As Xie Shengnan said, the people of the Xie family would not allow Huo Yucheng to leave the Xie family.

Pei Yuxi had just been discharged from the hospital and had not yet returned home when she saw several people in dark clothes standing at the door.

They were all holding gifts in their hands. The man in the middle was wearing a Tang suit, with gray hair and a fairly tall figure. When he noticed Pei Yuxi and Wen Jingshu coming back, he turned around and looked over.

Especially when he saw Wen Jingshu, a smile appeared on his face: "Jingshu, you are finally back."

When Wen Jingshu saw this person, his eyelids twitched a few times.

What is this person doing here?

Pei Yuxi knew this person. Wasn’t he the uncle who spoke for Xie Tianchen at the door of the Xie family’s patriarch that day?

This construction worker is a very important figure even in the entire family, and his words carry a lot of weight.

Now he was looking at Wen Jingshu with a smile on his face, and by the way, his gaze fell on Su Chaoxi.

"It seems that my nephew's wife is recovering well."

As the saying goes, don't hit the smiling person.

What's more, this uncle is quite nice to Wen Jingshu.

Wen Jingshu forced a smile on his face, looked at his uncle and asked, "Why are you here?"

My uncle looked smiling, and he was surrounded by people from the clan.

And they are not of a particularly young generation, at least they are of the same generation as Wen Jingshu.

After seeing Wen Jingshu asking, Huo Yucheng's cousin next to him said, "We came here today specifically to see my niece's wife."

As he said this, he looked at Pei Yuxi with a look of relief on his face: "It seems that he has recovered well, so we are relieved."

Wen Jingshu didn't know what to say, so he politely invited them into his home.

These people also knocked on the door when they came.

When they saw that Wen Jingshu and Pei Yuxi were not at home, they asked their family members when they would be back.

When I heard them say they were almost there, I just waited at the door.

This actually makes them appear more sincere.

Now invited in by Wen Jingshu, everyone smiled and walked in quickly.

Pei Yuxi thought to herself that these were some old foxes.

Wen Jingshu immediately told the servant to make tea after he walked in, then looked at his uncle and said, "What's the matter that brought you here so specially?"

The uncle looked at Wen Jingshu with a smile, and said with a little blame: "It's nothing, so can't I, as an elder, come to see you? What's more, my grandson's wife is injured and in this state. I always feel a little uncomfortable if I don't come to see her. Now that I see that she is fine, I feel relieved."

Wen Jingshu said with a fake smile: "Of course it's nothing serious, but he was injured like this and stayed in the hospital for several days. It's inevitable that he must be traumatized physically and mentally. It's all my fault. If I was at home that day, the old lady wouldn't have found someone to vent her anger on. You were there that day, right?"

The smile on my uncle's face froze for a moment, and then he coughed lightly: "There were quite a lot of people in the ancestral hall that day, so I didn't pay attention to what happened. I didn't expect your mother-in-law to be so impulsive. If I had known earlier, I would definitely stop her."

Pei Yuxi heard her uncle's excuse, but in the end she didn't say anything.

After all, compared to Old Lady Xie, she was a complete outsider, so it was normal for her uncle to help Old Lady Xie.

Wen Jingshu seemed to be unable to listen any more, and said softly: "So that's the case. I've seen you and Xie Tianchen get pretty close recently, and I was wondering if you were involved in this matter. Now that it seems like this, it should be over."

My uncle's face became even more embarrassed.

Soon, the uncle explained the purpose of his visit: "Actually, Jingshu, I came here today to ask you to persuade Tianyin. After all, the Xie family is not as good as before. You know what the Xie family was like before. Now the most important thing for us is to unite as a family. If someone creates division, it will be fatal to the entire family. What do you think?"

Wen Jingshu pretended not to understand and asked, "Engineer Su, what do you mean? Do you mean someone is trying to divide our family?"

The uncle's face immediately darkened, and he said seriously: "You also know that what we value most in the Xie family is unity. Now that Tianyin wants to leave the family, it has become such a big deal that even people outside know about it. This is very disadvantageous to our Xie family, so I hope you can persuade him that Wanshi should still consider the family first. After all, he is now the eldest grandson of this generation. The elders in our entire family value Tianyin very much. We can temporarily regard what he said that day as angry words, but if he really continues like this, it will not be good for anyone. As Tianyin's mother, you have an even greater obligation to persuade your son to return to the right path, so the matter of persuading Tianyin to return to the family is left to you."

Wen Jing was even more confused: "What does uncle mean by this?"

The uncle said in a deep voice with some displeasure on his face: "Jingshu, you know what I mean. Tianyin is still a child of the Xie family no matter what. He must not leave the Xie family and let others laugh at him!"

Over the past few days, because of the uproar caused by Huo Yucheng, the entire family has lost face when they go out.

Everyone was making fun of the Xie family, saying that they were simply getting senile and confused. Not only were they getting worse as they got older, but now they couldn't even keep a single descendant.

My uncle was also under pressure to persuade Mrs. Xie, but Mrs. Xie had been arrogant all her life, so how could she bow her head so easily?

So my uncle had no choice but to sacrifice his reputation to persuade her.

Wen Jingshu looked as if he had suddenly realized something: "So you came here today mainly for the family's reputation, not for Tian Yin's return to the family?"

The uncle straightened his face and said, "What are you talking about? Tianyin is originally a member of our family. He has not left yet. How can he return? The most important thing now is to let him go home first, so that people outside can see that our family is actually very united, and not as divided as they imagine."

Wen Jingshu was actually very shaken in his heart. After all, he had been scolded by his family and the Xie family for many years and had developed a heart that was always considerate of the Xie family.

Now, facing his uncle's words, Wen Jingshu also felt that there was some truth in them.

Wen Jingshu subconsciously looked at Pei Yuxi.

It was obvious that he wanted to seek Pei Yuxi's advice.
