Chapter 464: Relying on the old and selling the old
Xia Yan woke up, although he couldn't speak, but Xia Lin also blocked this matter and didn't tell anyone.
The courtyard is basically visited by people for three days on weekdays, if it weren't for Xia Qi or Xia Qi's family, now I can't see it, everyone has doubts, but they are still silent and don't say anything.
It's all from the same vein, and in the depths it is a family, everyone believes in Xia Lin's way of doing things, and don't make trouble if you can't help anything.
This time, the people who return to the mountain to worship the stone and worship the ancestors will generally leave one after another after the reunion dinner on the second day of the new year, Xia Lin has been in office for half a year, and the four housekeepers have also been selected to take the position, even if there is a banquet in the evening, there is no need for He Peier to arrange it, and the housekeeper will naturally take care of everything.
The banquets were all arranged in the evening, and Xia Lin gathered everyone for a meeting in the morning, and arranged all the things that could be arranged.
It was already noon when the morning meeting was over, and Xia Lin hurried back halfway but met Xia Chi.
The third master of the ancestor stood under the porch with two sleeves pinned, and there was no one around, it seemed that this person had come here to wait for him.
Xia Lin asked the housekeeper beside him to leave first, stepped forward and said hello softly.
Xia Chi came out of retreat a year ago, this is also the first time he is alone with Xia Lin, his generation is there, Xia Lin will not arrange things for him to do, this person is basically like an old lady, he is idle at home if he is not in retreat.
"These things have been handled almost for the New Year, right?" The thick snow in the yard had not yet melted, and Xia Lin came over and Xia Chi didn't look at him, but chatted with him in the courtyard.
"Everything that can be arranged for that meeting just now has been arranged, and those things are over for the time being." Xia Lin responded casually, he didn't think that this ancestor third master was here to talk to him about these clan chores, after all, he could be away from home for so many years, and it showed that he was not interested in these things at all.
Xia Yan's two sons, even if their bloodlines are damaged, their ability is beyond doubt!
Xia Chi sighed, "After coming back for half a year, I don't feel like there's anything special to do, and after tonight, I plan to leave with my wife and children." ”
He wants to leave, Xia Lin has a little accident, this ancestor has lived long enough, unlike the fourth grandfather, who thinks about falling leaves and returning to his roots all day long, he still wants to wander outside.
"Third Master Zu, it's okay to take Third Grandma Zu out for a walk if you can't stay idle, but it's better for Xia Tong to stay on the mountain." It's no problem for him to go, Xia Tong, who has been on the ancestral tree of the Xia family, can't just hang around outside like this, after all, the spirit of the younger generation is the hope of the Xia family's future, not to mention that Xia Tong is still a rare girl, and when she grows up, she must marry a man in the clan, so it's not good to have something outside for a long time.
He was reluctant to let his son marry Xia Tong at the beginning, and now he won't let anyone go.
Xia Chi smiled, "I came here today to talk about this matter, Tongtong left her soul blood on the ancestral tree, and she is already a member of the Xia family, but she is also my Xia Chi's daughter, I don't have too many requirements, or the same as the original idea, let her marry the eldest young master, so that I can rest assured when I leave, and I can be regarded as finding a good home for her." ”
rejected him back then, thinking that this person had put down that thought, but unfortunately he was wrong.
"We also talked about this matter at the beginning, I won't do anything about getting engaged to him in advance, and whether he will choose Xia Tong when he grows up in the future depends on his own will."
Stubborn.
"Xia Lin, if you put this kind of thinking on ordinary people, it may not be wrong, but don't forget what kind of family the Xia family is, it is not easy for a Holy Spirit bloodline to appear, if you don't arrange his future life path and maintain the purity and inheritance of this lineage, this Xia family will come to the point of no return sooner or later."
was rejected twice, Xia Chi's patience was also limited, and his speech began to be unpleasant.
He was unhappy, Xia Lin was the same, he sneered when he heard the words and said, "Third Master, I am the sect master, how to maintain this family has my own plans." As for my son, he has his own path, and besides, there is more than one girl in this clan now, even if he wants to inherit him, he has more choices. Will the Xia family really come to the road of collapse, your days are limited, and you can't see it anymore. You are an elder, Xia Tong is still young, you are your daughter, you have to take her out to play for a while, you are free, when she is an adult, I will let someone pick her up and return home, and I hope you can know how to be proportionate. ”
Xia Lin didn't stop after saying this, he turned around and left directly, he hated people like him the most.
I didn't expect to be so rampant when I was not old enough to speak, Xia Chi looked at the back of the person who left, and a sneer pulled out at the corner of his mouth, thinking that the days ahead will be long, and there will always be a time when you regret it.
At the banquet in the evening, He Peier took her son to go around, gave gifts to the two new little girls, and let the housekeeper look at her son, and she went back first.
She was not keen on this kind of occasion, so it was better to go back and rest early.
Compared with her, Xia Zhen insisted on sitting in his position even if he didn't like people very much, holding a glass of small juice and standing proudly at the crowd in the banquet hall.
In the future, he will take over this family, and so many people will have to remember it one by one.
At night, He Peier knew that Xia Lin would return late, so she went to bed in advance, and woke up in the middle of the night to find that her side was still empty.
"Xia Lin, what are you doing standing by the window? Why don't you go to bed? He Peier got up from the bed, looked at the person by the window and asked him.
The night light was on in the house, Xia Lin only took off his coat, and inside he was still wearing the same shirt during the day, and the person stood motionless in front of the window.
He Pei'er called him, and the person finally reacted a little, turned sideways and slowly walked to the side of the bed.
"You go to sleep first, I'll wait a while it's still early."
"It's almost there, it's early?" He Pei'er glanced at the man suspiciously, and then her heart rose again, "Is there a situation?" ”
"It's not a situation, I'll lay a small hole, and I'm waiting." Xia Lin patted the quilt that the woman was covering her body and asked her to lie down and rest.
That thing didn't seem to have made much progress, but I didn't expect the man to have a plan in his heart, and now He Peier couldn't sleep anymore, lifted the quilt and said, "I'll pour you a glass of water." ”
What kind of water did he drink in the middle of the night, but the woman couldn't sleep Xia Lin also knew, so he didn't persuade her anymore and let her toss.
He Peier got up and went to the pantry by the balcony, did not make tea, and came out with half a cup of honey water, but unfortunately the water was loaded, and the man could not be found when he came out.
It was only two minutes, and the man left silently.
He Pei'er saw that the glass door on the balcony was half open, and the person who put down the water cup also went down to the balcony.
The cold wind outside was biting, there were street lamps in the yard, but the sky was pitch black, she stared for a moment, probably because her ability was limited, and she didn't feel that there was a situation there.
