Chapter 164: Disappointment

"Grandmother..."

Xie Qingyang's lips moved, and his voice was like a mosquito.

When Mrs. Xie staggered past him, she stopped at her feet.

Xie Qingyang's heart trembled, and when he saw that Old Madam Xie took the whip on the table and wrapped it in her hand, when her eyes swept over, she subconsciously clenched her teeth and closed her eyes, and lowered her head vigorously, just waiting for the whip to come.

But who knew that he waited for a long time and there was no pain, but only the extremely cold voice of Old Madam Xie came not far away.

"Su Ruan, you come in with me."

Su Ruan hurriedly stepped forward and followed Old Madam Xie into the inner room, while Xie Yuan also followed the two of them.

The footsteps faded away until they disappeared.

Xie Qingyang opened one eye tremblingly, and saw that it was empty.

Without Old Madam Xie, without Xie Yuan, even Su Ruan was gone.

Xie Qingyang was a little stunned for a while, and he didn't feel a little happy that he hadn't been beaten, but he was a little overwhelmed.

……

After Mrs. Xie led Su Ruan into the inner room, she walked to the side and sat down, and said in a deep voice: "Kneel!" ”

Su Ruan's knees weakened, and he knelt on the ground with a "bang".

Old Madam Xie looked at her: "Do you know the mistake?" ”

Su Ruan pursed her lips and didn't speak.

Seeing that Old Madam Xie was angry, Xie Yuan hurriedly said:

"Mother, don't blame Ruan Ruan for this incident, it was indeed wrong for her to disguise herself as a man to go to the cockfighting platform, but she also went because she was afraid that Xiaoliu would cause trouble."

"And if she hadn't found out in advance that the Cao family was doing tricks on cockfighting, and stopped Xiao Liu, and didn't let him make those outrageous bets, I don't know how much trouble Xiao Liu would have caused."

"Ruan Ruan is also kind, she didn't expect things to turn out like this......"

"Shut up!"

Old Madam Xie turned her head and shouted, "You think everyone is as stupid as you?" Long hands and feet but not brains? She didn't expect that? I see she thinks of everything! ”

Xie Yuan shut up when he was scolded.

Old Madam Xie looked at Su Ruan and said in a deep voice: "Come on, did you go to the cockfighting platform for Xiaoliu?" ”

Su Ruan lowered his eyes: "Yes." ”

Old Madam Xie gritted her teeth: "Then what about going to Cao's house later?" ”

Su Ruan was silent.

When Mrs. Xie saw her like this, she immediately said angrily: "Since you already knew that the Cao family had done something in cockfighting, why did you have to make things out of control and come forward to expose them?" ”

"The ups and downs you made over there in Juxuan Tower forced that kid from the Cao family to Liangshan step by step."

"You calculated the reactions of the people around you, connived at Cao Yu to press forward step by step, let him fall into the hands of others with an arrogant attitude, let the Cao family be accused and even exposed, and everyone knew about the Cao family's calculations and the Xie family."

"You have calculated that Cao Yu's temperament is difficult to take on the big responsibility, and he will definitely run away with a few words."

"You deliberately brought the sons of the Zhao family and the Bai family to make a fuss in front of the Cao family with you, and you are sure that the old lady of the Qi family and Shen Fengnian will never let a few of you go on an adventure, even if you don't send someone to follow, you will definitely report to the mansion."

"You even calculated my temperament, calculated my reaction after I went, and calculated that even if I knew that these were your calculations, I would still protect you and the Cao family as enemies......"

As Mrs. Xie spoke, she slapped the table beside her violently, and in anger, the force in her hand directly smashed the corner of the table.

"Su Ruan, you really have no last resort."

"Am I going to compliment you on being so smart?!"

Old Madam Xie was so angry that her chest rose and fell, and her eyes seemed to be burning.

Xie Yuan's eyes widened, looked at Su Ruan who was kneeling on the ground, and exclaimed, "Ruan Ruan, what your grandmother said is true?" ”

"Is there any fake?"

Old Madam Xie looked at Su Ruan, who was kneeling on the ground with her back straight, "Why do you think she took someone to Cao's house to make trouble?" How do you think the Zhao family and the Bai family were involved? Why do you think the Cao family is making such a big fuss? ”

"If it weren't for her pushing behind her, if she hadn't calculated the overall situation and used everyone, how could today's things be where they are now."

When Old Madam Xie looked at Su Ruan, there was a look of disappointment in her eyes.

"Ruan Ruan, why are you doing this?"

Su Ruan lowered her eyes for a long time before she whispered, "Does grandmother think I did something wrong?" ”

She raised her eyes to look at Old Madam Xie.

"The Cao family wants to calculate the Xuanping Hou Mansion, and they want to calculate the Hou Ye, this is not the first time they have used Xie Qingyang."

"Last time, they bribed the subordinates in the mansion and provoked Xie Qingyang to oppose me, not only smashed my father's tablet, lured me to make a big fuss about the wedding banquet, and even lost two lives in the mansion."

"I didn't want to investigate it at the time, not because I didn't care about being cheated like this, but because I had no evidence, and because once what Xie Qingyang did got out, his reputation would be ruined, and it would be impossible for him to pursue a career in the future."

"So I put up with it, I don't want to look into it, let everything end here."

"But this time, they attacked Xie Qingyang again, tricked him into gambling and fighting, and even wanted to use Xie Qingyang to harm the Xuanping Marquis Mansion."

Su Ruan raised her eyes to look at Old Madam Xie when she spoke, her eyes were less light and agile, but a little more ruthless that did not match her age.

"Everyone in this world calculates, either I count people, or people count me."

"I don't want to take the initiative to embarrass others, but I also don't want to sit back and wait for others to come and kill me again and again, and hurt those I care about with those unsightly means."

Her voice was cold, and even when she faced the angry Old Madam Xie, she didn't back down at all.

"Since they dare to calculate Xie Qingyang and Xuanping Houfu, then why can't I calculate them? Didn't my grandmother just say that when the two armies are fighting, the one who moves is the first, the first to strike is the strongest, and the second to suffer? ”

"It was they who did it before, and now they are calculated by me, and that is also their means."

"How could I ever be wrong?"

Old Madam Xie's eyes widened slightly in shock at Su Ruan's words.

She has seen Su Ruan's countless appearances, well-behaved, delicate, sensible, forbearing, and even her previous sharp appearance of wanting to stab everyone, but now she is so cold and ruthless, but this is the first time she has seen it.

She opened her mouth slightly, and it took her half a moment to come back to her senses.

She looked at Su Ruan, who was kneeling on the ground with her back straight, refusing to avoid it at all, and said slowly after a while:

"Ruan Ruan, in your eyes, can you calculate anything?"

Su Ruan looked at Old Madam Xie and was slightly stunned.

"The three children of the Zhao family are very close to you, they also protected you everywhere in front of the Cao family before, Old Man Qi helped you in the cockfighting platform, and Shen Fengnian and you are just the first time they have met."

"But these people, no matter which one they are, you can use calculations."
