I trade in both worlds

Village Chief Yang also seemed a little embarrassed when he heard this.

He didn't want to come this time, but Yang Erzhu was the most promising one in the entire Yang family, and he didn't want to offend Yang Erzhu, so he had no choice but to go.

He sighed and said, "I know this is difficult, but the child is the blood of the Yang family after all. Yang Erzhu can't have children now, and it's a bit unreasonable for him not to let his only son go back."

"You Xu family are all reasonable people. Can you find a compromise?"

Xu Xu's sneer in her heart became even stronger when she heard this. She said calmly, "A compromise? Village Chief Yang, can you tell me what the compromise is?"

Village Chief Yang pondered for a moment and said, "Look, can you let the child go back and forth between the two families? He will be considered the blood of the Yang family and the child of the Xu family. This way, Yang Erzhu will have a wish, and your Xu family will have an extra helper."

Hearing this, Xu Xu became more determined.

She said coldly, "Village Chief Yang, what you said is wrong. My son changed his surname to Xu ten years ago and entered the Xu family tree. He is already a child of the Xu family."

"His last name is Xu, not Yang. Besides, our Xu family never needs any help. We just want our family to live in harmony and happiness."

The clan leader also nodded and said, "Village Chief Yang, there is no room for negotiation on this matter. Xu Qiwei is our Xu family's child, and we will not let him leave the Xu family. If you, the Yang family, really want a child, then let Yang Erzhu's daughter find a live-in son-in-law."

After hearing this, Village Chief Yang realized that it would be useless to continue talking.

He sighed, stood up and said goodbye: "Alas, I also know that this matter is difficult to handle. Since you insist so much, I have no choice but to go back and talk to Yang Lao San. I hope you can reconsider it. After all, the child is innocent."

After saying that, Village Chief Yang turned around and left the Xu family.

Xu Xu looked at Yang Cunchang's receding back, feeling both relieved and worried.

Fortunately, the clan leader and second uncle both stood on her side and supported her.

What is worrying is that Yang Erzhu and Xiao Xiangxiang will not give up.

After Village Chief Yang left, Xu Jizong suddenly turned to look at Xu Xu, with a reproachful look in his eyes: "Xu Xu, why didn't you tell me about such a big thing? Do you think your second uncle can't help you, so you didn't tell me?"

There was a hint of severity in his tone, but more of concern and worry.

Hearing this, Xu Xu stood up quickly, twisting the corners of her clothes with her hands, and explained: "Second Uncle, when we first heard the news, we were only concerned about finding out whether it was true or not, and we were worried that you would worry about us, so we didn't tell you. Don't be angry, we really didn't mean to hide it from you."

Xu Jizong looked at Xu Xu's aggrieved yet strong appearance, and the blame in his heart instantly disappeared, replaced by full of pity.

He sighed, and his tone softened a lot: "Xuxu, Second Uncle knows that it's not easy for you. It's just that you should discuss such a big thing with Second Uncle. Although Second Uncle doesn't have much ability, he can always help you with some ideas."

Hearing this, Xu Xu's eyes couldn't help but become moist.

She nodded, her voice choking with sobs: "Uncle, I understand. If there is anything in the future, I will tell you as soon as possible. Thank you and Grandpa for always supporting us. Without you, we might have collapsed a long time ago."

The clan leader also patted Xu Xu's shoulder and said, "Xu Xu, don't worry. With our Xu family here, no one will bully you. If the Yang family dares to cause trouble, our Xu family will be the first to disagree."

Xu Jizong was filled with worry. He looked at Xu Xu and asked, "Xu Xu, what are your plans? What are you going to do next?"

Xu Xu said firmly: "I will not give the child to them."

Xu Jizong nodded: "That's for sure. But, do you have any specific plans for the future? You can't just sit there and wait for them to make trouble."

Xu Xu was silent for a moment, and said helplessly: "I... I haven't thought about it yet. But I will never let Weiwei and Tiantian get hurt."

The patriarch opened his mouth to say something, but in the end he said nothing. He just sighed, his eyes full of worry.

Xu Jizong looked at Xu Xu worriedly, and said in a serious tone: "Looking at the situation over there, people may come to you more and more. You have to be prepared."

Xu Xu nodded, looking serious: "I know that too. If it really doesn't work, we can hide away for a few days and come back after the storm has passed."

However, the clan leader shook his head, his tone revealing a bit of helplessness: "This won't solve the fundamental problem. You can hide on the first day, but you can't hide on the fifteenth day. Since the Yang family has already set their sights on Weiwei, they will not give up easily. Hiding will only make them more unscrupulous."

Xu Jizong also agreed: "Yes, hiding is not a solution. We have to think of a foolproof plan."

The clan leader hesitated for a moment and said, "I have checked with Liu Shenzhi. Yang Erzhu's wife is not a good person. What I am most afraid of now is that she wants to stop Yang Erzhu from taking Weiwei back, but she doesn't want to have a conflict with Yang Erzhu, so she will do something extreme in private. You have to be careful of her."

"I'm worried about this too. I'm afraid she will kill Weiwei." Xu Xu said worriedly.

Xiao Xiangxiang, that woman, is cruel and ruthless, she can do anything.

Xu Jizong also frowned, looking at the twins sitting quietly beside him, and became even more worried: "How about Xu Xu, you move in with me? At least I can take care of you."

A few years ago, in order to divide the property between his two sons, he bought two adjacent residential plots and built a large courtyard on each of them.

Today, the old house has been demolished and rebuilt into three blue brick houses, where he and his wife live. Although it is not spacious, Xu Xu's family can still live there if they squeeze in.

Xu Xu shook his head gently and said, "Uncle, I understand your good intentions, but I can't do this. Once we move over, if something happens, it will implicate you. I can't let you take risks for me, and I can't let the entire Xu family fall into danger."

Living at home, at least there is a door to the modern world, which is her last escape route. If they live in Xu Jizong's house, they will lose this life-saving talisman.

More importantly, she couldn't let her second uncle's family suffer any harm because of her.

Xu Jin looked at his uncle's worried expression, stood up and said, "Uncle, we'll stay at home. If anything happens, just shout and everyone will hear us. They shouldn't dare to mess around in the village so blatantly."

Xu Jizong frowned upon hearing this, but he still couldn't help but worry. "But... I'm really worried about you guys facing this alone."
