Xiao Huan also made mistakes.

He's an ordinary person, too!

Is this a new experience?

Xiahou Yu muttered in his heart.

Xiao Xun slapped the case with a "snap", and his already gloomy appearance was even more calm at this time, and said, "Since you have made up your mind, what did you invite me to do?" I am your uncle and the second son in the family, no official and no lord, you can do whatever you want! ”

Xiao Huan ignored Xiao Xi's anger, and said aggressively: "Uncle doesn't want to pay attention to the housework?" Why don't you invite a few elders to see what should be done with this sacrifice? ”

This contradiction is going to be put on the table.

Xiahou Yu hurriedly looked at the Wu family.

I saw Wu's eyes red, clenching his fists tightly, looking angry but could only endure it.

Xiahou Yu was taken aback.

was thinking about whether to persuade Xiao Xi and Xiao Huan.

In her previous life, Xiao Xi still gave her face, and every time she went back to Xiao's house to participate in a red and white wedding, he would bring his wife to greet her.

The thought flashed, Xiao Han had already grabbed Xiao Xi and said, "Zhonghe, don't lose your temper, don't lose your temper." The sister-in-law and the eldest princess are there. You are uncles and nephews, what can't you say well. You're not like an uncle. ”

Zhonghe is Xiao Xi's character.

Xiahou Yu looked at Xiao Xi's appearance, angry is angry, but he should be waiting for the stairs to come down. Xiao Han persuaded a few words, pulled a few times, and he sat down.

Xiao Xing looked at this and that uneasily, his expression a little sad.

Xiao Han personally made a cup of tea for Xiao Huan and Xiao Xi, and persuaded: "Home and everything is prosperous." Take a step back, each of you. Ah Huan, you also have to understand your second uncle's hard work, he is a pragmatic person, I am afraid that you will worship your ancestors in a big way, which will attract the dissatisfaction of the general and not good for your future. It's not that I'm afraid of the Lu family. Think about it, since your father died, who has been busy in this family? And who is supporting you to be an official outside?

"Zhonghe, you also put in your temper. I know it's not easy for you in the past few years, but you are an elder, do you ever slap the table with your juniors without saying a word?

"If Ah Huan is wrong, you can just be patient with him."

After persuading Xiao Huan to persuade Xiao Xi, he discussed the Wu family again: "Sister-in-law, do you think this will work?" The eldest brother's sacrifice, one silk, three lords and five chopsticks, invited the in-laws of the family to watch the ceremony, and the rest did not have to be so public. Now that the eldest princess has returned, the main thing is to tell the ancestors of the Xiao family, and the eldest brother's sacrifice day can be postponed. ”

Wu's clutched hand slowly relaxed.

She glanced at Xiahou Yu embarrassedly, and began to persuade Xiao Huan: "Your seventh uncle is reasonable. Your father's sacrifice can be held at any time. The eldest princess rarely returned to Gusu. Let's first tell the ancestors the good news of your marriage. ”

Xiao Huan frowned, glanced at Xiahou Yu, and quickly lowered his eyelids, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he stopped talking.

Xiahou Yu saw that Xiao Huan was very embarrassed.

He didn't want to compromise with Xiao Xi at all, but Xiao Han's rhetoric made him unable to refute.

Xiao Han is not a loss, and he is the second person in the Xiao family to have business talents after Xiao Yan.

If it was a previous life, Xiahou Yu would not be silent. But in this life, since she is Xiao Huan's ally, she must be unanimous with the outside world, no matter what Xiao Huan said at this time is right or wrong, she has to show her support. Just like in her previous life, Xiao Huan misled her that she would make Xiahou Youyi the emperor, but the final result came out, but she made Xiahou Youfu the emperor. Just like in this life, she misled him that she would not participate in the establishment of the emperor, but in the end, she defended Xiahou Youyi to the throne, Xiao Huan obviously suffered a loss, but he always had to stand with her in front of outsiders.

There is a result, as long as they are still husband and wife, as long as they are still allies, they must defend it.

Xiahou Yu smiled and said, "Didn't the governor invite me back to comfort our family?" These two things shouldn't conflict, right? ”
