Xiao Yu naturally couldn't refuse Li Su's request, after all, Wenxin's true identity had been exposed, and it was reasonable for Li Su to see her mother. In addition, he can also be considerate of Wenxin's mother hiding from him those former ministers of the Liang State, after all, if someone is an orphan or a widow, it is also appropriate to leave a way back for himself.

Although Li Yu is not an outsider, but if he wants to enter the inner house of the Song State Mansion, he still needs someone to accompany him, and it just so happens that Xiao Yu's second son Xiao Cuo, that is, Li Yu's nominal father-in-law is also there, so he took Li Su to the small courtyard where Wenxin's mother lived.

Speaking of which, the relationship between Xiao Cuo and Li Su is really complicated, originally he was Wen Xin's father, but since Wen Xin succeeded to his eldest brother who died early, he became Wen Xin's nominal uncle, and now Wen Xin's real life experience has surfaced, Xiao Cuo should be regarded as Wen Xin's uncle, which also makes the relationship between him and Li Su more and more distant.

Xiao Cuo is in his forties this year, and he doesn't inherit the good looks of their old Xiao family, but now he looks like a handsome guy in his thirties, with a rectangular face, red phoenix eyes, long eyebrows and sideburns, and a short beard under his chin, which adds a lot of charm to mature men.

Xiao Cuo is now serving in the Ministry of Rites, and he has nothing to say, and he is humble and polite, without the stinky temper of his father Xiao Yu, I heard that he was just appointed to the position of Langzhong last year, and if he rises again, he can become a waiter, only under Shangshu.

Li Su and Xiao Cuo have met a long time ago, so they are not restrained, and Xiao Cuo also knows the true identity of Wen Xin's mother and daughter, so the two have some topics to talk about, and after chatting while walking, they soon arrived at the small courtyard where Wen Xin's mother lived. It's just that he hasn't waited for Li Su to get closer. Then I heard a woman crying in the courtyard. And it sounds like there's more than one person. Li Su could tell that there was Wen Xin's voice among them, and as for the other one, it was probably Wen Xin's mother.

"Father-in-law. It seems that it is really not the right time for us to come, why don't you please come back first, and I will wait here for a while before going in?" Although Xiao Cuo is not Wen Xin's biological father. But people at least raised Wen Xin from childhood to adulthood, and he also heard Wen Xin say that Xiao Cuo also has a preference for Wen Xin's daughter, and he simply raised her as his own daughter, and it is precisely because of this that Li Su has always insisted on calling the other party's father-in-law, Xiao Cuo did not agree at first, but he had no choice but to resist Li Su, and finally had to acquiesce.

Xiao Cuo has been near this small courtyard since he came. There seemed to be a hint of nervousness on his face, and he didn't know what he was thinking in his head, and it took a while for Li Su to finish speaking. Only then did he react: "Ah...... No. I haven't seen Xiande for a long time, so I'll accompany Your Highness here! ”

Wen Xin's mother was originally Xiao Miao's virtuous concubine. After the fall of the Liang Kingdom, she took the word Xiande as her name to show that she would never forget her identity.

Li Su looked at Xiao Cuo's unrelenting appearance, and felt a little strange in his heart, in his impression, this father-in-law has always been an extremely calm person, no matter what happens, he can maintain a calm appearance. But now the other party is showing a strange nervousness, and the reason is that he wants to meet Wen Xin's mother, is it ......

Thinking of this, Li Su carefully observed his old man, and the more he looked at it, the more he felt like it. Although Wen Xin's mother is Xiao Cuo's nominal concubine, in fact, there is no deviance between the two at all, and since Wen Xin's mother can become Xiao Miao's concubine, she must also be a very beautiful woman, which can be seen from Wen Xin, Xiao Cuo often gets along with such a beautiful woman, coupled with the other party's noble background, it is natural to be emotional.

Although Xiao Cuo and Wen Xin's mothers are not young, as a later generation, Li Su understands this kind of relationship very well, after all, there is nothing even in twilight love, let alone a love affair in the prime of life. However, understanding is understanding, Li Su doesn't plan to interfere, Xiao Cuo is just wrong, the other party is Wenxin's mother, if he messes things up, maybe he will be implicated himself, so there is no need to cause this kind of trouble.

A pair of Weng sons-in-law waited outside the door for a long time, and finally waited until the crying in the courtyard dissipated, and waited for a while, Li Su came forward to knock on the door, with the sound of heavy footsteps outside the door, Li Su knew when he heard it, it must be the tiger aunt who came with Wenxin, and sure enough, as he expected, it was the tall tiger aunt who opened the courtyard door.

Aunt Tiger opened the door and saw Li Su and Xiao Cuo standing outside, and she was also stunned at the moment, wondering how the two of them could come together? Therefore, after a while, he reacted and said, "Your Highness, please come in, Madam has been waiting for you for a long time!" ”

Li Su heard that Wen Xin's mother expected him to come, and he was not surprised in his heart, from the mouths of Lu Hong and Aunt Hu and others, he had already learned that his mother-in-law was not a simple woman, otherwise he would not be able to control Lu Hong's gang after Xiao Miao's death.

Followed Aunt Hu into the courtyard where Wenxin's mother lived, this yard is not big, except for the main house and the wings on the left and right, there are no other houses, but this courtyard is arranged very elegantly, from the gate to the main house there is only a winding gravel path, the rest of the place is planted with flowers and plants, and in front of the right wing, there is a very tall duck's foot tree, the dense shade covers the small half of the yard, there is a stone table under the tree, and five stone benches are placed around the stone table in the shape of plum blossoms. Wen Xin and a middle-aged beautiful woman were sitting there talking in a low voice. Presumably she is Wenxin's mother Zhou, that is, the virtuous concubine of Nanliang.

"Son-in-law to meet my mother!" Although he has been married to Wen Xin for so long, it is the first time that Li Yu has officially met him, so as soon as he saw Zhou, he immediately bowed down and saluted, and at the same time, his eyes were secretly looking at this virtuous concubine of Nanliang.

"Your Highness, please get up, the women of the people deserve such a big gift!" Zhou Shi looked at Li Su a few times with sharp eyes, and then said with a smile. This virtuous concubine of Nanliang is only forty years old, and her eyebrows and eyes are very similar to Wen Xin, but unlike Wen Xin's elegant and demure nature, this virtuous concubine exudes a mature and beautiful aura all over her body. In addition, whether it is Zhou or Wen Xin, the eyes of the two are red, and even a little swollen, obviously they were crying very much just now.

"Mother, you're polite, since you are Wenxin's mother, you are naturally my Li Su's mother!" Li has a sweet mouth and thick skin, and he doesn't have the shelf of a prince, so he can say anything, so Zhou has a good impression of him.

"Hehe, His Royal Highness King Qi, please take a seat!" Zhou smiled and pointed to the stone bench next to Wen Xin and said.

After Li Su thanked him, he walked over and sat down. However, there was also Xiao Cuo with him, and after Li Su sat down, only Xiao Cuo was left standing there alone, looking a little embarrassed. Zhou didn't seem to like Xiao Cuo very much, frowned and glanced at the other party, and then said: "Mr. Xiao, I have something to say with my daughter and His Royal Highness, do you want to avoid it!" ”

This is the courtyard of the Zhou family, except for the three of them, there is only one tiger aunt, so there is no need to act in any more dramas, and Xiao Cuo is directly called Mr. However, Wen Xin heard that her mother was going to drive away Xiao Cuo, but she felt a little unbearable in her heart, after all, in her heart, she still regarded the other party as her father.

"What Xiande said is that I actually don't have anything to do, I just want to come to see you, since you have something to talk about, then I will retire first!" Xiao mistakenly arrived, Zhou directly called himself Mr. Xiao, instead of calling him Fujun like before, his face immediately darkened, and after speaking, he turned around and left the same way.

Looking at the back of Xiao Cuo's departure, Wen Xin finally spoke: "Mother, no matter what, my father is also our benefactor, how can you be so cold to him?" ”

"Wen Xin, since you know your life experience, why do you still call Xiao Cuo your father?" Zhou said with a displeased look on his face.

Li Su saw at this time that although Xiao Cuo had a good impression of Zhou, the virtuous concubine of Southern Liang, and Zhou also found out, it was just that she probably had no intention of remarrying Xiao Cuo for various reasons, so she behaved so coldly.

"Mother is angry, Wen Xin is a loving person, and he has a father-daughter relationship with his father-in-law for more than ten years, so naturally he can't change his mouth for a while." Li Su naturally wouldn't let Wenxin's mother and daughter be unhappy because of a trivial matter, so he hurriedly forked the road.

Hearing Li Su's words, Zhou's face returned to normal, and then he looked at Li Su a few times, and suddenly showed an expression that seemed to be smiling but not smiling, and asked: "I heard that His Royal Highness is going back to Chang'an this time, and Concubine Yang wants to recruit concubines for you?" ”

As soon as Li Su heard this question, he immediately looked at Wen Xin with a wry smile, no need to ask, this must have been what she told her mother. Sure enough, Wen Xin also showed an embarrassed expression, lowered his head and did not speak.

"Mother Qiqi, the mother concubine is also in a hurry to hold her grandson, so she came up with such a solution, but I don't really agree with it, so I plan to delay it for a while, as long as I wait for Wenxin and I to have a child, and then ask the mother concubine to take back her life, and then this matter will be over." Li Su hurriedly defended himself.

It's okay for Li Su's words to fool others, but today they obviously used the wrong object. I saw that after Zhou heard Li Su's words, he smiled coldly, glanced at him and said, "Hmph! Having children? Then I want to ask you, if the two of them don't have a round house, how can they have children? ”

Zhou's words were in Li Su's ears, but they startled him, and then glanced at Wen Xin a little helplessly, although your mother and daughter have a deep relationship, you don't need to say anything to your mother, right?

But what Li Su didn't expect was that Wen Xin also had a shocked expression, and when she saw Li Su's gaze, she immediately shook her head and defended herself: "Husband, it's not me, I don't have ......"
