Zhao Yaru panicked for a moment, then calmed down. "You're mentally ill, blaming me for everything."
After saying this, Zhao Yaru didn't argue any further and left with Mother Gu.
The remaining few people had interesting expressions on their faces.
"Wanyan, go see your aunt and try to persuade her. We are all family. If this incident becomes known to everyone, it will not be good for anyone."
Xu Wanyan nodded and said, "Grandfather, I will go and persuade him."
"Okay, good boy, Grandfather believes you can persuade her. After all, your mother got along well with her back then."
After hearing this, Xu Wanyan became more convinced that her aunt could help her.
Thinking of this, she couldn't wait to talk to her aunt.
"Yes, I'll go right away."
When she walked out the door, Xu Wanyan glanced behind her coldly and couldn't help laughing.
Xiao Jingming is a prince and has a bad reputation outside. She has already married him, so why should she be afraid of the bad reputation of the Xu family?
Besides, it would be more appropriate for them to be a good match if they both have a bad reputation.
"Let's go see my aunt."
"Miss, do you really want to listen to the old man and persuade the eldest lady?"
Xu Wanyan nodded. "Please try to persuade her. Don't be fooled by her anger just now. In fact, I don't know how sad she is. I'll go see her and comfort her."
Qiao Yun nodded. Indeed, the eldest lady had cried several times just now.
When we arrived at He's temporary residence, sure enough, she was sitting in the house crying.
"Aunt..."
Hearing Xu Wanyan's voice, He quickly wiped the tears from her face and said with a forced smile, "Wanyan, you're here."
Xu Wanyan nodded, walked up to her and sat down.
"Aunt, I'm sorry."
He looked at Xu Wanyan doubtfully, then nodded in understanding, "It's not your fault. You're still a child."
"I should have told my aunt earlier."
He shook her head. "It's none of your business. You're a child. I shouldn't involve you in adult matters. Besides, your life in the Xu family isn't easy."
"I know your mother to some extent. She must have had some means to force her to death."
Xu Wanyan nodded. "Yes, she didn't treat me well and even wanted to harm me. But now she is Aunt Zhao."
At this point, He was stunned. "Auntie? She...how did she become an aunt out of nowhere?"
Xu Wanyan smiled and said, "She did something that displeased her grandfather and father, so..."
He suddenly laughed, "She, after a lifetime of pride, ended up like this."
Xu Wanyan nodded. "You know my father's current wife. She was Concubine Huang. She gave birth to a son for my father, so my father made her his legal wife."
He felt confused and asked, "So many things happened in your family?"
"Um."
"Mom will bring my younger brother to see you in a little while. He is my father's only son, so he naturally dotes on him."
“The only…”
He didn't say the rest.
However, Xu Wanyan could guess it.
"Your mother also had a miserable life. I never expected that I would end up like her."
Xu Wanyan became anxious when she heard this: "Aunt, please don't let it get to your head. As long as you are the mistress of the Xu family, Xu Wanyu and her daughter will always be concubines. Besides, Xu Wanyu is already so old, and Uncle hasn't said anything. I guess he doesn't plan to take them back."
Hearing this, He was suddenly stunned and looked straight at Xu Wanyan.
"Did I make a mistake?"
Xu Wanyan shook her head, "Aunt, did you have a fight with Uncle?"
He nodded.
"Did you go to see that woman outside?"
He said, "I went to look for her, but your uncle hid her, so I couldn't find her."
"Then why did you come to the capital?"
"I received a letter telling me that your father had done this, so when I couldn't find that bitch, I came looking for the child. I thought if I took the child back, she would come forward."
"What happens after she comes forward? Will the aunt let them enter the Xu family?"
He was furious. "How can I do that? She's just a little whore. When I find her, I'll tear her face off."
Xu Wanyan shook her head. "Aunt, if you bring Xu Wanyu back to Linzhou, and there's a commotion, won't their identities as mother and daughter be exposed? If you don't let them into the Xu family, I'm afraid the Lin family will drown you in gossip."
"By then, if anyone tries to persuade my uncle again, he will definitely let them come back."
"He dares?"
"Aunt, do you think he would dare to do that? If that happens, you and your cousins will be the ones who will suffer."
When talking about the child, He suddenly softened.
If the matter gets out of hand, Wanxia, who is already married, will definitely be laughed at by her in-laws.
I'm afraid that my son, who has not yet married, will also be implicated.
He was silent, a look of sorrow on her face. "Is that it?"
Xu Wanyan smiled and said, "Aunt, there's no need to be so desperate. Instead of letting them live by your side, it's better to find someone to look after them. Out of sight, out of mind."
He nodded, then shook her head, "But, are we just going to let them go like this?"
Xu Wanyan didn't say anything. Even if He wanted to let her go, she didn't intend to let Xu Wanyu go.
"Aunt, why don't you lower your stance and go talk to Grandpa and Father and see what they plan to do. Since they were able to bring Xu Wanyu to the capital, they probably don't intend to let her go back."
He nodded, "Well, then I'll go talk to your grandfather."
"Well, you are his eldest daughter-in-law, and he still values you very much."
He's expression improved a lot, "I was too impulsive."
"When encountering such a thing, it is natural to think it is not right. No matter what, you are the legitimate mother, you can still discipline her."
He smiled and said, "Thank you for your polite words. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid I would have to argue with them for a while."
"Aunt, you finally made it to the capital. Please stay here and enjoy yourself. I'm getting married in a few days."
He nodded and said, "When you get married, your uncle and his family should come over."
Xu Wanyan didn't say anything, as if she had never been here in her previous life.
In this life, even if Xu Maocai doesn't invite them, they probably won't come.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel that Xu Maocai was a little unpresentable.
You have a daughter, but you let her wedding be so shabby. It's really shameful!
"Aunt, I won't keep you any longer. I have a lot of things to prepare over there, so I'll go get busy now."
"Go ahead and do your work. When I'm done with this, I'll come and help you. It's not easy for you as a child without an elder by your side. I'll help you keep an eye on things."
"Okay, thank you, Auntie."
Looking at He's leaving back, Xu Wanyan's eyes were deep.
