These words made Su Yanqing's eyes light up: "Mom, what do you mean by this?"
Seeing that Su Yanqing didn't understand, Yan Wenhua continued, "You and Nan Zhi got along very well in the past. It was because Mom was too extreme before. From now on, Mom won't interfere with whoever you like."
Yan Wenhua's words were a bit vague, but Su Yanqing understood the meaning.
"I know, Mom."
Not knowing what little tricks they were talking about, after adding Su Jilin’s contact information, Xu Nanzhi got in the car and left.
The Xu family at this moment was so quiet that it was terrifying.
Everyone kept silent.
Old Master Xu's expression was frighteningly gloomy, and Xu Kui didn't look very good either.
Yao Lihua had a worried look on her face, and Zhou Shiyi shrank back hard, trying to reduce her presence.
The air pressure inside the house is very low.
Xu Shiqing looked at the expressions of these people and she was not in a good mood either.
Everything was planned well, but it was ruined by an accident. Not only that, but she had to marry a jerk like Su Jilin. The more she thought about it, the more frustrated she felt.
Just as he was about to speak, suddenly, there was a very crisp sound.
Old Master Xu threw the teacup to the ground. The sound of the porcelain pieces hitting the ground instantly shattered the teacup.
Following the sound, Xu Kui looked over and saw that the teacup that was originally placed in front of him had now broken into pieces on the ground.
The teacup in front of Mr. Xu was still standing steadily on the table.
Sure enough, even when the old man was angry, he knew to take good care of the teacup he bought at a high price.
Reaching out, he picked up Mr. Xu's teacup and handed it to him: "Dad, have some tea to calm down."
Old Master Xu glanced at the teacup handed to him by Xu Kui and snorted coldly. After taking a sip, he placed it on the coffee table, a little further in.
"Hmph, look at what your daughter has done!"
"She's really capable. She schemed against a man, ended up losing more than she gained, and ended up getting herself into trouble."
These words were said with such anger that Zhou Shiyi shrank back in fear.
"Look at what she's been doing lately. What on earth is she trying to do? Is she going to rebel against the heavens?"
Mr. Xu emphasized the last words, and anyone could hear the anger in his voice.
"Dad, you are right. It's all my fault for not disciplining him properly. I will discipline him properly from now on."
Xu Kui replied carefully.
Xu Shiqing glanced at Old Man Xu and didn't know where she got the courage from: "Grandpa, I don't want to marry Su Jilin!"
"Shut up!" Xu Kui roared.
Old Master Xu looked up at her and said, "You don't want to? Then what do you want? Marry Su Yanqing?"
"You can't arrange things properly and have become a laughing stock. Now, Su Jilin agrees to marry you only because the Su family is considering the Xu family and an old man like me." The old man almost shouted these words.
"You shameful thing! From today on, you will stay home and reflect on your actions. I think you've been blinded by greed these days. Calm down."
"As for the marriage with the Su family, even if you don't want to, that's all you can do. Look at what you did, with so many people watching. Which family would want you? Do you think Su Yanqing is a fool? How could he want you after seeing you rolling around with his own brother?"
The old man's words were merciless.
Then he looked at Zhou Shiyi. For a moment, Zhou Shiyi trembled all over. He looked at her, but Mr. Xu didn't speak to her.
He said to Xu Kui, "The news about the Su family will spread tomorrow. They will say that the two families are already aristocratic families, and now their children are engaged. Yesterday, they were just emotionally overwhelmed. No matter what, it's an explanation."
"As for the others involved in this matter, you can handle it yourselves. It's getting late now. I'm an old man, and I've been working so hard all night. It's time to rest."
He glanced at Xu Kui and his family of three with a warning look on his face: "I don't want this kind of thing to happen again."
When Mr. Xu went upstairs, Xu Kui glared at Xu Shiqing and Yao Lihua and said, "Look at your wonderful daughter. You've been dealing with all those awful things for her every day lately."
"And your family, they can't help at all, and they just cause me trouble every day."
Yao Lihua looked at Xu Kui's annoyed expression and explained, "Hubby, poetry isn't..."
Before he could finish his words, Xu Kui interrupted him: "Shut up! I've heard so many of these explanations, it's getting on my nerves."
"You must keep an eye on your daughter. Don't let her go anywhere in the near future. As for the marriage with the Su family, you can discuss it with her. The sooner the better."
Having said that, he stood up and walked outside.
"Hubby, where are you going so late?"
Xu Kui said without even turning his head: "Don't worry about me, I won't be back tonight."
Xu Shiqing looked at Xu Kui's back without saying a word, not knowing what he was thinking.
On the other hand, Yao Lihua, who was standing aside, had a look of resentment on her face.
Xu Kui went to his lover's house at night. The girl was pregnant with his child at a young age. Unlike the women at home who could only scream at the top of their lungs, her gentle and considerate look made Xu Kui's heart melt.
"Mom, don't you think my dad's been a little weird lately?"
"What's strange about that?"
Yao Lihua asked with some confusion.
Xu Shiqing was about to speak, but when she saw Zhou Shiyi still standing beside her, she stopped talking.
Looking at Zhou Shiyi, she said, "Thank you so much for today, cousin. Don't worry, you will definitely get some benefits."
"In addition to the apartment in the city that we agreed on, I'm giving you an extra bag."
Having shouldered such a huge responsibility, Zhou Shiyi naturally wouldn't do a business that would lose money. With a hint of caution on her face, she said, "Thank you, cousin. This is what I should do."
Xu Shiqing looked at her and chuckled, "Alright, you go back first. I'll have someone deliver the things to you in the next few days. It's getting late, and your uncle and the others will be worried if you go back too late."
"Then cousin, aunt, I will go back first."
Yao Lihua waved her hand casually. She really was not in the mood to put on a smile to Zhou Shiyi.
After sending Zhou Shiyi away, Xu Shiqing looked at Yao Lihua again: "Mom, don't you think my dad hasn't been home at night too often recently?"
Yao Lihua thought for a moment and said, "Yes, a little, but he's had a lot of company social engagements lately, so I understand."
Xu Shiqing sneered: "I don't think so."
"Mom, I'd say you should be more careful, or we won't be caught off guard by some mistress or two."
"Ah, no way!" Yao Lihua shook her head.
"Why not?"
