The atmosphere in the room was a bit anxious.

Zhao Ce took Su Cai'er and hid aside, away from the center of the Shura Field.

"Xiao Fangzi, give them a cup of tea."

Not knowing why, Xu Fang put away Zhao Ce's bamboo basket, then went to the kitchen to serve tea to several people.

The two people who were originally going to come to apologize were now looking at each other with a dark face, while the other looked at this and that uneasily.

Mr. Lu sat next to Qiu Shubai, with a wooden face and said nothing.

On the contrary, Qiu Shubai couldn't stand the silence and said, "Mom, these two people are here to apologize to Zhao Ce's family. Let's go in first."

Mr. Lu didn't say anything and nodded.

Just as she was about to stand up, Mr. Qiu grabbed her hand: "Xiu Niang, don't leave yet."

Mrs. Lu took out her hand, glanced at Mrs. Liu, and said with some confusion: "Please respect yourself."

Mrs. Lu originally thought that this man was dead, but she didn't want him to live well with his lovely wife by his side.

Mrs. Liu on the side "sneered".

I still don't understand what's going on. Her life has really been in vain.

She had roughly guessed it when she saw Qiu Shubai in the Du family's shop last time.

Narrowing her eyes, Mrs. Liu asked directly: "Qiu Shaobin, is this your son?"

After glancing up and down at Qiu Shubai, and then at Mrs. Lu who was being protected by him, Mrs. Liu let out a "tsk".

"Can't you give birth to a son?"

"It's a pity that the son I gave birth to is not named Liu. You won't be able to leave anything from my Liu family to your son."

Qiu Shubai's face turned pale with a "swish" sound. He pulled his mother to the side and said coldly: "Mrs. Liu, please be careful when speaking."

"Qiu's father has been dead for many years, and he doesn't dare to recognize his relatives."

Mrs. Liu helped her temples and looked at her well-maintained fingers.

"That's all, you are a loving father and a filial son, what am I doing here?"

"I came to see Zhao Yishi to apologize. You and your family just want to have a good chat."

After saying that, she got up with the others and walked up to Zhao Ce and the two men with the gift of apology she had brought.

Zhao Ce looked at Mrs. Liu and was speechless for a moment.

I gave a little reaction last time and was very surprised when I saw Qiu Shubai.

Now that she entered the house, the facts were before her eyes, and she didn't seem to mind at all.

Su Cai'er also stared with big eyes, not knowing where to look.

This scene was so chaotic that her little mind couldn't figure out what was going on.

Zhao Ce was quite calm, and nodded lightly to Madam Liu: "It's inconvenient to live in a humble house today, but Madam Liu is very polite."

Mrs. Liu looked at Zhao Ce who was much taller than her with some covetousness. This face became more and more handsome the more she looked at it.

Moreover, when he looked at his wife next to him, she was so tender. He looked up at you and changed into a very serious look.

Tsk...

If you can drag such a person to the bed and flirt with him, wouldn't it be better than those soft-faced pretty boys?

pity......

In his eyes, there is no one except his little wife.

Turning her head to look at Mr. Qiu, who had an excited face over there, Mrs. Liu smiled disdainfully in her heart.

Xu Fang, who was behind Zhao Ce, accepted the gift from Mrs. Liu, and Mrs. Liu shouted to the other side: "Are you done with the kiss?"

"After you admit it, you have to go."

Mr. Qiu looked at Mr. Lu and Qiu Shubai in front of him with some embarrassment, but unfortunately neither of them gave him much reaction.

He had no choice but to lower his voice and say, "I'll come back another day."

Mr. Lu sighed: "What else are you doing here?"

Xianggong Qiu looked at the beautiful face in front of him and said anxiously: "I, I was really seriously ill at that time, and there was nothing my family could do..."

Mrs. Lu glanced at him and smiled, her eyes seemed to be a little watery.

"Then you've been sick for a long time."

Mr. Qiu was also speechless for a moment.

Qiu Shubai said coldly: "Mom, let's go into the house."

Mr. Lu nodded and followed Qiu Shubai into the house.

Zhao Ce asked Xu Fang to send all the Liu family members out.

Outside the door, Mr. Qiu grabbed Xu Fang unwillingly and asked: "This little brother, may I ask you, Mr. Qiu..."

"When did he come to Fucheng?"

Xu Fang also kept a straight face and said, "Ms. Qiu and my husband have just come to Fucheng not long ago."

After saying that, slowly close the door.

Mrs. Liu said "Hey": "You want a son?"

Xianggong Qiu looked at her with an unhappy expression.

Madam Liu smiled softly at him: "Didn't my father say that he is going to adopt a son from another clan member soon?"

"Just like your cheap son, he is also a scholar."

After saying that, he led the people and left.

Xianggong Qiu looked at the door and followed behind with some despair.

...

Su Cai'er brought the food into the house and ate with Zhao Ce in her room.

While eating, she couldn't help but said: "Husband, is this really Mr. Qiu's father?"

This Xianggong Qiu looks like he is only in his twenties, but he has an eighteen-year-old son, which is really surprising.

But think about it, Qiu Shubai's mother, Lu, is only in her thirties this year. She is well-maintained and does not look like her age.

Zhao Ce nodded and said, "That's probably it."

I remembered how when I first met Qiu Shubai and his mother, they were pointed at by the neighbors around them.

Zhao Ce also felt that the development of this matter was really difficult to describe.

Now that Qiu Shubai has passed the scholar examination, he will take the provincial examination next year.

Seeing that his and his mother's life was getting better, he didn't want a father to suddenly appear.

This father is still a son-in-law who is laughed at.

The two of them ate and rested for a while. Su Cai'er was really worried about Mrs. Lu, so she took her embroidered basket and went to find Mrs. Lu.

Mrs. Lu was embroidering flowers in the main room. When she heard the footsteps, she accidentally pricked her finger with the needle in her hand.

She pressed it with her handkerchief and looked up at Su Caier in front of her.

"Aunt Lu..."

Mrs. Lu smiled at her, her eyes a little red.

"Cai'er is here, sit down."

She pointed to the stool next to her. Su Cai'er sat down and looked at her worriedly.

After Lu pressed it for a while, the bleeding on her finger stopped.

She took the handkerchief to the basin nearby, washed it, and spread it aside to dry casually.

When she sat down again and saw Su Caier's slightly worried eyes, she smiled and said, "I'm fine."

Su Caier asked in a low voice: "Then your hand still hurts?"

Mrs. Lu shook her head: "It doesn't hurt anymore. For those of us who learn embroidery, this is a trivial matter."

Su Cai'er didn't know what to say, so she just sat beside her and embroidered the pattern in her hands.

The room was quiet for a while, then Mrs. Lu suddenly put down her work and sighed.

Su Cai'er also stopped what she was doing and looked at Mrs. Lu beside her.

Mrs. Lu whispered: "Cai'er, are you willing to listen to me?"

Su Cai'er nodded, put the embroidery aside, and then sat obediently, pretending to listen carefully.

"I'm listening, Aunt Lu, tell me."

When Mrs. Lu saw her like this, she couldn't help but laugh.

This time the smile was a little more sincere.
