Xie Wanyu smiled and nodded.
The green grass on the mountainside and the river water made Xie Wanyu feel very good. Now that her grievances with the Xiao family had probably spread, she wanted to see how long the Xiao family could last.
Later in the evening, Nanny He and Zhu Fang were brought over by Xie Ruan. He went home without even having time to drink tea. After all, the two elders of the Xie family were still waiting for news from him.
Aunt He and Zhu Fang knelt down when they saw Xie Wanyu, and they blamed themselves extremely.
"We were locked in a small warehouse. No matter how we shouted, no one let us out." Zhu Fang lost a lot of weight.
"Okay, I don't blame you. Get up quickly." Xie Wanyu raised her hand.
At least these two people would never deceive her under any circumstances, otherwise she might not even have a chance to live.
Zhufang then helped Nanny He to stand up. Nanny He wiped her tears and said, "Old slave, I heard what the eldest young master said. Madam is really suffering."
Xie Wanyu waved her hand, "It's all in the past. There is no need to mention it again. The most important thing for us now is to think about what to eat at night."
Mother He and Zhu Fang were both amused by Xie Wanyu's words.
Suddenly, Xie Wanyu was a little confused, "Where is Xie Fengya?"
"The slaves don't know where the third lady has gone." Zhufang thought seriously and then shook her head.
Xie Wanyu was a little worried at first, but then she felt relieved when she thought of Xie Fengya's cleverness and thought that she could protect herself no matter what.
Furthermore, the Xiao family has suffered a big loss now, who would care about such a third lady.
Thinking of this, Xie Wanyu couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.
For dinner, Grandma He stewed chicken by herself. Dawu raised chickens and ducks in the backyard. They were all fat and strong, but the four of them couldn't finish the chicken.
"Madam, because we are in a hurry, we only have one plate of stewed chicken and one plate of vegetarian dishes." Zhu Fang brought the food up.
They all waited for Xie Wanyu to finish eating before going to eat.
Xie Wanyu looked at it and said, "This is already very good." She was not someone who cared much about food.
As soon as I picked up the chopsticks, I saw Xie Fengya running in.
Her face and body were covered in black ash, and part of her skirt was half burned.
Seeing her in such a mess, Xie Wanyu was shocked, "What did you do?"
Xie Fengya gasped and laughed, then took the teapot on the table and filled it with a sip of tea. Only then did she have the energy to speak, "Fortunately, my mother and I often go to the mountains and fields in Zhuangzi, otherwise I would still I really can’t walk up.”
"Did you walk up Panyun Mountain?" Xie Wanyu asked in surprise.
Xie Fengya nodded. She stood there with her hands on her waist and patted her chest, "I'm really exhausted."
Zhu Fang couldn't help but chuckle, "Miss San came just in time, the food has just been served."
Xie Fengya didn't sit down and panted for a while before saying, "Second sister, do you know what I did?" Her eyes were bright.
"What did you do?" Xie Wanyu asked.
Xie Fengya raised her eyebrows, "Aren't they bullying you? I waited until they left, and then burned down the Xiao family's ancestral hall."
As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned.
Xie Wanyu almost spat out the mouthful of rice she just took in. "You, what did you say?" She wondered if she heard wrong.
Xie Fengya put her hands on her hips and laughed, "You heard that right, I burned down the Xiao family's ancestral hall."
"You, you burned down the Xiao family's ancestral hall?" Xie Wanyu couldn't help laughing.
The rule I have accepted since childhood is that you must not lose your style no matter what, so Xie Wanyu has never thought of this level.
Xie Fengya, on the other hand, can do anything.
Xie Wanyu couldn't help but sigh, if she had been like Xie Fengya in her previous life, taking revenge and resorting to all possible means, would she have been able to live a more free and easy life?
"Second sister, how can you reward me?" Xie Fengya asked.
Normally, Xie Wanyu would have definitely tried to persuade her, telling her what ladies can and cannot do. Burning someone else's ancestral hall would be similar to digging someone's ancestral grave, and it was simply treason.
However, except for the Xiao family.
Xie Wanyu thought for a while, took off a hairpin from her head, and handed it to Xie Fengya, "I'm in a hurry, so I can give you this. This was the one my grandmother wore when she got married. Although the style is a bit older, it's The white hosta is a precious thing."
Xie Fengya didn't choose, and put the hairpin directly on her head, "Thank you, second sister."
After saying that, she sat down and took Xie Wanyu's bowl and chopsticks to eat. She probably had to walk too much, so she devoured her food ravenously.
Zhu Fang was originally the person who disliked Xie Fengya the most. Now that she heard that she had avenged Xie Wanyu, she immediately became happy and beamed with joy. "Slave, please go get the dishes and chopsticks for Madam."
Only Aunt He stood aside, clasping her hands together, "It's a sin, it's a sin, it's really a sin."
Xie Wanyu didn't care about this at all. When she thought about Mrs. Xiao seeing the ancestral hall being burned, she would faint from anger.
But what they did, burning the Xiao family ancestral hall, was not enough.
After dinner, Xie Fengya went back to the side room to rest. Xie Wanyu asked Zhufang and Aunt He to also rest. She picked the candle next to the bed, took out a book at random, and read it.
I just read it for a long time and never turned a page.
Her thoughts have long since drifted away. What she has done is not enough. If she wants to leave the Xiao family, she may need to work harder.
Even if Mrs. Xiao hates Xie Wanyu no more, she will never let her go.
The first is Xie Wanyu’s dowry, and the Xie family’s help.
Thinking of this, Xie Wanyu couldn't help but feel frightened. After Xie Ru'an passed away in her previous life, the Xie family gave her a large amount of money. She was the only legitimate daughter, so she would naturally receive more.
Then the Xiao family became more prosperous. At that time, Mrs. Xiao even bought a boat just to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the lake.
Now it seems that Xie Ruan's death is too coincidental.
In other words, the Xiao family set their sights on Xie Ru'an in order to obtain the Xie family's property? Xie Wanyu was afraid of her own vision.
But seeing that the Xiao family cares so much about their dowry, such a thing is not impossible.
Besides, even if Xue Xuening couldn't figure this out, there was still Xiao Yinshuang, who was a vicious person.
Thinking of this, Xie Wanyu decided to investigate and find out the truth.
But a sudden gust of cold wind stopped her thoughts.
The window was suddenly opened, and Tai Shuqi fell into the room in an extremely embarrassing way.
Xie Wanyu was a little surprised, "What's wrong with you?"
As she spoke, she helped Tai Shuqi up and let him sit safely on the chair.
Tai Shuqi's face was pale and he was wearing black clothes. If Xie Wanyu hadn't touched the sticky blood stains on his body while helping him, she probably wouldn't have thought that he was so seriously injured.
