    She raised her hand to hold Mother Wen who was about to slap the table, her eyebrows and eyes slightly curved.

    "If my aunt finds it boring to stay here, why don't we go to the front yard, we are all our own family members, and it's a good thing to talk separately."

    She is not afraid of losing face if she wants to leave the imperial city.

    Wen Qiong whispered softly, as if she was serious, "Auntie, be more careful when you get to the front yard, the two sons-in-law don't know much about what's going on in our Wen's mansion, so they don't make a good impression, none of them have been there for three or five years, butCan't wash it off."

    Sun looked at Wen Qiong in surprise, she didn't expect her to say this, but after thinking about it, she felt that Wen Qiong was deliberately scaring her.

    Wen Qiong is the daughter-in-law of the Hou Mansion, and the most important thing is face. If she goes back to her natal family and makes trouble, this natal family will not be able to rely on her husband's family.

    Over time, Yao Shizi will naturally look down on her.

    Sun was about to raise her voice, but she didn't expect that it was her own daughter who interrupted her.

    Second Miss Wen tugged at her sleeve calmly, and said, "Sister, how can you say that, my aunt is just joking."

    "The front yard is full of men sitting together to talk about the official affairs of the court, and we can't talk to each other in the past."

    She is a married girl. Although her husband is not comparable to the son bestowed by the emperor, he is a husband carefully selected by her father. She will also learn to be the mistress of the house in the future.

    It's fine for my aunt to make a fuss about being disgusting and disgusting mother in the past, but today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, so don't overdo it.

    Mrs. Sun was not happy, she let her words out, wouldn't Ling'er slap her in the face with her words.

    "Miss Di is overthinking, I have a sense of propriety." She stood up, "Ling'er, let's go to the front yard to greet your father."

    Miss Wen hurriedly grabbed Sun's sleeve, "Auntie, don't get involved in men's affairs, let them talk."

    As he spoke, he pushed his younger sister beside him, motioning for her to help persuade her.

    Miss Wen San didn't know what to think of, she took Sun's arm and looked at Mother Wen with sparkling eyes, "Mother, I think sister's proposal is very good, let's go there together."

    Wen Ling's face turned slightly blue, but except for her, everyone got up very cooperatively.

    Mother Wen glanced at Mrs. Sun contemptuously, and walked ahead holding Wen Qiong's hand, "Come on, let's go and see what they are talking about."

    She knew what the second girl was thinking about blocking her all the time, and she also knew that Qiong'er's words were actually trying to provoke Sun to go over.

    Her family, Qiong'er, was already planning to leave the imperial city, even though she always disagreed, she expressed her sincere satisfaction at this moment.

    Because after her daughter went to Songzhou, she was no longer the daughter-in-law of the Hou Mansion, she had no scruples, and the Wen family would not embarrass her if any embarrassing things happened.

    And Boqing... She didn't expect that bastard Wen Chenghong to help Boqing at all, and she would separate the family when her son got married, and she must not let the Wen family drag him down.

    All the female family members of the Wen Mansion walked towards the main hall of the front yard hand in hand in twos and threes.

    Mother Wen glanced sideways at her daughter who was whispering to her with a smile, and her eyes became distant.

    Where she can't go back, Qiong'er will go back for her.

    She also wanted to let herself go, but that tone was kept in her heart for most of her life. How could she be reconciled to the sufferings her children have suffered.

    That bastard has protected Mrs. Sun for twenty years, and she doesn't believe that he can protect her for the rest of her life. One day, she will vent her anger.

    In the main hall, Wen Boqing sat on the side seat near the hall door, leaning lazily on the grand master's chair, the folding fan fluttering every now and then, feeling bored in every way.

    On the other hand, Yao Xuanci lowered his eyes and looked indifferent, playing with the Runyu wrench he took off from between his thumbs.

    He was not keen on the hot topics of the other three, so when asked about him, he responded in a low voice, silently resisting the desire to find Wen Qiong.

    The jade wrench finger is round and transparent, with excellent color, and it feels cool in the palm of the hand. Yao Xuanci rubbed it casually, thinking seriously about why Aqiong suddenly got angry.

    She was fine when she came out of the dressing room. He thought there was nothing wrong with his answer of preparing sleeping incense for his mother-in-law, but she seemed to be unnatural from that moment on.

    Her last words seemed to be... Ask him where he found her brother.

    The man's dark phoenix eyes narrowed for a moment, or maybe she was confirming whether he was chasing her, instead of asking where he met Wen Boqing.

    Arjun is not happy about this?

    He did let the hidden guards follow her, and if he didn't know her movements clearly, it would only make him feel uneasy.

    After suffering for so many years in his previous life, he couldn't help but pay attention to her every moment.

    The jade ring finger was put back between the fingers, the possessive desire was like ink dripping silently into the water, piercing out from the heart suddenly and forcefully, and the aggressiveness gradually spread.

    Rather than let the hidden guards protect each other in the dark, he wants to build a strong mansion in an unknown place, and keep his Arjun there, no one can hurt her or take her away.

    Wen Boqing, who was sitting next to the hall door, seemed to have noticed something, the bamboo bone fan that was shaking suddenly stopped, got up hesitantly and walked out of the main hall.

    Father Wen thought he was going to leave without saying a word, so he slapped the table, "Boqing, what are you doing, come back!"

    Wen Boqing turned his head and glanced at Father Wen impatiently, pointed out with the tip of his fan, "The female relatives are here."

    After he finished speaking, the man in black robe who had been sitting quietly stood up suddenly and walked towards him, "Is there Arjun?"

    Before Wen Boqing could answer, he had already seen the mother and daughter walking ahead.

    Wen's mother's eyebrows and eyes were bright and dazzling, and Wen Boqing just followed her pair of smiling peach blossom eyes.

    And Wen Qiong's gentle and dignified temperament is more like her mother, but Wen's mother has experienced years of precipitation, and she has a bit of grace.

    The mother and daughter came hand in hand, one vermilion silk and the other blue satin, which were particularly eye-catching.

    As soon as Wen Qiong raised her head, she saw a handsome man in a gold round-neck robe with black undertones standing under the eaves, staring at her without concealing his gaze.

    She lowered her eyes, avoiding his gaze.

    Every time she left for a while, this person was like this when she reappeared, and Wen Qiong couldn't figure out the reason for this change.

    Yao Xuanci walked down the steps, "Ah Qiong, mother-in-law."

    Wen Boqing also put away his fan, and stepped forward to meet him, "Why are you here?"

    Mother Wen smiled and said, "The left and right are also a bit boring. Qiong'er and Mrs. Sun wanted to come to the front yard, so they came."

    Hearing this, Wen Boqing raised his gaze to the three mother and daughter who came after him, and did not shy away from the presence of Yao Xuanci, "Are you arguing again?"

    Wen Qiong had already followed Yao Xuanci up the steps, and said calmly, "She wants to have fun, so naturally she wants something new."

    As he spoke, he curtsied to Father Wen who had already come out, "Father."

    She raised her eyes and smiled slightly, "Aunt Sun misses all of you, so we're here to drink tea with you."

    Father Wen frowned when he heard the words. He always felt that it was not that simple, so he heard Wen Qiong go on to say, "By the way, let's talk about my frailty and pregnancy."

    "Auntie is very interested."

    Immediately, her eyes turned slightly, and she looked at Yao Xuanci who was beside her, "Perhaps, you are also very interested in this matter."

    Miss Wen's husband heard something was wrong, and watched silently from the side.

    Father Wen was about to break out in a cold sweat, and his eyes were solemn, "Nonsense, what's wrong with talking about the Mid-Autumn Festival, I have to talk about these old sesame seeds and rotten millet."

    He had heard about Wen Qiong's current situation from Wen's mother. The child in the womb of the eldest daughter is now the grandson of the Hou family.

    Father Wen turned to Mother Wen who was on the side, frowning tightly into a word of Chuan, and urged nervously, "Hurry up and take the female relatives back, what's the point of staying here, it will always add to the chaos."

    However, Yao Xuanci knew how Wen Qiong fell into the cold pool.

    He glanced at the three mother and daughter who came behind him, their voices were not too loud, just enough for everyone to hear his every word clearly.

    "It means that you were pushed into the frozen lake by the second girl in the winter?"

    Father Wen was startled, and looked at Wen Qiong angrily. The family ugliness must not be exposed, she was deliberately telling people to laugh at her this time!

    Mother Wen had already entered the main hall, and asked the maidservant to bring some chairs and stools over, and sat calmly on the right side of the main seat.

    "Don't stand still, sit down and chat, the little reunion dinner will be ready in a while."

    The female relatives sat down carefully, and the second girl Wen looked at her husband anxiously, seeing that he didn't even send her a heartfelt greeting, she cast a glance at her biological mother in annoyance.

    It's a good family dinner, but you want to mention those old things, why don't you think about her as a daughter!

    Thinking about it, she secretly glanced at Yao Xuanci who was beside Wen Qiong, and happened to meet those dark eyes. His gaze swept across her pregnant belly, making the second girl Wen subconsciously protect her belly.

    She recalled that moment just now, and comforted herself, saying that her brother-in-law is an upright gentleman, and he probably couldn't do something that must be retribution.

    Mrs. Sun had already realized that she had been fooled, so she didn't mention a word to Wen Qiong, and chatted enthusiastically about the interesting things she heard about the imperial city recently.

    Father Wen also intentionally covered up the matter, but no matter how he tried to save it, the atmosphere in the hall was always cold and indifferent, which couldn't hide the weirdness.

    Then it was broken by Yao Xuanci, "Aunt Sun is interested in my wife's pregnancy, why don't you continue talking."

    He didn't play with the jade finger anymore, but held Wen Qiong's palm in his palm, pinched her white fingertips slowly, poked the painful spot, and said softly, "Aunt Sun is still guilty and dare not mention it again."

    Wen Boqing's thin lips curled up, and he stretched out his folding fan and leaned lazily on the back of the chair. Mother Wen looked at her son-in-law in surprise, and then she noticed the two hands holding each other, and she froze for a moment.

    Mother Wen was not the only one who noticed their silent and intimate gestures, her eyes seemed to fall on the man in the black robe.

    Mrs. Sun was sitting opposite, just in time to meet Yao Xuanci's deep gaze, and her heart skipped a beat.

    Sun knows that Father Wen is used to her making troubles, so he only dares to make trouble in Wen's residence, especially loves to confront Mother Wen, and has always been arrogant and has no scruples.

    But when the person came, her feverish mind suddenly cleared up, and she calmly brushed the hair by her ear.

    "Back when the second girl was young, she had already learned her lesson and was punished. Now that the first daughter is pregnant, the concubine is worried about her health, so I only questioned her a few times."

    "Master, don't misunderstand the meaning of being a concubine."

    Father Wen glanced at Mrs. Sun with satisfaction, Mrs. Sun exhaled slowly, but Wen Boqing who was beside him suddenly spoke.

    "Yao Shizi, why don't you ask, what kind of punishment did Wen Ling receive after Ah Qiong nearly drowned and recuperated for more than a year?"

    Eldest brother Shu didn't hold his breath in the end, "Second brother, what do you mean by that, you already punished Ling'er back then, do you think it's not enough to relieve your anger and you need to punish again?"

    "Boqing." Father Wen also looked at Wen Boqing warningly, feeling very headache.

    "The whole family will be there on the day of the little reunion. Ling'er is pregnant with your nephew, so don't make any more trouble."

    Wen Boqing waved the folding fan lightly, without giving a slight sneer.

    Father Wen's face turned red with anger at this sneer, he didn't have much face left, and this time he was about to lose it all.

    He held back his anger, and cast his eyes on Wen Qiong who had been quiet all along, "Qioner, do you want to punish your sister again?"

    If punishing once can completely expose the matter, then punish again, it's not a big deal.

    Wen Ling heard the hidden meaning in her father's words, she was already upset because of her husband's indifference, so she suddenly wept aloud in aggrieved voice.

    As a married daughter, when she went back to her natal home, she was not only cheated by her biological mother, but also punished in front of her husband. How could she hold her head up in front of her husband's family in the future!

    If today's incident gets out, she will lose her reputation even more!

    All of a sudden, those who watched the show in secret, those who kept silent, and those who desperately hoped that this matter would end, all eyes fell on the woman in blue.

    Wen Qiong's hands became hot from kneading, and her white fingertips were slightly red. Under the eyes of many people, she pulled her hand from Yao Xuanci's palm.

    Just as the voice stuck in his throat, the hand was squeezed back again.

    "..."

    She pulled it out again and calmly cleared her throat.

    The author has something to say:

    The next chapter must be the end of the Wen family turmoil

    Good night
