When he finally confirmed the changes in his body, the look in Old Madame Xu's eyes when he looked at Dong Shu was completely different from before.
Previously, when Old Madame Xu had only heard Xu Shiqiu and Xu Yanzhu talk about Dong Shu's miracles, although she didn't have any suspicions about it, she didn't really believe it either.
”Good, good, good. To be able to marry a wife like you at this time of year is a blessing to our Xu Family. ” After Old Madame Xu sincerely said this, Xu Shiqiu and Xu Yanzhu looked at her excitedly.
After sensing the looks in her son's and granddaughter's eyes, Old Madame Xu realized that she had been too anxious just now. Fortunately, there were no outsiders here, otherwise, she would have exposed that Madame Dong was not ordinary.
”Madame Dong, I'm much better now. You are pregnant, so you should sit by the side of the bed to rest. Mom, Shiqiu and Yanzhu should talk.”
Hearing Old Madame Xu's words, Dong Shu naturally did not stay by her side anymore. She obediently walked to the side of the bed and sat down, then moved her mother-in-law's line of sight out of the way for Hubby and Yanzhu.
Seeing Dong Shu's self-awareness, Old Madame Xu became more satisfied with her.
When Xu Shiqiu and Xu Yanzhu got a little closer to the front, Old Madame Xu was still smiling.
”Shiqiu, your second brother sent you a letter.” Once Old Madame Xu opened her mouth, Xu Shiqiu understood why his mother fainted from anger.
”But what did second brother say in his letter?” When Xu Shiqiu saw that Old Madame Xu had just finished speaking, he suddenly remembered what Xu Yanzhu had said before, ”Could it be about Yanzhu's marriage?”
”Mn, your second brother's letter indeed mentioned the marriage of Yanzhu.” ”Previously, I relied on my seniority to not let Yanzhu listen to your second brother's words and marry into the Jiang Family, but now, I can't.” With that said, Old Madame Xu looked at Xu Yanzhu, who was standing at the side, and sent a letter to Xu Shiqiu with guilt written all over his face.
Xu Shiqiu had a bad guess in his heart. He understood his mother's meaning; in this world, the only thing that could make his mother avoid and yet be angry was definitely related to the imperial family.
When Xu Shiqiu opened the letter his second brother had delivered, he sneered.
Xu Shiqiu really did not expect his second brother to actually do such a thing, no, perhaps he should not say anything bad about second brother. Looking at the contents of the letter, Xu Shiqiu felt that this thing was probably done by Jiang Family.
”Mother, was this done by Jiang Family?”
”Mm, although your second brother isn't smart, he's not that stupid! Other than Jiang Family, there is no one else who can do this. ” Old Madame Xu understood her own son, and understood that although Xu Xiaozhi was not very smart, he wasn't stupid.
His own sister was the main wife of the Fifth Prince and not mentioning that his nephew was the most highly regarded eldest son of the Fifth Prince, the other two sons of the Fifth Prince were also his nephews.
As long as the Fifth Prince ascends the throne, he would instantly become the Imperial Uncle.
Although his relationship with his sister wasn't very good, as long as he wasn't confused and didn't cause trouble, then he would be rich for the rest of his life.
Thus, the only thing that could make the imperial concubine issue a marriage decree when she was in charge of the Phoenix Seal was the possibility that her family had an inexhaustible amount of silver in Jiang Family.
”Mother, you mean that your Jiang Family has gone with your imperial concubine?” Xu Shiqiu felt that his mother's marriage to was not just something that had been set in stone. More importantly, he was afraid that her Jiang Family had probably turned to the imperial concubine.
”Mn, now that you are married and have children, Mother does not plan to keep this matter a secret from you and Yanzhu.” After experiencing today's events, Old Madame Xu had also realized that she was indeed old. She was worried that she would die at any moment, so she decided to not care about the consequences of revealing it to others and decided to tell Xu Shiqiu and Xu Yanzhu.
When Xu Shiqiu and Xu Yanzhu heard Old Madame Xu's words, the uncle and nephew were so shocked that they wanted to say something, but Old Madame Xu only looked at them and shook her head, ”Don't worry, what I'm telling you today is not to say my last words, but that I'm worried that if you guys don't understand these things, you will suffer losses in the future.”
After Old Madame Xu had finished speaking, she looked at Xu Yanzhu and sighed: ”I'm afraid there's already no leeway for the marriage between Yanzhu and Jiang Family. If we don't talk about this matter, Yanzhu will probably be at a disadvantage in the future.”
After saying all this to Xu Yanzhu, Old Madame Xu then looked at Xu Shiqiu and said, ”As for your Shiqiu, the reason mother told you all this today, was because she wanted you to remember that if you have the chance in the future, you must avenge your father.”
”Mother!”
Xu Shiqiu never thought that his mother would actually say such a thing.
He nervously clenched his fists. Because of the fear of what his mother was about to say, his clenched fists actually began to tremble.
”Shiqiu, don't be nervous. Your father did indeed choose to die voluntarily back then. However, the reason why your father voluntarily went to die, was because of the Third Prince! ”
Old Madame Xu said as she recalled the news she had received all those years ago. She had long known that the royal family was filthy, but she hadn't expected them to be so dirty.
