Chun'er insisted that it was Old Lady Xu who was angry, even though she had done something wrong.

How could the two women present not see through such a little trick? Only Xu Mao, that fool, could see through it.

"Grandma, please calm down. Don't kick Chun'er out. She's all alone and has no one to rely on." As he spoke, Xu Mao glanced at Chun'er and gave her a look.

With Xu Mao's look in her eyes, Chun'er suddenly felt at ease. She knew that as long as she could control Xu Mao, she would be fine.

Grandma Xu and Liu Fang noticed their subtle actions.

Liu Fang said, "Mao'er, Mother knows that you remember Chun'er's kindness in taking care of your health."

“Our Xu family isn’t the kind of people who don’t know how to repay kindness. I think Chun’er is of marriageable age, so I’ll have someone find her a suitable man later.”

“Our Xu family will provide her with a dowry so that she can marry in style and not be left alone.”

Liu Fang's resolve had only grown stronger; she absolutely could not let this woman into her home.

Chun'er's pupils widened in shock. "I won't marry him! I won't marry him!" How could she marry anyone else? She would marry Xu Mao.

Her reaction was strong, and Xu Mao's was not small either.

Xu Mao even got off the bed, saying, "Mother, didn't I just say I was going to marry Chun'er? How could I let her marry someone else?"

Liu Fang's gaze grew colder and colder, to the point that Xu Mao dared not say anything more.

"Mao'er, marriage is a serious matter and should not be taken lightly. Your marriage will be decided by your parents," said Old Madam Xu.

Xu Mao remembered arguing with the two of them, "But Grandma, Mother, didn't you say before that we didn't need to consider family background or social standing when choosing a wife?"

“But our Xu family values ​​character and virtue. Tell me, where does this Chun’er fit the bill?”

"Putting everything else aside, just look at what happened in the house just now. Tell me, would our Xu family dare to keep someone like that?"

"She's always flirting with other women, using her position among the maids to bully others, and even daring to eavesdrop on her master's conversations. I wouldn't even consider her as a lowly maid, let alone a daughter-in-law for the Xu family."

Liu Fang, who usually speaks softly, was so angry today that her voice was much louder than usual.

Seeing Liu Fang turn her eyes away in anger, Xu Mao felt bad too. At this moment, Chun'er crawled to Xu Mao's feet.

"Second Young Master, I know that I come from a humble background and do not know the rules. I have offended the Old Madam and the First Madam. It is all my fault."

"You don't need to get angry with the old lady and the first lady over a little maid like me."

"I accept being kicked out. I have no regrets in this life for having met the Second Young Master and served him."

When she said the last sentence, Chun'er looked up at Xu Mao with teary eyes.

Xu Mao felt as if his heart had been struck by something, and his hands, which were hanging at his sides, clenched into fists.

Chun'er pretended to wipe away her tears with her hand, but the corners of her mouth, hidden by her sleeve, turned up in a smile.

She knew Xu Mao well; making a scene might not be effective, but this tactic of feigning retreat was definitely effective against him.

Liu Fang and Old Lady Xu didn't even bother to look at Chun'er, thinking that these little tricks were nothing special.

Until Xu Mao suddenly knelt down with a thud.

"Mao'er?" Liu Fang was startled, looking at Xu Mao's serious expression.

"Grandma, Mother," Xu Mao kowtowed to the two of them, "Your unfilial son."

Liu Fang's eyelids began to twitch, and she suddenly had a bad feeling.

As expected~

"I must marry Chun'er." Upon hearing this, the two women from the Xu family both turned pale.

Only Chun'er, who seemed to be sobbing with her head down, was actually overjoyed. She knew that this man still needed to be pushed a little.

"Mao'er," Old Madam Xu steadied herself, "your mother has already made herself clear enough."

Her grandson isn't stupid; he can't be unaware of the implications.

“Grandma, I know.” Xu Mao lowered his head. “Chun’er, Chun’er just doesn’t understand the rules yet. I will teach her slowly in the future.”

Even at this point, Xu Mao still couldn't believe that Chun'er was that kind of person; he felt there was probably some misunderstanding.

Liu Fang looked at her son, pondering his words carefully. After a long while, she finally asked.

"Mao'er, you said you absolutely must marry him, is there a reason for that?"

She knew her son; he wouldn't do something so disobedient to his elders unless something forced him to do it.

What else could it be besides liking another woman if a man insists on marrying her?

Liu Fang already had a guess in her mind, but she didn't want it to be true. As she stared at Xu Mao, she tightly clenched her sleeves to ease her nervousness.

Xu Mao's face flashed with too many emotions: shame, guilt, helplessness. Finally, he spoke in a hoarse voice.

"Mother, your son must take responsibility for Chun'er."

With a thud, Liu Fang's straight back slumped backward against the chair back.

Although she had guessed it, Liu Fang still couldn't recover when she heard her son say it.

Old Mrs. Xu found it even harder to accept than Liu Fang, "You, you~"

She seemed to want to scold Xu Mao, but instead clutched her chest. Wu Ma quickly stepped forward and said, "Madam, slow down your breathing."

"The doctor said you mustn't experience extreme joy or sorrow."

This is a lingering illness that started when Fu Man'er fainted after being kidnapped.

Seeing that Grandma Xu was clutching her chest in pain, Liu Fang and Xu Mao rushed over to comfort her.

Taking advantage of the chaos, Chun'er was finally able to stare at Old Madam Xu without restraint, praying incessantly in her heart.

I'm so angry, I'm going to make this old hag angry to death.

But things don't usually go as planned. Old Mrs. Xu slowly recovered, and Xu Mao also stepped back and knelt down.

Chun'er has stopped crying now. Since Xu Mao has already said so much, she knows that even if the Xu family doesn't agree, Xu Mao will find a way to marry her.

Right now, it seems that Liu Fang and Old Lady Xu are just angry and want to curse.

She wasn't afraid of that. If she didn't want to listen anymore, she could cry and go to Xu Mao, and Xu Mao would have a way to help her.

Once Grandma Xu caught her breath, she kept staring at Chun'er, making Chun'er's scalp tingle. Xu Mao stood to the side, not daring to breathe.

After a long while, Grandma Xu finally spoke.

"Your marriage is up to your parents to decide; this old woman won't interfere for now."

After hearing this, Chun'er smugly picked up her skirt and played with it. This old woman couldn't do anything about her, could she?

"But!" Old Mrs. Xu changed the subject, "Before this, this person was just a maid in our Xu family."

"Although I am old now, I can still manage a maid."

As Chun'er listened, she felt something was off.

"Aunt Wu," Grandma Xu called out, and Aunt Wu, who was standing behind her, immediately stepped forward.
