Chapter 53: Seeing it with your own eyes

Just as the two of them were talking, Huo Xiting walked in from outside, Huo Xiting said hello to Aunt Wang, and then came to Huo Mu's side and stood.

Huo's mother looked at her daughter and said, "Xiaoxi, didn't you let you accompany your sister-in-law at home?" How did you come out on your own? ā€

Huo Xiting squatted down and picked up the preserved egg at her feet, and said: "Mother, my sister-in-law fell asleep after returning to the room, I didn't see anything wrong, so I ran out to play by myself for a while." ā€

"You kid, let you stay at home with your sister-in-law, why are you so lazy?" Huo Mu glared at Huo Xiting and complained.

Huo Xiting also lowered her head and spoke: "Mother, I don't think it's necessary to look at my sister-in-law all the time, my sister-in-law is not a prisoner, if she really wants to go out, we still have to stop her?" ā€

Huo Mu was choked by Huo Xiting's words, and she didn't know what to say for a while.

Yesterday Liu Xi's osmanthus cake, although Huo Xiting did not eat it in her mouth, but Huo Xiting's attitude towards Liu Xi was much better, she looked at Liu Xi with a lonely face, opened her mouth to say hello, and obediently leaned on Huo Mu's side, bowing her head to play with preserved eggs.

Liu Xi looked at Huo Xiting and smiled slightly: "Xiaoxi, yesterday's osmanthus cake was ruined because of some misunderstandings, will I make it for you again today?" ā€

As soon as she heard that there was osmanthus cake, Huo Xiting's saliva immediately flowed out, but thinking of yesterday's farce, Huo Xiting still shook her head gently: "No need, it's too troublesome." ā€

"Don't bother, I just made some osmanthus leftover yesterday, and when I go back, I'll make it for you to eat." Liu Xi hooked the corners of her mouth, yesterday she thought about putting the medicine Zhang Lin gave herself into the osmanthus cake, but when she thought of what Yang Juan said in the grocery store, Liu Xi guessed that Yang Chunyan must be wary of herself, so she came to an empty city plan, and what she really wanted to drug was this time.

In fact, what Zhang Lin gave was not a medicine that could kill people immediately after eating, this medicine was colorless and tasteless, although it was not highly toxic, it didn't matter if adults ate it, but after a child like Huo Xiting ate it, he didn't feel it for the first time, and he didn't feel it for the second time, but the effect of the medicine could penetrate deep into the bone marrow, and when he really found out that there was something wrong, Huo Xiting had already returned to heaven.

Thinking that the Huo family would be ruined by the family that he slowly stirred up, the smile on the corner of Liu Xi's mouth deepened.

Liu Xi did what she said, and after she did almost what Aunt Wang had done, she said goodbye to Huo's mother and returned to the Huo family alone.

When passing by the door of Yang Chunyan's house, Liu Xi paused slightly, but quickly raised his foot and left from the door of Yang Chunyan's house.

Last night, she saw Huo Yanshen and Yang Chunyan quarrel with her own eyes, although the two of them respect each other like guests on weekdays, but if it really makes Huo Yanshen angry, Yang Chunyan's life will not be much better.

Yang Chunyan, who was reading the account book in the room, was angry, but the more she saw the end, the calmer Yang Chunyan's heart became.

She also began to regret a little, regretting that her handling method yesterday was a little too radical, if she really suspected that there was something wrong with Liu Xi from the bottom of her heart, she should have quietly observed from the sidelines, instead of taking the initiative to jump out, so that not only did she seem very reckless, but she would also startle the snake.

The more Yang Chunyan thought about it, the more she regretted it, she raised her hand and knocked heavily on the door of her head, with a look of remorse.

In the past, she just thought that it would be good to use her cleverness in the grocery store business, and there would be no intrigue in a small family like the Huo family, but she didn't expect that a Liu Xi would come halfway.

Yang Chunyan felt that she was really careless, and she walked towards the door while being annoyed.

I heard a sound from afar in the stove room, Yang Chunyan was stunned, how could there be a sound in the stove room at this time period?

She raised her feet and slowly walked towards the stove room, through the window, Yang Chunyan clearly saw that Liu Xi was busy inside, Yang Chunyan's throat tightened, and she suddenly held her breath.

Through the window hole the size of a fingernail, Yang Chunyan saw that after Liu Xi had reconciled the dough, he took out something from his pocket, and the next second, he poured all the powder in the thing into the dough.

Yang Chunyan, who was hiding behind the window, covered her mouth in surprise, her eyes widened, and her brain was a little short-circuited for a while.

I actually saw Liu Xi drugged the dough?

Yang Chunyan bit her lip tightly, she tried her best to control her breathing, remembering what annoyed her just now, Yang Chunyan felt that there was no third person here except her and Liu Xi, if she rushed in directly to grab the bag like this, maybe Liu Xi would use another method, but put another hat on Yang Chunyan's head.

When he was about to turn around and leave, Yang Chunyan suddenly touched a flower pot at his feet, but this slight movement attracted the attention of Liu Xi in the stove room, Liu Xi turned around, quickly threw the paper wrapped in those medicines into the boiler, and turned his head to look out of the door: "Who is it!" ā€

It's too late, it's too fast, Yang Chunyan quickly adjusted her state, she raised her hand to cover her head, and pretended to be casual as she walked: "Who is making a fuss, is it possible to have ghosts in the blue sky and daylight?" Yo, Miss Liuxi, why are you here? ā€

Yang Chunyan looked like she was passing by the stove room, she looked at Liu Xi who was standing there, and asked.

Liu Xi was stunned for a while, and immediately smiled and said: "Yes, it's sister, I thought it was who." ā€

"There are only a few people in the Huo family, who else can it be?" Yang Chunyan stood in front of Liu Xi, smiled slightly, and asked rhetorically.

"Yes, that's what my sister said." Liu Xi was speechless for a moment, and could only bow his head to cater to him.

"Miss Liu Xi, what are you doing?" Yang Chunyan was no longer entangled in this topic, she looked down at the dough in Liu Xi's hand and asked.

"Yes...... It was Xiaoxi who said, it was a pity that yesterday's osmanthus cake was not eaten in the stomach, and it happened that there were still some osmanthus left, so I would come back and make it again for Xiaoxi. ā€

Liu Xi replied with a smile on his face, Yang Chunyan listened, but the cold sweat had already soaked his underwear.

She became more and more sure that Liu Xi was not an ordinary person, how could an ordinary person be drugged while pretending to be indifferent and say it?

The more this is the case, the more Yang Chunyan feels that she has to be steady, she tugged at the corners of her mouth, and her eyes fell on the dough to hide her uneasiness and panic: "That's right, those osmanthus cakes yesterday really made me ruined, since Xiaoxi wants to eat it, then trouble Miss Liu Xi." ā€

Liu Xi thought that Yang Chunyan would not be able to pull his face and turn around and brush his sleeves away, but he didn't expect that Yang Chunyan would say this.

"Where, where, my sister is polite, when I finish making the osmanthus cake, can I also call my sister out to eat it at that time?"

"Hmm. Yang Chunyan nodded, turned to leave, and when she walked to the door of the stove room, Yang Chunyan stumbled and almost fell because of her weak legs, but fortunately, she had a relatively high quality in her heart and quietly stabilized her figure, which did not let Liu Xi see any flaws. ā€

After leaving the stove room, Yang Chunyan glanced around, Huo Xiting hadn't come back yet, she hurriedly took her purse and walked out.

Since there was no way to expose Liu Xi's conspiracy, Yang Chunyan felt that the top priority was to get rid of Liu Xi's problematic osmanthus cake, no matter what, it was impossible for Yang Chunyan to watch Huo Xiting and others eat this problematic osmanthus cake.

Fortunately, Yang Chunyan knew that the shop that made osmanthus cakes on the street, and when she dropped Liu Xi's osmanthus cake yesterday, she remembered the appearance of the osmanthus cake made by Liu Xi, and she talked to the boss of the shop as it was, and soon got the freshly baked osmanthus cake.

Then, Yang Chunyan turned around and went back to the Huo family without stopping, she sneaked into the Huo family's yard, and happened to bump into Huo Xiting who came back.

Huo Xiting looked at Yang Chunyan, who looked a little nervous, tilted her head, and said puzzledly: "Sister-in-law, what did you do?" ā€

"I—I went out and bought some pen and ink, which I need to use to read the accounts." Yang Chunyan smiled slightly, stuffed the things in her hand into her arms, and replied.

"Oh." Huo Xiting couldn't see anything wrong with Yang Chunyan at all, she just nodded lightly, holding the preserved egg and preparing to go in.

Yang Chunyan couldn't help but ask more: "Aren't you playing at Aunt Wang's?" How did you get back? ā€

"Aunt Wang, they want to sit together and talk and embroider, and they asked me to come back and call Miss Liu Xi away, I think it's really boring there, so I'll come back first."

Huo Xiting answered honestly, and at the end, she also spoke: "By the way, sister-in-law, Miss Liu Xi said that she made the osmanthus cake, do you want to eat some?" ā€

"Okay, but Xiaoxi, you have to wash your hands before eating, the preserved eggs are rolling on the ground all day long, and you still play with it every day, and your hands are very dirty." When Yang Chunyan heard that Liu Xi was not there, she breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, just right, saving most of her effort.

Huo Xiting nodded, obediently ran to the well in the yard, and struggled to fetch water.

Taking advantage of Huo Xiting's inattention, Yang Chunyan ran to the stove room, replaced the osmanthus cake, and she picked up the problematic osmanthus cake made by Liu Xi and put it in her room for the time being.

After everything was taken care of, Yang Chunyan sat on the stool and breathed a heavy sigh of relief.

At this time, Huo Xiting came to Yang Chunyan's house with a osmanthus cake in one hand, stretched out her hand and handed Yang Chunyan a piece of osmanthus cake, and said inarticulately: "Sister-in-law, this osmanthus cake tastes good, you can also eat some." ā€

Yang Chunyan smiled slightly, stretched out her hand to take the osmanthus cake, and said: "By the way, Xiaoxi, you can promise me that I went out to buy pen and ink today, don't tell my mother and your brother?" ā€

Huo Xiting blinked her eyes and didn't think about it: "Of course you can, sister-in-law, in fact, my mother and brother don't let you go out, they just want to find a way to not let you meet Miss Liu Xi." ā€
