The prince kneels every day. Has the princess forgiven him today?

If Ruo Xiwan had gotten angry and questioned them as soon as she arrived today, they would have felt better.

But she kept caring about Old Madam Xu.

Old Madam Xu seemed to let go of the breath she had been holding. She sat down on the chair without saying another word.

This silence made the Lan family despair.

The person who finally broke the deadlock was Xu Xiaoyong, his voice sounding a bit heavy. "It is indeed our fault in this matter. How do you think we should deal with it?"

Song Xiwan had already anticipated this, as most people in the Xu family were sensible.

Except for Xu Miaoyi and the Lan family, the two bad apples.

"After all, we are family, so we won't report it to the authorities. My cousin is determined to find a good marriage. I suggest that you arrange a marriage for her as soon as possible and send her away from Shangjing City. If she is willing, you can send her back to the countryside in Qinghe."

A clear and cold voice sounded slowly, with an irresistible spirit.

The faces of several people from the Xu family trembled.

No matter which choice she makes, Miaoyi can no longer stay in Shangjing City.

As a father, Xu Xiaoyong naturally has the power to make decisions and nodded heavily.

"it is good."

When the words fell, Lan's face was dejected.

She knew it was a done deal.

The next moment, Song Xiwan's cold eyes swept over, and Lan's heart suddenly tightened, and a chill rose from the soles of her feet.

"As for what my aunt did, as a junior, it's not convenient for me to interfere. I'll leave it to my grandmother to decide. However, I want the indentures of Linghua and her brother."

When these words were spoken, everyone in the room was surprised.

Including Linghua, she was also confused, and then her eyes became red.

She was extremely grateful to the princess for helping her to this point, but the princess also took her future situation into consideration and wanted to take her and her brother away from the Xu family.

They were just two servants, there was no way the Xu family would refuse.

Madam Xu made the decision, "Okay, I'll have someone get it for you."

Everything went smoothly.

Fortunately, Xiwan did not make any excessive demands and did not kill Miaoyi. What is there to be unhappy about?

When Song Xiwan got the indentures of Linghua and her brother, he asked someone to bring in Xu Miaoyi from the carriage.

Xu Miaoyi was imprisoned for several days and finally returned home. She burst into tears as soon as she saw her grandmother and others.

She trotted all the way to the front hall, opened her mouth and started crying, "Grandma, Dad, Mom, wuwuwu... Song Xiwan bullied me..."

"Snapped--"

Old Madam Xu slapped her in the face.

The atmosphere suddenly became quiet.

Xu Miaoyi had been angry for the past few days and had not eaten well, and Old Madam Xu was furious. She slapped her and made her fall to the side, and she did not recover for a long time.

Probably was frightened too.

Although her grandmother was strict, she never hit her since she was a child.

Madam Xu ordered with a cold look, "Take this evil creature away! Send her back to the countryside in Qinghe tomorrow and marry her off when you find a suitable husband."

Xu Miaoyi's body softened, her face filled with shock and despair.

Send her to the countryside and marry her off to a random husband?

She cried unwillingly and asked, "Grandma! How could you do this to me?!"

Seeing that she showed no remorse, Old Madam Xu angrily rebuked her, "You should ask yourself why you did such a disgrace to our family. It's a blessing that the princess didn't send you before the officials today, otherwise I would have expelled you from the family tree."

Xu Miaoyi couldn't hear a word.

She didn't understand why things turned out like this, she just wanted to fight for herself.

What's wrong with that!

If her aunt had helped her to arrange a marriage for the Second Young Master Qin from the beginning, she would not have taken such a risky move.

No, it would be better if Song Xiwan had not been found.

The more Xu Miaoyi thought about it, the more unbalanced she felt, and she looked at Song Xiwan with resentment in her eyes.

"It's all... Ugh!"

The rest of the words were covered up by the nanny beside Old Madam Xu, who forcibly dragged Xu Miaoyi away.

If you dare to say something rude again, the consequences will not be as simple as going back to the countryside!

Xu Miaoyi wanted to struggle, but her strength was no match for these maids who were used to doing rough work, and in the end she couldn't utter a word.

Until the figure disappeared.

Song Xiwan didn't linger any longer and said goodbye to Old Madam Xu. "Grandma, since the matter has been resolved, I will take my leave first. I will come to visit you next time."

Madam Xu was a little sleepy after all this trouble and nodded gently, "Okay."

But there is still a Lan family to deal with.

After Song Xiwan left, Madam Xu stared at Lan with a cold gaze and asked Xu Xiaoyong, "Your wife is so ignorant of right and wrong, and she has taught Miaoyi this way. She has violated the seven grounds for divorce. How do you want to deal with her?"

Lan's face turned completely pale, and she begged for mercy in panic, "Mother, I know I was wrong. Please don't let my husband divorce me. I will never make such a mistake again."

If she was divorced, she would never be able to hold her head up high in her life!

Mrs. Xu remained silent, waiting for her son's reply.

Xu Xiaoyong looked embarrassed.

Although his mother asked him how he wanted to deal with the matter and seemed to have given him the decision-making power, she actually still wanted him to divorce his wife, otherwise she would not have brought it up so suddenly.

but……

Xu Xiaoyong turned his head to look at Lan. Her hair had already become messy from begging for mercy so many times, and her face, which was full of traces of time, was covered with traces of tears.

We have been married for so many years, and he has been away from home because he has been away on the battlefield. How can you divorce him just like that?

He knelt down.

Ironically, he had knelt more times these days than he had served his parents in all these years.

He murmured softly, "Mother, you have taught me since I was little that I must be an upright person. You shoulder the responsibility of the entire Xu family. If a son is not taught well, it is the father's fault. How can I put all the blame on you now?"

There was helplessness in his voice.

Lan couldn't stop crying.

She couldn't tell whether she was feeling regretful or touched, but at least her husband didn't give up on her.

Madam Xu kept her face stern, waiting for him to continue.

No matter how you reason, it's useless. You have to give Xiwan an explanation for this matter!

Xu Xiaoyong also knew this. He closed his eyes and said solemnly, "Let's send her back to Qinghe. It's just right that she can have a companion for Miaoyi."

"Husband!"

Lan cried out in horror.

She didn't want to go back to her poor hometown of Qinghe. After waiting for too long, her title of Mrs. Xu would be just a decoration, not to mention the concubines waiting to take her place.

She doesn't want to!

However, the Lan family has no say.

Madam Xu was quite satisfied with this decision and said solemnly, "Since you still care about the bond between husband and wife, I will follow your lead. But let me be frank: if she dares to act recklessly again, she will never be allowed to set foot in the Xu Mansion again!"

"Yes."

Xu Xiaoyong agreed.

Lan knew that there was no chance of turning the situation around, and she was completely dazed, letting Xu Xiaoyong take her away.

Lan kept crying on the way back to the yard.

She didn't understand. "Why are you sending me back to the countryside in Qinghe just for a maid? You've been away at war for so many years, and my parents' health has been declining. I'm the only one running this household. Even if I haven't made any contributions, I've definitely worked hard!"
