After the marriage, the sick husband lived a long life

One day, Xu Wenyu was slapped twice by Old Lady Xu. She was a little angry, but thinking that the Xu family was still useful to her, Xu Wenyu could only endure it.

Xu Wenyu knelt on the ground and said sadly: "Mom, I know I was wrong. I shouldn't have treated my third brother like this."

"Why did you do this?"

"I'm just afraid that if my third brother is so outstanding, mother won't like me anymore." Xu Wenyu said aggrievedly.

That red and swollen face with such an expression really looks a bit pitiful.

Old Mrs. Xu looked at Xu Wenyu with a complicated expression, feeling a little mixed.

"Have I been bad to you all these years?" Old Mrs. Xu asked angrily.

"I know mother is very good to me, but I am not her biological child, I'm afraid..." Xu Wenyu said painfully.

With her hands out of sight of Old Lady Xu, she kept pinching herself, causing Xu Wenyu to cry in pain.

Seeing Xu Wenyu like this, Old Mrs. Xu also felt a little soft-hearted.

After all, this is the child that I raised with my love.

Xu Wenyu noticed the soft-hearted look on Old Lady Xu's face and sneered in her heart.

When this family is no longer useful, she will make them pay for what they have done.

Old Lady Xu didn't notice Xu Wenyu's expression. She looked at Xu Wenyu helplessly and said softly, "I know you have thoughts about me doting on your third brother, but your third brother is a scholar in our family. It will be good for both of you if he becomes an official."

Xu Wenyu sneered in her heart. Is Xu Laosan qualified to be an official with the appearance he has?

Being able to pass the imperial examination and become a scholar is already a great honor for your ancestors.

This Xu Laosan is still ambitious but lacks the ability to achieve his goals.

Although she thought so in her heart, Xu Wenyu still nodded obediently: "Mom, I know, I will never do this again. This time it's my fault, can you forgive me?"

Looking at Xu Wenyu's well-behaved appearance, Old Lady Xu said softly: "You are right to think so. After all, we are a family."

Xu Wenyu curled her lips, rolled her eyes secretly, and said obediently: "Mom, I know, I will never do this again."

Looking at Xu Wenyu's well-behaved appearance, Old Lady Xu nodded with satisfaction: "It's a good thing that you think this way."

"Yu'er's mother knows that you want to marry Xiao Yi, but Xiao Yi's mother is not an easy person to get along with. You'd better think it over carefully." Old Mrs. Xu said with a frown as she looked at Xu Wenyu.

Hearing what Old Lady Xu said, Xu Wenyu was immediately dissatisfied, but he did not show it: "Mom, I know, as long as I treat her as well as you treat me, I believe she will accept me."

Seeing Xu Wenyu like this, Old Lady Xu didn't say anything more: "No matter what, you should be careful."

Xu Wenyu nodded in response, already beginning to feel impatient.

After what happened just now, the two of them went from being angry and having disagreements to being a close mother and daughter.

Old Mrs. Xu didn't say anything about the action she took.

Xu Wenyu didn't mention this matter, as if it had never happened.

After coaxing Old Mrs. Xu, Xu Wenyu returned to the room and touched his beaten face with a gloomy expression.

She remembered these two slaps.

And there is Xu Zhiyan who is trying to sow discord between them. It is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge.

When she becomes the prime minister's wife, she will never let Xu Zhiyan go.

Xu Zhiyan didn’t know what Xu Wenyu was thinking. When she saw that the relationship between Old Lady Xu and Xu Wenyu had improved, Xu Zhiyan didn’t find it surprising.

Xu Peiran frowned as he watched the two people leave. After they left, he said to Xu Zhiyan beside him, "Yanyan is indeed just as you said. Xu Wenyu can really make Old Lady Xu let go of her dissatisfaction."

"I've already guessed it, so why should I worry about it?"

Xu Peiran looked at his sister in surprise, and asked in confusion: "Little sister, do you really not care?"

"If I can trick Xu Wenyu once, I can do it a second time. The reason why Old Lady Xu can forgive Xu Wenyu now is because our good Third Uncle is so kind." Xu Zhiyan's lips curled slightly.

Xu Zhiyan already knew that this matter would definitely not be that easy.

But considering someone like Xu Wenyu, she must hate Old Mrs. Xu to death now.

Those two slaps from Old Lady Xu were not something that could be easily abandoned.

Xu Wenyu would never give up targeting Xu Laosan just like that.

Chu Jinxiao, who was walking beside the two of them, said in a deep voice: "You are right, but you have to remember that Xu Wenyu is a person with a deep mind. She will definitely hate you for being tricked by you this time."

Xu Zhiyan chuckled, raised an eyebrow and said, "I just wanted to irritate Xu Wenyu on purpose."

Xu Peiran knocked Xu Zhiyan on the head and said unhappily, "Don't be so arrogant."

"I don't."

After saying that, Xu Zhiyan turned her gaze to Chu Jinxiao and asked curiously, "Shall we go to your house and take a look?"

"Okay." He hadn't visited her for several days and didn't know what the situation was like now.

The three of them went to Chu Jinxiao's house, and since it didn't look like anything special, they started digging the foundation.

Xu Peiran looked at the house and couldn't help but sighed: "It's fast that your house can be built before the New Year."

"Not in a hurry."

When the house was built on this side, a small courtyard with three rooms was built on the other side.

"This is..." Xu Peiran looked at the small courtyard that had been built and looked at Chu Jinxiao with some confusion.

"It will take some time to build the house, and I can't live in your house forever. Let's first build a small yard for Xingchen and I to live in." Chu Jinxiao explained simply.

Xu Peiran nodded in understanding, and then thought of something and said to Chu Jinxiao, "You two don't know how to cook, right?"

Chu Jinxiao nodded hesitantly. Neither he nor Xingchen knew how to cook.

Xingchen only knows how to grill meat, and he can only eat it.

Xu Zhiyan looked at Chu Jinxiao with a twitch in the corner of her mouth: "After that, you can eat at our house for a while. When your house is built, you will definitely hire people. Then you can buy a few chefs who can cook delicious meals."

"Then I'll trouble Yanyan. I can buy the ingredients."

"Then it's settled."

After taking a walk around the new house, the three of them went back.

Not long after returning, two people came: "Master."

Xu Zhiyan was startled by the two people who suddenly came over, and turned to ask Chu Jinxiao beside her: "Why did you call someone here?"

"Don't worry, I asked them to come here just to take Big Brother to Qingshan Academy. You can rest assured with their protection."

Xu Zhiyan nodded silently.

Chu Jinxiao was right. They were really worried about letting Xu Peiran go out alone.

At dinner time, Xu Shan and his wife knew that Chu Jinxiao's people had come to escort Xu Peiran to the academy. Xu Zhiyan's mother looked at Chu Jinxiao and said gratefully, "Jinxiao is too much trouble for you."

"You're welcome, Auntie. I'm causing you a lot of trouble here." Every day, Xu Zhiyan and her daughter would cook some soups for him to nourish his body.
