On the wedding day, I was broken off, so I remarried his uncle

When Mr. Chen saw that his wife acted as if it had nothing to do with her, he became even more depressed.

He snorted coldly and asked his servants to call the third son. It was not easy for him to discipline his third daughter-in-law directly, but he could scold his son.

When Chen Daxun came over, Chen Yunyou was reviewing his homework in the room.

Song Xile, who was sitting under the eaves sorting vegetables, asked with a smile: "I wonder why father-in-law is looking for my husband right now?"

Chen Da just lowered his head and said, "I don't know!"

He looked very distant and didn't want to reveal to the two of them that the master was angry in advance.

Chen Yunyou came out of the room and first comforted his wife, "Don't worry, I'll go over and take a look first!" After that, he walked out of the yard.

Song Xile knew in her heart that she had saved Patriarch Chen's life today, and she was afraid that her father-in-law would blame her husband.

The original text basically did not mention this Patriarch Chen, so she had an impression of him.

After Chen Mingyuan finished the county exam, the Chen clan leader died, and the title of clan leader naturally fell on old man Chen!

Today, I rescued Patriarch Chen, so his life should be safe. This is naturally not a good thing for Grandpa Chen!

It was just as Song Xile had guessed.

When Chen Yunyou walked into the main room, he saw Old Man Chen with an unhappy look on his face.

"Dad, are you looking for your son?"

Chen Yi was very rude and said straight to the point: "You should also control your wife. What does it look like for a woman to run around other people's houses all day?

"Does she think there aren't enough rumors out there, or what? Can't she just stay at home?"

When Chen Yunyou heard his father say this about his wife, his face turned cold.

He defended, "Xi Le didn't run around the village. She went out to wash clothes because her mother told her to. She is still injured, so I would rather she stay at home!"

Chen Yi was choked by his son's innocuous words.

It turned out that since he didn't say it clearly, the boy would pretend to be confused and talk about other things.

Chen Yi no longer cared about his reputation, and said bluntly without beating around the bush:

"Don't meddle in other people's family affairs in the future. If she is sick, isn't there a clinic in the city? Isn't there a doctor? Does she need a woman like her to come out in public for treatment?"

"You are a scholar, what good reputation do these have for you?"

Chen Yi said this because in this dynasty where men were superior to women and the wife was the head of the husband, this was a common ethical code.

A married woman is supposed to stay at home to take care of her husband and children.

He wanted to warn his son that he was a scholar and would pursue a career in politics in the future.

Don't let others gossip about your wife treating a man outside her family. If this gets out, will it sound good?

Chen Yi, under the pretext of considering his son's future, hoped that his son could discipline his daughter-in-law and not go to see the Chen clan leader for medical treatment again.

But could Chen Yunyou not know his father’s psychology?

He has never felt any warmth or love in this family.

Chen Yunyou just thought it was ridiculous that he was telling him that it was for his own good at this time.

His wife had already been wronged by marrying him, so how could he restrict her freedom?

His wife can do whatever she wants, and he will not stop her but will support her unconditionally.

Having made up his mind, Chen Yunyou said with difficulty: "Dad, what you said makes a lot of sense, but Xile can't be blamed for curing illnesses and saving lives. We are all from the same village, and people have come to our house for help, so we can't refuse!"

"Or next time someone comes to ask for help, we can just say that our parents don't allow us to go out, so we don't have to get involved in this mess!"

Old Master Chen was so angry at his son's words that he almost fell backwards. How could he respond like that?

But he still wanted to be the village chief. If his son replied like this, others would probably scold him for being unkind, and then the reputation he had worked so hard to build would be gone!

Old Master Chen said angrily, "Do you really want to go against me?"

Chen Yunyou said aggrievedly: "Dad, where did you get that from? Just like you said, I don't want Xile to be in the spotlight."

"But I am also a scholar. If they come to me for help and their lives are at stake, I must have a reason to refuse, right? Otherwise, if my son gets a reputation for being mean and ungrateful, how can he continue his career?"

Chen Yunyou pushed the problem to Chen Yi.

Since you don't want Xile to treat the villagers, then come up with a reason.

If others come to Joy for help, we should go there.

You make us the bad guys, and you want us to bear the bad reputation?

Where in the world can there be such a good thing?

Chen Yi knew about this matter, and if he didn't have a good reason to refuse, he wouldn't be able to stop it!

As the news that the third daughter-in-law knew medicine spread throughout the village, those poor families in the village would probably think of coming to the house for help first if they really got sick!

He was not that opposed to these things.

After all, it did him no harm if his daughter-in-law cured the people in the village. On the contrary, it was more beneficial to him.

But these two people had to go and treat that old guy.

He is still waiting for him to die soon so that he can accept the position of the patriarch of Xixi Village!

But obviously he couldn't think of any good reason to refuse the villagers who came to him for help.

If he really did this, wouldn't the image he had worked so hard to build be ruined?

He is not willing!

But there is nothing to do.

He clenched his hands at his sides into fists, then relaxed them after a while.

He knew he had lost, and without a good excuse, he couldn't stop them.

Mr. Chen said with a dark face: "You go back first!"

After Chen Yunyou bowed respectfully, he lowered his head and left.

Old Master Chen looked at the third brother's departing back, and his eyes became deep.

He had never paid close attention to this silent and invisible son before.

He seemed to realize only today that his son, who always accepted everything silently, seemed different.

He learned to shirk responsibility and to act according to the circumstances.

All these changes started when that girl married into the family!

Mr. Chen suddenly felt a little regretful that he had not agreed to this marriage.

Would there not be so many annoying things today?

Liu heard everything that was going on in the main room clearly. She went back to her bedroom before her husband came to talk to the third child.

She just wanted to make the old man understand that the third brother was not as easy to control as he appeared to be. Now she had made it clear!

Liu felt very happy, she wished the two of them could just clear up the matter.

This would be in her better interest.

On the other side, when Chen Yunyou returned to the courtyard, his face looked very bad.

Although he refused his father's request, he was still worried about Xile's situation at home.

There has never been a place for them as a couple in this house!
