Chapter Forty-Six: She Doesn't Have to Be That

Xiao Yicheng hesitated, and only after a long time did he raise his eyes and smile deeply at Jiang Wan, "Fourth Aunt still plans to go back?" ”

Jiang Juan stared, and couldn't see what Xiao Yicheng meant at all, so he could only say in a deep voice: "If this is done by the eldest lady, then I really have to go back and ask, she doesn't want to give the money, why is it going around and around?" ”

Xiao Yicheng was silent, he stared at Jiang Xuan, as if thinking about something, and didn't notice the movement of the people under his feet at all.

Until White Frost suddenly exclaimed, "Oh no, this man is dead!" ”

Xiao Yicheng lowered his head at this time, and found that the strong man who was begging for mercy just now was out of breath.

Jiang Juan leaned over to take a breath, and his whole person instantly became furious.

"Second son, you killed him!"

Jiang Juan raised his eyes and stared directly at Xiao Yicheng, the angry light in his eyes was like flames.

Xiao Yicheng retracted his feet and looked innocent: "I didn't do anything, why did the fourth aunt say that I killed the person?" ”

"Besides, why should I kill him?"

Jiang Wan twisted his eyebrows, "If you can deal with the aftermath of the eldest lady, you will naturally kill this person, so that I can't confront the eldest lady." ”

"I know that the second son is partial to the eldest lady, but I didn't expect you to be so biased, it's really chilling."

When she said this, her eyes couldn't help but turn red.

"Actually, I have long tried to find out that the eldest lady is indeed involved in the medicinal herbs, but I have no evidence to identify it, she took into account that I can heal the old lady, so she did not act openly, and the relationship between the two has been deadlocked so far."

"I thought that although the second son loved the Song family, he was a distinguisher between right and wrong, but I didn't expect you to openly clean up the aftermath for the eldest lady, I was extremely uncomfortable but helpless."

"I have no evidence, and there are people in the Bamboo Courtyard who are always watching openly and secretly, what can I do if I am bitter?"

The more Jiang Wan spoke, the more aggrieved she felt, she sat with her knees folded and sobbed softly.

"I know that my status is humble and I can't move the eldest lady, so I can only follow the eldest lady's wishes, take some money and leave the Hou Mansion, find another place, and find a living like ordinary women."

"On the way, I repeatedly comforted myself that although I was wronged, I managed to save my life and took a lot of money, which is not a loss."

"But I don't know that the eldest lady is ruthless, even the second son."

She suddenly raised her head, her eyes were full of grievance, grief and helplessness, but she was so stubborn that people couldn't help but feel moved.

For a moment, Xiao Yicheng seemed to see Jiang Juan when he first saw him on the boat.

He moved his lips, and those cold words suddenly became unspeakable.

Is that really the case?

All her previous strange reactions were out of helplessness, trying to find ironclad evidence to bring down the Xu family but to no avail?

And he, indeed, broke her plan.

He did hear that the Xu family really wanted to make Jiang Juan disappear.

Thinking of Jiang Juan's quiet past few days, Xiao Yicheng couldn't help frowning, and said secretly: Could it be that she has no other thoughts, but she thinks too much and misunderstands her?

Jiang Juan saw that Xiao Yicheng's face was a little sluggish, her heart suddenly moved, and she picked up the short sword in the strong man's hand and stabbed it in her heart.

"Aunt Jiang, don't!"

Bai Shuang screamed violently, Xiao Yicheng quickly came back to his senses, immediately kicked away the sword, and asked sharply: "What are you doing here?" ”

Jiang Juan said with a crying voice: "What can I do? I was lucky enough to escape this time, so what about next time? Who knows, will the eldest lady be worried about the 50,000 taels and continue to find someone to take my life? ”

"I won't return the money, now that my revenge has been fruitless, and someone has stopped me if I want to live well, then I have to die."

When she had finished speaking, she went to get the sword on the ground again.

Xiao Yicheng hurriedly grabbed her hand with his backhand, and said in a deep voice: "I only asked one sentence, but you said so much, and you cried and cried to seek death." ”

"If you die, will it not really be my sin?"

Jiang Wan had tears in his eyes and sobbed: "Then why did you kill him?" Don't leave me any hope? ”

"I ...... I really didn't mean to. ”

Xiao Yicheng had a headache instantly, he was just a little hard just now, but he didn't know that this person was dead.

Jiang Juan turned his head and snorted lightly, "The second son said this, I'm afraid that even you won't believe it!" ”

Xiao Yicheng saw that she didn't believe it, so he had to slow down his tone and said in a good voice: "Although I respect my stepmother, I am not unreasonable, you have no enmity with me, I have no reason to deliberately stumble on you, and there is no need to kill people in order to protect my stepmother." ”

Jiang Wan secretly hooked his lips, and a moment of joy flashed in his heart.

But when she looked back, she looked pitiful and helpless, "You said that you have no enmity with me, and there is no need to stumble on me, but you know that the matter of medicinal materials is related to the eldest lady, why do you still want to find someone to blame, and then you won't give me an explanation?" ”

"You know that the eldest lady drove me away and didn't leave me alive, why do you want to fan the flames?"

"And him, you know that this person may have been arranged by the eldest lady, why did you kill him with one kick?"

As soon as Jiang Wan finished talking, Xiao Yicheng was suddenly speechless, and his mind couldn't turn in an instant.

Today, he can be regarded as seeing this woman's sharp teeth.

In the past, Xiao Yicheng had no patience to listen for a long time, but this time, he was unprecedentedly good-tempered.

Xu felt a little indebted to Jiang Xuan, and Xiao Yicheng's tone softened a lot when he spoke.

"I said it all, I didn't mean it just now, as for the medicinal herbs, ......"

He sighed softly, "She is my stepmother, she has nurtured me, I should give her a chance to correct her mistakes, and she also promised that there will be no next time." ”

"Fourth aunt, she is the mother of the Hou Mansion, selling His Majesty's rewards privately, stealing bizarre poisons is not good for the Hou Mansion, she naturally understands this."

Jiang Wan smiled, her eyes full of sarcasm, "You see, she promised you on the surface, but behind her back, she still let people kill me." ”

Xiao Yicheng's heart chuckled, and he suddenly felt that he thought of Xu's words "As long as the fourth aunt is safe, she will definitely not be embarrassed".

But now, Xu Shi first used money to coax people away, and then let people get rid of them quickly, this approach is really not like her before.

Before, Xiao Yicheng's attention was on Jiang Xuan, so he stood on Xu's side to help fan the flames, but this time, he faintly hesitated.

Jiang Juan saw that his face was gloomy, and continued: "The second prince never asks about the affairs of the house, probably not knowing that the eldest lady has opened a new shop, and she has made a net profit of 50,000 taels in just a few days, you say, what kind of business is so profitable?" ”

Xiao Yicheng raised his eyes keenly and asked, "What do you mean by this?" ”

Jiang Juan said: "I didn't want to say it, after all, this matter has nothing to do with me, and it won't do me any good if I say it, but now, I see that the second son seems to be blinded by love, so I can't help but want to remind me." ”

"You once said that Mrs. Hou is generous and benevolent, and has the demeanor of a housewife, but I think she may not be like this."
