Mr. Xie had very deep feelings for his mother.
The old man was away from home all year round, and his mother took care of him and his siblings.
After all, he was her biological son, and the favoritism and affection she showed him were something the other children never received. It seemed that what he saw most during his childhood was the envious look in his brothers' eyes.
He wondered if the strained relationship between him and his brothers was due to some kind of trauma he had suffered in the past.
Now that his son is asking him to lie about his mother's death, Mr. Xie is finding it hard to get over the situation.
"Dad, I know this is very unfilial, but you know our situation is really not good. What if something happens to Master Xie..."
"Let me think about it!"
Xie Ming knew it would be difficult to get his father to make a decision in a short time, so he didn't say anything more.
The conversation between father and son ended in such a dull manner, but Xie Ming knew that he had already made a decision.
He couldn't protect his mother when he was young, and if he couldn't protect his wife and children when he grew up, Xie's father would never forgive himself.
Actually, Xie Ming's biological mother died after she went to the other side of the river. If she were alive, he could have brought her back. Now that she's gone, he just wants her to return to her roots.
In the following days, Xie's father, despite having dark circles under his eyes, continued to care for Xie Ming as usual, showing no signs of the heavy conversation the two had that night.
Despite his low spirits, he still accomplished something significant: he repaid Xie Ming for his mother's favor.
The matter was handled by someone hired by Xie's father, and the old man's remains were recovered "smoothly."
When Master Xie received the news while he was in the city, he knew that his fifth son had gone to find his biological mother, so he didn't pursue the matter of him running off to the countryside.
He was actually very upset that his wife had been kidnapped, and before he only dared to tell the public that she had gone missing.
Those who knew the truth back then scattered to all parts of the country. He was no longer afraid, but he still had a knot in his heart.
Alright, now that the son has found the remains and the keepsake has been verified, this matter can truly be put to rest.
He was also relieved that the person hadn't disgraced the Xie family. He was genuinely afraid that if he found her, she would have children, and he really didn't want to be cuckolded.
Knowing his grandfather's twisted thoughts, Xie Ming naturally couldn't let him suffer from the cold.
As for hats, his young wife has prepared several for him.
Xie Ming, who didn't want his grandfather to keep bouncing around in his high-class office, was preparing to give him a stroke treatment.
Just as Mr. Xie was urging his father to return to the city, the truth about his fourth wife was revealed.
The night before leaving the county, Xie's mother excitedly told Xie Ming the whole story she had heard from her sister-in-law.
It turns out this is also a melodramatic love story; Mr. Xie's young wife is a nurse he met while recovering from his injuries.
The young wife originally had a childhood sweetheart, but when she took care of the injured Master Xie, she guessed at the benefits that would come in the future, and the woman changed her mind.
After their marriage, the young wife realized that her husband was willing but unable to perform, and she thought of her childhood sweetheart who was young and strong.
So the two got together, and out of revenge, the childhood sweetheart secretly got his young wife pregnant with his child.
Master Xie was unaware that his wife was carrying another man's child, and he happily spoiled his youngest children.
Yes, of the four children born to his young wife, only one is Mr. Xie's; the other three are his childhood sweetheart's.
How did this get exposed?
This is thanks to Xie Ming, who sent a photo of his childhood sweetheart to Master Xie, along with a caption detailing his young wife's epic love story.
When Mr. Xie saw the face in the photo that resembled one of his children, he immediately realized that he had been cuckolded.
As for why he was certain that the three weren't his own, it was because the remaining one looked almost exactly like Master Xie.
Xie Ming was also extremely impressed with "Fourth Grandma". How could she be so good at picking seeds? Not a single one looked ambiguous, and there was no chance to appeal.
The latter half of the story is absolutely chaotic, with Master Xie having to face a pack of ravenous "brides" every night.
During the day, he still had to deal with a bunch of messy things. The outwardly strong but inwardly weak person suddenly became crooked and had a crooked mouth. He lay in bed every day waiting for others to feed him and take care of his urination... In the end, he directly received a medical retirement certificate.
Just when the Xie family was in turmoil, a man in the county town who wanted to gain some benefits by getting married heard a lot about the Qian family in Xiangyang Village.
I learned that the village party secretary, Qian Youdong, had a sworn brother who was a high-ranking official in the city, and that the Qian family's beloved granddaughter got whatever she wanted... a whole bunch of other things.
To make their precious daughter happy, the Qian family even went so far as to kidnap the child of a local leader and bring him to the village to become a farmer.
The man didn't believe it either, so he took the opportunity to inquire about it again when he went to the countryside to show a movie.
Seeing the Qian family's imposing tiled house and how the Qian family members were treated like nobles in the village, no one dared to offend them. His doubts began to waver, and he went to great lengths to find out about Qian Youdong's background.
It's actually quite easy to find out about Qian Youdong; everyone with any standing in the county knows him. He has a close friend who's a high-ranking official and values him highly, calling him every month to inquire about his well-being, fearing he might be neglected.
Then the man ran into Xie Ming, who was disheveled, a few more times, and he became even more convinced of Qian Youdong's methods.
The man immediately decided to get his hands on Qian Fen. He believed he was not only good-looking and intelligent, but more importantly, he had a job in the county.
He believed that if things went well, Qian Youdong would find a way to get rid of Xie Ming.
With so many ideas swirling in his head, he completely disregarded Xie Ming.
He firmly believed that as long as Qian Fen liked him, Qian Youdong would handle everything else cleanly.
Indeed, it was the same in her past life. Under Qian Youdong's planning, Qian Fen eventually married the person she loved, and she also gained a good reputation for being "selfless" and refusing to associate with bad elements.
