The evil mother-in-law does not whitewash, she only abuses her children

Gu Baishuang sat steadily with no intention of getting up.

Nie Xiaofeng's words wiped out Gu Baishuang's joy of being reunited with her younger brother Gu Dahan.

At this moment she was quite disappointed with her youngest son.

Nie Xiaofeng saw how her two step-sons and daughter-in-law forced her. Only three years have passed, and her youngest son actually seemed to forgive them.

He recognized Nie Mingyuan, and Gu Baishuang also recognized him. After all, the father-son relationship could not be abandoned.

But he didn't mind what his two brothers and sisters-in-law did at all and welcomed them to his house. Gu Baishuang felt that Nie Xiaofeng had stabbed her in the back and felt very disappointed.

Gu Baishuang said, "Your Nie family is reunited today, and so are our Gu family. You with the surname Nie can go back, and I with the surname Gu will naturally stay here."

Nie Xiaofeng opened his mouth.

How could my mother exclude herself from the Nie family? She is the married daughter of the Gu family and the mistress of the Nie family.

If you count, she should be a member of the Nie family.

Tong Huaqiong glanced at Nie Xiaofeng and could tell at a glance that Nie Xiaofeng could not empathize with Gu Baishuang.

Come to think of it, after all, Nie Mingyuan treated his son Nie Xiaofeng quite well in the past.

Later, even when Nie Xiaofeng asked Gu Baishuang for the right to run the shop and the two stepsons wanted to divide the property, he was too young to understand the underlying intentions. At the time, he simply saw that Gu Baishuang was feeling wronged and naturally sided with her.

As for what kind of grievances Gu Baishuang had suffered and how deep they were, he could not feel them.

For Nie Xiaofeng, past disputes were nothing more than internal family conflicts. As long as they maintained superficial peace, they could still be a loving family.

What's more, he didn't have a God's perspective and didn't know that Nie Mingyuan later left all his property to his two sons, nor did he see that his two half-brothers forced him and Gu Baishuang to leave the Nie family in front of Nie Mingyuan's mourning hall.

Gu Baishuang was sitting and Nie Xiaofeng was standing, and the mother and son were in a stalemate.

Tong Huaqiong said to Nie Xiaofeng, "Xiaofeng, go back and see your father first. Your mother can have dinner with me before you leave."

Nie Xiaofeng has always respected Tong Huaqiong. Once Tong Huaqiong speaks, he dare not disobey.

But this time...

"Grandma, I haven't seen my parents for a long time." Nie Xiaofeng said.

Gu Dashu put on a sullen expression and said, "You know you haven't seen your parents in a long time. Why didn't your father ask about your mother's condition when he saw you? Instead, he rushed to your general's mansion."

Gu Dashu and Nie Xiaofeng went out of the city together to welcome Gu Dahan and others.

Nie Mingyuan and his two sons and daughters-in-law praised Nie Xiaofeng, who was dressed as a deputy general, to the skies, but they did not mention Gu Baishuang at all.

"Your two brothers and sister-in-law are not good people. They flatter you with a few words and then put you on the line of family affection. You treat them as family, but they treat you as a scapegoat. They might even plot against your general's mansion. You should be more careful. You think they care about you now because of you, but it's because of your position as deputy general."

Gu Dashu shook his head.

Nie Xiaofeng usually looks like a smart person, so why is he so confused about this matter?

Could it be that I'm too eager for family affection?

Gu Baishuang and his family also gave him a lot of love.

People cannot teach others, but things can teach people once.

Sooner or later, Nie Xiaofeng will fall into trouble because of the Nie family.

Nie Xiaofeng said, "Second uncle, my father was so happy to see me that he didn't have time to ask about Mom."

Nie Xiaofeng saved Nie Mingyuan's face.

"As for my two brothers plotting against my general's mansion, my second uncle is worrying too much. Being a deputy general is not a silver coin, it's just a title, you can't plot against it." Nie Xiaofeng said.

The two brothers were not born to their mother, so naturally they would not be as filial to her as he was, nor would they be as open-hearted to him as brothers who had the same mother and father.

This is due to human nature.

But if they were plotting against his general's mansion, Nie Xiaofeng felt that his second uncle was worrying too much.

Four years ago, he had an argument with his father and two brothers over his mother.

They did do some things wrong, but living under the same roof as a family is bound to have some bumps and bruises. As long as they are willing to live in peace with him and as long as his two brothers and sisters-in-law treat their mother well, he doesn't mind letting go of the grudge.

After these words were spoken, even Tong Huaqiong was speechless.

Even if they cannot take over the general's mansion, they can live there and rely on their status as General Nie's men to bully others.

If both his brother and sister-in-law's families were to rely on the general's mansion for their livelihood, who would dare to find a wife for Nie Xiaofeng? Once he married in, he would be pressured by his two sisters-in-law. Who would be the head of the family? Who would have the final say?

Tong Huaqiong felt that Nie Xiaofeng's considerations were too simple.

Gu Dashu said, "Okay, okay, it's my fault for being too talkative. Then just let them live in your general's mansion."

Nie Xiaofeng begged Gu Baishuang with his eyes to go back with him.

Gu Baishuang remained indifferent.

Tong Huaqiong said, "Xiaofeng, aren't you usually very filial? Filial piety doesn't mean imposing your own ideas on your mother, but respecting her opinions. Your mother is just staying home to have a reunion dinner with your uncle. It's not like she's not going back to the Nie family. Why are you so anxious? Listen to me and go back first. Your father just arrived at your house and isn't familiar with anything. Shouldn't you go back and settle him down as soon as possible?"

Nie Xiaofeng thought about it and realized that since it was his father’s first time visiting his house, he was not familiar with anything, so he really had to go back and explain things.

Besides, he and his father haven't seen each other for three or four years, so they have a lot to talk about.

Nie Xiaofeng said to Gu Baishuang respectfully, "Okay, Mom, you can stay at grandma's house and have the reunion dinner with your uncle first. I'll go back for now, and I'll send someone to pick you up after you finish your meal."

Gu Baishuang said, "I have a carriage, I can go back by myself."

Nie Xiaofeng was a little hurt by Gu Baishuang's coldness.

Thinking that Nie Mingyuan had just arrived and must be waiting anxiously in the mansion, Nie Xiaofeng left Tong Huaqiong's place.

As soon as Nie Xiaofeng left, Gu Dahan couldn't help but say, "How come Xiaofeng has become confused now that he's become the deputy general?"

Gu Baishuang sneered, "He thinks he's the deputy general, and that his father and two brothers will depend on him in the future. He's confident he can control the situation, so he's already showing forgiveness. He doesn't even consider that Nie Mingyuan and his two beloved sons never believe they've done anything wrong. They don't need forgiveness at all, and they're here to stay at the deputy general's mansion with a clear conscience."

Tong Huaqiong nodded.

I have to say that Gu Baishuang sees things very clearly.

Nie Mingyuan and his two sons never felt guilty towards either Gu Baishuang or Nie Xiaofeng.

Nor would they think that forcing Gu Baishuang to hand over the management rights of the shop and demanding that the majority of the family property be divided among them was unreasonable greed.

Not only did he not feel that he was unreasonably greedy, but he felt that Gu Baishuang and Nie Xiaofeng were supported by the Nie family.

They can enjoy the credit of Nie Xiaofeng with a clear conscience.

They came into the mansion not to rely on Nie Xiaofeng, but to pick fruit.

Just as Gu Dashu said, it was easy for Nie Xiaofeng to welcome them into the mansion, but it would be difficult to drive them out once their wolfish ambitions were exposed.
