Chapter 190 The Xu Brothers’ Purpose

“……”Yu Hongdou’s silence was deafening.

This is an eternal problem that has stumped countless children. It suddenly appears in this context and is inexplicably funny.

"This... is a question about technique, right?" Tan Yanlin asked in a questioning tone, but his expression was positive.

"Well, why should the rabbit be kept with the chickens?" Tan Mengao asked a soul-searching question.

He turned to look at his brothers, especially the eleventh brother, whose face clearly showed the word "bad student". He asked sincerely, "So how many rabbits and chickens are there?"

Yu Hongdou was already doing mental arithmetic reflexively at this point, quickly plugging in x and y… and then: “Twenty-three chickens, twelve rabbits.”

"Rabbit is twelve, chicken is twenty-three." Tan Yanlin also gave the answer.

"So... does it have anything to do with the Hat Fairy?" Tan Langxu glanced at his brother, then at Yu Hongdou.

Yu Hongdou didn't know the answer to this question either. Fortunately, the storyteller felt that he had kept the audience suspenseful enough, so he announced the answer directly.

"The ancestors said, the hat fairy said, that the opportunity for him to appear again lies in this formula. I don't know the details, so I'll leave it to you to study."

After the storyteller finished speaking, he shook his head, clapped his hands on the wake-up stick, and said the closing words.

Yu Hongdou frowned. These two inexplicable numbers could represent so many things. Such a clue was not a clue at all.

"I'm afraid that the hat fairy doesn't want to see Mi Sheng again, so he deliberately left such a confusing formula?" Tan Mengao put a big hat on the hat fairy without even thinking about it.

Yu Hongdou laughed and said, maybe.

"Sir, someone from the Xu family is here." There was another knock on the door, and the waiter came in to report it.

"Oh? How many people are here?" Tan Langxiu stood up, rolled up his sleeves and prepared to go out.

"Four people, they said they came to apologize." The waiter looked up and added with a strange expression, "They are the eldest and second eldest masters of the Xu family and their two stewards."

He also held an apology gift in his hand.

Tan Langxu stopped, his eyes became serious, and he turned to look at Emperor An He.

An Hedi's face darkened and he slammed the table fiercely: "You are well-informed!"

Yu Hongdou had some doubts at first, but when she saw An Hedi understood instantly, she thought that the Xu family must have received the news and knew that their identities were not ordinary.

I don’t know if the other party guessed An Hedi’s identity correctly. If it was really clear, it would be no wonder that An Hedi was angry.

"Let them in, grandfather, and let's listen. Maybe it's because the three of us are too conspicuous." Tan Mengao, who is always smiling, is very reliable when it comes to serious matters.

After hearing what his grandson said, Emperor An He calmed down and nodded: "I want to see what the Xu family is up to."

Yu Hongdou stood up and stood behind her father, then pulled her father to secretly move next to An Hedi.

Although the incident started with them, father and daughter, they had nothing to do with the rest of the story.

Soon, two short, fat, round-faced men who looked like they were cut from the same mold came in with two servants carrying gift boxes.

The two men, who could be seen as brothers at a glance, came in and looked around, seeing people either standing or sitting.

His eyes moved around Emperor An He who was sitting in the center, and the three brothers of the Tan family who were standing or sitting, and finally landed on Tan Mengao.

The two brothers looked at each other obscurely, then bowed and saluted: "I am Xu Qi, Xu Lin, greeting you all."

"I'm really sorry, everyone. My little sister has had a bad health since she was young, and my family is a bit biased, which is why she is a bit arrogant."

"Just now my little sister came back crying saying that she was bullied, so we were inevitably angry and wanted to take some revenge."

"Luckily my father was at home. After asking for details, he found out that it was my younger sister who made the mistake first."

"My father felt that he had not taught my younger sister well and had caused trouble for you all, so he asked my two brothers to come and apologize."

"I hope you can forgive me for my young age."

This pair of brothers named Qilin seem to be a few years apart in age, but they look as similar as twins and talk one after another.

What Yu Hongdou found interesting was not this but their faces. From the round-faced girl to the brothers in front of her, Yu Hongdou had to admit the power of genes.

Not knowing whether the "Empress" of the Xu family also retreated with him, Yu Hongdou looked at Emperor Anhe curiously. Could this be the "peace and prosperity" face that the royal family liked?

An Hedi was sensitive to Yu Hongdou's gaze, and he knew what she was thinking. He was so angry that he almost laughed and glared at her fiercely.

At the same time, he complained secretly, not knowing which little bastard had brought shame upon him. He would definitely give them a good beating when he got back. After all, they were children of the royal family. Could they have a better vision?

When Tan Yanlin saw the eye-to-eye exchange between Yu Hongdou and An Hedi, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up. Then he looked at the faces of the Xu brothers and finally couldn't help but turned his back and smiled.

"It's not a big deal. You came here specially... Do you know us?" Tan Mengao didn't pay attention to the lawsuit behind him. He was thinking about the way the two brothers looked at him just now, so he asked directly.

The Xu brothers were slightly startled, probably because they did not expect this noble man to be so straightforward.

After hesitating for a moment, Boss Xu took a step forward and said, "Yes, we have met you once in the capital."

"At that time, we brothers were following the prince of Chengwang Mansion, and the distance between us was quite far. I'm afraid the Seventh Young Master didn't notice us." Boss Xu had a humble smile on his face, but his tone was neither slow nor hurried.

Yu Hongdou glanced at her father. The Xu brothers gave her a special feeling. To be able to teach their sons like this, it was obvious that her second uncle, who was not destined to be with her, should not be an ordinary person either.

Yu Sanlang calmly gave his daughter a look that told her to talk about it when she got home, but in his heart he was also admiring that the Xu family was truly extraordinary.

Not to mention his wife's sinister stepmother, even the eldest son of the Xu family, who was like a devil when he was young, does not seem to be as simple as he seems. Is he really from a family of outlaws?

That’s right, the secret about the Xu family that Yu Sanlang got from his mother-in-law was that the Xu family was not just a country gentry, they were once famous local robbers in the green forest.

Although the Xu family has transformed into a country gentry on the surface, they still seem to have dealings with some mysterious forces in secret.

Yu Sanlang also pays more attention to the Xu family's every move, trying to find some information that is beneficial to him. And his daughter gradually grows up in the process and begins to understand the complex relationships and interests between families. In this era full of variables, what challenges and opportunities will the Yu family father and daughter face...

Since then, Yu Sanlang has paid more and more attention to the Xu family, trying to find out more about the secret. He found that although the Xu family has transformed into a gentry on the surface, they still seem to have dealings with some mysterious forces in secret.
