I have to say that smart people also have high emotional intelligence.

When Shen Mingxi looked up, he saw Feng Anchen standing nearby.

Because it was winter, there was no way to bury the electric poles or pull the wires, so the Shen family was destined to have no electricity this winter. Fortunately, conditions were better now and they could afford candles and kerosene lamps, so a candle was lit in the kitchen.

The young man's handsome features seemed to take on a different kind of charm under the dim yellow candlelight.

Shen Mingxi couldn't help but think of a saying: Look at the beauty under the lamp.

Oh my god, what does this have to do with anything?

Shen Mingxi quickly stopped thinking, thought about it, but still pretended to ask casually, "Brother Anchen, I heard from my great grandfather that two of the four major families in Beijing now have double surnames, one of which is Dongfang. What do you think of the Dongfang family?"

In fact, for Shen Mingxi, talking about the so-called four major families and eight minor families gives him a feeling of reading an ancient Chinese novel, which does not seem very realistic.

After all, she has never lived in this circle, let alone had any contact with it.

But the fact is that such families do exist.

China is a country with a very rich historical heritage and it also values ​​the power of family. Not to mention the capital, even in this small Kaoshan Village, the family of Captain Shen Sanye has a family tree.

Her father and his family are all on the family tree.

In the beginning, girls would not be recorded on it, but starting from Mr. Shen Sanye, girls were also recorded on it.

But now Mr. Shen San has marked their family separately.

After all, they are members of the Shen family of Yuncheng, and have nothing to do with their lineage. Shen Yu's family will be included in the family tree of Shen Junsheng's clan.

Feng Anchen didn't expect that Shen Mingxi would ask him this.

After being stunned for a moment, he quickly replied, "Among the four major families, the Dongfang family ranks last, but I think they are all about the same. There are quite a lot of Dongfang family members. They don't just live in the capital, they also have people in other cities, but it is said that the direct lineage all lives in the capital."

Shen Mingxi thought about it. There was nothing wrong with what Feng Anchen said, but it was not what she wanted to know. She wanted to know if there was someone named Dongfang Yao in the Dongfang family, or if he lived in another city.

But then he thought, how could Feng Anchen know all this, and what reason did he have to ask?

I feel a little discouraged. I can only take it one step at a time.

Feng Anchen observed Shen Mingxi's expression and knew that his answer was not what Shen Mingxi wanted to know.

His handsome eyebrows moved, and he whispered, "Xiaoxi, did your great grandfather tell you about the Dongfang family? What do you want to know? You can ask me. If I don't know, I will go back and ask you, and then I will write to you or call you to tell you."

Although this is a good idea, Shen Mingxi can't use it.

Because she couldn't be sure whether Dongfang Yao was a man or a woman, old or young, and it was not known whether she was a member of the Dongfang family.

Naturally, she had no way of explaining how she knew the name. It would be bad if the other party was a young man in his twenties, or it would be embarrassing if the other party was an old man in his sixties or seventies.

Feng Anchen curled his lips and stopped asking. Instead, he continued with Shen Mingxi's question and said, "Yes, that's why the people in their clan think highly of themselves and don't look down on others."

Shen Mingxi suddenly remembered the reason why Feng Anchen came here. He had beaten someone from the Ouyang family and had him hospitalized.

Although the man brought it upon himself, Feng Anchen was too cruel.

Now looking at the young man with delicate features under the light, Shen Mingxi suddenly realized that he seemed to have grown a lot in less than a year.

I believe that this time when he goes back, he won’t cause trouble again.

After searching carefully in his mind, although he knew it was the fault of the Ouyang family, that person still held a grudge. Although he did not dare to do anything to Feng Anchen openly, Feng Anchen still suffered a loss. Although he was retaliated against badly later, the plot has now changed beyond recognition.

She didn't want Feng Anchen to get hurt in any way. This had nothing to do with love, it was just what she thought deep down.

Shen Mingxi smiled, "Brother Anchen, I heard that your grandfather sent you to Kaoshantun for training because you had a fight with the Ouyang family..."

Feng Anchen was stunned for a moment, his thin lips tightly pursed, but a hint of red appeared on his face. Of course, this was not guilt, but embarrassment.

He didn't want Shen Mingxi to know about this. Even Jiawen and Qingshan didn't know about it, so how did Xiaoxi know about it? It must have been Li Qing, that big mouth, who told him.

But I can't say harsh words to Xiaoxi's face. I will teach him a lesson when he gets back.

Her eyes flickered, but she didn't avoid the topic. Her tone was naturally cold and disdainful, and her eyes became chilly. "That's because he deserved to be beaten. He is the younger brother of Brother Ouyang Xu, one year older than me. He is full of evil intentions and tricks. There is nothing he can't do in this world. If it weren't for the support of the Ouyang family, he would have died hundreds of times. Otherwise, I beat him into the hospital, so why didn't anyone in the Ouyang family dare to hold me responsible?"

At the end, Feng Anchen's tone was a little proud.

"Brother Anchen, since this man is so bad, you should be careful when you go back. There is a saying that it is easy to dodge a gun but hard to guard against an arrow. Even if his family knows that he has brought this upon himself, he himself will not think so. He must be holding a grudge against you. You have not been back since you came to Kaoshantun, and you must not have stayed for a few days this time. But you will be in the capital after you set off tomorrow. You should be careful. Some people are born evil, and conflicts will never be resolved."

Feng Anchen looked indifferent at first, but as he listened, his expression became thoughtful.

Ouyang Peng is the most narrow-minded person. Although he is not afraid of him, what Xiaoxi said makes sense.

And Xiaoxi was also thinking about him. It seemed that she had been holding these words in her heart for a long time, and only said them now that she saw that he was about to leave. This little girl has a lot on her mind.

Feng Anchen felt sweet in his heart.

There was a smile on his face and his eyes looked at Shen Mingxi with a hint of tenderness.

It's just that Shen Mingxi was talking to him while working, so he didn't notice it, but he also felt that the atmosphere at this moment was a little particularly strange.

"I understand what you said, and I agree with your point of view. Ouyang Peng is the same kind of person as Zhao Yahe. He is born with evil intentions and never repents."
