The princess glanced at Old Shen and said, "I actually think that little girl is very good. She's very caring at such a young age, and Xiao Ge'er is also close to her. An ugly face isn't a big deal; an ugly heart is. Humph, that bitch, she even got a glass of poisoned wine for free."
Old Shen blushed and smiled awkwardly, "After this incident, I was furious and swore never to return to my parents' home. Alas, I'm a concubine's daughter, and I can't have a say in my parents' affairs..."
She was extremely angry. If the ugly girl's sister had not intervened and saved Chai Zixiao, she would have been able to get a share of the mansion's wealth, or even all of it might belong to her descendants.
This place was rich and powerful, but unfortunately, there were few children. Besides the old Prince Consort Chai, the other two generations of men had plenty of women, but it was still a single-line family for three generations. She had originally hoped that little Shen would marry into the family, not that she would get pregnant. She knew that if she could kill that little brat, and if Chai Jun's other women couldn't have sons, she could adopt her great-grandson as the heir. But little Shen got pregnant a month after marrying... Alas, it was the old man's fault for being so angry that he orchestrated that incident, hoping to extort money from Old Lady Shen. But those two were so foolish that they let the little brat escape, and they disappeared too... Now, he didn't get to eat the mutton, but he got into trouble.
Thinking of this, her eyes darkened again as she looked at the back of Chai Zixiao and Xu Lanyue's heads.
When Old Shen was about to return home, the Fujian man arrived.
Min Jiaying stepped forward and asked weakly, "Dad, how is my mother's matter going? Do they admit that my mother is a good woman?"
Minhu smiled and said, "Your great-grandmother, grandfather, great-uncle, great-aunt, and everyone in the Min family all know that your mother is a good woman, a good mother, and she was framed."
Min Jia's tears welled up, and she rushed forward and threw herself into Min Hu's arms, crying, "I told you, my mother is the best mother. They are bad, grandmother..."
In front of so many people, she didn't dare to say the word "bad".
Minhu stroked her head and said, "Good girl, she is no longer your grandmother. The bad people have been driven away. Your great-grandmother misses you and wants you to come home."
Chai Zixiao was also happy for Sister Jia and said with a smile, "Uncle Min's family is just like mine, there are bad guys in it. If we beat the bad guys away, we won't be kidnapped."
Old Shen clenched her fists in her sleeves and smiled, "They say like fathers, like mothers. Look at Xiao'er, he's been living among the common people for so long, yet he's still so smart. He, like the eldest princess, has great wisdom. Where does that come from?"
The eldest princess liked to hear this and nodded with a smile.
Min Hu went over to greet the princess and said with a smile, "We have no choice but to air our family's shame in public."
Princess Nanyang sighed, "Same here. Didn't you see all the scandals going on in our house? Some evil women are crueler than wolves. Whoever gets caught up in them will suffer."
Minhu chatted with the princess for a while and then wanted to take Minjia back home.
After hearing this, Chai Zixiao quickly took Min Jia's hand and held Xu Lanyue's hand with one hand. He had already lost his aunt and uncle, and he didn't want to be separated from Sister Jia and Aunt Yue again.
Min Hu thought he still had a few days left in the capital, and he wanted to let his children spend more time together. He smiled at the eldest princess and said, "How about this? I'll invite Xiao Ge'er and Lan Yue to my house today and send them back tomorrow?"
Before the eldest princess agreed, the three children became happy. Chai Zixiao also instructed Qian Mama and Liu Cui to quickly prepare the food for the guests.
The eldest princess was reluctant to let her go, but seeing her great-grandson so happy and so smart, she could only smile and say, "Okay, okay. Xiao'er, remember to come back early tomorrow. Great Grandpa misses you."
Chai Zixiao was delighted. He ran to the eldest princess, crawled on her lap, and said, "Okay, I'll remember. I miss my great-grandfather, too."
After the great-grandson came back, it was the first time that he took the initiative to get so close to her. The eldest princess was so happy that she hugged Chai Zixiao and called him "little star, little moon, little baby".
The eldest princess had heard the origin of the name "Little Star", and seeing that her great-grandson liked it, she also used this name as his nickname.
Xu Lanyue pleaded with Minhu in a low voice again, "Brother Min, I've been accompanying Xiao Xingxing all the time and haven't had time to go to Grandfather Zhou's house. Before going to yours, please go to Grandfather Zhou's house first and bring him the snacks I sent him."
Minhu agreed with a smile.
When the late queen was alive, the eldest princess had a very good relationship with her.
The eldest princess smiled and said, "Yue girl has prepared a gift for the old master, so our Xiao brother should also prepare one."
Chai Zixiao added, "And Sister Jia, she wants one too."
The eldest princess nodded repeatedly.
After they left, the princess said to Old Shen, "You should go home too. I'm tired. Also, I haven't had a good rest these days, so please don't come to ask how I'm doing."
Old Shen agreed, blushing, and left with her granddaughter. She breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, she wasn't close to her family, so the princess didn't suspect her. Once they found and dealt with those two, they could rest easy.
Min Hu brought his three children to the Grand Tutor's Mansion.
Grand Tutor Zhou was delighted to receive the three children's small gifts. He gave them small gifts and insisted on inviting them to his mansion for dinner. After dinner, they returned to the Min Mansion.
At this time, everyone in Min Mansion was sitting with the old lady, waiting for Min Jia to return home.
When they watched the clever Min Jia walk into the house, kowtow to the elders, and even speak, although his speaking speed was slightly slow, it was already amazing.
The old lady's eyes were red, and she hugged Min Jia and looked at him for a long time. She called the other two children who had greeted her and gave them greeting gifts. Then she hugged Min Jia with one arm and Chai Zixiao with the other. Xu Lanyue sat next to Chai Zixiao, and the three old ladies laughed together.
Mrs. Min Ba was extremely surprised and asked Min Hu, "Which doctor cured Jia Jie'er's illness? Tell me quickly, and let him see me and my mother's family too."
She has a nephew from her mother's side who is a fool.
Her words made the old lady very unhappy. She snorted coldly, "Your nephew from your mother's side is mentally retarded. Our Jia'er was just stimulated. How can it be the same?"
Mr. Min Ba glared at Madam Ba, and Madam Ba blushed to her ears.
Minhu was also a little unhappy, but he still said gently, "We didn't see a doctor. Jiaer knows that her mother is a good person. Now that her heart knot has been untied, she's fine."
The old lady asked everyone else to leave, leaving only Minhu and the three children, and asked them to stay with her tonight.
After the three children rested, Mrs. Min Tai whispered to Min Hu.
"The one who helped Jiaer resolve her emotional issues was Miss Xu, the one who cured your insomnia?"
Minhu nodded and said, "It was her. Not only did she resolve Jia'er's worries, she also reminded Jia'er that she saw with her own eyes that An was pushed into Zhu Jiang's arms by Bihe. That's when I became suspicious and sent people to investigate thoroughly..."
He went on to talk about all the good things about Xu Lanyin. He had wanted to talk about his relationship with Xu Lanyin before leaving, but the old lady asked about it today, so he had the opportunity to praise Xu Lanyin more.
