Hearing a familiar voice from outside the house, Li was slightly surprised.

She stood up slowly, thoughtful.

The wind and snow outside the house were mixed, and the temperature was naturally not more pleasant than that inside the house.

Xia Ruan followed out with a crane: "Mother, it's freezing outside." ”

After speaking, she put the crane in her hand on the Li family.

Li spoke to Xia Ruan in private, and Duran and Ai Ye did not wait in the house.

At this time, the two of them stood outside the courtyard, looking at the kneeling people outside the courtyard gate with some panic.

I saw that the girl was drenched, her hair was already a little messy, and the whole person shrunk into a ball and shivered.

"Is it fennel?" Li asked tentatively, "Why are you here?" ”

Xia Ruan was not much surprised by the arrival of fennel, after all, she knew that there would be such a day since she sent fennel to Xia Wen's house.

This matter, in her eyes, is only sooner or later.

"Madame...... Madame ...... "Fennel cried and felt like she was about to faint," "Please save the slave." ”

Li's brows furrowed, and he said to Xia Ruan: "Could it be that something happened to Bai Teng?" ”

"How so?" Xia Ruan pretended to be puzzled, "Bai Teng has been taking care of Du Ruo and Cuiliu these days, what else is there to worry about the two of their mothers?" I see that Fennel is also a sensible girl on weekdays, and she will cry like this today, something must have happened. Mother, you go into the house, and I'll let Fennel come in and talk to you. ”

After hearing this, Li nodded: "It's okay." You let the fennel in. ”

After Li finished speaking, he turned around and entered the house.

Fennel watched Li enter the room, her face was a little whiter than snow, and her body was even more shaky.

Xia Ruan had a little smile in his eyes, and said to the outside of the courtyard: "Duran, let Fennel come into the house." ”

After listening to Xia Ruan's words, Fennel's eyes regained clarity. She quickly got up from the ground, and then walked towards the house in a panic.

Duran looked at Fennel with a blue face, a little displeased.

What kind of person Fennel is, she naturally knows it clearly. These days. Fennel and Xia Wen quarrel in private. She had heard some of it, too. It's just that Mother Wan next to Xia Wen is really a capable person, and she can make Xia Wen endure fennel for so long.

Ai Ye looked at the background of fennel, and then said to Duran, "Sister Duran." Fennel looks like this. It's pathetic. ”

"What's there to be pitiful? She's going to be fine. Duran sneered. It is a blessing for us to be able to do things in the Xia family, who has a bodhisattva heart like our young lady who is willing to take fennel. When Fennel came into the house. also brought a younger sister, and these days Miss also asked Sister Cuiliu to take care of Bai Teng. Those of us who are subordinates cry and cry in front of Miss and Mrs. when we suffer some small grievances, what do we look like. ”

After Ai Ye heard this, he was slightly stunned.

After half a ring, Ai Ye nodded and said, "What Sister Duran said is that the third lady is kind to us, and she rewarded me with a lot of silver a few days ago. ”

Duran was very satisfied.

A person like Fennel should let Miss Fourth toss it well.

Outside, Du Lan and Ai Ye's discussions, Xia Ruan naturally couldn't hear them.

Fennel cried about how Xia Wen treated her, while pretending to be thin.

Xia Ruan didn't pay attention to it at all, because she didn't have to guess to know what was going on.

She distracted herself a little and began to think about what her mother had just said.

A few days ago, she had already told her third uncle that Ning Guiren was Xia Qinghe, and the third uncle was somewhat surprised at that time.

Li Changfeng always thought that Xia Fugui's family had been buried in the fire.

If Xia Qinghe were a noble person, the situation would be a little different.

Empress Jiang lost at this time, so Ning Guiren might rely on the prince in her belly to stand on a higher position. Moreover, Xia Ruan heard from Nanting's mouth that Cinnabar had been buying a spice recently, which could be used to make polyponic pills. This medicinal aphrodisiac/aphrodisiac effect, and after the woman takes it, the whole body will emit a deadly fragrance, and the man will be unable to stop after smelling it.

Cinnabar is a man, what does he want to do with the polyphysis pills? Moreover, although polypin pills can make a woman's face look rejuvenated, it has a fatal weakness, and women are prone to infertility after taking it.

Xia Ruan kept wondering if this medicine was sent to the palace.

After all, she was somewhat surprised when she saw Ning Guiren.

Moreover, the spices that Du Ruo smelled on the water nobleman had already made her feel a little vigilant.

Now judging from the situation in the palace, the third uncle must have found out something.

Empress Jiang will die in the end, but Empress Jiang's death must be valuable, not paving the way for people.

……

"What do you say? Xia Wen? Li exhaled in surprise, "How could she do such a thing." ”

Xia Ruan was interrupted by her mother's raised voice, and quickly gathered her mind to look at the fennel that was about to cry.

"Mother." Xia Ruan comforted the Li family, "Daughter went to call Wen to ask?" ”

Li raised his head with an unbelievable look in his eyes: "How could she develop such a tricky temperament...... How could she be. ”

When Fennel heard this, she cried even more: "Madame, please, please save the slave and maid, the fourth lady said that she would kill the slave and maid." The slave and the maid can't die, the slave and the maid still have a sister, and the slave and the maid still want to watch their sister grow up. Madame, you are a bodhisattva, please save the slave and the maid, the slave and the maid dare not go back...... The slave was really afraid. ”

Li rubbed his eyebrows, feeling a splitting headache.

Xia Ruan looked at her mother like this, and continued to comfort: "Miss Wen is still young, she may have been with her aunt for too long, and she has learned some things that she shouldn't learn, she can change it in the future, don't worry, mother." ”

It's okay that Xia Ruan didn't mention the three words of the eldest aunt, but as soon as she mentioned the three words of the eldest aunt, Li's face suddenly turned pale.

In the past, the Li family suffered a lot of sins in the hands of the Zhao family, and if Xia Wen also became a force like the Zhao family, they would naturally be the unlucky people at that time.

Li snorted coldly: "In a few years, she will be in time, where is she still young?" Now that he can do such a thing, his tricky temperament has been cultivated. Go and have someone call her to me, I won't punish her today, she will really dare to do more terrible things in the future. ”

Fennel used to follow Xia Ruan's side, and she has always been a well-behaved and sensible girl, and Xia Ruan has also praised Fennel these days.

Xia Ruan continued to take Xia Wen by her side regardless of her previous suspicions, vacated the Ruoya Pavilion next door for Xia Wen to live in, and even asked her personal girl Fennel to serve Xia Wen. But what is Xia Wen doing now?

From the beginning of Empress Jiang's affairs, the Li family was wary of Xia Ruan.

Sure enough, it's only been a few days before something like this happens.

Fennel sobbed: "Madame, Miss Fourth a few days ago, she was still ......"

"What else is she doing?" Li Shi was angry now, and after listening to Fennel's words, he couldn't help but ask, "What else did she do?" ”

Fennel hurriedly kowtowed to Li's family, looking like a young beast: "The slave doesn't dare to say it." ”

The more Fennel said this, the more it made Li curious about what Xia Wen said.

Li stood up on the other chairs: "Fennel, you say, it's okay." ”

Listening to Li's words, Fennel raised her head, her eyes red and swollen: "Fourth Miss cursed Third Miss and Little Master a few days ago, and Fourth Miss said that Third Miss and Little Master are dead little hooves, and sooner or later they will ......."

"It's the other way around." Li's eyes widened, she believed that Xia Wen had said these words.

She had seen Xia Wen insult her daughter in front of her before, and now that she heard such words from Fennel's mouth, the Li family was naturally furious.

"Mother, you dissipate your anger." Xia Ruan comforted Li while helping Li to sit down, "My daughter will go to find Wen Yatou immediately, don't worry, mother." ”

Xia Ruan comforted a few more words before walking out of the house.

She really didn't think wrong at the beginning, Fennel and Xia Wen really fought among themselves.

Fennel is Heyue's person, and she doesn't know what kind of person Heyue is, but He Yue will let Fennel come to her side, which shows that Fennel is not a simple person. Otherwise, why do so many subordinates choose fennel to come to her side?

Fennel does have a plan, and her mother and the people around her think she is a good girl.

However, the mistake of fennel is that she is too confident.

Fennel thought she had coaxed everyone around her, including her, Xia Ruan.

If it weren't for Bai Teng, Xia Ruan might have entered the game set by Fennel early, but because of Bai Teng's existence, she became suspicious of Fennel from the beginning. Especially after knowing that the person behind Fennel was He Yue, she never took Fennel lightly.

Is fennel going to be removed from the Xia family? Naturally, it is wanted.

But to get rid of fennel, you can't let her do it.

So Xia Wen and Fennel are making such a fuss, so she can know what the mysterious mother-in-law next to Xia Wen will do.

She has been investigating Xia Wen's mother Wan these days, and Steward Wang went to the countryside to investigate, and told her with some hesitation that Mother Wan had no relatives and moved to live near Zhuangzi ten years ago. And Wan's mother is withdrawn, and she doesn't have many acquaintances in the countryside, and the people around her just know that there is such a person, but the details are not very clear.

After Xia Ruan heard this, he felt that it was very weird.

If Mother Wan is really an extremely withdrawn person, why would she save Xia Wen.

Thinking of this, Xia Ruan couldn't help but smile faintly.

Du Lan saw Xia Wen come out, and couldn't help but be surprised: "Miss, is this going back to Begonia Garden?" ”

"It's not." Xia Ruan shook his head and said to Du Lan, "You go to Ruoya Pavilion now and pick up Fourth Miss." By the way, remember to ask Mother Wan to come over, my mother and I have something I want to ask Miss Four. ”

Duran was a little puzzled, but he replied quickly: "The slave knows, and the slave will go immediately." ”

Xia Ruan thought for a while before slowly entering the house.

Mother should be about to be disappointed in Xia Wen, right? (To be continued......)
