Old Madam Xue frowned slightly, and said to Mama Qiu, "You go and stop the second master, tell him, I will ask clearly what should be asked, and let him wait for me, I am old, I am still this impatient, and I have no scruples." ”

"Grandmother, I" Xue Ling said slowly.

Old Madam Xue waved her hand and sent away all the girls, only Jiang Yue was left, and then she lowered her voice, "Ah Ling, tell grandmother, where did you put the sunken wooden box?" ”

Xue Ling couldn't help but move back.

Seeing this, Jiang Yue sat next to him, "Ah Ling, tell the truth, the sky is falling, and Ah Niang is supporting you." ”

Xue Ling looked at her grandmother and mother, and spit out softly, "Grandmother and mother can't support such a big thing." ”

Old Madam Xue's heart finally sank to the bottom, "How come?" ”

Because of the high fever, Xue Ling opened his mouth, his throat was sore, and his voice seemed to have changed a person, "Grandmother, the box was handed over to me by my father himself, I naturally carried it with me, I really didn't expect it to catch fire, if I wanted to get it, I would have handed over the box to my grandmother at that time, and this situation would not have occurred today, this matter is very important, my granddaughter is willing to be disposed of by the elders of the clan, I only hope that my grandmother can protect my mother and sister." ”

When Mrs. Xue heard this, although she had already guessed it in her heart, she was still lucky in the end, and now that she heard what Xue Ling said, she was still hit in the end.

She married into the Xue family and only gave birth to a son and a daughter, and now that her son is gone, only these two granddaughters are the blood of her relatives, but the inheritance of the Xue family also makes her worried, and her heart turns a thousand times.

Old Madam Xue tried her best to stabilize her mind, looked at Xue Ling's right hand, and asked in a trembling voice, "Did you get burned in order to grab that sunken wooden box?" ”

Xue Ling said, "Grandmother, things are in people, things are dead, and things are dead, which is my trust to my father and the Xue family." ”

Jiang Yue didn't care about the inheritance of the Xue family, so she didn't have Mrs. Xue's entanglement, "Mother-in-law, today's fire is strange, if it weren't for this fire, this sunken wooden box would never be burned, if you are held responsible, you can't blame Ah Ling anyway, if your mother-in-law lets the elders of the clan deal with Ah Ling, even after her husband's death, she will not be able to turn a blind eye." ”

Old Lady Xue's heart was stunned.

It's just that such a fluttering sentence exploded in Old Lady Xue's mind like a thunderclap, and she muttered, "You're right, it's not Ah Ling's fault." ”

After Jiang Yue finished speaking, but there was no silence, when it came to Xue Ling, Jiang Yue would not flinch, "Mother-in-law, I know that I am not responsible as the daughter-in-law of the Xue family, but Ah Ling is the daughter of the Xue family, the bloodline of the mother-in-law, and the orphan of the husband, the husband is just a little bit of blood, Yan'er has been weak since she was a child, only A Ling, and the mother-in-law doesn't look at anything else, just say this, but also protect A Ling, the patriarch in the clan will naturally not value me as a pair of girls, but mother-in-law, this is your own granddaughter, Do you allow them to trample on my orphans and widows like this? ”

Old Lady Xue's eyes were covered with tears, she gently held Xue Ling's hand, for a long time, just let out a long sigh, and said to Jiang Yue, "You give Ah Ling medicine first, this matter is very important, and it is no longer up to me to call the shots, but you can rest assured, if you want to be carefully held accountable, no one can escape, and it will never fall on Ah Ling alone." ”

When Mrs. Xue said the last sentence, she already had a hint of ruthlessness, "It's getting late today, I'll go to meet the two Jihong brothers first, such a big event, I'm afraid that tomorrow I am afraid that the ancestral hall will be opened, you take good care of Ah Ling, and she will have to participate tomorrow." ”

Xue Ling raised her head, her grandmother was so close to her, she still remembered her grandmother's worried look before she fell asleep.

Xue Ling looked at the figure of her grandmother turning around, and finally felt a little guilty in her heart.

The past has vanished at this moment.

She finally used a trick on her grandmother.

Grandmother is so transparent, grandmother must be able to guess the truth in this fire, and she used a strategy to analyze everything thoroughly, and put it in front of her grandmother little by little, such as the buckle in the second room, such as Mother Xu's fire, such as the incense of the third aunt.

A lot of things, guessed, are still different from what they really see.

Seeing it for yourself, it's more intuitive.

Seeing the ruthlessness of the second and third uncles and the ugliness of the clan for profit, the grandmother would only pity her even more, and then spare no effort to stand by her side.

Xue Ling looked at her grandmother's haggard figure, and a complex emotion was intertwined in her heart.

There is guilt, but no regrets.

Since her rebirth, every step seems to have gone smoothly, but she knows that as long as she becomes a little soft-hearted, she will lose completely again.

Jiang Yue got up to send him off.

Old Mrs. Xue turned her head, her eyes fell on Xue Ling's body, and she stepped on the little person softly, hanging her head and not seeing clearly.

Old Madam Xue said to Jiang Yue, "Take good care of her, don't fall into the root of the disease." ”

Jiang Yue nodded, "Thank you, mother-in-law." ”

Jiang Yue sent Mrs. Xue away, and then said to Sizhu Siyu, "You two are guarding the door." ”

And then he came over.

Picked up the porridge on the table and sat on the edge of the collapse.

Xue Ling raised her head, her expression had recovered as before, and she called out to Ah Niang.

Her mother was too shrewd, and she knew she would not be able to hide it from her.

However, her father's funeral was over, and her mother was still standing in front of her, instead of lying in a cold coffin with her father, and this alone was worth it no matter how much it cost her.

Her first step was already on the right track.

And every next step, she has already planned.

"Auntie." Xue Ling saw that her mother didn't speak, and called again.

Jiang Yue glanced at her daughter, her eyes were helpless, she didn't speak, she just picked up the porridge and fed it to Xue Ling spoonful.

"A-Niang, I'll do it myself."

Xue Ling said, his right hand moved instinctively, the pain spread little by little, ten fingers connected to the heart, Xue Ling clenched his teeth tightly, and did not make a sound.

Jiang Yue saw a little bead of sweat on Xue Ling's forehead, but he didn't even snort, and he was distressed, and said, "Ah Ling was most afraid of pain in the past, why didn't she even snort today?" ”

Xue Ling pulled a smile, extremely ugly.

The daughter's family is delicate and expensive, and a few of them are not afraid of pain.

In the past, she was as delicate as a girl in an ordinary boudoir, afraid of pain, and coquettish.

Her parents passed away one after another, and she grew up quickly, although she was protected by her grandmother in the Xue family, it was still far from enough after all, and more often, it became a habit to endure it.

At this time, in the face of her mother's inquiry, she opened her mouth and was about to speak.

Jiang Yue had already said softly, "With A-Niang here, you don't have to endure it like this, if it hurts, just cry." ”
