Xiao Yuming brought Cuiyun to the gate of the house, and saw Xiao Yiyuan also hurrying over. After the two greeted each other, they saw several cars slowly driving over, and Niu Hongliang, the guard commander of the Hou Mansion, was walking in front.

Xiao Yuming and Xiao Yiyuan saw people coming, and walked over together.Niu Hongliang saluted the two of them, and at the same time the curtains of several cars were lifted, and people of all ages got out of the cars.

A 70-year-old man and two middle-aged men got out of the first car.Seeing Xiao Yiyuan, he hurried over to help the old man's arm, and shouted, "Second Grandpa."

"Hey." The old man responded, then looked him up and down, and kept saying, "I'm more energetic than before."

He is Xiao Chengming, the younger brother of Lord Hou.

Xiao Yiyuan smiled, and then introduced Xiao Yuming to him, "Second Grandpa, this is the second son of the Hou family."

Xiao Yuming stepped forward to salute, "The younger generation is polite."

He didn't really recognize his relatives, so he didn't call him a more intimate name.But Xiao Chengming didn't care about this at all. He took two steps forward, carefully looked at Xiao Yuming in the dim light, and then said with tears in his eyes: "Like, like your grandpa."

"Yes, many people say that." Xiao Yuming made a gesture of invitation, "Go in first."

Xiao Chengming turned his head, looked at an old woman not far away and said kindly: "Sister-in-law, let's go."

There was a forced smile on the old woman's face, and Xiao Yiyuan walked over to help her up.Xiao Yuming thought of what Tang Shuyi had said to him before, and walked over.

Xiao Yiyuan introduced again: "Grandma, this is the second son of the Hou family."

Xiao Yuming bowed to her, but the old woman was at a loss, not knowing what to say, nor what to do.Seeing this, Xiao Yuming made another gesture of invitation, "Go in first."

He turned around and walked into the house. The old woman held Xiao Yiyuan's arm tightly. Xiao Yiyuan could clearly feel her trembling. He patted her hand comfortingly and said softly, "Grandma, I have everything."

After hearing what he said, the old woman became more emotionally stable. She said, "Okay, I know my grandson is capable."

Xiao Yiyuan turned his head and called his parents and younger sister to enter the house together. When everyone arrived in the hall, Xiao Yuming said: "Today, you are exhausted from traveling and traveling. You should have a good rest, and then go into the mansion tomorrow to meet my mother."

Xiao Chengming and the others naturally had nothing to do with it. Xiao Yuming saw that they were a little nervous, so he didn't wait too long, said a few words politely, and left with Cuizhu.Indeed, when he left, everyone in Xiao Chengming breathed a sigh of relief.

"Yi Sheng, go and close the door," Xiao Chengming told Xiao Yisheng, and then asked Xiao Yiyuan in a low voice, "What's going on here?"

Although Xiao Yisheng had already told him many things, he still wanted to hear Xiao Yiyuan talk about it.One is because Xiao Yisheng didn't participate in some of the previous matters, so he didn't explain them very clearly.Second, Xiao Yiyuan is the most promising in their big family, and his words are more convincing.

Xiao Yiyuan could understand his mood, and patiently explained how the second prince sent people to provoke him, what happened when the second prince's staff invited him to the teahouse, and how the second prince was imprisoned because of that incident.

After he finished speaking, the room was silent. What he said was more detailed and vivid than Xiao Yiyuan's, which shocked Xiao Chengming and the others again.

After a while, Xiao Chengming asked again in a low voice: "Then...then isn't this an enmity with the emperor...the emperor?"

This is too bold!

The county magistrate has never met a person who would be terrified even if he mentioned the emperor, not to mention that the Yongning Houfu made a prince imprisoned.Just thinking about it scares me to death.

"I also heard about it later," Xiao Yiyuan said: "The second prince had a grudge with the deceased Marquis of Yongning. When Marquis of Yongning was alive, he didn't dare to make big moves. After Marquis of Yongning died, he always opposed the Marquis of Yongning. "

"This... Isn't this bullying?" Xiao Chengming's voice was full of anger.

Xiao Yiyuan nodded, pondered for a moment and said: "The Marquis of Yongning has made great military achievements and sacrificed his life for the country. The emperor still cares about these affections. Moreover, Mrs. Hou was born in Tang Guogong's mansion, and Tang Guogong took good care of Mrs. Hou and the others. Yongning Hou's mansion seems to be I'm not afraid of the Second Prince."

Xiao Chengming and the others were even more shocked. There are people in this world who are not afraid of the royal family?

"The situation is more complicated, and you will understand it gradually." Xiao Yiyuan knew that they couldn't understand even if he explained it again, so he simply stopped talking.

At this time, there was a knock on the door, followed by the steward's voice, "Young Master Xiao, the meal is ready, you can eat."

Before Cuizhu left, he explained to the steward that among these people, Xiao Yiyuan was the one in charge, and he was the only one to ask for anything.

Xiao Yiyuan went to open the door, and then led everyone to the restaurant with the steward.The steward smiled and said to Xiao Yiyuan: "Time is in a hurry, the meal is simpler, Mr. Xiao Haihan."

Xiao Yiyuan glanced at the dining table, there must be at least a dozen dishes, and hurriedly said: "Very good, I'm sorry."

"Don't bother, don't bother, it's what a villain should do." The steward said with a slightly bent back, "Do you need a villain to call someone to serve you?"

Xiao Yiyuan waved his hand: "No need."

The steward smiled and said hello again, then withdrew, and they were the only family left in the room.Xiao Yiyuan glanced at the back of the steward leaving, and once again felt that Mrs. Hou's words and deeds were impeccable, and people couldn't find a little courtesy.

What is going on with these people in their family, everyone in the Yongning Hou Mansion should know.However, whether it was during the time he lived in the Hou's mansion, or after his family came today, the servants of the Hou's mansion were very respectful to them.

The attitude of the servants often reflects the attitude of the master.Mrs. Hou gave them the greatest courtesy.

Thinking about these things in his heart, Xiao Yiyuan asked his family to sit down and have a meal.The people of the Xiao family are used to being poor and poor. Although they ate simple food along the way from southern Xinjiang, they already felt very good.Seeing the table full of delicate meals now, they once again realized the wealth of the Hou Mansion.

Everyone sat there, their hearts were very complicated for a while.

"Second Grandpa, let's eat." Xiao Yiyuan said softly to Xiao Chengming.

Xiao Chengming suppressed the confusion in his heart, picked up his chopsticks and said, "I'm hungry after a day's driving, let's eat."

He took a bite with chopsticks first, and the others also picked up chopsticks to eat.They were indeed hungry, and the food was very palatable, and the plates were empty after a while.However, there are more than a dozen dishes, and the amount of staple food is very large, and the family is very satisfied.

Just after eating, the voice of the steward came from outside again, asking if there was any tea.Xiao Yiyuan knew that this meant asking if they had finished eating, so he answered, and a few maidservants came over with tea trays, served each a cup of tea, and then they all went out to leave their family behind.

Xiao Chengming took a sip of tea and whispered to Xiao Yiyuan, "I'll talk to you later."

Xiao Yiyuan nodded, "Okay."
