After the marriage, the sick husband lived a long life

Xu Zhiyan looked at Chu Yuzhou in confusion, not quite understanding what Chu Yuzhou meant by that.

"In Mr. Xu's heart, his and Xu Qian's future is the most important. Knowing my identity, what else can Mr. Xu do?"

Shi Nanxing blinked, it seemed to be true when he said that.

“You’re right. If that’s the case, then Mr. Xu will look at Mrs. Xu.”

"You're right, but Mr. Xu is at home now. I don't know what this old lady will do when Mr. Xu is not at home."

Xu Zhiyan agreed with this matter very much. Old Mrs. Xu was used to being flattered.

Now, first he was hurt by Xu Wenyu, who had been pampered for a long time, and then something like this happened. Who knows what the outcome will be?

Before Mr. Xu got tired of her, Mrs. Xu could indeed show off at home, but that was before then.

Now that Old Lady Xu is the only one at home, who can she show off to?

Even if Mr. Xu comes back, would Mrs. Xu dare to say anything to him?

"Xu Mu and the others probably won't go back now." Xu Zhiyan said thoughtfully.

Chu Jinxiao didn't think there was anything wrong with this.

After all, no one wants to be treated coldly.

Xu Shan sat on the side listening to the two people talking, with a slightly dazed look in his eyes.

In the past, when there were many people living in the old house, Old Mrs. Xu was like the old lady of the old house.

Everyone in the family must listen to her. Since everyone in the family left, Mrs. Xu is alone.

From now on, no matter whether it is matters at home or in the fields, if Xu Mu doesn’t take care of it, Grandma Xu will have to do it herself.

I wonder how long Mrs. Xu can sustain this kind of life?

"Yanyan, you don't have to think too much. We won't go back." Xu Shan was worried that Xu Zhiyan thought they would go back, so he hurriedly explained.

Pointing at himself, Xu Zhiyan said helplessly: "Dad, I didn't say I was worried about these things."

"Dad is just telling you this. It would be best if you don't worry."

What Xu Zhiyan is most worried about now is Xu Wenyu.

This woman is not a good person.

"Don't worry about Xu Wenyu. This person will not have a good life in the Xiao family."

Xu Zhiyan looked at Chu Jinxiao curiously: "Why?"

Chu Jinxiao began to explain some things about the Xiao family to Xu Zhiyan.

When Xu Zhiyan heard that the Xiao family had so many problems, her mouth twitched and she said, "I really didn't expect it to be like this."

This Xiao's mother is also a talented person.

Didn't she think that the head of the Xiao family would feel guilty because she brought Xiao Yi to this small place?

Perhaps the head of the Xiao family will feel guilty for a while, but he will feel more guilty towards Xiao Yi. What does it have to do with Xiao's mother?

"The Xiao family's main team Xiao Yi should be pretty good these years, right?"

"That's true. Xiao Yi gets money from the head of the Xiao family almost every month, and he also receives letters from her. But Xiao's mother doesn't get any of that." From this, Xiao's mother should think carefully about why the head of the Xiao family doesn't want to be involved with her.

"This Xiao's mother really brought trouble upon herself." The other person clearly has someone he loves, yet she has to interfere.

Now that he is not being disciplined by the head of the Xiao family, he begins to resent the head of the Xiao family. This guy is really interesting.

"Now, Patriarch Xiao didn't divorce Mother Xiao because of Xiao Yi's face. Otherwise, Patriarch Xiao would have driven her away long ago for what Mother Xiao had done over the years."

Xu Zhiyan immediately became interested, looked at Chu Jinxiao with shining eyes and asked, "Tell me more about it."

Chu Jinxiao told Xu Zhiyan everything he knew.

Although Xiao's mother has been here for these years, she has done a lot.

To comfort the Second Madam, because Xiao's mother almost lost her child, the head of the Xiao family wanted to divorce her at that time, but he did not do anything for the sake of Xiao Yi's face. However, he withdrew some of the conveniences given to Xiao's mother's family.

Because of this, Xiao's mother had an argument with the head of the Xiao family.

In the end they broke up on bad terms.

The head of the Xiao family doesn't care about Xiao's mother's family.

He even conspired with others to plot against Xiao's mother's family, causing them to suffer heavy losses.

In addition to this, Xiao's mother also did a lot of disgusting things.

For example, he drugged the head of the Xiao family, drugged the old lady of the Xiao family, and also wanted to plot against the second lady to have an affair with the man he had been arrested for.

Xiao's mother did too many of these things.

There were so many that the head of the Xiao family imprisoned them here and did not allow Xiao's mother to go back.

This is also the reason why Xiao's mother has not returned for so many years.

Xiao Yi always felt that Xiao's mother was angry with the head of the Xiao family. In fact, it was because the head of the Xiao family had not allowed Xiao's mother to go back a long time ago.

It’s just that Xiao Yi doesn’t know.

Otherwise, Xiao's mother would have regretted taking the child back long ago.

Xu Zhiyan frowned and said speechlessly: "He deserves it."

"Of course he deserves it. Xiao's mother is a person who will do anything to achieve her goals. She has been watching Xiao Yi study all these years, with the goal of making Xiao Yi the top scholar, and then asking for a decree to confer a title on him, so that he can return home in glory."

Xu Zhiyan nodded in understanding. No wonder Xiao's mother was unwilling to let their family go. It turned out to be because of this.

Xu Shan frowned slightly, thinking about some things in the past.

"Now that I think of something," Xu Shan said softly.

Chu Jinxiao and the other person turned their eyes to Xu Shan, wanting to know what Xu Shan was thinking.

"I thought of something about the engagement you and Xiao Yi just made."

At that time, Xu Peiran had not been deprived of the opportunity to study.

"Dad, you mean..."

Xu Shan nodded, and his expression became somewhat serious.

"What's going on?" Chu Jinxiao was the only one who didn't know what was going on.

"My brother was a good student before Xiao Yi and I got engaged. But a few days after our engagement, people from the old house came to warn us and said they would not let my brother continue his studies no matter what." I hadn't thought of it before, but now I think it's such a coincidence.

Chu Jinxiao nodded in understanding: "It seems that all this was done by Xiao's mother."

Chu Jinxiao knew about 70% of Xu Peiran's abilities.

Xu Peiran and Xiao Yi are the same age.

If Xu Peiran continues to study, Xiao Yi will be better than Xu Peiran when taking the imperial examination in the future.

Therefore, the strong-willed mother Xiao chose this method.

This directly made it impossible for Xu Peiran to continue his studies.

Such thoughts are truly vicious.

It is unacceptable to deprive a person of the opportunity to study. If Xu Peiran had not gone to study, there would definitely be one less loyal and honest official in the court.

Fortunately, Xu Peiran's life has returned to normal.

As long as Xiao's mother doesn't continue to do stupid things, it will not be a problem for Xu Peiran to take part in the imperial examination smoothly.

"If it's Xiao's mother, then we have to be more careful."

"Now our two families have no relationship, so there is no reason for her to come to us."

Chu Jinxiao felt that Xu Shan was too naive to say such things.

"Uncle Xu, it's better to be safe than sorry. We should be on guard. Otherwise, it will be troublesome if they do something to Pei Ran."

Xu Shan thought about it and felt that what Chu Jinxiao said was right, so he nodded in agreement: "I'll listen to you."
