Chapter 377 Cold-blooded Mother’s Family
The house next door heard the commotion, and a woman in her fifties came out: "Are you relatives of the Chen family?"

Yu Suqin nodded immediately and rushed to the woman: "Yes, yes, I am Chen's biological mother."

The affairs of Chen Yanfeng's family once caused a sensation in the capital. Now, looking at the family in such a state of poverty, the woman felt pity for them.

"She sold the house a month ago, and no one knows where it is now."

"She...how could she sell the house?"

"Where can she go?" Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what to do for a moment.

The woman looked around at everyone again before sighing and explaining.

"Everyone in the capital knows what happened to your family. She only came back as a widow. It's inevitable that someone will gossip about her if she lives here..."

So it is understandable for people to move away, and it is also understandable for them not to tell others where they live.

The escape route that she thought she would have no matter what, suddenly disappeared. Chen Jingqiang sold her house and moved away!
Everyone in the Chen family was collectively dumbfounded. They stood in Lugun Hutong and looked at each other: What should we do? !

Hou Qiaoyu straightened her spine and said warmly: "It's better to go to my mother's house and ask. At least have a full meal first."

Upon hearing this, everyone seemed to have found a backbone, and they all looked at Hou Qiaoyu with eager eyes: This is the last chance in the capital.

"Third brother-in-law, let's go then!"

So a group of people gathered around and went to the Zuixian Tower owned by Hou Qiaoyu's mother-in-law.

It was not lunch time at this time, and the front door of Zuixian Tower was deserted. Several people stood at the door of Zuixian Tower, allowing Hou Qiaoyu to come forward and speak.

Before Hou Qiaoyu came forward to say anything, the boy came out and chased them away: "Where is this beggar coming from? Go away, go away! Don't hinder our business!"

Everyone was so shouted that their hearts suffocated and their faces turned red!

When Chen Huaijue, the youngest, heard this, he stepped forward and said angrily: "How can you talk, little boy? Do you know who I am?!"

The young man laughed in anger, put his hands on his hips and asked, "Hey, young master, who are you?"

Chen Huaijue: "My uncle is the owner here! I'm here to see my uncle!"

Hou Qiaoyu had no choice but to answer: "I'm looking for your boss."

It was half a year ago that the Weiyuan Hou Mansion was raided. When the servant heard the sound and took a closer look at Hou Qiaoyu's face, his expression also changed.

"You guys wait here, I'll go find my boss right away."

But he didn't ask everyone to come in.

Yu Suqin was anxious: "Just ask us to stand outside and wait? Why don't you ask us to go in and have a cup of hot tea first?"

The shopkeeper and the boy inside pretended not to hear.

The three brothers of the Chen family were all sullen and silent.

Hou Qiaoyu's heart sank slightly.

Chen Huaijue smelled the aroma of the food inside and couldn't help but want to go inside, but unexpectedly he was stopped by another boy.

"Hey, hey, hey, I told you to wait outside, why are you rushing in?"

"I want to go in and find my uncle! My uncle loves me the most!" Chen Huaijue arrogantly tried to push the boy away, but the boy stopped him and refused to let him in.

Chen Huaijue became anxious and bit the boy on the arm.

The boy was in pain, he yelled, and with a little force, he pushed Chen Huaijue away and fell to the ground!

Chen Huaijue hit the ground on the back of his head and fell unconscious without saying a word!
Hou Qiaoyu was really anxious now: "Jue'er? Jue'er! How are you? Don't scare your mother..." The boy also knew that he was in trouble, and he shied away from responsibility: "Who told him to bite me?"

"I didn't use much strength, so why are I still pretending to be dead? Are you trying to blackmail someone?!"

Hou Qiaoyu stepped forward and slapped the boy: "You are so presumptuous!"

The boy was angered by the slap and kicked him over.

"You are so presumptuous! Do you think you are still the Marquis of Weiyuan Marquis Mansion!? Why do you beat me?"

"A group of refugees, who have received His Majesty's grace without thinking of repaying it, actually dare to show off the majesty of your Marquis at the feet of the Emperor?!"

"Let this little brat start making trouble, pretend to be dazed, and want to rip off someone? You guys are really shameless!"

After the boy finished cursing, he said "poof" and then turned around and went back to the restaurant.

Hou Qiaoyu stood at the door trembling all over: It turned out that he knew who he was, and he wouldn't let her in. It wasn't because he didn't recognize that he was a relative of his employer, but because he looked down on his own family!
Looking at the three-story elegantly decorated restaurant in front of her, Hou Qiaoyu felt that every inch of her bones and blood were cold.

It can almost be said that this restaurant was fully funded by Hou Qiaoyu after she became the mistress of the Hou Mansion!

At first, my mother-in-law's family was grateful for this. When brothers Chen Huaijue and Chen Huaizhang came over for dinner, they never had to give money and they were given whatever they wanted.

Although Hou Qiaoyu always asked people to give him money every time in order not to let his eldest brother suffer, he felt happy in his heart.

My mother-in-law's family is kind to me and values ​​friendship, so I don't help them in vain.

But what happened today was like a bucket of cold water being poured on her body, making her feel cold from head to toe!
Hou Qiaoyu wiped away her tears, calmed down, and looked at the boy with his chin raised to the sky: "Where is my elder brother?"

"My boss is very busy, who knows where he is?" the waiter responded impatiently.

"Okay, if he doesn't come, we will wait for him here. I want to see if he can bear to let his nephew die at the door like this!"

Hou Qiaoyu said, turned around, hugged the unconscious Chen Huaijue and sat on the steps at the door of the restaurant. She didn't say anything, just shed tears.

Seeing this, the other people followed suit and sat at the door, actually blocking the door of the restaurant tightly!

The shopkeeper who had been watching coldly inside was dumbfounded: If this continues, there will be no business for today!
He winked at the boy, and the boy ran towards the backyard.

Not long after, a fat middle-aged man in a brocade robe came out with an impatient look on his face: "What's going on?"

"Brother..." Hou Qiaoyu stood up, still holding Chen Huaijue in her arms, tears about to flow out.

"I said, why are you coming back? Didn't you see that my restaurant is about to close due to your troubles?"

Hou Zhongyuan glanced at Hou Qiaoyu impatiently and complained.

Hou Qiaoyu: "..."

Chen Yanfeng stepped forward and held his hands: "Brother, Jue'er was pushed down by your servant and fell unconscious. We need to take him to see a doctor. Could you please give us some money..."

Hou Zhongyuan glanced at Chen Yanfeng: "Brother-in-law, we finally came back, so stop being a monster. We still have to live our lives."

"I'm so tired of you that I can't even continue my business!"

After saying this, Hou Zhongyuan glanced at the counter: "Bring me five taels of silver..."

Five taels of silver... Chen Yanfeng pursed his lips and said nothing.

When he went to the Hou Mansion, Hou Qiaoyu always gave him hundreds or hundreds of taels of silver, but they still felt that the payment was too little, and they would cry about poverty...

Sure enough, human relationships are cold and warm!
The world is in trouble!
The shopkeeper gave the five taels of silver to Hou Zhongyuan. Hou Zhongyuan raised his hand and threw the five taels of silver to the ground.
