Chapter 5 Different
She didn't think that Xiao Huaisu would understand anything, and Xiaoju, that dull maid, let alone that she was from their Xiaofu, they didn't feel ashamed to let Gaoyi county magistrate live in a dignified place, so why should she be afraid of people listening? go?
At this moment, the person in her arms was crying as if she had lost her soul. Mrs. Wang hugged her distressedly, and turned to look at Mrs. Du, "Mother-in-law, even if it's for Huai Su, this matter We also need to think long-term!"

Mrs. Du had calmed down and walked over slowly, raised her hand to stroke the black hair on Xiao Huaisu's head, her face was full of distress, "My son, now that your mother is gone, grandma will never let you go Never mind!"

Xiao Huaisu sobbed and raised his head, looked at Mrs. Du with a pair of hazy teary eyes, with a small face full of indescribable grievances, and murmured: "Huaisu wants to follow grandma..."

"Okay, follow grandma!"

Mrs. Du held Xiao Huaisu's little hand tightly, but her words had some meaning, "From now on, wherever my grandmother goes, Huai Su will be there, and I will never suffer such idleness in front of others again!"

Xiao Huaisu nodded heavily, feeling relieved at once. She believed that Mrs. Du had kept her word. Now that her daughter had gone, and such a scandal happened again, the Du family would not let her stay in the Xiao family alone. Being humiliated.

It would take five or six days to travel from Bianjing to Lanling quickly, but now that it is raining in autumn, and Mrs. Du is not young anymore, he can't stand the bumps of riding a horse. It will take ten days.

Du Boshu has been dead for 45 days, and two days before the funeral, Old Master Du finally arrived at Changxing Hou Mansion with his two sons.

Grandpa Du, Du Jiru, is the Minister of the Ministry of Officials of the second grade and a scholar of the Wenhua Palace. The Du family has a lot of Jinshi, and he is highly regarded by the emperor.

Except for his second son Du Bohong, who was in office, and his eldest daughter Du Boxian, who was married to Yanping, who could not make it back, his eldest son Du Bowen and fourth son Du Boyan followed him this time.

Before Xiao Huaisu saw his grandfather and the two uncles, he had already heard the news that the two uncles had beaten Xiao Yihai violently, so he was so shocked that he didn't shut his mouth.

Mrs. Wang was feeding her the crushed corn soup unhurriedly. Hearing the news, she just snorted nonchalantly, "How long has it been since our girl from the Du family married to the Xiao family? She left in her early twenties. I said, it was due to the friendship between the old Hou Ye and our family that he didn't beat a leg."

Xiao Huaisu swallowed his saliva, and silently took a mouthful of corn soup and chewed it in his mouth, but he felt an astringent taste.

Death is like a lamp going out, no matter how regretful it is, what's the use of being sad?
If the Du family could really keep their eyes open and choose a husband-in-law for Du Boshu, why did they come to this point?
Half of Xiao Yihai's face was swollen from the beating, and the corner of his mouth was cracked, but he still limped and respectfully brought Mrs. Du to Xiao Huaisu's room.

This is the first time that Xiao Huaisu saw her so-called father after time travel, but that appearance is really impressive, I'm afraid it will become her nightmare for a few days, it's better not to see him.

Xiao Huaisu took a sharp look at Mrs. Xiao and Gaoyi County Lord after the dark group of people pressed down.

It's just that Mrs. Xiao has an angry look on her face. The eyes she looks at the Du family are not so much looking at her in-laws, but more like looking at her enemies.

Although there was fire in Gaoyi County Lord's eyes, he still had a lot of scruples in his words and deeds in front of people. Although there was a faint concern for Xiao Yihai on his face, he didn't show it too openly.

Regarding this point, Mrs. Xiao had to be more considerate, no matter what she felt in her heart, she was still polite and considerate on the face, and when she arrived in the room, she chose an inconspicuous place and stood there gracefully.

"Huisu!"

Old Mrs. Du's eyes were filled with tears. Seeing her granddaughter was like seeing the little girl who was still by her side before. Her childish and tender words were at her knees, but all this could never return to the past.

The two uncles of the Du family also looked sad. Even though Xiao Huaisu had always kept an attitude of staying out of the matter in the past, he couldn't help but feel a little moved at this moment, and called them over under Wang's guidance.

Her immature voice was slightly choked, causing everyone to cry again.

"Good boy, it's really hard for you!"

Old Master Du wiped his eyelids with one hand, pulled the corners of his lips reluctantly, and gave Xiao Huaisu a smile that was uglier than crying.

The two uncles were not much better.

Seeing this scene, Mrs. Du got up to see off the guests, "Their father and son have just arrived, let them have a rest and tidy up, let's talk about anything later." These words were directed at the chief What Mrs. Xiao said, she didn't even give Mrs. Xiao a wink, but it made her feel really stuffy.

What else could Mrs. Xiao say, she could only laugh and comfort her, and then retreated with the Xiao family.

Mrs. Wang asked Xia He to go out to have a look to make sure that the Xiao family had gone far away, so she asked the two maids to stay outside the house, and the whole family got together to discuss business matters.

The Xiao family went all the way back to Mrs. Xiao's west courtyard. Mrs. Xiao dismissed all the serving maids. As soon as she turned around, she heard a "bang" in the room. , the corners of his mouth twitched in distress.

What is broken on the ground is the double-sided flower-and-bird famille rose pot of the Yue Kiln. If the tea set is missing the pot, isn’t it all ruined?

Although Xiao's family holds the title of Marquis of Changxing, this life is coming to an end, and Xiao Yitao and Xiao Yihai have not been able to receive a serious job, so relying on the imperial court's little Lumi, it can only maintain the appearance of glory. It was already an empty shell inside.

It's a pity that Mrs. Xiao is so old that she doesn't know what to do. Mrs. Xiao vomited so much that she was about to vomit blood, so she had to tighten her handkerchief and said nothing.

"Hateful, really too hateful!"

Mrs. Xiao was still puzzled, and slapped the little Fang who was lying on the Arhat's bed beside her with one hand, "Why are they so arrogant? When they came up, they beat the third child without saying a word. It's no good if there is no one in our Xiao family." ?”

Xiao Yihai sat by the side with his head downcast, and did not continue the conversation.

The Lord of Gaoyi County glanced at him, then turned his head and persuaded in a gentle voice: "Old lady, calm down, there are only two days left, send away these plague gods, from now on we will see nothing!"

Mrs. Xiao pursed her lips, not paying attention to Gaoyi County Lord's words, this is better than singing. If it wasn't for her, would the Xiao family be in such a state today?
Mrs. Xiao is very fond of this, and she glanced at the slightly protruding lower abdomen of the Gaoyi County Lord, who was covered under the skirt and jacket with sleeves, and then calmed down her anger, "Gaoyi understands me best. No matter what I do, I am thinking of you, right? Look at the appearance of the third child, go down and apply the medicine, such a handsome face, don't be ruined by the Du family."
