Xu Yingting decided for the time being not to frighten his mother first.

At the very least, let's talk about it together when his dad gets back.

After finishing their meal quietly, Xu Huantang strolled over and nodded with the air of an elder, saying, "Not bad, it seems that our Xu family has also developed quite well in later generations."

Seeing his mother and aunt preparing fruit for them in the kitchen, Xu Yingting said, "That's right."

"Our family has produced quite a few talented people!"

“One of my ancestors was a great doctor who was praised by many patients who said he was a doctor with miraculous healing skills.”

"Another one is an international pianist who is currently on a concert tour!"

Xu Yingting speaks of his family with great pride.

Xu Huantang listened with satisfaction, nodding repeatedly, and then asked, "And what about you?"

Xu Yingting was momentarily speechless.

He should be considered to have achieved some success, right?

He also received an individual third-class merit award and a collective third-class merit award!

It's never good to boast, so Jiang Si said, "He defends the country and is an unsung hero who contributes to the people."

Perhaps recalling seeing Xu Yingting in military uniform before, Xu Huantang said with some emotion, "A man should stand in this world for his country and his people."

A surge of pride rose in Xu Yingting's heart: "Great-grandfather is right."

In my excitement, I spoke a little louder.

Mrs. Xu stood at the kitchen doorway, somewhat stunned: "What nonsense are you talking about?"

He looked at them with a sharp gaze, "Are you guys cosplaying?"

It's really quite a difficult excuse that Mrs. Xu came up with.

I almost mistook them for lunatics.

Qi Yan stepped forward and helped Xu's mother carry the fruit platter. "Wow, thank you, Auntie. It looks delicious."

Qi Yan was incredibly cute, and almost every elder loved him. Upon hearing the voice, Xu's mother's attention was immediately drawn to him, her heart melting. She patted Qi Yan's little head and asked, "Is there more inside?"

"You're so thin, you need to eat more."

Xu Yingting breathed a sigh of relief.

She glanced at Qi Yan gratefully.

Xu Huantang sat upright on the sofa and ordered, "Bring me the family tree."

Xu Yingting: "..."

He quietly walked over, looked straight ahead, and whispered, "There are a lot of people now, I'll give it to you later."

The maid is still here.

The servants have their own group chat, and if it gets leaked by accident, it could sound like the young master of the Xu family went out to serve in the army and came back crazy, or that the Xu family is haunted.

Although half of it is true.

Around eight or nine o'clock, Mr. Xu finally returned.

He heard from his wife at work that their son was coming home today with a female friend.

Although Mrs. Xu said they looked like ordinary friends, it couldn't stop Mr. Xu's desire to have a grandson. If he hadn't had a social engagement today, he would have wanted to come back and visit long ago.

My wife said she's very beautiful, like a celebrity.

We're just friends now, but who knows what will happen in the future.

My son has been single for over twenty years, but this is the first time he's brought home a female friend he's never met before.

As soon as he returned, the first thing he saw was the group of people in the living room.

Jiang Si stood up, nodded and smiled, "Mr. Xu."

Mr. Xu's eyes lit up; she was indeed very beautiful. He just didn't know if his silly son could win her over.

"Hello," he stepped forward, "I'm sorry, I really had something to do at the company today and couldn't get away. Please forgive me if I've been negligent in any way."

Xu Yingting had to interrupt his beloved father.

"Dad, we have something to tell you."

He spoke seriously, which made Mr. Xu think more deeply.

Could it be that this young man and woman did something without consulting the authorities first, and were afraid that the other party wouldn't agree?

He couldn't help but feel resentful. Were they such an irresponsible family?

Jiang Si was good at reading people's expressions, and she clearly saw through Xu's father's expression.

"..."

This is a huge misunderstanding.

And, I'm sorry to disappoint them.

Xu Yingting's true love will not appear until he is twenty-eight years old, which is five years from now. As for his grandson, he may have to wait another year or two.

In the study, Xu Yingting's expression became even more serious.

Mr. and Mrs. Xu looked anxious. "What exactly happened?"

"Dad, Mom, please don't be afraid."

After saying this, he turned to Jiang Si and asked, "Master Jiang, you know first aid, right?" His comrade was burned like that, and he was able to treat him properly. This kind of thing shouldn't be too serious, right?

Jiang Si: "..."

"There will definitely be no problem."

Mr. Xu: "What's wrong with you, acting all mysterious?"

Aunt Xu: "Did you get into some trouble outside?"

Jiang Si stepped forward and said, "Mr. Xu, Mrs. Xu, I am the Taoist priest entrusted by your son Xu Yingting. I have come today to deal with a matter concerning your family. Since the matter is rather complicated, I need to inform you both."

"Huh?" they both exclaimed in unison.

Celestial Master? Did they hear that right? Is it the Celestial Master they're thinking of?

"I'm sorry," Jiang Si said, then used the same method to disable their Heavenly Eye.

Before they could react, and as they blinked in confusion, they saw an old man dressed in the clothes of a previous dynasty sitting on the sofa behind them.

The two of them gasped.

If there weren't outsiders present, they would have shouted a few words.

Xu Yingting looked at their expressions and asked, "Mom and Dad, are you alright?"

"What is that?" Mr. Xu forced himself to calm down.

"This is my great-grandfather, Dad. Look, he looks exactly like the photo."

They see this photo wall every day, and it looks somewhat familiar. Isn't that his second uncle?

My second uncle had no children his whole life, and I heard from the older generation that he died in despair.

As expected of a man who had seen many storms, Mr. Xu stepped forward cautiously and asked, "Second Uncle, is there something you wish to do?"

This is simply human nature.

Wandering in this world, what else is there besides unfulfilled wishes?

Xu Huantang looked him up and down and said, "You're Cheng Jing's youngest son?"

Mr. Xu nodded in agreement.

This feeling is really weird.

He never imagined that so many years later, he would be being scolded not from below, but from above.

Mrs. Xu also stepped forward.

"I've met my second uncle."

After exchanging awkward pleasantries, they got down to business.

"Is there anything we can do? Should we inform the rest of the family?" Mr. Xu asked.

Jiang Si said, "That's fine. We can ask the older generation in your family to see if anything happened back then."

After hearing this, Mrs. Xu's expression turned somewhat strange.

Jiang Si noticed her expression and glanced at the old man beside her.

Xu Huantang fell back into that dazed and confused state.

Seeing this, Jiang Si put the person into the Soul Nourishing Bottle.

“He’s tired, let him rest first,” Jiang Si explained, then asked Xu’s mother, “Do you know something?”

Seeing that Xu Huantang was also gone, Xu's mother said, "I've heard about this from the older generation."

"If there's something he can't let go of, it must be what happened that year."
