I read this article but I still have no idea for it.

Strange. I did the same test with three news servers and
confirmed the Xref header never varies.
news.individual.net (INN?)
Xref: uni-berlin.de gnu.emacs.gnus:81543
news.gnus.org (INN 2.3.2)
Xref: quimby.gnus.org gnu.emacs.gnus:48908
the local server (INN 2.3.5)
Xref: pathhost gnu.emacs.gnus:58643

Even if your servers always return the right article for the command
article <vfbqdnyn4t.fsf@googlemail.com>
, I don't think there is an easy way to do that with Gnus. Isn't
it better to look into the reason why the Xref header varies (and
to fix the problem in the servers side if possible)?
