"Come back to your senses......" Looking at the stunned looks of his younger brothers and sisters, Xue Huaiyuan rubbed the top of their heads funny.

"No, big brother, how do you know so much? Could it be that your father opened a small stove for you in private? Xue Huaijun followed the eldest brother's hand, leaned in front of the eldest brother, and asked in shock.

"What nonsense, after I moved out of the inner house three years ago, I rarely saw my father, I couldn't see him, how can I open a small stove, I just saw my father on weekdays, and you weren't there that time?

Besides, my father and the people sometimes talked about things, but they didn't avoid us, and they listened and observed more, and found that it was difficult? Xue Huaiyuan pushed away his energetic, sweaty younger brother and took his fragrant and soft sister into his arms.

"Difficult!" The brother and sister sighed together.

Seeing that the unlucky brother was about to come this way again, he hurriedly asked, "Then tell me what you observed." ”

Sure enough, when I saw my younger brother sit down, he began to think and said: "In our Xue family, after the children of the family are born, there will be four attendants, two ten-year-old maids or maids, girls with maids, boys with maids, a nurse, and a rough mother-in-law. When he was two years old, he was weaned and said goodbye to his nursing mother, and from two to ten years old, there were three attendants, two maids or servants, and one rough mother-in-law. At the age of ten, two more ten-year-old maids or servants were added, for a total of four maids or maids, and a rough mother-in-law, for a total of five attendants. In addition, the descendants of the maid and the rough maid also belong to the master.

The children of the family, male or female, when they reach the age of three, must live alone in the annex of the main house; When he was eight years old, he had to move to the boundary between the inner and outer houses, away from his parents.

But in other families, not to mention that the number of attendants is several times more than ours, that is, they all live with their parents until they are eight years old.

These family arrangements are probably also for the Xianyuan Conference and exercise our independence. ”

Xue Huaiyuan touched his brother's head complimentally, "That's right!" ”

Xue Huaijun winked at his sister proudly.

Xue Huaijin rolled his eyes speechlessly, turned his head away from him, and looked at Xue Huaiyuan, "Big brother, do you think anyone in our family can be selected this time?" ”

Xue Huaijun hurriedly said, "There will definitely be, compared with a hundred years ago, now the descendants and collateral lines add up, dozens of times, and this hundred years our Xue family pays attention to cultivating children, the essence is not much more expensive, and the overall quality is much higher than the children of other families, we alone top a group of children of other families, a hundred years ago we all had six of them passed the primary election, even if it is still six, this time we can pass at least four!" ”

Xue Huaiyuan: "Huaijun is right, there will definitely be this time." ”

Xue Huaijin whispered: "Actually, I want to know, will there be qualified people among the three of us?"

……

All three were silent.

Xue Huaijun broke the silence: "Actually, I want to have qualifications, but I don't want to have qualifications."

Xue Huaiyuan's expression was solemn: "If you leave, it will take at least two hundred years to come back"

"I may not be able to come back yet...... Xue Huaijin finished speaking, and irritably tugged at the peony petals beside him.

"It's useless for us to think about this, there are few qualified people, and we have to pass the test, last time there were only more than 3,000 people taken away from eight countries, and more than 700 people were taken away from our Yan country, and then it was divided into our family, and it was distributed to us, the possibility is too small!" Xue Huaiyuan sighed.

Xue Huaijun said: "Also, it's useless to think about this, if you have, if you don't, if you don't, you won't change because of our thoughts."

Xue Huaijin: "Then let's think about it first, how should we deal with the two situations of having qualifications and not being qualified."

Xue Huaiyuan: "If you don't have qualifications, don't be discouraged, you can make contributions here, individuals have their own ways to go, but their lifestyles are different."

Xue Huaijun: "I can also accompany my parents and relatives to fulfill my filial piety."

Xue Huaijin: "The continuation of the family's inheritance also needs us."

Looking at the dignified expressions of his younger brothers and sisters, Xue Huaiyuan comforted: "It is a good thing to go to cultivate immortals with the masters. Without qualifications, that is, to continue with the original life.

If you have qualifications, you should also be cautious when you go there, there is a danger to your life, which means that the road to cultivating immortals is not easy to walk. ”

Xue Huaijin: "When a person is in a completely unfamiliar place, he must be strong, his family is always there, but he can't go home."

Xue Huaiyuan: "The most important thing is to live, and the heart of guarding against others is indispensable!"

Xue Huaijun: "It's so troublesome, our family has been together, can't we?"

Xue Huaijin: "That is, why face this choice, when the family is together, either don't go, or go!"

Xue Huaiyuan: "That's why many people give up every time."

On a day off, the three Xue Huaijin brothers and sisters accompanied their parents to enjoy the scenery in the garden, and came to the pavilion together, where the maids had already set up tea and fruit snacks.

"Tell me, what's the matter? It's rare to see you so honestly with us all the time. After Xue Hongxuan sat down, he poured a cup of osmanthus tea for his wife unhurriedly, and poured himself a cup of Biluochun, and then looked at the abnormal brother and sister.

The three brothers and sisters, you look at me, I look at you, in the end, Xue Huaijun couldn't bear the pressure of his brother and sister's eyes, looked at his father, and said worriedly: "Daddy, mother, mother......"

"Don't be so sensual, have something to say!" Xue Hongxuan interrupted in disgust.

"Mother~" Xue Huaijun looked at Zhou Huiyun aggrievedly.

Zhou Huiyun was leisurely drinking tea, and when she saw this, she said that she was not participating.

"Let's talk about it," Xue Huaiyuan stepped forward to clear the siege. When Xue Huaijun saw his brother on top, he hurriedly pulled his sister to sit down, and took a piece of snack for his sister and himself, and motioned for his sister to eat quickly.

Xue Huaiyuan looked at this scene and instantly wanted to kill himself who had just relented.

At this point, I can only turn around decisively, out of sight, not upset. He continued to say to his father, "My son is a little confused and wants to ask his father. ”

Seeing that his son was so formal, Xue Hongxuan put down the teacup and raised his hand to signal him to continue.

Zhou Huiyun heard that the atmosphere was wrong, and also looked up.

Xue Huaijin and Xue Huaijun stopped frolicking and looked at their father and eldest brother a little nervously.

"I listened to my father before, the preliminary selection of the Xianyuan Conference has begun, and it is only three months. Calculate the time, as of today, it has been two and a half months, there is only half a month left, the preliminary selection is about to end, the family ordered us not to go out in recent months, we don't know how the outside world is, and the family has not heard that the clan was selected, this is not very reasonable, even if the three of our brothers and sisters are not selected, but it should not be that no one in the entire family is selected! Xue Huaiyuan asked respectfully.

The three brothers and sisters also hesitated for a long time, and decided to ask their parents, the reason why they hesitated was also because cultivating immortals means parting, or the kind that will never be seen, afraid that their inquiries will cause their parents to be sad, but as the days passed, the young man's curiosity and yearning could not be suppressed.
