Go through it quickly, the host will torture and kill you indiscriminately

After Xu Wen's coaxing, Shangguan Liuer calmed down and stopped worrying about Lord Shangguan Hou's attitude towards her before, and then brought Xu Wen to Shangguan Hou's Mansion again.

Shangguan Liuer was ready to swallow his anger for Xu Wen this time, and even brought gifts back to Lord Shangguan early.

This time they entered the house smoothly, but Ran Qi still didn't show up. Although Shangguan Liu'er had called her mother affectionately before, she didn't remember anything after the goal was achieved.

Besides, Ranqi didn't want to talk to Shangguan Liu'er. If she wanted to commit suicide, she would do it by herself. Wouldn't it be nice for Ranqi to have a leisurely rest?

This time, Shangguan Liu'er came early. Shangguan Houye had not yet gone to court, so Shangguan Liu'er also waited patiently.

As soon as Shangguan Marquis returned to his residence, he heard from his servants that Shangguan Liu'er was back, and his face instantly became gloomy.

Recently, he had heard that Xu Wen often used his name to interact with people and build relationships. Fortunately, he had let the news out early, otherwise Xu Wen would have succeeded.

"Dad, are you back?" Because of Xu Wen's words, Shangguan Liu'er was surprisingly enthusiastic now, just to ask Shangguan Marquis for help.

"Yeah." Lord Shangguan hummed slightly, without any hint of happiness at all.

"Dad, aren't you happy when I come back to see you?" Shangguan Liu'er just didn't write the words "I came to you for help" on his face.

"Father-in-law" Xu Wen also saluted.

"Okay, if you have anything to do, just tell me," Lord Shangguan said in a bad tone.

Hearing this and looking at Lord Shangguan's face, Xu Wen felt a flash of unhappiness in his heart, and then quickly adjusted his mood.

"Father-in-law, my son-in-law brought Liu'er back to visit you specially."

Lord Shangguan waved his hand, "No need to, I have heard about what you have been doing outside recently."

"It's my son-in-law's fault. I will never do it again in the future." Xu Wen knew that Lord Shangguan Hou was saying that he wanted to use his status as the son-in-law of the Hou Mansion to do something.

Since he had done it and the other party knew about it, Xu Wen just admitted it openly.

"Hmph, my reputation as Lord Shangguan is not something you can ruin, nor is it something you can borrow."

"Dad, Xu Lang is my husband and your son-in-law. Not only do you not help him, but you also say such things? What do you mean?"

Xu Wen stood aside without saying anything, waiting for Shangguan Liu'er to fight for him.

"What do you mean? I won't agree to your marriage to him. If Xu Wen has any backbone, he shouldn't think about relying on his in-law connections to get into power."

"Didn't you also rely on dyeing the family to become the Marquis?"

Shangguan Liu'er was so angry that he blurted out something he shouldn't have said, and Xu Wen didn't even have time to cover his mouth.

Everyone knows that Lord Shangguan is most taboo about others saying that he relied on his in-law relationship to rise to power. Although this is a fact recognized by everyone, no one will ever mention it in front of him.

Sure enough, when Xu Wen saw Shangguan Houye's face, his face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, and he secretly cursed Shangguan Liuer in his heart for not succeeding enough and failing too much.

He had obviously promised to come back and say a few nice words to coax the Lord Shangguan, but now the relationship has become increasingly tense.

"Bang, who taught you these words? Did the Ran family say it? Or did Xu Wen say it?"

"Do you still need someone else to teach you? Who doesn't know this in the capital? You were just a poor student back then. If you didn't rely on my mother's relationship, how did you get to this position?

how? You can do this, but Xu Lang can’t? Xu Lang is also your son-in-law, so you should help him."

"Rebellious girl, get out of here, get out of here."

This time Shangguan Houye was really angry. Instead of driving people away, he told Shangguan Liu'er to get lost.

Seeing that Lord Shangguan was so angry, Xu Wen quickly grabbed Shangguan Liu'er and quietly advised him, "Liu'er, apologize to your father-in-law quickly."

How could Shangguan Liu'er listen to Xu Wen's words at this moment? Not only did he not apologize, but he also broke free from Xu Wen’s shackles

"You actually chase me away? I'm going to tell my grandmother and ask her to seek justice for me."

"Xu Lang, let's go"

"Go away, I don't have a rebellious daughter like you." Shangguan Marquis not only drove people away, but also ordered the concierge this time not to open the door when Shangguan Liu'er comes.

Xu Wen was dragged out of the house by Shangguan Liu'er, complaining all the way that Shangguan Liu'er was ignorant and had a bad temper, but he complained in his heart and could only say

"Liu'er, I see that my father-in-law is very angry. How about we go back and apologize to him?"

"No, my father is most afraid of my grandfather and grandmother, and my grandfather and grandmother love me the most. If they knew that my father had made me suffer, they would definitely help me."

"But......"

"Xu Lang, please stop talking. Dad won't even help you with such a small thing. I won't apologize to him. I'll go find my grandmother for help."

After saying that, Shangguan Liu'er took Xu Wen's hand and said, "Don't worry, Xu Lang. Dad won't help. Grandpa will definitely turn to me and he will definitely help you."

Xu Wen never knew that Shangguan Liuer was so valued in the Ran family? Moreover, the Ran family has much more say in the officialdom than Shangguan Houye.

If the Ran family is willing to help him in his career, then he will definitely surpass Shangguan Houye.

Thinking of this, Xu Wen no longer complained about Shangguan Liuer just now, and even suggested:

"Liu'er, since you have left the house today, why don't we go visit our grandfather and grandmother today?"

When they got married, the Ran family also thought the marriage was embarrassing. Mrs. Ran didn't even come to watch the ceremony, but only sent a personal maid to make it clear that she looked down on Xu Wen.

But Xu Wen didn't care about these details at all, as long as he could successfully pursue an official career.

So the two went to Ran Mansion again, this time they brought the gifts they had just given to Lord Shangguan. Lord Shangguan drove them away and even took the gifts themselves.

The two of them also accepted the gifts, and then came to Ranfu without repurchasing anything. The treatment they received at Ranfu was better than that at Shangguan Marquis, although the younger members of the Ran family didn't like Shangguan Liu'er very much, especially Shangguan. After Liu'er decided to marry Xu Wen, they looked down upon Shangguan Liu'er even more.

But Mrs. Ran likes her, so every time Shangguan Liu'er comes to Ran's house, Ran's family is not very enthusiastic, and they are just decent.

Only Mrs. Ran was enthusiastic.

Mrs. Ran was heartbroken by Shangguan Liu'er, but when Shangguan Liu'er came to her to beg her, Mrs. Ran softened her heart again.

After all, she is her granddaughter, and she looks so much like her daughter who died young, so she can't help but be soft-hearted.

Feeling soft-hearted, Mrs. Ran agreed to let Master Ran help find an official position for Xu Wen.
