Chapter XVIII: Disposition

And in the face of the group of "thugs" who were already standing in line on both sides of her body and Ning Jinxiu, who was presiding over all this, she instinctively moved her body back, and she used her eyes to accuse and ask for help: "Don't, don't ......"

"Hahaha, this is the end of your fight with your aunt and grandmother!" Ning Jinxiu laughed.

"That's it, don't pee and take care of yourself, what qualifications do you have to be on an equal footing with our young grandmother?" Cui Hong added oil and vinegar to the side to please her master.

"Alright, don't delay any longer, let's do it." Ning Jinxiu instructed the men.

The men slowly raised their sticks......

Xiang Wanqing closed her eyes in despair.

At this moment, I suddenly heard a loud shout coming from a distance: "Stop! Stop it! ”

The sticks stopped in mid-air, and everyone looked in one direction.

I saw Huo Yujue sweating profusely and rushing all the way......

"What are you going to do? It's unreasonable, it's too presumptuous! Huo Yujue roared angrily, he was already out of breath, but his voice was still sonorous.

As soon as the male and Cui Hong immediately knelt down, their heads bowed and they didn't dare to speak.

Ning Jinxiu's eyebrows and eyes were hideous, she never thought that it would be done soon, but she made a trip to bite the gold halfway, and it was Huo Yujue who spoiled her good thing!

Huo Yujue hurriedly went to untie Xiang Wanqing, but at this time, Xiang Wanqing was shocked and frightened, and she was already dying......

"Third brother, you ...... Didn't you go to the factory? What's ...... Coming back? Ning Jinxiu's eyes widened, full of anger and fear, because she seemed to have guessed what she would face next.

"Huh! I'm afraid I'm going to die if I don't come back! Huo Yujue glared at Ning Jinxiu fiercely, and Ning Jinxiu was frightened by his eyes and took a step back.

Huo Yujue picked up Xiang Wanqing and ran out: "Someone! Ask the doctor to ......."

At dinner time, in the hall of the Huo family, the old lady sat on the main seat, and Uncle Li and Mother Wu served on both sides.

Ning Jinxiu knelt in the center of her head, her eyes drooped, the corners of her mouth twitched, she was already sweating on her forehead with fright, but her face still showed unwillingness.

"Huo Jiasheng can't get rid of you, right? Well? The old lady snorted.

She had just finished praying on the mountain and was having a meal with the presiding officer of the temple when the family sent by Huo Yujue arrived and informed her of what had happened at home.

And Ning Jinxiu was immediately brought into the hall for interrogation, only to see her speak in a slurred manner: "No...... No, Mom, I ......."

"How are you? Keep talking! The old lady ordered.

"I... I... I'm just a surrogate mother... Execute... Enforce the ancestral rules. Ning Jinxiu lowered her head and didn't dare to raise it again.

"Oh? Enforce the ancestral rules on my behalf? Is there any mandate from me? The old lady slapped her palm on the desk, "Ning Jinxiu, you are so bold!" If Yujue hadn't arrived in time today, the second young grandmother would have been killed by you, wouldn't it?! ”

Ning Jinxiu trembled with fright, and her voice also trembled: "No... I... I'm just doing it... Do it... It's just looks. This sentence is obviously too empty-hearted, and the further back it goes, the lower the volume.

"Dare to quibble! Hehe! Pretending? Ghost believes! Your beating sticks are real hardwood sticks! If you hit a person, you will be seriously injured if you don't die! ”

The old lady stood up, walked to Ning Jinxiu's side, approached her and asked, "Ning Jinxiu, I want to ask you, who gave you the courage to dare to be so lawless in the Huo family?" Well? ”

Ning Jinxiu didn't dare to look directly into the old lady's eyes, her body began to tremble, and the sweat on her forehead also fell down in big drops, "Mom, I'm ...... Please...... Please spare your daughter-in-law this time, and your daughter-in-law won't dare next time. She knelt down with a thud.

The old lady didn't appreciate it, she had already endured Ning Jinxiu, and she had been giving her a chance, and last time she had Uncle Li secretly warn her, but she didn't know how to review herself, but became more and more arrogant.

"Hehe, next time? Do you want to have a next time? ”

"No...... No, Mom, I didn't mean that, I mean... I... I... I won't do it again in the future..."Although Ning Jinxiu was afraid of the old lady, the unwillingness in her eyes could not be concealed, which meant that she was still unconvinced, and she was still jealous of Xiang Wanqing.

The old lady closed her eyes, sighed, and spoke: "Uncle Li, Mother Wu, you listen well, from today onwards, the eldest young grandmother Ning Jinxiu will no longer serve as the deputy housekeeper of the Huo family...... Moreover, she was punished to think about it behind closed doors for a month, and within a month, she was not allowed to go out of the courtyard of the big house. ”

"Nope! Mom, don't......" Ning Jinxiu fell to the ground and grabbed the hem of the old lady's clothes.

The old lady brushed off her hand and walked out.

In the third room, Xiang Wanqing was lying on the bed with her clothes closed, her face was still pale, and there were beads of sweat on her forehead.

Although Huo Yujue and the old lady invited two doctors to visit her yesterday, the old lady went to her house several times to personally comfort her, and she had already drunk several bowls of calming decoction, but yesterday's scene still made her feel palpitations at this time.

What kind of family is the Huo family? Why is there never a time for peace? Why does she always experience disappointment again when she first feels a little hope? Twists and turns, blows can come at any time, and disasters will also fall from the sky, making her unprepared.

"Miss, the slave is sorry for you, the slave is guilty...... Xiao Que knelt in front of Xiang Wanqing's bed again and cried.

"Little finch, why do you say that? Hurry up. Xiang Wanqing stretched out his hand to pull the little finch.

Xiaoque hurriedly turned around and helped Wanqing: "Miss, don't move, be careful of your body, it's not good to be a slave, you lie down and ......."

"And what do you say?" Xiang Wanqing said angrily.

"Don't talk about it, not only did the slave not protect you, but in turn let you worry about the slave, the slave should die......," Xiaoque continued to blame herself.

"Well, little finch, how many times have you said it since yesterday? My ears are calloused, and you don't know anything about the situation at that time, and there is nothing you can do about it, so how can I blame you. Xiang Wanqing coughed as she spoke.

Hearing Xiang Wanqing's cough, Xiao Que became extremely nervous again, and she immediately asked, "Miss, are you okay?" Does it matter? Do you want me to tell the old lady to call the doctor again? She patted her back and took out a handkerchief to wipe her sweat.

"No, I'm fine." Xiang Wanqing sat up slowly: "It's just that yesterday's events were too sudden, and I still feel scared when I think about it now, if it weren't for the third young master's temporary return home, I'm afraid I'd be ...... by now" Speaking of this, she sighed softly.

Xiaoque helped Xiang Wanqing put the pillow up and leaned against the head of the bed, and helped her sit down: "Miss, the third young master is really a good person, he helped you talk last time when the young grandmother made things difficult for you, and this time he rushed back in time to save you, according to the slave, the third young master can also be regarded as your savior." ”

As soon as Xiang Wanqing heard the words "life-saving benefactor", she suddenly thought of the scene when they met by the river, she smiled slightly, and couldn't help but be a little distracted.

"Miss, what's wrong with you?" The little finch asked worriedly again.

"Oh, I'm fine." Xiang Wanqing came back to her senses and saw Xiao Qi's extremely nervous appearance, so she had to tell her, "Xiao Qi, have you finished drinking my medicine?" You go to the kitchen to decoct the medicine. She wanted to find something for her to do, so she could distract her.

Xiaoque was ordered to go down to decoction of medicine, and while walking, she turned back to look at Wanqing uneasily, as if she had made another mistake.

It turned out that before Ning Jinxiu brought those thugs to the three-room courtyard to ask Xiang Wanqing for her guilt yesterday, she had already found someone else to lure Xiaoque and Huo Yujin away.

At that time, the two of them were swinging in the garden, and Ning Jinxiu sent a small servant to take a lot of candy to Huo Yujin, saying that as long as he went with him, he would give him candy to eat, where could Huo Yujin resist this temptation? Then he jumped up and down and followed the little guy.

And Xiaoque's duty all day that day was to take care of Huo Yujin, so that Xiang Wanqing could read with peace of mind, so she had to follow closely behind them.

Unexpectedly, the next little guy led Huo Yujin and Xiaoque to a nearby room, and then when they gave Huo Yujin candy to eat, they used a towel dipped in sweat medicine to cover their mouths in turn......

Both of them fainted, and by the time they woke up, it was almost dark......

Only then did Xiao Que know what her young lady had suffered during this day, and she felt extremely guilty and guilty, thinking that if she hadn't been gullible and still stunned, she might be able to protect Xiang Wanqing from all this fright and disaster.

Xiao Que was concentrating on decocting the medicine in the kitchen, Xiang Wanqing was sitting alone on the bed in the hall, she raised her head and looked around the room, although it was a little smaller, she still liked it.

Because this is her own independent space, it is a small hiding place for her in this huge Huo family, and more importantly, it is much better for her to sleep alone than with Huo Yujin.

In fact, on the second night of getting married, Xiang Wanqing slept in a separate room with Huo Yujin, Huo Yujin slept in the big bed in the outhouse, and Xiang Wanqing slept in the small bed in the inner room.

The old lady also saw this when she came over last night, and she was very surprised at first, but she didn't say anything, and she didn't blame Xiang Wanqing, after all, she knew Huo Yujin's situation better than anyone else, and after that, she acquiesced to this matter.

It's just that she reminded Xiang Wanqing and Xiaoque that they must be careful in this matter, and they must keep it secret and not let others know. And asked Xiang Wanqing to promise that if someone else was present, she would make sure that she slept in the same room with her husband, and she couldn't leak any flaws, otherwise, if someone made a fuss about this matter, she wouldn't be able to explain it to everyone.

At this time, Xiang Wanqing's heart was really a little up, on the one hand, she was stunned by Ning Jinxiu's viciousness and ruthlessness towards her, but on the other hand, she felt comforted and moved by Huo Yujue and the old lady's protection and understanding of her.
