Guest rooms in the outer courtyard of the same prefect's house.

Xie Qian changed his clothes in the wing, and after entering the water, he was blown all the way by the cold wind, and at this moment he was really cold and couldn't help but shiver.

"Squeak" sounded, the door of the wing room opened from the inside, Xie Qian came out with some vain steps, and saw Xue Xiucai standing in the hall at a glance, standing straight and with a cold face.

Hearing movement at the door of the wing, he turned his head, glanced at Xie Qian with his eyebrows, and asked in a cold voice, "How do you plan to deal with today's matter?" ”

Xie Qian was puzzled, his brows furrowed, and he asked rhetorically, "What does Xue Gongzi mean by this?" ”

They are all smart people, so why pretend to be stupid! Xue Xiucai snorted coldly: "Don't Gongzi Xie know whether men and women are kissed or not?" Today's events, in front of everyone's eyes, you and your sister hooked their shoulders and waists, and there is already a skin-to-skin blind date, Xie Gongzi asked, is he trying to shirk his responsibility and put his sister to death? ”

What kind of men and women don't kiss, is this to force him to marry Xue Birong? Xie Qian sneered, if he knew that the person who fell into the water was not Jin Nian, how could he save people with all his brains, and now he would cause a commotion!

He approached Xue Xiucai and refused coldly: "I don't have any other intentions for Ling Mei, at that time, I was only thinking about saving people, and I had to go into the water, Xue Gongzi was not grateful to be in the next place, but now he wants to use this as a threat, is it a gentleman's doing?" Please also ask Xue Gongzi not to be strong! ”

"What did a gentleman do? Force somebody's hand? As if he had heard some funny joke, Xue Xiucai sneered: "A gentleman dares to be a gentleman, at that time, you don't have to go into the water to save people, in this way, even if the sister dies, she can maintain her innocence, and she will also have the name of the Xue family!" Now, since you saved her, you have to be responsible for her innocence, otherwise, I can only let her die to thank her innocence! ”

He spoke righteously, as if the person who was going to die had no kinship with him!

Xie Qian only felt that his blood was surging, and men and women were on defense, no matter how he argued, he was on the disadvantageous side.

Thinking of the worry in Jin Nianying's ink eyes, Xie Qian felt a faint uneasiness in his heart, he simply threw away his sleeves and ignored Xue Xiucai's nonsense, raised his feet and walked out of the hall.

As soon as he stepped out of the hall door, he saw Jin Nian's scarlet figure at a glance, standing quietly under the corridor at the moment, the thin sun of late autumn was scattered on her, faint, her figure was a little thin, a little blurred, as if she could disappear from his sight at any time.

She must have heard the conversation between herself and Xue Xiucai, she must have felt extremely embarrassed! Xie Qian's heart suddenly cooled a lot, and he didn't know how to face Jin Nian at this moment.

He felt uncomfortable and blamed himself, and only felt that he had failed Jinnian!

"Cousin." It was Jin Nian who broke the silence first, and she tried her best to smile naturally and said, "You're okay, right?" ”

"Nothing!" Xie Qian smiled bitterly, his face was a little uglier than when he first came up from the lotus pond.

Jin Nian was silent, as far as the argument in the Shicai house was concerned, she heard it from beginning to end, although she was not familiar with Xue Xiucai, but the last time we met in the teahouse, it could be seen that Xue Xiucai was a stubborn and death-conscious person!

Such a person will definitely stick to what he believes to the end, my cousin wants to get rid of Xue Birong, but I am afraid that it will not be easy, and it will not be good, in the end, Xue Xiucai will really let Xue Birong prove his innocence with death.

Just like the Su clan in the previous life, he used the clan to force his father to enforce the clan rules!

Xie Qian hurriedly returned to the Xie Mansion.

Jin Nian and Du Juan returned to the second courtyard.

As soon as he entered the courtyard gate, Jin Nian immediately signaled the maid guarding the courtyard to close the courtyard door, and he took the cuckoo into the house.

She swept away the indifference when she was in the outer courtyard, and her face sank as if she was about to drip water, "Tell me what's going on?" Didn't you go back here to change your clothes, why did you delay on the lotus pond? ”

Du Juan's heart was "groaning", she didn't dare to look directly at her own miss, and bowed her head and said: "When I walked to the lotus pond, Miss Xue said that she wanted to blow a cool breeze by the pool to breathe. She was a guest, I didn't dare to object, so I had to let her, and somehow, she was walking, and suddenly her foot slipped and fell into the water......"

After hearing this, Jin Nian's face turned a little colder, "Then why did the young master just pass by there?" "You know, the lotus pond is in the backyard, and my cousin is socializing with my father in the outer yard, so how can I run to the backyard?

That's too much of a coincidence, isn't it?

Is Miss suspicious of something? The cuckoo raised his heart, didn't dare to think about it, and replied with a small meaning: "It's the maid who guarded the door before, named Lu Qiao, and it's the young master she called ...... cousin."

Speaking of this, Du Juan glanced up at Jin Nian and said in a low voice: "Young Master Biao thinks that the person who fell into the water is Miss You......"

Her voice was very low, but it fell on Jin Nian's heart, but it was like being hit with a heavy hammer, which was muffled, making her heart hurt.

She thought of Xue Birong, who was wearing the same crimson clothes as her.

Could it be that the incident of falling into the water was really planned by Xue Birong?

Jin Nian's heart chilled, if it was because of her, her cousin was really framed by Xue Birong, if this was the case, Xue Birong would definitely try her best to enter the door of Xie Mansion, what her grandmother was looking forward to, and the relationship between her and her cousin......

She closed her eyes forcefully, not daring to think further.

The most important thing now is to ventilate with my grandmother and aunt as soon as possible!

Jin Nian changed into a lotus-colored gown and took the cuckoo to Xie Mansion.

Aunt Rong lives in the backyard.

The conversation between Xue Xiucai and Xie Qian in the guest room of the outer courtyard was quickly passed by Aunt Rong's ears and eyes.

Xue Birong had a white face, took Aunt Rong's hand and said in horror: "Sister Rong, if Gongzi Xie refuses to marry me, my brother will really let me die!" Sister Rong, you save me......"

When the matter came to an end, she was still panicking, and Aunt Rong hated iron and steel: "He is your brother after all, is it true that he wants to watch you die?" You just have to relax, the door of the Xie family, you are settled, don't say anything stupid......"

Because of Aunt Rong's words, Xue Birong begged as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw: "Sister Rong, you came up with the idea of falling into the water, you can teach me what to do next!" ”

"Isn't it easy?" Aunt Rong turned the jade bracelet in her hand and said lightly: "You just show weakness on both sides, just think that you are really innocent, and the matter will naturally be done!" ”

A cold light flashed in Aunt Rong's eyes, she didn't believe it, for the reputation of the Xie family, could the Xie family still ignore Xue Birong's life or death? As soon as Su Jinnian came, her son was going to separate from her, so she would retaliate with a tooth for a tooth and ruin Su Jinnian's good marriage!

She suddenly had some anticipation, wanting to see what kind of expression Su Jinnian should have on Su Jinnian's face when Xue Birong entered the Xie Mansion!

After persuading for a while, Xue Birong was no longer panicked, just in time, the maid came to report that Xue Xiucai invited Xue Birong back to the house, and the brother and sister returned to the house.
