Chapter 496: Protection

Comparing Zhu and Cifu's wife, only a fool like Kong can do it. The faces of the Xie siblings and sisters present changed.

"Stop being angry, my mother is uncomfortable, so she will talk nonsense." Xie Yishu hurriedly came forward.

Xie Wenhui glanced at her and felt that Xie Yishu was not enough to make trouble. Although she said it, how could she admit it?

She walked to Xie Yuanniang and said, "Cousin, I apologize to you and Lord Gu on behalf of my mother."

She became blessed.

At this time, the guests were almost dispersed, and there were only servants in front of the Kong Mansion, and they were also watching here.

Xie Yuanniang didn't look at her, and her eyes fell on Kong's body, "I have always been considering the kindness of the Xie family's raising me, and I usually respect my aunt. What my aunt said today is unreasonable. It would be fine if my aunt was not worried about hitting me, but she also compared me with pigs, or was she hinting at my second master who could only protect the pigs?"

If this crime is deducted, it will be a big deal.

Kong's original dissatisfaction was still unwilling, and his face changed at this time, "Xie Yuanniang..."

Xie Yuanniang looked up with her face unchanged, "What do you have to say to aunt?"

Kong met those eyes that were not at all concessionate and sharp, and scenes of the past flashed in her eyes. She remembered how much trouble this dead girl had caused her heart.

"Mother." Xie Wenhui reminded.

Even Brother Ming came forward, "Second...Cousin, I'll apologize to you on behalf of my mother."

Looking at Brother Ming, Xie Yuanniang was unable to make up. She walked over and helped Brother Ming up and bowed, "Is it okay in the academy?"

Brother Ming's eyes turned red and he nodded.

Xie Yuanniang helped him sort out the hat he was wearing on his head, then patted him on the shoulder, "Go back."

Brother Ming went back obediently.

Xie Yuanniang said, "Today, for Brother Ming, I won't bother with my aunt. If there is another time, I don't blame me for not showing you mercy."

Gu Yuan also walked over at the right time and helped the person onto the carriage. Jiang Yi glared at the Xie family majestic, and then drove the carriage away.

After watching the carriage walk away, Kong scolded, "What a crazy thing."

"Mother." Brother Ming advised her dissatisfiedly, "You don't target your cousin anymore, she is not wrong."

It's you who is wrong.

This sentence has been kept in Brother Ming's heart, but he can't say it.

Kong did not want to be embarrassed in front of his children, so he got on the carriage angrily.

In the carriage on the other side, she sat alone with her uncle. Only then did Xie Yuanniang recall the scene when she was almost knocked down and her uncle protected her in her arms. Her ears heated up.

"You don't have to pay attention to Kong. She is not upright and will suffer a great loss in the future."

"I'm fine." Xie Yuanniang thought for a while, "Thank you for the second master just now."

"When will you be so polite between you and me?" Gu Yuan thought about her and suddenly became polite, as if she had changed from that study room to this point.

"The third prince in June is a wedding, and there are some things that the Ministry of Rites are not ready. The emperor asked me to prepare. I will live in the yamen these days. If you have any questions, please let Jiang Yi send me a letter. I will let Jiang Yi stay in the mansion."

"Jiang Yi is the person that the second master uses his habits. I stay in the mansion and there is nothing wrong. Second master will take Jiang Yi with me. If there is really something wrong, I will not delay sending a letter to the second master's yamen."

Gu Yuan looked at her and said, "Okay."

Xie Yuanniang looked away, not understanding what the look of the uncle just now meant, as if she could see through what she was thinking in her heart, and she was hiding from him.

At night, when I returned to the mansion, Gu Yuan took a shower, Xie Yuanniang was flipping through the book and reading it without reading a single word.

Han Xue came in quietly from outside and whispered, "I have inquired. After the girl returned to the mansion a few days ago, Miss Min returned to the village and has not come back today."

Xie Yuanniang's eyes lit up, "Will she leave after I leave?"

This news made Xie Yuanniang breathe a sigh of relief without realizing it, and she didn't even feel the joy in her heart.

Han Xue, "As soon as I came back, I heard the servants in the yard say that Miss Min went to the village to see her niece."

Whatever she does.

When Xie Yuanniang thought of the book she gave to her uncle, she was not in the mansion, especially when she was not in the mansion, she was not there, so she was not there.

So when Gu Yuan came out, he saw the little girl humming a small song while flipping through the book. He smiled and said, "Why are you so happy?"

Xie Yuanniang's eyes were smiling and narrowed into a slit, "It's okay."

Gu Yuan looked at her obedient appearance and felt soft. He forced himself to reach out to rub her head, "It's getting late, let's rest."

Xie Yuanniang obediently so she closed the book. However, when she asked Mei outside, she said that Madam Dong was here. Madam Dong was the nanny next to Mrs. Gu. When she heard that she was here, Xie Yuanniang thought that something had happened to the old lady, so she hurriedly let someone come in.

Madam Dong came in with something. After smiling and seeing the gift, she said directly, "The old lady knew that the second lady was back, so she specially asked her to make a bird's nest, saying that she would eat it before going to bed."

Xie Yuanniang's eyes were bright, "I'm sorry for my mother."

While asking Ling Mei to take it, she asked Madam Dong to sit down. Madam Dong said it was getting late, and the old lady was still waiting to reply and went back first.

Madam Dong left, Xie Yuanniang asked Lingmei to take it in. Lingmei quickly took a simple bowl and spoon. Xie Yuanniang asked her to put it down and rest, and personally made two bowls of bird's nest.

"Second Master."

Gu Yuan looked at the bird's nest handed in front of him, his brows were a little tight, and he took it, "I'll try it first."

The bird's nest was warm, Gu Yuan ate a bowl of it in a few bites and handed it over, "It's not too hot to cook it. If you eat it at night, you'll be afraid that your stomach will feel uncomfortable, so please take it down."

Xie Yuanniang's hand froze just as she was about to serve another bowl of uncle. She immediately responded and put the things together and brought them to the table outside. Seeing the unmoved bird's nest, would the old lady think too much if she didn't eat it?

She hesitated for a moment and heard the little uncle in the inner room call her, then she went in.

"It's getting late, let's take a break." Gu Yuan walked to the other side of the bed.

Although my mother didn't do anything to drug it, Gu Yuan was worried. What if Madam Dong was tampering with it?

Madam Dong is her mother's confidant and can die for her. She knows that she can also make some medicine for her mother's thoughts.

Gu Yuan sighed in his heart. It seemed that he would have to move to the yamen tomorrow, otherwise it would be really a tiring task to be so worried.

Xie Yuanniang had no idea that there was such a thing. She lay on the bed and talked about what she had done in the Kong Mansion these days, so she fell asleep in a daze. Before going to bed, she thought that she had always wanted to stay awake in front of her uncle, but for no reason she would feel very at ease as long as she lay with her uncle, and naturally she would be sleepy soon.
