Xie Songhua nodded and told the story about being poisoned by the love medicine. Of course, he omitted the part about Yu Ruzhuo and only said that he had a silver needle on his body and detoxified him in time.
This is of course nonsense, but fortunately the old lady and Xie Yuncang didn't know much about her medical skills, so they didn't raise any suspicion.
What's more, the detoxification process is nothing compared to what Xie Songhua told them.
Xie Yuncang couldn't believe it, "Are you telling the truth?"
Xie Songhua knew that he was not doubting himself when he asked this question, but he was in disbelief about the matter itself. "Actually, I hesitated for a long time today, not knowing whether I should say this.
After all, I don’t have any evidence, but if I think about it carefully, if I hadn’t remembered my grandmother’s words and chased her out, and I happened to have the dagger given to me by my elder brother, and I actually saved myself with my meager medical skills.
Once, the consequences... were unimaginable.
Xie Shuhua and I are not on good terms. This is something that both my grandmother and father know. Therefore, the accusation I am making against her now is, to be honest, not credible. So let’s ignore my grandmother and father and take what I just said as a warning!
If something happens in the future, you can take precautions."...
"Crack!"
The tea cup in the old lady's hand was suddenly brushed to the ground. The old lady, who had been silent until now, suddenly said angrily: "Send her away!"
His angry look was something Xie Songhua had never seen before in all his years here, and he couldn't help but be stunned.
Xie Yuncang was afraid of making the old lady sick because of her anger, so he quickly said: "Mom, calm down first, don't hurt your body."
"Calm down?!" The old lady was so angry that her hands were shaking, "Why do you keep such a bad seed at home? Do you want to kill all the children of my Xie family?"
I just thought that Xie Shuhua was narrow-minded and selfish, and she only harbored ill intentions towards the fourth girl. I didn't expect that she was actually... so cruel. We didn't have a person at home, we had a venomous snake!
Viper!"
Xie Yuncang was obviously very angry, and the veins on his forehead popped out, but he was still worried that the old lady would be angry, so he had to suppress his emotions and comfort his mother first, "Mom, don't worry, the princess's
Just after the banquet, she went to the eldest princess's mansion. She will inevitably attract attention when sending people away. Don't worry, you can leave this matter to your son, and he will handle it properly. "
The old lady's anger obviously failed to be calmed by his words. She glared at Xie Yuncang, "Are you still worried about your wife?!"
Xie Yuncang's face was a little embarrassed and he glanced at Xie Songhua.
Xie Songhua immediately understood the meaning of this glance. The younger generation cannot listen to the right and wrong of the elders. Now the old lady talks about the Qi family in front of her, which will damage the old lady's dignity.
Xie Songhua immediately stood up to say goodbye and went to the Yanchundai.
As for what the old lady and her son said, she didn't know, and no one would tell her. After all, she had not yet entered the Xie family's decision-making circle, and she was not qualified to listen to some of the family's decisions and judgments.
But it wasn't that she didn't know it at all, because on the afternoon of the next day, she was called to Mengpoju by Xie Yuncang.
When she came, the room was quiet. Xie Yuncang sat in an armchair with his eyes closed, his face showing a hint of exhaustion.
After Xie Songhua entered the house, he saw that the daylight was good outside, but the room was a little dull because of the incense burner, so he walked to the window and gently opened the window to ventilate the room.
This move made Xie Yuncang wake up immediately. Seeing her opening the window, he asked warmly: "When did you come? Why didn't you wake me up?"
"Father looks a little tired. He must have rarely taken a nap, but I woke you up."
Apart from their status as father and daughter, Xie Songhua actually admired Xie Yuncang in his heart. As the second assistant, he had almost no time for himself. The official documents he handled could be seen everywhere in the study.
Even when he is at home on vacation, he spends most of his time discussing court affairs with his staff in the study. When he has some time, he never forgets to go to Shou'an Hall to pay his respects to the old lady, and after seeing his mother's condition, he goes to Concubine Ji's house.
.
Of course, in the current situation, he basically went to the concubine's house, and he didn't go to the Summer Palace very much anymore.
But this is very rare, so even if he has several aunts, the inner house is still relatively peaceful, and there is probably nothing to argue about.
In any case, from the perspective of the common people in the world, it is a great blessing to have such a secondary minister who takes care of state affairs.
So even though she knew that from her father's point of view, Xie Yuncang was not a competent person, she could not feel any resentment toward him.
"Nothing." Xie Yuncang stood up from the armchair, but the pole in her hand held up the window for her. Then she glanced at the apricot tree in the yard outside the window, "It's spring, time flies so fast, last year's
It was at this time that I heard the news about you."
Xie Songhua just stood with a faint smile.
Xie Yuncang's eyes turned from the tree outside the window to her.
The girl seems to have grown taller. She stands here with a graceful look, just like the apricot tree outside the window, with a budding beauty.
It has only been a year, and the girl in front of him is completely different from when he first went to Jiang's house to see her last year.
He felt a little emotional and a little dazed in his heart. He couldn't help but think of another girl, and his brows that had just relaxed tightened again.
He walked directly to the desk and sat down, his eyes falling on Xie Songhua, "I have already checked, and the guess you told us last night is true."
Xie Songhua looked at him in surprise. She thought she would never tell her about this matter again.
"During this period, Xie Shuhua pawned part of her valuable jewelry. Her maids not only went in and out of clothing and jewelry shops, but also went to places that sold drugs that were not allowed to be sold."
Xie Songhua's breathing became lighter. Her eyes fell firmly on Xie Yuncang's face, wondering what kind of decision the head of the Xie family would make after confirming what she said.
Xie Yuncang pointed to the chair below, "Sit down first!"
"What are you thinking?" Xie Yuncang's first words after she sat down were somewhat beyond Xie Songhua's expectations.
She was stunned for a moment, then asked, "What?"
"She designed to frame you like this. What are you thinking? What are your plans?"
Xie Yuncang's eyes fell on Xie Songhua, which seemed to have a little extra weight inexplicably, making Xie Songhua feel uncomfortable even when sitting.
She thought for a while, then seriously met his eyes and said, "I hope she can leave my world, but I don't want her to return to the Jiang family."
There was a very light breeze blowing outside the window, sweeping over Xie Songhua's ears and tickling her body. It also made her seem to be separated from this time and space, watching herself and the person opposite her like a bystander.
A man who is a father.
She saw Xie Yuncang looking at her indifferently, and saw the look on her face that was almost copied and pasted from his.
"You don't want to take revenge on her?"
Xie Songhua shook his head gently, "It's not that I don't want to, it's that I can't."
"oh?"
"I don't have the ability," she admitted truthfully, "I don't have the ability to take revenge on her without affecting myself or the Xie family, unless my revenge is just to go to her yard and smash it up, just like what she did to me before.
So, but even so, it has an impact on me."
These words seemed to arouse Xie Yuncang's interest. He actually raised one corner of his lips, showing a very rare playful expression, "What's the impact?"
