“The Great General used his troops like a god and did not disappoint everyone.
This is a major event that the entire world is celebrating.””The residence should have a good celebration,” said Lady Yuan. In the past, we would mostly attend other people’s banquets together, but we rarely gathered together. If Xie Furen is free, after the Great General returns to the residence, I will invite Furen for a small gathering.”
If this did not involve the marriage of their children, Xie Furen would probably be overjoyed.
However, on second thought, Madam Xie thought that her daughter’s reputation was about to collapse, yet Madam Yuan still had the guts to personally come and propose marriage. Her courage was commendable and she was sincere.
“I must disturb Furen.”
She couldn’t make the decision. It was better to let her daughter and her biological father fight. Who should she listen to? She didn’t want to get involved at all. She didn’t want to please both sides.
Madam Xie had completely let go of herself. Who asked her to be so soft-hearted and listen to everyone’s words? As long as it didn’t touch her reverse scale and hurt her children, she was actually very easy to talk to.
The two madams looked at each other and smiled.
“Why are the two Furens of the Xie family and the Xiao family sitting together? Could it be…A good thing was about to happen. Was the rumor outside true?”
“Look, the two of them are chatting enthusiastically. When have you ever seen Mrs. Yuan smile like this? She’s as cold as a wooden statue.”
“Quickly look, quickly look. I’m afraid the Xiao family is going to soar to the heavens this time.”
Even though they looked calm and peaceful on the surface, the ladies were actually paying attention to the two ladies, Yuan and Xie.
The main reason was that it was impossible not to pay attention to them. There had been a scandal between the two families before, and they were people in the limelight. No matter how Xie Xian clarified and refuted the rumors, in the end, he still could not stop the mouths of the women.
Looking at Xie Xian, even such a young master from an aristocratic family, who was very clean and self-righteous, could not escape from the beauty. He was also a good-looking person.
It was exciting for the two madams to sit together.
In the past, the Xiao Family had arranged a marriage with the Yuan Family’s Young Master. Although it was later annulled, this Madam Yuan of the Xie Family was the eldest daughter of the Yuan Family’s direct branch. She was the biological sister of Yuan Chen’s father…
They would believe it if they said that Madam Yuan was standing up for her family and took the initiative to cause trouble for Madam Xie.
If it was really about the scandal, their relationship would be a mess.
“Yo, yo, yo, yo, it’s going to be lively-”
The people around them were in an uproar. Madam Yin from the Yuan family sat down beside Madam Yuan aggressively. Her face was gloomy and she looked very aggressive.
The heroes from all sides had gathered, and they were just short of starting a war.
“Why is Younger Aunt sitting together with this Madam Xie? Could it be that she doesn’t know about the grudge between the Xiao Residence and our Yuan Family? He’s ruined your nephew’s reputation.”
She had already hugged her daughter and said that. How was it close? She had already swept the floor. Moreover, her daughter’s marriage had not been settled yet.
It was impossible for her to marry into a high family. She could only choose those whose family background was not that outstanding.
However, Madam Yin was not willing to accept the fact that her family background was not that outstanding. Moreover, she was often picked on by the other party. This was what made her feel disgusted.
“Are you talking to me, sister-in-law?” Mrs. Yuan did not even bat an eyelid. Her face was still indifferent, and it was impossible to tell whether she was happy or unhappy.
“When I marry, 1 follow my husband. When my husband dies, I follow my son. If I do things according to my brother and sister-in-law, I’m afraid 1 won’t even be able to enter many families. Since when did my Xie family need your permission to interact with anyone?”
Madam Yin was also extremely angry. Even if Madam Yuan had been interacting with the Xiao family in private, she would not have been so angry. This was a slap to her face in front of all the aristocratic families.
She had forgotten that her sister-in-law had always been cold-hearted and had no one else in her eyes other than her son.
Madam Yin’s face turned green as she asked,””You can’t say that-”
“I don’t need sister-in-law to teach me how to say it. I’m already 40 years old.”Madam Yuan looked down on this sister-in-law. She did not know how the Yin family had raised a daughter of the first wife to be so petty, calculative, and ignorant.
Madam Yuan didn’t even let Madam Yin finish her sentence. She didn’t give Madam Yin any face at all.
It was also because of Xie Shizhong’s death in the past few years that Madam Yuan rarely interacted with others. She even rarely visited her own family. Madam Yin had forgotten the fighting strength of Madam Yuan back then. She was someone who could make her own adults blush and not even have the ability to talk back.
Madam Yin’s heart ached. She was also so angry that she forgot her limits and came looking for trouble.
Originally, Lady Yuan had married into a high position and was the one who had the final say in the Yuan Family. Servant Xie was dead, right? In the blink of an eye, his son had risen to the top and was an official of the third rank. He was already in a high position at such a young age, so Madam Yin still had to give in.
Who asked her son to be so disappointing and not give her face?
Madam Yin was used to it, and she could just digest it by herself. However, Madam Xie had never seen this before.
She had always thought that Mrs. Yuan was cold and aloof. She would always ask everyone to stay away from her. She was very extraordinary and seemed to be very unwilling to interact with ordinary women like them. She never thought that Madam Yuan would be so terrifying when she was angry.
The words that came out of her mouth seemed to have turned into two meters thick ice shards. Coupled with her expression, it was simply too lethal.
Madam Xie suddenly regretted it. Had she relented too quickly just now? She should have rejected him directly.
It was fine if she had a cold and indifferent mother-in-law. At most, she would not like her. However, if she was so lethal, she was afraid that her daughter would be bullied into the dust.
If the other older sisters, younger sisters, older brothers, or younger brothers couldn’t take it, they could just beat them up. However, the mother-in-law was the elder, and her daughter was extremely polite. Even Madam Yin, who was hated by gods and ghosts, didn’t even lift a finger, let alone hit the mother-in-law.
If this marriage was really successful, not to mention Xie Xian’s body, his daughter would probably suffer a lot of torture at Madam Yuan’s place.
Actually, Baoxin was her own daughter. Madam Xie had asked herself, if Xiao Baoshu married such a daughter-in-law, then she would die. Her face was beautiful, but her hands were too weak. She had to beat up whoever she wanted, and her temper was also stubborn…
Madam Xie was worried to death about Xiao Baoxin’s marriage.
Everyone in the group of madams was watching the show. The wives were sitting in the back row, so they naturally saw the storm in front of them.
After Xie Shan heard the little girls talking and laughing, she impatiently went to the front to find her mother.”Mother, what does First Aunt mean? 1 heard them talking about how brother and Xiao Baoxin are getting closer.”
Xie Shan’s voice was extremely low, afraid of being seen by others. It was secretive, but it would not look good if outsiders saw it.
“Why don’t you take a look at what kind of family we are? Why would we marry someone like that?” Madam Wang frowned. Don’t listen to people gossiping. Go back to your seat. You’re in a panic.. How can you look like a lady from a noble family?”
