Chapter 132 The Position of the patriarch
The morning sun slowly rose from the horizon. A wisp of warm sunlight shot through the cracks in the window and shone on Xia Houtian's face. His face moved slightly, as if he felt something. He slowly opened his eyes and emitted soft eyes.
"It was dawn, and I unconsciously practiced all night. I thought that my uncle and father should have woken up. Let's tell them what happened last night and see what they have to do!"
Thinking of this, Xia Houtian immediately got up, opened the door and walked out.
"Young master, you get up, and the maidservant will serve you to wash!"
Xia Houtian turned his head and looked. He saw a maid standing in front of his door, graceful, fresh and touching. He thought about it carefully, smiled and said, "It turned out to be Qingxiang. No, you go down first!"
"Young master, is it that the maidservant doesn't serve well? Please don't drive the maidservant away!" Qingxiang thought that Xia Houtian disliked him, so he immediately knelt down and said in his mouth.
"Well, fragrance, that's not what I mean. Get up first!"
"Young master, I know that I am wrong, and I will change it. Please, young master, don't drive me away!"
Seeing that Xiahou Tian failed to persuade him, he was suddenly at a loss. In desperation, he had no choice but to say, "No, how can I drive away Qingxiang? It's just that I've been used to taking care of myself since I was a child, so Qingxiang, think more about it. Get up!"
"Young master, is that really the case?" The fragrance slowly rose and stared at Xia Houtian with a trace of doubt, as if she wanted to see something from his face!
"Okay, Qingxiang, go down. I'm going to discuss something with my uncle!"
"The maidservant left. The marquis is in the study on the west side of the inner courtyard. The young master walks slowly!"
Looking at the fragrant and beautiful figure, Xia Houtian couldn't help shaking his head and said to himself, "What a careful girl. It seems that uncle has a heart!"
······
Through the corridor, Xia Houtian came to the west cross courtyard and saw the sound of conversation in the innermost study. When he heard it, he recognized the voice of his uncle.
"Oh, there are five breaths in the study. Except for my father and uncle, who are the other three breaths?"
······
"Brother Yi is the elder of the group and the leader of the collateral line. If you don't give up, don't refuse!"
"Brother Wen is too modest. How can I do it? It's better to choose a highly valued person from the main department!"
"Brother Yi is too modest. Who doesn't know that Xia Houtian, the son of your brother, has just returned. He is a fairy teacher, which is the blessing of my Xiahou family. It is the responsibility of the patriarch, and Yi brother should be right!"
"Oh? The news of Brother Wen and Brother Zun is really well-in-in-transmissioned. The news of Tian'er's return is so fast, hehe!"
"Well, don't blame me, brother Yi. We don't want to listen to it, but I just learned it unexpectedly. There is absolutely no other intention. This sincere invitation is the result of my main department's discussion!"
"Oh? The main department has actually discussed it. It seems that you really want me to be the patriarch and lead the Xiahou clan.
"Yes, it's the responsibility of the patriarch, it's only brother Yi!"
"Brother Yi has both talent and virtue, and he is not allowed to give up!"
"Okay, but I'm not a leader, but the patriarch is of great importance. Please allow me to think about it for a few days, do you think?"
"Okay, in that case, I won't bother you. I'll say goodbye!"
······
"Huh? Why does one of them look so familiar? Is it Xia Houfeng's father - Xia Houwen?",
He can remember that after going to the clan, the uncle was not less ridiculed by Xia Houwen, so he had some impression, but for the other two old men, he had no memory, and he should also be the elders of the Xia Hou family.
Hearing that the three people were about to leave, Xia Houtian moved and immediately avoided it. When the three people were far away, they walked out from the side and walked into the study.
"Big uncle, father, is there Xia Houwen among the three just now?"
"God, don't be presumptuous. You should call him Uncle Wen. How can he be so big or small!"
"Second brother, don't scold Xiaotian like this. Anyway, Xiaotian is also a fairy master now!"
"Big uncle, it's okay. No matter where I go, what achievements I have. In front of my father, I will always be a child!"
"Second brother, look, Xiaotian has grown up and you have a good son."
"Bear uncle, father, I just heard that these three people elected uncle as patriarch. I don't know why?"
"Ha ha, Xiaotian, this matter can be said to be thanks to you, otherwise your uncle and I can't stop this patriarch?"
"Vend me?"
"Yes, in fact, the position of patriarch has been vacant for a long time, but the main line and the collateral line have always been incompatible, so no one can take it, but because of your arrival, everything is different. You know, you and Xia Houfeng entered the Qingyun School at the same time, which is related to an agreement between the main line and the collateral line, because we I know that once you join the Qingyun School, you will never come back if you don't build a foundation. The current situation is that you go back first, so..."
"Oh, that's it."
"Oh, my God, I didn't tell you this back then. You won't blame my uncle!"
"If it hadn't been for my uncle, I wouldn't have today. My uncle's business in the future is my business. I will try my best to help!"
"Okay, second brother, sometimes, I'm a little jealous of you for giving birth to such a good son!"
"Big brother, Xiaotian's achievements now are all his efforts. He is also very happy that he can have today!"
"Hahaha, it's fast, but as soon as Xiaotian came back, the news spread out. It seems that this mansion is not as unbreakable as we imagined!"
"Yes, big brother, you should be more cautious in the future."
"Duncle, father, I'm here to tell you the good news!"
"Oh, Xiaotian, you also have good news, but do you have any good news?"
"Don't be impatient, uncle. You'd better invite the old man I brought back yesterday first, so that I won't have to say it again!"
"This..." Xia Houyi didn't know what Xia Houtian was going to say, but it was really inappropriate to let an outsider present, and she couldn't help but hesitate.
Xia Houtian also saw his uncle's concerns and said, "Don't worry, uncle. It's okay!"
Although Xia Houyi was puzzled, when she saw Xia Houtian's persistence, she stopped persuading each other and said to the door, "Go, bring the old man who was placed yesterday here!"
"Yes, marquis!"
A quarter of an hour later, the old man came late. Seeing that Xia Houtian was also there, he hurriedly saw the salute: "The villain has seen the fairy master!"
"Old man, do it. I happen to have something to say. You can also listen to it!"
"Thank you, fairy master!"
"Xiaotian, what's the matter with you? Just tell me!"
"Big uncle, old man, I think you all want to know about the recent disappearance of people in the capital. Who did it!"
With a plop, the old man knelt on the ground and pleaded with Xia Houtian, "Fairy Master, have you figured it out? But if you have found Bixin, please beg the fairy master. You must save her. In the next life, you will definitely be a cow and a horse for the fairy master and serve the fairy master!"
"Old man, get up first. As long as I can do it, I will do my best!"
Xia Houtian really couldn't stand an old man. He knelt down for him, secretly carried Zhenyuan, and helped the old man up.
"Yes, old man, Tian'er is kind and will definitely help you. You can rest assured!"
The old man looked at Xia Houyuan with slightly doubtful eyes: "Who is this?"
"Old man, this is my father. Now you should be relieved!"
"The father of the fairy master?! Thank you very much, little old man. There is no way to repay you for your great kindness!"
"Don't, old man, get up, get up!"
Xia Houyuan saw that the old man was about to kneel down again. He hurriedly held him and couldn't help persuading him. Finally, he persuaded the old man back to his seat, but looking at the old man's expression, he obviously did not come back from his excitement.
