Chapter 7 The Doomed Xiao Family
Chapter 7 The Doomed Xiao Family
It was late in the evening, under the dim sky, most people on the street had already returned home, and the road was deserted and desolate. Nie Quan couldn't help beating his heart when he saw the stone road getting darker and darker.
At the end of a dark and far-reaching road, Nie Quan finally met the grandfather's house that Su Qingtian was talking about.
This is not a small mansion. The two stone lions in front of the gate are mighty and domineering under the illumination of the lights, and the scarlet gate is covered with neat nails.
Two Fu Bing in armor were standing guard with their heads held high. Behind each of them was a big knife, and their right hands were tightly held on the handle of the knife on the back waist, as if they were all guards. momentum.
Xiao Mansion? !
Looking at the large characters on the plaque, Nie Quan couldn't help but twitch his mouth.
This little girl actually brought her here with all her twists and turns? !
This is the mansion of Old General Xiao, why is it her grandfather's house? !
Although the county where Nie Quan is located is far away from here, they all belong to the border area, so they have more or less heard the story of the Xiao Mansion in front of them.
It is said that old General Xiao angered the current Holy Majesty for unknown reasons, His Majesty expelled the Xiao family to this Fengcheng town to guard the frontier fortress.
Even the offshoots related to the Xiao family were excluded, and the Xiao family entrenched in this land far away, gradually no one cares about it.
Even though those dignitaries in the capital cast aside the Xiao family, for the people in the border areas, the Xiao family is already the patron saint in their hearts.
Since Old General Xiao came here with a group of Xiao family sons, the frontier fortress has not been invaded by foreigners for many years.
The people finally realized what it means to live and work in peace and contentment, and what it means to live a life full of hope.
They no longer fear that the city will be attacked in the middle of the night, that they will not be able to see the sun the next day, and they no longer worry that there will be no work or way out for survival.
During these years of General Xiao's management, in addition to stabilizing the surrounding wars, he also worked with the government to clean up the official roads and wipe out the running bandits, so that the business exchanges in the frontier can be carried out normally.
Many people rely on these stable pipelines to live a prosperous life, and even the trade in the surrounding small counties has increased. With the money in the hands of the common people, they can afford cows to build houses, and the reclamation of farmland has gradually increased.
Nie Quan's daughter-in-law's cousin is a traveling merchant. Every time he came back from a trip and made money, he would bring some novelties to his daughter, which made the little girl very happy.
No matter how you look at it, the little girl in the car has nothing to do with the Xiao family.
Just when Nie Quan thought he had made a mistake and was about to drive away in the carriage, Su Qingtian in the carriage suddenly lifted the curtain, jumped off the carriage, and walked straight to the gate of Xiao Mansion.
"Stop! General Xiao's mansion, the idlers are waiting to leave!"
The government soldiers strode forward to stop the little girl who was only as tall as his own legs, and scolded coldly.
Nie Quan, who was following Su Qingtian, broke into a cold sweat from the aura of the government soldiers. He was just a yamen servant, and he was no match for these veterans who fought on the battlefield.
What's more, this is a soldier led by Old General Xiao. Although he retired to take up duty in the mansion, it is not easy for anyone to provoke him.
Nie Quan ran a few steps and put his arms around Su Qingtian's small body, trying to protect the little girl from going back, but the girl spoke without fear.
"I am Xiao Gang's granddaughter, and my name is Su Qingtian."
This sentence made the three of them stunned. The Fu Bing didn't expect that this little baby would have the courage to declare her family, but Nie Quan didn't expect that she was really the granddaughter of Old General Xiao.
After finishing speaking, Xiaowa lowered her head and kept digging in her sleeves with her small hands.
Under the gaze of the six eyes, she took out a green jade token, and she held Nie Quan's arm at her waist with one hand, and handed the jade token to the soldier on tiptoe.
"This is my mother's jade card, grandpa deserves it."
The two government soldiers glanced at each other, and finally took the jade token from the little girl's hand.
Under the bright lights, the soldiers of the government could clearly recognize that this jade plaque was almost exactly the same as those of the young masters, and when they reversed the layout, the words Xiao Hongyan appeared immediately.
Isn't this Missy's real name? !
The faces of the two changed slightly, and they agreed to leave one to watch Su Qingtian and Nie Quan, while the other rushed into the mansion holding the jade card.
Naturally, Nie Quan also saw the expression of the Fubing, and subconsciously looked down at the little girl in his arms.
Su Qingtian seemed to be hungry. After handing over the jade token, she took out a pastry and gnawed on it. When she looked up and saw Nie Quan looking at her, she thought that the man was also hungry, so she took out a new pastry from her sleeve and handed it to him. man.
Nie Quan shook his head, and glanced at the little girl's sleeves. She was wearing a long-sleeved blouse. How many things were hidden in the small cuffs?
Seeing that Nie Quan refused to eat, Su Qingtian ate the first piece of pastry in a few mouthfuls, and then happily ate the second piece.
While the two were waiting in this quiet street, the Xiao Mansion was already in chaos.
Xiao Nan, the youngest son of the Xiao family Dalang, is struggling and sick.
Three days ago, he suddenly fell into a coma with a high fever. He invited all the doctors in the city to see him, but they were all at a loss. Everyone expressed regret and hinted that Xiao's residence was ready to send white-haired people to black-haired people.
The frontier is remote, even if he rushed to the capital to invite a famous doctor to see him, Xiao Nan's small body might not be able to last for so long.
"Is there really no way?"
Sitting in a wheelchair, Xiao Yichen looked at his little nephew, who was covered in scarlet and hot, and who was gradually having difficulty breathing.
His voice was choked with sobs, "Really...is it true that you can't even keep your only flesh and blood?"
He hammered down the armrest of the wheelchair angrily, but apart from being unable to vent his disabled body, it was very difficult for him to even stand up.
Xiao Hanyue, the leader of the Xiao family, is Xiao Nan's father and the eldest son of Old General Xiao. He was shot by a poisonous arrow on the battlefield and has not woken up since he fell into a coma.
The elder sister-in-law has been taking care of the elder brother all these years, and finally passed away due to illness last year due to overwork.
now……
Thinking of what happened to the Xiao family in these years, Xiao Yichen's face was full of grief.
Ever since the Xiao family was demoted to leave the capital, the entire family has been in bad luck. People in the family died and were injured. People who were healthy before would collapse immediately if they fell ill.
If you are lucky, you can recover after a few days of recuperation, but if you are not lucky, you will die.
Even the domestic animals were not spared, none of them lived beyond three years, and the horses were kept far away in the suburbs, and they dared not keep them in the mansion.
Although Xiao Yichen has never returned to Beijing, he has also heard from merchants that people in the capital laugh at their Xiao family's poison cave, a place where evil spirits will be poisoned to death if they enter.
But this mansion was bestowed by the emperor, so it is not allowed to move out without authorization.
I thought it would be bad luck or a poisonous ghost, as long as they adults bear the burden, I didn't expect it to extend to the younger generation now.
The man's eyes turned red involuntarily, and he stretched out his hand to hold the hot palm of his little nephew, the suppressed tears in his eyes were about to fall.
"Could it be that our Xiao family is really..."
The disaster star came to the world?
