400: Sister's thoughts
Mrs. Lin followed Mother Lu back to the courtyard, leaving Xia Ruan alone to be stunned.
There were some things she couldn't think about......
It's such a simple truth, but some people just can't see through it.
"Madam......" Du Ruo's voice came from outside the door, "Fourth Miss has come to see you." ”
Xia Ruan gathered his mind and said to the outside of the house, "Let her in." ”
Because of the fact that she was kidnapped, Xiao Jiu has asked Xiao Yixue and Xiao Yuanxi to go back to live in the mansion in the capital.
Xiao Yixue's courtyard is very close to where Xiao Yuanxi lives, and when she has nothing to do, Xiao Yixue occasionally teaches Xiao Yuanxi to play the piano.
Xiao Yixue is a versatile woman, and it is precisely because of her outstanding that she was taken by the young master of the Zhang family that day.
Today's Xiao Yixue was wearing an apricot-yellow brocade dress, with a faint worry on her face.
Xia Ruan saw Xiao Yixue coming, so she got up from the soft couch: "Fourth sister...... There you are. ”
"Don't get up, don't ......" Xiao Yixue hurriedly stopped Xia Ruan, "Take care of your body." ”
In fact, Xiao Yixue never thought that her mother and grandfather would do such a thing, they would actually help outsiders to harm their younger brother and sister-in-law. No matter how wrong the younger brother and sister-in-law are, they are also relatives, how can they help outsiders to frame their relatives. Xiao Yixue couldn't understand what her mother and grandfather were thinking.
Over the years, she has seen all the life of her younger brother.
In general, it is to make compromises.
She was willing to marry into the Zhang family, also for the sake of Nan Xiao and the Lin family. The Zhang family was in a prominent position at that time, if she offended the Zhang family. Then Nan Xiao and the Lin family will also be unlucky. Xiao Yixue thought that this would be the end of her life, whether she was alive or dead, she didn't want to drag Nan Xiao and the Lin family down.
So, she married.
Even if the person she marries is a man who is not as good as a beast.
It was her life, and she confessed.
As long as my mother and grandfather are doing well, even if it is at the expense of her life, it is worth it.
Xiao Yixue found a seat farthest away from Xia Ruan and sat down. Then he asked worriedly. "Are you feeling better? I asked people to prepare some medicinal food, I don't know if you like it or not? ”
Jin Que, who was following Xiao Yixue, hurriedly walked up and put the medicinal food in his hand on the small table.
The medicinal food is still steaming hot, and the fragrance is attractive.
Xia Ruan smiled and said to Xiao Yixue: "This smell is really fragrant...... Thank you, Fourth Sister. So. You're welcome. ”
Xia Ruan picked up the medicinal food. Smell this alluring scent. The smile is getting thicker and thicker.
It's just that Jin Que's next action made Xia Ruan's whole person stunned.
Jin Que stopped Xia Ruan's action of wanting to eat, and instead took out a silver needle from his cuff. In front of Xia Ruan, he scooped up some medicinal food with a spoon, and put the silver needle in the medicinal food.
The silver needle did not change color, and Jin Que returned the spoon to Xia Ruan, bowing his head in shame, "Madam, no...... It's not toxic. ”
Regarding Jinque's actions, Xiao Yixue also lowered her head, not daring to look at Xia Ruan.
She really wanted to say thank you to Xia Ruan, so she made these medicinal meals in the kitchen, and she still asked Du Ruo for the prescription. But Xiao Yixue was afraid that Xia Ruan would guard against her, after all, her mother had treated Xia Ruan like that, so she simply let Jin Que in front of Xia Ruan, so that Xia Ruan could see that this medicinal diet was actually not poisonous.
She won't harm Xia Ruan.
Xia Ruan was stunned, and then laughed helplessly, she put the medicinal food back on the table, "Fourth sister, why bother when you do this?" ”
"I ...... I was just...... I'm useless. Xiao Yixue closed her eyes tightly, not daring to raise her head to look at Xia Ruan's expression, "I didn't poison you, I just want your body to get better." And...... I ......"
Xiao Yixue said intermittently, saying the beginning of a thing, but not the end.
She looked a little flustered, but she didn't know how to talk about it.
After all, this request is too much, Xia Ruan is good to her, she sees it in her eyes, but she can't just because Xia Ruan is good to her, she has to inch in again and again.
Xiao Yixue didn't dare to speak, and the whole person was extremely timid.
Seeing Xiao Yixue with such a look, Xia Ruan couldn't help but want to take a mirror to see if she had given birth to a child, and her face became hateful, so Xiao Yixue was so afraid of her. Xia Ruan was a little helpless, "Fourth sister, you are a relative of my Hou Ye, don't do this next time." ”
"I-" Xiao Yixue's body trembled violently, "I, I won't send anything next time." ”
Xia Ruan raised his forehead, feeling that his expression was not perfect enough, so he explained: "I mean, the medicinal food you make is very fragrant, and I like it too." You are the fourth sister of me and Hou Ye, what you gave me, you don't need to use it in such a way anymore. You and Jin Que, I both believe in you, so don't use silver needles to test poison next time. I'm not stupid, who's good to me and who's bad, I know. Fourth sister, your hands are here to play the piano, don't do these jobs anymore, you will hurt your fingers. ”
After Xiao Yixue heard this, she subconsciously hid her red and swollen hands in her cuffs.
In fact, from the moment she entered the house, Xiao Yixue was a little evasive.
When Xiao Yixue opened her mouth to say these medicinal foods that she made herself, Xia Ruan guessed a rough idea.
Although Nan Xiao is not a wealthy family, for a young lady like Xiao Yixue who does not touch the spring water, how can she make such an attractive medicinal diet? She must have done it many times, and this was the most satisfying one she had done, so she would send it to Xia Ruan.
Xiao Yixue likes to play the piano, so her fingers have always been well maintained.
Fingers are something that Xiao Yixue sees as more important than her life, and at this time, in order to make Xia Ruan's health better, Xiao Yixue did not hesitate to hurt her fingers to make medicinal food for Xia Ruan.
Although Xia Ruan liked the fragrance of this medicinal food very much, he also felt sorry for the qiē made by Xiao Yixue.
Xiao Yixue regarded herself as too humble, so she wanted to please her in this matter.
Xia Ruan felt that these were completely unnecessary.
What Aunt Lin and Master Lin did had nothing to do with Xiao Yixue at all.
Xiao Yixue doesn't need to be so humble.
"It won't hurt your fingers, I'm fine." Xiao Yixue waited for a while before she stiffened her head and said, "You taste it, see if you like the taste?" ”
Xia Ruan smiled and nodded, and then picked up the medicinal food again and tasted a few bites, the taste of the medicinal food was neither oily nor greasy, and there was a faint fragrance in the mouth. Xia Ruan has been a little picky about eating recently, but the medicinal food sent by Xiao Yixue is very appetizing to her.
Therefore, Xia Ruan didn't pay too much attention to etiquette, and ate the medicinal food in the bowl in one go.
Xiao Yixue watched Xia Ruan eat very happily, with a smile on her face, and slowly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.
Xia Ruan ran out of medicinal food, and said to Xiao Yixue with a smile, "The hands of the fourth sister can't help but play the piano beautifully, and even the things she makes are so delicious." ”
Xiao Yixue was a little embarrassed, and her expression softened a little, "If you like it, I will make it for you every day in the future." ”
"That's not good, although this meal is delicious, it is not as good as the sound of the piano played by the fourth sister." After Xia Ruan put the bowl down, he asked softly, "I also took this medicinal diet, the fourth sister came to me today, but is there something else?" ”
When Xiao Yixue heard this, the whole person looked a little embarrassed, and she didn't dare to look at Xia Ruan's expression.
Xia Ruan waved his hand, and Du Ruo and Jin Que, who were standing outside the morning door, slowly retreated from the house.
Only after Xia Ruan and Xiao Yixue were in the room did Xia Ruan speak, "Fourth sister came here today, not just to see me, right?" Fourth sister, like Master Hou, I regard you as my closest person. So, if you have something, just tell me. ”
After Xiao Yixue heard this, her red and swollen hands tightly grasped her clothes, "I know it's a bit too much, but ...... I...... I still want to beg you, please don't let the third brother hurt his mother. It's good to keep your mother in the yard and don't hurt your mother...... I know that my mother has done a lot of wrong things, and she shouldn't have done it with my grandfather. However, after all, she is the mother of me and my third brother, and no matter how wrong she is, she is also our mother. I...... I don't want her to die. ”
After Xiao Yixue finished speaking, her eyes turned red.
She knew that her mother had done too many things wrong, whether it was sorry for her father back then, or sorry for her third brother and Xia Ruan now.
Although Xiao Yixue also resented her mother in her heart, she didn't want to watch her mother die in the hands of her third brother.
"If the mother has an accident, it will not only let outsiders talk about the third brother, but also hurt the third brother himself." Xiao Yixue had tears in her eyes, "My younger brother has been well-behaved and sensible since he was a child. He will try his best to learn and do well what his mother likes. He would never do anything his mother didn't like. He knows better than we know what we like to eat and what we use...... If his mother really died at his hands, maybe he was right to do so. But outsiders will say that he is not filial, even if he doesn't care about these reputations, but ...... After all, he has lived with his mother for so many years, and his mother's death will definitely become a knot in his heart. He has already carried too much, don't let his heart carry more things. ”
When Xiao Yixue said this, she finally couldn't help crying.
When she was in Zhang's house, she was often bullied by the main house, but as soon as she thought of this younger brother, she gritted her teeth again and carried it over.
At that time, when she was about to marry into the Zhang family, no one else asked her if she was willing or not. Only her younger brother Xiao Jiu said to her in private, "Fourth sister, if you don't say a word, we won't marry." ”
She still remembers her brother's eyes.
It's just, how could she not get married?
Not only for Nan Xiao and the Lin family, but also for such a caring younger brother, she also wants to marry.
She is a weak woman in the boudoir, and she can exchange marriage for the stability of her relatives, Xiao Yixue feels that it is actually worth it.
Now, she doesn't want her brother to carry too much.
She knew that if her mother died, although her brother had nothing on the surface, there would always be a pimple in his heart.
Just like ...... My father died the same time. (To be continued......)
