Chapter 478 Brother-in
-law The three of them were chatting in the study, and Xu Muhua also took the opportunity to learn more about the border.
As long as it didn't involve any confidential military intelligence, General Xu thought it was okay to tell her about it, just as telling a story.
Before the story was finished, someone came to the front yard to say that someone from the Xu Mansion next door had come, saying that they knew that the concubine would return home today, so they came to pay a special visit.
Xu Jiang and Xu Rui, who were originally talking and laughing, stopped laughing and their expressions became cold.
General Xu looked at his daughter, as if asking her what she meant.
He didn't need to ask to know that his wife must have mentioned this to his daughter.
To be honest, he was also very surprised.
When their family was sent out, his wife mentioned it in a letter. He was also a little confused in his heart. He thought he knew a little about this cousin. He
had ambitions, but he didn't have the ability to match his ambitions. The only possibility that could make him accept the exile was that it was related to his ambition.
But he was already far away from the border at that time, and he could not interfere in the affairs of the capital. Besides, no matter what they wanted to do, as long as it did not involve the Chengguo Mansion, it was up to them.
He didn't care about the life and death of others.
I didn't expect them to come back so soon, and it was said that they had made great contributions. This is strange.
Xu Muhua smiled and said, "They are all relatives. Since they have come to my house, if I don't see them, wouldn't people say that I am arrogant because of my status?" If
it gets out, it will also damage the reputation of the Chengguo Mansion. General
Xu nodded.
Xu Rui said, "If they do something unhappy again, don't give them face."
"Brother, when have you ever seen me suffer a loss?"
If she was wronged, she would make the other party suffer more.
Xu Rui smiled and wanted to reach out to touch her head, but then he remembered that she was married now. He put his hand down again, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Time flies so fast. In the blink of an eye, the petite girl who once chased after him and called him brother has grown up and got married.
Maybe she will have a child soon. In this case, wouldn't he be an uncle?
Thinking of this, Xu Rui couldn't help but get excited.
He will definitely be a good uncle in the future!
The three of them came to the front yard living room, where Xu Dexing's family was sitting on chairs and talking to Xu's mother.
As soon as Xu Muhua entered the living room, she noticed a pair of eyes falling on her.
She looked over sensitively and saw a strange man.
She frowned.
Seeing them coming, Xu's mother stood up and said, "Knowing that you are coming back today, your uncle and his family came to your house with gifts and wanted to see you."
Xu Jiang first glanced at the strange man in the living room and questioned his wife with his eyes.
Xu's mother saw it and suddenly came over and said, "This is Yuyao's husband."
Xu Muhua was surprised to hear this and couldn't help but look over.
The other party immediately stood up and bowed, "Ziqiao has met the Duke, the Crown Prince, and the Concubine."
Even if he was dissatisfied in his heart, he could not show it at this time.
So General Xu still smiled and looked very approachable, "We are all relatives, so there is no need to be polite."
Although he said so, Su Ziqiao did not become presumptuous because of this. He was very measured in his actions, decent and generous.
Xu Muhua stared at him for a while, and Xu Yuyao became nervous and stood in front of him. He looked at Xu Muhua with a hint of hostility, as if he was afraid that she would steal her husband.
"I never expected that before I left, Sister Mu Hua had not yet reached the age of marriage, but when I came back, you had already become the Crown Prince's concubine. It's also my fault. I felt a little uncomfortable on the way and wasted some time. Otherwise, I would have been able to return before Sister Mu Hua's wedding day."
Xu Yuyao's face was full of regret.
Who can't act?
Xu Muhua held her hand with his backhand and said magnanimously: "It's good that your intention is there. I know you will definitely bless me. I don't blame your Sister Yuyao, don't take it to heart."
After that, without waiting for her to speak, he imitated her just now, with a look of regret, "Sister Yuyao is married, and I didn't know the news. If I knew that Sister Yuyao was married, I would definitely send someone to send gifts."
"It's a pity that I didn't see Sister Yuyao get married, but I am also very happy that Sister Yuyao can find happiness again!"
She called Sister Yuyao left and right, and Xu Yuyao was about to develop some kind of disgust for her own name!
Why did she never think that her name was so ugly?
Her expression froze for a moment, but when she saw her husband beside her, she couldn't help blushing, "It's fate. I didn't expect to find my own happiness in Yancheng."
Yancheng is where Xu Dexing was exiled.
Although this place is called Yancheng, it is not actually rich in salt. Instead, another city not far from Yancheng is rich in salt.
Xu Muhua took the opportunity to set his eyes on Su Zijiao, and did not avoid it at all. Xu Yuyao almost changed her face. The people present also looked strange.
What is the prince's concubine going to do?
Li secretly curled her lips.
What a mean person. When she sees a good-looking man, she stares at him regardless of her married status. Shameless!
"Isn't my brother-in-law from Dayong? Why do I think he looks a little different from the average Dayong person?"
After Xu Muhua said this, the other members of the Xu family all set their eyes on Su Zijiao, staring at him and sizing him up.
"Well, you know what, he really looks a little different."
Xu Rui stared at him for a while before commenting, "He looks a bit like a Pishan person."
Su Zijiao smiled, his expression natural, "I didn't expect that the Concubine had such a good eye that she could tell right away. Yes, I actually have Pishan blood in me. My father is from Dayong, and my mother is from Pishan. So I look like both a Dayong person and a Pishan person."
General Xu said, "So that's how it is, no wonder."
He didn't find it strange, because there are many such marriages in the border areas. The conditions in the border areas are harsh, the population is small, and people from other places are unwilling to marry into such a poor place as the border areas, so many men there marry girls from small countries in the surrounding areas.
There are also women from the border areas who marry into small countries in the surrounding areas, but they are much fewer in comparison.
"It turns out that my brother-in-law is a mixed-race!"
Everyone was stunned for a moment, and Xu Jiang came back to his senses and laughed out loud, "The word mixed-race is a good description!"
"How did my brother-in-law and Sister Yuyao know each other?"
