Xie Xiu's expression instantly changed after hearing this, and even his tone of voice changed. "What did you say? Your father-in-law and mother-in-law are here too? Why did they follow us?"

Xie Xiu said cautiously, "The child is too young, they are worried, so they came to check on him."

"Then why didn't you say so earlier?" Xie Yun growled angrily, and quickly turned the carriage around to go to the inn to pick people up first!

Although the other party was just a small landlord in the countryside, he couldn't afford to lose face in front of him!

So the two of them went to the inn first. Xie Yun met Tu Yong and Liu Zhichun in person, said a lot of nice things to them, and then took Tu Jiaojiao and others back to Xie Mansion.

At the Xie residence, Bai Yuzhu was still lying on the chaise longue with a gloomy face. Although Xie Xiu had been gone for a long time, she still felt uneasy.

She worriedly ordered the maid: "Go and ask if that person has come back."

The maid immediately took the order and left.

Not long after, he suddenly ran back with a panicked look on his face: "Young Madam, this is bad! The master has personally brought those people into the mansion!"

"What!" Bai Yuzhu sat up straight with a look of panic on her face. "Hurry... hurry and get the Second Young Master!"

Not only did Bai Yuzhu know that Xie Yun personally brought Xie Xiu's family into the mansion, but Chen Fang, who was recuperating in bed, also knew about it.

When she heard the news, her face instantly darkened: "He is quite resourceful. He just returned to Beijing and he has already come to find the master!"

The maidservant beside her quickly advised her, "Madam, why bother with those villains? Recovering from your illness is more important! Even if he comes back, what will happen? He wasted so many years in the countryside, and even married a village girl. What future can he have?"

As she spoke, she rubbed Chen Fang's chest to help her calm down.

Then she poured Chen Fang a cup of health tea and fed her carefully while continuing, "If I were to say, there's no need for you to waste your time on that kind of person.

He is completely useless and is not even as good as the second young master, let alone being compared with the third and fourth young masters born to the lady?

The third and fourth young masters are both outstanding people. They will definitely be able to pass the imperial examination and find virtuous wives.

By then, that person will be worlds apart from the two young masters. Such a person would have already been reduced to mud on the ground, so why should Madam care about him?

Chen Fang had a gloomy face and didn't say anything. She didn't want to take Xie Xiu to heart, but when that bitch Luo Sheng died, Xie Xiu was already five years old.

She would never forget the look Xie Xiu gave her when she married into the Xie Mansion.

That kind of hateful look would never be possessed by an ignorant child.

Xie Xiu definitely knows something!

She would always feel uneasy if she didn't get rid of him.

Back then, he was still a little kid, so it would have been easy to clean up. Unfortunately, everyone advised her that if Xie Xiu died, it would inevitably lead to controversy.

In addition, there were two old men from the Xie family watching over her, so it was difficult for Xie Yun to fool them. She could only endure it and watch Xie Xiu grow up day by day.

Although he found an opportunity later, he escaped.

Xie Xiu had been hiding in the countryside these years and had not dared to show up, but now he suddenly came back.

How can she feel at ease?

Did he lose his memory and forget everything that happened, or did he feel that he had grown strong enough and wanted to come back to seek revenge on her?

The more Chen Fang thought about it, the more irritated she became. When she thought of Xie Jia who had eloped with someone and whose whereabouts were unknown, she became even more angry and felt uncomfortable all over!

She asked with a sullen face, "Where is the Second Young Master?"

The nanny whispered, "He should be in the study, but the master is back now, and the Second Young Master's wife should have someone invite him over."

Chen Fang couldn't help but sneer: "That's all she's capable of! What a fool! To do such a thing, does she really think the master is a fool?"

The nanny quickly advised her: "Madam, your health is more important. You know the Second Young Master's wife's temper, why get angry over such a small matter?"

Anyway, she has the Second Young Master to take care of her. Even if that person is dissatisfied, with the Second Young Master around, can he still bully the Second Young Master's wife?
