Xie Qingheng's words made Chen's heart slightly shocked.

After the news of the Cao family's affairs came back, she only thought that today's incident was caused by Su Ruan, just like the last time she made a fuss in the He family, but she didn't expect that the source was not Su Ruan.

Chen was a little flustered in an instant, and hurriedly looked up at Su Ruan, and saw her sitting there quietly, with no expression on her face when she looked up at her.

"Nguyen Nguyen, I'm ......"

Chan wanted to explain.

Su Ruan looked directly sideways.

Chen was at a loss for a moment, and his hand tightened tightly on Jinpa.

Seeing her like this, Xie Qingheng couldn't help but say: "Mother, Ruan Ruan is your child, you should know better than anyone else what her character is, how can you first determine that she is wrong without asking about it......

"Okay, Qingheng."

Seeing Xie Qingheng's dissatisfied look, Old Madam Xie stopped him with words, "She is your mother, how did you talk to her?" ”

Xie Qingheng pursed his lips tightly and stopped.

Only then did Old Madam Xie look at Chen and said, "Qing Heng also cares about Ruan Ruan, so he will lose his words for a while, don't worry about him." ”

Chen hurriedly said: "Mother, I won't, it's my fault." ”

Old Madam Xie waved her hand and interrupted her: "There's nothing wrong with it, I've already said before, I'll worry about Ruan Ruan's affairs, you can take care of yourself, as well as the affairs of Hou Ye and the second room." ”

"On the Cao family's side, Master Hou and I will deal with it and won't let Ruan Ruan cause any trouble."

Chen's face turned pale when he heard Old Madam Xie's words, is this something that Old Madam Xie dislikes her and shouldn't care about Su Ruan?

But she was just afraid that Su Ruan would cause trouble.

"Mother's ......"

Chan wanted to speak.

Mrs. Xie said:

"Okay, you were not in good health before, but Master Hou invited the imperial doctor to come and take a special trip to see it for you, and it took a few days to get better."

"It's not early outside, don't wait here, go back and rest quickly, lest you go back late later, and the road will be difficult to walk when you go back, and your body will freeze."

After Mrs. Xie finished speaking, she didn't give Chen a chance to speak at all, so she said:

"Mother Liu, send the second lady out, and by the way, tell the people around her, and let them take a closer look at the second lady's body."

"It's almost the New Year's Festival now, don't let her catch the cold again, and she won't be able to live in peace when the New Year comes."

Mother Liu hurriedly said: "The slave and maid understand, and the slave and maid will tell them." ”

Old Madam Xie never gave Chen a chance to speak, nor did she even listen to her explanation, she did not teach Chen a lesson, nor did she express dissatisfaction with her, but her posture of clearly sending off guests made Chen's face pale.

is different from the direct with Wang, sometimes the alienation that is too polite is even more unacceptable.

Chen looked up at Mrs. Xie: "Mother, I ......"

"Anything else?"

Old Madam Xie raised her eyebrows.

Chen's mouth opened for a long time, and he wanted to speak and stopped, but in the end he still didn't say anything, just pinched the handkerchief tightly and glanced at Su Ruan, and then his eyes reddened: "No, then I won't bother my mother." ”

Old Madam Xie smiled: "Well, go back, Mother Liu, send the second lady." ”

Mother Liu knew Old Madam Xie's temper, so she stepped forward directly and said with a smile: "Second Madam, the slave will send you out." ”

Chen glanced at Su Ruan again, and saw that she just lowered her eyes and didn't look at her, so she could only whisper: "Okay, thank you Mother Liu." ”

Mother Liu led Chen out, and after the warm curtain was lifted and fell, Chen's figure disappeared outside the door.

After disappearing from her, Mrs. Xie looked at Xie Qingheng and said: "You used to be the most polite, no matter what she did, she is your father's wife and your stepmother, and some words should not be said by you." ”

Xie Qingheng pursed his lips.

He knew what Old Madam Xie meant, and he knew how the Chen family couldn't speak for him.

But just now, Chen suddenly asked Su Ruan for his guilt, and he didn't even know the reason for the matter, and asked her to apologize, but he couldn't help it.

The Chen family may have wanted to protect Su Ruan, fearing that she would cause trouble and disgust Old Madam Dexie.

Even if he knew rationally that Chen didn't mean to harm Su Ruan, he still felt emotionally uncomfortable that Chen's behavior was uncomfortable, especially seeing Su Ruan's quiet appearance, which made Xie Qingheng feel a little distressed and wronged for her.

Xie Qingheng glanced at Su Ruan and said in a low voice, "I know grandmother, I won't be next time." ”

Old Mrs. Xie didn't intend to discipline him, but the Chen family was liked by Xie Yuan, and Xie Qingheng was Xie Yuan's eldest son, if there was a conflict between him and the Chen family, let Xie Yuan know that if he was dazzled by beauty again, it would make them dislike their father and son at that time.

Old Madam Xie turned her head and looked at Su Ruan: "Don't be sad, she has no intention of harming you." ”

Su Ruan tilted his head slightly when he heard this, pursed his lips and smiled: "I know." ”

Seeing the accustomed smile on her face, Old Madam Xie didn't know what to say, for fear of making Su Ruan sad, so she could only change the topic and say: "The medicinal oil I have here is our Xu family's unique secret recipe, which specializes in treating bruises and injuries, and is much better than those medicines next to it." ”

"When you go back later, let the girl in the room rub your legs for you, and besides, I saw that there was blood on your body before, but where else did it hurt?"

Su Ruan shook his head: "No, the blood is not my own, it was smeared in the cockfighting ring." ”

Old Madam Xie laughed when she heard this: "You are very clever in your tricks. ”

"Thank you to the old man of the Qi family for today's matter, if he hadn't reported the news, I wouldn't have been able to rush over, you can go to the Qi family with me and thank the old man of the Qi family."

When Su Ruan heard that he was going to Qi's house, he was stunned.

She hurriedly said, "Grandmother, we don't have to go to Qi's house." ”

Seeing that Old Madam Xie looked at her with some puzzlement, Su Ruan hurriedly said:

"Today's matter is so big, the Cao family and the eldest prince haven't been solved yet, I'm afraid they are all staring at us at this time."

"Old Man Qi is kind-hearted, so he will help ventilate the news, but if we go to the door to thank you in person, won't it make the people of the Cao family think that the Qi family and us are together? I heard that the eldest prince is narrow-minded, and he is a little eager to take revenge, if he angers the Qi family at that time, then we will not thank you, but take revenge. ”

Old Madam Xie listened to Su Ruan's words, and after thinking about it, there was still some truth.

The Cao family just made a fuss, and at this juncture, it's better not to involve the Qi family.

Mrs. Xie said: "You are right, then I won't go to the Qi family, and I will ask Ming'er to send a generous gift to the Qi family, and I will have the opportunity to thank them in person in the future." ”
