Chapter 378
"Father, don't get angry, can't you just talk about it? The second brother finally came back, why is there such an unpleasant scene?"

"Since I am the eldest son in the family, I should take on the responsibilities that I should bear. Father, please don't embarrass the second brother. He can do whatever he wants! I'm the one to support our Xiao family. Or, father thinks that the son Not capable enough?"

"Second brother, look at how angry you are with our father, hurry up and make amends!"

Standing outside and listening to Xiao Che's troubles, Ling Lan felt tired.

Thinking about Mr. Xiao being sandwiched between his father and younger brother, he not only had to take care of both ends, but also took pains to mend the relationship between the two—Ling Lan couldn't help but feel sorry for him for once.

Ling Lan is not the kind of person who likes to pry into the privacy of other families, she heard about this "lawsuit" of Xiao's family, it was purely unintentional.

The so-called upright official can't solve housework, Ling Lan didn't want to go into the muddy water of Xiao's house, so she turned around and wanted to leave.

At this time, the old man of the Xiao family was full of angry shouts and curses sounded behind him again.

"You unworthy son! How many people can't ask for the talent of a summoner, and you are wasting it for nothing!"

Even though the old man of the Xiao family was extremely angry, Ling Lan still felt a bit of regret from the reprimand, and even more hated iron for being weak.

Feeling something in Ling Lan's heart, her footsteps paused - as expected, most of the parents in the world hoped that their children would become successful.Obviously, the old man of the Xiao family was not exempt.

It's just that the second master of the Xiao family who was reprimanded by the old man of the Xiao family, the more Ling Lan listened to it, the more he felt like a person!
An unconventional and unruly image was about to emerge, Ling Lan was about to think about it carefully, when a bird landed on her shoulder by surprise.

Before Ling Lan had time to see the bird's appearance clearly, she heard a piercing and loud voice ringing in her ears.

"Old stubborn! Don't meddle in young people's affairs!"

"Gah! The old man of the Xiao family is an old antique! An old antique! An unreasonable old antique!"

This broken gong-like cry startled Ling Lan, and she wanted to pinch the beak of the beak, but it was too late.

It was only at this time that Ling Lan could see clearly the appearance of this bad bird - a tuft of red hair on its head, a long and sharp beak, isn't it Xiao Jue's pet? !
So the person inside who was reprimanded by the old man of the Xiao family but kept silent was her mentor Xiao Jue? !
Xiao Jue is actually from a first-class country!Not only that, he is also the second master of the Xiao family!So why did Xiao Jue go to the seventh-class small country to be a mentor?
Is it because life is too dull?

——The amount of information was a bit large, and Ling Lan suddenly felt a little incapable of accepting it.

The red-capped long-billed bird was still chattering non-stop on Ling Lan's shoulder, calling "Old Stubborn" and "Old Antique" cursingly.As soon as I heard it, I knew it was aimed at the old man of the Xiao family.

If possible, Ling Lan would really like to find a strong rope to tie the bird's sharp beak firmly so that it can no longer make any noise.

But the people in the room had obviously heard the screeching of the red-capped long-billed bird, and it was impossible for Ling Lan to pretend to be okay and slip away quietly at this moment.

She had no choice but to bite the bullet and go in.

Ling Lan looked at it without showing any trace, and saw that the atmosphere in the hall was still a little stiff.The white-haired old man sitting at the top is probably the old man of the Xiao family.

His face was still angry, and he stared dissatisfiedly.Xiao Che and Xiao Jue stood on the ground.

"Father, this is Miss Ling I mentioned to you earlier."

After Xiao Che introduced him, Ling Lan respectfully bowed to the old man of the Xiao family.

The old man of the Xiao family was still full of anger for a moment, but after hearing the word "Miss Ling", his wrinkled face smiled like a chrysanthemum.

Xiao Jue, who had been listening to his father with his head down, also raised his head.When he saw clearly that the person standing in the hall was Ling Lan, he couldn't help showing a trace of surprise on his face.

But the surprise was fleeting, and Xiao Jue's expression soon returned to normal.

It was the face-changing magic skill of the old man of the Xiao family that gave Ling Lan a lot of insight.

The old man who was like a storm one second, became amiable and amiable in the next second.

I don't know what misleading words Xiao Che said to Mr. Xiao. Mr. Xiao looked at Ling Lan with a smile, as if looking at his future granddaughter-in-law.

Ling Lan was so embarrassed by the old man's satisfied gaze that she had no choice but to take the initiative to break this weird situation.

She bowed to Xiao Jue again, and greeted, "Mr. Xiao, long time no see."

"Mr. Xiao, long time no see!" The red-capped long-billed bird flapped its wings while imitating its tongue, and landed on Xiao Jue's shoulder.

The loud voice of the red-capped long-billed bird successfully attracted the attention of Xiao Che and Mr. Xiao.

The two of them looked at Ling Lan and Xiao Jue, not knowing what happened for a while.

After a while, Xiao Che finally realized.He wondered: "You guys know each other?"

Ling Lan nodded and said: "Thanks to Teacher Xiao's guidance, Ling Lan avoided a lot of detours."

Xiao Jue gestured with a smile, and said lightly, "I said a long time ago that we will meet again soon."

Xiao Jue had already seen that Ling Lan was not someone to wait for nothing.She is like a young eagle, when her wings are full, she will naturally soar into the sky.

How can a small country like the seventh rank be able to trap Ling Lan.She is destined to go high.

What Xiao Jue didn't expect was that the reunion in his "prophecy" would come so soon.

It can only be said that Ling Lan's progress is too fast, which has exceeded his imagination.

However, Xiao Che and the old man of the Xiao family were still in surprise, unable to recover for a long time.

What Mr. Xiao thought was that Ling Lan would actually know the second master of the Xiao family, which shows that she has a deep relationship with the Xiao family.

But Xiao Che recovered from his astonishment, but remembered another thing.

He once heard Xiao Jue say that the seventh-class countries are not as miserable as they imagined.In the seventh-class countries, there are also people with outstanding talents.

At that time Xiao Jue said that a seventh-class small country is not necessarily worse than a first-class big country.Among the students he teaches, there is one who is extremely talented and has unlimited potential...

Xiao Che and Mr. Xiao heard this, but they didn't believe it. They only thought that Xiao Jue deliberately lied to fool them in order to be able to stay in the seventh-class country to teach.

But now, seeing Ling Lan respectfully address Xiao Jue as a "mentor", Xiao Che and the old man of the Xiao family seemed to be enlightened all of a sudden, and they all understood.

——It turned out that the student from the seventh-class small country that Xiao Jue praised was Ling Lan!

This is really no coincidence!
Mr. Xiao was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear.In his opinion, this is the embodiment of the deep fate between Ling Lan and the Xiao family.

And Xiao Che obviously wanted to go with Mr. Xiao.The father and son looked at each other tacitly, and both understood what was in each other's mind.

——Having Xiao Jue as a lobbyist is simply wonderful!
