The Pastoral Empress Merchant
Chapter 724
Chapter 724
Xiao Nianxun said very wronged after hearing what the eldest brother said: "Brother, we have talked to Xiaoxi well, but Xiaoxi doesn't know why she is so angry, we are only for her good, we are her parents , can it still harm her? Why doesn't she know how to understand us and understand our hearts? "
"You, you, what do you want dad to say about you? Doesn't your appearance make Xiaoxi feel that you are despising her? You didn't have a good life before. She is a weak woman who supports your entire Mu family. Did you say anything back then? But now that the conditions have improved, you have begun to dislike her, what do you make her think? Can you not be angry or sad?" Old Master Xiao said with a soft sigh.
Xiao Nianxun was startled, then shook his head quickly and said: "Father, I don't despise Xiao Xi, she is my only daughter, how could I despise her?"
Mu Ankang also shook his head vigorously and said, "Yes, why do we dislike Xiaoxi? Although Xiaoxi is a daughter, we treat her the same as we treat Xiaohua. It's our baby Pimple, and we all hope that the two brothers and sisters will be well. That's why we are worried that Xiaoxi will suffer a lot in the future if she continues to be self-willed like this."
"I can understand and understand your feelings, but you have to think about the problem from Xiaoxi's point of view. Don't you know what kind of person Xiaoxi is? She is not the kind of person you say as a parent. She just listens to everything, she has her own thoughts and opinions, I think it's impossible for you to force her not to go out to do business. You still need to discuss this matter carefully." Xiao The old man shook his head and said.
Then he thought about it, and for some reason, he frowned and asked, "Juelin doesn't seem to have formally visited you at the Xiao Mansion, has he?"
Mu Ankang and Xiao Nianxun were startled at the same time, blinked before nodding and said: "Yes, dad, Juelin hasn't been here yet, we thought before that it was time for Juelin to come, he The wedding date with Xiaoxi has been fixed, but we haven’t officially visited us as parents, it seems that it’s not good. But I forgot when things got busy.”
It was also at this time that Master Xiao realized that Juelin really didn’t seem to have formally visited his sister and son-in-law, the future parents-in-law, and then he suddenly became confused. He didn’t understand why this happened. Haven't formally met your future parents-in-law yet?Is there such a thing in the world?It's really weird the more I think about it...how come they never thought of this question before?It's really strange.
Old Mrs. Xiao also had a weird expression on his face, as if he had thought of the same thing as his son, "How do you become parents? Your daughter's wedding date is set, but you haven't even met your son-in-law yet? If you When you meet on the street... you don't even know that the other party is your son-in-law and parents-in-law?"
It is really unheard of, unseen situation!
After Old Master Xiao said this, Mu Ankang and Xiao Nianxun couldn't help but blushed slightly, feeling a little embarrassed, embarrassed and ashamed.
After they came to the capital, they were a lot lazy. There was elder brother or sister-in-law helping with everything, or father. They didn't have to do anything. Naturally, someone would do things well, and they didn't have to worry about it at all. Even Xiaoxi's marriage is the same, first the emperor bestowed the marriage, then the eldest brother and father were dealing with the palace, and Xiaoxi herself, as parents, they seemed to have never done anything or helped...
"Father, then, how about this, why don't we find a time to send a message to the palace, so that the little prince Juelin can find a time to come to Xiao's mansion? We just happened to tell him about Xiao Xi when we met him, Let him persuade Xiaoxi, maybe Xiaoxi will listen to what he said." After a long while Xiao Nianxun finally found his voice and stammered.
Mu Ankang also quickly said: "Yeah, it's time for us to meet Juelin, otherwise we will really wait until the day we get married to see Juelin. I really don't know who the other party is when we meet on the street. It would be embarrassing if it got out."
Mrs. Xiao glared at Mu Ankang angrily and said, "You guys also know how to be ashamed? You don't know what you're thinking all day, Ankang, I think if you're free, why don't you learn from the housekeeper? Good luck, no matter what you become the lords of a house, you have to have some skills to control the people in the house!"
"Father, what are you talking about, won't my sister live in the house forever?" Master Xiao was anxious.
Old Mr. Xiao cast a sideways glance at his son and said, "Why, do you think I'm willing to let them move out? It doesn't matter if they still live in the mansion now, but if Xiaohua becomes successful in the future and becomes an official, how can he do it?" If you continue to live in the Xiao Mansion, what do you want others to say about him?"
He also hopes to live together as a family, lively and happy. He has lost his daughter for decades, and finally reunited. He wishes to live together for the rest of his life, but he can't be so selfish, if It is impossible for Xiaohua to live in the Xiao Mansion all the time for her high school imperial examination, it will make people gossip, and Xiaohua will never get rid of the infamy of relying on being the prime minister's uncle for the rest of her life.
Thinking that it is very likely that in the near future, his daughter, son-in-law, and grandchildren will move out of the house, Old Master Xiao's eyes showed a trace of loneliness.
Xiao Nianxun and Mu Ankang looked at each other before saying: "Father, it's okay, both we and Xiaoxi and Xiaohua are willing to continue living in Xiao's mansion, not to mention that Xiaohua's imperial examination is not yet known. How about it, my daughter has not been filial in front of you for decades, now that she is back, she must do her filial piety no matter what, you and elder brother don't dislike us and just stay in Xiaofu."
She and her husband have already discussed it. If Xiaohua wants to open a mansion after high school, she will open it. Xiaohua and Xiaoxi will move there first. She is getting old, even if she wants to be filial, it may not be many years before she finally came back, how can she leave her father and live a good life of her own?
As a child, she did very little, and she didn't have any other skills. All she could do was stay by Dad's side, talk to him occasionally, and take a walk.
Old Mrs. Xiao was startled for a moment, and after realizing it, a light flashed in his daughter's eyes, and he said yes again and again.
Although he understands that his daughter and his family will move out of the mansion sooner or later, it still makes him feel very uncomfortable when he thinks about it. He is used to the hustle and bustle in the mansion now. If their family moves out of the mansion, how much quieter the Xiao Mansion will be!
It is one thing to understand in his heart, but another to accept it calmly. Now that he heard his daughter say that, he is naturally very happy in his heart!
Master Xiao also showed a gratified smile. Dad is already old, and no one can tell how many years are left in the remaining days, but no matter what, he hopes that Dad can live happily in the rest of his life Yes, don't be like your mother...
Master Xiao thought of his mother who was no longer alive, and still felt very regretful in his heart. It would be great if he could find his sister back a few years earlier.
Several people talked for a while, and it was nothing more than the old man Xiao trying to persuade his daughter and son-in-law not to be too tough on the matter of granddaughter, and to be soft, Xiaoxi is a person who takes softness and not toughness, they are her father Mother, if they can tactfully persuade them, or use some other milder methods, then even if Xiaoxi refuses to agree, she will not be angry, let alone feel sad.
In the end, it was decided that Master Xiao would post a message to Juelin, asking him to formally visit his future parents-in-law in Xiao's mansion!
"Father, do you want to tell Xiao Xi that we want to invite Jue Lin over?" Master Xiao asked.
Old Master Xiao thought for a while and shook his head and said, "Forget it, don't tell Xiaoxi just yet, so that she doesn't talk to Juelin. Besides, Xiaoxi is an unmarried girl. Nianxun and the others want to see Juelin. Why is Xiaoxi joining in the fun? So there is no need to tell her."
Mrs. Xiao settled the case, settled the matter, and then decided not to tell Mu Jinxi, so Mu Jinxi had no idea that her parents had finally remembered a very important thing, and she didn't know that the truth she had taken so much trouble to conceal was finally To be exposed.
Juelin's miserable days officially began.
After Mrs. Xiao decided on the matter, Mr. Xiao quickly posted the post to the palace. After receiving the post, Jue Lin felt uneasy for some reason. Thinking of what he had done, he suddenly felt a kind of If you want to avoid the urge to meet your future parents-in-law, it is best to delay until the day of the wedding, or it would be best to see you after marriage, because at that time the matter is already a foregone conclusion.
At first, Jue Lin was thinking about telling Mu Jinxi, but after thinking about it, he decided not to tell her first, but to see if he could handle his parents-in-law before talking, otherwise it would really be a mess.
So after thinking about it, Jue Lin felt that it was better not to tell Mu Jinxi first, and decided to keep it from her, so Mu Jinxi missed another chance to know this and stop the development of the matter.
It's just that the post didn't specifically say when he should visit Xiao's mansion, so Jue Lin thought that he had to think about it carefully, and how he should explain this clearly when he saw his parents-in-law. It's a pity that Before he had time to think of a good solution, he was forced to go to Xiao's residence.
This day Juelin came to court, and after he retired from the court, he was really going to leave the palace and return home, when he heard someone calling him from behind, and when he heard that voice, his flying sword eyebrows couldn't help but frowned, but he immediately relaxed again. He opened it, turned around with his usual expression, and nodded slightly towards the person who came: "Prime Minister Xiao."
The person who called Jue Lin to stop was none other than Prime Minister Xiao Jingyan.
"Little Prince Juelin, it's time to retire from the court, so let's not be polite. The mansion has already sent a message to the manor, please come and sit at the mansion, and meet your future father-in-law and mother-in-law by the way. Choosing a day is worse than bumping into it, I think today is the day! What do you think?" Prime Minister Xiao said surprisingly.
Jue Lin was taken aback, apparently he didn't expect that he would suddenly propose that he go to Xiao's mansion today, so he hasn't figured out how to deal with his parents-in-law yet!
So when Xiao Jingyan brought it up, Juelin was a little hesitant. Xiao Jingyan saw his hesitant look, and his expression darkened immediately. He squinted his eyes slightly and looked at Juelin and asked, "Why? Could it be that the little prince Juelin is not willing?"
Hearing the unhappiness implied in Xiao Jingyan's words, Jue Lin hurriedly said: "No, it's right to visit parents-in-law. I was negligent before. This is a temporary emergency. I didn't prepare anything. It doesn't seem very good to rush to the door, isn't it disrespectful to the parents-in-law? Or should I go back to the house and prepare well before I come to visit!"
In the official arena, he is superior to Xiao Jingyan, but now in terms of personal relationship, Xiao Jingyan is Jin'er's uncle, so naturally he is also his own uncle, and he has to be superior to him in terms of status, and he can't do it unless he speaks well.
Who knew that Xiao Jingyan waved his hands indifferently after hearing this and said, "No need, we will be a family soon, don't pay too much attention to these etiquettes, Nian Xun and the others don't pay attention to these empty etiquettes, just go there."
Jue Lin lowered his eyes, looked at the court clothes on his body, and said with a flash of light: "Yes, then at least I have to go back home and change clothes. It's not good to wear court clothes."
Xiao Jingyan only noticed this problem at this time, and after thinking about it, he thought it was true. If Jue Lin wore court clothes to meet Nian Xun and the others, maybe Nian Xun and the others would think that Jue Lin was reminding them to pay attention to his status as a prince. People might forget that they are parents-in-law, and become cautious and cautious towards Jue Lin, which is not a good thing.
"Okay then, you go back to the mansion and change your clothes. I will tell them immediately after I get back to the mansion that you will come to the mansion later." Xiao Jingyan blocked what Jue Lin wanted to say next.
"...Well, I'll go to the Xiao Mansion right after I change my clothes."
After speaking, the two parted ways and went back to their homes.
On the carriage, Juelin became very distressed. It seemed that he couldn't escape, and he didn't know if Jin'er was in the Xiao Mansion today. If her son knew that he had been deceiving her all this time, then she... Thinking of her possible reaction, Jue Lin panicked.But this kind of thing can't be told to others, only to be troubled by oneself.
Thinking about these things, Jue Lin's complexion was not very good. When he returned to the mansion, he had a calm and handsome face, which made the servants in the mansion think that he was said by the emperor again in the palace, but it was the old concubine who asked. Jue Lin, Jue Lin told the truth, but the old concubine was very happy, and quickly asked the manager of the mansion to prepare gifts. Although time was tight, she should be able to choose a few gifts.
Seeing her grandmother's happy look, Juelin had the heart to spoil her good mood and said that if he left like this, the marriage might change... Grandma still didn't know that she was hiding Jin'er and her parents-in-law.
well!What a wrong step, wrong step!
In the end, Jue Lin had no choice but to lift his spirits, took the gift and got into the carriage to go to Xiao's Mansion. On the way, he finally adjusted his mentality.
Soldiers come to block, water comes to cover up, the disaster is caused by himself, so he has to solve it himself. If his parents-in-law are angry with what he did, then he has to find a way to calm them down and get their forgiveness. This is what he should do. What he did was what he should bear.
After Xiao Jingyan returned to the mansion, he told his sister and brother-in-law that Jue Lin would come to visit them after he got dressed in a hurry.
Mu Ankang and Xiao Nianxun immediately became a little nervous, and the old man Xiao was speechless for a while, saying that they are worthless, they are Jue Lin's parents-in-law, and now he and Xiaoxi are not married yet, they should take the responsibility of their parents-in-law Come on airs, instead of fidgeting nervously as soon as you hear that your future son-in-law is coming, you're useless!If Jue Lin or the Wangfu were snobbish, wouldn't they be suppressed like this?
Seeing the performance of his daughter and son-in-law, Mrs. Xiao couldn't help shaking his head. He still needs to train him well, otherwise in the future, Xiaohua will have another house and the two of them will be masters. good.
Xiao Nianxun and Mu Ankang sat at the lower end of the front hall, Mr. Xiao sat at the upper end, and Mr. Xiao sat opposite Xiao Nianxun and Mu Ankang, until the servant's announcement came, Mu Ankang and Mu Ankang Only then did Xiao Nianxun take a deep breath, and put on a gesture that parents-in-law should have.
Xiao Nianxun and Mu Ankang saw a man wearing a moonlight embroidered tunic walking in slowly. Even though he couldn't see his appearance clearly from a distance, the noble and outstanding temperament exuding from his body was still there. I can feel it.
Xiao Nianxun slightly squinted his eyes and looked at the people who came by, he couldn't help sighing in his heart, he always thought that A Yu was already the best, but he didn't expect that this Jue Lin's temperament was even better than A Yu's. Double, Ayu is as gentle as jade, gentle and elegant, like the faint moonlight at night, but this Juelin is the fierce sunlight of the sun, dazzling and hot.
After Jue Lin walked in, he first greeted Mrs. Xiao. Here he is the future son-in-law of the Mu family, and Mrs. Xiao is the father of his parents-in-law, just like his grandfather. Naturally, he had to ask Mrs. Ann first.Then he greeted Xiao Jingyan again, and finally turned to face Mu Ankang and his wife. He politely and honestly saluted, and shouted: "My son-in-law has seen his parents-in-law, but he hasn't come to visit. It was my son-in-law who was negligent, please parents-in-law not to be offended."
Looking closely, Mu Ankang and Xiao Nianxun felt that Jue Lin was a dragon among men, extremely outstanding, probably the most outstanding person they had ever seen in their life, and this person was now their son-in-law, although he was not married yet Held, but the title has already been set, and it has become an established fact, and it is not wrong to say that he is a son-in-law.
Looking at Jue Lin, both of them felt a surge of pride in their hearts, and even felt a sense of pride.
"Okay, okay, we're all a family. It's polite to say that you're not surprised. We also know that you are busy, and Xiaoxi also said that you don't have time for the time being. You don't have to take it to heart. Sit down, sit down! "Xiao Nianxun is the mother-in-law who looks at her son-in-law, and the more she looks at her, the more she is satisfied. She feels that it is really rare for her daughter to meet such a good man. It is really a blessing from her previous life.
It's just that Mu Ankang stared at Jue Lin for a while, and the more he looked, the more frightened he became. After Jue Lin went to sit down, he approached his wife and asked in a low voice: "Lady, do you think this Jue Lin looks like a woman?" Looks a little familiar?"
Xiao Nianxun was looking at Jue Lin with satisfaction, and when he heard Xianggong's question, he couldn't help but startled, looked away, glanced at him strangely and said, "Why are you familiar? Did you see Jue Lin on the street before?" Lin?"
"No, if you take a closer look, the face is really familiar, but after a while, I can't remember where I met it, it seems, it seems to be a very important person..." Mu Ankang was a little distressed frown.
"Could it be that you read it wrong?" Xiao Nianxun asked.
"No, I just think it looks familiar. Look again, maybe you can remember it." Mu Ankang shook his head, resolutely thinking that he was right. This son-in-law looks really familiar, as if he was Where have I seen it.
He was so sure, Xiao Nianxun stopped asking, but turned his eyes back to Jue Lin, and stared at him without blinking.
Jue Lin was sitting opposite, meeting her gaze with anxiety in his heart.
The parents-in-law didn't recognize him at the first time, maybe it's just because it's been a little longer. After all, it's been a few years. Staring at him, he felt that he would be recognized soon.
Thinking of the consequences of being recognized by his parents-in-law, Jue Lin couldn't help showing a wry smile, with his eyes half downcast, there was nothing he could do.
When Jue Lin was nervous, Xiao Nianxun stared at him, the more frightened he became, and finally his expression changed, he stood up abruptly, the hand pointing at Jue Lin trembled slightly, his eyes widened, as if I couldn't believe it, I was shocked and angry at the same time, the corners of my chest rose and fell violently, which showed that I was emotionally excited.
Old Mrs. Xiao and Mr. Xiao looked at her in a daze, wondering what was wrong with her, she was sitting well, why she stood up suddenly, and pointed at Jue Lin's appearance.
"Nian Xun, what's wrong with you?" Old Master Xiao asked.
"Father, he, he, he is, he is..." Xiao Nianxun was so anxious that he couldn't complete his words.
Mu Ankang also stood up abruptly, staring at Jue Lin furiously, his simple and honest face distorted, and asked angrily, "Is it you?"
Jue Lin sighed helplessly, stood up in resignation, lowered his head and admitted, "Father-in-law, mother-in-law, it's me."
Mu Ankang turned pale at first, staggered, and sat down on the chair, looking at Jue Lin angrily and in disbelief, with a strange gleam in his eyes.
The performance of their husband and wife made the old master Xiao and the old master Xiao confused, and they didn't understand what kind of play they were singing.
"What's the matter with you? Can someone tell us what's going on?"
However, neither Xiao Nianxun nor Mu Ankang paid any attention to Master Xiao. Both of them stared at Jue Lin with cannibalistic anger. He waved it over.
Juelin wanted to hide subconsciously, but when he thought of what he had done and the identity of the person in front of him, he stiffened his body and did not dodge. He let Mu Ankang slap him on the face. Is it because Mu Ankang was too angry, so the slap didn't slap Jue Lin directly on the face, but a little bit off, hitting the middle of the neck and cheek, but Mu Ankang exhausted all his strength, although It didn't hit Jue Lin's face directly, but it still scratched his cheek when his fingers brushed over it.
A loud applause fell, and there was silence in the front hall. Not only the servants were stunned, but even Mrs. Xiao and Mr. Xiao were stunned. They were stunned by Mu Ankang's behavior, and stared at Mu Ankang in disbelief. Ankang, this person who has always been honest and sympathetic actually slapped the young prince Juelin?Did he eat the bear's heart and leopard's gall?
"You still have the face to appear here? You ungrateful white-eyed wolf!" Mu Ankang didn't care what other people thought at the moment, his whole body and heart were burning with rage, and he just wanted to kill Jue Lin. Give me a hard beating!
Xiao Nianxun finally came back to his senses, stared blankly at Jue Lin for a while before walking over, looked at him with complicated and incomprehensible eyes and asked: "Are you really him?"
Jue Lin pursed her lips and said apologetically, "Mother-in-law, it's me."
"Whose mother-in-law are you calling? We don't have you as a son-in-law! Get out of here, as far away as possible! Never show up in front of us! We never want to see you!" Mu Ankang yelled furiously, with a The honest and dull face flushed red, he was very fierce, and his tone was very bad, one could hear how much he hated Juelin.
"Father-in-law, don't get excited, listen to me explain slowly and then it's not too late to get angry again." Jue Lin said calmly.
But how could Mu Ankang listen to him now? When he saw him, he remembered the suffering his daughter had suffered. He wished he could kill Juelin immediately, so he was not willing to listen to his explanation.
"Get out! Explain, what else is there to explain, you are an ungrateful, white-eyed wolf who will repay your favor! I was really blind to save you back and killed my daughter. If I knew what would happen later, Even if I saw you being taken away by wild wolves, I would not be kind enough to save you! You are a wolf-hearted thing! Now you still want to marry my daughter, I tell you, no way! This marriage does not count!"
Jue Lin's complexion changed slightly, and then he smiled wryly.
Sure enough, once the father-in-law recognized him, he didn't want to marry Jin'er to him, and now he said such words that could almost be said to be against the decree, so it was obvious that he was really annoyed.
The mother-in-law seemed calmer, so Jue Lin put her energy on her, lowered her attitude, and said sincerely: "Mother-in-law, I know you are very angry and want to kill me, but this matter is not for you to see." As I said, I have difficulties, please give me a chance, let me explain clearly before talking about other things, okay?"
After all, Xiao Nianxun is a woman, so she is easy to soften her heart. Jue Lin's attitude is so low, and she looks very sincere, and she also said that she has difficulties. In addition, when she saw Jue Lin just now, she was too satisfied with him. So now when I heard his request, I couldn't help feeling soft, hesitated for a while and gritted my teeth and said, "Okay, for Xiao Xi's sake, we will give you a chance to explain things clearly, if you can Make it clear, make it clear, you will still be our son-in-law in the future, but if you can't let us calm down, then don't blame us, even if we take the risk of resisting the order, we will not agree to this marriage!"
Jue Lin felt relieved, and hurriedly said, "Mother-in-law, don't worry, I understand."
"My lady! You have to give this white-eyed wolf a chance! Have you forgotten what he has done? He is not a good person at all! He is a jackal! He has no conscience, you and him Say what you say, what you say is nothing, he will only use some lies to deceive you!" Mu Ankang hopped his feet anxiously when he heard his wife's words, and roared out of control.
Xiao Nianxun glared at him, pulled him aside, and said in a low voice: "Are you confused? No matter what, he is Xiaobao's biological father! And now the marriage is a foregone conclusion. It's also settled, what else can you say? And don't forget, Xiaoxi also has heart for him, and Xiaobao likes him so much. What can you do if you don't give him a chance? You want Xiaoxi to be Abandoned wife, let Xiaobao continue to be a child without a father?"
Mu Ankang paused and choked with excitement, "But we can't just let it go, he did such an exaggerated thing to Xiaoxi, causing Xiaoxi and Xiaobao to suffer so much, could it be that he said something nice? Shall we just pretend nothing happened? No! Absolutely not!"
He couldn't let this white-eyed wolf go so easily!Otherwise, he would be a father!
Mu Ankang has always hated the person who hurt his daughter. He has never hated anyone in his life, but he is the only one!
When I first saw him on the mountain, he was injured and unconscious, and the injuries on his body were very unusual. At that time, Xiaohua said that maybe this person was not an ordinary person, and if they rescued him, he might be injured. Get into trouble.But he felt that a human being should not ignore death. Saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. Since he has seen it all, it is absolutely impossible for him to turn a blind eye. This is a living human life!
So after hesitating for a while, he rescued him back home, and used the last bit of money at home to hire a doctor, and came back with the medicine, taking good care of him as much as possible, hoping that he would recover as soon as possible.
But who knew that his behavior would lead wolves into the house!He killed his only daughter's life, made her lose her innocence, and she was pregnant with a child. She suffered a lot at a young age, was pointed at the spine and insulted, and the same was true for the grandson who was born. Live a good day, all thanks to Jue Lin!
Before he ruined his daughter's innocence, he disappeared without a trace. Although he hated him very much, there was nothing he could do about it. He didn't know his identity, where he came from, who his name was, and what he did. Yes, secondly, I don’t have the ability to find him, so I can only bury the regret and resentment in my heart, and often blame myself. If I hadn’t saved him in a soft heart at the beginning, there wouldn’t be so many things that happened later Now, my daughter won't suffer so much.
He thought that he would never see this ungrateful white-eyed wolf again in his life, but he never expected to see him again when he was defenseless!He actually seduced his daughter again without knowing it, and even made his grandson fall in love with him, and even made an appointment for a marriage!This is simply, simply deceiving too much!He didn't pay attention to them at all!
If he felt a little guilty in his heart, after knowing their identities, he should immediately admit his mistake in front of them and explain it clearly, instead of making a marriage without telling them, thinking about hiding it.Did he think that it would be best for them to wait until the day they got married, or simply after they got married, so that they would have nothing to do with him, right?He had this idea in mind, right?
It has to be said that although Mu Ankang is honest and dull, and not a smart person, but in this matter, he guessed Jue Lin's mind exactly!
The more he thought about it, the more furious Mu Ankang became, staring fiercely at Juelin with big eyes, without any fear of his status as a prince.Now I am afraid that even if the emperor stands in front of him, he will forget his identity and only remember what he has done.
Jue Lin, on the other hand, was rarely at a loss. He didn't know what to do. If his parents-in-law couldn't calm down and listen to him explain the matter, there would be no way to talk about it. What if Jin'er came back That would be bad.
Old Mrs. Xiao and Mr. Xiao looked at each other, they didn't know what happened at all, just now Mu Ankang's slap completely frightened them, they never thought that Mu Ankang, who has always been kind and good-tempered, would actually hit someone. So they were all stunned, completely unresponsive.At this moment, he finally came back to his senses, but he was full of doubts, what did they mean?
Did they know Jue Lin before?What is an ungrateful, white-eyed wolf who will repay his favor?Could it be...
Master Xiao was the first to react. He thought of a possibility, and he was startled. At first he felt a little unbelievable, and then he thought of something and felt that it should be so. He didn't know what to say for a while.
"Father, I think I understand what's going on." Master Xiao said with a wry smile.
Mrs. Xiao squinted at him and asked, "What's going on?"
Master Xiao looked at Jue Lin with pity, and said in a low voice, "Father, that Jue Lin should be Xiao Bao's biological father. He was rescued by his younger sister's family back then, but ended up killing Xiao Xi's people."
If this is the case, he can understand the mood of his sister-in-law. In fact, he was also very shocked and angry, but for some reason, he remembered what he had asked Xiaoxi, and Xiaoxi's reaction at that time was clearly that he knew the truth. , but she kept it from everyone and Jue Lin, making Jue Lin foolishly think that she didn't know anything. Now it seems that the girl Xiaoxi also has resentment in her heart, thinking how to play tricks on Jue Lin , vent your grievances, shall we?
So when he thinks this way, he doesn't know how to react. He is angry and funny, but he can't help but sympathize with Jue Lin. He is besieged on all sides now. If he can't let his sister and son-in-law calm down and accept him, what will happen to this marriage in the end? It's really hard to say.Although my sister and the others dare not resist the decree, it is still possible to find a reason to delay the wedding. Just like this is enough for Juelin to eat a pot, right?
Old Mrs. Xiao frowned, with a suspicious look in his eyes, and asked: "You mean that Jue Lin was rescued by Nian Xun and the others, but in the end they took away Xiao Xi's innocence, and finally abandoned their mother-child eyes?" Wolf?"
"It should be, Dad, you didn't look at Ankang like that, you wished you could eat Juelin."
Old Mrs. Xiao cast his eyes on Jue Lin with some doubts. He could see what kind of Xiao Xi and Xiao Bao were in Jue Lin's eyes. No matter how he looked, he didn't look like the kind of person his daughter and son-in-law said. Could it be a mistake?
"Juelin, do you have anything to say?"
Before Jue Lin could speak, Mu Ankang immediately yelled when he heard Mrs. Xiao's words: "Father, you still listen to what he said. This man is not a good thing at all. You can't believe what he said! If you ask him like that, he will definitely There is still a quibble!"
"Shut up! Things haven't been clarified yet, what are you messing around here?" Old Mrs. Xiao glared at her son-in-law angrily.
Confused!No matter what the matter is, the first thing to do now is to find out whether Jue Lin is that person. If so, let’s talk about other things. The marriage between Jue Lin and Xiaoxi is already an established fact. He still said What are these for?Can't you think about it with your brain?If Jue Lin is that person, he is Jue Lin's father-in-law, so there is no way to punish Jue Lin?
stupid!
Mu Ankang almost didn't bring it up in one breath, his face was flushed, and he was very dissatisfied, but the person who spoke was his father-in-law, he couldn't contradict him, let alone he couldn't do such a thing, he just became a wife He won't be spared either, so he can only pant heavily and sulk aside.
Seeing his sad look, Xiao Nianxun walked over and said softly: "Don't worry, you don't know how much Dad likes Xiao Xi, can Dad watch Xiao Xi being wronged? Of course not, you Let's see what dad does first, this matter is no longer what we want to do, the marriage between Xiao Xi and Jue Lin was bestowed by the emperor, what can we do?"
Mu Ankang was startled, and then said in a low voice with some frustration: "I also understand, but when I think of what Juelin has done, I just..."
Xiao Nianxun pursed his lips, stretched out his hand to hold his hand and said: "It's not your fault, you couldn't have just watched him die and didn't save him, Xiaoxi never blamed you, you, you Don’t take everything on yourself.”
She knew that Xianggong had always had a knot in his heart, but this matter was not anyone's fault, it could only be said that it was a trick of God.
In fact, it is not unhelpful to think about this matter in a good direction. Leaving aside what Jue Lin has done, he is indeed a good man. They also see his feelings for Xiao Xi and Xiao Bao, don't they?
Now let's see how Jue Lin will explain it. If he really had difficulties and was forced to do what happened at the beginning, then it's not that they can't give him another chance, but if it's not what they think, he is a People who are not worthy of Xiao Xi's entrustment for life, then even if they go all out, they will not let Xiao Xi marry him!
After a while, Mu Ankang said reluctantly: "Okay, then listen to Dad and see what kind of unavoidable difficulties he has, which made him leave Xiaoxi, mother and son for so many years and ignore them!"
Hahaha, we finally meet, what Juelin has painstakingly kept hidden is about to be exposed!
(End of this chapter)
Xiao Nianxun said very wronged after hearing what the eldest brother said: "Brother, we have talked to Xiaoxi well, but Xiaoxi doesn't know why she is so angry, we are only for her good, we are her parents , can it still harm her? Why doesn't she know how to understand us and understand our hearts? "
"You, you, what do you want dad to say about you? Doesn't your appearance make Xiaoxi feel that you are despising her? You didn't have a good life before. She is a weak woman who supports your entire Mu family. Did you say anything back then? But now that the conditions have improved, you have begun to dislike her, what do you make her think? Can you not be angry or sad?" Old Master Xiao said with a soft sigh.
Xiao Nianxun was startled, then shook his head quickly and said: "Father, I don't despise Xiao Xi, she is my only daughter, how could I despise her?"
Mu Ankang also shook his head vigorously and said, "Yes, why do we dislike Xiaoxi? Although Xiaoxi is a daughter, we treat her the same as we treat Xiaohua. It's our baby Pimple, and we all hope that the two brothers and sisters will be well. That's why we are worried that Xiaoxi will suffer a lot in the future if she continues to be self-willed like this."
"I can understand and understand your feelings, but you have to think about the problem from Xiaoxi's point of view. Don't you know what kind of person Xiaoxi is? She is not the kind of person you say as a parent. She just listens to everything, she has her own thoughts and opinions, I think it's impossible for you to force her not to go out to do business. You still need to discuss this matter carefully." Xiao The old man shook his head and said.
Then he thought about it, and for some reason, he frowned and asked, "Juelin doesn't seem to have formally visited you at the Xiao Mansion, has he?"
Mu Ankang and Xiao Nianxun were startled at the same time, blinked before nodding and said: "Yes, dad, Juelin hasn't been here yet, we thought before that it was time for Juelin to come, he The wedding date with Xiaoxi has been fixed, but we haven’t officially visited us as parents, it seems that it’s not good. But I forgot when things got busy.”
It was also at this time that Master Xiao realized that Juelin really didn’t seem to have formally visited his sister and son-in-law, the future parents-in-law, and then he suddenly became confused. He didn’t understand why this happened. Haven't formally met your future parents-in-law yet?Is there such a thing in the world?It's really weird the more I think about it...how come they never thought of this question before?It's really strange.
Old Mrs. Xiao also had a weird expression on his face, as if he had thought of the same thing as his son, "How do you become parents? Your daughter's wedding date is set, but you haven't even met your son-in-law yet? If you When you meet on the street... you don't even know that the other party is your son-in-law and parents-in-law?"
It is really unheard of, unseen situation!
After Old Master Xiao said this, Mu Ankang and Xiao Nianxun couldn't help but blushed slightly, feeling a little embarrassed, embarrassed and ashamed.
After they came to the capital, they were a lot lazy. There was elder brother or sister-in-law helping with everything, or father. They didn't have to do anything. Naturally, someone would do things well, and they didn't have to worry about it at all. Even Xiaoxi's marriage is the same, first the emperor bestowed the marriage, then the eldest brother and father were dealing with the palace, and Xiaoxi herself, as parents, they seemed to have never done anything or helped...
"Father, then, how about this, why don't we find a time to send a message to the palace, so that the little prince Juelin can find a time to come to Xiao's mansion? We just happened to tell him about Xiao Xi when we met him, Let him persuade Xiaoxi, maybe Xiaoxi will listen to what he said." After a long while Xiao Nianxun finally found his voice and stammered.
Mu Ankang also quickly said: "Yeah, it's time for us to meet Juelin, otherwise we will really wait until the day we get married to see Juelin. I really don't know who the other party is when we meet on the street. It would be embarrassing if it got out."
Mrs. Xiao glared at Mu Ankang angrily and said, "You guys also know how to be ashamed? You don't know what you're thinking all day, Ankang, I think if you're free, why don't you learn from the housekeeper? Good luck, no matter what you become the lords of a house, you have to have some skills to control the people in the house!"
"Father, what are you talking about, won't my sister live in the house forever?" Master Xiao was anxious.
Old Mr. Xiao cast a sideways glance at his son and said, "Why, do you think I'm willing to let them move out? It doesn't matter if they still live in the mansion now, but if Xiaohua becomes successful in the future and becomes an official, how can he do it?" If you continue to live in the Xiao Mansion, what do you want others to say about him?"
He also hopes to live together as a family, lively and happy. He has lost his daughter for decades, and finally reunited. He wishes to live together for the rest of his life, but he can't be so selfish, if It is impossible for Xiaohua to live in the Xiao Mansion all the time for her high school imperial examination, it will make people gossip, and Xiaohua will never get rid of the infamy of relying on being the prime minister's uncle for the rest of her life.
Thinking that it is very likely that in the near future, his daughter, son-in-law, and grandchildren will move out of the house, Old Master Xiao's eyes showed a trace of loneliness.
Xiao Nianxun and Mu Ankang looked at each other before saying: "Father, it's okay, both we and Xiaoxi and Xiaohua are willing to continue living in Xiao's mansion, not to mention that Xiaohua's imperial examination is not yet known. How about it, my daughter has not been filial in front of you for decades, now that she is back, she must do her filial piety no matter what, you and elder brother don't dislike us and just stay in Xiaofu."
She and her husband have already discussed it. If Xiaohua wants to open a mansion after high school, she will open it. Xiaohua and Xiaoxi will move there first. She is getting old, even if she wants to be filial, it may not be many years before she finally came back, how can she leave her father and live a good life of her own?
As a child, she did very little, and she didn't have any other skills. All she could do was stay by Dad's side, talk to him occasionally, and take a walk.
Old Mrs. Xiao was startled for a moment, and after realizing it, a light flashed in his daughter's eyes, and he said yes again and again.
Although he understands that his daughter and his family will move out of the mansion sooner or later, it still makes him feel very uncomfortable when he thinks about it. He is used to the hustle and bustle in the mansion now. If their family moves out of the mansion, how much quieter the Xiao Mansion will be!
It is one thing to understand in his heart, but another to accept it calmly. Now that he heard his daughter say that, he is naturally very happy in his heart!
Master Xiao also showed a gratified smile. Dad is already old, and no one can tell how many years are left in the remaining days, but no matter what, he hopes that Dad can live happily in the rest of his life Yes, don't be like your mother...
Master Xiao thought of his mother who was no longer alive, and still felt very regretful in his heart. It would be great if he could find his sister back a few years earlier.
Several people talked for a while, and it was nothing more than the old man Xiao trying to persuade his daughter and son-in-law not to be too tough on the matter of granddaughter, and to be soft, Xiaoxi is a person who takes softness and not toughness, they are her father Mother, if they can tactfully persuade them, or use some other milder methods, then even if Xiaoxi refuses to agree, she will not be angry, let alone feel sad.
In the end, it was decided that Master Xiao would post a message to Juelin, asking him to formally visit his future parents-in-law in Xiao's mansion!
"Father, do you want to tell Xiao Xi that we want to invite Jue Lin over?" Master Xiao asked.
Old Master Xiao thought for a while and shook his head and said, "Forget it, don't tell Xiaoxi just yet, so that she doesn't talk to Juelin. Besides, Xiaoxi is an unmarried girl. Nianxun and the others want to see Juelin. Why is Xiaoxi joining in the fun? So there is no need to tell her."
Mrs. Xiao settled the case, settled the matter, and then decided not to tell Mu Jinxi, so Mu Jinxi had no idea that her parents had finally remembered a very important thing, and she didn't know that the truth she had taken so much trouble to conceal was finally To be exposed.
Juelin's miserable days officially began.
After Mrs. Xiao decided on the matter, Mr. Xiao quickly posted the post to the palace. After receiving the post, Jue Lin felt uneasy for some reason. Thinking of what he had done, he suddenly felt a kind of If you want to avoid the urge to meet your future parents-in-law, it is best to delay until the day of the wedding, or it would be best to see you after marriage, because at that time the matter is already a foregone conclusion.
At first, Jue Lin was thinking about telling Mu Jinxi, but after thinking about it, he decided not to tell her first, but to see if he could handle his parents-in-law before talking, otherwise it would really be a mess.
So after thinking about it, Jue Lin felt that it was better not to tell Mu Jinxi first, and decided to keep it from her, so Mu Jinxi missed another chance to know this and stop the development of the matter.
It's just that the post didn't specifically say when he should visit Xiao's mansion, so Jue Lin thought that he had to think about it carefully, and how he should explain this clearly when he saw his parents-in-law. It's a pity that Before he had time to think of a good solution, he was forced to go to Xiao's residence.
This day Juelin came to court, and after he retired from the court, he was really going to leave the palace and return home, when he heard someone calling him from behind, and when he heard that voice, his flying sword eyebrows couldn't help but frowned, but he immediately relaxed again. He opened it, turned around with his usual expression, and nodded slightly towards the person who came: "Prime Minister Xiao."
The person who called Jue Lin to stop was none other than Prime Minister Xiao Jingyan.
"Little Prince Juelin, it's time to retire from the court, so let's not be polite. The mansion has already sent a message to the manor, please come and sit at the mansion, and meet your future father-in-law and mother-in-law by the way. Choosing a day is worse than bumping into it, I think today is the day! What do you think?" Prime Minister Xiao said surprisingly.
Jue Lin was taken aback, apparently he didn't expect that he would suddenly propose that he go to Xiao's mansion today, so he hasn't figured out how to deal with his parents-in-law yet!
So when Xiao Jingyan brought it up, Juelin was a little hesitant. Xiao Jingyan saw his hesitant look, and his expression darkened immediately. He squinted his eyes slightly and looked at Juelin and asked, "Why? Could it be that the little prince Juelin is not willing?"
Hearing the unhappiness implied in Xiao Jingyan's words, Jue Lin hurriedly said: "No, it's right to visit parents-in-law. I was negligent before. This is a temporary emergency. I didn't prepare anything. It doesn't seem very good to rush to the door, isn't it disrespectful to the parents-in-law? Or should I go back to the house and prepare well before I come to visit!"
In the official arena, he is superior to Xiao Jingyan, but now in terms of personal relationship, Xiao Jingyan is Jin'er's uncle, so naturally he is also his own uncle, and he has to be superior to him in terms of status, and he can't do it unless he speaks well.
Who knew that Xiao Jingyan waved his hands indifferently after hearing this and said, "No need, we will be a family soon, don't pay too much attention to these etiquettes, Nian Xun and the others don't pay attention to these empty etiquettes, just go there."
Jue Lin lowered his eyes, looked at the court clothes on his body, and said with a flash of light: "Yes, then at least I have to go back home and change clothes. It's not good to wear court clothes."
Xiao Jingyan only noticed this problem at this time, and after thinking about it, he thought it was true. If Jue Lin wore court clothes to meet Nian Xun and the others, maybe Nian Xun and the others would think that Jue Lin was reminding them to pay attention to his status as a prince. People might forget that they are parents-in-law, and become cautious and cautious towards Jue Lin, which is not a good thing.
"Okay then, you go back to the mansion and change your clothes. I will tell them immediately after I get back to the mansion that you will come to the mansion later." Xiao Jingyan blocked what Jue Lin wanted to say next.
"...Well, I'll go to the Xiao Mansion right after I change my clothes."
After speaking, the two parted ways and went back to their homes.
On the carriage, Juelin became very distressed. It seemed that he couldn't escape, and he didn't know if Jin'er was in the Xiao Mansion today. If her son knew that he had been deceiving her all this time, then she... Thinking of her possible reaction, Jue Lin panicked.But this kind of thing can't be told to others, only to be troubled by oneself.
Thinking about these things, Jue Lin's complexion was not very good. When he returned to the mansion, he had a calm and handsome face, which made the servants in the mansion think that he was said by the emperor again in the palace, but it was the old concubine who asked. Jue Lin, Jue Lin told the truth, but the old concubine was very happy, and quickly asked the manager of the mansion to prepare gifts. Although time was tight, she should be able to choose a few gifts.
Seeing her grandmother's happy look, Juelin had the heart to spoil her good mood and said that if he left like this, the marriage might change... Grandma still didn't know that she was hiding Jin'er and her parents-in-law.
well!What a wrong step, wrong step!
In the end, Jue Lin had no choice but to lift his spirits, took the gift and got into the carriage to go to Xiao's Mansion. On the way, he finally adjusted his mentality.
Soldiers come to block, water comes to cover up, the disaster is caused by himself, so he has to solve it himself. If his parents-in-law are angry with what he did, then he has to find a way to calm them down and get their forgiveness. This is what he should do. What he did was what he should bear.
After Xiao Jingyan returned to the mansion, he told his sister and brother-in-law that Jue Lin would come to visit them after he got dressed in a hurry.
Mu Ankang and Xiao Nianxun immediately became a little nervous, and the old man Xiao was speechless for a while, saying that they are worthless, they are Jue Lin's parents-in-law, and now he and Xiaoxi are not married yet, they should take the responsibility of their parents-in-law Come on airs, instead of fidgeting nervously as soon as you hear that your future son-in-law is coming, you're useless!If Jue Lin or the Wangfu were snobbish, wouldn't they be suppressed like this?
Seeing the performance of his daughter and son-in-law, Mrs. Xiao couldn't help shaking his head. He still needs to train him well, otherwise in the future, Xiaohua will have another house and the two of them will be masters. good.
Xiao Nianxun and Mu Ankang sat at the lower end of the front hall, Mr. Xiao sat at the upper end, and Mr. Xiao sat opposite Xiao Nianxun and Mu Ankang, until the servant's announcement came, Mu Ankang and Mu Ankang Only then did Xiao Nianxun take a deep breath, and put on a gesture that parents-in-law should have.
Xiao Nianxun and Mu Ankang saw a man wearing a moonlight embroidered tunic walking in slowly. Even though he couldn't see his appearance clearly from a distance, the noble and outstanding temperament exuding from his body was still there. I can feel it.
Xiao Nianxun slightly squinted his eyes and looked at the people who came by, he couldn't help sighing in his heart, he always thought that A Yu was already the best, but he didn't expect that this Jue Lin's temperament was even better than A Yu's. Double, Ayu is as gentle as jade, gentle and elegant, like the faint moonlight at night, but this Juelin is the fierce sunlight of the sun, dazzling and hot.
After Jue Lin walked in, he first greeted Mrs. Xiao. Here he is the future son-in-law of the Mu family, and Mrs. Xiao is the father of his parents-in-law, just like his grandfather. Naturally, he had to ask Mrs. Ann first.Then he greeted Xiao Jingyan again, and finally turned to face Mu Ankang and his wife. He politely and honestly saluted, and shouted: "My son-in-law has seen his parents-in-law, but he hasn't come to visit. It was my son-in-law who was negligent, please parents-in-law not to be offended."
Looking closely, Mu Ankang and Xiao Nianxun felt that Jue Lin was a dragon among men, extremely outstanding, probably the most outstanding person they had ever seen in their life, and this person was now their son-in-law, although he was not married yet Held, but the title has already been set, and it has become an established fact, and it is not wrong to say that he is a son-in-law.
Looking at Jue Lin, both of them felt a surge of pride in their hearts, and even felt a sense of pride.
"Okay, okay, we're all a family. It's polite to say that you're not surprised. We also know that you are busy, and Xiaoxi also said that you don't have time for the time being. You don't have to take it to heart. Sit down, sit down! "Xiao Nianxun is the mother-in-law who looks at her son-in-law, and the more she looks at her, the more she is satisfied. She feels that it is really rare for her daughter to meet such a good man. It is really a blessing from her previous life.
It's just that Mu Ankang stared at Jue Lin for a while, and the more he looked, the more frightened he became. After Jue Lin went to sit down, he approached his wife and asked in a low voice: "Lady, do you think this Jue Lin looks like a woman?" Looks a little familiar?"
Xiao Nianxun was looking at Jue Lin with satisfaction, and when he heard Xianggong's question, he couldn't help but startled, looked away, glanced at him strangely and said, "Why are you familiar? Did you see Jue Lin on the street before?" Lin?"
"No, if you take a closer look, the face is really familiar, but after a while, I can't remember where I met it, it seems, it seems to be a very important person..." Mu Ankang was a little distressed frown.
"Could it be that you read it wrong?" Xiao Nianxun asked.
"No, I just think it looks familiar. Look again, maybe you can remember it." Mu Ankang shook his head, resolutely thinking that he was right. This son-in-law looks really familiar, as if he was Where have I seen it.
He was so sure, Xiao Nianxun stopped asking, but turned his eyes back to Jue Lin, and stared at him without blinking.
Jue Lin was sitting opposite, meeting her gaze with anxiety in his heart.
The parents-in-law didn't recognize him at the first time, maybe it's just because it's been a little longer. After all, it's been a few years. Staring at him, he felt that he would be recognized soon.
Thinking of the consequences of being recognized by his parents-in-law, Jue Lin couldn't help showing a wry smile, with his eyes half downcast, there was nothing he could do.
When Jue Lin was nervous, Xiao Nianxun stared at him, the more frightened he became, and finally his expression changed, he stood up abruptly, the hand pointing at Jue Lin trembled slightly, his eyes widened, as if I couldn't believe it, I was shocked and angry at the same time, the corners of my chest rose and fell violently, which showed that I was emotionally excited.
Old Mrs. Xiao and Mr. Xiao looked at her in a daze, wondering what was wrong with her, she was sitting well, why she stood up suddenly, and pointed at Jue Lin's appearance.
"Nian Xun, what's wrong with you?" Old Master Xiao asked.
"Father, he, he, he is, he is..." Xiao Nianxun was so anxious that he couldn't complete his words.
Mu Ankang also stood up abruptly, staring at Jue Lin furiously, his simple and honest face distorted, and asked angrily, "Is it you?"
Jue Lin sighed helplessly, stood up in resignation, lowered his head and admitted, "Father-in-law, mother-in-law, it's me."
Mu Ankang turned pale at first, staggered, and sat down on the chair, looking at Jue Lin angrily and in disbelief, with a strange gleam in his eyes.
The performance of their husband and wife made the old master Xiao and the old master Xiao confused, and they didn't understand what kind of play they were singing.
"What's the matter with you? Can someone tell us what's going on?"
However, neither Xiao Nianxun nor Mu Ankang paid any attention to Master Xiao. Both of them stared at Jue Lin with cannibalistic anger. He waved it over.
Juelin wanted to hide subconsciously, but when he thought of what he had done and the identity of the person in front of him, he stiffened his body and did not dodge. He let Mu Ankang slap him on the face. Is it because Mu Ankang was too angry, so the slap didn't slap Jue Lin directly on the face, but a little bit off, hitting the middle of the neck and cheek, but Mu Ankang exhausted all his strength, although It didn't hit Jue Lin's face directly, but it still scratched his cheek when his fingers brushed over it.
A loud applause fell, and there was silence in the front hall. Not only the servants were stunned, but even Mrs. Xiao and Mr. Xiao were stunned. They were stunned by Mu Ankang's behavior, and stared at Mu Ankang in disbelief. Ankang, this person who has always been honest and sympathetic actually slapped the young prince Juelin?Did he eat the bear's heart and leopard's gall?
"You still have the face to appear here? You ungrateful white-eyed wolf!" Mu Ankang didn't care what other people thought at the moment, his whole body and heart were burning with rage, and he just wanted to kill Jue Lin. Give me a hard beating!
Xiao Nianxun finally came back to his senses, stared blankly at Jue Lin for a while before walking over, looked at him with complicated and incomprehensible eyes and asked: "Are you really him?"
Jue Lin pursed her lips and said apologetically, "Mother-in-law, it's me."
"Whose mother-in-law are you calling? We don't have you as a son-in-law! Get out of here, as far away as possible! Never show up in front of us! We never want to see you!" Mu Ankang yelled furiously, with a The honest and dull face flushed red, he was very fierce, and his tone was very bad, one could hear how much he hated Juelin.
"Father-in-law, don't get excited, listen to me explain slowly and then it's not too late to get angry again." Jue Lin said calmly.
But how could Mu Ankang listen to him now? When he saw him, he remembered the suffering his daughter had suffered. He wished he could kill Juelin immediately, so he was not willing to listen to his explanation.
"Get out! Explain, what else is there to explain, you are an ungrateful, white-eyed wolf who will repay your favor! I was really blind to save you back and killed my daughter. If I knew what would happen later, Even if I saw you being taken away by wild wolves, I would not be kind enough to save you! You are a wolf-hearted thing! Now you still want to marry my daughter, I tell you, no way! This marriage does not count!"
Jue Lin's complexion changed slightly, and then he smiled wryly.
Sure enough, once the father-in-law recognized him, he didn't want to marry Jin'er to him, and now he said such words that could almost be said to be against the decree, so it was obvious that he was really annoyed.
The mother-in-law seemed calmer, so Jue Lin put her energy on her, lowered her attitude, and said sincerely: "Mother-in-law, I know you are very angry and want to kill me, but this matter is not for you to see." As I said, I have difficulties, please give me a chance, let me explain clearly before talking about other things, okay?"
After all, Xiao Nianxun is a woman, so she is easy to soften her heart. Jue Lin's attitude is so low, and she looks very sincere, and she also said that she has difficulties. In addition, when she saw Jue Lin just now, she was too satisfied with him. So now when I heard his request, I couldn't help feeling soft, hesitated for a while and gritted my teeth and said, "Okay, for Xiao Xi's sake, we will give you a chance to explain things clearly, if you can Make it clear, make it clear, you will still be our son-in-law in the future, but if you can't let us calm down, then don't blame us, even if we take the risk of resisting the order, we will not agree to this marriage!"
Jue Lin felt relieved, and hurriedly said, "Mother-in-law, don't worry, I understand."
"My lady! You have to give this white-eyed wolf a chance! Have you forgotten what he has done? He is not a good person at all! He is a jackal! He has no conscience, you and him Say what you say, what you say is nothing, he will only use some lies to deceive you!" Mu Ankang hopped his feet anxiously when he heard his wife's words, and roared out of control.
Xiao Nianxun glared at him, pulled him aside, and said in a low voice: "Are you confused? No matter what, he is Xiaobao's biological father! And now the marriage is a foregone conclusion. It's also settled, what else can you say? And don't forget, Xiaoxi also has heart for him, and Xiaobao likes him so much. What can you do if you don't give him a chance? You want Xiaoxi to be Abandoned wife, let Xiaobao continue to be a child without a father?"
Mu Ankang paused and choked with excitement, "But we can't just let it go, he did such an exaggerated thing to Xiaoxi, causing Xiaoxi and Xiaobao to suffer so much, could it be that he said something nice? Shall we just pretend nothing happened? No! Absolutely not!"
He couldn't let this white-eyed wolf go so easily!Otherwise, he would be a father!
Mu Ankang has always hated the person who hurt his daughter. He has never hated anyone in his life, but he is the only one!
When I first saw him on the mountain, he was injured and unconscious, and the injuries on his body were very unusual. At that time, Xiaohua said that maybe this person was not an ordinary person, and if they rescued him, he might be injured. Get into trouble.But he felt that a human being should not ignore death. Saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. Since he has seen it all, it is absolutely impossible for him to turn a blind eye. This is a living human life!
So after hesitating for a while, he rescued him back home, and used the last bit of money at home to hire a doctor, and came back with the medicine, taking good care of him as much as possible, hoping that he would recover as soon as possible.
But who knew that his behavior would lead wolves into the house!He killed his only daughter's life, made her lose her innocence, and she was pregnant with a child. She suffered a lot at a young age, was pointed at the spine and insulted, and the same was true for the grandson who was born. Live a good day, all thanks to Jue Lin!
Before he ruined his daughter's innocence, he disappeared without a trace. Although he hated him very much, there was nothing he could do about it. He didn't know his identity, where he came from, who his name was, and what he did. Yes, secondly, I don’t have the ability to find him, so I can only bury the regret and resentment in my heart, and often blame myself. If I hadn’t saved him in a soft heart at the beginning, there wouldn’t be so many things that happened later Now, my daughter won't suffer so much.
He thought that he would never see this ungrateful white-eyed wolf again in his life, but he never expected to see him again when he was defenseless!He actually seduced his daughter again without knowing it, and even made his grandson fall in love with him, and even made an appointment for a marriage!This is simply, simply deceiving too much!He didn't pay attention to them at all!
If he felt a little guilty in his heart, after knowing their identities, he should immediately admit his mistake in front of them and explain it clearly, instead of making a marriage without telling them, thinking about hiding it.Did he think that it would be best for them to wait until the day they got married, or simply after they got married, so that they would have nothing to do with him, right?He had this idea in mind, right?
It has to be said that although Mu Ankang is honest and dull, and not a smart person, but in this matter, he guessed Jue Lin's mind exactly!
The more he thought about it, the more furious Mu Ankang became, staring fiercely at Juelin with big eyes, without any fear of his status as a prince.Now I am afraid that even if the emperor stands in front of him, he will forget his identity and only remember what he has done.
Jue Lin, on the other hand, was rarely at a loss. He didn't know what to do. If his parents-in-law couldn't calm down and listen to him explain the matter, there would be no way to talk about it. What if Jin'er came back That would be bad.
Old Mrs. Xiao and Mr. Xiao looked at each other, they didn't know what happened at all, just now Mu Ankang's slap completely frightened them, they never thought that Mu Ankang, who has always been kind and good-tempered, would actually hit someone. So they were all stunned, completely unresponsive.At this moment, he finally came back to his senses, but he was full of doubts, what did they mean?
Did they know Jue Lin before?What is an ungrateful, white-eyed wolf who will repay his favor?Could it be...
Master Xiao was the first to react. He thought of a possibility, and he was startled. At first he felt a little unbelievable, and then he thought of something and felt that it should be so. He didn't know what to say for a while.
"Father, I think I understand what's going on." Master Xiao said with a wry smile.
Mrs. Xiao squinted at him and asked, "What's going on?"
Master Xiao looked at Jue Lin with pity, and said in a low voice, "Father, that Jue Lin should be Xiao Bao's biological father. He was rescued by his younger sister's family back then, but ended up killing Xiao Xi's people."
If this is the case, he can understand the mood of his sister-in-law. In fact, he was also very shocked and angry, but for some reason, he remembered what he had asked Xiaoxi, and Xiaoxi's reaction at that time was clearly that he knew the truth. , but she kept it from everyone and Jue Lin, making Jue Lin foolishly think that she didn't know anything. Now it seems that the girl Xiaoxi also has resentment in her heart, thinking how to play tricks on Jue Lin , vent your grievances, shall we?
So when he thinks this way, he doesn't know how to react. He is angry and funny, but he can't help but sympathize with Jue Lin. He is besieged on all sides now. If he can't let his sister and son-in-law calm down and accept him, what will happen to this marriage in the end? It's really hard to say.Although my sister and the others dare not resist the decree, it is still possible to find a reason to delay the wedding. Just like this is enough for Juelin to eat a pot, right?
Old Mrs. Xiao frowned, with a suspicious look in his eyes, and asked: "You mean that Jue Lin was rescued by Nian Xun and the others, but in the end they took away Xiao Xi's innocence, and finally abandoned their mother-child eyes?" Wolf?"
"It should be, Dad, you didn't look at Ankang like that, you wished you could eat Juelin."
Old Mrs. Xiao cast his eyes on Jue Lin with some doubts. He could see what kind of Xiao Xi and Xiao Bao were in Jue Lin's eyes. No matter how he looked, he didn't look like the kind of person his daughter and son-in-law said. Could it be a mistake?
"Juelin, do you have anything to say?"
Before Jue Lin could speak, Mu Ankang immediately yelled when he heard Mrs. Xiao's words: "Father, you still listen to what he said. This man is not a good thing at all. You can't believe what he said! If you ask him like that, he will definitely There is still a quibble!"
"Shut up! Things haven't been clarified yet, what are you messing around here?" Old Mrs. Xiao glared at her son-in-law angrily.
Confused!No matter what the matter is, the first thing to do now is to find out whether Jue Lin is that person. If so, let’s talk about other things. The marriage between Jue Lin and Xiaoxi is already an established fact. He still said What are these for?Can't you think about it with your brain?If Jue Lin is that person, he is Jue Lin's father-in-law, so there is no way to punish Jue Lin?
stupid!
Mu Ankang almost didn't bring it up in one breath, his face was flushed, and he was very dissatisfied, but the person who spoke was his father-in-law, he couldn't contradict him, let alone he couldn't do such a thing, he just became a wife He won't be spared either, so he can only pant heavily and sulk aside.
Seeing his sad look, Xiao Nianxun walked over and said softly: "Don't worry, you don't know how much Dad likes Xiao Xi, can Dad watch Xiao Xi being wronged? Of course not, you Let's see what dad does first, this matter is no longer what we want to do, the marriage between Xiao Xi and Jue Lin was bestowed by the emperor, what can we do?"
Mu Ankang was startled, and then said in a low voice with some frustration: "I also understand, but when I think of what Juelin has done, I just..."
Xiao Nianxun pursed his lips, stretched out his hand to hold his hand and said: "It's not your fault, you couldn't have just watched him die and didn't save him, Xiaoxi never blamed you, you, you Don’t take everything on yourself.”
She knew that Xianggong had always had a knot in his heart, but this matter was not anyone's fault, it could only be said that it was a trick of God.
In fact, it is not unhelpful to think about this matter in a good direction. Leaving aside what Jue Lin has done, he is indeed a good man. They also see his feelings for Xiao Xi and Xiao Bao, don't they?
Now let's see how Jue Lin will explain it. If he really had difficulties and was forced to do what happened at the beginning, then it's not that they can't give him another chance, but if it's not what they think, he is a People who are not worthy of Xiao Xi's entrustment for life, then even if they go all out, they will not let Xiao Xi marry him!
After a while, Mu Ankang said reluctantly: "Okay, then listen to Dad and see what kind of unavoidable difficulties he has, which made him leave Xiaoxi, mother and son for so many years and ignore them!"
Hahaha, we finally meet, what Juelin has painstakingly kept hidden is about to be exposed!
