In the front hall of the villa, Xiao Duheng, who had just come back and was sitting in the main seat, sipped tea and was silent.

Xiao Ying, who put down the bowl before he was full, suppressed his anger, faced the woman in front of him, and spoke unceremoniously: "When my brother suffered from cold disease, you took the opportunity to visit, and after you came here, you never saw anyone again when you went back, and you never sent anyone to care about and greet you, so you almost didn't ask for a divorce in person!" In the past seven or eight years, you have ignored my brother, and now that you have heard that his condition has improved and he is expected to be cured, you have come to bring up this matter again. ”

Thinking that she had just broken into the yard like wandering through her back garden, Xiao Ying was angry. If she hadn't seen her peerless brother who had become a handsome young man, how could she look straight with greedy eyes and bite the damn marriage contract again?

The woman with a pair of deep eye sockets had a smile on her face: "Sister Ying, what are you talking about?" I am always thinking about Brother Ling'er, but you also know that most of the family's business is taken care of by me, and I am really busy. No, as soon as I have time, I will come to visit Ling'er. We were engaged when we were in my father's womb, and now that we are not too young, it is natural for us to fulfill them! ”

The woman was talking, but she was thinking in her heart that the last time she saw Xiao Qianling, he was still a child with arms and legs as thin as bamboo poles, so thin that he could fly away in the wind like pieces of paper, and he was as sick as if he was dying.

Dad has always been thinking about the brother's friendship, and said that if there was no Brother Yu for him, the head of the Xiao family would not help, and the business of the family would not come back to life. If it weren't for her father's repeated orders to refrain from her privately proposing to withdraw from the marriage, they would have had nothing to do with Baiyun Villa a long time ago.

And her mother also talked to her alone, so that she could see the stakes clearly.

Once she proposes to withdraw from the marriage, it is equivalent to slapping her Xiao Duheng in the face. And it is never a good thing to make the Xiao family lose face and anger them.

Although there are cousins in the court, it is impossible to have so much spare time to meddle in their business.

If the Xiao family really turns its face against the Chongjia, it seems that they can't help it, but if they continue to play the dark methods in the business field to attack, it will also be unbearable.

No matter what, the Xiao family is also a big family, especially after Xiao Duheng married Yue Xin, the wife and husband worked together, and the business of Judantang became bigger and bigger.

Not to mention that the cousin is just a fourth-rank official in the court, even if he is the left and right prime minister of the dynasty, if he wants to move the Xiao family, he must think about it carefully.

No matter how bad Xiao Qianling's body is, as long as he is a living person who can still breathe, he will be carried over in a sedan chair when the time comes.

After entering Chongfu, as long as she doesn't abuse him in terms of food and clothing, whether she looks at him or not, whether she touches him or not, isn't it her own decision?

If he dies in Chongfu after marriage, no one else can say anything about his weak and sick body. The Chong Mansion did not treat him badly in terms of diet and daily life, and the Xiao family couldn't find fault with it to blame, so it couldn't be said that he was killed by the Chong family without evidence.

Chongmin herself is not stupid, and after listening to her mother's words, it is even more like a mouthful.

It is an exaggeration to say that this marriage is related to the rise and fall of the Chong family, but it is not good to offend the Xiao family, a big tree in the business world.

After all, people not only have a friendship with the husband of the Chong family, but also reached out to help the Chong family before.

If the Chong family divorces and breaks the contract after turning over, it will definitely be criticized as ungrateful, wolf-hearted, and dog-hearted......

Although I was warned by my father and persuaded by my mother not to withdraw from the marriage, it's always okay to ignore it, right?

So she has always regarded Xiao Qianling's thin hemp pole and small sick seedlings as non-existent as air.

But I didn't expect that after not seeing each other for a few years, Xiao Qianling's condition not only improved, but also became so beautiful and dusty.

Although he is slender and pure, his whole body does not seem to be contaminated with the slightest vulgarity of the world, and he is as holy as a fairy who does not eat the fireworks of the world.

Especially those eyes that are so clear that they are bright and beautiful, how can they not make her feel tempted by the fact that they instantly compare the two side husbands in her family to the latrine?

At this time, she was still glad that she was dragged by her father and did not withdraw from the marriage, otherwise wouldn't this big bargain be picked up by others?

At this time, Yu Xin really regretted it, if he knew that they were so unkind, where would he be impulsive and marry his sworn brother Qiao Siwei for the unborn child? Now this doll is afraid that it will hurt his son!

But if he was divorced, Baiyun Villa would be embarrassed for the time being, the key was that his son's reputation would be gone, so he didn't dare to care about the ruthlessness of the family at that time.

The son is often sick in bed, so he naturally has no confidence to blame others, as long as the other party does not mention the divorce, it will be dragged by it.

Even if he knew that Chong's daughter, Chong Min, had married a two-room husband, he didn't come to the door to ask for anything and blame him.

For him, as long as he can keep his son's reputation, the marriage, which may never be practiced, will exist in name only.

It's just that no one thought that such a nameless stubborn disease that recurred again and again would have noble people and noble hands come to help.

Now that his son's illness has improved, he is getting better day by day, and he can return to the vigor he was before he was ten years old.

The wife also said one night that she was afraid that after the Chong family got the news, she would send someone to find out the truth, but she didn't expect it to be really said by her, not only so quickly, but also Chongmin herself.

"My brother's illness has not yet recovered, so let's wait two years for this matter to be discussed!" Xiao Ying said coldly, even if she has a good cultivation, she really doesn't want to give Chong Min a good face at this time.

When Chong Min heard this, his face became annoyed: "Two years? ”

Then he smiled and said: "This, let's discuss the wedding time, anyway, I've come from a long distance and I'm tired, so let's arrange a room for me to rest first, just stay here for a few more days, take care of Qianling, how to say that he is also my fiancé, he is sick, I should serve him for a few days!" ”

As she spoke, she looked at Xiao Duheng, who had not made a sound, and the smile on her face was piled up more: "Did you say that it was your mother?" ”

Xiao Duheng sat on the main seat of the hall, and when he heard the words, he didn't look at her, and said lightly: "It's too early to call my mother." ”

Without waiting for Chong Min to refute, she said to the housekeeper: "Uncle Heng, arrange a quiet room for the guests." ”

Quiet room?? That means the farther away from Childe's yard the better! Uncle Heng understood, and immediately bowed down and asked for sensitivity.

Chong Min did not dare to be presumptuous in front of the head of the Xiao family and the househusband, and retired as a junior.

After the person left, Yu Xin slapped on the pear blossom wooden table: "Damn! ”

Xiao Duheng hurriedly put down the tea cup in his posture, scooped his hand over, and persuaded while blowing distressedly: "What are you angry with her?" Slap your hands for nothing! If you don't want Ling'er to marry, let's find a way to delay! ”

Yu Xin's eyes lit up: "You kept silent just now, are you just trying to find a way?" Have you already thought about it? ”

"I still have to ask Miss Chu for help in this matter." Xiao Duheng looked at Xiao Ying: "Ying'er, invite Miss Chu here." ”

"Wait!" When Xiao Ying turned around and was about to leave, she suddenly changed her words and said, "Let's go find her." ”

Xiao Ying said: "Mother, I understand your thoughts. It's better for me to talk about this alone. ”

Xiao Duheng thought for a while and nodded: "It's okay." ”

Chu Han, who heard all the conversations, sat quietly in the courtyard and waited for guests to come to the door. When Xiao Ying sat on the stone bench opposite her, she frowned and didn't fart for a long time, and she wasn't in a hurry, just drinking tea quietly.

And Ren Tianyou on the side is with his hands around his chest, his eyes are shining, and he looks like he is waiting to watch a good show.

"Menghan ......," Xiao Ying began, "Can you make my brother look as seriously ill as before?" ”

Chu Han didn't ask why as she expected, but said lightly: "Just stop the treatment." ”

"How's that going to work?" Xiao Ying was anxious, "I can't let my brother suffer anymore!" Besides, isn't stopping treatment the same as losing all the work done? Hey, don't you want to ask me why I asked you to do this? ”

"Oh, okay." Chu Han had no choice but to be good, "Why do you want to do this?" ”

Xiao Ying immediately told the story concisely, and when she finished speaking, she found that Chu Han was listening absentmindedly, so she watched her tap the stone table: "Menghan, are you listening to what I say?" ”

Chu Han raised his head and looked at the void: "Let her know that your brother's illness will take at least two years to get better, and it is not appropriate to be happy and sad within two years, and it is not appropriate to go out to work, and because the cold breath has been soaked for too long, even if he is better, he will lose his fertility." ”

Xiao Jing: "......"

The other party was silent for a long time, retracted his gaze, and saw that she was staring at him with wide eyes, Chu Han was helpless: "I'm not cursing your brother, but I can only say this at the moment, so that I can delay." ”

"I know." Xiao Ying nodded unexpectedly, "But...... Menghan, I want to ask you a word, can you answer me truthfully? ”

"Just ask."

Xiao Ying stared straight at her, and said not very neatly: "You are ...... to my brother Do you have...... What's the idea? ”

Chu Han lowered his eyelashes, pursed his lips, and was silent for a long time before he said, "I have ideas, or I don't have ideas, it doesn't seem to have anything to do with this matter." ”

"No, it does." Xiao Ying's expression suddenly became a little complicated, "If you have a heart for my brother, you have to help him, only by dissolving the marriage contract with dignity can you achieve positive results." ”

Chu Han whirled the teacup in his hand and said: "If you really don't want to get married, take the initiative to withdraw from the marriage, as long as you are not divorced by the woman, you can naturally save your face." ”

She stopped her finger and looked at Xiao Ying: "Even if I am interested in Ling'er, I only accept the feelings of mutual affection." I will not sacrifice others for the sake of profit, let alone myself. ”

This could not be clearer, if Xiao Qianling has affection for her, she will only consider it, otherwise it is useless to say more, she will only delay in the name of a healer, and will not really make a move. And in these short ten days, she can't understand whether Xiao Qianling has affection for her.

I will not sacrifice others, let alone myself...... Xiao Ying nodded: "Understood." ”

This guy is not the kind of woman who doesn't care about the other party's thoughts as long as she likes it.

That's a good thing, but sometimes, it's not a good thing to really, like now.
