"What?!" Yao Xixing's eyes widened and he couldn't believe it, "How is it possible? We are our own family, and instead of helping us, he actually let outsiders bully us? Is the Viscount mentally ill?"
Yao Danqing was so frightened that he quickly covered Yao Xixing's mouth and asked him to whisper.
Even if the Viscount doesn't have any real power, he is still a Viscount. It's a trivial matter to kill a lot of people.
What's more, they just showed their faces in front of the emperor and hurried back to Jinling's ancestral graves to worship their ancestors. No matter how they looked at it, they were not someone who could offend a kid like them who had no official position or anything.
Even the head of the family had to bow his head in front of the Viscount.
Oh, by the way, I also have a first-class lady in my family who can face saints.
"I understand these principles, but I just feel uncomfortable..." Yao Xixing gritted his teeth and said, "But how can they do such a thing? Do they know their last names? Do they know what is inside and what is outside?
Just for a few untouchables, if their clan brothers are thrown into prison, are they still not human beings?"
"Who knows, anyway, that's what I heard from the information." Yao Danqing shrank his neck and said, "Recently, my father told me to be more honest and not to commit crimes outside. If someone really catches me, he is afraid.
It’s not easy to deal with.”
By the way, Yao Danqing also said that the old lady had not seen the Yao family in Jinling since she came from Beijing. Although people said that she was not in good health, she would see you when the Viscount came.
After coming here, I did arrange to hold several banquets...
"But think about it, why didn't this old lady show up when we held a banquet?" Yao Danqing said in a low voice, "Later, my father felt that something was wrong and thought that this matter should be some kind of signal."
"Some kind of signal? That's not it, right? Doesn't it mean that the old lady is old, in poor health, has been jailed, and is running around... it's very possible that she won't be able to survive?"
Yao Xixing actually asked such a question. Not to mention Yao Danqing, even a few others felt stupid.
Another person with some connections jumped out and said: "Why do you think the old lady is dying? If she is dying, why would she suddenly adopt a baby? Haven't you heard that the reason why the old lady adopts a baby is
Milk Baby, it’s because someone cured her disease...it’s said to be a miracle doctor.”
"Miracle doctor?" Yao Xixing was stunned for a moment. He seemed to have heard about this, but he didn't take it to heart.
After all, who is sick these days and doesn’t want to hire a “miracle doctor”?
There are other things like raising dolls. Aren’t they just things that people who are afraid of death are trying to trick themselves into doing?
However, this person has a mysterious face and is telling the truth. You have no evidence, so it is really difficult to refute him.
What's more, when this person said this, he just wanted to remind Yao Xixing that the old lady's absence was not necessarily because of poor health. It might also be some kind of "signal" as Yao Danqing said.
Yao Xixing paused and said, "Then what do you think the signal will be?"
Yao Dan shrugged and said: "No matter what the signal is, it will definitely not be a good thing. Think about it, if it is a good thing, then what is the old lady hiding?"
"But..." Yao Xixing said hesitantly. It was not like he had never been in contact with the Yao family in the capital, especially the second master Yao. They even drank together.
He found that Mr. Yao was quite good at playing. There was nothing he didn't know about eating, drinking and having fun.
However, Second Master Yao has a "Rouge Tiger" at home. Second Master Yao plays with everything except women given by others, which makes him a little disappointed.
If possible, Yao Xixing would also like to give some skinny horses to Mr. Yao to hug his thighs.
Speaking of Mr. Yao, no one in the room spoke for a while, because they had all drank with Mr. Yao, and even after drinking, they talked about all kinds of nonsense.
It feels like they have become brothers, and they are the same race. Even if they can't hold each other's arms, they won't become enemies, right?
The results of it?
As a result, they hesitated, and they didn't know what the Yao family in the capital meant.
A few people were talking when they saw Yao Deyi, the only person who had ever had contact with Mrs. Yao, appear at the door. As he was pushing the door open, he suddenly saw everyone looking over and was stunned for a moment.
"What are you..." Yao Deyi looked down at himself in confusion, "What's wrong? Are you wearing the wrong clothes?"
No, it's just what I usually wear. It's quite handsome.
"Ouch, it's you brat, come here quickly." Yao Danqing quickly stepped forward, took Yao Deyi over, and pressed him on the chair.
Yao Deyi, who was surrounded by everyone, looked confused: "What are you doing? Are you trying to trick me? I can tell you, I have no money..."
"I'm not trying to trick you, I just want to ask you something."
"What do you want to ask me?"
"You've seen that old lady, right? How do you think she is? Does she look like she's going to be seriously ill?"
Yao Deyi laughed when he heard the question and said: "Isn't it right? Do you also believe the rumors outside? Hahahahaha... There is something going on with the old lady's health. Do you think the Viscount and the others are still in the mood to see this family?
What kind of banquet are they having at that house? What do you think?"
After what he said, everyone finally reacted.
Well, if the old lady is in trouble, the Viscount and the others will definitely not be in the mood to hold a banquet.
However, if the old lady is fine, she will never show up...
Yao Xixing then asked: "Does the old lady dislike us?"
"How do you know?" Yao Deyi was surprised. He had never told anyone about this. How did these people know?
"Really? Why doesn't she like us? We've never even met, let alone offended her..." Yao Xixing felt that he had wronged himself.
If you say that you have offended him after meeting him in person, he will be convinced, but you are disgusted with him without even meeting him in person. Is this too much?
Yao Deyi said: "I don't know about this. I only realized it later. I didn't know it at first. At first, I thought the old lady didn't like to have contact with 'outsiders'..."
"Why are we outsiders? Our surname is Yao." Before Yao Deyi could finish speaking, Yao Xixing became dissatisfied and said hurriedly.
"I know, but this is an outsider. It's not us who have the final say, it's the old lady who has the final say." Yao Deyi shrugged and said indifferently, "Maybe in the old lady's view, his son and grandson are the only ones who have the final say.
We are our own people, we are separated by who knows how many rooms, and we don’t have much contact with each other on a daily basis, so what are we if we are not outsiders?”
Well, this reason is very strong and convinced them.
Of course, some people are dissatisfied, saying that everyone's surname is Yao, and "everyone is prosperous, and every loss is a loss." How can he be an outsider? That old lady has long hair, short knowledge, and a small belly.
"I didn't say this, you said it. If it gets spread in the future, don't blame me." Yao Deyi was so cunning, so he quickly brushed it off.
Although he plays with them, he has a serious job and cannot let his reputation be ruined by them.
Besides, this old lady is a first-class lady. She can think whatever she wants, and there's nothing you can do about her.
You can't, why don't you come to your door to make trouble?
There is no fuss, just rely on the words "rely on the old and sell the old", it is useless no matter how reasonable you are.
