I, the fox clan, Arita!

Someone with sharp eyes saw Wei Xiuya and said in surprise, "Oh, Xiuya is back!"

For a moment, all the people in the flower hall looked at the door, as if they were looking at something extraordinary. After several months, they saw Wei Xiuya appearing in Anguo Gong's mansion again. No matter what they thought in their hearts, but at this moment There was a look of surprise on everyone's face.

"Xiu Ya, come in and sit down!" The wife of the second room smiled and waved to Wei Xiuya, and said, "Just now I was talking about you with my sister-in-law. I heard that you have been back to the capital for a while, so why don't you come home early to have a look? ? Sister-in-law has been thinking about you."

The sister-in-law she was talking about was naturally Wei Xiuya's stepmother Xu.

"I said that Xiuya will be fine, but you still don't believe me," another cheerful female voice laughed, "Look, take a look, the men of our Wei family are always upright!"

"Second Aunt, Third Aunt, my legs are inconvenient, so I won't be able to stand up," Wei Xiuya bowed his hands to the two women with a smile on his face, and saluted all the elders in the hall one by one, saying, "I hope all uncles don't mind."

The men gathered in one place, while the women's family members and children gathered together separately.

The highest seniority in Duke Anguo's mansion is Wei Xiuya's father and uncles. His grandparents have passed away. Wei Xiuya is the eldest boy in the second generation of the Wei family. The third generation is the second and third. The younger brothers who are married, the oldest is only five years old, and the youngest is still breastfeeding.

The family members in this hall are all serious wives and sons and daughters. The younger brothers and sisters in the few houses are not counted as concubines. There are more than ten in total, and they all came forward to say hello to Wei Xiuya.

Wei Xiuya went up to Mrs. Xu, and said: "I have seen my mother, I wish her good health."

Mrs. Xu is very young, only in her mid-thirties this year, and her appearance is above average. Perhaps it is because she, as the wife of Mrs. An, manages the food and clothing expenses of such a large family, and she has developed a dignified and steady temperament through experience.

"It's good to be back, it's good to be back," Xu said with relief, "I saw you in the palace yesterday, and I thought it was my eyesight. Seeing that you are in good health, your father and I are relieved. When you come back, just stay at home for a while, your yard has been cleaned all the time, just waiting for you to come back and live there."

"I can't stop," Wei Xiuya said, "My house is only two streets away from my home, so it's very convenient to come here anytime."

Wei Xiuya naturally knew that Xu's words were all polite. He had previously transferred the cavalry from the Jingwei camp to chase Lingshu without authorization. Everyone in the city knew about this incident. It is impossible for Xu to have never heard of it. What's more, as soon as Wei Xiuya came back, he kicked out the four maids she sent to his house. He couldn't believe that Mrs. Xu didn't ask about him from those maids.

As for keeping him in the Duke of Anguo's mansion, he is now a marquis with the title, a mansion bestowed by the emperor, if it is said to stay in the Duke of Anguo's mansion for one night, it is fine, but if he stays for a long time, it is unreasonable, Xu Shiming knows He won't stay, saying this in front of so many people is nothing more than to appear virtuous.

So Wei Xiuya's refusal was originally expected by Xu, she just nodded and said: "Forget it, your father has always suffered from minor physical problems these past few years, if you are free on weekdays, come back and see him more often. "

It means that he usually doesn't go back to the Duke's mansion, and doesn't serve his father, isn't it because of a filial son?

Wei Xiuya sneered in his heart, but smiled on his face and said: "The child is unfilial, and he will definitely go home often in the future."

I'm afraid that if he really returns to the Duke's mansion often, Mrs. Xu will have trouble sleeping and eating, right?

He has already made it clear that he will not compete with Xu's son for the position of Prince Anguo, and he already has the title of Marquis of Wuwei, so it is impossible to be crowned prince again, Xu is still so wary of him.

Perhaps as long as it was not born in his own stomach, it would be a threat to Xu.

What's more, when she handed it to the palace to ask her son to be crowned prince, the emperor kept suppressing it and refused to approve it, Xu's heart could not be settled down.

The little fox in Wei Xiuya's arms was dizzy from the noise of the people in the room. The charcoal basin in the room was burning hot, and the heating was suffocating. The smell is mixed together, which is unbearable for the little fox with a sensitive nose.

"Ah - sneeze!"

The little fox had an itchy nose and couldn't help sneezing.

The voice came from Wei Xiuya's chest, and Xu was stunned, staring closely at the bulge on Wei Xiuya's chest.

"Ah!"

The little fox couldn't bear it anymore.

Xu hesitated and said, "Yes...it's the one—"

A boy's voice sounded from the side: "Brother, is that spirit fox in your arms that presented flowers to the emperor at the palace banquet? Can we have a look at it?"

The young man who spoke was Wei Xiuya's stepbrother and Xu's son Wei Xiuchen.

Wei Xiuchen is 16 years old this year. His appearance has inherited the handsomeness of the Wei family. His skin is fair, and the temperament between his eyebrows and eyes is very young. Compared with Wei Xiuya, he is a delicate flower raised in a greenhouse. Be pampered by your parents.

Originally, the Wei family had been generals for generations, but Mrs. Xu did not allow her son to practice martial arts. She felt that dancing with knives and guns was very dangerous. Yes, they might lose their lives. The ancestors of the Wei family did not know how many men died on the battlefield. The Xu family would never allow such a situation to happen.

Wei Xiuchen has been studying since he was a child, and his homework is very good, and he is often praised by his masters. I don't know how Xu coaxed his father, but his father was happy to see his youngest son study.

Wei Xiuya thought, there is a very high possibility, Xu was telling his father that for a boy who practices martial arts at home, it is enough to have him as an elder brother, and both brothers cannot go to the battlefield, if Wei Xiuya dies in battle, There is still one bloodline left in the direct branch of the Wei family.

It's a pity, his life was too bad, he didn't die, he only injured his leg, and now even his leg is almost healed.

After Wei Xiuya heard Wei Xiuchen's words, he immediately felt displeased. Looking at the little fox is like looking at his wife, so it's no wonder he can be happy.

However, he knew that Ling Shu would sneeze only when he was suffocated, so he opened his collar slightly to let the little fox expose his fluffy head to breathe.

"Brother, it's so cute!" A girl beside Wei Xiuchen looked at the little fox excitedly, and asked Wei Xiuya, "Can I pet it?"

This young girl is Xu's daughter, Wei Xiuchen's biological sister, her name is Wei Yutong, she is just 13 years old this year, and she looks very pretty.

"No," Wei Xiuya said flatly, "You also said it's Linghu, he won't be touched by ordinary people."

Everyone in the room gathered around Wei Xiuya, looked at the little fox in his arms curiously, and talked a lot.

What happened at the palace banquet yesterday has long been spread out. Naturally, people will publicize such auspicious events as Linghu Xianrui. In addition, Wei Xiuya sent troops to chase this little fox with great fanfare before, and the aristocratic circle in the capital city Well, there is no one who doesn't know that this spirit fox is raised by Wei Xiuya.

"Look at how clever this little fox's eyes are, as if he can talk. He looks so cute and hurts. Could it be a fox fairy who came down from some spiritual mountain?"

"Xiu Ya, before you brought it into the palace, you really didn't teach it to present flowers to the emperor? Didn't you rehearse it?"

It was Wei Xiuya's third uncle who was talking. His third uncle, three aunts, and his wife are both straight-minded. Even if someone doubted the question he asked, he would never ask it in front of Wei Xiuya. asked.

Many people think that Wei Xiuya's third uncle is too straightforward, which is not in line with the mainstream and unpopular in the aristocratic circle, but Wei Xiuya is used to being in the army, and on the contrary, he likes his third uncle to speak bluntly like this. Come and go.

"Back to Third Uncle," Wei Xiuya said with a smile, "I didn't teach him before, and he ran out of my arms by himself. Happy."

"This little guy offered flowers by himself? Are you really so amazing?" Master Wei San was speechless, staring at the little fox longingly, and said, "If we can touch it, maybe we can have some good luck! "

Wei Xiuya regrets it very much now, he shouldn't have softened his heart and agreed that Ling Shu would turn into a little fox and come to An Guogong's mansion. He wanted to touch one or two of them, and he thought his daughter-in-law was nothing!

Facing his third uncle, Wei Xiuya couldn't bear the coldness, so he had no choice but to say: "He really won't be touched casually, third uncle, please don't embarrass me."

Wei Yutong was very unconvinced, and said: "Brother, you didn't let us try it, so how do you know if Linghu is willing to be touched? Everyone just wants to be lucky, and they are all a family. Why did Big Brother do this?" as stingy?"

Just touch it, and it won't shed hair!

Mrs. Xu pulled her daughter aside, and said with a smile: "Forget it, this spirit fox is Xiuya's treasure, so don't make things difficult for your elder brother, Yutong was originally blessed, and he will definitely find a good husband's family. "

The implication is that if Wei Xiuya doesn't let Wei Yutong touch Linghu, he just doesn't want his sister to marry a good man in the future.

Wei Yutong leaned against Xu's side, blushing, and said coquettishly, "Mother, why are you saying this in front of everyone!"

The second lady joked: "Oh, our Yutong is a big girl, it's time to talk about marriage, it's time to keep your eyes open and take a closer look, what's there to be shy about?"

Wei Xiuya was impatient. He was tired of listening to these women's words. There were several meanings hidden in one sentence. He saw that the younger brothers and sisters in the room were all staring at the little fox in his arms curiously, with no expression on their faces. Sensual, squeezed the little fox's little paw, and said:

"Since everyone doesn't believe it, then I'll let him out, everyone who wants to try it, and see if he will let people touch him."

Wei Xiuya carried the little fox out of his arms, and saw that the little fox was wearing a small dress, the fabric of the little dress was exactly the same as the robe on Wei Xiuya's body, and it wrapped the little fox's belly obediently. The four legs protruding from the four sleeves make for a fun look.

Wei Xiuya specially asked Xiu Niang to do this, and Ling Shu suggested some improvements.

After their first intimate contact, Wei Xiuya suddenly became conscious. When he saw the little fox, he naturally remembered Lingshu's naked body.

So he no longer allowed the little fox to appear naked in front of people.

Only he can see his daughter-in-law!

The little fox sat obediently on Wei Xiuya's lap. When the people in the room were looking at him, he was also looking at others.

Wei Xiuya's stepmother is so young, his younger brother looks a bit like him, but he looks too weak, no good, no good.

Here are the second uncle, the second aunt, the third uncle, the third aunt, and the fourth aunt. Why isn't the fourth uncle here?

Lingshu was wondering, Wei Yutong cautiously stretched out his hand, wanting to touch the little fox's head.

The little fox smelled a smell of makeup and powder, and immediately turned his head away and sneezed loudly.

Wei Yutong's hand froze in mid-air, she bit her lip, not giving up, and after the little fox sneezed, she went to touch his head again.

The little fox is not happy.

He opened his mouth to show his sharp canine teeth, and bared his teeth at Wei Yutong.

I am super fierce!

Wei Yutong took a step back in fright, his small face turned pale, he looked miserable, and he was so embarrassed that he hugged Xu, almost crying.

Linghu won't let her touch it.

All the people in the family saw it.

The fox still bared its teeth at her. It doesn't like her, does it mean that she is unlucky?

Xu's complexion was not good, everyone in the room felt that the fox was spiritual, and she also saw that the animal was very docile in Wei Xiuya's arms. She thought it was docile, but she didn't expect this little thing to be so docile. fierce.

Wei Xiuya must have taught it!

I knew he was up to no good!

The atmosphere in the room was a little stagnant for a while.

"It's all right," Mrs. Xu comforted her daughter softly, "No matter how clever the fox is, it's still a beast. Even though it was raised by your elder brother, it's always a bit wild and difficult to tame. Deliberately targeting you, Xiu Ya, is that what I said?"

"Mother is right," Wei Xiuya patted the little fox's head, stroking the soft fur on his head, and said, "When he went out in the morning, he didn't eat much, maybe he was just hungry and in a bad mood. "

The second lady hurriedly smoothed things over and laughed: "That's right, it's been a long time, and I feel a little hungry. I just can't stand the slightest hunger. When I'm hungry, I feel irritable when I do everything. There is some dessert on the table, I just went to the newly opened 'Yuwei' workshop to buy it yesterday, it tastes so good, anyone who is hungry can eat some to fill their stomach first."

"Isn't it? This cake smells delicious, and our little glutton has never stopped talking."

The young woman who spoke was holding a milk doll in her arms. The milk doll looked about three or four years old. She was wearing small tiger-headed boots and a small tiger-headed hat. She was pink and round-eyed, so cute.

Hearing that the adults were laughing at him, the milk baby twisted his body and got down from his mother's arms, holding a small piece of cake in his hand, and wobbled towards the little fox on Wei Xiuya's lap Go, stretch out your hand, pass the cake out, and say with a small mouth: "Doggie, you eat."

"Hong'er, come back quickly!" The young woman hurried forward, wanting to carry her son back.

But the little milkman ignored her, just stubbornly stretched out his hand to the little fox, and handed the cake to his mouth: "Here, cake, delicious."

Almost everyone in the room held their breath, waiting for Linghu's reaction.

The little fox stared at the little guy in front of him.

The cake in his hand was bitten.

The little fox is crazy, there is still your saliva on it, okay!

But this little boy is so cute!

It's so meaty that I really want to kiss him.

Will his child look as cute as this little milk baby in the future?

No, no!

Wait what am I thinking? !

How could I think about children!

It's only been a few days with Wei Xiuya, but thinking about this will make him laugh?

But...but...

He really wants a few boys who are as good-looking as Wei Xiuya!

It will be super fulfilling!

During the time when the little fox was distracted, the little milk baby named Hong'er was about to cry.

"Dog, eat cake."

You are the dog!

Hong'er's mother came to hug him and said, "That's not a dog, it doesn't eat cakes, Hong'er is good, we keep the cake for ourselves."

"Dog dog, dog dog!" Hong'er refused to follow, kicking two short legs to get down.

The little fox jumped off Wei Xiuya's lap.

He took a few steps in the direction of the young woman.

Xiao Hong'er suddenly smiled, "Dog dog, I'll give you my cake."

The little fox stood on the ground leisurely, looking up at the little milk baby.

Hong'er got off his mother and put the cake in his hand to the little fox's mouth. The little fox sniffed it symbolically, expressing that he had eaten it.

Since you are so cute and willing to share your favorite cake with me, I don't care about calling me a dog all the time.

But it's impossible for me to eat your saliva!

The third wife was straightforward, and immediately boasted: "Oh, our Hong'er is so lucky! Linghu ate Hong'er's cake!"

"Hong'er is a lucky baby, haha!"

"You don't know, just now I asked Hong'er to give me some of the cake in his hand, and he was still clutching the cake, and he didn't even let anyone look at it, now he's willing to let Linghu eat it, Hong'er I have a relationship with Linghu!"

Hong'er's mother also couldn't stop the corners of her mouth from turning up, looked at Xu's face, suppressed the joy in her heart, and spoke modest words.

Xu's face turned blue, and one or two praised Hong'er, which made her daughter's behavior even more ridiculous.

But since it's New Year's Eve, she's not easy to put on a face, so she forced a smile on her face and said against her will: "Our Hong'er family is indeed blessed, later, grandma will give Hong'er an extra red envelope!"

Wei Xiuya picked up the little fox from the ground, covered his four little paws one by one to keep him warm, touched the tip of his nose, and said with a smile, "Naughty again."

The little fox blinked innocently at him a few times to show that he was innocent!

He just really likes that little milk baby!

"What are you talking about? It's so lively?" With a steady male voice, Wei Lianghan, the male master of An Guogong's mansion, entered the hall, followed by a few servants.

People in the room greeted Wei Lianghan one after another.

Mrs. Xu collected her expression and said with a smile, "Master is here. He was talking about Linghu just now."

"Oh? The one from Xiuya?" Wei Lianghan's eyes fell on Wei Xiuya.

Wei Xiuya didn't get up, he sat in the wheelchair and said, "I've seen my father."

"Well," Wei Lianghan sat down on the main seat, nodded slightly, and looked at the little fox in Wei Xiuya's arms, "I didn't take a closer look at it in the palace yesterday, but now that I look at it like this, my eyes are really lively."

After two sentences, the father and son did not communicate any more, as indifferent as if they were strangers.

Wei Lianghan is over 50 years old, with a burly figure and a beard. His outline is still handsome, and he has the temperament of a mature man. He was also a handsome man when he was young.

Wei Xiuchen leaned over to his father and said, "Father, look how smart this little fox is, let's go hunting and come back to raise it, shall we?"

"To put it lightly, you are so good at hunting a living fox?" Wei Lianghan glanced at his youngest son, "Are you going hunting, or should I go hunting?"

Wei Xiuchen was speechless, his riding and shooting skills were not as good as his father's.

Wei Lianghan said lightly: "Since everyone is here, let's start the banquet."

Mrs. Xu hurriedly ordered to go down, and the sound of firecrackers immediately sounded outside the courtyard. After a while, maids and servants came in one after another carrying various steaming dishes.

One table for the men, one table for the female family members, one table for the children, and the aunts and sons and daughters in each house are not eligible to participate in such a family banquet, and they will celebrate the New Year in their own yard.

Since it was a reunion dinner, drinking was a must. The men wanted to drink, and the female relatives also served a little rice wine with a mild taste.

This reunion dinner was eaten in a harmonious and enjoyable manner.

After eating, Wei Xiuya couldn't just leave like this. The whole family had to watch the New Year's Eve together at night. As the sky was getting dark, the red lanterns in the Duke's Mansion were lit, illuminating the whole Duke's Mansion as bright as day, and people of all colors Cakes and snacks were put on the table, as well as delicate toys for children, cards and posts for adults to entertain.

Wei Xiuya was sitting with his brothers and sisters from his uncle's family, who started talking about the marriages of their school-age children.

Wei Xiuji, the cousin of the second room, asked: "Now your legs are healed, and our younger brothers will run all over the place. As the eldest brother, shouldn't it be time for you to think about your own life?"

Wei Xiuji is Hong'er's father, he is only one year younger than Wei Xiuya.

"That's right, I've already gotten married this year," said Wei Xiuze, the eldest son of Sanfang, "My aunt will definitely help my elder brother."

Wei Xiuchen then said: "A few days ago, mother took the place of elder brother..."

"Tell my mother for me," Wei Xiuya said directly, "I already have someone I like, and she doesn't need to worry about marriage."

Wei Xiuze excitedly said: "Isn't that just right? Big brother, which girl are you looking for? Let the big aunt come to your door and say hello to you!"
