 Later, Mrs. Tan asked Mrs. Qi to come over.

"Madam!" Mrs. Qi entered the house safely and greeted her as a greeting, "What do you want from me?"

Seeing her coming, Mrs. Tan quickly smiled and said, "Don't be anxious, sit down and speak slowly!"

Mrs. Qi turned around and sat down.

“Recently, there have been a lot of things going on at home, and we haven't had a solid conversation for a long time...” Mrs. Tan started to go around again.

"If you have anything to say, just say it!" Mrs. Qi interrupted her.

Tan's habit is to go around beforehand, so he was a little unhappy when he was interrupted rashly. She is so arrogant. I wonder how many daughter-in-laws there are in this capital. He stopped talking and looked at Cui Fengying in front of him coldly.

 Sitting there casually, but not moving.

In front of herself, her words and deeds are never as formal and rigid as those of other people's wives.

Unlike other people, no matter how discordant they are, they still smile, go around in circles, and stop everything.

 And she always shows that she is strong in her bones. Even if I took Qi Xiao away, she wouldn't cry like an ordinary woman.

  Alas, who made me a powerless poor girl! If she didn't have some tricks up her sleeve, I would have been crushed to death by her!

"Madam, if you have anything to say, just say it! I still have something to do!" Seeing that Mr. Tan was distracted, Mrs. Qi urged her directly.

“You have a wife, I have no family background, and I am still a step-mother-in-law, but you have to pretend a little bit, right?!” Mrs. Tan decided to try this again.

 “Madam, you are going too far!” Mrs. Qi was not in a hurry.

"Okay... I'm digressing. You've been treating me like this for a day and a half. If it weren't for Xiao'er's matter... I wouldn't bother talking nonsense to you!"

Seeing Tan mention her son, Mrs. Qi looked at her seriously.

"Xiao'er is a good and loving child. Even if you are dissatisfied with Mrs. Xu, you have married her, given birth to a daughter, and now you are pregnant with her. As the saying goes: If your son respects his wife, you are considered Xiao'er. For your own sake…”

 “What are you talking about, madam? Why can't I understand you?”

 “What don't you understand?”

“Xu is pregnant?”

 “…”She is pretending to be stupid! "Yes, I got pregnant, got angry, and went back to my parents' house!"

"That's it! No one told me about such things at home! I don't care about the family, I don't know what's normal. Pregnancy is a good thing, she doesn't have a son yet, why are you angry?! Oh, I was just asking. ! It's okay if it's not convenient for you to say.”

 “You...” this bitch! Tan cursed secretly, but his face showed embarrassment.

"Fengying, why are you doing this! Okay! If you pretend not to know, then I will simply explain it clearly. Mrs. Xu found out that you gave the two big shops in your hands to Miss Wen! In fact, you want me to say , this is your private property, no one else has the right to interfere with whoever you want to give it to..."

“What Madam said is right, so what else can we talk about?!” Madam Cui interrupted her again.

"Feng Ying!" Tan was interrupted many times and became angry: "Xiao'er is your biological eldest son after all!"

 “I didn't say he wasn't!”

"Then why are you biased? Normally, that's fine. But now Minghui is pregnant. People are easily excited at this time. She has a little temper... Why do you have to do this at this time? What about this matter?"

"But this is not what we are doing now! It was decided more than half a year ago. How could I know when she would be pregnant and why she would mind it!?"

“I didn't know either, but now it's happened. She didn't come back to her parents' home, and Xiaoer went to pick her up, but her brother and sister-in-law scolded her! It makes me feel bad to hear it!”

Mrs. Qi laughed heartily, "If Qi Xiao is scolded by that good-for-nothing Xu Mingshan, then he will be worse than a good-for-nothing! I don't feel bad for him!"

Mrs. Tan looked in disbelief: "Fengying! Anyway, Minghui is pregnant and I don't know the depth of it. What if something happens to her, what will Xiaoer do? What will you do?"

“Madam, I don't believe what you are saying! She doesn't know how to cherish her own pregnancy, but uses it to threaten others and gain benefits? Is this a stupid thing or a lack of moral character!?”

"Okay! This is my sincere advice. I just hope that your family will be safe and sound! Don't cause trouble! Although it is your private property, whether it is a wealthy family or a commoner, the eldest son and eldest grandson will only get the big share. This is eternal. rule!"

“Haha, the eldest son and the eldest grandson... get the big share... Why didn't I know that the Qi family has this rule!"

Mrs. Tan's heart skipped a beat, she was wrong, she was telling the truth...

Mrs. Qi sneered: "I don't know what's going on with Qi Xiao's mind. He doesn't even look at things that belong to him, but looks at other people's things!"

Tan's dark eyes looked at Mrs. Qi.

Mrs. Qi didn't look at her either, "After talking for so long, what do you mean?"

"It means the family is happy and prosperous! I never want to say anything bad about you in front of others. I just don't want others to talk about the Qi family's affairs. Others are pointing fingers behind your back!" "Madam, I have never... You are criticized in front of others, and others are also pointing fingers behind me!”

After Mrs. Qi finished speaking, she stood up and left.

Mrs. Tan looked at Mrs. Qi's back gloomily...

The curtain at the inner door was raised, and Qi Xiao came out, his face extremely ugly.

It turned out that he was at Xu's house, and Xu Minghui's eldest brother was jumping up and down, and his fingers were almost reaching his head.

It made him so angry that if his wife hadn't been pregnant, he would have turned against her!

  Danren was not brought back.

He was frightened and told his mother, so he found Mrs. Tan and asked her to make preparations. But I didn't expect that my mother would even be a nuisance to my grandmother.

Mrs. Tan seemed to have something on her mind and said to Qi Xiao, "Listen, I haven't opened my mouth yet, so I just cut her off. You go to Xu's house for two more days. If she doesn't come back, I'll pick her up myself." Right?"

 “Grandma, your grandson has put you in a difficult position.”

"Forget it, go down first!" Ms. Tan had no intention of saying anything else.

Qi Xiao went back to the house and looked at the deserted house. I really didn't know what to do, so I had to go to Mrs. Qi.

Mrs. Qi sat at the edge of the round table, leaning her elbows on the table and covering her eyes with her hands. I just wanted to keep the water from the well and the water from the river, but they were not happy.

 “Mother!” Qi Xiao came in.

Mrs. Qi put down her hand and looked at him without speaking.

“Last time, you said you wanted to do something for your son, and you tried your best to do whatever your son wanted. Does that still count?!”

 “Forget it!”

Qi Xiao looked in disbelief, "You..."

"I said it at the time, but you refused. Do you remember? That will be invalid! Qi Xiao, there are some things that if you miss them, there is nothing you can do."

"But..." Before asking, Qi Xiao slammed the door and left. But now, he doesn't want to do that to his mother again. Moreover, if Minghui's matter is not resolved, what will happen next?

"I know you want that shop... you have been thinking about my dowry and private property." Mrs. Qi said without emotion.

"I didn't..." Qi Xiao replied subconsciously, he didn't want it, it was Minghui who wanted it.

 But they are one...there is no use explaining!

This feeling is so uncomfortable!

"About the shop, I promised Wen Yu when I made the engagement to Xiao Wu. She also made preparations to take over. But when I asked you, if you said you wanted those two shops, I would risk everything with Wen. If I promise, I will give it to you, but it's no longer possible, it's been packed up and it's about to open..."

"What are you talking about? What is your promise worth?" Qi Xiao became anxious again.

"I promise you a thousand pieces of gold. If you don't accept it, forget it!" Mrs. Qi ignored him.

“But how can a girl from the Wen family do it?! How can such a big shop be supported with less than tens of thousands taels of silver? Where did you get so much silver?”

"What you said is strange! Where did she get the money? How could I know? Why should I ask? Does it have anything to do with me?"

Mrs. Qi's series of questions left Qi Xiao speechless.

"Mother...I am the eldest son, and Mrs. Xu is going to give birth to a grandson for you again! Why do you do this to me..."

"Qi Xiao, I am your biological mother. You have warmth for Minghui, and you have a smile for your grandmother. But when you turn to me, you are cold-hearted. Why do you treat me like this?"

 “Grandma is good to me. That's why I respect her!”

“She's nice to you, why don't you ask her for a shop?”

 “She was born in poverty and had nothing…”

"Then why didn't she persuade your grandfather to let you go to the Qi Family Army?! Ha! Silly son, let me point you out again: What is my last name? My last name is Cui. What about you?! Your last name is Qi! You are the eldest son and grandson! But look Look at yourself, what do you have in your hands? You are over 20 years old, what do you get from the power and wealth of the Qi family? "

"I..." Qi Xiao's eyes widened and his mind was in a mess.

"You are alone, just you, think about this well. Don't tell that stupid wife of yours! Let me tell you the truth, Qi Xiao, even if Xu Minghui never comes back, I, Cui Fengying, will not blink an eye. one time!"

 After saying that, she smiled coldly.

Reminds me of the devilish look that Aunt Cui had when she mentioned that Wen Yu was robbing the orchid boat.

 I want to be a human, but if you don't give me a chance, then I'll just be a ghost!
