Now that we've moved in, they're incredibly happy. Besides, that house was originally rented to my parents by my husband, so it's barely his house. Even if we move in, he wouldn't be considered a son-in-law, so you don't have to feel ashamed."

Xie Yun choked instantly.

He could scold Xie Xiu because Xie Xiu was his biological son, but Tu Jiaojiao was only his daughter-in-law and had just arrived in the capital not long ago.

If he scolded her, it would not sound good if it got out.

So he could only frown and remain silent, secretly thinking about how to refute.

Before he could think of anything, Tu Jiaojiao said again, "By the way, father-in-law, you may have forgotten that the villa you gave me is close to the outer city and is quite remote.

I am not saying this because I dislike that courtyard. It is because my husband is going to the Imperial College and Tang'er is going to a private school. The courtyard is too far away and it is inconvenient to travel between them.

At first, my husband also wanted to move there, but after he went there to take a look, he found that the villa was really too far away. It would take more than an hour just to go back and forth.

We didn't dare to stay in the house any longer for fear of making my grandmother angry, and my father-in-law was in a dilemma, so we had no choice but to move in with my parents.

We also hope to be closer, so that whether my husband goes to the Imperial College or Tang'er goes to the private school, they don't have to walk too far and the journey will be safer."

Xie Yun's face darkened: "..."

Since Tu Jiaojiao said this, what else could he say?

Thinking of the villa he had personally given away, he could only sulk in his heart.

Just at this moment, the old lady came.

As soon as she saw Xie Xiu and Tu Jiaojiao, she was furious and yelled, "Didn't you move out? Why are you back? Are you going to kill everyone in the mansion before you stop?"

If it weren't for you, how could my son be stabbed? Get out! Get out now! You are not welcome in the Xie Mansion! From now on, no one of you is allowed to come back without my permission! "

Tu Jiaojiao's face instantly darkened with anger. She retorted dissatisfiedly, "Grandma! My father-in-law's incident happened after we moved out. We weren't at the mansion. How can you blame us for him being stabbed?"

Xie Xiu gently pulled her aside and said with a hurt look on his face, "Forget it. Grandma is old, and we, as the younger generation, just listen to her. Since Grandma doesn't like it, we will leave now."

After that, he said to Xie Yun, "Jiao Niang and I will go back first. I hope father can take good care of his injuries and recover as soon as possible."

After making all the necessary gestures, he pulled Tu Jiaojiao out.

Who knew that even from a distance, I could still hear the old lady's angry scolding: "From now on, without my order, no one in the mansion is allowed to open the door for them, let alone let them in. Do you hear me?"

Xie Xiu raised the corner of his mouth slightly and sneered sarcastically.

Do you really think he is willing to come back?

If this wasn't the emperor's territory, and he didn't want to be branded as disobedient and unfilial, he wouldn't bother coming back to be scolded.

As soon as the two of them left Xie's house and got into the carriage, Tu Jiaojiao immediately said indignantly, "I think that old woman is really confused!

The old man's stroke was clearly caused by Xie Xin, but he blames us. If we can't distinguish right from wrong, we might faint from Xie Xin's anger one day!"

"Do you think she doesn't know? She knows it all too well. The Chen family has a queen, and even if she's not favored, no one can shake her position.

Unlike my maternal grandparents, who were just merchants and had been wiped out long ago, she couldn't support me, nor could she become a force for the Xie family. Naturally, she would choose the Chen family.

What's more, she was superstitious to begin with, and now that she was older, she believed in these ghostly things even more. Chen Fang's accusation that Yingying was evil really hit her sore spot.

She had witnessed the old man suffer a stroke from Xie Xin's anger, so she naturally worried that she would be killed one day.

Tu Jiaojiao snorted angrily, "So she's just an old lady who only cares about profit and bullies the weak! Since she won't let us go to Xie's house, we don't have to go there anymore.
