The most difficult female boss in history

Chapter 98 The Last Compromise

Xiao Mingzhu understood that when Mrs. Xu came to the door at this time, she must have wanted to reconcile with her grandmother.

She also understands that the grievances will fade with the passage of time, the grievances and grievances between the two governments have long since disappeared from Mrs. Xu's memory, and what is left is only the expectation of the unbroken blood and family relationship.Grandma is over half a century old, and indeed there are not many 12 years left to waste. When the Xu family handed over an olive, she must have walked down the steps.

But she also felt that Mrs. Xu and Xu Pianran would definitely not come for nothing.Otherwise, why would you not come sooner or later, but why did you come to the door at this time.

Mrs. Xu happily changed her clothes, combed her hair, and tried her best to dress herself up properly.

"How is it?" Mrs. Xu smiled and turned her head to ask Nanny Ru, just in time to catch a glimpse of Xiao Mingzhu who was standing silently by the side with a cold face.

Mrs. Xu was stunned for a moment, the smile on her face froze, she hesitated for a while, and then said: "Sister Ming..."

Xiao Mingzhu was so engrossed in her thoughts that she didn't realize it all at once, but Shang Nanny next to her lightly touched Xiao Mingzhu's arm, and Xiao Mingzhu finally realized it: "Grandmother?"

There was a trace of hesitation on Mrs. Xu's face, and she was still a little displeased, and finally said: "You follow me to meet your Aunt Xu's." These words were very firm, and there was no room for Xiao Mingzhu to refuse.

Although Xiao Mingzhu had already prepared herself, she still felt uncomfortable after hearing this.Asking her to meet the Xu family, did grandma want her to shake hands with the Xu family?

Mrs. Xu sighed softly: "You must know some things. After your mother passed away, no one knows the truth, but Xu Wen is inseparable from that matter. Grandma doesn't want to be with you. Why are you explaining more, I just want to explain clearly to you, Xu Wen is Xu Wen, and the Xu family is Xu family."

Xu Wen is Xu Wen, Xu family is Xu family?
Although it is said that one person is responsible for doing things alone, and the crime is not as good as others, if there is no Xu family's instigation and support behind him, would Xu Wen dare to go to the general's mansion to embarrass his mother?
In recent years, the Xu family and the General's Mansion have drawn a clear line, isn't it because they believe that Xu Wen is right and wait for the General's Mansion to bow their heads?

Grandma didn't know, or ignored it on purpose, and didn't even want to understand her feelings as a child.

Xiao Mingzhu didn't move at all, she just looked straight at Mrs. Xu, wanting to ask for an answer.

Mrs. Xu was a little flustered under Xiao Mingzhu's gaze that resembled Lin's. She slapped the table angrily and said angrily, "What's the matter, are you going to disobey me?" up.

Nurse Ru kept winking at Xiao Mingzhu, telling Xiao Mingzhu to retreat for a while, so as not to let the old lady down.

Nanny Shang touched Xiao Mingzhu lightly again, and whispered in her ear: "Girl, why bother to compete with the old lady for this moment, but let outsiders get an advantage. Isn't it just a meeting, can the old lady still Force you to be intimate with the Xu family?"

Xiao Mingzhu laughed all of a sudden. She was the one who told her by Nanny Shang that she didn't have to show good looks when she went. If she wanted to slap Xu's family, she could slap them in the face.Even so, she still felt uncomfortable in her heart, and her smile was a little desolate.

Well, it's the last time to compromise, to see what the Xu family wants to do, and then to see grandma's attitude, then she can really give up.

Mrs. Xu's originally dissatisfied eyes gradually became a little uneasy.She was not sure what Xiao Mingzhu wanted to do.At this time, Xiao Mingzhu said: "Just meet, we are all relatives." No matter what you say, it makes people feel that there is something in the words, and it looks like they want to make trouble.

Mrs. Xu made a serious face, and Mammy Ru hurriedly said in a low voice: "Madam, Mrs. Xu is still waiting." Mammy Ru has also served the old lady by her side all her life, and she can probably guess what the old lady is thinking, but At the moment she is also very powerless, she doesn't know how to dissuade her, so she can only bring out the Xu family to distract the old lady.

Seeing that the Xu family's impulse still prevailed, Mrs. Xu simply ignored Xiao Mingzhu, and walked out the door while supporting Nunnery Ru's arm.Xiao Mingzhu calmly followed her, as if the scene just now had never happened.

Mrs. Xu, who was sitting in the hall drinking tea, paid close attention to the furnishings in the hall, her face was a little uncomfortable, this was completely different from the Xiao family in her memory.

Today is the first time she visited the house after the split between the two mansions, and of course, it was also the first time she came to the general's mansion.

Twelve years ago, Xiao Huai'en was just a young general. At that time, the Xiao family lived on the aunt's dowry. Although life was decent, it was tight.But right now, the furnishings in the military mansion look plain, but with the gaze of a housewife, how can she not recognize the exquisite and elegant tables, chairs, plates and cups, all of which are low-key and luxurious good things.

Thinking about that day, after Sister Ran returned from Lu's Mansion, she talked with her about reconciliation with the General's Mansion.At that time, she didn't care about it, she took this as a joke and told the master, but unexpectedly, the master told her very carefully, Xiao Huai'en has always won the trust of the emperor, and has repeatedly made military exploits in Xin'an over the years, this time he will return to Beijing. To become an official and rank, let her go to the general's mansion with her parents-in-law on her back to meet her aunt before Xiao Huaien returns to Beijing, and to say hello first.

Going to the general's mansion with his parents-in-law on his back, if Xiao Huai'en gains power and the relationship between the two mansions eases, that's all.Otherwise it must be all her fault.But before she could make up her mind, Xiao Mingzhu was rewarded by the emperor twice.The General's Mansion suddenly became the hottest house in the capital, and even the little Princess of Prince Qing's Mansion posted a post for Xiao Mingzhu.

At that moment, she couldn't sit still and prepared a gift and wanted to come to the General's Mansion, but her sister stopped her and said that it would be more appropriate to come to the General's Mansion on her aunt's birthday instead of following a group of people who wanted to add to the icing on the cake.

Looking at it now, sister Ran and the master are both right. The life of Xu's mansion is going from bad to worse, but the general's mansion is in full swing.The wealth and honor of the general's mansion has already made her tongue-tied, which shows how much Xiao Huai'en has been favored over the years.To ease the relationship with the Xiao Mansion will only benefit the Xu family but not harm them.

At the entrance of the side hall, Mrs. Xu's anxious footsteps calmed down instead. She let go of Nunnery Ru's hand and walked slowly into the hall door.

Hearing the movement at the door, Mrs. Xu turned her head to look at Mrs. Xu and Xiao Mingzhu, she immediately stood up, a little eager, but also a little embarrassed.

After Mrs. Xu sat down on the main seat, Mrs. Xu and Xu Pianran came over to greet her and said, "My niece and daughter-in-law are here to celebrate my aunt's birthday."

Xu Pianran moved with small steps, her skirt barely swaying, and moved in front of Mrs. Xu and gave a big salute: "My great-nephew, Pianran, wishes my aunt my birthday."

Xu Pianran is exactly the ladylike look Mrs. Xu likes most, elegant and generous, paying attention to her image in every move, and engraving the rules in her bones.

If Xiao Mingzhu knew what Mrs. Xu was thinking, she would definitely spit and complain.Grandma, that's like you've never seen her try to pick up a man.
