Chapter 50: Killing Two Birds with One Stone

Since Aunt Su woke up and found that her child was gone, she has been depressed, and her mental condition has weakened all of a sudden. In order to ensure her health, Xiao Yiran and Xiao Yiwan had to visit her from time to time in the next few days.

On this day, after Xiao Yiran came out of Aunt Su's place, he was suddenly stopped near the garden lake: "Third sister! Xiao Zijun sat in the gazebo, and as soon as he saw her, he got up and walked towards her. The third sister just came back from Aunt Su, right? ”

"Yes, what is the fourth brother sitting here for?" Xiao Yiran smiled quietly.

"Nothing, just thinking about something. It's the third sister, who has to go to Aunt Su to take care of her every day, she must be very tired, right? Xiao Zijun smiled gently and innocently.

Xiao Yiran looked at the fourth brother in front of him and found that he and Xiao Zhiyuan looked five or six points similar, and he always had a kind smile on his face, but this smile was a little uncomfortable no matter how he looked at it.

"It's just to be relieved, what's so tiring." Xiao Yiran said.

"That's right." Xiao Zijun nodded, he suddenly took two steps closer, and the whole person almost stuck to her ear and said, "You said that Aunt Su is not good at eating, but she wants to eat hawthorn." I bought the hawthorn from outside the house, and now that she has miscarried, I am very uneasy! ”

Xiao Yiran's eyes suddenly sharpened, she stared sideways at Xiao Zijun and said firmly: "Aunt Su's miscarriage was really done by you behind your back." ”

"Oops! Third sister, you can't say that! Xiao Zijun immediately took a few steps back, "I didn't expect that Eighth Sister would really send that hawthorn to Aunt Su!" Then again......" His voice suddenly raised: "Didn't you tell me about Aunt Su's pregnancy?" ”

"What!" Xiao Yiran was stunned, not understanding what Xiao Zijun meant, but then a soft sound came from behind the flowers not far away, which made her heart suddenly understand. Seeing that the familiar corner of the clothes hurriedly disappeared behind the flowers, Xiao Yiran said coldly: "What does this mean, fourth brother?" ”

Xiao Zijun retracted his gaze and said with a triumphant smile: "It's unfortunate! The eighth sister heard it. Third sister, I think you should be more concerned about what she will think now, right? The corners of his eyebrows and eyes were suddenly full of malice: "Now in the eighth sister's heart, you and I have become the murderers of her own brother." I didn't expect that the people who worked so hard to help would hate themselves. ”

This Xiao Zijun is really vicious! Xiao Yiran's heart was cold, she stared at him expressionlessly, watching him show a more and more smug smile, and suddenly smiled.

"What are you laughing at!" The curvature of the corners of Xiao Zijun's mouth instantly froze at the corners of his mouth, and a trace of anger crossed his face, but then there was vigilance. Bai Huaping and Xiao Yixian both told her that their third sister is very scheming, and they must not take her lightly.

"The fourth brother went to such great lengths just to make the eighth sister hate me?" Xiao Yiran asked.

"Of course not!" Xiao Zijun raised his eyebrows: "Although the primary purpose is this, it is also one of my goals to take the opportunity to get rid of the cheap seed in Aunt Su's belly." ”

"It turned out to kill two birds with one stone!" Xiao Yiran nodded and sighed, she thought that Xiao Zijun didn't want the child in Aunt Su's womb to become a hidden danger after being born and sharing power with them, but she didn't expect that this matter was mainly to make enemies for her. Thinking of this, Xiao Yiran couldn't help but sigh, Xiao Zijun and they didn't think too much of her.

"That's right!" Xiao Zijun raised his chin slightly.

Xiao Yiran sighed and said, "It's a pity, it's nothing to me. ”

"Nothing?" Xiao Zijun's expression stiffened slightly: "Aren't you disappointed and afraid?" ”

"Afraid of what?" Xiao Yiran smiled slightly: "There are more people who hate me, such as you, the fourth brother." Even so, do I have to live a life of fear and sullenness every day? ”

In Xiao Zijun's increasingly gloomy expression, she walked past him and walked forward: "Instead of caring about my current mood, the fourth brother should think about how to let my mother and eldest sister come out quickly." ”

"You!" Xiao Zijun was angry, he suddenly turned around and stared at Xiao Yiran's back, but the other party didn't even look back.

"Xiao, yes, yes!" He slammed his fist on the tree trunk on the side, his eyes bloodshot: "I won't let you have a good time!" You wait for me! ”

After Xiao Yiran returned to Tingyu Pavilion, he saw Xianglan hurriedly pleading to her: "Third Miss, when you were away, the slave found a suspicious person outside. ”

Xiao Yiran asked, "Who do you recognize?" ”

"She said that she was Mrs. Chu's dowry maid, and she was also the former nurse of the third lady."

Chu Rou's dowry maid? Xiao Yiran pondered for a moment and ordered, "Bring her up!" ”

"Yes!"

After a while, sure enough, a few little maids came to Xiao Yiran with a mother-in-law.

The woman was about 50 years old, with a sallow face, rough skin, and her palms covered with dense calluses. As soon as she saw Xiao Yiran, she immediately knelt down, stared at her for a long time with tears in her eyes, and choked up: "Third Miss, Madam bless!" You're finally back! ”

"You are?" Xiao Yiran tilted his head and wondered.

"The old slave's surname is Sun, and he is the wife's dowry maid, and she is also the nurse who was responsible for taking care of the young lady before the lady's death." Mama Sun wiped her tears with her sleeve and hurriedly replied.

"It turned out to be Mama Sun! is also too young at the time, so many people can't remember things clearly, and please don't be surprised. Xiao Yiran said slightly apologetic.

Hearing this, a trace of disappointment flashed in Mama Sun's eyes, but she quickly cheered up and said, "No surprise! No wonders! It is already a blessing for the old slave to see the young lady again. Miss is now grown up, and she is still so beautiful, if Mrs. Quanxia knows, I don't know how happy I would be! As she spoke, her eyes were red again.

Xiao Yiran had dealings with all kinds of people from all walks of life in his previous life, so he had a bit of eyesight. Although it cannot be said to be 100% accurate, it is 99% correct. Therefore, she now looked at the grandmother in front of her and found that her every move did not seem to be fake, she was really sad for Chu Rou and happy for herself.

Xiao Yiran's eyes softened, and Xianglan asked her to sit down, and then asked softly, "What is the difficulty of that grandma coming today?" ”

"Nope! No! Grandma Sun waved her hand again and again, "The old slave came today to give the young lady something back." This thing has been kept by the old slave since the young lady left, and now that the young lady is older, it should be returned to the original owner. As she spoke, she took out a handkerchief from her arms and opened it, and inside was a jade pendant!

Grandma Sun put the jade pendant in Xiao Yiran's hand and said with a smile: "This is a token when the young lady and the fourth prince were engaged. When the young lady was sent out of the house, the old slave didn't have time to take a last look at the young lady, so this token was not taken away by you. Now that you are going to be in time, if you want to talk about marriage in the future, this jade pendant is indispensable. ”
