On this day, there was a blessing ceremony in the Holy Maiden Temple.
As the Saintess’s forehead had been stepped on by Cheng Sang, she really could not afford to lose face. She could only send someone to the Holy Maiden Temple to pass a message.
She was injured and could not preside over the blessing ceremony.
The Saintess actually had an idea in her heart. She hoped that the Holy Maiden Temple could postpone the blessing ceremony.
Unfortunately, she was disappointed.
The Holy Maiden Temple sent a message: Recuperate well and don’t worry about the blessing ceremony. Yin Xiaodie will preside over it on your behalf.
The Saintess pressed her sore eyebrows.
The moment she pressed it, she hit the sore spot. She was even more annoyed.
After being unlucky one incident after another, she thought that she was already annoyed enough. Unexpectedly, in the evening, the maidservant suddenly walked in in a hurry.
“Saintess! Not good! Something big has happened!”
A trace of impatience flashed across the Saint’s eyes. “What is it?”
The maidservant said anxiously, “There are three children outside the door. They said… they said they were looking for their mother!”
The Saintess asked indifferently, “Are they the sons of a family in the residence?
The maidservant braced herself and said, “No, Saintess… They… seem to be looking for you.”
The Cheng family had been a little lively recently.
A few days ago, the little girl came to acknowledge her family and said that she was Cheng Sang’s biological granddaughter.
Today, three more little children came. They were each holding a small bag in their arms and looking for their mother.
The three children were too beautiful and were triplets. They were very rare.
This doubled the number of people watching the show compared to last time.
The door was surrounded so tightly that the servants of the Cheng family could not chase them away even if they wanted to.
“What beautiful children!”
“Isn’t that so? They look like dolls who walked out of a New Year painting!” “In my opinion, they are immortal children under the Heavenly God!”
Not to mention those aunties, even the men who had always maintained their status wished they could carry the three cute children back. An aunt asked, “Does your mother live in this house?”
The three of them hugged the small bag and nodded seriously.
The aunt asked again, ‘Who’s your mother?”
The three of them said nothing.
An aunt asKea, “IS ner surname cneng<‘
The three of them nodded seriously again.
At this moment, a young woman said,
“Aiya, I’ve seen them! Last time on Liuyang Street, they addressed the Saintess as their mother!”
“Are you serious?”
“It’s truer than gold! I saw it with my own eyes!”
“I saw it too!” a young man said.
“Aiya, are the rumors true? Did the Saintess really give birth to a child with a man?”
“No way? The Holy Maiden Temple didn’t punish the Saintess either…”
“But I heard that the Saintess was not allowed to attend today’s blessing ceremony. It was hosted by the new Saintess. Do you think this is the punishment of the Holy Maiden Temple?”
“Such a light punishment?”
“What do you know? This is the first step. In the future…”
Everyone spoke one after another, and the rumors became more and more ridiculous.
The Saintess’s ears hurt from listening in!
At the side, Steward Pang was trembling. “There are too many people. We can’t chase them away. It’s better if you don’t listen. I’ll get someone to close the door.”
“Why are you closing the door? I want to go out.”
Su Xiaoxiao and Uncle Quan walked over.
Uncle Quan looked at the door. ‘Why are there so many people outside? How can we get out?”
When the young woman saw Su Xiaoxiao, she pointed and said, “It’s that girl!
Last time, she was with the Saintess! She also heard the children address the Saintess as their mother! If you don’t believe me, ask her!”
“Miss! Miss!”
Everyone swarmed forward.
The Cheng family’s guards hurriedly stopped everyone.
Uncle Quan advised awkwardly, “Miss, let’s lie low for now and go out another day.”
Su Xiaoxiao smiled gloatingly. “I’m not the one who was recognized as a wild girl. Why should I avoid the limelight? Let’s go!”
“You’re not allowed to leave!” The Saintess said coldly.
This girl did not get along with her. Once she went out, she might say something nonsense.
If others spread it, it could be treated as rumors.
She was the young master of the Cheng family. Her words carried weight.
The auntie shouted, “Are they your Cheng family’s children or not? Come out and acknowledge them! What’s the point of leaving the children here?”
The three little ones said, “Mother.”
Su Xiaoxiao smiled at the Saintess. “They called you mother. Hurry up and pick up your sons.”
In the crowd, someone suddenly shouted, “Whose mother are they calling? Is it the Holy Maiden or that girl?”
The speaker had no intention, but the listener had a heart.
Steward Pang sized Su Xiaoxiao up and his eyes suddenly flashed. “Saintess, let’s talk in private.”
The Saintess took a few steps back with him.
“What’s wrong?” the Saintess asked in a low voice.
Steward Pang whispered, “Saintess, was Cheng Su also present when they greeted their mother that day?” The Saintess said, “So what if was?”
Steward Pang smiled. “That’s easy. They were not calling out to you, but Cheng
The Saintess frowned. “You want to frame her? These children are three or four years old. Do you think Cheng Su can give birth to such children? You have to have some brains to frame her.’
Steward Pang said, “Who said it has to be her biological sons?”
The Saintess said, “She’s unmarried. It’s clearly written in the household register.”
Steward Pang said cunningly, “She could be engaged. Her fiancé is a widower with children. They have gone through most of the customary procedures. We’re just short of the wedding ceremony.”
The Saintess paused. “She has to acknowledge it herself. Otherwise, everyone will know that I’m slandering her.”
Some rumors could be created, but some could not.
Steward Pang stroked his goatee. “I’ll have to ask Old Master to come forward.”
Fifteen minutes later.
Su Xiaoxiao and Xie Yunhe met in the Cheng family’s reception hall.
Su Xiaoxiao smiled faintly. “What did Grandpa say just now? You want me to acknowledge the Saintess’s children? It’s not dark yet, but you’re already dreaming?
Xie Yunhe said earnestly, “I won’t argue with you for being rude to me. When you first returned to the Cheng family, I did question you. I don’t blame you for being angry. However, this matter concerns the Cheng family’s reputation. I hope you can prioritize the big picture.”
Su Xiaoxiao was about to faint. He didn’t blame her? He made it sound like he had the right to blame her.
That was not the main point today. She would let him off first.
Su Xiaoxiao chuckled. “Her reputation is important, but my reputation isn’t? If I already have three children before marriage, how can I get married in the future if word gets out?”
Xie Yunhe said, “They are not your biological sons. It’s just a marriage set in the countryside. Keep the children first. When the attention passes, I’ll think of a way to annul this ‘marriage’ for you. As the young master of the Cheng family, many people want would want to marry you. It won’t affect you much.”
Su Xiaoxiao smiled. “So Grandpa has already arranged everything for me. You’re not discussing it with me, but informing me directly. What if I don’t agree?”
Xie Yunhe said seriously, “I’ll get Steward Pang to give you the key to the storeroom.”
Su Xiaoxiao said, “I already have it.”
Xie Yunhe looked at her. “I’m referring to the farms. The Cheng family has many farms under its name, and the income generated is no less than what we have in the residence.”
Su Xiaoxiao’s expression softened.
But soon, she became cold again.
Su Xiaoxiao snorted. “It’s just a few farms, and you want me to take the blame for her? I won’t go for such a bad deal. Not to mention that she’s my aunt, she almost wanted to kill me on the streets. I don’t have such an aunt!”
Xie Yunhe did not say that it was a misunderstanding. He was an expert at negotiation and knew how to catch the main point.
He looked at Su Xiaoxiao deeply. “What do I have to do to make you agree?” Su Xiaoxiao smiled at him and said coldly , “I want to take back the Cheng
family’s mine!”
