Qi Chuchu thought for a moment, looked at the bright sun outside, and gave up her idea of going to the back garden to sit.
"Xiao Ju, I want to eat watermelon. Go to the kitchen and help me get some."
"Okay, miss."
After Xiao Ju cut the melon and was about to go upstairs to Qi Chuchu's room, she happened to meet the young master Xu Yingjie who had just returned from playing football in the courtyard.
"What did you get?"
"Master Seven, this is the watermelon Miss Six wants."
Sixth sister? Is it the sixth sister who was with the third brother when her father died?
Xu Yingjie had just finished exercising at this time. He was hot and tired, so he waved to Xiao Ju to lower himself.
"You go and prepare another one. Let me eat this plate first. Sixth Sister won't mind." After Xu Yingjie said this, he snatched the plate of watermelon directly from Xiao Ju's hand and walked to the sofa to eat.
But this...
Xiaoju couldn't say anything, so she curled her lips and went back to the kitchen.
When she returned to Qi Chuchu's room, the flowers Qi Chuchu had been waiting for were all withered.
"Why have you been gone for so long? Xiaoju."
"I met the seventh young master in the middle. He kicked the ball back and ate the watermelon first." Xiaoju said a little embarrassed, keeping his head down.
Seventh Young Master? That kid.
"If he wants to eat, let the kitchen prepare another one, but he actually snatches it from his sister..." Qi Chuchu said to himself, and his affection for his younger brother dropped sharply.
However, what really drove Qi Chuchu crazy was when Xu Yingjie had diarrhea in the evening. When the family doctor came, Xu Yingjie insisted that it was something wrong with the portion of watermelon he ate.
The key point is that this watermelon was prepared by Miss Six's maid, Xiaoju.
In this way, the eldest lady naturally found a reason again. So what if she was rescued from the ancestral hall? If you find the reason, you can punish them.
The door was suddenly pushed open, Qi Chuchu looked over subconsciously, is it the eldest lady again?
It was also at this time that Qi Chuchu learned that Xu Yingjie had diarrhea.
"Madam, Yingjie is still a child, and his stomach is just a little weak. I also ate half of the watermelon in the afternoon, and there is nothing wrong with it." Qi Chuchu said.
"How much difference can it make? I wonder if your maid deliberately took the spoiled melons and fruits for Yingjie to eat? Sixth girl, you ruined the reputation of the Xu family yesterday, and today you deliberately harmed your younger brother. I have to give you some clues." .”
"Family method!"
As soon as the eldest lady shouted angrily, the woman who followed her immediately came out carrying a cane and a bench, and someone else came over and pushed Qi Chuchu down on the bench.
At this moment, Qi Chuchu finally understood that the eldest lady was just using the reason for Xu Yingjie's illness to teach him a lesson.
It seems that it was not a wise choice for Xu Jinchao to release her from the ancestral hall...
"Madam, madam, you must not do that! That watermelon was prepared by Xiaoju and has nothing to do with Miss Six. You can beat Xiaoju."
"Hit this girl too!"
Today, Qi Chuchu was not as lucky as yesterday. In addition, the eldest lady had a large number of people, so she could only suffer the loss and suffered twenty canes alive.
But during this period, she did not cry out in pain. Seeing her unyielding look, the eldest lady pinched Qi Chuchu's chin and said, "Xu Yihuan, do you know how your mother died? It was because she was not satisfied! Still want to have another son? Who does she think she is..."
"Now, if you think about things that don't belong to you, you may end up on the road to death! Please be more at ease with me in the future! Don't think that Xu Jinchao can protect you!"
After saying this, the eldest lady led the people out of Qi Chuchu's room. Qi Chuchu and Xiao Ju both fell to the ground.
"Miss..., Miss, I will go find the Third Young Master now and ask the Third Young Master to seek justice for you." Xiao Ju said, her voice trembling.
Qi Chuchu now only felt a burning pain on her back, and it was even more painful if she moved a little. She patted Xiao Ju's hand and said, "Silly Xiao Ju, if the third brother came back, she wouldn't be so blatant in trying to punish the family. . They must have seen the relationship between Third Brother and me during this period, and coupled with the incident in the Tang Mansion, this is why they have such hatred towards me..."
"However, ten years is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge. I will definitely not receive this beating today in vain. Our biggest thing now is to treat the injury and contact the doctor."
"But miss, they beat you like this..."
Qi Chuchu shook her head and once again emphasized the key points with Xiaoju. It is very likely that Xu Jinchao has not come back yet.
The facts were indeed as Qi Chuchu expected. Xu Jinzhao came back very late today. He only returned to Xu Mansion after the doctor treated both Qi Chuchu and Xiao Ju.
By chance, Xu Jinchao saw Dr. Lin's leaving figure, so he inquired about it.
After learning about several things that happened in Xu Mansion today, Xu Jinchao sighed inaudibly.
Dozens of canes? I really suffered a lot of grievances.
"Housekeeper, from now on, open a small stove for Miss Sixth and cook more meals that will help her recover from her injuries. In addition, send the old servants who injured Miss Sixth to clean up the warehouse and cellar."
"Yes, Master."
After giving the instructions, Xu Jinchao walked up the stairs. He originally wanted to go to Qi Chuchu's room to see her injuries, but he hesitated slightly.
Is it because the eldest lady taught Yi Huan such a lesson today because I released Yi Huan from the ancestral hall yesterday? It seems that letting Yi Huan stay at home is not a good idea.
After thinking about it carefully, Xu Jinchao turned around and went to the study again.
Although this disaster was a disaster, it was a blessing in disguise. Once Qi Chuchu was injured like this, except for being bored in the room all day long to recuperate, he never received any outside interference.
The eldest lady was busy with her own affairs all day long. Xu Yishu and Xu Yiwan were also busy in the porcelain shop. No one cared about Qi Chuchu anymore.
Moreover, every time Tang Yu, the instigator, came to Xu Mansion to find Qi Chuchu, he was blocked by Miss Six who needed to rest.
After more than half a month, Qi Chuchu's injury was almost healed.
Xu Jinchao came back very early that day, and as soon as he came back, he took Qi Chuchu out.
The car stopped in front of a foreign-style building. After getting off, Qi Chuchu looked at the two-story single-family house and muttered to herself, could it be that Xu Jinchao was hiding someone in the house?
But after entering, the room was empty. Qi Chuchu began to wonder.
"Third brother, what are we doing here?"
