Chapter 299 Meeting the In-Laws
When Liu heard Xiaocao say that a family had moved in next door, she didn't pay much attention to it at the time. But today, when she saw the backs of several people, she felt that they were familiar, so she walked up to them and asked.
I didn't expect it was really my relative, the Liu family. Since the last time I saw Xia Xueqing, the two families have never been in contact again.
Liu knew that the Xia couple lived next door, but she thought that they were in-laws after all, even though they had not been getting along well for many years.
After hearing Liu's sarcastic words, she gritted her teeth and said, "Liu, you really make me confused. Shouldn't I be happy that my daughter is doing well? Could it be that Qing'er is not your daughter?"
When Mrs. Liu heard this, her face changed immediately and she immediately changed her tone, "What nonsense are you talking about? You yourself are incapable of giving birth to a daughter, so you coax me and deceive my daughter. No matter how much I scold you, she crawled out of my belly. You will never be better than her!"
Liu rolled her eyes at her. Not wanting the child to see the quarrel between adults, she asked Ding to take Xiu'er in, and Liu said those words just now.
Xue Qing, who had just returned, overheard, "If the people in the Zhenguo Mansion knew that you were so sarcastic in Anyang, how do you think they would view your daughter, Xia Xuelian?"
Liu's face turned pale in an instant, the corners of her mouth twitched, and she was suddenly unable to utter a word. Xue Qing saw cold sweat on her forehead and sneered.
"Mom, let's go in." He pulled Liu into the door and closed it with a bang.
Xiao Cao, who was standing behind Liu, rolled her eyes and stepped forward to hold Liu's arm: "Madam, I will help you in."
At this time, Liu's legs were weak and she needed someone to support her, so she leaned half of her body on Xiaocao.
Xiaocao dragged her arm with one hand and put her arm around her shoulder with the other and returned to the Xia family.
Xiaocao helped Liu back to the bedroom and asked two maids to take good care of her.
He ran to the study to find Xia Cheng, opened the door and shouted, "Master..."
Xia Cheng heard Xiao Cao's anxious voice, but he walked in calmly: "What's wrong?"
Xiao Cao walked to the desk and whispered, "Master, my wife just had a quarrel with the new neighbor and she is sulking in her room."
Xia Cheng put down the book in his hand, looked up and saw Xiao Cao's chest and slender waist. He swallowed, stared at her chest and said, "Just let her rest for a while."
Since returning from the capital, Xia Cheng's mind has become more active. He sometimes feels annoyed facing Liu every day, so he turns his attention to Xiaocao.
Xiaocao's temperament and demeanor are youthful, and her appearance becomes more and more pleasing to the eye the more you look at her. Compared with Liu, there is simply a world of difference between them.
And the grass is naturally like a fairy in the sky.
Xiaocao was also very considerate and often brought him soup. Every time Xia Cheng took the soup from her, he would inadvertently touch Xiaocao's hand, and Xiaocao would lower her head and retreat.
"Master, you should go see the lady," Xiaocao said in a soft voice.
Xia Cheng stood up helplessly: "Okay, I'll go take a look"
Xiaocao followed Xia Cheng closely, and when they reached the bedroom, Xiaocao stayed in the outer room.
When Liu saw Xia Cheng coming, she struggled to get up. Xia Cheng came over to help her, and two maids hurried to help Liu.
Xia Cheng came over and sat beside the bed. Liu leaned against the head of the bed and said weakly, "You go down."
The two maids retreated.
Liu reached out and held Xia Cheng's hand. Only then did Xia Cheng feel that Liu's hand was cold. He was startled and asked, "Why are your hands so cold?"
Xia Cheng held Liu's hand, and she felt a little warmth, as if she had found someone to lean on: "Do you know who moved to the house next door?"
Xia Cheng shook her head, also very curious about who made her so angry?
"It's the Wu family." Liu took a deep breath and said through gritted teeth.
Xia Cheng was stunned for a moment, then he stared at Liu and asked, "Wu family, are you talking about the Wu family in Shilibao?"
Liu nodded heavily, as if she had regained her strength, and stood up: "Also, that girl actually knew that Lian'er was in the Duke's Mansion..."
This was what frightened Liu. She was afraid that Xia Xueqing would go to the capital to make trouble once she knew her life experience.
"How could she know?" Xia Cheng was also shocked and changed his mind.
"Wait a minute, don't be anxious." Xia Cheng comforted Liu and said after a moment of contemplation: "The emperor has already granted marriage to Lian'er and the eldest prince, which means that he has already recognized that this is the legitimate daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo Mansion. Even if she goes, the Duke of Zhenguo Mansion will not recognize her."
Xia Cheng's face darkened, and his eyes showed a hint of viciousness: "Looking for an opportunity..."
Made a knife-wielding motion.
Liu's eyes gradually became fierce.
Suddenly he thought of something and grabbed Xia Cheng's arm: "Master, please write a letter to Lian'er and tell her that her sister knows her identity. If she goes to the capital to find her..."
Xia Cheng immediately interrupted her and said, "I know how to write it. You take a good rest and relax. I will write a letter to Lian'er right away."
When Xiaocao saw Xia Cheng coming out, she signaled two maids to go inside to take care of Liu. When she saw Xia Cheng glance at her, she followed him to the study.
In the study, Xiao Cao sighed softly. Xia Cheng's hand, which was about to pick up the pen, stopped in mid-air and asked, "Why are you sighing?"
Xiao Cao grinded the ink naturally. Seeing Xia Cheng cared about her so much, she couldn't help but feel secretly happy: "Every day when I see you and Madam so lonely, I always think, Master is in his prime and Madam is still quite charming, why don't Master and Madam have another son?"
After hearing Xiaocao's words, Xia Cheng put down the pen in his hand and lowered his eyes.
This is also the knot in Xia Cheng's heart. How could he not want to have a son to inherit the Xia family's incense?
After giving birth to Xia Xuelian, she picked up Xia Xueqing and went all the way to Anyang. After that, no matter what she did, Liu just couldn't get pregnant.
Liu told her that once the rich family recognized the child, why would she still be afraid of having a bad life?
Lian'er's status is indeed different now, and she has money, but she always feels that something is missing. After Xiaocao's explanation, isn't it just a son that she lacks?
But Liu couldn't give birth to a son when she was young, and now she is so old, it is even more impossible for her to give birth to a son.
"Oh..." Xia Cheng sighed.
"Don't worry, sir. Just hire a good doctor and he will cure you." Xiaocao walked over the desk and stood next to Xia Cheng.
The fragrance of the young woman rushed straight into Xia Cheng's nose. Even if Liu was unable to give birth, he could still take a concubine!
Nowadays, which master doesn’t have three wives and four concubines and a lot of children? Look at yourself. You will have endless money to spend in the future, but what about women?
That useless old woman couldn't even give birth to a son.
Who will inherit my huge family business in the future? The more I thought about it, the more uncomfortable I felt.
Seeing Xiaocao's pretty face and slim figure, I felt hot under my body.
