Chapter 166 166: Very good, another day of digging holes for Shi Bichi (second update)
Chang Xi glanced at Jie Jin's gloomy face and stopped joking. According to Jie Jin's intelligence, he should be able to see Shi Bichi's intentions for him at this moment. However, some men would be complacent about their sister-in-law's love.
Is this the case anymore?
She did not arbitrarily judge Xie Jin's inner thoughts from his words and deeds. Some men who are sultry cannot just look at their appearance, and in her opinion, people like Xie Jin are a bit sullen.
During this period of time together, how could she not see the change in Xie Jin's attitude towards her?
From the initial ignorance to the current interest, coupled with the revolutionary friendship of sharing weal and woe, Xie Jin's attitude changes can be traced. Now he is trying every means to get close to her through the Qin family, and she also sees it.
Yes, only a fool would push away a handsome man when he approaches her. She is also a normal woman. Who doesn’t like a pretty and appetizing person?
Moreover, there is no harm in engaging in ambiguity. It is good to treat it as a spice in life. What's more, she can see that Xie Jin has always exercised self-restraint, so she has no scruples.
Xie Jin knew that Chang Xi had been looking at him, so he said directly to Zhou Nan, "These Shi sisters are no longer suitable to stay in Jie Mansion for a short stay. Go tell your mother and ask her to arrange for someone to send the Shi sisters back."
If Shi Bichi is left here to live any longer, who knows what else she will do?
In the past, when he saw her hanging around Mr. Shi, he didn't pay much attention to her. What does a little girl from the back house have to do with him? So he never took Shi Bichi seriously.
Later, Mrs. Shi died, and Shi Bichi wanted to come to Jie Mansion to stay for a while. He saw that Mrs. Qin seemed to like this little girl, so he didn't stop her, just treating her as a cat and dog who stayed in the mansion to please Mrs. Qin.
But now, Shi Bichi has other thoughts, so that's another matter. He is not interested in the drama of "brother-in-law and sister-in-law". Just thinking about such vulgar things is disgusting enough.
Just thinking about it, he seemed to have discovered some things that he had ignored back then. Shi Bichi's thoughts about him should not be something now. Maybe they were as early as when Shi was still alive. After all, some details cannot withstand scrutiny. Yan Guo
Leaving traces, it is not difficult to find the clues as long as you think carefully.
His expression turned cold instantly.
Chang Xi had been observing the changes in Jie Jin's expression. Now she saw how he pursed his lips and couldn't hide the coldness around him. She suddenly became a little interested. Who said that men are all careless? As long as he starts to face someone seriously.
A person or something, then he can naturally see the details that he usually ignores.
Shi Bichi, a teenage girl, is not smart enough to erase all traces. Although she is a born conspirator, her age is her limit, and this cannot be solved by time.
So she sat aside to take some time to calm down and said, "I'm afraid, Mr. Jie Jiu, you will be disappointed, but Miss Shi San, you really can't leave."
When Xie Jin heard this, he looked at her with a pair of beautiful peach blossom eyes.
Chang Xi resisted the temptation of beauty and continued to say in a cool tone, "Why do you think Miss Shi Si didn't fall into the water earlier and later, but she fell into the water at this time?"
Although Xie Jin had never seen Shi Bichi until now, he did not understand Shi Bichi.
She still smiled and said, "You haven't really experienced Miss Shi San's abilities. Mr. Xie Jiu, let alone you, I'm afraid her sister-in-law, Mrs. Ninth Young Master Shi, has never seen this concubine clearly."
Xie Jin didn't like her calling Mrs. Shi the ninth young lady. He tried to explain, "There was a reason why I agreed to marry Mrs. Shi..."
Unexpectedly, Chang Xi waved her hands and said, "Whatever the reason is, it has nothing to do with me." She looked directly into his displeased eyes, "I am only interested in the cause of death of Ninth Young Lady Shi."
She is not interested in the past. For her now, being ambiguous is her interpretation of their relationship. As for the rest, I'm sorry, freedom is what she yearns for most.
"You doubt it?"
"Shh!"
Chang Xi raised her index finger to her lips, and then smiled seductively. Now that there is no evidence, there is no point in proving it. At this stage, she will not alert the enemy.
Although Xie Jin had no romantic feelings for Shi, she was still his sister who he had watched grow up. He knew from an early age that her illness was caused in the womb.
That year, the deposed prince caused trouble, and the entire Shi family suffered. The Cai family only had time to extract their son-in-law, Mr. Shi Liu, and he was demoted and returned to his hometown to save his life. The Cai family was pregnant with the Shi family.
, I gave birth to a child prematurely due to fright. The child suffered from fetal deficiency syndrome when he was born. He was very weak, so he could not stop taking medicine all year round.
He still remembered that Dr. Shen had diagnosed Shi's pulse at that time and said that she would not live to be twenty years old, so he never thought that there might be another hidden reason for Shi's death.
But how old was Shi Bichi back then? How dare she murder her eldest sister?
Shi Shi is the eyeball of her aunt, Cai Shi.
He turned his head and looked at Chang Xi steadily. Although he couldn't believe her suspicion, he knew her. She would not do anything without a target, let alone harm people casually. Look at the way she selects people for her tea brick workshop.
, look at the changes in the people waiting around her, she seems to have a feeling, and this feeling is very deep.
If he hadn't been close to her, he wouldn't have noticed.
Chang Xi watched Xie Jin's eyes gradually return to normal, knowing that he had listened to her words. It was good, it was another day of digging holes for Shi Bichi.
As long as Xie Jin is willing to investigate, he will be "surprised", so there is no need for her to say more. Talking too much is the next best thing.
Shi Bichi's actions, if Zhou Nan didn't convey Xie Jin's words, Qin would also know that she was in anger at this time, and Shi Biying's fall into the water was too coincidental, and she couldn't help but have doubts.
At this time, she looked at the Shi family's nanny who came to take Shi Bichi back to the Shi Mansion, and told her about Shi Biying falling into the water with a calm expression.
The Shi family's nanny immediately frowned. She was Cai's confidant and an old woman who had been living in the house for decades. How could she easily believe that Shi Biying suddenly fell into the water?
But this was a girl from the Shi family after all. She couldn't let the Shi family lose face in front of outsiders, so she could only say that she wanted to go over first to see how the fourth girl was doing.
Mrs. Qin did not stop her, but asked Aunt Zhong to lead her to the guest room. As for herself, she had no intention of visiting. She had clearly seen the double act of the two sisters, and she felt disgusted in her heart. She did not want to see them at all.
These two sisters.
Anyway, this Shi Biying can't die.
The only thing that made her happy was that Mrs. Chang took good care of her son. After listening to the details reported by her servants, the smile on her face never stopped, and she even used an extra bowl of breakfast.
However, this good mood was ruined by the Shi sisters.
Sure enough, Nanny Zhong came back and reported to her, "Miss Shi Si has been infected with wind-cold and has a severe fever. She is unable to leave and return to Shi Mansion at this time. Nanny Shi's family has already sent someone back to report to Mrs. Shi Liu."
When Mrs. Qin heard this, her face became a little ugly. Did she stick to the acquaintance and be unable to drive her away?
"The old lady has also been alarmed. She has already issued a message to take good care of Miss Shi Si until she recovers, so as to avoid criticism from the Shi family."
After hearing what Aunt Zhong relayed to her mother-in-law Rong, Mrs. Qin had to pretend to go over to see Shi Biying's condition no matter how uncomfortable she felt.
The old man and his wife were old. She and her husband didn't even dare to let them know about such a big event as Xie Jin's assassination, just for fear of scaring them. It would be good for Shi Bichi, if he made a noise, the whole government would know about it.
People's little thoughts are worse than they think.
As for the Shi family, the old lady still cherishes the friendship from back then, so she can't forcefully drive them away.
Shi Biying's illness was not pretending, but she actually had a high fever. Mrs. Rong sent someone to visit her, and even Mrs. Qin went to visit her. Mrs. Qian naturally couldn't sit still and went to pay a visit.
Although Chang Xi started to dig holes for Shi Bichi, the previous hypocrisy still had to be played out, so she told Xie Jin, and she also went to visit Shi Biying.
She happened to run into Qian and Jie Yuxin. Although Qian had eyes for her and a nose for her, she had a good personal relationship with Jie Yuxin, so they had to exchange pleasantries.
Jie Yuxin pulled Chang Xi and had a lot to say, but right now he was visiting a patient, so he said, "We'll talk later."
Chang Xi naturally smiled and agreed. She would not use her dislike for Qian on Jie Yuxin. The mother and daughter were essentially not the same person.
Shi Bichi came out to greet the guests attentively. Facing Chang Xi, she did not speak harshly, but spoke affectionately as before, and Chang Xi did the same, so in the eyes of outsiders, the relationship between the two was excellent.
Mrs. Qian looked at her with disgust, asked about the condition of the nanny Shi Biying, and then personally greeted the patient a few times before she turned around and left.
Chang Xi has always paid attention to Qian's attitude. There is no problem with her attitude when applied to her, but it is thought-provoking when applied to Shi Bichi.
Shi Bichi hurriedly went over to see off the guests, but Chang Xi did not follow. She and Jie Yuxin were still concerned about Shi Biying's situation, but she glanced at the two people outside from the corner of her eyes and saw that Shi Bichi didn't know what she said to Qian.
He walked away with an unhappy expression.
Qian is someone who tried to follow the path of being all-rounded and exquisite. Although she did a bad job, she still couldn't control the expression on her face. After all, she had lived for decades.
Then it can only be said that what Shi Bichi said angered her. As for what he said, Chang Xi couldn't hear it, so she could only use the information she knew to guess.
For a mother, who is the most important, naturally her children, but children also have high and low scores. For Qian, which child is the most important?
The answer is ready to come out: the second son, Jie Liuye, Jie Zhao.
Because only this son can realize her wish to be the imperial wife. As long as she takes the high school entrance examination, becoming an official is inevitable.
Anyone who dares to ruin her son's bright future is her biggest enemy. Of course, at this stage, she has to stabilize the biggest obstacle blocking her son's future.
Who told her to meet a strong opponent? I'm afraid that everything around her was infiltrated into a sieve.
From this point of view, what Dongli heard about should be pretty much the same.
