The three children picked up their things and walked out of the yard, waving at her.

Xia Wanniang watched them leave, turned back to the kitchen, took out tea leaves from the space to make tea, then took out some pastries, placed them on a tray, and carried them to the main room.

Xu Li and Yifeng looked at the young woman who suddenly appeared, their eyes widened, mainly because the woman was pretty.

But why did she appear in the Xiao family, and seemed to be married?

Xiao Chiye watched the two men sizing up Xia Wanniang, and reached out to pull her to sit next to him, blocking their inquiring gazes: "This is my wife, Xia Wanniang."

Xu Li got even angrier when he heard this, and grabbed Xiao Chiye's collar and said, "You bastard, I've been sad for you for three years, and I've burned paper for you every year on your death anniversary and Qingming Festival, and now you're telling me you're married."

A gossipy look immediately appeared on Xia Wanniang's face, and she glanced back and forth between the two of them.

Xu Li was good-looking. Because he was a scholar, he looked a little thin, but his facial features were handsome and delicate. If there was no Xiao Chiye for comparison, he would definitely be the dream lover of many women.

Xiao Chiye could see the gossipy spark in her eyes and pulled Xu Li's hand down: "Just talk, why are you touching me?"

Xu Li was so angry that he wanted to die: "Xiao Lao San, don't you feel guilty?"

Xia Wanniang moved closer to him and asked, "Did he let you down?"

Xu Li was stunned by her gossipy eyes and noticed something wrong in her eyes: "Well, he and I are friends who grew up together, but we are not as close as Long Yang."

Xia Wanniang looked at him with hope, then looked at her husband: "Really?"

Xiao Chiye felt that his wife had suspected him, and it seemed that he would not be able to take charge of the family tonight.

Xu Li nodded quickly: "Really, more real than pearls."

Xia Wanniang lost interest instantly. She thought she would get some great news about her husband, but to her surprise, there was nothing.

Xiao Chiye looked at the man with a lost face, and his anger rose even more. He looked at Xu Li as if he wanted to throw him out.

Xu Li pulled Yifeng over and stood in front of him: "Xiao, Xiao Lao San, you, what do you want to do?"

Xiao Chiye took a few deep breaths and finally suppressed his anger: "What on earth are you doing here today?"

"How dare you ask me? Shouldn't you give me an explanation?" Xu Li pushed the tool Yifeng away.

Yifeng was pushed and staggered. He stood aside and looked at his master with resentment.

Xiao Chiye picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea: "Ali, there are some things that knowing too much is not good for you."

"Bang!" Xu Li slapped the table and stood up: "We have known each other since we were young, sleeping in the same bed and bathing in the same tub. We suffered together when we got into trouble. Why are you telling me this now?"

Aunt Xiao glanced at Xu Li and Xiao Chiye and said, "When I get old, I tend to get sleepy easily. You young people can chat. I'm going to go back to my room and take a nap." After saying that, she stood up and prepared to leave.

"Mom, I'll take you there." Xia Wanniang said and prepared to get up and leave.

Aunt Xiao held her shoulders and said, "No need, I'll go back by myself, you young people can chat." After saying that, she walked out of the main room.

Xu Li calmed down at this time and sat back on the stool: "What happened three years ago?"

Xiao Chiye looked at Xu Li and didn't intend to speak: "Don't ask about this."

"Do you still consider me a brother?" Xu Li stared at Xiao Chiye.

Xiao Chiye put down the cup and looked at Yifeng: "Yifeng, go guard outside."

Yifeng nodded, walked out of the main room and stood in the middle of the yard.

Xia Wanniang smiled and said, "I'll go see what dishes are available at home. Master Xu should be home for dinner." After saying that, she prepared to get up.

Xiao Chiye held her hand and said, "You should listen to it too. I originally said that I would not hide it from you this time."

After hearing what he said, Xia Wanniang sat down calmly again, ready to listen to what he was going to say next.

Xiao Chiye looked at Xu Li: "Ali, are you sure you want to listen? Have you thought about your family's affairs?"
