When Mrs. Xiao saw Xiao Yuanshan, she seemed to understand everything. She sneered, put one hand on her waist, pointed at Xiao Yuanshan's forehead with a feather duster and cursed.

"Great! I knew it. I was wondering why this little bastard came here all of a sudden. It turns out he came here just to act in front of you. What's the point of this? Ugh!"

"What right does a bastard born of a concubine have to come visit? Who does he think he is? Why is he here to give me medicine for my wounds? I think he is just here to make fun of me. Get out! Get out!"

While Madam Xiao was speaking, she was about to hit Xiao Yu'an again.

Xiao Yuanshan was still here, how could he watch Madam Xiao throwing a tantrum? He grabbed Madam Xiao's arm in a bad mood and pushed her back heavily.

"Stop it!"

The maid in the room was also startled, but when she saw her mistress fall, she immediately stepped forward to help her.

Madam Xiao fell heavily on the steps. Her butt hurt, but her heart hurt even more.

She stared at Xiao Yuanshan in disbelief, her tone full of accusations.

"You, you unfaithful man! You actually hit me for a bastard?"

Over the years, although Xiao Yuanshan protected these girls, he never hit himself for them or their children. But now Xiao Yuanshan hit himself for Xiao Yu'an!

Madam Xiao became angrier the more she thought about it. She endured the pain and stood up with the help of the maid, cursing with red eyes.

"You bastard! You are bullying me because your son is useless now, right? What's the matter? Are you going to drive me, the mistress of the house, out of the house next? So that you can raise up the young lady Feng that you've always cared about?"

"I'm telling you! Just forget about it! As long as I'm still standing here, as long as I'm alive, these bitches and their offspring will never think of getting on top of me and my son! Get out! Get out now!"

Xiao Yuanshan looked at the unreasonable Mrs. Xiao, his face turned red with anger. He had nothing to say to this shrew.

But Xiao Yu'an was still whispering his advice at this time.

"Father, please don't do this. Don't quarrel with Mother. I really didn't think this through. I should have asked before coming here. I shouldn't have done this..."

"Shut up!"

Xiao Yuanshan turned around and scolded him in annoyance, but when he saw Xiao Yu'an's head immediately lowered and his face full of self-blame, he couldn't help but soften his voice.

"What does this have to do with you? It's obviously some people who are unreasonable. You just have good intentions but they treat you like a donkey."

Mrs. Xiao stared at Xiao Yu'an with wide eyes.

This little bastard is just like his bitch mother, both know how to pretend! If he is so good at singing, why doesn't he go to the theater to be a mainstay? He makes a fool of himself in front of me all day long, damn it!

Mrs. Xiao became angry again and raised the feather duster and threw it at Xiao Yu'an.

"I'll beat you to death, you bastard! You're still acting like that. Don't think I don't know your little tricks. I'm telling you, you can't get anything of my son's!"

Xiao Yuanshan didn't expect that this shrew would beat herself in order to beat Xiao Yu'an. She was simply a lunatic.

But now the lady is in a rage, and the Cheng'en Marquis' Mansion is already being watched. If the rumor of "the king and queen fighting" spreads out, the Cheng'en Marquis' Mansion will be embarrassed again.

So Xiao Yuanshan held his anger for the time being, grabbed Xiao Yu'an's arm and pulled him out, while walking out, he turned back and cursed at Mrs. Xiao.

"Okay, okay, okay! Your son is the most precious! Others have bad intentions towards your son, so you should take good care of him yourself. Didn't you ask me to go find Feng Xiaoniang? Then I will go, as you wish!"

After saying this in a huff, Xiao Yuanshan pulled Xiao Yu'an and disappeared in an instant.

Mrs. Xiao didn't expect that Xiao Yuanshan would really leave, and she was so angry that she cried and made a fuss.

The maids were at a loss when seeing this, not knowing whether to go up and persuade or to comfort them. They just stood there blankly, looking at each other, not daring to move.

At this time, in the corridor, Xie Ruyu, who was hiding behind a pillar with a maid, saw the whole scene clearly and felt a little panicked.

She looked at the maid next to her and asked, with her belly bulging.

"What's going on? Who is that person?"

Xie Ruyu was asking about Xiao Yu'an.

The maid was specially sent by Madam Xiao to take care of Xie Ruyu. Although she was said to be serving her, in fact, she was also there to monitor her.

This maidservant was not dull or stupid. She had considered a lot before being assigned to Xie Ruyu. Right now, the whole mansion was in chaos. The eldest son was now crippled and had lost his position as the crown prince, so he could not inherit the title.

If the lady still wants to hold on to the title, her only hope is the child in Xie Ruyu's belly. Although we don't know whether it is a boy or a girl, there is still a glimmer of hope, right?

So although Xie Ruyu is a notorious woman, it has to be said that her status is still quite high nowadays.

The maidservant wanted to curry favor with the emperor, so she answered every question respectfully.

"The one just now was the second son of the Cheng'en Marquis's Mansion, but he was born to Miss Feng, and was just a bastard. Normally, the master didn't think that much of the second son, but now that the eldest son has become... like this, I'm afraid the master has other ideas in his mind."

"Although most of the words Madam said just now were harsh words spoken out of anger, I feel that the Master might really do that."

Having said that, the maid stared at Xie Ruyu's belly and spoke seriously.

"Miss Ruyu, the child in your belly is our only hope now. If it's a boy, there's still hope of getting the title back. You must take good care of him!"

Xie Ruyu obviously understood this as well.

As a bystander, she saw clearly that Marquis Xiao was obviously protecting Xiao Yu'an.

And now, in the Cheng'en Marquis's Mansion, the only one who is of the right age and has some ability is Xiao Yu'an.

Xiao Yusheng is useless now, and the child in his belly is indeed the best bargaining chip.

When Xie Ruyu thought of this, her eyes moved slightly. She did not respond to the maid's words, but put her hand on hers and said.

"It's not a good idea for mother to be like this. Let's go over and try to comfort her. Mother is old. If she keeps crying like this, it will be bad for her health. Brother Yusheng has already collapsed. We can't let mother collapse too. She is our only support."

Upon hearing this, the maid didn't say much and carefully helped Xie Ruyu over. Before she got close, the maid shouted a reminder.

"Madam, Miss Ruyu is here."

The main reason was that he was afraid that Mrs. Xiao would be so angry that she would not be able to distinguish between friend and foe. It would be bad if she accidentally hit Xie Ruyu and hurt the baby in her belly.

Hearing Xie Ruyu's name, Mrs. Xiao barely managed to regain a bit of rationality from her anger and glared at Xie Ruyu.

"What are you doing out here? Why don't you hurry back to your room and take good care of your baby! I'm telling you, if it weren't for the fact that you're carrying my grandson, I would never let a woman like you into my Cheng'en Marquis Mansion!"
