Because she knew that her father's words last night had completely cut off the Yang family's retreat. Even if Xie Feng would not divorce Yang family from the Hou Mansion because of the Yang family, from now on, the second lady of the Hou Mansion would only
I can stay in the house to recuperate.
The next day, when Xie Wu went to Ronghuayuan to pay her respects to the old lady, the old lady's words further confirmed Xie Wu's guess.
only……
"Sister Wu, Doctor Li said that although he helped your second aunt reattach the bones, it is impossible for your second aunt's hand to be restored to its original state." After the old lady finished speaking, she began to look at her calmly.
Xie Wu’s look.
But when the girl sitting on the chair below heard her words, her face didn't waver at all, and she didn't even blink her eyes.
After what happened last night, the old lady looked at her granddaughter, and the more she looked at her, the more she felt unfathomable!
She has scheming, means, and government... She has everything that ordinary boudoir girls don't have. Moreover, she is calm and courageous, and can be ruthless at critical moments!
I'm afraid that idiot Yang still hasn't figured out why he didn't catch Xie Wu because of Xie Wu's trap, but instead caught his own daughter!
Seeing that Xie Wu didn't want to answer her words, the old lady frowned, and then said, "I heard that the maid next to you was selected from the Zhuangzi last time?"
"Yes." Xie Wu looked at the old lady calmly and replied.
The old lady sneered and raised the corners of her lips, and then continued, "She has some skills in her. With just a gentle squeeze, your second aunt's hand broke."
"Xie Yu grew up in the countryside, so she has a lot of strength in her body." Xie Wu replied with a smile.
As for the old lady's words, she had a lot of work to do, but she just pretended not to hear.
The old lady raised her eyebrows and smiled lightly, then asked, "Why didn't you take her with you today?"
Xie Wu smiled lightly and replied, "I would like to take her with me. However, my father said that she has a good talent, so she begged me this morning and said that she would be handed over to Uncle Qin to teach her.
Kung Fu, if you say this, you will be able to protect me better in the future."
Xie Wu's words made the old lady feel slightly embarrassed. She frowned, glanced at Xie Wu lightly, and then said, "Anyway, your second aunt has now received the punishment she deserves. But Yuan
Sister..." The old lady looked at Xie Wu again, and then continued, "What do you think should be done?"
Xie Wu raised her eyes to look at the old lady and smiled sweetly. She said, "My granddaughter will listen to my grandmother in everything."
The old lady also closed her eyes and smiled at Xie Wu. She leaned to the left and put her left hand on the armrest. Then she looked at Xie Wu and said with a smile, "It shouldn't be...according to your temperament."
, since you dare to make things happen, you must have thought about how to end it!"
Xie Wu curved her lips and smiled, her slender phoenix eyes sparkling, and the mole in the corner of her eye added a bit of charm and charm to her. She did not refute the old lady's words, but followed her words and said, "Grandma
If you have something to say, why don’t you just say it?”
Seeing that she didn't do Tai Chi with her as before, the old lady's voice became a little lighter, "So, you really knew Yang's plan early on."
"Yes." Xie Wu admitted this directly without any excuse.
"Sister Nayuan fainted..."
"I asked Suiyu to get the drug pills from her while she was pouring tea." Xie Wu said in a clear voice.
The old lady sneered and raised her eyebrows, "Well, needless to say, you set the fire!"
"Yes." Xie Wu nodded and admitted again.
The smile on the old lady's face finally faded away bit by bit. She stared at Xie Wu coldly with her eyes closed, and she kept looking at her like this, without speaking or smiling.
The room suddenly became extremely quiet.
Aunt Zhu, who was standing behind the old lady, couldn't help but shed a cold sweat for Xie Wu at this time, because she knew that the old lady was really angry.
She didn't understand why the eldest girl would admit this to the old lady!
As long as she doesn't admit it, the old lady won't be able to produce any evidence no matter how suspicious she is, and now...
No matter how wrong the second lady is, she is a direct daughter of the Hou family after all! Although the root cause is that the second lady had bad intentions and set up a trap to harm the eldest girl, but since the eldest lady already knew the second lady's plan, then why not
It was too early to enter the game, but she managed to trick the second lady and the second girl together.
Now, the second girl's reputation is ruined, but isn't the reputation of the Marquis Mansion also ruined?
The eldest girl is so smart, how could she not take this into consideration?
But Xie Wu still looked calm and composed. Even when the old lady looked at her, she looked back at her with the same smile on her face.
There was no panic.
No fear.
Not even the slightest bit moved.
And such Xie Wu is undoubtedly a provocation to the old lady!
Is she so sure that she can't cure her?
"Sister Yuan is your sister." The old lady said with a cold face through her teeth.
"She is my sister. Am I not her sister? She was watching her mother plotting against me. Did she ever think that I was her sister? When she cooperated with her mother and her cousin to push me into the trap, she
Have you ever thought that I am her sister? She doesn't even think that I am her sister, so why should I rush to recognize her as my sister!" Xie Wu looked directly at the old lady, and a layer of coldness gradually formed on her charming face.
Frost.
In her entire life, she hated it most when someone used her identity as a shield to excuse herself!
The old lady was speechless for a moment by Xie Wu's words. After a while, she found her voice again, "But have you thought about the Hou Mansion when you did this? You are also a girl from the Hou Mansion, Yuan
If my sister’s reputation is ruined, it will also have an impact on you! Your surname is Xie!”
Although she doesn't like Xie Yuan very much, but there are only two legitimate girls in the Hou family, and they are both at the age of marriage. If her reputation is ruined at this time, won't all the hard work she put in in the past ten years be wasted?
She originally hoped to use their marriage to find a good help for the Hou family!
"What impact can it have? On the Lantern Festival, the hero of the Yang family saves the beauty. This should be regarded as a 'good story'!"
Seeing the smile on Xie Wu's lips, the old lady narrowed her eyes. When she looked at Xie Wu again, her eyes were much calmer and softer.
She didn't sleep last night, just thinking about how to deal with this matter in the best way, and the method she thought of was exactly the same as Xie Wu's - make the wrong mistake and book the marriage between Xie Yuan and Yang Xiao!
Dongping Bofu and Wu'an Houfu are already related by marriage, and Yang Xiao and Xie Yuan are cousins. This can be regarded as a close relationship! What's more, Yang Xiao's father is the deputy commander of the Jinyi Guards. No matter how you look at this marriage,
Sister Yuan is not considered 'grieved' anymore.
But……
"If you want it to be spread as a 'good story', then the Yang family has to take the initiative to come to ask for your hand in marriage! It's a pity that your second aunt's hand is broken, otherwise, it would be most appropriate for her to appear in this matter." The old lady looked at Xie Wu and meant
The deep way.
Xie Wu knew why Yang's hand was broken without the old lady reminding her.
The old lady may have thought of this method for a long time, but now, she is not sure about the Yang family's intentions, and she doesn't want to come to the door rashly and ask for trouble!
Although Xie Yuan is a direct daughter of the Hou family, she is actually the daughter of the second wife. Seriously speaking, her father Xie Feng is just a seventh-grade official. Although it is a real job, if he is to serve as the deputy commander of the Jinyi Guards
After all, the envoy's son is still a bit inferior. Moreover, although Yang Hefeng is the elder brother of the Yang family, he is the adopted son of Yong Ningbo from a side branch. Can he agree to this awkward marriage because of the brother-sister relationship?
The old lady really didn't have much confidence in her heart.
"Second aunt was injured in such a serious matter. Shouldn't grandma send someone to inform Mrs. Yongningbo?"
Shallow arc.
After hearing Xie Wu's words, the old lady was startled, and then her eyes quickly became filled with shock and surprise.
She was not surprised that Xie Wu would think of Mrs. Yongningbo as a candidate. After all, apart from Yang, the only person who was most suitable to open this door to Yang Hefeng on behalf of the Marquis was Mrs. Yongningbo.
But why Yang and Xie Yuan ended up like this was all because of Xie Wu! Even Yang's hand was broken off by the maid in front of Xie Wu! Isn't Xie Wu afraid that Mrs. Yongning will settle accounts with her?
As if she could tell what the old lady was thinking, Xie Wu curved her lips and smiled again, and said in a clear voice, "Second uncle came forward, and it concerns the second sister...Second aunt is a smart person, she knows what to say,
What not to say."
No, the old lady sneered after hearing Xie Wu's words. She said, "I'm afraid you've got a different idea this time. I'm afraid your second aunt may not like this marriage!"
The person Yang is interested in is Lu Zhan!
Who is Lu Zhan? The current emperor's direct grandson, the second son of Dingguo Duke's mansion, was chosen as the most beautiful man at the age of sixteen. All the noble ladies in the capital would not want to kidnap him back to be their son-in-law. With such a situation
Comparing the characters, Yang Xiao is simply not good enough!
"Grandma, do you think Second Aunt has other options at this time?" Xie Wu raised her eyebrows.
The old lady pursed her lips and said no more.
After all that needed to be said, Xie Wu smiled lightly, then stood up and blessed the old lady. She said, "Grandma, I have told you everything you want to know. If there is nothing else, my granddaughter will leave first.
"
Xie Wu's salute movements were elegant and smooth, and even the slight tilt of her chin was just right.
She suddenly couldn't remember what she was like before...
Just when Xie Wu was about to turn around, the old lady finally couldn't hold back and said, "Sister Wu, this is who you really are!"
Xie Wu raised her eyes, her slender phoenix eyes were sparkling, but underneath the waves there was a dark light that no one could understand or guess.
She had actually wanted to ask for a long time.
No matter how a person changes, she cannot become so smart overnight. The only possibility is that she has been hiding her true self in the past.
But if that's the case, then she's really good at hiding it.
After all, in the past ten years, no one in the Hou family has discovered this. She not only hid it from her, but also hid it from Yang and the people Yang put in front of her.
"Grandma, do you care what I am like? Smart? Stupid? Arrogant? Do you care?" Xie Wu looked at the old lady with a smile. She still had a smile on her face, and even her voice was gentle.
It was exactly the same as before, but there was undisguised indifference and sarcasm in those twinkling and deep eyes.
The old lady's hand on her lap suddenly clenched into a fist.
Xie Wu smiled again and continued, "You don't care. To you, I am just the daughter of the merchant girl you hate the most. Moreover, I am the one who was left behind...I can't wait for you."
You are a man of the house, and you cannot keep your daughter-in-law who is an eyesore to you to grind out your anger. How could you like me like this? If my mother were not the wife of the crown prince, and if I was not the legitimate daughter-in-law, I am afraid that I would have been killed by my grandmother long ago.
Send him to a remote village!"
"Girl, how can you talk to the old lady like this!" Seeing the old lady's cold expression and the deep wrinkles in the skirt of her legs, Grandma Zhu couldn't help but frown and interrupted Xie Wu's words.
What's wrong with the girl today?
Why are you jabbing every word into the old lady's lungs?
