"!!!"

The crisp sound of a slap rang out, and the room suddenly became silent.

This was the first time Anle Hou had laid hands on her. Even Mrs. Hou looked in disbelief. She couldn't believe that the man in front of her, who had been with her for nearly thirty years, would actually lay hands on her.

Except for Ye Er, everyone present could not believe what they saw. In their eyes, it was impossible for Anlehou to do something to his beloved wife.

Mrs. Hou stared at Anlehou with tears in her eyes, "Master Hou, you...you actually..."

After Anlehou finished the beating, he also regretted it, but when he thought about what she had done these days, and when he thought of Xiao Qin who was forced by her to have a home and could not go back, the Marquis felt even more sorry for his daughter.

So he turned his face away at this moment, forcing himself not to look at Mrs. Hou's tears, and continued to order the two daughters-in-law in a cold voice, "Why are you still standing there stupidly? Why don't you let your mother pull you down."

Although it would be treasonous to take action directly, with Anlehou's order, how dare the two daughters-in-law of the Xiao family not to execute it.

Moreover, they strongly disagreed with what their mother-in-law said. At this moment, they received the order from Mr. Hou. They looked at each other and had no choice but to stand up and take Mrs. Hou away.

Mrs. Hou was still a little unable to recover after being beaten. She did not struggle when the two of them walked out holding hands, which did not embarrass them.

After Mrs. Hou's two daughters-in-law were pulled away, Mr. Hou's eyes were full of helplessness and he looked at Ye Er, "I'm going to make you laugh. Your mother-in-law is not an unreasonable person, and she is not really as kind to Xiao Qin as she shows.

Cruel-hearted.”

"The reason why Xiao Qin had to rely on you was not because she didn't care about Xiao Qin's happiness at all, but because in her eyes, she felt that you were a person worthy of trust, so we can rest assured that Xiao Qin is in your hands."

"Now that Xiao Qin's marriage has been resolved, of course we parents must also care about how our sons are doing and the path they will take in the future."

"You have been in the officialdom for a while, so you should know very well that my son, the son of the Xiao family, was suddenly transferred back to the capital. With no one to support them, they will definitely be looked down upon by the snobs in the officialdom."

"Our Anlehou Mansion has been going downhill in recent years. Although it is in the name of a marquis mansion, it is actually powerless. I swore in front of the emperor that I would never interfere with the affairs of the court in this life, so the capital

There are so many people here who look down on our Marquis Mansion."

"Your mother-in-law's words and deeds are indeed excessive, but after all, she doesn't want to see me, the son of the Xiao family, being bullied. She thinks you can speak in front of the emperor, so she wants to force you to do it for the son of the Xiao family.

Find a better official position."

In fact, there is no need for Anlehou to explain too much. Ye Er is also very aware of the embarrassing situation of the Anlehou Mansion.

To be honest, he also wanted to help Xiao Qin's two elder brothers so that they could have a smoother career in the officialdom.

It's just that he is also powerless and does not have this ability. In the eyes of outsiders, he is the emperor's favorite and the emperor's most trusted minister at present. But everyone knows that the current emperor is suspicious by nature. He is very trustworthy in name, but in fact

Woolen cloth?

Who can guess how many spies the emperor had behind his back?

He was sure that if he continued to seek some benefits for the Anlehou Mansion and Xiao Qin's two brothers in front of the emperor, the emperor would not be able to tolerate him.

Furthermore, he actually believed that with the abilities of Xiao Qin's two brothers, as long as they were given more time to adapt, they would be able to develop their talents in the fields they were good at and gain respect and official positions from others.

Thinking like this, Ye Erdian An Lehou nodded, "My son-in-law understands the mood of my father-in-law and his mother-in-law. I will not take it to heart about my mother-in-law's words and deeds. Don't worry, my father-in-law."
