In the quiet room, although the voice of the head of the Yan family was not loud, it was clearly heard by the three people below.

Su Yao raised his head, but he looked at Yan Juntao from the corner of his eye.

Yan Juntao looked puzzled, and asked, "Patriarch, what is so similar?"

Su Yao came back to his senses and carefully observed the head of the Yan family.

The corners of the slightly drooping eyes were slightly raised at this time, and there was light in the eyes.

"An old friend I know", he smiled, and asked about the situation of Yan Shoucheng's family: "Yan Shoucheng, where is your family from? How did you find our Yan family?"

The Yan family is a hermit family, and everyone who knows about it has some background.

The words of the head of the Yan family obviously doubted the origins of Su Yao and Yan Shoucheng.

Yan Shoucheng replied calmly: "I am from Xiahe Village, Sheng County, Longcheng. By chance, I met an old man named Ou. After my son had an accident, he recommended us to see a doctor. Doctor Jiang The whereabouts are what he told us."

It was Lao Ou who agreed to reveal Lao Ou's information. First, with Lao Ou as an intermediary, Yan Shoucheng and Su Yao could gain the trust of the Yan family.Secondly, although Lao Ou no longer gets involved in the affairs of the four major families, he knows a lot of the secrets of the four major families, so he will naturally treat Su Yao and Yan Shoucheng preferentially.

"Old Ou?"

The head of the Yan family frowned slightly: "Since it was introduced by Lao Ou, he is our guest of honor. I have not been free for the past two days because of family affairs, and I have not met you two. I have wronged you."

As soon as the guest spoke, Su Yao saw Yan Juntao next to him with a puzzled look on his face.

Turning to look at Su Yao and Yan Shoucheng, they met Su Yao's gaze.

It seemed that he didn't know who Old Ou was.

Su Yao twitched the corners of his mouth, bowed his head and remained silent.

With just this one sentence, the Patriarch of the Yan family no longer mentioned about Lao Ou, but asked, "Sheng County? Are you from Sheng County?"

Yan Shoucheng replied: "Yes, it's just a small place. Could it be that the head of the Yan family knows Sheng County?"

There was a burst of laughter, and the Patriarch of the Yan family stroked his beard and said, "Not only do I know, I have been there and lived there for two years."

The voice fell, and there was another silence.

After a while, the head of the Yan family's voice was tinged with sadness: "The old person I know is from Sheng County. We met in Sheng County, and we made an agreement that when the war is over and the country is at peace, she wants to travel across the country. , Look at the mountains and rivers of the motherland. It's a pity that after saying goodbye to my old friend, I haven't seen her for more than 30 years, and I don't know how she is?"

Seeing the Patriarch who finished speaking, Su Yao stared blankly into the distance, his eyes seemed to be unfocused, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and he seemed to be in a good mood.

After being dazed for a long time, the head of the Yan family woke up: "How is your family? Is your mother okay?"

Listening to this question, Su Yao felt a little weird.

Yan Shoucheng didn't have any doubts, and replied: "My biological mother died of dystocia after giving birth to me. I was adopted by a farmer and my adoptive parents are fine for now."

The matter of Yan Shoucheng's biological mother was investigated after Yan Shoucheng knew that she was not Yan Fusheng's child.

Regarding the death of his mother, Yan Shoucheng still feels a little guilty. To a certain extent, his own birth caused his mother's death. Without him, maybe that woman lived a happy life.

But the deceased is gone, no amount of guilt is useless, Yan Shoucheng built a tomb for the woman, never believed in ghosts and gods, and he hoped that this method could make her live better there.

And after this kind of guilt, Yan Shoucheng still had a bit of resentment towards the father who didn't care about giving birth or raising him.

Meet and don't know each other.

Yan Shoucheng took a deep breath, recalling the information he had read from Lao Ou.

The Patriarch of the Yan family is the only descendant of the direct line of the family. Because of the family's civil strife, he was forced to return home, marry a wife and have children, and inherit the position of Patriarch.

In name, he relied on the Yan family's family business, but his life was not easy at all.

When he took over the family, the Yan family was already on the decline, hanging at the bottom of the list of the four major families.In order to preserve the glory of his family, he sacrificed a lot, his feelings, his dreams, he was put into the cage of his family, and lived freely and bound.

The Yan family went downhill because there were no potential children in the family, and it was incomparable with the other three major families. Even some small families were eager to try, wanting to challenge the Yan family and replace the Yan family.

However, although the qualifications of the Yan family's children are not good, they have more intentions than one. Originally, they just wanted to win a place in the Yan family. After the death of the head of the Yan family, the competition for the position of the head of the Yan family began.

Inside, there are intrigues for status, and outside, there are other family ambitions to eat away.

Coupled with the loss of children in old age.

The Patriarch of the Yan family, who should have looked younger, looked a little old.

Bowing his head silently, Yan Shoucheng covered the cold light in his eyes.

The atmosphere was a little awkward for a while.

Su Yao broke the awkward atmosphere: "Patriarch Yan, my son fainted due to illness and has been delayed for a long time. Please be tolerant and allow us to borrow the jade bed."

Bring the topic back up.

The head of the Yan family's eyes fell on Su Yao.

After all, it was an old fox for many years. His gaze was a bit oppressive. Su Yao settled his mind and straightened his back: "As the saying goes, the sickness lies in the son's body, and the pain lies in the mother's heart. As long as you promise to let us use the jade bed to save my son, I can do anything."

Su Yao spoke earnestly, and Yan Shoucheng echoed at the right time: "I, Yan Shoucheng, don't have much ability. As long as my son can recover and I can be used in the future, the Yan family can just mention it."

A pair of parents who would sacrifice everything for their children made the Yan family take the initiative to accommodate them.

"If my son is alive, he should be as old as you. It's a pity that God is jealous of Yingcai, and he left when he was only thirty."

Speaking of this, the Patriarch of the Yan family was extremely depressed.

A slightly vicissitudes of voice sounded: "I am also a father, and I have also seen the child suffering from illness, but there is nothing I can do. I understand your feelings. This jade bed is just for you to use."

Yan Juntao said that the jade bed was very precious, but now he agreed with it with just one sentence.

Su Yao really wanted to be happy, but her intuition made her a little uneasy, and she always felt that something bad would happen later.

Yan Shoucheng reacted a little faster than Su Yao, and brought Su Yao back to his senses, and bowed to thank him: "Thank you, Patriarch Yan, for your generous help."

"It's just a little effort."

"Where do they live now?"

The Patriarch of the Yan family asked Yan Juntao.

After knowing that the two lived in the outer guest courtyard, they looked a little worried: "The person introduced by Lao Ou, how can he live in the outer courtyard. The jade bed is now placed in the Qiugong Garden, why don't you go directly to that courtyard to host?" , it’s more convenient to use a jade bed.”
