Wang Shaofu didn't come, and didn't even give an explanation.

The people sent by Mr. Wang to invite him didn't see him and were blocked outside the courtyard by his confidants from a long distance away.

When he came back to report, he knelt in the hall, shaking like a sieve, fearing that he would be punished again for his poor performance.

Old Master Wang stood upright, his dignity as the head of the family suffered a severe blow, but he was more frightened than angry.

He was shocked that this eldest son, who had always been well-behaved and polite, was so reckless that he disgraced his biological parents one after another for a lifeless corpse.

It seems that a rift has arisen between him and his family.

Even though Xie's death was caused by him and the family could not be blamed for it, the eldest son still did not care.

...as if all reason had gone out.

My biological mother fainted from shock, my biological father rushed over overnight after hearing the news, and several of my biological brothers were present, but under such circumstances, I couldn't invite Wang Shaofu.

Xie An Ning, who wanted to see the chaos in the Wang family, which had always been harmonious and regarded etiquette, benevolence and filial piety as family rules, felt very bored. He turned around and floated back to the main courtyard of the house.

Early the next morning.

Old Master Wang came in person, but the head of the family was blocked outside the courtyard by several of Wang Shaofu's guards.

Unexpectedly, there was no anger on his old face at being humiliated by his son. Instead, he looked haggard and frail.

He is a kind old man who is worried and anxious about his descendants.

Since he couldn't get in, Mr. Wang had no intention of forcing his way in.

Supported by his attendants, he sighed deeply and said, "Tell your master, Xie has been married into our Wang family for sixteen years. Apart from not having many children, she has never done anything wrong. No one in the family wants her to die. He shouldn't have disobeyed his mother so much because of Xie's death."

"Don't think his mother always criticizes Mrs. Xie harshly; that's out of her deep love. She's the most forgiving person. She cried countless times behind Mrs. Xie's back, and holding a funeral was already a forced act. But he came back and started shouting for violence and killing, skinning Mother Li alive. He's trying to force his mother to be buried with Mrs. Xie!"

"He wants to vent his anger. He has dealt with the Wang Er family as he should. If he still has any dissatisfaction, he can use his mother and I, two old bones, to die in apology to the Xie family."

At the end of his speech, Mr. Wang's eyes were filled with tears. He waved his hand and turned away tremblingly.

Everyone who witnessed this was moved.

A person who is in power in an aristocratic family and has been strong all his life is not lacking in the spirit of never giving up.

But in the end, he shed tears for his wife and children.

Behind the courtyard gate, Wang Shaofu stood under the sycamore tree, staring at his father's receding back, his hands hidden in his sleeves tightening inch by inch.

Xie Anning sat on the long railing next to him, holding his chin with his hand, watching the "torture trick" that Old Man Wang was performing as if he were reading a play.

I sighed inwardly that in this world, the father-son feud that I had risked my life to plan might never happen.

Based on her understanding of Wang Shaofu, his expression this time clearly showed that he was moved.

After all, he couldn't find any hidden secrets behind her death, so it was unreasonable for him to vent his anger on his own parents.

It was normal that he couldn't resist Mr. Wang's self-torture trick.

as predicted.

Three days later, the gate to the main courtyard of the house opened.

Wang Shaofu gave himself three days to accept the death of his first wife.

During these three days, he locked himself in the room, stayed with a corpse, and slept with it.

During these three days, his subordinates investigated the Wang family thoroughly.

There was not a trace of suspicion in the confessions of all the servants, including Peirong.

Xie Anning died of illness.
