Mrs. Zhan looked at the door. The front door of Xiang's house was banged, and the noise outside suddenly quieted down.
"Madam, Mrs. Zhan." The housekeeper asked the two of them what they meant.
Mrs. Liu twisted the handkerchief with her fingers and looked at Madam Zhan nervously.
Mrs. Zhan was silent for a few minutes before saying: "Go and open the door."
The housekeeper was ordered to lead the two boys behind him toward the door. The two boys stood aside to prevent the people from rushing in when the door was opened.
The door slowly opened a crack, and the housekeeper peeked out and saw someone hurriedly opening the door.
Several old men walked in with four or five middle-aged men.
"Old patriarch, why are you here?"
The leader, an old man with white hair and a slight stoop, was holding a cane and looked very bad: "If I didn't come, wouldn't the Xiang family be ruined by a poisonous woman?"
The butler nodded and bowed, not daring to speak.
The housekeeper turned around as if remembering something, and turned back: "Old patriarch, the second master is still in a coma."
"How is the general doing now?" the old patriarch asked.
"You'll know in a moment." The old patriarch didn't say much.
"Old patriarch."
When the housekeeper heard this, he immediately ordered the boy to carry him.
The old patriarch glanced at Mrs. Zhan and his eyes fell on Mrs. Liu, his eyebrows were puzzled: "General's wife?"
"Madam, Mrs. Zhan, this is the old patriarch of the Xiang family." the housekeeper introduced.
"I will lead the way for the old patriarch." Ms. Liu stepped forward.
The old patriarch turned around and told the people following him: "You guys wait here, I'll go see the general first."
Mrs. Liu was stunned, not getting married?
Is she married?
The housekeeper didn't know why and was very confused.
The old patriarch glanced at her, hesitated to speak, sighed and walked away first.
"Yes, patriarch."
Poisonous woman?
The old patriarch snorted loudly, as if he didn't like it very much: "Don't call me madam before we get married. The family tradition of the Xiang family will be distorted by that poisonous woman."
Mrs. Zhan heard the clues, and no one in the Xiang family seemed to know that Xiang Minghou was getting married. She had also heard about Xiang Minghou's marriage a few years ago, and it seemed that the old lady had bought it as a surprise.
"Mrs. Xiang? Mrs. Xiang is in Xiyuan."
Mrs. Zhan and Mrs. Liu bowed and saluted.
"This is the general's wife, and this is the old lady who beheads the family."
"Even if you are dead, you still have to be carried to the gate." said the old patriarch.
"Yes Yes."
The old patriarch raised his head: "Who are you two?"
"Also, ask someone to move a table and some chairs to the gate." The old patriarch stroked his beard, his expression calm since he entered the house.
"The general is no longer in danger, old patriarch, don't worry." Mrs. Zhan said.
"Have people bring the poisonous woman and the second wife to the door." After speaking to the old patriarch, he looked at the housekeeper: "Open the door and arrange all the guards in the house to the door to prevent the people from rushing into each other and causing chaos."
Mrs. Liu followed her, not knowing why the old patriarch didn't want to see her so much.
"What is this, old patriarch?" Madam Zhan asked.
Mrs. Zhan shook her head and sighed, then greeted the group of people who followed the old patriarch.
"That's good, what about the poisonous woman?"
Mrs. Zhan came forward with Mrs. Liu.
"Yes, I have met the clan leader." Ms. Liu lowered her head and felt nervous.
"Mrs. Zhan, don't bother, we'll leave as soon as we're done." The old man politely refused, and then a group of people walked towards the door.
Madam Zhan watched the boy carrying tables and chairs pass by and guessed something.
I'm a little worried that when the gate opens later, the flow of people will be chaotic, and there aren't many guards for the Xiang family, so I have to ask my husband to call in some guards for the Zhan family.
Ye Qianning was also surprised when she heard the identity of the visitor. She heard her father and Luo Wen say that they wanted to invite the clan leader, but Luo Wen didn't go at all that day.
