Don't blame her for thinking the Xu family is so despicable. Based on the current situation, Tang Qianqian may have had a relationship with Xu Ziye in her past life, but it ended without a clear conclusion. Given Xu Ziye's circumstances, Tang Qianqian probably wouldn't take the initiative to break up with him. The most likely reason is that the Xu family doesn't accept Tang Qianqian as their daughter-in-law.

Why not accept? Tang Qianqian's own qualities are a big plus: she is good-looking, highly educated, and has excellent manners and poise.

That must be due to family background.

But he accepted it in this lifetime, especially at such a critical juncture, which was obviously aimed at him. In the eyes of outsiders, his father only had one younger brother, Tang Yuanxu. Blood is thicker than water, and since his family became in-laws with Tang Yuanxu's family, it was only natural that they would also be related to his own family.

If you need anything in the future, you can ask for help easily. We're all relatives, so it's only right that we help each other out, isn't it?

Now that she is a person of some standing, it is inevitable that her every move will attract attention and discussion. Tang Yuanxu's family and her family are real relatives, and that will never change. So whether it is her not attending Tang Qianqian's wedding or her sitting idly by while the Xu family is suppressed, she will obviously be talked about.

Although Tang Xiaoxiao didn't care much about these things, she still felt a little annoyed when she thought about it.

Chinese people value blood ties and family bonds. With such a strong connection, as long as Tang Yuanxu's family wants to get involved, she can't completely shake them off without using ruthless methods.

Although she disliked her second uncle's family intensely, she couldn't bring herself to be ruthless towards them. If they were like some unruly and unreasonable relatives who came to her door every few days to cause trouble and try to take advantage of her, Tang Xiaoxiao wouldn't hesitate to beat them up.

But they didn't. They've been very well-behaved these past two years. Although they've schemed against her now, it's only so that Tang Qianqian can marry well.

After much deliberation, she finally decided to accompany Tang's father to the wedding. As for what to do after that, she would decide later.

That night, when Tang Xiaoxiao and Han Yunqi were lying in bed, Tang Xiaoxiao told him in detail about the entanglement between her family and Tang Yuanxu's family.

Since it concerns relatives and elders of the Tang family, Han Yunqi couldn't make any judgments. Every family has a few troublesome relatives. In fact, both the Tang and Han families are lucky; they don't have any particularly awful people.

It's perfectly normal for ordinary people to have their own little thoughts and schemes; no one is perfect.

"It depends on what Dad thinks. His attitude is the most important. After all, he's your only brother. If Dad is soft on him, you can't just stand by and do nothing."

Tang Xiaoxiao sighed and said, "That's true. Don't be fooled by Dad's quiet nature and seemingly bad temper. He rarely gets truly angry with anyone. In the end, his feelings for Second Uncle are just a mixture of deep love and intense resentment."

Speaking of this, I remembered that she had an aunt who had disappeared without a trace. The two families were not far apart, both in Luoxia Town. If they hadn't deliberately avoided each other, how could they have never met all these years?

She was even more speechless about this aunt. In both her lives, Tang Xiaoxiao still couldn't understand why her aunt had broken ties with her family. No one forced her to get married, and no one criticized her for not visiting her grandmother's family even once in all those years after marriage. Then, at her grandmother's funeral, she suddenly turned her anger on her own mother, her sister-in-law, and said some nonsensical things.
