Chapter 154: Self-Inflicted Consequences
As soon as she entered the study, Zhou Shumei saw Xiao Qi sitting silently on the rosewood chair, looking at the white jade wrench in her hand with a solemn face. She stepped forward to bless her body, and at the same time motioned to the girl to take the bird's nest porridge out of the food box, "Master, let's use some porridge." ”
"Take it down." Xiao Xi still lowered his eyes and touched the wrench in his hand, his voice was cold, and he couldn't hear the slightest fluctuation.
"Master, this porridge was specially cooked for you by Princess Yan, you must not live up to Princess Yan's wishes. The concubine body over there has been sent over, you see...... You might as well eat somewhat. Zhou Shumei persuaded softly.
Xiao Yan raised his head, and his deep eyes looked straight at Zhou Shumei, "You want me to eat." ”
Zhou Shumei's smile stiffened for a moment, but soon, she smiled, "Master, not only the concubine, this is also the princess's expectation." The concubine knows that the old lady is gone, you are sad, but no matter how sad you are, you must pay attention to your body. ”
The corners of Xiao Yan's lips hooked, and he lowered his eyes and laughed dryly, "I didn't know that you cared about me so much." ”
Zhou Shumei smiled and was about to say something more, but she heard Xiao Yan's voice ring again.
"You can eat."
"Master, this porridge was specially prepared for you by Princess Yan, how can the concubine be ......?"
"Eat." Xiao Yan suddenly interrupted Zhou Shumei's words in a deep voice.
Zhou Shumei trembled, but when she raised her eyes, she saw that Xiao Yan's expression had become fierce at some point, and there was a terrifying coldness in her deep eyes, "Master, you ...... What's wrong with you? ”
"I'll let you eat this bowl of bird's nest porridge." The fierceness in Xiao Yan's eyes remained unchanged, and there was a faint hint of coercion.
On his back, a fine layer of cold sweat gradually broke out.
What the hell is going on? Xiao Yan's expression is wrong! Could it be that he found something?
Just when Zhou Shumei was secretly guessing, Xiao Yan suddenly slapped the table and stood up, and said with a pale face, "Didn't you hear what I said?" ”
"Master, what's wrong with you......" was yelled at by Xiao Yan, and there was already a ghost in her heart, Zhou Shumei's pretty face suddenly turned as pale as paper, big tears rolled down, and Chu Chu covered her face pitifully and cried.
But Xiao Yan was still unmoved, "After drinking it, I will treat it as if nothing has happened." After speaking, he paused, "Or, you are asking me to call someone to feed you." ”
Zhou Shumei shuddered and subconsciously looked at the bowl of bird's nest porridge on the table.
The bird's nest porridge on the table was still steaming, but Zhou Shumei felt as if she had fallen into an ice cave, and she felt a chill all over her body.
Things turned around so quickly that she didn't understand where she was exposed.
Looking at Xiao Yan's words and deeds, she clearly knew that there was something wrong with this bird's nest porridge, but she was obviously very careful.
"Since your master refuses to eat, then feed her." Xiao Yan's angry gaze suddenly swept towards the girl Yan Hong beside Zhou Shumei.
Yan Hong was startled and hurriedly knelt down, "Slave, slave doesn't dare." ”
"Don't dare! Could it be that you want to drink this bowl of porridge for your master. Xiao Yan sneered.
Yan Hong looked frightened and shook her head repeatedly, "No, no, that's not what the slave meant. ”
Xiao Yan's words made Zhou Shumei break out in a cold sweat and tremble, as if walking on a tightrope on a cliff, if she was not careful, she would fall to pieces. Her eyes were wet, and she looked at Xiao Yan with a cry, "Master, what are you doing here?" Did the concubine do something wrong? This bird's nest porridge was sent by Princess Yan to her concubine, and the concubine really doesn't know anything! ”
"Mother really doesn't know anything?" At this moment, a cold voice suddenly sounded.
Zhou Shumei hurriedly turned her head, only to see Xiao Xi holding Hongyu's hand slightly, leading the purple smoke and blue clouds to walk in from outside the door.
Seeing Xiao Xiwei suddenly appear here, Zhou Shumei was stunned at first, and then, her heart seemed to be thrown into ice water, cold from head to foot.
It turns out that the so-called delivery of porridge is not a godsend at all, but a lure into the urn.
Xiao Xiwei!
Xiao Xiwei!
Xiao Xiwei!
This woman is truly terrifying!
"Yes, the bird's nest porridge was indeed sent by me, and I asked my mother to give this porridge to my grandfather and father on my behalf, but I don't seem to have asked my mother to put other things in the porridge." Xiao Xiwei walked up to Zhou Shumei and looked at her with a smile and said.
"I, I don't understand what you're talking about." Although I was so flustered in my heart that I couldn't do anything, I could only stop trying to support myself.
Xiao Xi lowered his eyes and smiled slightly, then took out a prescription from his cuff and threw it to Zhou Shumei, "Then you should know this prescription." ”
Snow white paper, guiwei, safflower, danpi, aconite, rhubarb...... Rows of herbs are all used for abortion.
This, how could this prescription be in Xiao Xiwei's hands.
Zhou Shumei bit her lip hard, and her whole body trembled uncontrollably.
"Slut!" Seeing Zhou Shumei's expression, Xiao Yan knew that everything Xiwei told her was true, and at that moment, he could no longer suppress the monstrous anger in his heart, and raised his leg and kicked Zhou Shumei's body fiercely.
The sharp pain in her chest made Zhou Shumei wake up suddenly, she crawled to Xiao Yan despite the pain, reached out and hugged his leg hard, "Master, I was forced, and I was forced to do it!" He used Riel to force me, and I couldn't do it...... I can't help it......"
"Get out of here!" Xiao Yan's forehead jumped with green tendons, and he raised his leg and kicked it again.
Even though Xiwei and Mama Liu said all her words and deeds in front of him, he always had a little luck in his heart for her, until the bowl of bird's nest porridge just now.
What the hell did he do, and why did they betray him one by one!
Why!
"Sir...... I also can't help myself, that time I went to Chao'an Temple to ask for a peace charm for Rui'er, but I didn't think about it but was ...... But it was designed by that brute. Zhou Shumei couldn't cry as she spoke, and suddenly, she turned her gaze to Xiao Xiwei, "Princess, I have no grudge against him, and the only reason I have a grudge with him is because of ...... Because I helped you that time! ”
Xiao Xiwei only glanced at Zhou Shumei lightly, and then looked at Xiao Yan next to him, "Father, something has happened, and it won't help you to be angry." Right now, you see ......"
Xiao Yan's eyes flashed with anger, and his eyes stared at Zhou Shumei motionlessly.
Zhou Shumei was trembling at Xiao Yan's gaze, and the blood on her face was gone, she hurriedly crawled to Xiao Yan again, tugging at the corners of his sleeves with both hands, crying and begging, "Master, I am also confused for a while, please look at the love of our husband and wife...... By the way, there is also Rui'er, Rui'er is still so young, he can't live without his mother! Lord......"
Xiao Yan didn't bother to look at Zhou Shumei's face anymore, he raised his eyes and looked at Xiao Xiwei, "Everything depends on you." With that, he reached out and broke Zhou Shumei's hand hard, raised his leg and walked out of the door.
"Old man......"
Behind her, Zhou Shumei's poignant and desperate voice rang out. This scene is more to the scene when the Li family was left of the mansion in the first place.
"You don't have to shout, he won't forgive you for your father's temperament." Xiao Xiwei looked at Zhou Shumei and said coldly.
Hearing Xiao Xiwei's voice, Zhou Shumei slowly turned her face, she reached out to wipe a handful of tears, and raised her eyebrows to look at Xiao Xiwei, "I thought that even if we weren't friends, at least we shouldn't be enemies." ”
"Yes, I thought so before last night." Xiao Xi looked at Zhou Shumei quietly, "What I gave you a chance is that you didn't cherish it." ”
"You gave me a chance?" Zhou Shumei was stunned for a moment, and then she thought of what Xiao Xiwei was listening to Yuge say to her yesterday. A wry smile slowly crept up the corner of her mouth, "It turns out that you already knew." ”
"It's not me who knows about it, it's my grandmother." Xiao Xi looked at Zhou Shumei coldly.
"Old lady......" At this time, even Zhou Shumei could not be surprised.
Unexpectedly, it turned out that the old lady knew about it, so why didn't she say it?
As if seeing Zhou Shumei's doubts, Xiao Xiwei continued, "Grandmother, it's not that she doesn't say it, she just doesn't know how to talk to her father, besides, according to her grandmother's physical condition at the time, even if she wants to deal with you, she is powerless." ”
Listening to Xiao Xiwei's words, Zhou Shumei lowered her head and laughed suddenly, "Then what are you going to do with me now?" Kill me? ”
Xiao Xi glanced at Biyun with a slight sideways glance, Biyun blessed her body, and then took out a bowl of bird's nest porridge from the food box she brought and put it on the table.
"This is porridge with five stones in it."
"You're going to poison me!"
"You know, the old lady has not been buried yet, and the Houfu can no longer spread the news of the sudden death of the 'master mother'." Xiao Xi looked at Zhou Shumei calmly and said, "So, this bowl of porridge won't let you die, it will only make it look a little abnormal." ”
"You're trying to poison me!" Zhou Shumei stood up suddenly, glared at Xiao Xi with resentful eyes and said loudly, "No! I can't eat it! If the Houfu can't spread the news of the 'violent death' of the housemother, can it spread the news that the housemother is crazy! ”
"During the funeral of the old lady, the little young master occasionally felt the wind and cold and unfortunately died, and he suddenly fell ill with epilepsy under the excitement." Xiao Xiwei looked at Zhou Shumei word by word.
Zhou Shumei took a few steps back when she heard this, she pointed at Xiao Xiwei's fingers and kept trembling, her voice was frightened and resentful, "You, what are you going to do to my Rui'er!" ”
"What I'm going to do to him depends on how you do it." Xiao Xi looked at Zhou Shumei's eyes calmly and said.
"You, you're threatening me." Zhou Shumei gritted her teeth and looked at Xiao Xi slightly.
Xiao Xiwei looked at Zhou Shumei and didn't speak.
Zhou Shumei pursed her dry lips, and now, where is there a way out for her.
"How do I know if you're lying to me."
"Anyway, Riel is my own brother after all. If you're crazy, he's so young, and there's no threat to me or my brother, so I have no reason to hurt him. Besides, take 10,000 steps back and say, even if I really want to do something to him, you can't stop it, can you? Xiao Xi raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Zhou Shumei and said, "So far, you can only choose to believe me." ”
Looking at Xiao Xiwei's beautiful and cold face, a weak smile gradually appeared on the corner of Zhou Shumei's mouth.
She said that it was fine, and now she can only choose to believe her.
Step by step, step by step, Zhou Shumei slowly walked to the table, stretched out her trembling hand and slowly picked up the bowl of porridge.
It's really ridiculous, obviously she brought the porridge to Xiao Yan to drink, but when it came to the end, the person who drank the porridge became her.
It's really a wrong step, a wrong step.
knew that this was the case, at the beginning, she should have confessed to Xiao Yan, so that at least she was not a vicious woman who wanted to kill her husband in his eyes like now.
The cold bird's nest porridge slowly flowed down his throat.
After a long time, Zhou Shumei slowly opened her eyes, she looked at Xiao Xiwei with tears, her eyes were unprecedentedly peaceful, "I'm sorry." ”
Xiao Xi glanced at her quietly, then turned around and led the girl out of the room slowly.
