"Why is he looking for the prince? Right now, finding your sister is the most important thing."
Xu Maocai felt that he had lost all face. He was not interested at all whether Lu Mingxuan looked for the prince or not.
Xu Wanyan looked at him, wanting to say something but stopping herself. In the end, she just looked at him with sympathy.
"Father, Yifan was angry with Aunt Zhao just now. I'll go see him."
Hearing that Huang Yifan was bullied, Xu Maocai suddenly became nervous, "Is he okay?"
Just as Xu Wanyan was about to speak, Huang Yueping whispered, "It's okay. He just saw me being beaten and couldn't figure it out for a moment."
Xu Maocai looked at Huang Yueping's face again, his heart filled with anger. "I've spoiled her too much, allowing her to become so arrogant and unreasonable."
Huang Yueping sighed, "I can understand her. Her mother-in-law is such a person, and she has been deposed as the principal wife. It's normal for her to find it hard to accept for a while."
Xu Maocai's face was filled with relief. "You are the most sensible one. Yifan is my son. I will never treat him unfairly."
Huang Yueping nodded, her eyes full of gratitude.
Xu Wanyan came to Wenzhuyuan and looked at Huang Yifan with red eyes.
Seeing Xu Wanyan coming, he called out softly, "Sister."
Xu Wanyan sat next to him and asked softly, "Are you still angry?"
Huang Yifan didn't say anything, but his clenched fists showed that he was still angry.
"It's all my fault. I dragged you and your son into the Xu family's mess and made you and your son suffer."
Huang Yifan shook his head. "I don't blame you. Mother agreed to return to the Xu family because she had her own plans. I just can't stand that Zhao guy. Why is he able to show off in the Xu family?"
Xu Wanyan pondered for a moment and said calmly, "Because she has someone backing her up."
Huang Yifan was stunned and looked at Xu Wanyan intently.
Xu Wanyan sighed and explained, "It turns out Aunt Zhao has my father's support. We've put in a lot of effort, but it only caused a little rift between them. It won't affect the fundamentals."
"Also, I think you should have heard about the Zhao brothers causing trouble a few days ago."
Huang Yifan nodded.
"Look, she can let her brother make decisions for her at will. Can we?"
Huang Yifan looked at Xu Wanyan in astonishment. Seeing his sister living so comfortably in the Xu family, he thought her life was easy. But...
"Xu Wanqing is about to climb up the social ladder, so good days are coming for them, mother and daughter."
"What should we do then?"
Huang Yifan was anxious. If this was the case, would they become meat on the chopping board?
Xu Wanyan smiled and patted his shoulder. "Don't worry about these things. Your mother and I will take care of them. Right now, the most important thing for you is to study hard and become an official in the future. That way, no one will dare to bully you."
"Really?"
Xu Wanyan looked at the confusion in his eyes and knew that he was still too young.
"Of course, just focus on your studies and we'll take care of the rest."
After thinking for a long time, Huang Yifan nodded firmly, "Sister, I'll listen to you. But, can you protect my mother?"
Xu Wanyan gave him a firm smile in return, "Of course I can."
"Okay, sister, from now on, I will study hard, and I will help you in the future."
Xu Wanyan nodded. She had the intention of giving up when she brought the mother and son back.
Not only does he hope that Huang Yueping will alienate Xu Maocai and Zhao Yaru, but he also wants the Xu family to completely change its appearance.

Feiyun Garden
"Miss, there's a letter from the Su family."
"real?"
Xu Wanyan was overjoyed.
"Look, it was sent by my cousin. My cousin has always been reliable in his work. Don't you still trust him?"
When it comes to Su Mu, Xu Wanyan naturally believes him.
It can be said that Su Mu helped her a lot during this period.
Without him, she wouldn't be doing so well.
Xu Wanyan excitedly unfolded the letter, which explained why she was notified to come over until today.
It was because after the old general returned to Beijing this morning, he went to the palace first and had an audience with the emperor. Now, he invited her to come over for consultation.
"Let's go, let's go to Su's house."
"Miss, Xu Wanqing is already impatiently packing her things and preparing to enter the palace."
Xu Wanyan wanted to laugh, but she didn't expect that her counterattack would actually cure Xu Wanqing's love brain.
It seems that she can't be so careless in the future.
"Let's look at the Lin family."
"yes."
After the group had packed up, Xu Wanyan prepared gifts and went to the Su family.
As soon as she got off the carriage, Su Mu and Su Bo were standing outside the door waiting for her as usual.
"Cousin, Su Bo"
"Miss Cousin"
"My cousin is here, and my grandfather is waiting for you inside."
Xu Wanyan nodded and followed him in.
At this moment, her mood was heavy, and all her previous calmness and composure turned into uneasiness.
She had walked this road several times before, so it seemed very short to her and she arrived there in just a moment.
"arrive."
Su Mu's whispered reminder made Xu Wanyan look towards the main hall, where a majestic old man was sitting on the armchair.
Looking at his weather-beaten face, Xu Wanyan knew that he must be her grandfather.
"Xu Wanyan has met grandfather."
Su Hairong looked at the little girl in front of him, and Su Feng's face, which had been blurred for many years, became clear again.
Suddenly, the scene of Su Feng playing in front of him as a child appeared in his mind, and the scene of her getting married and going out also appeared in his mind.
"grandfather……"
Su Mu looked at his motionless grandfather and couldn't help but remind him.
"Oh, Wanyan, it's been so many years since we last met. You've grown so big already."
The last time we met, she was still a baby, but now she has grown into a beautiful young lady.
Thinking of Su Feng's appearance before her death, Su Hairong couldn't help but tear up.
"You've suffered a lot over the years."
Xu Wanyan smiled faintly, "Luckily, I am my grandfather. I have been at the border for so many years. As his granddaughter, I have not fulfilled my filial duty."
"You can't be blamed for this. It's us elders who are not qualified enough."
Xu Wanyan saw his lost look and didn't know what to say.
"Grandfather, you came to the palace so early in the morning. What did the emperor say?"
Su Hairong sighed, "This matter is not so easy to discuss. I think His Majesty seems to want to find a suitable relative for Prince Chen."
"A good match?"
Su Mu sneered. What would it be like for the emperor's most beloved child to find a match of equal status?
Could it be possible that Xiao Jingming would marry a princess from another country?
If this happens, Xiao Jingming's path to power will be completely blocked.
Xu Wanyan didn't feel much. To be honest, she didn't want to get married at all.
If there is no other choice, Xiao Jingming is still a good choice.
But, making her a concubine is absolutely impossible.
"Yes, the emperor is unwilling to give in, but I will still return to the palace. This time, I am here for your marriage, so I will not compromise like this."
Xu Wanyan sighed, her grandfather actually had some feelings for her.
My grandfather was very unhappy before, but I didn't see him do anything.
