Lady Wu replied, "That's just a brothel. You must not get involved with her, or else will you lose your reputation?"
Cheng Xi laughed and said, "When she enters our Xu Family, she will be one of us. Logically speaking, we should call her Eldest Aunt, and pay respects to her as well. What's more, once this big girl Yu enters the door, if we have a good relationship with her, we might even be able to find out what's going on. Why don't we invite her over for dinner today? After all, we will be the Cheng Family Member s from now on, so we should be able to express our opinion as well. "
Lady Wu hurriedly said, "Don't do that. Your father hates these kinds of people the most."
Cheng Xi smiled and replied, "Have you forgotten that this big miss Yu was able to enter our Cheng Family door thanks to father? Why would father object to us inviting her over? Besides, I'm not asking her to come by herself. Let's go and invite Uncle Milk and the others over, I'll go in a while. "
Lady Wu saw that Cheng Xi was extremely confident, and what Cheng Xi said made sense, so she could not stop him from dragging her. She nodded and replied, "Alright, it's up to you."
Initially, Cheng Xi wanted to ask the Wu family head about Lady Yu's situation, but she did not expect Cheng Qiang's shout to suddenly come from outside, "Mother, Second Sister, Fourth Uncle is here."
Lady Wu stood up and responded loudly, "They're here." Then, he turned to Cheng Xi and said, "Go out."
The two of them left the room, the moment San Ya saw them, San Ya was already prepared to rush to Cheng Xi, but the moment they saw Lady Wu beside Cheng Xi, the two of them stopped in their tracks at the same time and looked at Lady Wu with a face full of wariness.
It was not the fault that all the children were afraid of Madame Wu. Madam Wu's voice was loud, and she had always been bullied about how difficult it was for a dead man to bring a child along with him. In order to act more imposing, she would always speak loudly like she was arguing, and after a while, she got into the habit of doing so.
The children were naturally scared when they heard this, plus the rumors about Lady Wu from the outside, about the stepmother being vicious and having her husband killed, about the adults not avoiding the gossip, about the children listening, about the children who had their own circle, about who was scarier and scarier when they got together, and about the fierce reputation of the Wu family spread among the children.
Lady Wu looked at the two trembling girls and said speechlessly, "I'm just that scary. Did I bully you or something?" Why do you always look like that when you see me? "
San Ya hurriedly shook her head, and stuttered, "N-no."
Fourth Sister then hid behind San Ya, stuck her head out, and replied with a face full of worry, "You will hit us."
Lady Wu found it funny. "When did I hit you guys?" Every time you see me, it's like a mouse seeing a cat. Alright, go play with your Second Sister. "
As if they were granted amnesty, the two girls went around Lady Wu and ran in front of Cheng Xi.
Being called over by Cheng Chen, Ma Xiufen, who was sitting right next to Cheng Dagui, as her two little girls, awkwardly smiled and said to Lady Wu, "These two girls are usually as naughty as monkeys. They don't even like to listen to my words, and it's Second Sister-in-Law who can control them all and always behave herself in front of you."
She was not such a petty person, so why would she bother with the two children? She smiled and said, "Come on, don't put on a tall hat for me, I'm still a little too fierce, these two girls are afraid of me. It seems that in the future, I'll have to restrain my temper a little, or else this grandson will be afraid of me."
Being mocked by Lady Wu herself, all the adults in the room burst out into laughter. The atmosphere also started to liven up. It was a scene of bliss and happiness.
Seeing that the adults were in a good mood, the two girls were finally relieved and went over to Cheng Xi's side, beginning to ask around curiously. Cheng Xi dealt with them for a while, thinking that she still had things to do, she sent the two of them back to the courtyard to play.
In the room, Cheng Dahua joined Cheng Chen and the others as they chatted. Ma Xiufen greeted Cheng Fang politely and then chatted with Wu Shi. On the other hand, Cheng Fang sat quietly and looked after his daughter.
When Cheng Xi saw Aunt Faang's absent-minded look, she knew that she was definitely listening to the crowd. She knew that everyone in the family knew what to say, and the things they shouldn't say wouldn't come out at a time with so many people. Cheng Xi wasn't worried at all.
Thinking that she still had to invite that big miss Yu over, she opened her mouth and said to Cheng Dagui who was seated at the head of the table, "Father, it's rare to see everyone here today.
Hearing Cheng Xi's words, Cheng Dagui frowned slightly, thinking that the originally good atmosphere, if Cheng Xi received her mother and brother to come over, he would probably become hostile again.
Cheng Dagui was still hesitating and did not reply, but Cheng Xi continued to speak, "I heard from Aunt Wu that uncle's family has a new person, we should also be welcoming him."
Cheng Xi blinked her eyes at Cheng Dagui as she spoke. Seeing Cheng Xi's expression, Cheng Dagui knew that Cheng Xi probably had some plan in mind, and would obviously not tear down Cheng Xi's stage. She nodded and replied, "That's how it should be."
Hearing that, Cheng Dahua frowned, and said: "Second Brother, why are you also involved in this matter? This is too absurd. That big miss Yu is a dirty brothel. How could she be allowed to enter the Cheng Family? "
Cheng Dagui, who would normally not tolerate any sand in his eyes, suddenly spoke up on behalf of the brothel girl, "This is all part of the past, furthermore, he was forced to do it, it is rare for the Lady Yu to be willing to live peacefully with Big Bro. He even has Big Bro's child in his stomach, so of course I have to let her in."
It was only then that Cheng Xi found out how Father had persuaded Eldest Uncle to marry this brothel girl. It turned out that Lady Yu was pregnant, the Eldest Uncle's only son had left the house and had no news about him, and this old lady was probably worried that her eldest son was gone. If she knew that this brother-in-law was pregnant with her grandson, she would definitely be moved, but she did not know if Lady Yu's pregnancy was real or fake.
Cheng Dahua was also shocked, "Why would my mother agree to let such a woman enter our house, but you are all sure that she is Big Bro's seed, and that she works in that line."
Cheng Dagui rolled his eyes at Cheng Dahua, "This is something big brother should worry about, what are you worrying about? Alright, since this matter has already been settled, big brother will take care of this person yesterday, you guys shouldn't be so shameless towards others in the future."
Cheng Dahua worriedly looked at his brother, "Second Brother, are you also enchanted by that coquettish fox?"
"What are you saying? Don't you know what kind of person your Second Brother is?"
As soon as Cheng Dahua finished speaking, he regretted it immediately. He knew very well what kind of person his Second Brother was, and would never do something like big brother. He embarrassedly touched his nose and replied, "I was just casually speaking, don't take it seriously Second Brother."
Cheng Dagui waved his hand nonchalantly, then turned to Cheng Xi, "Hurry up and go."
Wu Xiufen stood up and said, "Xi, I will go with you."
At this time, Cheng Fang, who had been listening at the side without a word, finally could not hold back and spoke out, "Second noble brother, do you mean that Brother Dafu wants to marry that kind of woman? How can that be, Cheng Family s can't let this kind of woman in, it would embarrass us, do you know about this? "
When Lady Wu heard Cheng Fang's questioning tone, she mocked, "You're even a married woman, how are you going to interfere in the matter of Cheng Family?"
Cheng Fang shook her head: "Second sister in law, that is not what I meant, it's just that this matter is really a bit inappropriate, you guys should have discussed it with the elders before deciding."
Lady Wu snorted coldly. "Since that's not what you mean, then don't say too much."
Cheng Fang frowned, as if shshewanted to say something, but seeing that the faces of the Cheng Family people had changed, she realised that it was not appropriate to say these words, and immediately changed to a gentle smile, then replied, "I was worrying for nothing." After that, he did not speak again in silence.
Cheng Xi did not speak a word the entire time. Seeing that no one said a word, she opened her mouth and said, "Then I'll be leaving first."
Ma Xiufen, who was sitting with Lady Wu, stood up and said, "I'm fine too. I'll go with you."
Cheng Xi did not mind and nodded, smiling as she replied, "Sure."
Then the two of them went out together.
Once they were out of the courtyard, Ma Xiufeng couldn't wait and asked in a low voice, "Your father actually supported that woman to enter our Cheng Family. Tell me, do you have any plans?"
Cheng Xi laughed and also replied softly, "Isn't that simple? With big miss Yu entering big uncle's house, how would a Eldest Aunt like me, who likes living such an arrogant life, have a good life?"
Ma Xiufeng was also not fond of taking advantage of people, and from time to time, she would even go to her own house to play for money. Sister-in-law who was full of problems, upon hearing Cheng Xi's words, her eyes lit up, and she responded: "Why didn't I think, that the good days in Lady Zhang are about to come to an end."
Ma Xiufeng quickened her pace and said excitedly, "Let's go faster." She was looking forward to see what the Lady Zhang looked like now.
On the way, Cheng Xi told Fourth Aunt about the good things that the Lady Zhang had done recently.
The old Cheng Family courtyard wasn't too far away from Cheng Xi's house. While the two of them were talking, they had already arrived in a short amount of time.
Before the two of them even reached the door, they saw Old Madam Cheng walking back happily from not too far away with two bags of medicine in her hands, just in time to bump into them at the door.
Seeing the two of them, the Old Madam Cheng asked with a rare smile, "Why did you two come together?"
Cheng Xi took a step forward and smiled, "Milk, Fourth Uncle is already here. Father said that our Cheng Family is very rare, and we should all be happy together since we are back. So he specially asked me and Fourth Aunt to come over to bring you to go eat with Uncle."
The smile on Old Madam Cheng's wrinkled face became even wider, as she nodded her head and replied, "Okay, okay, Second Brother is indeed thoughtful, let's enter the house first, we'll go there together later."
Ma Xiufen came to take the medicine from Old Madam Cheng's hands and helped the Old Granny enter the house.
