If Liao Qing was serious with them, they wouldn't get anything good from him.

Xiao Mang said again, "Liao Qing, don't look at me. It was our master who said it, not me. I just told the two uncles and aunties about the process of our Miss Jiaojiao's marriage recognition. Later our master learned that Jiaojiao

Miss Jiaojiao was already engaged, but Liao Qing gave up the idea and settled for the next best thing, accepting Miss Jiaojiao as his daughter-in-law..."

Mrs. Xu Zhang only heard Xu Jiaojiao talk about recognizing her daughter, but she didn't know there was such a twist.

Listened with great interest.

Xiao Wanzi ate with gusto.

Seeing Liao Qing's eyes darken, Xu Jiaojiao was worried that Xiao Mang would not be able to leave Xujiacun properly.

She interrupted him with a smile, "Did anything interesting happen after we left Bingyang City..."

Let's change the topic to a safe topic.

Xiao Mang said while eating, "Yes, it really is! After you left, a big thing happened in Bingyang City, which was very lively! It was Du Shaoqing, the head of the four ministers today, who returned to Bingyang with his newly recognized son.

In the ancestral house in Yangcheng, a temple is opened to recognize the ancestors and return to the clan... Do you know about Du Shaoqing?"

Xu Youde and his wife looked at each other in confusion, so naturally they didn't know.

Everyone else has heard about it.

Xu Jiaojiao asked, "What about that family in the Bingyang Rebellion who made contributions to the court and got promoted and made a fortune?"

"Yes, yes! That's that family! Du Shaoqing's deceased first wife and our wife were best friends, very close friends. Our master and Du Shaoqing had met several times. That day, the Du family returned to Bingyang City, and the whole city

The dignitaries all went to greet us, our master, his wife, and the eldest son also went, and the younger one naturally followed. Didn't Du Shaoqing's former first wife give birth to a son for him, but he lost it in the year of the rebellion, and now he has found it.

This time I brought him back to recognize his ancestors. The result was unexpected...guess what happened?" Xiao Mang said excitedly.

Everyone was aroused and listened to the gossip with great enthusiasm.

Xiao Wanzi asked curiously, "What happened?"

"It's a very ominous thing! I was just paying homage to my ancestors over there, and as we were talking, suddenly, the ancestral tablets fell down, fell to the ground, and were broken! Some people said that this son was fake and was not of the blood of Lao Du's family.

...It's amazing!" Xiao Mang said after satisfying everyone's appetite.

Xu Youde and his wife were stunned.

The other young people raised their eyes.

Xu Jiaojiao didn't believe in superstition before, but later she went to the Niangniang Temple and felt that some things couldn't be explained and could only be explained by fantasy.

However, it would be ridiculous if this ancestral tablet fell down!

She had read a lot of novels about house fights in her previous life. From her point of view, this was probably because someone in the Du family was afraid that the first wife's son would recognize him and hinder their interests, so he played a trick in it.

Everyone was silent, and Xiao Mang continued, "Then, the Du family did not continue to recognize their ancestors, saying that they would repair the ancestral temple first. Our master said that the water in the Du family was very deep, and the tablet fell by chance.

However, it always has a bad connotation. I am afraid that the son of the first wife will not be able to recognize his ancestors again. That day, the son of the first wife also behaved inappropriately. We all saw it on the spot. There were so many people and so ****.

On the occasion, he held a wooden fish pendant and kept saying that it was left to him by his mother, that he was the eldest young master of the Du family, and that he had a token left by his mother..."

"This is too low!" Xiao Wanzi was surprised, "Could he be a fool? In that case, what's the use of shouting with his mother's relics? Someone has obviously tampered with it, how can he still take it?

Can’t his mother’s soul scream out to help him?”

"Yes, our master also said that this first wife's son is no longer useful, and he is afraid that he will not be included in the Du family's ancestral tree."

Xu Jiaojiao's key point is, "Isn't he born from the first wife? Why is he not listed in the ancestral genealogy?"

"It's like this. A child of the Du family can't be included in the ancestral genealogy until one year after his birth. At that time, the first wife gave birth to a son. Before it was a year old, the Bingyang Rebellion broke out in Bingyang City. The son was lost and has never been seen.

superior……"

Xu Jiaojiao said oh, it turned out to be like this.

Liao Qing suddenly interrupted and asked, "His mother must be a young lady from a wealthy family, so why did she leave him such a worthless-sounding token like a wooden fish pendant?"

"I'm not sure about this." Xiao Mang shook his head, and then said, "By the way, my master said that this first wife's son was adopted by a couple named Liao. Does Liao Qing have the same surname as you, or...

You people from Shazhou County..."

I saw Liao Qing's figure stiffened imperceptibly.

He didn't come around for quite a while.

Xu Jiaojiao rarely saw him so absent-minded...

Xu Youde and his wife became interested after hearing this, "Oh? He is from our Shazhou County, and he has the same surname as our Liao Qing? There are not many people with the surname Liao, maybe they are relatives who are beating around the bush, then do you know what his name is?

Name?"

"I heard...what was his name called Liao Changsheng? I'm not sure...I just heard a few words..."

Now, the room was quiet.

Xu Jiaojiao seemed to have heard this name somewhere.

Xu Zhang was the first to react, "Could it be the family in Liaojia Village? Liao Qing, that family in your village?"

Xu Jiaojiao also remembered that when she first bought land, she seemed to have bought five acres of land in Liaojia Village. The old couple said they would follow their son to the city to enjoy their happiness...

And their son's name is Liao Changsheng.

It can't be the same family or the same person, right?

He also looked at Liao Qing.

Liao Qing also seemed surprised, "I guess not, how can such a coincidence happen? Then isn't Liao Changsheng the father-in-law of Mr. Liao and the others?"

Xu Youde said, "It shouldn't be the case. I know very well about Mr. Liao's family. It was indeed the old man who got the son. When his wife was pregnant with her son, she had a big belly. Everyone in the village had seen it. How could she have picked up someone else's son? Also,

Mr. Liao is just like us, his ancestors were all poor people from the countryside, and they didn’t even rush to the county town a few times. It can’t be them, it should be someone else with the same name.”

Mrs. Xu Zhang nodded, "That's probably the case. How can there be such a coincidence? The county is so big, it's not uncommon for people with the same name to have the same name."

Xu Youde greeted Xiao Mang, Xiao Wanzi and the others ate vegetables, ate vegetables...

"I heard from Darong that there are many people with the same name and surname. When they went to the provincial capital to apply for the civil service examination, there were several people with the same name as him in Shazhou County. It's not unusual for a few Xu Darong to stand up at one o'clock."

Everyone also said yes.

We didn't talk about this topic anymore and moved on to something else. Mrs. Xu Zhang paid attention to whether the two in-laws had any taboos, and wanted to give the two in-laws some local products as a return gift.
