In the afternoon, many families and followers settled in a mansion in Xiaojiazhuang. After two months of long journey, the people on the boat were already tired. After packing up their residences, they were not out and stayed in the mansion to rest.

Under the leadership of Xiao Ting, Xu Buling came to the Xiao family's ancestral home with Mrs. Lu.

The Xiao family's ancestral home is very large, and they live in the Xiao family's direct descendant. Because the incense of the eldest family has withered, except for Xiao Chuyang and his two sons, only Xiao Qi is left, and there are not many people.

Mrs. Lu is the daughter-in-law of the Xiao family. It is not the first time she has come to the Xiao family. She is wearing a blue long dress and has not many accessories on her body. She looks solemn and grand, but her expression is very strange.

Xu Buling walked beside Mrs. Lu and thought for a while: "Aunt Lu, don't be so nervous, have a natural expression."

Mrs. Lu seemed to have forgotten the last kiss. Seeing that Xiao Ting, who was leading the way, didn't pay attention, she pinched her hand on Xu Buling's waist:

"Who are you not good to marry? You have to marry Xiao Qi, how should you speak later."

Xu Buling chuckled: "It's a good match..."

Mrs. Lu sighed, Xu Buling insisted on marrying Xiao Qi, but she couldn't stop her, and said softly:

"A lifelong event is not a joke. If it weren't for that dead girl in Xiang'er, I would definitely not have come..."

"hehe……"

Within a few words, he came to the living room of the Xiao family.

The Xiao family came out to entertain guests with the uncle Xiao Mo of the second house and the butler Hua Jingting. Xiao Qi went out on the grounds that there was something important. She came to propose marriage seriously, and the lady came out to talk to her by herself, so naturally she didn't say anything.

As the eldest son of the eldest son, Xiao Ting wanted to have a "brother nephew as his father" to help his aunt make the decision, but unfortunately he didn't even have a seat and was kicked out.

Mrs. Lu followed Xu Buling, and her main identity was that the matchmaker was in the middle. Since Xu Buling wanted to marry Xiao Qi, she agreed and naturally tried her best to make peace and took out King Su's letter of marriage proposal.

However, the head of the Xiao family is Miss Xiao herself. Even Xiao Xiang has to listen to Xiao Qi for such a major matter. Although Xiao Mo in the second house is Xiao Qi's elder, he is not qualified to make decisions. As long as Xiao Qi doesn't speak, no one dares to agree. Of course, he dares not give up King Su's marriage directly. They have been having family relationships for a long time, but in the end, Xu Buling stays in Xiao's house for a few days first, and then come to have a detailed discussion after Xiao Qi is finished.

Just as Mrs. Lu was trying to marry Xu Buling, Xiao Ting took advantage of the fact that the Xiao family was busy receiving Xu Buling and had no time to care about him. He used the excuse of going to see how the Xu family's entourage settled, and ran out of the Xiao family's ancestral home.

The maid knew his young master's temper and followed behind to stop him:

"Young Master, don't run around, let the head of the family discover you, don't think about going out next month."

Xiao Ting shook the folding fan in the cold wind, his face full of refreshing spirit:

"What are you afraid of? When Xu Buling marrys his aunt, I am the helmsman of the Xiao family. Who dares to punish me to copy books?"

The maid pulled Xiao Ting's sleeve: "Young Master, if you become the helmsman, the Xiao family will be in a shipwreck."

"How could it be..." Xiao Ting was a little unhappy: "Young Master, when did I do a loss-making business? Isn't this thing about betting on who has the right vision? My betting is not just about accurate..."

Seeing that the maid couldn't persuade her, she could only sigh: "Young Master, you have no money, you can't even pay on credit if you go out. I'll lose face to the Xiao family."

Xiao Ting showed a bit of cunning in his eyes and chuckled, "Isn't it just money? I'll marry my aunt to Xu Buling. His Xu family is rich enough to rival the country. It's natural for me to be filial to some money..."

"Ah?" The maid trotted to her: "Young master, do you ask the little prince for money?"

"What's wrong with me having a lifelong relationship with him?"

Xiao Ting waved his hand and asked the maid to wait outside the mansion. He entered the mansion sponsored by Xu Buling alone. He spoke to the waiting nightingale, and was led to Xu Buling's study room to wait.

The study room was just cleaned up, and there were no decorations, only a few weapons were placed on the desk.

Xiao Ting shook his fan and did nothing. He walked to the long spear and water dragon yin to look at it. After just a moment of looking, he saw a phoenix-headed golden hairpin falling from the table, which looked very familiar.

Xiao Ting was slightly shocked. He grew up in Chang'an since he was a child and rolled around in front of his aunt for ten years. He looked so familiar with the golden hairpin that only the queen could wear.

Xiao Ting closed the folding fan, squatted down and picked up the golden hairpin, looking at it. The more he looked, the more he looked like his dead aunt's hairpin. Before he could even doubt, a cold wind blew open the window, and a red figure flashed by.

"ah--"

Xiao Ting screamed, sat on the ground and retreated, looking at the window where the figure flashed just now, his face turned pale and full of horror:

"Come on! Help-"

There was a dead silence in the huge mansion, and no one responded.

Step-step-step-step-

The beating sound rang out from outside the door, revealing a pair of white hands and large red sleeves.

"Aunt? Ah..."

Xiao Ting was so scared that he was completely shattered. He crawled directly under the table and said with a trembling voice:

"Auntie, I'm wrong! I'll burn more paper money for you, don't come out..."

"Xiao Ting~~~"

The light at the door was a little dim, and Xiao Xianger jumped out, and a lot of powder was applied to her beautiful cheeks. She was snow-white and looked at her nephew who was hiding under the table with an expressionless face, her voice was ethereal:

"I died so miserably~..."

"Aunt, I was wrong..."

Xiao Ting blocked his eyes in a hurry, and didn't dare to look up at all. Tears were scared out.

Xiao Xiang'er jumped into the threshold and looked down at her trembling stupid nephew:

"Where are you wrong?"

"I'm wrong everywhere! Aunt, please spare me, I'll never get into trouble again..."

"Do you need to study hard in the future?"

"Have your heart, I've been thinking about it all these days, and I've memorized it..."

"Record the Book of Rites, memorize it once..."

"It is enough to make a name for the sake of constitution and seek kindness... If jade is not carved, it will not become a weapon; if people do not learn, they will not know..."

??

Xiao Xiang'er was stunned, and a little surprise flashed in her eyes. Unexpectedly, this idiot really knew it, and her anger disappeared a lot, and she continued:

"Enough, I'll go find Xiao Qi, where is she?"

"My aunt hid in Linhu Villa outside the village. Go and find her quickly... don't say what I said..."

"Well. I pleaded with the King of Hell before I came back. I leaked the news and lost my life. Don't talk nonsense."

“Okay…”

Xiao Xiang'er asked about Xiao Qi's whereabouts, and was afraid that Xiao Ting would be really silly, so she no longer made things difficult for him. She turned around and jumped out again.

Xiao Ting shivered, opened his eyes a crack, and found that Xiao Xiang'er was about to leave, hesitated for a while and spoke again:

"Aunt, how are you doing below? I actually miss you so much, my aunt doesn't tell any truth..."

Xiao Xiang'er snorted faintly: "It's very good."

"How are the eldest brother and uncle doing?"

“…”

When talking about his late brother and eldest nephew, Xiao Xianger's eyes were depressed and she didn't say anything more...
