Everyone looked towards the person at the door.
The visitor was also young, wearing a proper Mao suit, with her hair combed neatly, and there was another middle-aged man beside her.
"What are you talking about?"
Xie Donglou's brows were furrowed so tightly that they could pinch a fly to death.
He looked at Xie Xiaogu with dissatisfaction on his face.
"Brother, what I said is true..."
An Yuzhu: “…”
Xie Yin, however, got up from the ground and called out sweetly.
"aunt."
"Are you okay?" Aunt Xie touched Xie Yin's head lovingly, still complaining to Commander Xie, "Brother, you are such a fool. No matter how angry you are, you can't hurt your own daughter."
"You farted!"
Xie Donglou glared at Xie Xiaogu.
Everyone in the compound knew that Xie Yin was the daughter born to Bai Qianzhu before she entered the Xie family, and the two had never met before.
"Brother, it is indeed true."
As Aunt Xie spoke, she took out a few letters from her pocket and handed them over.
After Xie Donglou saw it, his face turned stern.
For the first time, he felt resentful towards Commander Xie, who was like a brother and a father to him.
"You can take a look too."
He handed the letter to Xie Xilou.
An Yuzhu was dying of curiosity.
Seeing Xie Donglou's expression, he also picked up a letter and started reading it. After finishing reading it, he showed an expression that was hard to describe.
It turns out that Commander Xie had been having an affair with Bai Qianzhu for a long time. The letter in his hand was the evidence.
Xie Xilou: “…”
"Second brother, third brother," Aunt Xie glared at them, "Xiao Yin is really eldest brother's child."
"this..."
Xie Donglou glanced at Xie Yanzhao who was silent, and then he quickly took all the letters and threw them onto the stove.
“Second brother!”
Aunt Xie rushed over, but the fire was so fierce that the letter was quickly burned to ashes.
"Second brother!" Aunt Xie turned around in embarrassment, "What do you mean by this?"
Xie Yin was stunned.
I never thought that my solid status could be ruined like this...
She screamed and was about to rush over to fight Xie Donglou, but was slapped away by An Yuzhu who was standing beside her.
An Yuzhu raised her chin and looked at Xie Yin who was covering his face.
Her husband can only be bullied by her!
"Second sister-in-law!"
Aunt Xie was extremely anxious and quickly helped Xie Yin up from the ground.
"What are you calling me? You're just a bastard from nowhere," Xie Donglou wanted to kill his sister, "You want to claim to be the ancestor of the Xie family? You're dreaming!"
"Second brother, you clearly know..."
"Shut up!"
Lou Donglou glared, causing Xie Xiaogu to shudder.
"What happened today... I'll come back to settle the score with you in a few days!"
Xie Yin pushed Aunt Xie away and said, "I am my father's daughter... Don't even think about kicking me out! Don't even think about it!"
She hugged a pillar in the middle of the hall and stared at everyone.
Aunt Xie was very distressed, "Second brother, Xiaoyin is still a child of our Xie family, you can't do this."
"What Xie family kid?" Xie Donglou was determined not to admit it. "Do you have evidence? Third brother, what are you going to do about this?"
Aunt Xie was very angry, but she could do nothing about this rogue second brother.
She had no choice but to look at her third brother. This brother was the kindest, so he should agree to let Xie Yin stay, right?
"I listen to my second brother."
"Third brother, why are you also..."
"Shut up!" Xie Donglou said with a sullen face, "I haven't said anything about you yet. You said she is my eldest brother's daughter based on a few letters. Are you crazy?"
An Yuzhu also took the opportunity to step on her.
"That's right. Uncle is a soldier who defends his country. You can't do anything that will affect his reputation. Sister, do you really not understand or are you pretending not to understand?"
"you!"
Aunt Xie's face turned red with anger.
Xie Donglou waved his hand impatiently, "I asked you to see my brother off, but you came later than the guests. Alright, leave now."
"That little Yin..."
"It's none of my business! That bitch Bai Qianzhu smashed my brother to death. I'm just being nice because I don't skin her alive. Get out of here!"
Aunt Xie still didn't want to give up, "I have to settle Xiaoyin down anyway."
"It seems you didn't take anything I said just now to heart!"
This means that we don't care whether she lives or dies.
Xie Yin also became anxious when he heard this.
"Aunt..."
"Brother...she——"
"If you fart again, get out of here!"
Aunt Xie let out a sigh of relief, and then she turned her gaze to Xie Yanzhao and Ruan Mingfu who were watching the show on the side.
Ruan Mingfu, who was eating pea yellow, said: …
Ah, this... couldn't be what she thought?
Sure enough, Aunt Xie spoke up: "Yan Zhao, Xiao Yin is your biological daughter after all—"
With a "pop" sound.
Aunt Xie covered her face and looked at Xie Donglou in disbelief.
An Yuzhu silently stretched out her legs and admired Xie Xiaogu's miserable appearance with a gloating look.
God knows how long she has tolerated this sister-in-law.
Xie Donglou covered his chest, almost mad at this stupid sister!
Doesn't Aunt Xie know about his entanglement with Bai Qianzhu?
Even in this situation, she still has the nerve to push Xie Yin to Xie Yanzhao. Is she thinking that her life is too good, or is she afraid that Xie Yanzhao will lose his temper? He is too embarrassed to mention this mother and daughter in front of Xie Yanzhao. Aunt Xie is really shameless.
If he really wants to drive people away and cut off contact with these uncles, Xie Donglou will stew Xie Xiaogu and make soup!
"roll!"
"Second brother..."
Xie Donglou pointed at the door and said, "Get out!"
The middle-aged man who came with her tugged at the corner of Xie Xiaogu's clothes.
Xie Xiaogu looked at Xie Yanzhao unwillingly, but she didn't say anything. She turned to leave, but Xie Yin hugged her legs as if grasping a life-saving straw.
"Aunt, you can't leave... They are prejudiced against my mother and have long disliked me... Aunt!"
Xie Yin seemed to know the fate he would face, with fear on his face.
Xie Donglou hated Bai Qianzhu for killing Commander Xie, so there was no way he would accept her. Not to mention An Yuzhu, who had a grudge against Bai Qianzhu. Even if Xie Donglou agreed, this shrew would definitely oppose it.
As for Xie Xilou...his family was too poor, and Xie Yin had never considered him at all.
After much thought, only Aunt Xie could take her in.
but……
"I am Dad's biological daughter, there is nothing wrong with that," Xie Yin raised her red eyes, "Give me ten thousand, or I will go to the newspaper to expose our father-daughter relationship."
She looked at Xie Yanzhao with threatening eyes.
"Although Dad is dead, you are still in the army—"
Before he could finish his words, he got hit on the face again.
Xie Donglou looked at her viciously, but he smiled even though he was extremely angry.
"You and your bitch mother are cut from the same cloth."
The man's hand was strong, and a red hand mark soon appeared on Xie Yin's face. The corner of his mouth was torn and bleeding, and his teeth were loose.
“Second brother!”
Aunt Xie held Xie Yin in her arms, her eyes full of heartache.
"How about it, have you thought about it?"
"You are just dreaming," Ruan Mingfu came over and sneered at her, "Don't even think about getting a dime, let alone ten thousand. If you want to sue me, go ahead. I want to see how you win."
Commander Xie died completely, even his body was burned to ashes. Even if there is a letter proving Xie Yin's identity, who can say it is true? Even if it is true, who can say that this child is definitely Xie Yin?
"you!"
When Xie Yin saw Ruan Mingfu, all the old hatreds and new hatreds came to her mind. She wanted to go up and scratch her face, but because she had just recovered from a serious illness, she couldn't even get up.
"You are Yan Zhao's wife, how can you say such things?" Aunt Xie frowned tightly, "Yan Zhao doesn't care about it, how can you have the right to speak here?"
"What she said is what I meant."
Xie Yanzhao came over and looked at her calmly.
Under his oppressive gaze, Xie Xiaogu lowered her head.
"Okay, get out of here!" Xie Donglou waved his hands like he was shooing away a fly, "Before you leave, take this garbage with you. By the way, I will have the army come to collect the room tomorrow, so don't bother to come here anymore."
Xie Yin: “…”
Even though she knew this would be the result, she still couldn't accept it when she faced it.
Compared to Xie Yanzhao, Xie Yin has a deeper feeling for this place.
"No... no, no... How can I take the room..."
Xie Yin wanted to argue a little more, but was pulled away by Xie Xiaogu, who was looking at Xie Donglou threateningly.
Looking at their backs, Xie Donglou snorted.
"What the hell!"
When he saw Ruan Mingfu, his face was full of smiles again, "Niece-in-law, are you not scared? Your aunt has been spoiled by your eldest brother since she was a child. She does things without thinking. Don't bother with her."
"Uncle, I don't take it to heart..."
After leaving the compound, Aunt Xie supported Xie Yin and walked on the road.
She looked at her with heartache, and her resentment towards her two brothers increased sharply.
"Your second and third uncles are really heartless. You called them uncles before. Don't be afraid. Just live with your aunt from now on. I will definitely take care of you in the future."
Xie Yin raised her red eyes and said, "Thank you, auntie."
Seeing her like this, Xie Yin felt even more distressed. She took out the handkerchief she brought with her and wiped the tears from her face.
"Don't be afraid, Auntie will protect you."
"snort!"
A cold snort came from the side, and the middle-aged man looked at Xie Xiaogu with dissatisfaction.
"I don't agree."
"What?" Xie Xiaogu's voice was sharp and shrill. She looked at him in disbelief. "Zhang Qiang, what do you mean by this?"
Zhang Qiang glanced at Xie Yin.
"I said I didn't agree with her living at home."
He had been married to Aunt Xie for more than ten years, so he naturally knew about the little things that happened in Commander Xie's family. He looked down upon this unlucky mother and daughter. Looking at her performance just now, Zhang Qiang was afraid that she would lead his children astray.
"no……"
This idiot, Commander Xie is dead but he didn't know how to maintain a good relationship with his promising nephew. This incident today is considered to have offended him to death. Zhang Qiang was not disappointed either, he was just an uncle and his relationship with Xie Yanzhao was not very good.
And Aunt Xie had been close to Bai Qianzhu before...
Hard to comment!
Anyway, Commander Xie is gone, so he doesn't need to give face to Aunt Xie anymore.
"If you bring her back, get out with her!"
Zhang Qiang uttered some harsh words and left.
“You, you…”
Aunt Xie, who had lived a smooth life for most of her life, never imagined that her husband would treat her like this.
She looked at Zhang Qiang's back as he left without hesitation, and a sense of panic suddenly arose in her heart.
Xie Yin pursed his lips.
Staring at Zhang Qiang's back with murderous intent...
She made up her mind that when she became rich, she would kill those who looked down on her!
"Xiao Yin."
Seeing Aunt Xie looking at him, Xie Yin quickly put on a pitiful expression.
"Aunt~"
"Xiaoyin, your uncle doesn't agree," Aunt Xie said bitterly, "I'll see if there's anyone renting a house nearby, and you can live there..."
Xie Yin could no longer hear the rest of the words.
Well said...
If a man objects, he will just forget about his niece!
She pinched her palms and drooped her eyelids to block her eyes full of ferocity and viciousness.
At this moment, Xie Yin even hated Xie Xiaogu.
…
After taking care of Commander Xie's funeral, Ruan Mingfu and Xie Yanzhao both breathed a sigh of relief.
"Why, you don't want to see me?"
As soon as Lin Xiao saw the door, he saw Xie Yanzhao retreating.
"No."
When he said this, he couldn't help but look behind Lin Xiao. He heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that there were no two familiar burdens behind him.
The other party glanced at him but did not expose him.
"Okay, I have something serious to talk to you about today."
Xie Yanzhao's eyes flashed with bitterness, "Uncle, let's go in and talk."
Lin Xiao walked into the place commonly known as the flower hall.
Even though it's not the first time I've seen it, I still sigh.
The rich man really dotes on his sister.
Looking at the carvings around and the antiques on the treasure pavilion next to it, he didn't know it was real before, and thought it was a replica from somewhere. Looking at the signature on the bottom of the bottle, he couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.
Damn, blue and white porcelain from the Yuan Dynasty.
At that moment, the sound of Lin Xiao's footsteps became quieter.
I heard from Guan Jiu that these things were transported from the port city, another part was donated, and the remaining part was in the two courtyards given to Ruan Mingfu.
Lin Xiao: “…”
At that moment, the desire to have a rich brother like Qi Yangyan reached its peak.
"Where's Mingfu?"
"I'm very tired from all the work today, so I'm going to rest in my room."
Lin Xiao nodded and then got down to business.
"Remember the exchange meeting that Baron Andre mentioned?"
When Xie Yanzhao heard the word "Andre", his face darkened again.
He had heard of it before. This bastard came here specially this morning just to have Ruan Mingfu be his translator.
Thinking of this, Xie Yanzhao couldn't help gritting his teeth again.
Looking at him like this, Lin Xiao felt that today's matter could be at least half accomplished.
"I came to you for this exchange meeting," he glanced at Xie Yanzhao's face, smiling secretly but not showing it on his face, "You also know that our Ministry of Foreign Affairs has sent a lot of people, and we are really short of manpower, so I thought of asking you to come over and help."
"No."
Xie Yanzhao refused without even thinking about it.
Lin Xiao was not in a hurry, "Don't you want to consider it?"
"We have to leave in two days, time is tight."
"Oh," Lin Xiao looked at him and stood up calmly, "In that case, I'll go ask Ming Fu to see if she has any intention..."
Sure enough, as soon as Lin Xiao walked in front of Xie Yanzhao, he was stopped by him.
He squeezed out these words from between his teeth.
"Uncle, you did it on purpose."
Ruan Mingfu was delicate but kind. As an elder, if Lin Xiao asked her, she would definitely not be able to refuse.
Xie Yanzhao: “…”
No wonder Old Gu always called Lin Xiao a fox. He finally learned his lesson today.
Lin Xiao smiled complacently and patted his shoulder.
"In that case, then it's settled. I'll have someone pick you up at eight tomorrow morning."
Xie Yanzhao had a dark face and said nothing.
Lin Xiao had grasped his weak spot.
Knowing his relationship with Andre, and knowing that this guy is around, he will never let Ruan Mingfu go alone...
Damn it, I’m being held captive.
The next morning, the cold wind was howling.
Ruan Mingfu couldn't help but lean into Xie Yanzhao's arms, and only when she felt the heat did she relax. However, she also became sober.
"Xie Yanzhao, it's so cold today."
You can see the scene outside through the window.
The wind messed up the branches of the cypress tree in front of the window, and other plants were not spared. A thick layer of white was exposed on the ground, which made Ruan Mingfu shiver in bed.
"Why don't you sleep a little longer?"
Xie Yanzhao put his hand on her waist and rested his head on the crook of her neck.
"I can't fall asleep after I wake up," she opened her eyes wide, unable to resist avoiding his approach, "Look outside, it must be very cold today."
Feeling the other party's rejection, Xie Yanzhao simply picked her up and used her as a cushion.
Frightened, Ruan Mingfu saw nothing but a blur before her eyes, and the two of them fell off.
She stretched out her paw and patted the dog man's chest.
"All the heat is gone, it's all your fault!"
In this kind of weather, getting up really requires courage. Ruan Mingfu stretched out her hand, and it soon became cold.
Xie Yanzhao quickly grabbed her and stuffed her back into the quilt.
"If you catch a cold, you'll be the one suffering."
"Isn't this still you~"
Ruan Mingfu leaned happily on Xie Yanzhao's body, and her cold hands quickly warmed up.
"We are going back the day after tomorrow, and I still have a lot of things I want to buy."
She did some calculations in her heart... Damn!
It doesn't feel like they are here to do business, but more like they are here to purchase goods.
Xie Yanzhao looked apologetic, "I'm afraid I can't go with you..."
He told Ruan Mingfu about Lin Xiao's situation, and then she nodded.
As soon as she came back yesterday, she fell asleep and didn't know anything.
The two of them hesitated for a while, and in the end they almost got into an accidental fight. Ruan Mingfu then climbed up as if to escape.
Just as she expected, the weather today was freezing cold.
The cold wind blows on my body, chilling me to the bone.
On the short walk from the main courtyard to the flower hall, Ruan Mingfu couldn't help yawning several times.
"Oh, you've caught a cold. Come drink the soup I just made. It's still hot."
Maybe it was because of the burning charcoal, it was very warm here. Ruan Mingfu sat at the table and looked at the soup that Zhang Ma brought over.
It is a simple Tremella and Meat Pie Soup.
The soup was clear, not turbid at all. There wasn't much oil on the soup, and in addition to Tremella, there was actually some lily added to it.
"Aunt Zhang, Yan Zhao and I took you here to take care of you in your old age."
This soup must have taken a lot of effort to make. Look at the breakfast that Zhang Ma brought out. There was not only porridge, but also fried noodles. But to avoid wasting food, the portions were small. Ruan Mingfu couldn't believe how early Zhang Ma had to get up to make such a breakfast.
"Mingfu is right," Xie Yanzhao nodded, "You can just stay here with peace of mind. You don't have to worry about anything."
"That won't do. My old bones need to move," Zhang Ma sighed, looking at Xie Yanzhao with eyes so gentle that they could drip water. "When you have a baby, I will go over to take care of it."
"cough!"
A deafening cough was heard, and Xie Yanzhao quickly put down his chopsticks and ran over to pat her on the back.
"Are you okay?"
Ruan Mingfu took a deep breath and finally suppressed the discomfort in her throat.
She waved her hands, "…It's okay."
Wow, there are birthing teams everywhere.
Ruan Mingfu was choked to tears, and her face was even paler after the tossing and turning just now. She sat on the chair like a flower hit by rain.
"Are you really alright?"
Xie Yanzhao's expression was still tense, and he was also anxious.
"Why don't we go to the hospital?"
"It's okay, I'm much better now," Ruan Ming took a deep breath, "You don't have to worry."
Aunt Zhang was obviously relieved.
"Great, great!"
"Be careful."
Ruan Mingfu: "..."
Damn, she was so wise in her life.
But to be honest, the soup that Zhang Ma stewed was really good. After drinking it, I felt warm all over.
During the meal, Xie Yan and Xie Ming also walked in from outside.
Similarly, when he entered the door, he couldn't help sneezing. Xie Yan sniffed his nose and walked over.
"I don't know what happened, the temperature dropped so quickly," she said, pulling her clothes closer, "and I woke up in the middle of the night because of the cold."
Ruan Mingfu: "..."
I really forgot about these two people.
"Are you all right? I'll give you another quilt tonight."
Xie Yan was very familiar, "No need, sister-in-law, Guan Jiu has sent it to me, don't worry about us."
"right."
Xie Ming sat aside and nodded in agreement.
Ruan Mingfu breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good."
Guan Jiu did a great job. I'll notify her brother to give him a raise later!
After all, he is the child of Xie Yanzhao's two uncles. If he freezes to death here, where can she go to compensate him?
After dinner, the car Lin Xiao called was parked right in front of the courtyard gate.
"It's cold today, so just stay home. There's no need to rush to buy anything," Xie Yanzhao stared at her, "wait until I come back."
"Got it, go away now."
Didn't you see that Xie Yan's teasing gaze almost saw through Ruan Mingfu?
The burning gaze was so intense that even someone as thick-skinned as Ruan Mingfu could hardly stand it.
Xie Yanzhao's heart ached: "...Then I'm leaving."
Ruan Mingfu waved her hand.
She felt a little disgusted. The man was really becoming more and more clingy.
After seeing the person off, Ruan Mingfu turned around and met Xie Yan's sparkling eyes.
Ruan Mingfu: "..."
She knew this kind of look... it was called gossip.
Ruan Mingfu turned around and ran, and Xie Yan quickly chased after her.
"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, how did you get to know my eldest brother..."
Ruan Mingfu thought the sky would continue to be gloomy, but unexpectedly it cleared up the next day. She took off her thick cotton jacket and put on a lighter coat.
The exchange meeting lasted for several days, but the dog man was still taken away by a car early in the morning.
Ruan Mingfu had a rare moment of leisure, so she made a list and was about to go shopping, but she didn't expect Guan Jiu to directly transport the things over by car.
"Comrade Ruan, this is what I prepared for you."
As a full-time housekeeper, he must think what his boss wants. Guan Jiu knew that Ruan Mingfu would leave the capital in the next few days, so he bought several portions of all the famous snacks in the capital. Fortunately, he is still a foreign guest, so it is much more convenient for him to buy things than ordinary people.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to gather so many things.
Ruan Mingfu looked at these things with shining eyes.
She had the things to send to Mr. and Mrs. Ruan, and to show off to Gu Yilin!
Thinking of that jerk Gu Yilin, Ruan Mingfu's face fell. Knowing that she had told Bai Qingnian her address, Gu Yilin even wrote a letter to scold her.
snort!
Ruan Mingfu was not convinced.
If this guy hadn't seduced the boy's heart, he wouldn't have come to his house!
