Chapter 50: You Must Believe Me

"Well, it feels so much better."

The old lady held Xiao Yicheng's arm and caressed: "I heard that you found a famous doctor on the road, and she rescued me, thank you for your hard work." ”

Xiao Yicheng smiled: "As long as I can let my grandmother wake up safely, no matter how hard my grandson is, it's worth it." ”

"Good, good, really good boy for me."

The old lady sighed repeatedly, "It's a pity, she is a traveling doctor, and she is used to being at home, so she can't stand this kind of life in the house, otherwise, your stepmother will keep her for a few more days." ”

Traveling doctors?

Xiao Yicheng chuckled in his heart and turned his head to look at Xu.

I saw that Xu Shi panicked for a moment, and hurriedly avoided Xiao Yicheng's gaze, and comforted her in a good voice: "Mother rest assured, when the doctor left, her daughter-in-law gave her a lot of entanglements, and she didn't treat her badly." ”

"I know, you do things in a measured way, I believe you."

The old lady said with a slight smile, and instantly looked angry, "It's not like that Aunt Jiang, I'm really angry!" ”

"My son is not in the mansion, I am kind enough to protect her, but she frequently seduces the prince, makes the good Hou Mansion a miasma, and even so angry that I almost die, I really have no conscience."

"Ahemβ€”"

As soon as the old lady spoke excitedly, she immediately leaned over and coughed, which surprised Xu Shi and hurriedly comforted her.

"Mother, don't get excited, you've just gotten better, don't be angry because of her."

"Grandmother ......"

Xiao Yicheng's heart sank again, he turned his head to look at Xu, as if he was looking at a stranger, "How could my stepmother say that about Aunt Jiang?" ’

Xu's face stiffened, and just as he was about to make his eyes, he was viciously intercepted by the old lady.

She waved her hand and said angrily: "Chen'er doesn't have to speak for her, you rarely stay in the mansion on weekdays, and you don't know who Aunt Jiang is, but your eldest brother snubbed your sister-in-law all day because she snubbed your sister-in-law, you know this, right?" ”

Xiao Yicheng was speechless for an instant.

After that night, Song Huaijin stayed in the ancestral hall and never saw anyone, his attitude was extremely cold, and even Meng Yuntang didn't pay any attention to interceding for him.

Meng Yuntang and Song Huaijin have been married for more than a year, but they have never had children, because of the uproar between Song Huaijin and Jiang Juan, the old lady has already blamed Jiang Juan for this incident.

At this time, if he helped Jiang Juan speak, he was afraid that the old lady would be so angry that she would fall down again.

Xu was sure that Xiao Yicheng would not be exposed, so he comforted him: "Mother rest assured, Aunt Jiang will not have the opportunity to intervene between the two again, and I believe that their young couple will soon be reconciled." ”

Heh, she won't let Aunt Jiang live well, but she just won't have a chance to step in?

Xiao Yicheng also didn't know why, the strong man obviously didn't find out who was instructing him, but his spearhead was already pointed at the Xu family.

He was half-kneeling at the old lady's knees, his brow furrowed.

He couldn't listen to the next words anymore, he suddenly got up, and said with relief: "Grandmother, you just woke up, you should have a good rest, and don't worry about trivial matters in the house." ”

"By the way, there are too many affairs inside and outside the capital today, and my grandson has to be busy."

After he finished speaking, Yu Guang glanced at Xu, and Xu said in a loud voice: "Mother rest first, I'll go to the kitchen to see if the dessert prepared for the second son is ready." ”

The old lady was angry and irritable, and was in need of a good rest, and now she heard the two of them say that she had something to do, so she nodded her head in response.

When he went out and returned to the Peony Courtyard, Xu's smile instantly cooled.

She looked back at Xiao Yicheng and asked, "If I hadn't grabbed the words in time just now, would you have told Aunt Jiang about saving people?" ”

Xiao Yicheng stood with his hands in his hands and asked rhetorically, "Why not?" ”

Xu replied: "You also saw it just now, the old lady hates Aunt Jiang, she has just woken up, if she knows that the person who saved her is Aunt Jiang, wouldn't she faint again?" ”

"The old lady fainted and I was taking care of it these days, and I was too scared to be scared."

Xiao Yicheng's mind condensed slightly, "So, you are bound to drive away Aunt Jiang and hide the truth from the top and bottom of the house?" ”

Xu Shi took a deep breath and sighed: "I am thinking about the old lady's body, I don't want her to fall down again, and besides, I gave Aunt Jiang a sky-high diagnosis fee, which is not a bad treatment for her, you know about it." ”

Xiao Yicheng snorted, and his heart became tighter and tighter, "I know that my stepmother gave Aunt Jiang a sky-high price for the consultation, but what I don't know is that you never thought of letting her live with this money." ”

Xu Shi was stunned and looked at Xiao Yicheng in surprise.

Today's Xiao Yicheng is still calm as usual, but Xu faintly feels that there seems to be an undercurrent under this calm, which makes people shudder.

She tensed up and nervously asked, "What do you mean by that?" ”

Xiao Yicheng stared at Xu's eyes and said in a deep voice: "I heard that there have been robbers in Changlin on the outskirts of Beijing recently, and the direction of Aunt Jiang's departure from Beijing happened to pass by there yesterday. ”

"I also heard that those robbers are very interesting, and they just want to rob Aunt Jiang alone."

Xu's heart chuckled, and he hurriedly calmed down his emotions, and said sharply to Xiao Yicheng: "What are you talking to me about this, you suspect that I did this!" ”

Xiao Yicheng chuckled, didn't say the words that the strong man confessed, but looked at Xu silently.

Xu's heart was even more tense when she saw him like this, she remembered that Xiao Yicheng was facing her that day, but at this moment, it seemed that she had come to ask her about the guilt.

Xiao Yicheng's eyes used to be clean, and he could see through his mind at a glance, but now, Xu Shi can't see through it.

She pursed her lips, and said in her heart that she couldn't let Xiao Yicheng be hostile to her, she hurriedly cheered up and said angrily:

"Chen'er, do you know how long it will take to earn 50,000 taels back? If I had the heart to kill her, how could I give her so much silver? How could it come around in such a big circle? ”

"I worked hard for the sake of the old lady's body, for the sake of the harmony between the prince and his wife, and for the sake of the Hou Mansion, but in the end it made you suspicious, what am I trying to do?"

The more Xu Shi spoke, the more angry he became, the more aggrieved he became, and his face became red.

Seeing her like this, Xiao Yicheng hurriedly smiled and said comfortingly: "I didn't say that you did this, why is my stepmother so angry?" ”

Xu's eyes widened suddenly, "I...... You ......"

"Then why are you telling me this, and after meeting the old lady?"

Xiao Yicheng smiled: "I heard two mouths on the way back, so I wanted to come back and tell you, it's just a story, I didn't expect my stepmother to be so excited when she heard it." ”

Xu was stunned, and was stunned by Xiao Yicheng's changeable attitude.

Xiao Yicheng said again: "My stepmother is generous and generous, and she promised me that as long as Aunt Jiang is safe, you will not embarrass her, so how can I doubt you?" ”

Xu's heart was slightly relieved, but she was still not at ease, so she walked up to Xiao Yicheng and said word by word:

"Chen'er, although I am not your biological mother, I have never treated you badly, so you must believe me, you know?"
