Marrying Wife and Concubine Together: After Rebirth, I Remarried the Scumbag's Father on the Sp

He took Zhan Qingning's wrist first and said, "Come on, let's wait in the yard!"

The two stepped into the sunlight, and only then did they feel that the stifling feeling disappear.

Zhan Qingning tentatively asked, "Young Master, is your cousin the one who was bothering you yesterday?"

Xie Jianshu nodded: "I really don't know why she took a liking to me. My mother had already rejected her, but she still got my grandmother involved. She's so despicable!"

Zhan Qingning pondered: "Your maternal grandmother is currently claiming illness. If she uses her dying wish to pressure you, your mother really won't be able to refuse. Otherwise, she and you will be branded as unfilial!"

Sure enough, as soon as she finished speaking, Madam Xie's accusing voice came from inside the room: "You unfilial daughter, are you trying to anger this old woman to death?"

Xie Jianshu's expression changed drastically, and he immediately rushed into the house.

He asked anxiously, "Mother? What happened?"

Upon seeing him, Madam Xie immediately said, "Jianshu, you've come at the right time. Now that you have an official position and are favored by the Emperor, you must not forget the Xie family's kindness in helping you. Your eldest uncle and aunt have done a great deal for you, so you must not be ungrateful!"

Xie Jianshu retorted, "What are you saying, Grandmother? When my eldest uncle was drunk and caused trouble and was imprisoned, wasn't it my mother who rescued him? Isn't it only natural for family members to help each other? Talking about gratitude is just going too far."

Madam Xie felt a lump in her throat. She never expected that after not seeing him for several years, this young man would become so eloquent.

She said with dissatisfaction, "Stop trying to fool me with these sweet words. I'm about to die. I only have one question for you: do you agree to let me marry Rongrong as my concubine?"

Xie Jianshu refused without hesitation: "I disagree!"

Old Madam Xie's eyes widened suddenly, and after a moment she shouted hoarsely, "Help! My unfilial daughter and unfilial grandson are going to drive this old woman to her death! I'll risk my life to tell the world!"

After saying that, she forced herself to get out of bed.

Madam Xie quickly stopped her, saying, "Mother, please don't be like this. Jianshu and Rumei didn't mean to upset you. Don't be impulsive!"

After she finished speaking, she looked at Xie Ru and said, "Quickly say something nice to her. She's already feeling unwell. Do you really want to anger her to death?"

Xie Ru slowly said, "I can agree to anything else, but I don't agree to Xie Rongrong marrying Jianshu. If she wants to spread it around, then let her go ahead. I will not stop her!"

After uttering those harsh words, she turned and walked outside.

Madam Xie's cloudy eyes darted around before finally settling on Zhan Qingning. She gritted her teeth and scolded, "Jianshu's wife, what are you standing there for? Are you really going to just stand by and watch your mother-in-law and husband be stigmatized?"

Zhan Qingning replied blankly and innocently, "Madam, I will listen to my husband. Whatever decision he makes, I will support him!"

Madam Xie was so angry she almost fainted. If Xie Jianshu could agree, why would she need to ask her?

Seeing that the three of them had all gone outside, she felt a little embarrassed.

She didn't expect Xie Ru to be so determined not to accept Xie Rongrong, even if it meant bearing the stigma of being unfilial.

This is a bit difficult!

Madam Xie said in a low voice, "Mother, what should we do? If you really go to the street and shout, then we will completely break ties with her. She is now a member of the royal family!"

Madam Xie frowned and looked at her: "Of course I won't go. I just said it to scare her. It would be best if I could scare her. If she doesn't compromise, then I'll have to think of other ways!"

Madam Xie said helplessly, "What other way is there? She looks like a dead pig that doesn't care about boiling water, she probably won't care about anything!"

Madam Xie sneered: "No one knows a daughter better than her mother. Since I was able to give birth to her, I have ways to control her. I'll pretend to faint now, and you'll cry and call for a doctor. You'll accuse Xie Jianshu of making me faint. I don't believe she doesn't care about the reputation of her son and daughter-in-law!"

Madam Xie nodded hurriedly: "Yes, daughter-in-law knows what to do!"

Madam Xie closed her eyes and pretended to faint.

Madam Xie cried out hoarsely, "Mother, how are you? Someone, quickly go and fetch Doctor Liu, hurry!"

Before long, Doctor Liu arrived in a hurry.

He spoke with a grave expression: "The old lady was already in poor health, and now that she's been upset, it's gotten even worse. Madam, didn't I tell you not to provoke her any further? Why didn't you listen?"

Madam Xie protested, feeling wronged: "It wasn't me, it was Xie Jianshu. He's the one who made our old lady faint from anger!"

Xie Ru angrily rebuked, "You're talking nonsense! What does this have to do with my son? Do you believe I'll tear your mouth apart?"

Madam Xie stubbornly argued, "How can it not be related? If he agrees to the old lady's suggestion, wouldn't everyone be happy? It's all his fault, and his newlywed wife too. Those two brats are deliberately trying to anger our old lady!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Xie Ru rushed over and slapped her nose hard, causing her to bleed from her mouth and nose.

She cried out, "You dare hit me! You crazy woman! No wonder no one wants you; you're so insane!"

Xie Ru was filled with resentment, and she slapped Madam Xie several more times.

Grandpa Xie couldn't stand it and immediately stepped forward to stop him.

Xie Jianshu immediately grabbed him around the waist and said, "Uncle, don't interfere. Aunt got beaten up because she brought it on herself!"

Zhan Qingning went over to break up the fight, but she took sides, secretly twisting Xie Da Madam's waist with her hands, causing her to howl in pain.

For a moment, the room was filled with shouts and howls, creating quite a commotion.

How could Madam Xie continue to feign unconsciousness? She was afraid that if she kept pretending, the house would have to be demolished.

She immediately opened her eyes and woke up, angrily shouting, "Stop it, all of you!"

Madam Xie, her face covered in blood from the beating, rushed to her mother to complain: "Mother, you must stand up for me! Xie Ru and her daughter-in-law have smeared my face! Waaah, it hurts so much!"

Madam Xie couldn't bear to look at her; her hair was disheveled, and she looked completely unrecognizable.

She said helplessly, "Xie Ru, how could you beat your sister-in-law like this? You should apologize to her right now!"

Xie Ru sneered: "Why should I apologize to her? She was the one who first smeared my son, saying that he angered you to death. If that's the case, then I want to ask, when I was suffering in the Wang family, why didn't you come to my rescue? If you had lent a helping hand, I wouldn't have almost died of illness!"

Madam Xie argued, "Xie Ru, you have no conscience to say that. You relied on the dowry we gave you to help the Wang family get ennobled. It's because you were blind and married the wrong person. How can you blame us?"
