Having said all that, Madam Xu began to doubt the old man's words. Ignoring the presence of the servants, she grabbed Xu Jiang by the ear and left.
Xu Jiang and his wife arrived at the gate in a loud argument, where they ran into Xu Sheng and his two companions.
In springtime, the Xu family home was surrounded by flowerbeds. Xu Sheng, dressed in a black suit, walked in, and his cold and aloof face made the maid beside him blush.
Mr. Xu, being of advanced age, has truly won everyone's hearts.
However, some people noticed that Mr. Xu seemed colder and thinner than before.
His eyes were indifferent, and even in the warm spring day, they gave off a chill.
"Big brother, sister-in-law."
"Uncle, Aunt."
Xu Sheng, Xu Huanyan, and the other two greeted Xu Jiang.
When Madam Xu saw that Xu Sheng and the others had arrived, she released Xu Jiang's ear.
"Xiao Sheng," Xu Jiang said to Xu Sheng for help, "ask your father when I gave birth to an illegitimate daughter!"
He was truly more wronged than Dou E.
"When did you do it, when you were young?"
"Madam Xu said angrily."
"I have no interest in such matters," Xu Sheng replied calmly, then strode forward toward the main gate of the house.
Jiang Yun smiled gently at Xu Jiang and his wife, but when she turned around, the smile disappeared, and her eyes revealed a look of disdain.
Xu Huanyan walked at the very back.
"Look, even Xu Sheng doesn't believe you."
The First Madam became even angrier and continued to drag Xu Jiang out the door by the ear.
The noise from the two gradually faded away. Xu Sheng, Jiang Yun, and the other two went up the steps. As usual, Jiang Yun and Xu Huanyan were left in the lobby, while Xu Sheng went to see the old man alone.
The old man knew that his youngest son's family had arrived. He sat in the seat of honor and watched Xu Sheng walk towards him step by step.
"Where's Xiaobai?"
The old man first asked about Xu Bai.
Back then, Xu Sheng brought his son home and handed him over to the old man to raise. Xu Bai was raised by the old man and his wife.
"Working on a project."
Gu Jingchen kept a close eye on the Xu family, leaving Xu Bai to handle the situation.
"Hmm," the old man replied, "You should take a rest. Leave the work to Xiaobai."
Xu Sheng did not answer. Sitting to the left of the old man, he picked up his tea and slowly sipped it.
As sunlight streamed in, the old man's gaze fell on Xu Sheng's hair.
"I plan to host a banquet."
"Is it for my elder brother's daughter?" Xu Sheng looked up at the old man and asked.
He easily guessed the old man's purpose in holding the banquet, and those sharp, cold eyes reminded the old man of Su Ning.
"right!"
"She is the daughter of the Xu family, she cannot be wronged."
The old man looked at Xu Sheng and spoke again.
"Is it necessary for a father to hold such a grand celebration for an illegitimate daughter?" Xu Sheng sneered, his tone cold and indifferent, which caused the person in the inner room to smash their water glass.
Hearing the noise, Xu Sheng turned his head to look into the inner room.
The old man knew that Su Ning inside had heard what Xu Sheng said. He remembered Su Ning saying that Xu Sheng wouldn't acknowledge her, so he spoke up, "She is your older brother's biological daughter. There's nothing shameful about her."
"Xu Sheng, you two are in charge of handling the banquet."
"Old Master Xu said in a calm voice."
The father and son had been at odds for many years, and it was unclear who was at fault or what the conflict was about. All that was left was that everything changed after Xu Sheng married Jiang Yun twenty years ago.
Xu Sheng looked at the old man as if he wanted to say something, but then held back.
"good!"
After a long pause, he responded with a single word.
"This matter must be handled well."
After Xu Sheng stood up and went out, Old Master Xu gave instructions in a calm voice.
