Xie Jia was immediately dissatisfied: "Brother, what do you mean by this? Are you doubting my judgment? Pei Rong was just worried about me, so he went to ask Xie Xiu. What did he do wrong?

He was born handsome and when he passed the imperial examination, many wealthy businessmen wanted to marry their daughters to him, but he looked down on the daughters of merchants who were obsessed with money.

When he passes the imperial examination, there will surely be many powerful people in the capital who would like to marry him. What's wrong with me being with him? He doesn't even look down on the daughters of merchants, he's much better than my father!"

"Shut up!" Xie Yi couldn't bear to listen any longer and shouted, "Don't say these words again when we get to Duke Cheng'en's mansion!"

He glared at Xie Xin again and warned him not to talk nonsense in Cheng'en Mansion.

Finally, the carriage arrived at Duke Cheng'en's Mansion.

When Duke Cheng'en and Chen Shou heard the news, their faces immediately turned very ugly.

Although he was dissatisfied, Duke Cheng'en still met with Xie Yi and the other two.

After the three of them finished their greetings and sat down, Xie Xin couldn't wait to start complaining, and Xie Jia added fuel to the fire.

Xie Yi saw this and couldn't help but feel a little dissatisfied and disappointed with the two of them.

When he was in the car, he clearly warned the two not to talk nonsense.

Now it seems that they did not listen to his words.

As Duke Cheng'en listened to the two people's exaggerated complaints, his face became increasingly unsightly.

When the two finally finished talking, he asked Xie Yi again: "Yier, do you have anything to say?"

Xie Yi made the addition calmly, not as excited as Xie Xin and Xie Jia.

Duke Cheng'en saw this and couldn't help but feel more satisfied with his grandson.

Although Chen Fang was only a concubine's daughter, she gave birth to a good son and raised him very well.

He stroked his beard and said, "I'll take care of it. Go see your grandmother and she'll arrange a place for you to stay."

Unexpectedly, Xie Jia suddenly asked, "Grandfather, can we go visit our uncle, the prince? I heard that something happened to him a few days ago and he has been recuperating at home recently. I am a little worried."

As soon as she said this, Duke Cheng'en's face instantly turned gloomy.

The three siblings saw this and their hearts began to sink: Lord Cheng'en's reaction was not a good sign.

Xie Jia asked cautiously, "Grandpa, is my uncle seriously ill?"

Duke Cheng'en's expression softened slightly. "Your uncle is indeed ill and shouldn't see anyone, or else his illness will spread. So, don't go see him for now. He'll see you when he recovers."

Xie Jia was horrified. "How could my uncle be so seriously ill? He can't even see anyone? Could he have contracted an epidemic?"

"Jia'er! Stop talking nonsense!" Xie Yi immediately scolded, "How dare you talk nonsense in front of Grandfather? Uncle is just unwell and can't see anyone. What does this have to do with the epidemic? Why don't you apologize to Grandfather now!"

Xie Jia was so frightened that her heart jumped. She quickly looked towards Cheng En Gong. Seeing that his face was extremely ugly, she became frightened belatedly. She knelt down and apologized quickly, not daring to talk nonsense anymore.

Xie Xin was also frightened and silent, and kept his mouth shut.

Duke Cheng'en then said calmly, "You are all grown up now, no longer children. You should be careful with your words and actions and know what to say and what not to say."

His words were light, but they were like a heavy hammer, hitting the hearts of the three people hard, making them even more afraid to act presumptuously.

Lord Cheng En waved his hand and said, "Don't be nervous. Just remember it and go see your grandmother."

The three of them bowed obediently, then retreated and were led to meet the wife of Duke Cheng'en.

After they left, Duke Cheng'en went directly to see Chen Shou.

Ever since Chen Shou fell ill, he had been feeling very bad. Now that Chen Fang had caused such trouble, how could he feel good?

Chen Shou had already heard about the arrival of Xie Yi and the other two. He was lying on the bed. When he saw Duke Cheng'en, he immediately asked, "What did they say to my father?"
