Drops of water fell down the fingertips of the stone vines to the ground, and the splashes of water raised dust from the ground. Holding a red and white koi in the palm of his hand, he opened his mouth in vain to grab the air, and sometimes struggled.

The slippery fish couldn't break free from the stone vine's palm, as if her hands were full of suction cups to hold it firmly.

Shi Manman grabbed the koi and looked at Yun Bi, who was crying on Xiao Lei, and frowned.

"This ...... She ...... "Xiao Lei opened his hand and swayed in the air in a panic, for fear of touching Yunbi." Yunbi's unexpected pounce caught Xiao Lei off guard.

"Killed." Shi Manman said coldly.

Yun Bi's heart skipped a beat. Killed? Did Shi Manman actually let Childe kill him?

Shi Manman's words surprised Xiao Lei, but seeing Shi Manman, she pushed the koi fish in her hand forward, and immediately understood what she meant.

Pushing Yun Bi away, Xiao Lei tried to sit up. Although the injury was mostly healed, the simple act of getting up still made him sweat profusely. He waved his hand and refused Yun Bi's support, Yun Bi bit her lip and stood aside quietly like a wronged little daughter-in-law.

"You go back first. We'll talk about it when I'm well. Don't do anything like that. Xiao Lei no longer asked Yun Bi to go to Xiao Lei's courtyard for the matter, for fear that she would "lose control" of her emotions again. Although Yun Bi's body is thin, the scarred Xiao Lei can't help but press it like that.

Xiao Lei no longer mentioned letting him leave, which made Yun Bi's heart relax temporarily, and when she wanted to beg to stay by his side tonight to take care of her, Xiao Lei's last sentence made her eager to find a crack.

After calming down, Yunbi remembered what she had just done, and she couldn't stand still in this room for a moment. After saying goodbye to Xiao Lei hastily, he almost trotted away. After leaving the courtyard, she took a step in the direction of Qiansuju, seemed to remember something, and hurriedly turned around and walked towards Xiao Yuan's courtyard.

Yun Bi came to the door of Xiao Yuanyuan Courtyard and knocked on the door, but was stopped by a mother-in-law.

"I'm in a hurry to find my lord." Yunbi glanced anxiously at the courtyard.

"The lord commanded, if it is not a matter of human life tonight, no one is allowed to disturb it." The woman slammed the door with one hand and didn't let Yunbi push the door in.

Yun Bi stood in place and was silent for a while, without pushing the door or arguing loudly with her mother-in-law about the importance of the matter she wanted to pass on.

"Then I'll come back tomorrow." Yun Bi smiled at her mother-in-law and left.

At the other end of the Xiao family, Xiao Jin was half-leaning on the soft couch, and Huan Yan gently rubbed her temples for her.

"Father agreed that Xiao He's cousin's banquet would be held at Xiao's house? How many days are left? Xiao Jin waved his hand, signaled Huan Yan to stop, sat up straight and asked Steward Zhang in front of him.

Xiao Yuan temporarily handed over the power of the Xiao Mansion to Xiao Jin, and he still had to deal with those bad debts.

"Twenty days." Steward Zhang replied.

"Well, there's still plenty of time. Uncle Zhang also knew that in addition to some things in the Xiao family in the past few days, before his aunt and grandmother recovered, he hoped that Uncle Zhang could take care of him more. I'm too weak to think too much, and I'm going to trouble you a lot of complicated things. Xiao Jin said.

"It's a small duty." Steward Zhang bowed over, not daring to accept Xiao Jin's politeness.

"After a few days of Lei'er's affairs calming down, Steward Zhang will go and prepare the objects for Xiao He's cousin's table. Since it is in my Xiao family, I can't afford to lose the dignity of the Xiao family, and the last thing the Xiao family lacks is money. Xiao Jin thought for a while and said.

"This ......," Steward Zhang still remembered Xiao Yuan's disgusting expression as if he had swallowed a fly when he had to agree to this.

"Uncle Zhang has something to say, it's okay." Xiao Jin saw that Steward Zhang wanted to speak and stopped, thinking that he had made some decision that made him disapprove.

"At the beginning, the master was forced to agree." Steward Zhang looked disdainful when he mentioned this.

"The people of the tribe...... Jin'er has also seen it. Xiao Jin still remembers that they forced Xiao Yuan to pass by.

"Just do as I say. I'll tell my father. Today's matter is like this, the Xiao family injured three people, and tomorrow I will ask Imperial Doctor Chen if he is free. Grandmother, I was relieved that she was still asking him to see her sick. If you really can't find it, you have to settle for the next best thing. "Imperial Doctor Chen handed over the statement to the emperor three years ago because of his advanced age, and his temper was a little strange.

Steward Zhang only agreed, but in his heart he didn't do anything to Xiao Jin. Xiao Yuan saw the faces of the people in the clan clearly after Xiao Lei's accident, and he was extremely disgusted with the people in the clan. Xiao Jin didn't even discuss with Xiao Yuan, and arbitrarily ordered Xiao He's banquet to be done decently, I don't know if the old man will have any objections after he knows about it.

The sound of tapping footsteps echoed on the long pavilion corridor, and Huan Yan helped Xiao Jin slowly walk towards the Yusheng Courtyard. The wind blowing through the night blew the lantern in Huanyan's hand swaying.

"Miss, Steward Zhang doesn't seem to agree with your statement." Huan Yan said softly, as if he was afraid of alarming the dormant animals in the silent corner.

"If those people in the clan are elders or rathers with the crown of elders, if they do something wrong, I will believe that these people will shout in the street that the Xiao family is mean to them. Then let's do a big deal, give them enough face, and as for the rest of it......" Xiao Jin didn't continue, her lantern-illuminated eyes sparkled, and she couldn't see what she was thinking.

"I'll go see Lei'er." When passing by Xiao Lei's courtyard, Xiao Jin stopped and asked Huan Yan to knock on the door.

"Who!" A hoarse and annoyed inquiry came from inside the door.

"Ah, Miss Huanyan, are you here to visit your son?" An old yellow face peeked out of the crack in the door. The mother-in-law's unkempt appearance made Huan Jian take a small step back slightly, and the mother-in-law didn't know what she had eaten tonight, and the breath she exhaled was smoky, and she frowned and covered her nose.

The mother-in-law grinned awkwardly, took a few steps back, and opened the door to let Xiao Jin in. When Xiao Jin and Huan Yan were far away, they secretly snorted at Huan Yan's back, and paced back to the hut next to the door to rest.

After taking a few steps, a fresh fragrance with a burnt smell wafted in the wind from Xiao Jin's right. Xiao Jin curiously adapted the direction and walked in the direction where the taste came from.

"Miss, let the maidservant go and have a look first." Huan Yan said carefully. After Xiao Jin was bitten by a snake last time, he was fined Yueyin for not suffering from flesh and skin. If something happens to Xiao Jin again, she will wait to be sold.

"This is in Lei's Hospital, what danger can there be." Xiao Jin shook his head disapprovingly, and continued to walk forward despite Huanyan's obstruction.

Huan Wei followed Xiao Jin vigilantly, she was ready to pull Xiao Jin away as long as there was a little abnormality.

The fragrance became stronger and stronger, and as she approached, Xiao Jin seemed to see the flickering firelight. In the empty space between the room and the wall, she looked dumbfounded at Xiao Lei, who was squatting on the ground in his coat, his hand nimbly flipping the fish on the fire.

Was she dreaming? The dignified son of the Xiao family grilling fish in a remote corner of his yard? Didn't he be punished with the rod? At this moment, I should be in bed to recuperate.
