She instinctively took a step back and widened the distance between the two, "Mr. Zeng came just in time. ”

This subtle movement fell into Zeng Yi's eyes, and his eyelashes trembled.

He said, "I'm sorry for the trouble. ”

When Mrs. Zeng saw Zeng Yi, she had already begun to shout, "You came just in time, don't you just hate us for driving your mother and son out of the Zeng family in the first place, why did you take revenge on your brother like this, and later after your mother died, didn't I take you into the door?" ”

This old lady was babbling about the past.

Xue Ling couldn't help but raise her head and glance at Zeng Yi, the sun was shining on Zeng Yi's face, and she couldn't see his expression clearly at such a glance.

Not far away, Xue Ling could feel Zeng Yi's slightly frowning breath.

Her heart suddenly softened a little, and sure enough, every family had a difficult scripture.

She never tried to get to know him, and it turned out that the Zeng family's family affairs were more complicated than she imagined.

Xue Ling looked at Zeng Yi, the cold aura that emerged because of the old lady Zeng's nonsense subsided a lot, and his voice became softened, "Mr. Lao Zeng invited this old lady out, since it involves the Zeng family's family affairs, it is not convenient for outsiders to be involved." ”

When the woman saw Zeng Yi, she didn't have a good temper towards Xue Ling, and still kept yelling, "Now that you are following the emperor's eldest grandson, you don't take our Zeng family in your eyes, back then, your mother passed away early, and I didn't raise you so big." Have you forgotten the days when you were in trouble? ”

Xue Ling couldn't help frowning, looking at this woman's appearance, she was estimated to be a powerful character when she was young, and she was also like this in front of outsiders.

Chang Shan couldn't listen to it, and blurted out, "Nonsense, when did you raise our son?" At that time, our son-in-law was in danger, what did you do? Our son is the eldest son of the lineage, just because the master is gone, the whole family falls into your hands, and he still can't tolerate him, in front of so many people, less lying, people are doing it, the sky is watching, beware of retribution. ”

Xue Ling had already turned her body sideways, and these words inadvertently came into her ears.

For some reason, my heart suddenly tugged.

I feel a little sympathetic.

"Changshan, there is no need to mention the past."

Zeng Yi opened his mouth indifferently, his voice was unwavering, and he couldn't hear any emotion.

Zeng Yi opened his mouth, Chang Shan was full of grievances, so he had to stop his mouth alive.

Zeng Yi said to Mrs. Zeng, "The girl of the Xue family was invited by the court, how important is the rain prayer ceremony, it is for the benefit of the people of the North, the eldest brother deliberately sabotaged and had bad intentions, we are not only for Miss Xue to give an explanation, but also to the people of the Northland, this is justified." ”

He paused and continued, "Wrong, wrong, and I don't think there's anything wrong with me. You have ill intentions and interfere with the affairs of the court, and now according to the rules, you are only punished with the crime of exile, which can be regarded as an open net. ”

He tilted his head slightly, and said to the few officials who followed outside the door, "Invite this old lady out." Whoever is put in in the future will be punished for the same crime. ”

Several officials stepped forward and forcibly pulled Mrs. Zeng out.

Mrs. Zeng saw that there was no turnaround, so she scolded, "You are a personal vendetta of the Gazette, what you say is high-sounding, but it is just a personal vendetta in the name of the Communiqué, we owe your mother and son at the beginning, but the family is close to each other, why not hold a grudge until now, the wood has roots, the water has a source, don't forget that what you keep on your body is the blood of the Zeng family, the matter of Chen Guzi's rotten sesame seeds, why not kill the Zeng family, the emperor's eldest grandson has already said, the execution power of this matter is with you." ”

Zeng Yi clenched his fist gently, "The old lady won't know, I have a nickname called Mr. Iron Blood, the law is true, the crime is not as good as a child, Zeng Xuan has reached the age of ten, the old lady is so unreasonable again, don't blame me for being ruthless." ”

Mrs. Zeng's face changed, she didn't dare to say a word more, and she was dragged away unwillingly.

After the woman left, the courtyard fell silent again.

Zeng Yi no longer hesitated, got up and withdrew, "Disturbed." ”

Xue Ling looked at him, "Thank you, Mr. Zeng." ”

A smile appeared on Zeng Yi's lips, but this smile was very bitter, "You're welcome." She's right, I'm a communiqué for personal vendettas, but I'm just borrowing your name. ”

As he spoke, he had withdrawn.

Xue Ling looked at Zeng Yiyuan's back, and for the first time in his heart, he had some different feelings.

Because the prayer for rain has ended, Xue Ling will be extremely comfortable in the next few days.

I was idle, so I went to the street with Wang.

The people in the city are very friendly to Xue Ling, such a gaze, Xue Ling is very familiar, but the merits and disgraces, right and wrong, she has seen it very thoroughly, neither because of the praise of others and joy, let alone because of the accusations of others and blamed herself.

I went a little late on this day, and I had dinner with Wang, and when I returned to the mansion, it was already sunset.

Nangong Sheng has been busy digging ditches to divert water these days.

Sizhu walked in, "Girl, when I went to the kitchen to stew soup, I saw the little guy next to Mr. Zeng decocting medicine. I heard that Mr. Tsang was injured. ”

Xue Ling remembered that day, he had been in the rain with himself for so long.

I drank a decoction to keep out the cold in advance, and prepared an extra decoction, although I was physically exhausted and fainted, but I didn't get cold.

He has been resting for the past few days, and Zeng Yi has been busy with affairs, and he has been digging ditches in the past two days.

I'm afraid that the iron body can't stand it.

"Mr. Zeng went to the ditch for a few more days, and today for some reason, his leg and foot were injured, and he came back at noon."

At noon, Xue Ling was in the mansion, but he had never heard of it.

Wang said, "In this way, my husband went out of the room at that time, and I asked him what he was going to do, but my husband didn't answer. ”

Xue Ling thought for a moment and said, "With my cousin taking care of me, don't worry." ”

Sizhu wanted to speak and stopped.

I opened my mouth a few times, but I still didn't dare to speak.

Xue Ling was holding her mother's book in her hand, but after a long time, she didn't turn a single page.

Xue Ling's mind remembered bits and pieces from the first acquaintance.

Every time, he was helping her.

She couldn't tell what he meant, but at first, she could probably tell that he didn't mean it.

Xue Ling always felt a little messed up in her heart, sighed softly, and had some intention of compromising with herself, she put down the book in her hand, "Sizhu, how is Mr. Zeng today?" ”

Sizhu looked at Xue Ling in disbelief, and then said, "Mr. Zeng has some injuries to his legs, he has some typhoid fever and external injuries, and now he is not very good." ”
