Dongzi lives very close to Tingxiu.
He could clearly see Tingxiu's expression changing again and again.
Dongzi knew Tingxiu and knew that she was his cousin's personal maid.
But he doesn't like his cousin, nor does he like Tingxiu.
Most people in Sanli City are very kind, especially to children like him.
Even the maids and maids around Mrs. Chen were very kind to him, and would even give him some delicious food when they met her occasionally.
Only the cousin and Tingxiu didn't seem to like him.
Even though he pretends to smile in front of others, he seems to like him very much.
But a child's feelings cannot be deceived. He can still tell who really likes you and who is just pretending.
So when he saw Tingxiu just now, Dongzi subconsciously chose to hide.
If the visitor was looking forward to summer or autumn, he would definitely greet him directly.
So seeing Tingxiu's expression changing at this moment, Dongzi couldn't help but feel scared, and tried to shrink his body for fear of being discovered.
The conversation in the woods was now coming to an end.
Aunt Dong seemed dissatisfied with Aunt Wu's attitude.
"Okay, just think that I'm telling you in vain. No matter what, Mr. Xue should be here in a few days.
"You also know that the old lady values this elder brother the most.
"What if he wants to entrust his granddaughter to the old lady? Do you think the old lady will agree?"
After Grandma Dong finished speaking, she left Grandma Wu who was deep in thought, turned around and walked out.
Tingxiu heard the footsteps and quickly turned around and ran away.
Before Dongzi could come out from behind the tree, he saw another little maid emerge from behind the tree not far away.
Aunt Dong stepped forward and asked in a low voice, "Is it done?"
"Don't worry, Tingxiu heard it and she just left."
Aunt Dong was very satisfied when she heard this. She took out a small piece of broken silver from her arms and gave it to the little maid and said, "Take it to buy some sweets!"
"Thank you, Mammy. If you have any errands in the future, just call me." The little maid smiled happily, took the silver and put it into her arms, saluted Mammy Dong, and walked away briskly.
Aunt Dong also left in the other direction.
Seeing that Nanny Wu never showed up, Dongzi quickly took the opportunity to run away.
After listening to the conversation between Grandma Dong and Grandma Wu, Tingxiu went back full of concerns.
As soon as he entered the hospital, he was seen by Xue Shanya.
"Where did you go? You didn't even say a word when you left. I've been looking for you for a long time." Xue Shanya was a little unhappy.
But after she finished speaking, Tingxiu didn't rush up to admit her mistake like usual. Instead, she looked like she was in a state of confusion.
Xue Shanya narrowed her eyes slightly, looked at Tingxiu suspiciously and asked, "What happened?"
Tingxiu suddenly came back to her senses and was obviously startled when she saw Xue Shanya standing in front of her.
She hurriedly looked around, pulled Xue Shanya into the room, and after sending everyone else out, she told Xue Shanya exactly what she had just heard.
"Really?" Xue Shanya's eyebrows stood up.
Although she also knew that sometimes Grandma Wu just wanted to get some profit from her.
But first of all, the money she is spending now was given to her by Mrs. Chen when she first came here.
It’s not that I don’t feel bad about spending my own money.
Secondly, she felt that as long as she could successfully marry Chen Jingke, would she still worry about having no money to spend in the future?
The Chen family's huge fortune will not all belong to them in the future.
And since Chen Jingke respects Grandma Wu so much, it would not be a bad thing for him to have a good relationship with Grandma Wu.
Who knew that she was simply being taken advantage of.
Xue Shanya was so angry that she wanted to rush out immediately to find Grandma Wu and confront her.
Tingxiu grabbed her and said, "Girl, please calm down, you can't make a fuss about this!"
"if
If others find out, the girl's reputation will not be preserved! "
"Then I'll just let her treat me like she's being taken advantage of?" Xue Shanya was so angry that her eyes were red.
If it had been before Mrs. Tong came, she would have gone directly to Mrs. Chen to complain.
But now, she was a little unsure whether her great-aunt would believe her or help her.
Tingxiu hurriedly advised: "Girl, just like what Aunt Dong said, let's just wait for the old man to arrive."
Xue Shanya, however, had long lost her previous confidence. She sat down and sighed: "But when I was at home before, my grandfather didn't love me much. Can he help me after he comes?"
"Girl, look what you said.
"The old man is getting old. Although he doesn't particularly love you, he doesn't show partiality to others, right?"
"Besides, if he helps you, he is helping the Xue family. How can the old man not care about this in his heart?"
Tingxiu quickly coaxed Xue Shanya away with a few words.
Thinking about the current situation of my family, without the help of the Chen family, I probably wouldn't be able to survive even a year.
Even she knew about the situation, and it was impossible for the old man not to consider it.
Thinking of this, Xue Shanya breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as she can marry into the Chen family, her future life will be easy.
While Tingxiu was racking her brains to coax Xue Shanya, Dongzi had already run to the door of Shou'an Courtyard and peered in.
The little maid in the yard immediately noticed someone. When she came out and saw Dongzi, she immediately laughed.
The little maid teased him: "What are you doing here? Be careful that Madam Tong will prick you with a needle!"
"I'm not afraid!" Dongzi said in a loud voice first, and then asked in a low voice, "God... is Mrs. Tong recovered from her illness?"
"It's nothing serious anymore." The little maid said, "But the doctor said to let her rest more."
Dongzi's eyes lit up when he heard this and asked, "Can I go in?"
"That's not okay." Seeing his expression darken suddenly, the little maid asked somewhat unbearably, "Are you here to thank Madam Tong?"
"Yes! Sister, just let me in. I promise to be obedient and not make any noise."
"It's not that I won't let you go, it's just that I really can't." The little maid shook her head, "The old lady has ordered that no one is allowed to disturb Mrs. Tong."
As soon as he heard that it was the old lady's order, Dongzi had no choice but to take out the snacks wrapped in a handkerchief from his arms, handed them to the little maid and said: "Good sister, can you help me give this to Lady Tong?" good?"
The maid took it and curiously opened the corner of the veil to take a look, and immediately started laughing.
"I didn't see it, but you are quite thoughtful." The little maid rewrapped the snacks with a smile and put them back in Dongzi's hand. "But Mrs. Tong has no shortage of delicious food at the old lady's side. This one You can take it home and eat it yourself, and be obedient!"
Seeing that it was useless to say anything, Dongzi had no choice but to take back the snacks and go back with regret.
On the way, when he opened the handkerchief and wanted to eat, he realized that the snacks had been broken while he was running here.
No wonder the young lady just now refused to help him give the snacks to Mrs. Tong.
Thinking that there were still so many snacks at home, Dongzi ate the snacks in the handkerchief in a few mouthfuls and ran home quickly.
