Chapter 41: The Strong in the Jar
The Xiao family, who has suffered a loss, cannot give up, even if Xiao Yan is the commander of the Heavenly Blade and has Qi Zhiqiu's support behind him.
On the other hand, the Xia family, which has almost no presence in Tiandu, has been pushed to the forefront.
After Xiao Yan moved his mother's remains to the Xia Cemetery, the Xia Cemetery, which was usually deserted and desolate, immediately became a hot place in Tiandu, and hundreds of thousands of powerful people from all walks of life in Tiandu came one after another, they obviously came to Xiao Yan, but the name of the Xia family was also frequently mentioned.
There is nothing more warm and cold than this.
More than ninety percent of the visiting guests, Xiao Yan, did not know each other, and had never seen them, there was no doubt that they were aiming at his name as the commander of the Heavenly Blade, and at the strength of him to dare to fight with the Xiao family and still retreat.
He is a very powerful rising star, and anyone with a brain knows how to make friends as soon as possible.
Among them, there are actually people from the Kong family, which is a bit unexpected by Xiao Yan, in his opinion, the Kong family has suffered a big loss in Modu, and he should hate him to the bone.
"Lord Xiao, Kong Zhengrong and I are not the same kind of people, please don't confuse us. "The person who came is called Kong Tianqi, and Kong Zhengrong is cousins, but it is obvious that the relationship between the two is very delicate.
Xiao Yan still has some understanding of the open and secret battles within the big family, but because he is not much interested in it, he rarely studies it, and after listening to Kong Tianqi's words, he suddenly realized.
"I see, then I'm relieved. Xiao Yan smiled, "I don't know what Brother Kong has to say." ”
"I can't talk about advice!" Kong Tianqi was still quite humble and waved his hand, "I have listened to a lot of stories about Lord Xiao, and I admire Lord Xiao's character and actions very much, I can't help but be cheeky and want to make friends with Lord Xiao, and I hope that Lord Xiao will not dislike it." ”
Remember http://m for a second.
"Brother Kong is too polite, and I also like to make friends. Xiao Yan smiled faintly.
He doesn't have a good impression of the five great families, but he doesn't stretch out his hand and don't hit the smiling person, Kong Tianqi puts his posture so low, it doesn't hurt to make friends.
Kong Tianqi is also a human spirit, and he saw that Xiao Yan's attitude was not very enthusiastic, and he was not in a hurry, so he smiled and said: "I have one more thing, with Lord Xiao's strength, I may not care, but I think it is still necessary to remind me, I heard that the genius of the Xiao family will come back tomorrow, he is a powerful character, you have to be careful." ”
"You mean Xiao Yi?" Xiao Yan saw the figure of a little kid floating in front of him. To be honest, he doesn't have much prejudice against Xiao Yi, but he doesn't like it either.
Xiao Yi has been thoughtful since he was a child, like a little adult, his joy and anger are invisible, and it is difficult to know what he is thinking in his heart.
But Xiao Yi is indeed a genius, especially in mathematics, with first-class spatial thinking and logical reasoning ability, and he doesn't need to face the drawings to build the most complex building blocks, and in the end it is not bad at all.
The boy who was called a genius by everyone in the Xiao family should have grown into an adult by now, Xiao Yan secretly sighed in his heart.
"Hehe, I was sloppy, Lord Xiao should be very familiar with him. ”
Kong Tianqi smiled self-deprecatingly, according to the information he had gathered, Xiao Yan and his father Xiao Dingkun and stepmother Ye Meilun were on the same footing, so they naturally hated their child Xiao Yi to the core, and of course they would pay attention to Xiao Yi's whereabouts.
"I really don't know, thanks for the reminder. Xiao Yan has never paid attention to Xiao Yi.
But his denial was just a gesture in Kong Tianqi's eyes, and Kong Tianqi smiled very understandingly: "You're welcome, I heard that Xiao Yi is very insidious and powerful, and I am afraid that Lord Xiao will suffer, so I came over to remind me affectionately, and now I can rest assured that Lord Xiao is confident." ”
The Kong family and the Xiao family have never dealt with each other, and there are many places where they compete in secret, and it is normal for Kong Tianqi to run over.
Of course, if Xiao Yan was not the commander of the Heavenly Blade, and there was no Qi Zhiqiu behind him, these people from famous families would not have come over.
In addition to Kong Tianqi, there are more other large and small characters, Xiao Yan did not meet them one by one, only had a few polite words with some colleagues who came to worship, and most of them were handed over to Xia Luo to send away.
It was only now that Xiao Yan realized that the status of the Heavenly Blade in Great Xia was much higher than he imagined, almost all the major yamen in the Heavenly Capital had come, and even the Criminal Law Hall had sent representatives, and it was Yun Feiyang who had crossed paths with him.
Compared with when he was in Tianfu, Yun Feiyang became much more mature and stable, as if there had never been any unpleasantness between the two.
This kind of social interaction is the most tiring, Xiao Yan doesn't like these very much, but fortunately, Ivy takes care of it for him, she copes with it decently and saves him a lot of trouble.
In fact, by the end of the song and the curtain came down on this day, Ivy's name also spread in Tiandu, and they all said that Mrs. Tianjian Commander was a beautiful, dignified, noble and generous character, and even Kong Tianqi was convinced that there would be a place for Ivy in the top circle of Tiandu in the future.
Xia family.
Everyone didn't sleep, and with unprecedented excitement, they waited for Xiao Yan's family to come back from the cemetery after the ceremony.
In fact, many clansmen of the Xia family participated in Xia Hui's grave relocation ceremony, and the old man Xia was an elder, he was old, and his health was not very good, so he didn't go. There are still many Xia family members who can't get out of the way, but they all put off socializing and go home early after finishing their affairs, wanting to see Xiao Yan as soon as possible.
"They're back!" Xia Yuanheng, the little character who was guarding the door, suddenly shouted excitedly.
The little guy looked like a tiger, and after shouting, he ran towards the team and threw himself into Charlotte's arms, "Grandpa, Dad said that Uncle is back, where is it?"
He stared around with big round eyes, and soon saw Amy, and suddenly he couldn't take his eyes off it.
Don't look at him small, you can see at a glance that Amy and the pair of men and women next to her are today's protagonists, and they are curious and want to be close.
"Hey, my name is Amy, what's your name?" Amy greeted him generously.
"My name is Xia Yuanheng, why is your surname Ai not Xia?" Xia Yuanheng was a little puzzled, shouldn't his uncle also be surnamed Xia.
Everyone couldn't help but laugh when they listened to the interesting conversation between the two little guys.
Xiao Yan also smiled, he felt the long-lost family affection, and then looked at the lintel of the Xia family not far away, it was the same as in his memory, but it seemed to be shorter and a little broken, it seemed that the Xia family had not lived very well over the years.
"Xiao Hao!"
Before entering the door, many Xia family members ran out, and after seeing Xiao Yan, they came forward to greet him cordially and emotionally, telling him some things about his mother's return to his parents' house many years ago.
As he spoke, he walked inside.
Although the Xia family is not as good as in the past, it has also been generous in the end, and the yard is full of twenty or thirty acres, which is rare in the sky, and it can see the prosperity and glory of the past.
A pergola was set up in the courtyard, and more than a dozen tables were set up, which was filled with a strong festive atmosphere.
