Chapter 185 Visiting the Nanxuan Family (6)
The figure of a woman suddenly appeared on the crystal ball. She was wearing a snow-white dress, with long hair hanging down to her waist. Her face was a little blurry. Xiao Shiyu recognized it as the Saint Mo Yan at first sight.
"Saint...Saint, the Nanxuan family pays homage to the Saint!" Nan Xuanzhan led the whole family, young and old, to kneel and kowtow. Nan Xuanwei was startled and hurriedly stuffed the crystal ball into the hands of her second senior brother beside her, and the woman inside immediately disappeared.
"How could this happen?" The people in Nan Xuan's family were a little confused. Wen Yingchang looked at Nan Xuanwei with a probing look, and Xiao Shiyu had tears in his eyes.
"Xiao Shiyu, it's time for us to go back and talk about business." Zhao Jingzhou reminded him.
"Old Master Nan Xuan, I'm here today not only to pick up the little girl, but also to give you an invitation. Weiwei and I are getting engaged next month, and I would like to invite you and my uncle to attend our engagement party." After saying that, he took out two invitations, handed one to Nan Xuanzhan with both hands, and the other to Nan Yi.
Wen Ying and his son looked very unhappy: "Master Nanxuan, you promised to give the little fairy to my son. It's not good for you to go back on your word like this!"
"Mr. Xiao, what do you mean? You want to get engaged without even asking for our opinion. We don't recognize this marriage. Weiwei will not go back with you. She will stay at Nanxuan's house and get engaged to the young master of Wenying's family tomorrow. This is a tradition among our hidden families."
"May I ask if your Nanxuan family has ever raised Xiaowu for a day? You lost the child and haven't looked for her for all these years. What qualifications do you have to arrange her life? My Xiaowu is not suitable for Mr. Wen Ying. She will become unhappy if she marries him. On behalf of Master and our sect, we oppose this marriage!" Lin Mufei was very determined.
"You two must be Weiwei's senior brothers, right? Our family didn't know about Weiwei's existence before. If we had known, we would definitely not have let her wander around outside." Nan Xuanzhan said.
"I'm glad I got lost now. If I grew up in the Nanxuan family, I would probably be like my mom, obeying your orders and not being able to make my own decisions on anything!"
"Shouldn't it be possible?" Nan Xuanqi asked back with confidence.
"Of course not. According to the tradition of the Nanxuan family, when my mother turns 18, she should inherit the position of head of the family if the previous female head of the family is no longer around. As the head of the family, she can make decisions on everything and won't be so passive."
Everyone understands the rules of the Nan Xuan family, but they were broken in Nan Xuanqi's generation. The most talented Nan Xuanyue is still missing. Nan Xuanqi has been holding on to the position of head of the family and now wants to control Nan Xuanwei. It seems that the temporary head of the family has been in the position for too long and has forgotten where his correct position is.
Seeing that no one in the Nanxuan family said anything, Nanxuanwei twitched the corner of her mouth in self-mockery: "Now that I am twenty years old, I am also qualified to inherit the position of the head of the Nanxuan family. When is my uncle going to give up the throne?"
This sentence was like a depth charge, shocking everyone in Nan Xuan's family. They didn't expect Nan Xuanwei to have such thoughts.
Xiao Shiyu, Zhao Jingzhou and others sat there watching the show. Nan Xuan's family simply refused to accept the toast. If they had treated Nan Xuanwei well, things would never have come to this point.
"There are still things to do in the family, so my son and I will go back first. Since Mr. Xiao hasn't proposed, why don't we compete fairly with Yu Tu?" Wen Ying Changyue is determined to get Nan Xuanwei, and she must belong to the Wen Ying family.
"Your son is a hooligan. He tried to take advantage of me the first time we met. I will not marry such a man. I am going to get engaged to Xiao Shiyu. If you dare to do anything bad, Xiao Shiyu and I will fight you at your Wenying family. I don't care about those little ghosts and evil spirits you raised. If you dare to make plans against me again, I will send your Wenying family to be buried with those ghosts!"
Xie Qi can deal with those evil spirits with just one move. Not to mention that she now has Xiao Shiyu, a powerful helper, she is not afraid of facing the Wen Ying family.
"I admit that you do have some tricks. It's not easy to break through our Wenying family's evil ghost wall, the Thousand Old Men Formation, and the Blood Mystery Forest, unless you have helpers at the level of spirit beasts or ghost kings."
"Do you want to try now? Let's make it clear first. If I break those harmful formations of yours, you can't let me cover it. I don't like to catch ghosts in the underworld."
"Weiwei, can you enter and leave the underworld freely? Are you familiar with the Black and White Impermanence, or do you know someone in front of the Ten Kings of Hell?" Nan Xuanqi is so shameless that no one can match him. If someone else was chased by his niece for the position of head of the family, he would have to stay away from her. But he just acted as if nothing had happened and started to show his presence at any opportunity.
"I...I know him...why should I tell you!"
Nan Xuanqi's face turned purple, Zhao Jingzhou and Lin Mufei pursed their lips tightly, and Xiao Shiyu laughed heartily. Even his little girl's mischief was so endearing.
If it was only Nan Xuanwei, Wen Ying and his son would really dare to take her back. Once she entered the Wen Ying family, she would never be able to get out again, and she could only work for the Wen Ying family in the future. I believe this is also the result that Nan Xuanqi wants to see. Now that there are three more masters around her, Wen Ying Changyue dare not take any risks.
After confronting Nan Xuanqi and seeing the ugly behavior of Wen Ying's father and son, Nan Xuanwei turned around and said to Nan Xuanzhan: "I only invite grandpa and my uncle to my engagement. No one else in the Nan Xuan family is invited."
"You really don't know your place. Without the Nanxuan family's support, do you think the Xiao family will respect you?" Ling Manyun pointed at Nan Xuanwei and shouted.
"My Zhao family is Xiaowu's backer. I have already written a gift contract. When Xiaowu gets married, half of the family property will be transferred to her name."
"I, Lin Mufei, have no children. Everything I have, except the ancestral home that cannot be moved, will be given to Xiaowu."
Nan Xuan's family and Wen Ying and his son were shocked beyond words. It was the first time they saw someone doting on their junior sister so much. Let alone people who were not related by blood, even towards their own children, there were rarely elders who were so generous!
"My two brothers, when I marry the little girl, I will pay for all her expenses. If you are worried, I will transfer all the property and money to her name when we return."
Another one came. All the women present looked at Nan Xuanwei with envy. Although Ling Manyun and Zhang Ying were the wives of the Nan Xuan family and seemed to have unlimited glory, in fact, only they themselves knew how frustrating their lives were. Their monthly expenses were limited, and had been decreasing year by year in recent years. The jewellery they wore to attend banquets were all borrowed from the family, and they had to write an IOU. Most of the dresses were rented, and if they were accidentally damaged or dirty, they had to pay for it themselves.
The relationship between them and their husbands is average, so it's good enough that they don't ask for money, let alone give them money privately.
People really can't be compared with each other. If they are really compared, I will lose the courage to live.
Nan Xuanfeng stared at Xiao Shiyu infatuatedly, how great it would be if this man was hers!
