It’s great to be reborn and marry your brother, but your ex-husband cried and called you sister-in-l

Xiao Yanlin met Xiao Ruoyun on the way back.

Ever since Gu Baiyu told him that if the northwest continued to develop according to the current situation, there might be big troubles, Xiao Yanlin took this matter to heart.

Just because Xiao Ruoyun had learned about the collusion between Northwest and the Ministry of Industry in advance, Xiao Yanlin simply worked hard in this regard.

He wanted to borrow the help of others to remind the emperor from the side.

Xiao Yanlin did not want to participate in this matter openly. He held military power and was already feared, and any position above the court was very sensitive.

Even if he has always been neutral, there are often forces from all sides to instigate the court officials to impeach him. If he openly intervenes in this matter now, I am afraid that the officials' impeachment will fly to the emperor's records like snowflakes.

Therefore, Xiao Yan handled this matter very cautiously and spent a lot of time outside.

When he came back, he met Xiao Ruoyun on the road who smelled of alcohol.

Xiao Ruoyun looked listless, so he simply went with Xiao Ruoyun.

The brothers also chatted a few words along the way.

He probably knew that there was collusion between northwest officials and the Ministry of Industry, but he did not expose the matter. Xiao Ruoyun looked very depressed.

The two of them had just arrived at the door of the Hou Mansion, and the old housekeeper was already waiting aside. He leaned into Xiao Yanlin's ear and told them what had just happened.

The old housekeeper glanced at Xiao Ruoyun hesitantly.

"No need to avoid him." Xiao Yan said.

Now that the master had spoken, the old housekeeper simply told the matter in front of Xiao Ruoyun.

Xiao Ruoyun frowned hard after hearing this, and he glanced at Xiao Yanlin with some embarrassment.

"Brother, I don't want to blame my sister-in-law, I just want to ask...Didn't the house just be rectified before? Why is it suddenly happening now..."

Xiao Yanlin glanced at him and replied: "Because your sister-in-law is afraid that if you really go to His Majesty and tell the story about the Ministry of Works, then the Hou family will make enemies. The best she can do as a woman is to take care of the back house. Don’t let us have any worries.”

Xiao Yanlin was not lying.

Gu Baiyu did all this just to stabilize the rear for the two men.

After Xiao Ruoyun heard this, his face was very ashamed, and his heart felt uncomfortable.

He felt uncomfortable and depressed because his eldest brother obviously did not restrain him, and his sister-in-law was even ready for everything in the back house, but he...

But I don’t have the courage to do something like this that is against everyone…

The two of them listened to the old housekeeper at the door. Xiao Yanlin patted him on the back: "Let's go in and have a look."

As soon as Xiao Ruoyun walked to the door, Gu Ruanruan stood inside and saw him.

Seeing Xiao Ruoyun coming, she seemed to have seen a savior, with tears on her face, looking like she had been greatly wronged.

Before Xiao Ruoyun's front feet even stepped into the threshold, she was already crying and rushing towards Xiao Ruoyun.

"Husband... you have to make the decision for me!"

Gu Ruanruan had no intention of giving Gu Baiyu a chance to speak. He lay on Xiao Ruoyun's shoulder, crying softly and telling his grievances.

"I know Madam first arrived at the Hou Mansion and wanted to take care of the backyard, but no matter what she does, she must do it step by step, right?"

"Not to mention that I just sent some old people away a few days ago, but now it has only been a while, and I have started to rectify it again! And if Madam wants to establish authority for her servants, she shouldn't attack the maids around me. She just said a few words casually , Madam started beating people!"

After Gu Ruanruan finished speaking, he pulled Lingzhi, who was covering his face, in front of Xiao Ruoyun.

"Husband, you know that this girl Lingzhi is smart and sensible, just because she defended me today... Look! Look!"

She pulled Lingzhi's hand away and said, "This is a little girl who doesn't understand anything yet. Look at how her face was beaten."

Gu Ruanruan talked for a long time, accusing Gu Baiyu every sentence.

Accusing her of being too harsh in disciplining the servants in the mansion, accusing her of targeting him specifically, and saying how wronged she was...

As for why Gu Baiyu punished Ganoderma lucidum, he didn’t say a word!

In fact, Xiao Ruoyun was just coaxed back to her mind recently.

Although they didn't share the same room, Gu Ruanruan was willing to please him on the bed like that, and he felt some sympathy and love for Gu Ruanruan in his heart;

If it hadn't been for what she said at the door just now, Xiao Ruoyun might have felt distressed and aggrieved for her, and he might have interceded with her.

But through the conversation at the door, Xiao Ruoyun had already known the reason why Gu Baiyu was so strict. He was not looking for trouble, not against anyone, but for the Hou Mansion, for him and his eldest brother.

Ever since, in comparison, all Gu Ruanruan's grievances and cries became unreasonable in Xiao Ruoyun's eyes.

Gu Ruanruan was acting like a one-man show. He cried there for a long time and then realized that Xiao Ruoyun was silent and didn't say a word.

This situation... doesn't seem quite right...

She gritted her teeth and immediately decided to do something cruel.

With a thud, Gu Ruanruan knelt down at Xiao Ruoyun's feet.

"If Madam doesn't like me, and husband doesn't like me either, it's better to let me leave the Marquis' Mansion so that I don't bother Madam in this house every day! If husband thinks I'm still a bit pitiful, then I'll be brave and ask you Husband, you must make the decision for me today!"

This was forcing Xiao Ruoyun to make a decision.

Either support her or leave here?

After she finished speaking, the room fell silent.

Old God Gu Baiyu was drinking tea on the ground, and Xiao Yanlin had already walked to her side.

Xiao Ruoyun was very calm and glanced at the woman kneeling at his feet.

"Are you finished?"

His attitude was so calm that Gu Ruanruan forgot to cry for a moment and looked up at him.

"Say, it's over..."

Xiao Ruoyun nodded, and he casually nodded to a boy next to him: "Retell what Aunt Gu and Lingzhi said before I came here. Don't hide a word."

The boy was actually very scared, but he knew better that the lady had the final say here.

So, he said it exactly as it was, including Gu Ruanruan's strange words and Lingzhi's rude words.

Xiao Ruoyun was not a fool. After listening to what the boy said, he already understood that all the reasons were because Gu Ruanruan didn't take Gu Baiyu seriously.

He didn't salute properly, and even deliberately made provocations on such occasions when Gu Baiyu was showing off his power...

No matter from which aspect, Gu Ruanruan did something wrong.

After listening to what the boy said, he looked very calm.

But Gu Ruanruan, who was kneeling at her feet, felt that the man in front of her had become a little strange...

Xiao Ruoyun lowered his head and looked at Gu Ruanruan, even the disappointment was gone from his expression.

"I can't make the decision for you, because the fault is yours."

"What happened today was that you made the provocation first, Lingzhi contradicted the master later, and my sister-in-law just followed the rules."

"If you don't want to leave, you can't go anywhere without the permission of your husband's family."

After he finished speaking, he raised his head and looked at Gu Baiyu: "Today's matters are all at the discretion of the eldest sister-in-law."

Gu Ruanruan's heart had already turned cold when she heard that Xiao Ruoyun was not facing her, but what Xiao Ruoyun said next made her heart feel like it was falling into an ice cave.

"The eldest sister-in-law is like a mother. Even if the eldest sister-in-law decides to divorce this concubine today, Ruoyun will do it."
