After introducing the grandfather and grandson, Xiao Changfeng's eyes fell on the group of people behind Xiao Ning. With a smile on his face, he asked gently:
"Are these your family members too?"
Xiao Ding nodded slightly and motioned for everyone to come forward. First, he introduced Song Junwan to Xiao Changfeng:
"Father, this is my... um... second wife, Song Junwan."
Song Junwan was surprised when she heard Xiao Ding's introduction. Over the years, Xiao Ding had never mentioned her identity in front of others. She had always presented herself as Xiao Ning's godmother.
However, this time, Xiao Ding actually called her the Second Madam for the first time. At this moment, her mood became extremely complicated, as if a bottle of five flavors had been overturned.
She involuntarily looked at Chu Qian, who was standing beside her. She was a little nervous, worried that the legal wife would be angry. However, Chu Qian did not show any sign of anger, as if she had already accepted her identity. Song Junwan felt a little relieved. She slowly stepped forward, gave a standard salute, and said softly:
"Song Junwan has met the two elders."
Xiao Yun looked at Song Junwan with a hint of friendliness in her eyes, and she greeted her with the same courtesy as she did to Chu Qian. The atmosphere of the whole scene seemed very harmonious, as warm as a family reunion.
Immediately afterwards, Xiyue and Zhou Youniang also stepped forward. They bowed respectfully and said, "Hello, elders. We are the young master's maids."
Then, Liu Yan stepped forward hesitantly. She didn't know how to explain her identity, so after thinking for a moment, she simply said:
"I am Xiao Ning's aunt, Liu Yan. Nice to meet you two."
Finally, Rong Rouxue appeared in front of everyone. Her beauty was amazing, and she exuded a powerful aura that made people shudder. She did not salute the two, but just stood there and said.
My name is Yourong Rouxue, I am Xiao Ning’s first wife, nice to meet you two.”
Everyone in the Xiao family looked at this beautiful woman, and a trace of fear surged in their hearts. They looked at each other, as if they were wondering if they had an illusion.
Finally, it was Xiao Ding who broke the silence softly:
"This Senior Yourong Rouxue is the leader of the Piaomiao Immortal Sect."
There was a hint of awe in his voice, as if reminding everyone that this woman was extraordinary. When the Xiao family heard this, they all opened their mouths in surprise, their faces full of disbelief.
Xiao Changfeng panicked even more. He quickly held Xiao Ning's hand and asked with a trembling voice, "Ning... Ning'er, did I hear correctly? She said she was your first wife? The leader of Piao Miao Xian Zong is your wife?"
Xiao Ning awkwardly held Xiao Changfeng's hand. He had long realized that Rong Rouxue's identity would definitely cause a sensation, so he was mentally prepared. He took a deep breath and then slowly said:
"Yes, Grandpa, Rong Rouxue is indeed my legitimate wife."
After Xiao Changfeng got a positive answer, an awkward smile appeared on his face. He then slowly stood up and bowed to Yourong Rouxue, his movements being a little stiff.
"Junior Xiao Changfeng meets Sect Master You Rong Rouxue."
An old man half buried in the ground actually called a young woman a junior. If you didn't see it with your own eyes, it would be hard to imagine. However, the fact is that Rong Rouxue is indeed older than Xiao Changfeng, even older than his father and grandfather!
Seeing this, You Rong Rouxue gently waved her hand, a gentle smile appeared on her face, and said: "Alas, I have resigned from the position of Sect Master now, so you don't have to call me Sect Master. Besides, I am Ning'er's wife. According to seniority, I am indeed your granddaughter-in-law, so it is not too much to call you Grandpa!"
The word "grandfather" made Xiao Changfeng's heart jump to his throat. He was a little overwhelmed and thought to himself:
If she dared to call Rong Rouxue, would he dare to answer? He hesitated for a moment, but finally shook his head and said quickly, "I don't deserve it! I don't deserve it!"
There was a hint of panic in his voice, as if he was afraid that his response would cause Yourong Rouxue's dissatisfaction.
Then, Xiao Ding introduced his uncle Xiao Li to Xiao Ning one by one with a smile on his face. Xiao Li had the aura of a big boss, and his expression was steady, revealing the aura of a patriarch.
Then, Xiao Ding pointed to his eldest aunt Xiao Qingxi, who had a graceful figure and pretty face, and exuded elegance in her every move.
Then there is the second aunt Xiao Min, who has a cheerful personality, a bright smile, and gives people a sense of intimacy.
Xiao Ning saluted them in turn, behaving properly and showing good upbringing.
Then, there were introductions among peers. Xiao Ning's three cousins, Xiao Meifang, Xiao Donglian, and Li Rongyi, stood in front of him one by one.
Xiao Meifang was wearing a light pink dress, and her figure was graceful, just like her name, like a plum blossom in full bloom. Her eyes revealed a hint of tenderness and shyness.
Xiao Donglian was wearing a blue dress, looking fresh and refined, like a snow lotus in winter. Her smile was a bit playful.
Li Rongyi was wearing a light yellow dress, with an elegant temperament, like a delicate hibiscus. Her eyes were full of curiosity and appreciation.
The three girls were two or three years older than Xiao Ning. Xiao Ning bowed politely and said:
"Xiao Ning has met Sister Meifang, Sister Donglian, and Sister Rongyi."
When the three girls saw Xiao Ning's face that looked like a fallen immortal, they all blushed with shyness. They couldn't help but look at him a few more times, and their eyes seemed to melt him, almost like they were drawing silk.
Xiao Ning felt their fiery gazes and felt panic in his heart. He looked at the infatuated expressions of his three cousins and his head became bigger. This damn charm, even his own family members were not spared? He secretly complained.
He turned around hastily and stopped looking at the three girls, fearing that they would fall into a deeper obsession because of his appearance. He took a deep breath, trying to calm his inner anxiety and admonishing himself to stay calm.
After introducing everyone, Xiao Changfeng motioned for everyone to take a seat, and then his eyes fell on Xiao Li, with an unspeakable hardship hidden in his eyes. Xiao Ding was keenly aware of this, and he looked at his father and eldest brother, feeling a little uneasy.
"Father, is there something wrong with my brother?" Xiao Ding's voice was filled with a hint of confusion and concern.
Xiao Changfeng looked at him, his lips moved slightly, but he didn't say anything in the end. Silence filled the air, making people feel a little depressed.
Xiao Li took a deep breath and sighed, "Ding'er, I'm very sorry. There was something we did on our own initiative without informing you."
When Xiao Ding heard this, his face instantly darkened. He clenched his fists tightly, his fingers turning slightly white from exerting force, trying to control his emotions. He stared at Xiao Li with wide eyes, waiting for him to continue.
Xiao Li spoke slowly, his voice was very soft, as if he was trying to speak to himself:
"We have arranged a marriage for Ning'er."
