The yard was drizzling. I didn't want to go anywhere without Xi Zhan. My fingers tightly grabbed the skirt on my waist and didn't know what to do for a moment.

The man knew my concerns and I was waiting for Xi Zhan. He bent over deeply and his low voice tempted me, "Miss Shi, the master of the hometown has something important to you for you."

I suppressed my nervousness and asked, "What's it?"

The man replied: "Things are favorable to Mr. Yuxi."

Why did Xi Zhan come to me?!

I said directly: "You can wait for Xi Zhan to come back..."

The man who bent over and interrupted me with no humility and arrogance, "Ms. Shi, it is related to Mr. Xi's safety. As a father, the head of the hometown is very worried and wants you to keep a document for him."

No matter what I say, he can pick it up for me. It seems that Xi Zhan’s father must see me, and he must also hide it from Xi Zhan. The matter must be not simple!

Looking at the light lights in the corridor, I finally agreed, "Please lead the way."

Seeing that I agreed to him, I breathed a sigh of relief and reached out to do the invitation, "Ms. Shi, please ask first."

I left the courtyard along the corridor, and the man slowly followed me. After getting off the corridor, I walked onto the wet bluestone road in my high heels. The man behind me immediately held an umbrella for me. On the road, we actually met the nominal fiancée of the ninth concubine and Xi Zhan.

Aunt Jiu looked at us in surprise, "Uncle Xi, you actually hold an umbrella for her myself!"

Aunt Ninth is considered Xi Zhan’s elder. She actually called the person behind me as uncle. His identity must be not simple. The person who was called Uncle Xi said lightly: "I mainly meet Miss Shi in my hometown."

Aunt Jiu was shocked and couldn't say a word. Before I left, I looked at Xi Nuo. She nodded slightly to me, her face was elegant and quiet, and she was the standard lady.

It's completely different from the woman who was so angry at the entrance of the hospital that day that she was about to explode.

After thinking about it carefully, I was indeed a bit too much that day. After all, in Xinuo's concept, Xi Zhan was her future husband, her god, and the only man she could rely on in her life.

But now is a new era after all, and we advocate freedom of love.

What's more, Xi Zhan has no intention of her at all.

Xi Zhan’s father’s yard was far away from Xi Zhan’s yard, and I walked for more than twenty minutes before I arrived.

I followed Uncle Xi into the courtyard and guarded the door. Uncle Xi stepped forward and knocked on the door, and said with a low voice: "Master of the family, Miss Shi has arrived and is waiting at the door at this moment."

A cough came from the room, and my heart tightened for no reason, and I felt a sense of tension that was close to homesickness.

I pursed my lips tightly and stared at the closed room in front of me and remained silent. A hoarse voice came from it, "Xi Wei, how about she?"

The person named Xi Wei responded: "The head of the family, Miss Shi is perfect, strong and confident."

There was another cough inside, and a low laughter mixed with it, "Nonsense, where did you know her strength and confidence just now? Xi Wei, bring her in to meet me."

Their conversation was inexplicably , and I followed Xi Wei into the room with a little confused .

The room was very simple and tidy, with a screen scribbling in the center. Xi Wei pushed the screen away, and a withered old man sitting on a wheelchair slowly appeared behind him.

Xi Zhan is right, he is indeed counting days to live.

I thought about it and called him, "Uncle."

Hearing my name, he raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why do you call me like this?"

I was stunned, never thought he would ask me this question.

I explained politely: "I am Xi Zhan's girlfriend, you are his father."

Seeing me mention Xi Zhan, he said with a slightly gloomy face: "Zhan'er's girlfriend."

I nodded, remembering the first time I met Chairman Gu, he came to him at that time. When I faced him, I was generous and at ease, and would not be as nervous as I am now.

After all, Fu Xi and his assistant gave me too much warning. It was the fear of how the Xi family was. Now I can't help but feel nervous when facing the former head of the Xi family.

He did not mention Xi Zhan again, but waved to me to signal to him. I looked at Xi Wei with some hesitation, and the latter smiled kindly and said, "Miss Shi, the head of the family wants to touch you."

Touch me...

I met him for the first time, and this behavior was not in accordance with the rules.

Although I thought so in my heart, I couldn't bear to see Xi Zhan's gentle gaze. I went over and squatted in front of him. He raised his hand and gently touched my head. His voice was filled with traces of time and said softly: "Sheng'er, this is the first time I have met you."

He was very gentle to me and his words were puzzled. I looked at him in surprise. His thick palm gradually touched my cheeks and began to describe my outlines in detail.

Somehow, I felt no discomfort in my heart, but was very calm and peaceful. After touching the outline, he touched my ears. Gradually, turbid tears slowly remained in the corners of his eyes.

I was full of confusion. When I was about to get up, I suddenly heard him remember him and said, "Sheng'er, I only have one child left to live to this age. I may not be a good father or a good husband in my life, but like all the men in the world, I have the woman I love, the children and grandchildren I want, and the blood closest relatives I want."

I didn't understand what he meant, and asked hesitantly: "What does my uncle want to say?"

He smiled slightly and withdrew his palm. I stood up and heard him say, "You are the child Zhan'er likes, and you will be my Xi family's legitimate daughter-in-law in the future. As an elder, I hope you will be happy."

Xi Zhan’s father actually wished Xi Zhan and me…

Don’t they have their own chosen daughter-in-law?

I asked him, "Where is Shino?"

Didn’t Sinuo be trained by them as their maternal mother?

Upon hearing this, he patiently explained: "I have no right to decide on marriage, and Zhan'er is an independent man. Since he likes you, you are the daughter-in-law of the Xi family."

Will the rules of the Xi family, which have always been rigorous, be so casual?

I don't believe it, but that's what Xi Zhan's father said!

My heart was full of confusion. Xi Wei suddenly handed me a document. Xi Zhan's father explained: "Let's go ahead, Yu Zhan'er is beneficial. After I die..."

He suddenly stopped talking. The old man in front of him seemed to be on the verge of death in an instant, with a blue face, but his eyes were filled with a sense of perseverance and freedom of mind.

Seeing his condition, Xi Wei quickly stepped forward and took out the medicine and fed him two. After a long time of rest, the old man was a little more awake. He looked at me with a confused look, "Child..."

I was stunned for a moment and heard him say sadly: "I'm sorry for your mother."

He mentioned my mother!!

Could it be that he knows who my mother is?
