Chapter 14: The plan fell through
The carriage arrived at the General's Mansion, and after receiving the news that Fu Rin had an accident, the entire General's Mansion was in chaos.
Several minions carried Fu Rin out of the carriage and sent him to Fu Rin's room, blocking the worried Xia Chutao from the door, saying that it was inconvenient for the female dependents.
At the beginning of summer, Tao could only wait outside, but she waited for the grandmother next to the old lady.
"Hello, Mama." In the end, the people around the old lady are also respected in the house. At the beginning of summer, Tao bowed in a proper manner, which was quite generous.
"Xia Xiaoniang came back with the general, and the old lady had something to ask Xia Xiaoniang." Mama got straight to the point and said her intention directly, but her eyes were treacherous.
"Yes." Xia Chutao nodded in agreement.
"Little Peach, this trip is quite dangerous."
"I think this grandmother has a ghost."
The barrage was speculating about the purpose of the old lady inviting Xia Chutao to come over at this time, but Xia Chutao had a certain amount of preparation in her heart.
Since the old lady is invited, it must be all about Fu Rin.
Xia Chutao guessed that the old lady would probably blame herself for following Fu Rin but not taking care of Fu Rin, Xia Chutao thought to herself that this should be able to stage an annual drama where her mother drove her out, and Xia Da Bailian must give full play to her white lotus attributes.
Thinking about it, Xia Chutao obediently followed behind her grandmother through the hall and corridor to Shou'an Hall.
The old lady was still sitting on top of the Shou'an Hall, and when she saw Xia Chutao coming in, she spoke directly.
"Get on your knees."
At the beginning of Xia, sadness immediately appeared on Tao's face, "Plop-" knelt down as soon as he said it, and the barrage gasped, and it hurt just by listening to it.
"Old lady, it's me who didn't take good care of the general, so that the general had such an accident." Before the old lady could speak, Xia Chutao took out her silk handkerchief and dipped it in the corner of her eyes, and cried loudly.
Xia Chutao said what is this called, preemptively.
When the old lady heard Xia Chutao say this, her brows, which were as pale as frost flowers, sparsely sparsed, and asked. "Oh? Do you know what I have to ask you? ”
"The concubine naturally knows." At the beginning of Xia, Tao was still frowning, looking pitiful, and he was still sobbing with anger when he spoke. "The general also fainted on the carriage back for some reason, and the matter is so big that the concubine knows that it was her own negligence."
"Now that something like this has happened to the general, I remember that the old lady was merciful and left me in the General's Mansion at the beginning, so it seems that she has disappointed the old lady's kindness, and the concubine is really shameless to stay in the General's Mansion."
Saying that, Xia Chutao cried louder, and the mourning in his tone was all moved.
So, you're trying to get me out of the General's Mansion? The old lady raised her eyebrows, in a word.
Xia Chutao just covered her nose and cried, her eyes glanced at the old woman from time to time, and she didn't speak.
"Not necessarily." The old lady spoke in a flat tone, turned around and picked up a cup of tea, brushed away the tea foam, and lowered her head to blow it.
"I called you here to ask what's going on, and now that I know, you can retreat." The old lady waved her hand, calming down.
"As for the general's condition, you don't have to worry, I'll call someone to come and heal me."
"Hahahaha, this old lady is a bit powerful."
"Little Peach, this is the fierce enemy."
"Yes, it's all up to the old lady." Xia Chumo replied obediently.
Xia Chutao failed to fulfill her wish, bit her lip and stood up, but she still had a sad look on her face, and she could only retreat under the gaze of the old lady.
