Chapter 37: Public Apology

Before getting married, Mama Zhang once told Lin Shuran that there was an unwritten rule in the inner house of the Jin Dynasty, that is, as a concubine, you should not go out of the house at will, even if you have the permission of the housewife and the master, you must cover your face with a veil when you go out.

Of course, there are exceptions, but the big families who pay more attention to the rules of the concubines generally have stricter rules in the back house, and those concubines are like concubines in the deep palace, and they rarely go out to see people.

At this time, Zhai Yao and Aunt Guo both flashed embarrassment on their faces, and Zhai Yao glared at Aunt Guo even more viciously, as if she was disgusted that she had gone out recklessly to embarrass him, and Aunt Guo pouted aggrievedly, she was also too worried about her son, and she began to complain about Lin Shuran in her heart.

This General Xu's wife is too, why did she mention this, but Aunt Guo was a little secretly happy, someone actually recognized her as Mrs. Houfu, does that mean that she is one step closer to this position.

"Xu Junze, how many troubles have your stepsons made, don't Ben Hou tell you, speaking of which, this matter is not the fault of your stepsons, if they don't bully my son, can my son do this?! You still want to seek justice, and those who are bullied by them, where do they go to seek justice, you better take care of your children first! Although Zhai Yao knew that he was wrong, he didn't think it was a big deal now, it was just a joke between children, and he didn't bother to spend any more time here, "Lord Zhang, Ben Hou has already said that this matter will not be investigated, and the case will be withdrawn!" ”

After speaking, he motioned to Aunt Guo and her youngest son Zhai Zifei to follow him out, and did not take Xu Junze, who had been sitting there firmly, in his eyes at all.

"You can go, but your son can't!" At this time, Xu Junze suddenly spoke up, and his voice was like a barrier, forcibly blocking the way of Zhai Yao and the others.

"Xu Junze, what do you want to do, don't think that you are a general now, Benhou will be afraid of you!" Zhai Yao wanted to show his momentum as a Hou Ye, but when facing Xu Junze, his momentum couldn't come up.

Xu Junze didn't pay attention to Zhai Yao, but looked at Xu Minghao and asked, "What do you want?" ”

Xu Minghao immediately understood what Xu Junze meant, he was asking him how he was willing to let Zhai Zifei go, Xu Minghao looked at Xu Junze, and understood that as long as he said it, his father would definitely help him achieve it, and then looked at Lin Shuran, and there was trust in him in those gentle eyes.

In fact, he also heard what Zhai Yao said just now, he did cause a lot of trouble before, although he didn't take the initiative to cause trouble every time, but he also caused trouble and harm to others more or less.

Therefore, he raised his head slightly, looked at Xu Junze and Lin Shuran and said, "I want Zhai Zifei to apologize to me in public, saying that he deliberately framed me." ”

"Guangping Hou, you heard it!" Xu Junze turned his gaze to Zhai Yao at this time, and the implied coercion hit him, and Zhai Yao's scalp was a little numb when Xu Junze saw it.

"Go, go!" Zhai Yao turned around and waved his hand impatiently at his son, as if he could get some face back for himself.

Aunt Guo knew that her family had to bow her head at this time, who let Xu Junze be a person who couldn't afford to provoke her, so she had to push her son distressedly, and Zhai Zifei came to Xu Minghao slowly.

"I'm sorry, I framed you!" After saying that, he turned around and ran out, and Aunt Guo had to trot behind to chase after him.

"General, can this case be closed?" Zhang Min walked to Xu Junze's side with some caution, a small case of theft made him tremble in the trial, lest he offend the imperial family and important ministers.

Xu Junze turned his head and glanced at Lin Shuran, Lin Shuran didn't expect him to suddenly look at him, was he asking for his opinion?

This kind of cognition made Lin Shuran's heart warm, then smiled slightly, nodded lightly at Xu Junze, and then heard Xu Junze say to Zhang Min: "Then it's over!" ”

Hearing this answer, Zhang Min was relieved, he was afraid that Xu Junze would hold on to the lawsuit with the Marquis of Guangping again, and then he would not have a good life.

The case was closed, Xu Minghao proved his innocence, and his whole mood improved, and he followed Xu Junze and Lin Shuran home in the same carriage, and the corners of his mouth were almost raised to the sky.

"Just so happy?" Lin Shuran was also infected by his happiness, she thought that he would be scared when she went to court, but she didn't expect him to behave calmly all the time.

"Of course!" If it weren't for Xu Junze, Xu Minghao would have wanted to hum a little song.

"People apologize to you today, don't have a day when you are the one who stands in court and apologizes!" In the past, Xu Minghao and them caused trouble, and they never went to court, Xu Junze also turned a blind eye and tried his best to help them settle behind his back, but recently he was thinking about whether his previous parenting style was right or wrong.

And the one who changed his mind was the newlywed wife sitting next to him, her parenting style for Xu Minghao's stepsons seemed to be different from others, and it was not like some people said, she looked like a vicious stepmother, she seemed to be more concerned about these children than about him, the newlywed, could it be that he couldn't make her love for a few children? What's wrong with you?

Xu Minghao lowered his head a little ashamedly, he was born because his father died in the war and his mother remarried, and no relatives were willing to raise him, so how he survived before the age of three even he didn't know, in his memory there was only a picture of starvation and freezing and being bullied wantonly, so at a young age, he used naughty mischief to vent his loneliness and dissatisfaction with the world.

Although he was later adopted by Xu Junze and had a group of brothers with the same poor background as him, he always felt that he had gained and lost, and it seemed that he had a family but still no one really loved him.

But now this feeling has changed a little, since Xu Mingye was bitten by a vicious tiger in order to save him, he suddenly understood that the brothers who had no blood relationship with him in the Xu family over the years had actually protected him openly and secretly, and it was he himself who always pushed them out, thinking that they were just pretending, after all, they were all under the fence of the Xu family.

Today in the public court, he was protected by Xu Junze and Lin Shuran again, and at that moment his frozen heart was finally completely melted, no matter what others said in the future, Xu Junze and Lin Shuran were his father and mother from then on.

"Father, mother, I won't get into trouble again, I promise!" Xu Minghao raised a hand with a vow, as if to let the two of them see his determination to change.

"I believe in you!"

"That's good!"

Although Lin Shuran and Xu Junze said different things, they both expressed their affirmation of Xu Minghao's "painful change from the past".
