The son-in-law of the first wealthy family

Even though Shangguan Mingchen came out with his two sons today, when everyone greeted him, except for the Xiao family, they basically ignored Shangguan Jin intentionally or unintentionally.

Now he was in front of Xiao Xuanren, but turned around directly, Xiao Xuanren ignored Shangguan Xin, as if Shangguan Xin was not there.

Especially the meaning of Xiao Xuanren's words seems to be saying that he is more optimistic about Shangguan Jin.

If it was in the past, Shangguan Xin would not have cared about it, but now Xiao Xuanren has become Xia Houxiong's apprentice, so the weight of saying such words will be different.

Especially now that the Xiahou family is stronger than the Shangguan family, if the Shangguan family supports Shangguan Jin, Shangguan Xin's position will be in jeopardy.

After all, many people in the Shangguan family are not very optimistic about Shangguan Xin. Shangguan Xin knows this very well. Otherwise, he would not have to trouble Shangguan Jin again and again. He just wanted to make Shangguan Jin make mistakes and be kicked out of the Shangguan family. .

As soon as Shangguan Xin's expression changed, he wanted to say something, and Shangguan Mingchen spoke first.

"That's really thanks to little nephew Xiao for helping my son speak."

Shangguan Mingchen said this with a smile, but it always gave people a feeling that something was wrong, but there was nothing wrong with it.

Shangguan Xin heard that his father seemed to be speaking for him, so he didn't say anything, and looked at Shangguan Jin with a little complacency.

Shangguan Jin's expression didn't change much, he still had that gentle look, just nodded slightly to Xiao Xuanren, then bent down to salute Xia Houxiong, and said politely: "Congratulations to Patriarch Xiahou for receiving a satisfied apprentice .”

Looking at Shangguan Jin's appearance, Xia Houxiong couldn't help but nodded slightly.

In fact, before today, Xia Houxiong hadn't paid attention to Shangguan Jin at all, and didn't even know that Shangguan Mingchen's other son was called Shangguan Jin.

Many people knew that Shangguan Mingchen had two sons, but most of them only knew that his youngest son was called Shangguan Xin, but they didn't know the name of his eldest son.

Shangguan Mingchen showed up with Shangguan brocade today, and many people, like Xia Houxiong, saw Shangguan brocade for the first time. What I have to say is that with Shangguan Xin as a foil, Shangguan brocade made these people even more optimistic.

No matter in terms of appearance, form, or demeanor, this Shangguan Jin was superior to Shangguan Xin. Although the cultivation base of the two looked similar, Shangguan Jin gave people a more down-to-earth feeling, not as impetuous as Shangguan Xin.

But no matter what they think, this is the family background of the Shangguan family, and the Shangguan family's choice of an idiot as the heir will only benefit them, so even if these people have a good impression of Shangguan Jin, they will not show it.

After seeing each other, Shangguan Mingchen led the two of them to the side, not intending to let them stand here any longer.

Shangguan Mingchen felt a little uncomfortable when he came to the Xiahou family's banquet this time. Although it was said that their family rejected the Xiao family's support first, the Xiahou family could not accept the Xiao family with such a big fanfare.

This is like saying that the Shangguan family has no vision and gave them a slap in the face.

It's just that Shangguan's family is not as good as Xiahou's now, even if they are angry, they can't show it, but the matter of bringing Shangguan Jin out is not entirely due to the pressure of those people.

After the father and son of the Shangguan family walked away, Xia Houxiong stared at Shangguan Jin's back for a while, then whispered to Xiao Xuanren, "Who is this Shangguan Jin's master?"

Xiao Xuanren was slightly taken aback, glanced at Xia Houxiong, and replied in a low voice: "Shangguan Jin has never been a teacher, and what he practiced was Shangguan's original mental method, and in his situation, It is impossible for him to have a master."

Hearing Xiao Xuanren's words, Xia Houxiong just smiled, and directly changed the subject: "This kid is not bad, you can get in touch with him more in the future."

Xiao Xuanren nodded slightly, but he was a little puzzled in his heart. He had always suspected the reason why Xia Houxiong suddenly wanted to accept him as an apprentice, but since he said this thing that day, Xia Houxiong had left him at Xiahou's house.

In the past few days, Xia Houxiong basically took Xiao Xuanren to meet the members of the Xiahou family, and told everyone that Xiao Xuanren was his only disciple, so that the Xiahou family could not neglect them.

In private, Xia Houxiong would also give advice on Xiao Xuanren's practice, but Xiao Xuanren's current practice path is basically fixed, and it is impossible to change, so he can only give pointers.

Xia Houxiong is also a master at the master level, so it is naturally possible to give Xiao Xuanren some pointers.

Judging from Xia Houxiong's words and deeds, he really regarded Xiao Xuanren as a disciple, which made Xiao Xuanren not sure what was going on for a while.

But today's banquet was originally intended for him to learn from his teacher, so that he could tell the world, so Xia Houxiong probably wanted to find an apprentice, not to do anything.

Xiao Xuanren was a little more relieved towards Xia Houxiong, but he was still vaguely uneasy in his heart.

But after he became Xia Houxiong's apprentice, he seemed to be able to help Shangguan Jin change his situation.

Xiao Xuanren is the only son of the Patriarch of the Xiao Family and the only heir of the Xiao Family. From childhood to adulthood, he only needs to practice hard, and he doesn't have to worry about any messy things at all, and someone will help him deal with them.

A proud man like him would never know Shangguan Jin. Even though Shangguan Jin is the eldest son of Shangguan Mingchen, his status is not as good as Xiao Xuanren's.

Xiao Xuanren still remembered that when he was ten years old, the head of the Xiao family took him to Shangguan Mingchen's birthday banquet. It was at this birthday banquet that Xiao Xuanren saw the arrogant Shangguan Xin.

For a long time, Xiao Xuanren thought that he was already arrogant enough, but he didn't expect someone to be even more arrogant. At that time, he just accidentally bumped into Shangguan Xin in the backyard, and Shangguan Xin was caught by someone and wanted to beat him. Break his leg as punishment.

Even if he revealed his identity, it was useless, he always remembered what Shangguan Xin said.

"So what if you are Xiao Xuanren? You are still nothing in front of me, Shangguan Xin. Even if I broke your leg, your father would not dare to say anything."

That was the first time Xiao Xuanren realized that the Xiao family was not as powerful as he imagined. Fortunately, the head of the Xiao family showed up in time with Shangguan Mingchen, so his leg was not broken.

Later, the Patriarch of the Xiao family told him that it was a child named Shangguan Jin who came to report the news. Only then did he know, and dragged Shangguan Mingchen to rush over in time.

Xiao Xuanren remembered Shangguan Jin's name, but he didn't know who it was, but also because of this experience, he worked hard during his practice, and finally became a dazzling existence.

Even if his Xiao family is still not as good as Shangguan's, but when he goes to Shangguan's again, Shangguan Xin dare not do anything to him.
