ad. Just as the old village chief gently pressed beside it, a stream of water as thin as a silk thread flowed down.>The village elder said, "This is the divine water from the mountaintop. Every villa..."Qing Luo, you all go down first"

Xiao Yu sang signaled for them all to back off, after all, family matters shouldn't be aired in public. If this got out, then their parents would become the talk of the entire imperial city. 。"Yes 。Qing Luo beckoned to the servants beside her, signaling them to follow her out, and then closed the main courtyard door. 。“Husband, how much longer are you going to hide this from me” Madam Xiao’s eyes were filled with tears as she stared at Xiao Zhan tightly. “I know I haven’t been able to give the Xiao family a son, and I’ve been feeling guilty for over ten years. I’ve thought about taking a concubine for you, but you promised me back then that you would never take one in your lifetime. But now You actually have a mistress outside and even a child! Can you bear to look at me” She had not finished speaking when tears flowed down her face like rain. 。"Mother..." Xiao Yuge wanted to step forward to comfort her, but she was pushed away. 。"Ge'er, Mother has always been good to you, even knowing that you weren't her biological daughter, she treated you just like her own. But why would you even hide this from me" Xiao Fu'er's heart ached as if being twisted. 。"Mother, I'm sorry, I only just found out..." If she hadn't been reborn, she truly would have remained unaware... 。Xiao Zhan took a deep breath, knowing that some things had to be brought to light. 。"Madam, it's my fault. You know, even though I am the Prime Minister, do you know how those officials laugh at me behind my back They say I have no heir. For so many years, I dreamed of having a son. When you gave birth to F'er, you had severe bleeding and injured your roots, so you can't get pregnant again. I know it's all my fault, so for all these years, you wouldn't let me take concubines, and I obeyed you. Even if people called me childless, I accepted it...""But why didn't you just accept your fate Why did you tell me all of this" Madam Xiao wept like rain, clutching her heart tightly. Her heart was about to break. 。"Heaven brought me to meet Plum Blossom. She's just like you when you were young, so passionate about everything. I couldn't help but be captivated by her. I redeemed her until one day she came to tell me she was pregnant..." Xiao Zhan calmly recounted everything between him and Shen Plum Blossom, unaware that every word he spoke was like a sharp knife stabbing cruelly into Mrs. Xiao's heart. 。"Master, if three years ago I heard this, I would fight tooth and nail with you. However, since waking up from my last illness, I've come to understand many things. Since she gave birth to the son you cherish so much, then let us divorce. I will give her space!" Madam Xiao knew how much Xiao Zhan cared for their son. If Shen MeiHua entered as a concubine, that son would forever be considered illegitimate. Xiao Zhan would definitely not allow it, so she willingly stepped aside. She only hated herself for not being able to give birth to a son, which led to this outcome. 。“You, you’re saying what You want to divorce me” Xiao Zhan thought she would have a big fight with him, but he didn’t expect her to calmly say that she wanted to divorce him. He cared about their son, Xiaoguier, but he had never thought of divorcing his wife. After all, they were soulmates. 。"Master, if I don't leave, how can your son return rightfully Are you willing to give up your heart and soul for so many years""I..." Xiao Zhan was speechless for a moment. 。"So, we, let's part ways!" Xiao Fu’er had already cried until she was a tearful mess, but she still stubbornly turned her back, her proud self now shattered. Her husband had taken a mistress outside, and even had a son with her. Her pride and dignity were crushed. 。"Mother..." Xiao Yu Ge looked at her with sympathy too. 。"No! My lady, I will never leave you!" Xiao Zhan said with unusual seriousness at this time. 。"......" Madam Xiao's lips moved, but she remained silent in response. 。"Madam, I know this is my fault. I don't ask for your forgiveness, but believe me, I will give you an explanation." 。Xiao Zhan saw that his wife seemed determined to leave him, and he couldn't help but panic. 。"Master, you go back. I want to stay here with Ge'er for a few days." 。"Madam Xiao pulled Xiao Yuge's hand: "Ge'er, can I stay here for a few days" "Mother, you are my mother, you can stay here as long as you want." 。"Madam..." Xiao Zhan hadn't thought that his wife would find out this quickly, but he hadn't thought about how to tell her yet. He really wasn't prepared. 。"Master, if you've made up your mind, just give me a divorce letter." 。"Mrs. Xiao walked into the room with tears in her eyes, her heart shattered to pieces. Her husband scolded Fu'er and ran out for a night. She worried about him, having people search everywhere, but he was nowhere to be found. This made her think of coming to Ge'er's place, hoping Ge'er could help find him too. Unexpectedly, when she arrived here, she heard such heartbreaking news. As proud as she was, how could she accept..." 。"Madam..." Xiao Zhan still wanted to chase in and say something, but helplessly the madam had bolted the door from inside. 。"Father, it's getting late. You should go back first. I'll try to persuade Mother more." 。The pain on her face was still burning. If this slap had been from someone else, she would have retaliated long ago. But this slap was from Xiao Zhan, and she dared not, nor could she, return it. All of this was caused by Xiao Yufu's actions, so let this slap be a lesson for her. 。 Xiao Zhan helplessly left Mingzhu Mansion. 。"Miss..." Only after seeing the old master leave did Qing Luo dare to approach the courtyard and carefully look at the tightly closed door. 。"Qing Luo, go prepare some delicious food to bring over." 。Xiao Yu sang a lament and sighed helplessly, making arrangements with great resignation. 。"Okay, miss " 。"Qīng Luò only felt that the atmosphere was strange. The young lady didn't say anything, and she didn't dare to ask too much. She quickly obeyed the order and went to prepare food." 。"Mother, please open the door. " 。Xiao Yu Ge knocked on the door, and Mrs. Xiao stepped aside to let her in. 。"Mother, don't be sad, Father still cares about you very much. " 。Xiao Yu Ge could tell that, although her mother said she wanted to divorce her father, her heart wasn't in it. 。“Ge’er, you already knew this a long time ago, didn’t you” Madame Xiao seemed very calm. 。"It was when my older sister suggested we go there to learn dance that I found out. But back then, it was just a suspicion, not a certainty." 。Xiao Yuge still spoke the truth. 。“So, Fleur knew all along” At that moment, Mrs. Xiao’s disappointment was from head to toe. She hadn't expected her own daughter to stand on the other side. 。Xiao Yu sang shook her head, indicating that she didn't know either. She didn't have the habit of slandering people behind their backs. As for what really happened, she believed that people's eyes were discerning. 。"Gē'er, you tell your mother the truth, did Lan Aunt really come at your behest to deliberately make up that story" Even now, Xiao Fu ren was beginning to suspect the events of the past. 。or was momentarily speechless. He had, of course, heard some of the outside clamor and at this moment, Xiao Yu Ge's suggestion was indeed good, but..."No! I won't break off the engagement!" At this m...
