Chapter 213 Coming to the head of the family 2
Ms. Zhan looked at the door, and the door of Xiang's house was slapped, and the noise outside was also instantly quieted down.
"Madam, behead madam." The butler asked what the two of them meant.
Ms. Liu twisted the veil with her fingers, and looked nervously at Mrs. Zhan.
Mrs. Zhan was silent for a while before saying: "Go and open the door."
The steward was instructed to lead the two servants behind him towards the gate. The two servants stood on one side to prevent the people from rushing in after opening the gate.
The door slowly opened a gap, the butler peeked out and saw someone hurriedly opened the door.
Several old men walked in with four or five middle-aged men.
"Old Patriarch, why are you here?"
The old man headed by him was full of white hair, a little hunchbacked, holding a cane, and his complexion was very bad: "If I don't come, wouldn't the Xiang family's reputation be ruined by a vicious woman?"
The butler nodded and bowed, not daring to speak.
Mrs. Zhan brought Mrs. Liu to meet her.
"Madam, Madam Zhan, this is the old patriarch of the Xiang family." The steward introduced.
"The old patriarch."
Mrs. Zhan and Mrs. Liu bowed to salute.
The old patriarch looked up: "Who are you two?"
"This is the general's wife, and this is the old lady of the Zhan family."
The old patriarch glanced at Mrs. Zhan and landed on Mrs. Liu, with puzzled eyes: "Madam General?"
"Yes, I met the patriarch." Liu lowered her head a little nervously.
The old patriarch snorted heavily, as if he didn't like it very much: "If you are not married, don't call me madam, Xiang Jia's family style will be misled by that vicious woman."
Mrs. Liu was taken aback, didn't get married?
Is she married?
The butler didn't know why, so he was very confused.
Mrs. Zhan heard the clues. No one in the Xiang family seemed to know that Xiang Minghou was married. She had heard of Xiang Minghou's marriage a few years ago, and it seemed that the old lady bought it for joy.
"How is the general now?" the old patriarch asked.
"The general is no longer in danger, the old patriarch can rest assured." Mrs. Zhan said.
"That's good, what about the poisonous woman."
Poison woman?
"Madam Xiang? Madam Xiang is in Xiyuan."
"Have someone bring the poisonous woman and the second wife to the door." After speaking to the old patriarch, he looked at the steward again: "Open the door, and arrange all the guards in the mansion to the door, so as not to cause chaos due to people's collision."
"Yes Yes."
"Also, let someone move a table and a few chairs to the gate." The old patriarch stroked his beard, and his face was calm since entering the mansion.
"This is the old patriarch?" Mrs. Zhan asked.
"I'll find out in a while." The old patriarch didn't say much.
The steward turned around as if remembering something, and turned back: "Old patriarch, the second master is still in a coma."
"Even if you die, you have to carry it to the gate." The old patriarch said.
The steward heard the words and immediately ordered the boy to carry the man.
The old patriarch turned his head and told the people behind him: "You wait here, I will go to see the general first."
"Yes, Patriarch."
"I will lead the way for the old patriarch." Mrs. Liu stepped forward.
The old patriarch rolled her eyes, hesitated to speak, sighed and walked away first.
Shi Liu followed, not knowing why the old patriarch didn't like her so much.
Madam Zhan shook her head and sighed, and greeted a group of people who followed the old patriarch.
"Don't bother Mrs. Zhan, we'll leave after we finish." The old man politely refused, and then a group of people walked towards the gate.
Mrs. Zhan watched the young man passing by carrying tables and chairs, and guessed something.
I'm a little worried that when the gate opens, the flow of people will be chaotic. There are not many guards at Xiang's house, so I have to ask my husband to call in some guards from the family.
Ye Qianning was surprised to hear the identity of the person who came. She heard her father and Luo Wen say that they wanted to invite the patriarch, but Luo Wen didn't go at all that day.
