Chapter 410 Is it so crazy?
Although before inviting Duan Rao, Xi Jingyue had already prepared himself for the possibility that among his relatives, young and old, one or two passers-by, cannon fodder, supporting characters, or even protagonists who were forced to work in some unknown text might appear at any time.
But he never expected that this moment would come so early, and the first NPC that appeared was not Xi Yanjia, but her own brother!
"You said his name was..."
"Xi Yanqi."
"Which two words?"
"A grand banquet for all the ministers, Ding Erqi."
[Fuck, it’s really him! ]
The reason why Du Anrao was so impressed by this name was that the character "邒" in the name Xi Yan邒 was not common. Few people would use such an uncommon ancient place name to name their children.
But that's not the point, the point is...
"His name is Xi Yanqi, and his sister..."
"Xi Yanjia, the Yan of Hongyan, the Jia of Jijia."
As soon as Xi Jingyue said this, the light in Duanrao's eyes completely went out.
[Sure enough, I should have thought of it earlier. The surname Xi sounds quite impressive, how could no one take a fancy to it and write a few books about it.]
Xi Jingyue: “…” For a moment, he didn’t know whether to cry or laugh.
Regarding Xi Yanjia’s siblings, or to be more precise, what is related to Xi Yanjia is a modern house fighting novel with the label of a heroine as the main character.
The reason why it is classified as a domestic intrigue novel is that the main battlefield of the entire article is in the Xi family from beginning to end and has never left.
The reason why I deliberately emphasize that this article is labeled as a heroine is that from the very beginning, the author of this article gave Xi Yanjia the title of a heroine. However, when Duanrao read the whole book, she found that she could not see any trace of a heroine in this book.
The whole article is said to be about a family feud, but it is more like Xi Yanjia's personal love history. Today, she is trying to snatch a property left by the main branch from a relative but fails. Then, at dawn, a business tycoon will appear to help her.
Tomorrow, she will set her eyes on a certain property left by the main branch, and then a rich young man will appear and fall in love with her at first sight. He will actively pursue her and give her what she wants.
The day after tomorrow, a relative of hers would plot a plot against her in order to seize the property that her family was about to acquire. Then, an outlaw who was interested in her would appear and help her nip the danger in the bud...
In short, when it comes to house fighting, others rely on their brains to come up with a lot of ideas to cheat and rob, but she is different. She only needs to sit back and put on a face of being a high-class flower, waiting for her suitors to pay her tribute on a daily basis, and then she can reap the kingdom they have built for her.
Everyone: “…” Is it so crazy?
Xi Jingyue couldn't help but glance sideways at this cousin whom he had never really taken seriously. He never expected that this person could be so charming. What on earth did those people see in her?
Or does it all depend on what An An mentioned before, the halo of the heroine?
[The real heroine: I have built my own business empire with my own strength. Love is only a small part of my life, but not all of it. I can help you expand your territory and make progress together. I can also accompany you hand in hand and make progress together. If you dare to use love to hold me back and affect my career, I will be the first to kill you!
Fake heroine: She covets other people's property and relies on a group of men to fight and rob. At first glance, it seems that she is just in love. It seems that except using a bunch of men who are good enough in the author's opinion to pursue the heroine obsessively, there is no other way to show the charm of the heroine.
With the help of these people, the heroine won the final victory. In the end, she pretended to be noble and said that she regarded money as dirt. These things were given to her by others. In order not to hurt their feelings, she could only accept them reluctantly. At this moment, if a few more audience members outside the venue praised "It's so sweet, it's killing me." It would be a masterpiece. It's so classic. 】
Everyone: "..." What the hell is this? Are all the young people nowadays into this?
Young people are harmed by their daily reputation...
[It's still not right. There are many men who have been involved with Xi Yanjia, but Jiang Yiming is definitely not one of them. What went wrong? ]
Du Anrao is still wondering why Jiang Yiming got involved with Xi Yanjia and became nominal boyfriend and girlfriend.
But the facts are right in front of us, and there is no point in worrying about it. We might as well take advantage of this time to read more books and find out the internal situation of the Xi family.
Although the book was filled with water in the middle and late stages and had a bad ending, completely deviating from the theme and original intention and being written in a mess, Duanrao still had to admit that the beginning of the book was indeed well written.
The plot begins with a grand funeral. Young Master Miao, the only descendant of the Xi family's main branch for three generations, unfortunately passed away due to illness. Upon receiving the news, the Xi family's relatives and friends, men, women, old and young, all put down their work and chores and gathered at the Xi family's ancestral home to attend this unique funeral.
These relatives who rushed back from all over the country and even the world, discovered that the ancestral house was not only decorated with white banners, wreaths and elegiac couplets, but also with many big red silk flowers, big red wedding characters that were only used at weddings, and even a pair of dragon and phoenix candles placed next to the white candles.
White and red, two extremely plain yet extremely strong colors mixed together, create a huge visual impact, giving people the illusion of entering a spooky scene.
Xi Yanjia's family was also among the returning relatives. They were shocked to see this scene. After learning more about it, they found out that the grandparents of this only child in the main branch had heard a rumor from somewhere that the man was a virgin until his death. Not only would he be lonely and helpless in the underworld, but he would also most likely not be able to find a wife in his next life. He would be alone all his life and his old age would be miserable.
The two elderly people who were about to send off their precious grandson were so frightened that they said they would never let their precious grandson rest in peace after his death or even in his next life.
Seeing that the time was ripe, the deceiving dog master asked the two desperate elderly people for a huge sum of money and made a proposal that sounded ridiculous.
Let the Xi family find a deceased woman whose horoscope matches that of his grandson to form a ghost marriage. This way, both of them will have a companion in the underworld, and they can continue their fate in the next life, thus achieving a heaven-sent marriage.
Everyone: “…” This is so crazy, is this a plot that a normal person could come up with?
The plot is a bit confusing, but no matter how you put it, with this opening, the absurdity and horror of the entire funeral, coupled with the ulterior motives of the relatives who came and went, the atmosphere was instantly full.
Many readers were attracted by the bizarre beginning and thought they would see a thrilling family feud, but they did not expect to step into the abyss.
It is known that Xi Yanjia's surname is Xi, she is a member of the Xi family, and she is also a relative of Xi Jingyue. Her ancestral home is naturally Xi Jingyue's ancestral home.
Du Anrao turned around and asked Xi Jingyue without thinking: "Mr. Xi, do you know where your ancestral home is?"
"here."
