Translator: 549690339
“This…” The eldest son of the Xu family was a little troubled.” I’m afraid 1 won’t even be able to see the family head before I’m chased out.”
“It’s fine. As long as big brother says that my Chen family has something to see the family head, they won’t dare to stop him!”Speaking up to this point, Chen Guang changed his humble attitude and said with a domineering expression.
“Alright, alright.”
The eldest son of the Xu family was intimidated by Chen Guang and subconsciously went out.
He only woke up when he left the main hall. However, since he had already come out, the eldest son of the Xu family could only bite the bullet and head to the direct descendant of the Xu family.
“Stop!”
In front of the main entrance of the Xu family’s residence, the Xu family’s guards stopped the eldest son of the Xu family.
“I’m a member of the Xu family’s branch family. I’m here to see the family head.’The eldest son of the Xu family said respectfully.
When the guards saw this, they looked at each other and immediately said,”Why have you come this time?”
When the eldest son of the Xu family saw this, his heart skipped a beat. It was over. He really couldn’t even enter the door now.
But even so, the eldest son of the Xu family still braced himself and said,”My third sister has returned. Her husband is the eighth elder of the Chen family and is requesting to see the family head.”
“A married woman has returned, and the family head has to be dispatched. Even the direct descendants don’t have such treatment.”The Zuo family’s general’s eyes revealed a mocking expression.
“Shut up.”
The guard on the right chided the guard on the left and looked at the eldest son of the Xu family.” The Chen family you mentioned, is it the Chen family of Nanyang?”
“That’s right.”
“Wait here, 1’11 go report.”
About ten minutes later, the general returned, and the person who followed him was the Xu family’s head.
“Where is the Chen Clan’s eighth elder now?” Master Xu asked.
The eldest son of the Xu family was stunned. He did not expect his brother-in-law to be so famous. He asked the family head to see him and the family head really came.
When had the Xu family’s master ever gone to see his son-in-law?
When the Xu family head asked him, the eldest son of the Xu family came to his senses and quickly said,”Reporting to Patriarch, my brother-in-law is at my house. 1’11 get him to come over now.”
“No need. 1’11 go see it myself. Lead the way.”Master Xu said.
“Alright, alright.”
The eldest son of the Xu family hurriedly brought the head of the Xu family to his house.
Along the way, countless members of the branch family watched attentively. They only recovered when they saw the Xu family head enter Xu Qiu’s residence.
For a moment, the entire branch family was in an uproar.
The family head had actually come. Could it be because of Xu Ningyun’s return?
But when had he ever heard of a family head welcoming his daughter home? If everyone was like this, wouldn’t the family head be so busy?
Thinking about it, it was still because of the Chen family. The Chen family was strong and powerful, and even Xu Qiu’s family enjoyed such glory.
In the main hall, Xu Qiu was anxiously waiting for the results.
To be honest, he wasn’t sure if the family head would come. However, his son-in-law had already spoken. Even if it was embarrassing, he had to make a trip to the main courtyard.
Now, he could only pray that the family head was free and could let his son-in-law pay him a visit.
“Brother Qiu, why didn’t you tell me that Ning Yun was back? It’s as if I, as an uncle, don’t like my niece.”
Suddenly, a voice came from outside the main hall.
Xu Qiu was stunned when he heard the voice.
This… Wasn’t that the voice of the family head? The family head actually came personally!
Xu Qiu had originally planned that it would be good enough if the family head was kind enough to let Chen Guang go and see him. However, who would have thought that the family head would actually come personally?
Xu Qiu immediately stood up to welcome him.
At this moment, the Xu family head also walked in. Seeing this, he quickly helped Xu Qiu to a chair and scolded,”Brother Qiu, you’re not young anymore, and you haven’t even broken through to Unlocking Meridians yet, so why do you still care so much about etiquette?”
“Besides, why do we need to be so polite when we meet?”
“Good, good. The Patriarch is right.” Xu Qiu laughed.
“Hmm?” Anger appeared on Master Xu’s face.” What did you call me? You should call me Brother Li, understand?”
“Yes, yes, yes. It’s my mistake. I should call you Brother Li.”
Seeing this, Master Xu smiled again.” That’s right.”
After exchanging a few words with Xu Qiu, the Xu family head looked at Chen Guang. Seeing this, Chen Guang cupped his hands and bowed,”The eighth elder of the Chen family greets the Xu family head.”
The Xu Family Head was stunned for a moment before he hurriedly returned the greeting.” Xu Yingli greets Elder Chen.””
Xu Yingli knew that Chen Guang said this because he had something important to discuss with him. Xu Yingli immediately looked at Xu Qiu.
When the cunning Xu Qiu saw this, he quickly smiled and said,””Boss, quickly help me out. Let’s see if the banquet is ready.”
“Yes.”
The eldest son of the Xu family quickly helped Xu Qiu up. At the same time, the Xu family members also left.
Soon, only Xu Yingli and Chen Guang were left in the main hall.
Outside the main hall, Xu Qiu looked at the sun. He had never felt so happy before.
Even the head of the Xu family called him brother. Xu Qiu didn’t even dare to dream about it.
In the past, Xu Yingli would not even look at him in the eye even if Xu Qiu addressed him as the family head with a flattering expression, let alone a brother.
Thinking about it, this was all his daughter’s credit. She had found a good husband, and even he was enjoying the glory.
“Daughter, the most glorious thing in my life was giving birth to you.”
“Father, you flatter me.”
In the main hall.
Xu Yingli looked at Chen Guang.” Elder Chen, what’s the matter?””
When Chen Guang saw this, he put down the teacup in his hand and smiled.”My clan head sent me here to save the Xu clan from its predicament.”
“Oh? What predicament does my Xu family have? Elder Chen, please tell me the truth.” Xu Yingli said.
When Chen Guang saw this, he smiled and shook his head.” Master Xu, no matter what, I’m still the son-in-law of the Xu family. Why do you have to hide it from me?”
“Besides, everyone knows about the Xu family’s difficulties. How can we hide it?”
Xu Yingli sighed.” Sigh, the Xu family is in trouble!”
“It is precisely because it is difficult that my master sent me to save the Xu family.”Chen Guang said with a smile.
“I’m willing to listen to Elder Chen’s teachings.”
“I don’t dare to teach you. If you save the Xu family, my Chen family will also benefit.”Chen Guang took out a piece of yellow paper and handed it to Xu Yingli.
“This is a letter from my family head to the Xu family head. After you read it, you will know the Chen family’s plans.”
Xu Yingli glanced at Chen Guang, then took the letter. After reading it carefully, he looked at Xu Yingli again.” Chen Clan Head, you mean to join forces with my Xu Clan to compete for the Darksteel Mine’s share?”
“Naturally.” Chen Guang nodded.
“But the Chen Family is only a Rank-9, and my Xu Family is also exhausted. How can we compare to those three peak Rank-8 aristocratic families?”Xu Yingli was puzzled.
Seeing this, Chen Guang picked up his teacup and blew at the hot air. Then, he leisurely took a sip.” Since my Chen family dares to ally with the Xu family, we naturally have the confidence to deal with the three aristocratic families.”
When Xu Yingli heard this, he held his teacup and kept thinking about the possibility of Yang Chen’s plan.
After a while, Xu Yingli crushed the teacup in his hand and said,”Alright, I agree to the Chen family’s request! However, I don’t understand. Since the two sides are planning to form an alliance, why isn’t the Chen Clan Leader here?”
“Of course, I’m not looking down on Elder Chen. It’s just that it’s better for the two family heads to discuss such a major matter.”
“I understand what Master Xu means, but has Master Xu ever thought that if my Master visits the Xu Family, wouldn’t it give the other three families time to prepare?”
“Now that the Chen family is using me as an excuse to form an alliance with the Xu family, it will definitely be able to numb the three great families. If we suddenly work together, we can achieve great things.”Chen Guang said with a smile.
Xu Yingli understood and immediately smiled.” 1 see. 1 was too rash. Please forgive me, Elder Chen.””
“By the way, Elder Chen, when will our two families take action?”
“According to my family head, this matter should not be delayed. On the fifteenth of this month, our two families will take action.”Chen Guang said.
“The 15th of this month? Doesn’t that mean there are still ten days left?” Xu Yingli pondered for a while and then nodded.” Alright, the fifteenth of this month.” Then who should we deal with first?”
“Chu Clan of Jiangyou Prefecture.”
“Chu Clan of Jiangyou Prefecture? Why the Chu Clan? The Chu Clan is quite far away from our two clans.”Xu Yingli frowned.
Chen Guang raised his eyebrows and smiled.” 1 chose the Chu family first because the two families in Zuoling County and Youling County are brothers.”
“In the past, we were originally a family. Now that the world had changed, the hatred between the two families had long been eliminated. What was left was only the kinship between the two families..”
