The first thousand two hundred and forty-seven chapters
"No, Mr. Xiao, I called you today because I want to tell you about another important matter. It's about your Xiao family." Yang Tian said.
"Oh? The Xiao family? What do you want to know about the Xiao family?" Mr. Xiao said with some curiosity.
"I want to know why Xiao Qiangwei's mother's tomb cannot be placed in the Xiao family ancestral hall?" Yang Tian simply went straight to the point.
When Mr. Xiao heard this, he was obviously surprised. He was stunned for about two or three seconds before he replied, "So that's it. It seems that Qiangwei has already told you? Is there something going on between you two?"
Has there been any progress?" "There hasn't been any progress between us. It was this silly girl who practiced hard and almost went crazy. After I stopped her, she reluctantly told me," Yang Tiandao said. "After I heard this, I was really confused.
I remember you and the second wife of the Xiao family
I care about her so much, how could I allow this kind of thing to happen?" After hearing this, Mr. Xiao was silent for a few seconds, sighed, with a bit of bitterness in his voice, and said: "You will be confused, and also very worried.
It's normal. Indeed, it is too much for Qiangwei's mother's body to be buried in the ancestral hall, but there is a reason for this. Qiangwei's mother died more than ten years ago, when I just took over as the head of the Xiao family. At that time
Before, that is, when my father was in power, my father and my second father were famous twin geniuses at that time. They both had outstanding talents.
Their talents also broke through at a relatively young age compared to other strong people, and became a truly top strong person. Therefore, the Xiao family at that time was jointly managed by the two of them."
"Joint management?" Yang Tiandao. "Yes. At that time, there were two main lines of the Xiao family, that is, of these two lines, one started from my father, and the other started from my second uncle.
Mr. Xiao said, "So, they decided to simply take care of their own affairs."
Matters concerning the pulse will only be discussed together when it involves major matters."
Yang Tian finally understood this part, paused, and said, "You mean, you couldn't take care of Xiao Qiangwei's mother when she died?" "It doesn't mean that you can't take care of it. I didn't know about it at all," Mr. Xiao
He said, "After I took over the Xiao family, my father and second uncle both handed over their power to me, which was regarded as giving me full power to manage the Xiao family. Theoretically, I was able to manage the entire Xiao family at that time.
. But the problem is that in the past years, people in the second uncle's lineage have been accustomed to minding their own affairs. After Haruyuki died, they were also accustomed to taking care of things single-handedly.
It was not reported to me at all. And at that time, I was taking over the Xiao family and studying the art of refining medicine at the same time. I really didn’t have the time to take the initiative to learn about anything, so...by the time I knew about it, everything had already happened.
It’s done.”
"No, what about...the second prince? If those people are used to the old way, they should report it to the second prince, right? Doesn't the second prince care?" Yang Tian asked. "This is also a matter of timing, too bad.
What a coincidence," Mr. Xiao sighed and said, "just because I felt so relaxed after the power was handed over to me, my father and my second uncle both went into seclusion to practice, hoping to seek a breakthrough to a higher level.
He had been in seclusion for several years. And the people of his lineage... to put it bluntly, they didn't think the death of Haruyuki's child was a big deal, so they didn't bother the second prince. So... the second prince was actually unaware at the time.
Only later did we know
road."
Mr. Xiao's words were frank and sincere, without any intention of lying. In fact, he had no need to lie at all.
After hearing this, Yang Tian was a little speechless.
He never imagined that there were such complicated reasons for this matter.
It seems that a large family like the Xiao family may have various internal problems due to its large size.
The pitiful experience of Xiao Qiangwei's mother is a tragedy caused by the combination of many coincidences and some people's bad ideas.
Yang Tian was silent for a few seconds and said: "Well, Mr. Xiao, since you and the Second Master are aware of this problem, why don't you correct it immediately? With your power, you can't do it, right?"
Mr. Xiao said: "It's not impossible, but it needs a reason."
"Why?" Yang Tian was confused. "According to tradition, only when the relevant people encounter great joy or tragedy can the spirit tablets be entered into the ancestral hall," Mr. Xiao said, "such as death, wedding, and the marriage of children. Otherwise,
You can't enter, otherwise you will destroy what has been passed down from your ancestors.
rule."
"I understand that you can only enter the ancestral temple after death, but why does it involve marriage?" Yang Tian asked. "In short, even if an outsider marries the Xiao family, they can also enter the ancestral temple. They can enter when they get married, but
Most of the time we don't do this because we think it's unlucky and we wait until after death before doing it," Mr. Xiao said. "As for my son,
It is also simple for a girl to get married. For example, if the daughter of an outsider marries a son of our Xiao family, if necessary, the outsider can make an exception and enter the ancestral hall."
"I understand," Yang Tian said, "but what about other things?" "Well, no," Mr. Xiao said, "otherwise, it will break the rules. I don't care, but there are still a lot of stubborn people in the Xiao family.
Sent, they will stand up and oppose. When the time comes, it will be very troublesome, and it may make that child Qiangwei feel uncomfortable.
It made me feel even more uncomfortable and painful, so...I didn’t choose to do this.”
Yang Tian finally understood it now.
He became somewhat silent.
Things in this big family are really complicated.
"Do you know why the Second Master and I asked Qiangwei to find you?" Mr. Xiao suddenly asked.
"Uh... To help her break through?" Yang Tian asked. "No, it's more than that," Mr. Xiao said, "If Qiangwei really marries you, it will be considered a big wedding. Although the reason is not perfect, it is still a reason.
We can take this opportunity to help Qiangwei move her mother's spirit to the ancestral hall.
, everyone is happy."
"Uh..." Yang Tian was stunned, "Is there such an operation?"
"Indeed, there is," Mr. Xiao said with a smile, "How about you consider it? Oh, by the way... I would also be very happy if you are willing to choose Jasmine. After all, the palms and backs of your hands are full of flesh."
Mr. Xiao really started to "sell" as he spoke. When Yang Tian heard this, he felt ashamed and said with a wry smile: "Are you asking me to choose a concubine? No, I can't bear it. But, what you said
