Chapter 49 Xiao's Family Affairs
Chapter 49 Xiao Family Affairs
Why did he suddenly come to Haishi...
Shi Jian was a little hesitant, not sure whether she should tell the story about the Liang family. Firstly, it was their private matter, and it seemed like there were some secrets hidden; secondly, they would definitely be worried about her...
"Xiao Jian? Are you hiding something from us?" Gu Danqiu could tell at a glance that his daughter seemed to have something to hide.
Shi Jian quickly made a decision, thinking it would be better to tell them and then remind them to pay attention to it.
The Liang family may not dare to do anything to the Shi family after learning about the marriage between the Shi family and the Fifth family, but maybe they can give them a small lesson or something.
No matter how small it is, she doesn't want her family to bear it.
She briefly talked about Xiao Ruoyun's mother and son in a few words, and also mentioned what happened tonight.
Gu Danqiu and Shi Liren were so frightened that their expressions changed.
"You kid are so ridiculous! How could you get involved in such a dangerous thing?" Gu Danqiu was so anxious that he almost cursed Shi Jian.
"Xiao Jian, you are so ridiculous!" Shi Liren also had a straight face.
Normally, she can do whatever she wants, but when it involves her own safety, how can she act like this?
The couple is now extremely afraid that something will happen to their daughter and she will leave them again.
"Mom and Dad, you may not know me well enough. When I was in Taoist temple, in addition to teaching me to read and write, my master also taught me many other skills."
Shi Jian thought it would be a good idea to take this opportunity to reveal something to them so as not to scare them in the future.
And they are a family now, so there is no need to hide it deliberately. If they know, they may be able to help her in the future.
Shi Liren and Gu Danqiu were stunned for a moment. The two couples looked at each other and asked, "What else did I teach you?"
Besides reading and writing, what else will be taught? Kung Fu?
"There are many. In addition to reading and writing, there are also kung fu and fortune telling..." Shi Jian counted them one by one with his fingers.
The more Shi Liren and Gu Danqiu listened, the more confused they became. It was as if their brains were numb and they couldn't move.
After a long while, Li Li found his voice and stammered: "Xiao Jian, your master... how, how could she... know so much..."
Is this really just a Taoist nun in a small Taoist temple in the mountains? Does she have some hidden identity, like a big shot? Otherwise, how can she even know how to deduce fortune-telling?
Although Master Xiaojian is also a Taoist practitioner, his ability to deduce fortune-telling is not something that everyone in the Taoist community understands. He can also teach others, which shows that his ability is extraordinary.
Shi Jian shook his head, "I don't know either, but Master is indeed very powerful."
She was right, that Taoist nun was indeed very capable.
It's just that she didn't teach Shi Jian these special abilities. Shi Jian wanted to learn them when she was a child, but she refused. She only taught Shi Jian the knowledge that people in the world often learn.
She felt that the Taoist nun did not teach Shi Jian what was hidden in Xuanmen. Otherwise, how could she explain clearly that she had such a special ability but was unwilling to learn it from Shi Jian?
Isn't it an essential skill for Shi Jian to learn this knowledge well? Even if Shi Jian lived in that Taoist temple all her life, it would be good to have more skills, but she refused to teach her.
However, Shi Jian herself didn't seem to think there was any problem, and she never doubted her master. She had great trust in her master. She didn't act like a bad person to sow discord between master and disciple.
Shi Liren and Gu Danqiu had no doubts about her words. After all, Shi Jian had already proven these to a certain extent.
Afraid that they would continue to dwell on this matter, Shi Jian hurriedly left and changed the subject: "Mom and Dad, I'm at Aunt Xiao's place tonight. People from the Liang family should be able to find out my identity soon when they see me. I
I'm worried that they will retaliate and attack you. So in the next few days, I will ask Ah Da and Ah Er to follow you as a precaution."
Gu Danqiu frowned, "How can this be done? You have said so, so they should follow you!"
"Mom, I'm fine, and I believe outsiders will know about our marriage with the fifth family soon. The Liang family doesn't dare to touch me. The Liang family doesn't dare to touch me, but you are different. They might be there for you.
You're angry. So you'd better be careful." Shi Jian looked serious.
Gu Danqiu opened his mouth to say something to refute, but what his daughter said was indeed true. As long as the Liang family was still thinking, they would not directly confront the fifth family, and the truth was already with them.
However, Shi Liren pondered for a while and then said: "Then do what Xiao Jian said first. But I don't have to, there is someone around me who can be used. Let someone follow your brother! It happens that your brother has to go to the capital recently for something.
.”
If the Liang family really has something on their mind, they will most likely take this opportunity to take action.
Gu Danqiu said quickly: "Let's do this, one will follow you and the other will follow the boss. Anyway, I don't have to go to work. I just don't go out much these days."
"Then let's do it! Let one of Ah Da and Ah Er follow his eldest brother and the other follow his father." Shi Jian quickly decided, lest they shirk each other again.
"Then... let's do this for now."
The incident was so sudden that the two of them had no other options for the time being.
The two couples were a little worried when they returned to the room.
"Do you want to talk to the capital about the Liang family?" Gu Danqiu asked.
Shi Liren looked cold, "What did you say? That Xiao Jian might have offended the Liang family? They didn't like Xiao Jian very much and had no feelings for Xiao Jian. If they knew that Xiao Jian had offended the Liang family, they don't know what they would say.
By the way, they told us before everything happened about the fifth family."
When the fifth family was mentioned, Gu Danqiu suddenly became angry.
"Forget it, ignore them. If the Liang family really troubles them, then it's just the interest they gave them!"
Lest they think their family is easy to bully and something like this happens again in the future.
Shi Liren thought more than Gu Danqiu and didn't want to dwell on this matter anymore. He sighed, "Our little Jian is much smarter than we think!"
They were worried before that she would not be able to adapt to this completely different life when she came back, but now it seems that their worries were unnecessary.
Speaking of his daughter, Gu Danqiu couldn't help showing a proud look on his face, and puffed up his chest, "That's right, Xiao Jian is our biological daughter!"
Shi Liren suddenly felt a little confident about his daughter marrying into the fifth family. Maybe Xiao Jian could really bring them some surprises!
Xiao Ruoyun and Liang Haotian didn't dare to think of anything lucky now, and quickly contacted the Xiao family.
Everyone in the Xiao family who received the news was surprised.
When Xiao Ruoyun first married into the Liang family, she had quite frequent contact with her mother's family, but after giving birth to her son, she became more and more indifferent, and finally even stopped contacting her.
The Xiao family initially thought she had gone back on her word.
Because it had been agreed long ago that Xiao Ruoyun’s first child after her marriage, whether male or female, would bear the Xiao family’s surname and inherit the Xiao family. But after she gave birth to the child, she cut off contact with her mother’s family.
Obviously he was going to regret it.
The Xiao family was also very angry. After trying for a long time, there was still no improvement. In the end, they were annoyed and simply followed her wishes and cut off contact with her.
They didn't believe it. If they violated the rules left by their ancestors, something big would really happen to the Xiao family!
After so long, the Xiao family had already given up on their original idea, but Xiao Ruoyun himself took the initiative to contact them again?
The situation of the Xiao family is somewhat special and complicated. Xiao Ruoyun is not the only one with a child. Xiao Ruoyun also has an older brother who is also married and has children of his own.
However, an ancestor of the Xiao family left a last word before his death, and also wrote it into the ancestral precepts, asking the first child of this generation of married women to be named Xiao and inherit the Xiao family.
There is a difference between inheriting the Xiao family and not inheriting the Xiao family.
And Xiao Ruoyun is the only married woman in this generation. Logically speaking, Liang Haotian should be named Xiao, but after Xiao Ruoyun gave birth to a child, he unilaterally cut off all contact with the Xiao family!
Xiao Ruoyun used a special method to send the message back. The Xiao family was very surprised when they received it. They even wondered if someone had impersonated the Xiao family to deliver the message. After confirmation, they believed it was from Xiao Ruoyun.
"Master, what do you think we should do about this matter? Should we send someone to Haishi?" someone asked in the Xiao family's meeting hall.
Xiao Ruoyun's brother Xiao Yuying pondered for a while and then said: "I'll go there myself!"
The expressions of several people in the meeting hall changed slightly, and someone hurriedly stopped him: "No! What if there is any trap..."
The reason why the Xiao family has always been in a corner is not really because the Xiao family has no ambitions or desires, but it is forced by the situation. When there is only one choice between interests and self-preservation, of course you must protect yourself first, and then talk about other things.
Some people in the Xiao family have no objections. What is the point of guarding a treasure that will not have much effect on the development of the Xiao family, but will cause countless troubles to the Xiao family? It will only bring endless trouble to the Xiao family. In this case, it might as well be
Just let it go.
Most people still denounce these views. This is the mission of the Xiao family. As long as you are a member of the Xiao family, you must abide by it! Unless you ask to leave the family!
Xiao Yuying waved her hand to stop what he was about to say, "No matter what, Ruoyun is my only sister. It's okay if we broke off contact before, but now that she has sent a message, I should go and have a look."
He always felt like something was wrong.
It is not that I hate this sister, I always feel that her whole person has changed after she got married. I feel that she has been coaxed by the Liang family and has forgotten her responsibilities to the Xiao family.
But now it seems that there is something else going on.
The information conveyed was not much, but there was something unusual in the words.
So he decided to go there in person to see what was going on.
If it was really a trap, he wouldn't be afraid. After all, he was also the head of the Xiao family, so how could he fall into a trap just because of a small trap? He was not a fledgling boy, and he had never experienced anything in so many years.
Others wanted to say something, but he interrupted, "This matter has been settled. I will go there as soon as possible."
Seeing that there was no doubt on his face, the others had no choice but to find ways to reduce risks and take precautions.
The long holiday is coming soon! Are you happy? As usual, I have to take the day off. I guess many people are not happy with this... Who is the person who came up with the bad idea to take the day off?
Chapter completed!
