Xiao Jing looked at Xue Xuening, but did not say a word. Instead, she said to Xie Wanyu, "My eldest sister-in-law has been in a bad mood recently. As a younger sibling, can't you bear with me?"
He didn't care about the reason at all and was full of blame towards Xie Wanyu.
Xie Wanyu knew that he would be unreasonable, so she was not angry, "Since Lord Marquis thinks I should be more tolerant, I will forget about it."
As if she was being generous, Xue Xuening immediately said, "You..."
"However, Lord Marquis, I must thoroughly investigate the matter of my poisoning." Xie Wanyu said loudly.
Before Xiao Jing could react, Mrs. Xiao had already spoken, "It's been so long, and there's nothing to be found. Listen to my grandmother and forget it. Now the most important thing is to find a doctor for treatment."
Xie Wanyu said to Xiao Jing, "Although it has been a long time, it is not impossible to find out." She stretched out her green-white fingers, "It's just two things. First, the chronic poison will make it impossible for me to live. In a few years, if I die, who will benefit? Secondly, I am confused about the matter of giving birth control medicine. If I can't give birth to a child, who will benefit?"
She pretended to be confused.
Mrs. Xiao unconsciously glanced at Xue Xuening, this matter was obvious.
Xiao Jing also glanced at Xue Xuening, and then said, "How can this matter be so easy to investigate?"
"Sister-in-law, you are also a mother. Who is so vicious that you want to prevent me from giving birth to a child?" Xie Wanyu also pretended to be sad and wiped her eyes, "Fortunately, the Marquis does not have a concubine, otherwise this would be the end of the world. There is no need to resort to underhanded tactics, and at first glance, it is the work of a jealous and competitive woman."
Xue Xuening's face froze and she was speechless.
Xiao Jing frowned.
"My life is really miserable." Xie Wanyu sighed, and then secretly glanced at Xiao Jing. She made it so obvious that he could guess it.
Madam Xiao had thought of it from the beginning, but now that she saw Xie Wanyu saying this, her face became even more ugly.
At first, her mistake allowed Xue Xuening to survive, but now it is good that the grandson's daughter-in-law is unable to have a child. Not to mention, if Xie Wanyu dies, the only connection between the Xiao family and the Xie family will be severed.
Given the current situation of the Xie family, it would be difficult for them to monopolize Xie Wanyu's dowry.
But now the Hou Mansion cannot make ends meet, and Xie Wanyu's dowry is so huge that it can support three generations of the Xiao family. Mrs. Xiao is calculating it bit by bit.
"Brothers and sisters, don't be too sad. Now that things have come to this, we should have made preparations in advance. Brother Xuan and Min'er are still young, so you have to make plans for them." Xue Xuening rolled her eyes and said.
Xie Wanyu laughed angrily, "My elder sister-in-law is right. It won't be too late for me to catch the person who harmed me and cut him into pieces before I start planning for those two boys."
Mrs. Xiao saw that Xie Wanyu didn't give in at all, knowing that nothing she said would be of any use, and if she kept talking, there was no guarantee that Xie Wanyu wouldn't be suspicious of others, so she made an excuse and said, "I'm a little tired and need to rest. You all can go back. "
Originally, I was going to introduce Pei'er to Xiao Jing today, but I could only do it in a few days.
Xie Wanyu had already finished her words, and naturally she would not stay any longer. She stood up and nodded, "Granddaughter-in-law, please leave." After saying that, she took the lead and walked out.
Now she is not in a hurry to let Xue Xuening be defeated so quickly. She wants to take revenge slowly. The debt she owed in her previous life must be paid back bit by bit.
West courtyard.
Xue Xuening's face turned pale, "This bitch, scolding me openly and secretly, seems to be living too comfortably."
"Madam, please don't be angry. We have a way to tease her. After all, the Marquis's heart is with you." Biyun said with a smile.
"It's true. By the way, the eldest princess's mansion will hold a chrysanthemum appreciation banquet in a few days. When the time comes, I will have a way to make her..."
Xue Xuening was making calculations with a vicious look on her face. When she looked up, she saw Xiao Jing standing at the door.
Her face changed and her eyes immediately turned red. She leaned against the bed and twitched, as if she had been greatly wronged.
Xiao Jing was surprised just now. It was the first time he saw Xue Xuening's vicious look, but he felt that he had seen it wrong. Xue Xuening was the weakest person.
"What are you doing here, Mr. Jing? It would be better to let me be bullied to death by your wife." She turned around and did not look at Xiao Jing.
Xiao Jing approached her, and just as she was about to coax her out of habit, she remembered the purpose of her coming.
He said in a flash, "Let me ask you, did you put the poison on her body?"
Xue Xuening was twitching. When she heard this, she paused for a moment, then turned to look at Xiao Jing, "Mr. Jing, are you doubting me?"
Xiao Jing put her hands behind her back and said, "No one is a fool, and the Xie family is not a vegetarian. If you are found guilty, I may not be able to protect you."
"Jing Lang, you are talking so loudly to me like this. You said that you hate her so much, and now you are talking so loudly to me for her." Xue Xuening looked grief-stricken.
Xiao Jing closed her eyes helplessly, "I'll ask you one last time whether it was you who did it."
"Why do you care so much about Xie Wanyu? Yes, you always go to see Min'er these days and you have to meet her. What's wrong? Have you been in love for a long time?" Xue Xuening said this, her voice became sharp.
"You are simply unreasonable." Xiao Jing's eyes widened. It was the first time he saw Xue Xuening's mean expression. "I have always felt that you are different from the women in the mansion. You are gentle and virtuous, and you understand my heart best. Now it seems that you are different from those jealous women!"
Being said like this, Xue Xuening had already lost her mind.
"Since you think it was me who did it, why bother to ask? What? Do you want to avenge that bitch? Come on, just come and kill me." After that, she stretched out her white neck.
Xiao Jing pointed at her and was so angry that she couldn't speak.
Then he walked away.
For the first time, the two people had a heated argument and broke up unhappy.
Biyun was frightened by such a scene. Xiao Jing left for a long time before she came back to her senses.
"Madam, how can you argue with Mr. Hou like this?" Biyun helped Xue Xuening sit down, and then asked cautiously.
Xue Xuening's chest heaved violently, "How can you blame me? He questioned me because of that bitch Xie Wanyu." The only way she could survive in the Hou Mansion was to rely on Xiao Jing's feelings.
If Xiao Jing was pushed into a hurry, wouldn't he take the initiative to push it to Xie Wanyu?
Since Xue Xuening entered Mrs. Xiao's room, it was as if she had fallen into Xie Wanyu's trap. She saw where Pei'er came from and knew that she was the concubine arranged by Mrs. Xiao for Xiao Jing. She immediately felt sour in her heart. After being cursed by Xie Wanyu overtly and covertly, she had already lost control.
It was precisely because of this that she failed to control her emotions, so she quarreled with Xiao Jing.
Now, Xue Xuening reacted belatedly. She wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and sniffed, "In two hours, you tell the Marquis that I fainted."
"Yes, I have written it down." Biyun said with joy on his face, "If Lord Marquis knew about it, he would come over to see you regardless."
