For several days, the servants of the Xu family were very cautious when entering and leaving. When the masters were unhappy, the lives of the servants below would be miserable, fearing that a single misstep would anger the masters and bring disaster upon them. Especially the servants in front of Grandma Xu, their lives were even more terrified.
Grandma Xu has been in a bad mood recently. Even when the Feng family came, she could only force a smile for a while, and it failed to arouse her interest at all.
Xu Huixian was quite unhappy about this. She had met her fiancé Feng Yuanqing, who was tall and handsome with regular features. However, her mother did not show any love for him, which made her very dissatisfied. She did not know what was wrong with her mother, so she just sulked at her mother.
Grandma Xu was very upset.
It’s not that she doesn’t love her daughter. In fact, if there is anything she can count on in her life, it is her children. How could she not be nice to them
But how can she be happy recently
Not to mention that the incident in Shenjia Village kept her awake all night, even her son made her worried.
Madam Qi pushed the door open and saw her leaning on the couch in a daze, so she walked over to her with light steps: "Grandma, the eldest young master has gone out."
Grandma Xu pursed her lips, her jaw tensed, and even though she was usually gentle, she couldn't help but curse in a low voice: "This troublesome little bastard!"
If it were in the past, she would never say such harsh words to her son, which shows how bad her mood is recently.
Madam Qi lowered her head, but could not follow her words to scold Young Master Xu, so she could only persuade him: "Don't be too angry. In fact, the young master is young and hot-tempered... We have heard of such things before. As long as he can turn back from his mistakes..."
"What do you mean by returning to the right path?" Grandma Xu was very annoyed. She stood up and asked Grandma Qi to change her clothes. She couldn't help but be a little angry: "He has no brains to do such a thing! Other people mess around after they get married, but what about him? How old is he now? If this matter is exposed, how can he get a good marriage?"
When Xu Yuanbo was going to get married, his partner had to be from a similar family background. But how could a family from a similar family be willing to marry their daughter to a dissolute and unrestrained young man before marriage
Not to mention that Xu Yuanbo had a previous case of beating someone.
She put on her clothes, went out with a terrible headache and got into the carriage. Her heart was beating so fast that she didn't know why she always felt like something bad was going to happen.
"Where exactly is it?" She had no choice but to divert her attention and ask Aunt Qi: "Have you found out? Don't come back empty-handed!"
No matter how good your temper is, it will not be good when you encounter things concerning your children's future.
Whenever she thought of Deng Jidong, who seduced her son from following the right path, Grandma Xu couldn't help but feel furious and wished she could get rid of that playboy right now.
Aunt Qi also knew that she was angry, so she quickly reassured her, saying that everything had been found out.
The carriage rolled through East Fourth Street and arrived in front of an ancient courtyard. Madam Qi helped Grandma Xu get off the carriage and explained to her: "It's right here. This house still belongs to our young master..."
Xu Yuanbo was the eldest grandson in the family, so how could the old man not love him? As soon as he was born, Xu Shun allocated a house from the public property and put it in his name.
Over the years, the house has always been in the hands of Grandma Xu, but with so many properties in the family, how could she take care of everything? She never thought that this house had been used by Xu Yuanbo to support his concubines.
Grandma Xu was so angry that she was shaking. If the censors found evidence of this, they would be able to accuse Xu Yuanbo of having a mistress.
By then, let alone marriage, everything will be over.
Xu Shun wanted to beat his grandson to death himself. What he hated most in his life was the inappropriate and weird behavior of such a grandson.
"Knock on the door!" Grandma Xu ordered Aunt Qi while suppressing her anger. Her voice was trembling. She planned to give her son a hard slap in the face when she entered the room.
Nanny Qi agreed and winked at the driver, who hurried forward and knocked on the door.
There was no movement inside for a while. Qi's lips were pursed into a straight line. She became more and more annoyed. She stepped forward, raised her hand, and slammed the door hard: "Open the door!"
But before the door opened, she heard a familiar voice.
"Miss Li!"
Aunt Qi and the others frowned in surprise, and looked in the direction of the voice. They saw an old woman in her sixties, and thought she was calling someone else.
Qi's body was tense and she looked towards the source of the voice with a pale face. She saw Aunt Shen and her vision went dark. She almost fell to the ground. She had to support Aunt Qi to stand firmly. She didn't care to knock on the door anymore. She urged Aunt Qi in a completely unruly manner: "Go!"
Nanny Qi was caught off guard by her reaction. She didn't understand why she suddenly became so angry, but she subconsciously supported Qi and tried to get into the carriage.
Aunt Shen shouted even louder, pushing aside several mothers and rushing towards Qi, "Miss Li! Miss Li, it's me, Miss Li! Don't you recognize me? I'm Aunt Shen from Shenjia Village. I once brought you food. When you were sick, I also hired a doctor for you. Do you remember?!"
Qi's face was so ugly that it could not be described. Upon closer inspection, she looked no different from a female ghost that had been fished out of a well. Her face was as pale as a ghost, and cold sweat kept coming out of her forehead.
She didn't care at all, lifted the curtain of the carriage and was about to leave.
At this moment, the door that had not been opened for a long time suddenly creaked, and Wang'er, a servant of the Xu family, poked his head out. When he saw that it was Grandma Xu, he was so scared that he turned around and ran away.
Everyone was stunned for a moment, and the servants who tried to stop Aunt Shen were unable to react in time and were grabbed by Aunt Shen's sleeves.
Qi was frightened even more, biting her lip and trying to push Aunt Shen away.
Aunt Shen was not willing to give in. She asked in great confusion, "Ms. Li, why are you pretending not to know me? I want to ask you, where is Miss Qi? I haven't seen Miss Qi for so many years. I wonder how she is doing now? Do you have any news about her?"
Qi jumped up like a cat whose tail was stepped on. She stared at Aunt Shen with disgust, trembling her lips, and suddenly reached out and pushed her: "Get out! You got the wrong person!"
