Dr. Zhang said that he was ashamed, so he took the initiative to bring up the matter, and at that time, Steward Li couldn't wait to finish this errand and go home, and he was naturally happy to have someone to help.

So in the end, it was Dr. Zhang who blinded everyone.

Su Xue smiled bitterly and shook her head.

It's okay to save her from not succeeding here, and she also caused Xuemei to be dug up in vain.

I don't kill Boren, but Su Xue still understands the reason why Boren died because of me, so she still feels a little guilty about Xuemei in her heart.

But what about guilt, not to mention that people can't be resurrected after death, and even justice can't help Xuemei get it back. can only quietly send Qianrou to buy some paper money and hand it over to Dr. Zhang to burn it for Xuemei.

On the old lady's side, although the pain was relieved for a while under Su Xue's acupuncture, the disease still needed long-term recuperation. The prescription prescribed by Li Yuan was correct, and the old lady was still taking it on time, but every night before going to bed, Su Xue would go to the old lady's room to take acupoints and massage the old lady.

"After the third lady recuperated like this, the old lady slept soundly at night, and she didn't cry tinnitus for a while." Mother Hu said with a smile as she handed Su Xue a cup of tea.

Su Xue took it with a light smile and said, "Seeing that my grandmother is getting better day by day, Su Xue is really happy in her heart." ”

After speaking, he sipped the tea lightly.

Before, the old lady only waited for her to press the acupuncture points, and after pressing it, she fell asleep by the way, and only tonight was awake for the first time, so she chatted with her a few more words.

Su Xue secretly estimated to herself, wanting to seize this opportunity to tell the old lady about her idea of quitting the marriage.

When the old lady heard Mother Hu say that, she also smiled and nodded: "Yes, Sister Xue'er has a good technique." I was so comfortable that I just wanted to go to sleep right away. Now I sleep until dawn. I feel refreshed every day, and I feel that this old bone is several years younger! ”

Su Xue covered her mouth and smiled: "Look at what grandmother said, grandmother is already old and strong, and she is full of energy!" ”

The old lady smiled even more.

Su Xue secretly took a breath, thinking about quickly leading the topic over, but before she could start, the maid okra who was guarding outside the curtain shouted inside: "Mother Qin is here." ”

Su Xue's eyes tightened, and now the second wife is still hiding in the room. Mother Qin is not by her side to take care of her, what are you doing here with the old lady?

Just thinking about it, Mother Qin had already walked in with a smile on her face, and first saluted the old lady, singing how anxious the second lady was and worried about the old lady's body.

Su Xue had no intention of listening to these songs, seeing that the hour was not early, and Mother Qin was here, it was inconvenient for her to mention the divorce, so she was ready to get up and say goodbye.

Unexpectedly, Qin's mother immediately turned around and called out to her.

"Third Miss, in fact, the old slave is coming to find Third Miss."

She smiled at Su Xue. The strange joy on her face made Su Xue's heart more and more uneasy.

The second lady couldn't go out, but she was thinking about the old lady all the time. Thinking about the third lady! Today, there was a messenger boy in the house, and the third lady was taking a nap at that time, and the second lady asked the old slave to accept it on her behalf. ”

The more Qin's mother spoke, the happier she became, as if she had met some happy event.

But Su Xue's eyebrows twisted slightly, these two wives, can't they have a day of peace? Even dodging and rushing to avoid the chaos did not forget to keep an eye on the wind and grass in this house, and he was really an idle master.

Mother Qin had a smile on her face, but Su Xue's eyebrows sank, and her tone was reproachful: "How does Mother Qin serve her master?" These little things of sesame mung beans have to alarm the mother, can't the mother be allowed to give birth in the room? ”

Mother Qin's face stiffened when she heard Su Xue's unkind tone, and she said, "The old slave should die, the third lady taught me a lesson." It's just that...... It's just that this matter is related to the third lady, and the second lady can't do it if she doesn't worry about it......"

As he spoke, he looked at the old lady with an aggrieved face, and then said: "The letter was sent by the Shen family, and the second son of Shen set off from Beijing to Jizhou this morning, and specially sent the little boy to send a letter over, inviting the third lady to go to the Crane Pavilion in the east of the city tomorrow to enjoy the plum blossoms!" ”

When the old lady heard this, she also said happily: "This Shen family is also interested in our Sister Xue!" ”

"Isn't it?" Mother Qin's smile deepened, "After this winter, the plum blossoms in the Crane Pavilion in the east of our Jizhou City will bloom the earliest, and the second son of Shen has the intention to invite the third lady to enjoy the plum blossoms, and he is worried that the third miss will freeze in the deep winter in the future, so he specially arranged to go to the Crane Pavilion." It can be seen that this second son of Shen is also well-intentioned. ”

Mother Qin was still sparing no effort to praise Shen Yifeng, but Su Xue was already so shocked that her whole body stiffened.

Diligent......

Shen Ergongzi wanted to harm her, naturally with good intentions!

What is the crane pavilion to enjoy the plum blossoms...... She can't go, if she goes, she will die!

This was the first thought that popped into Su Xue's mind.

"Grandmother! Su Xue didn't want to go. She suppressed the panic in her heart and cast a plea glance at the old lady for help.

The old lady was still listening to Mother Qin's babbling about the goodness of Shen's second son, but when she suddenly heard Su Xue's shout, she turned her face and was stunned.

Su Xue's face turned pale, her lips trembled slightly, and she continued: "This Second Prince Shen's arrangement is inevitably too hasty, since he is coming, why don't you tell me a few days in advance?" ”

Su Xue deliberately brought anger, wanting to excuse herself by taking advantage of Shen Ergongzi's inconsiderate consideration.

After hearing this, the old lady laughed instead, pointed to Su Xue's angry face, and said: "Look, before you entered the door, you were thinking about making things difficult for people everywhere, and in the past, I was worried that you would be wronged after marrying, but now it seems that only the Shen family can tolerate you everywhere!" ”

Although the old lady said the words of blame, there was no anger on her face, but she felt a little proud that Su Xue could suppress the Shen family.

After all, the Shen family is no longer the same as in the past, and the second son of Shen is just a concubine, so in front of the daughter of the Jiang family, he should naturally be inferior.

But Su Xue was not proud at all, looked at the old lady anxiously, and said, "Grandmother, Su Xue really doesn't want to go." It's cold and windy outside, and it's freezing in vain when you go out, so it's better to stay in the room to read and practice calligraphy. A while ago, my father and mother sent so many books, and Su Xue hasn't finished reading them yet. ”

The old lady frowned: "Those books can be read in the future, which one is more important than this matter?" Sister Xue'er, don't be petty, the son of the Shen family came all the way from Beijing and invited you to go out to enjoy the plum blossoms, isn't this obviously inviting you to see each other? You don't have to be nervous, you've all met, and it's just a formality. After seeing each other tomorrow, the Shen family will have to invite the matchmaker warlock to come over and get married, Sister Xue, you have to stay in the house and don't go out to show your face again, and when these three books and six ceremonies are over, it will not be the daughter of the Jiang family, but the daughter-in-law of the Shen family. ”

The old lady spoke smoothly, and Su Xue was frightened when she heard it.

In a daze, Qin's mother walked up to Su Xue and said with a smile: "The second wife and the second master are both waiting in the room, waiting for the third lady to come over, Xu has something to say in person." ”

Su Xue looked at the old lady anxiously and muttered, "Grandmother, but ......"

The old lady didn't allow her to talk more, and waved her hand to urge: "Your father is waiting, hurry over." ”

After calculating it, in the end, it was Shen Ergongzi who took the lead, Su Xue sighed secretly, now the second master is already waiting, and no matter how much he talks to the old lady, it will be useless.

So he got up and bowed, and left the room.

The second wife couldn't go out, so she asked Qin's mother to call Su Xue over, and Su Xue stepped on the cold and hard bluestone floor tiles uneasily, and walked through the porch to that side.

In the blurry night in front of her, Shen Ergongzi's cold and dark eyes seemed to appear, and she clenched her slightly trembling hands.

When she opened the curtain and entered the house, a burst of warmth came up, but it couldn't dispel the chill in her heart.

There was a three-leaf Nanmu carved silk glass screen in the middle of the house, Su Xue stopped outside the screen, and the second master and the second wife heard the sound and walked out of the screen.

I haven't seen the second wife for a few days, and she has grown ruddy and radiant. He was wearing a blue lotus-colored gray squirrel skin jacket, and he was holding a small hand stove inlaid with red jade in his hand.

Seeing Su Xue coming, he smiled kindly, and hurriedly stepped forward to stuff the hand stove into Su Xue's hand, and didn't forget to hold her hand and ask if it was cold outside.

Su Xueqiang took it with a smile, and suddenly remembered that when she fell into the water and pretended to be unconscious, the second wife also kindly ordered the maid to stuff a very hot soup woman into her bed.

She squirmed carefully in the bed for a long time before kicking the soup woman away, otherwise her feet would have been scalded and blistered.

At the moment, the temperature of this hand stove is just right, but Su Xue doesn't feel the slightest warmth.

The second wife pretended to love her very much in front of the second master, and she had no choice but to respond: "Mother is worried, and her daughter has come all the way, but it is not cold." ”

The second wife nodded with a smile, and was about to say something, when Su Xue's gaze had already passed over her and looked at the second master.

"The father asked his daughter to come over, but he wants to explain that the Sunrise Mansion should make an appointment with Shen Ergongzi?"

The second master nodded, thought for a while, and said, "Actually, Master Shen has asked many times, and there were too many things in the house some time ago, so I didn't care about it." Since the second son of Shen has already come to Jizhou, then you can pick up and go to Dongcheng tomorrow. ”

"Father, but my daughter doesn't think it's suitable." Su Xue took a step forward, her voice already calm.

When the second master heard this, he frowned and asked, "Then let's talk about it, what's not suitable?" ”

Su Xue bowed slightly, and replied: "Although my daughter and Shen Ergongzi have already met, after all, Shen Ergongzi was officially invited, and if my daughter goes alone, I am afraid it will be inappropriate." In the past, the two sisters were accompanied by an aunt and a daughter, so the daughter also hoped that someone would accompany her. ”

When the second old man heard this, his face relaxed, and he said: "That's natural, bring a few more maids and servants to follow, and you can take a sedan chair and a carriage." ”

Su Xue raised her head coldly, glanced at the second wife quickly, and said: "Grandmother Fang Cai said that this response to the invitation to appreciate Mei is to look at the second son of Shen, so as to give an explanation to the two families, the Shen family still values it so much, how can a few maids and servants on the Jiang Mansion deal with it?" But now the mother can't go out of the house, the eldest aunt has returned to her parents' house, and the grandmother is not in good health, so she can't accompany her daughter. If the daughter only brought a group of maids and servants over and let outsiders know, maybe she would think that her daughter was not treated by her mother at home. ”

As he spoke, he glanced at the second wife. (To be continued......)
