?Chapter 256: Chapter 256 Xiao family’s Internal Conflict and Heart-to-Heart with Hai Tang (1)_1 Chapter 256: Chapter 256 Xiao family’s Internal Conflict and Heart-to-Heart with Hai Tang (1)_1 “A middle-aged man came to the gate of Xiao’s House, holding a hairpin, claiming he was following his deceased father’s last wish to see his birth mother.” Long Xuanmo spoke slowly, “He also said his father and mother had a love at first sight encounter at Ning’an Temple and soon after, he was born;
knowing his mother was already married to someone of high status, his father took him away as a newborn to distant lands, not revealing his origins until on his deathbed;
He tried several times to send letters to meet his birth mother to no avail, and as a last resort, he had no choice but to show up in person.”

Yang Mengchen chuckled inwardly, though outwardly feigned curiosity, “This is indeed a very interesting matter, how did the Xiao family react?”

“Of course, the Xiao family denied it, but the man shares a striking resemblance, about fifty to sixty percent, with Old Lady Xiao, and the hairpin is indeed her property. Most importantly, it’s well-known that Old Lady Xiao did visit Ning’an Temple back then and subsequently stayed at the villa for over a year, claiming to be recuperating from illness; whether the Xiao family admits it or not, it doesn’t make any difference;
Now, the Capital is abuzz with rumors, Old Master Xiao, livid and humiliated, wanted to divorce his wife, but he was eventually swayed by the desperate pleas of his sons, daughters-in-law, and grandchildren, and did not divorce her. Instead, he confined Old Lady Xiao to the Buddhist hall, forbidding her to leave and handed over the power to manage the household to his eldest daughter-in-law;
The Xiao clan still relies on Old Master Xiao for their livelihood, so they didn’t intervene in the matter, but many clan members are already feeling dissatisfied.”
