I kicked out my vicious husband and married his great-uncle
Chapter 422 Are you just a coward?
Madam Xie felt that cursing in the carriage was not enough, so she wanted to lift the curtain and stick her head out to curse.
Unfortunately, as soon as her hand touched the car curtain, she was held down by Xie Shaohang.
Madam Xie looked over, her eyes almost flaming with anger: "What are you doing? Others are insulting your mother, and you are just a coward?"
"Mother, please think carefully. If you go out and curse people like this, we won't be able to live here any longer."
"If I can't live here, then I can't live here. I don't care!"
"Please know, mother, that we are both penniless now and cannot return to the Xie residence. Apart from this place, there is no other place for us to go."
Madam Xie sneered and said disdainfully, "Impossible! Concubine Xian and I have a life-long friendship. I have helped her with so many things before, she will not ignore me. Now I just didn't go to her. If I had gone to her, she would have given me eight or ten houses!"
"Mother, the people on the streets are talking about your divorce. Tell me, how could Concubine Xian not know about this? She knew about it, but she didn't send anyone to look for you. Tell me, what does this mean?"
It’s not that Madam Xie had not thought of this possibility, she just... was unwilling to believe it.
At this moment, even though Xie Shaohang had exposed her, she still insisted: "She is too busy and just can't take care of me for the time being. Wait, she will remember me sooner or later."
Although Madam Xie said this with certainty, the hand that was holding the curtain eventually loosened.
Xie Shaohang did not expose her and let the carriage continue to move forward.
But the voices of discussion still continued.
"No way, this Madam Xie is already so old, how can she still be unfaithful to her husband?"
"Who says it's not true? Madam Cui cut off one of her ears. Have you heard about this?"
"I heard about it. Is there any other hidden story behind this matter?"
"Yes, of course. It is said that the reason why Madam Cui is so angry is because Madam Xie and Mr. Cui are having an affair."
"Ah? No way! I heard that these two were close friends before!"
"That's why it smells good when you steal it."
……
After hearing this, Madam Xie was so angry that she screamed and raged, but in the end, she didn't have the courage to lift the curtain of the car and go out to curse.
The carriage had not gone far when Xie Shaohang asked the driver to turn back.
Afterwards, he looked at Madam Xie, who looked crazy, and said slowly: "So, mother, holding this full moon banquet at the Liao family will not have any impact on the reputation of our Xie family's eldest branch. Because this reputation is already as bad as it can be."
"No, that's why you have to stop me. It doesn't matter if I have a bad reputation, but your reputation must not be damaged!"
Xie Shaohang laughed at himself: "Mother and son are connected, mother, how good can my reputation be?"
Madam Xie remained silent.
But after returning, she called Lin Xinrou over and bought Xie Shaohang a set of gorgeous clothes. Even the shoes were made of the finest pine brocade.
After dressing up like this, Xie Shaohang seemed to be the young man he used to be.
When he went to the Liao family, he even brought Lin Xinrou's two servants with him.
Watching Xie Shaohang leave, Zhou Sheng looked disdainful: "You're already living under someone else's roof, and you're still pretending."
"To appear in front of so many people, he naturally has to pretend. Especially, the guests of the Liao family are either rich or noble, how can he be willing to lose face in front of them?"
"You're so picky!" After complaining about Xie Shaohang, Zhou Sheng's eyes fell on Lin Xinrou's face, "Why do you indulge him so much?"
He could feel that Lin Xinrou looked down on Xie Shaohang from the bottom of her heart.
It's very strange that he looks down on others but never responds to Xie Shaohang's requests.
"What do you know?" Lin Xinrou chuckled and didn't want to say anything more.
Xie Shaohang attended the full moon banquet at chenshi.
But before noon, the person was sent back.
When he came back, he was drunk as a puddle.
You know, it’s not even noon yet and the banquet hasn’t started yet.
The people were sent back before the banquet even started. This is really unheard of!
The two servants who went with them quickly told what had happened that day.
It turned out that when Xie Shaohang went to the Liao family, he was taken directly to a small courtyard and was not allowed to see the guests of the Liao family at all.
Xie Shaohang was dressed so neatly today, naturally he was planning to meet guests. He refused and wanted to go out, but was stopped by people from the Liao family.
After that, the people from the Liao family served him some wine and food and never paid any attention to him again.
During this period, Liao Tongxia came with her children.
However, when Liao Tongxia came, the two servants were driven out, and the two servants had no idea what they said.
All we know is that after Liao Tongxia came out of the yard, Xie Shaohang went crazy.
Not only did he overturn all the food and drinks on the table, he also smashed everything in the room.
Afterwards, Xie Shaohang got drunk and vomited all over the place.
The people of the Liao family were very disgusted and asked the two servants to carry the person back.
After hearing this, Lin Xinrou looked at Xie Shaohang who was thrown in the yard and chuckled, "Go, quickly carry him to the room. It's so hot, don't let him get too hot."
When Xie Shaohang woke up again, he saw Lin Xinrou in a pink gauze dress sitting beside the bed, holding his hand and looking at him lovingly.
For a moment, Xie Shaohang was distracted: "Rou'er?"
Lin Xinrou rushed over and hugged him, saying emotionally: "Brother Shaohang, I really hope that when I wake up, you and I will still be the same as before. But now, so many things have happened, all this has become a luxury."
Xie Shaohang listened to Lin Xinrou's story with an expressionless face.
Until Lin Xinrou said, "Brother Shaohang, do you think we can go back to the way we were before?"
"In the past?" Xie Shaohang muttered these two words silently, his eyes looking a little dizzy.
Once upon a time, he had a lovely wife, beautiful concubines, a great future, and a bright future.
Things were so good in the past.
But now...
"Brother Shaohang, you still have talent. As long as you study hard, your future will be limitless."
"can you?"
"Of course not. Brother Shaohang, for Hong'er's sake, you have to cheer up. You are the hope of me and the child!"
At this moment, Xie Shaohang looked dazed as he met Lin Xinrou's eyes full of hope.
After so much time had passed, the way she looked at him was still as full of infinite admiration as before.
Such a look once fascinated him.
Now, he has nothing.
But the way she looked at him was still the same as before.
"Okay, I promise you." After a moment's silence, Xie Shaohang suddenly said.
"Brother Shaohang, you are so nice to me!" As she said that, Lin Xinrou rushed over and hugged Xie Shaohang.
Xie Shaohang was stunned for a moment, then reached out and hugged her.
After a while, Lin Xinrou let go of Xie Shaohang, raised her smiling face, and asked, "Brother Shaohang, can you marry me?"
