Xie Wanyu heard that Mrs. Xiao was "sick" with a doubtful attitude in her eyes.
But as my granddaughter-in-law, I naturally wanted to go and see it.
Xie Wanyu walked to the door and happened to look at Xiao Zhi.
"Pei Zhi, why are you here?" Xie Wanyu asked with a smile.
Xiao Zhi respectfully greeted her, and then said, "My son heard that his mother was back, so he came here to greet his mother."
"You are a filial person, so spare it. I am going to see your grandmother now, why don't you come with me?" Xie Wanyu asked.
Xiao Zhi's eyes lit up and he nodded immediately.
He is willing to be with Xie Wanyu, and no matter where Xie Wanyu takes him, he is willing to follow.
Xie Wanyu smiled and held his hand, and then walked slowly to Tai'antang.
The two of them were talking to each other, "Now your handwriting has improved a lot, but you don't understand what the teacher said?"
Xiao Zhi did not lie, but told the truth, "My son started learning late, so he didn't know much, so he asked the teacher directly in class, and he was happy to tell me."
"That's good." Xie Wanyu nodded, "Did your second brother bully you?"
"Not really." After Xiao Zhi answered, he immediately lowered his head.
Xie Wanyu knew without thinking that Xiao Jinmin thought that he would inherit the throne in the future, so he never looked down on others. It was a pity that Xiao Mingxuan was studying in the Xie family, and he did not dare to provoke him.
He could only bully Xiao Zhi to find a sense of presence.
Xie Wanyu rubbed his head and said, "If someone bullies you, just bully him back. You are relying on the power of the Xiao family's mistress. Let's see whose power they are fighting!"
She said domineeringly.
Xiao Zhi was shocked by Xie Wanyu's momentum. He nodded heavily, "My child has taken note of it."
Nanny Feng, who was leading the way, was particularly unhappy when she heard this, but she couldn't stop her. Because Mrs. Xiao had said something, it was rare for Xie Wanyu to come back, so they all tried not to provoke her.
That's why Xie Wanyu can act recklessly here.
Tai'an Hall.
Mrs. Xiao lay wilted on the bed, as if she was about to die.
"Granddaughter-in-law, please give my regards to grandma." Xie Wanyu saluted hurriedly after entering.
Xiao Zhi also said in a decent manner, "Great-grandson Peizhi, I would like to pay my respects to my great-grandmother."
"Yes." Mrs. Xiao raised her hand to signal them to get up, and then opened her dry lips, but she couldn't say a word, and her eyes were all black and blue.
Xie Wanyu was surprised. After all, Mrs. Xiao was so lively yesterday. Why, overnight, she seemed to be giving out more energy and taking in less energy.
At this time, Xiao Yinshuang walked in, holding a medicine bowl in his hand, "Grandma is so ill, why did you come here?" The family invited Xie Wanyu, the giant Buddha, back, and Xiao Yinshuang was already very angry. Shun, immediately got angry.
Xie Wanyu looked at her innocently, and then asked in confusion, "I'm not a doctor. If I come early, my grandmother won't get sick?"
"You..." Xiao Yinshuang was speechless.
"Okay." After Mrs. Xiao said this, she coughed again.
"Grandma, you must take care of yourself." After Xie Wanyu said that, she took off the kerchief on Mrs. Xiao's head, put it in the basin to wet it herself, and then wiped Mrs. Xiao's cheeks.
Half of the black hair at the moment was rubbed off.
Xiao Zhi was standing next to Xie Wanyu, so he could see it very clearly. He covered his mouth and couldn't help but chuckle.
Aunt Feng hurriedly snatched the handkerchief from Xie Wanyu's hand and placed it on Mrs. Xiao's forehead, "I know Madam is being filial, but it's up to the slaves to do these things."
Xie Wanyu sighed, "Grandma's health is getting worse and worse."
"My health is getting worse day by day. There is nothing more than worrying about this big family." Mrs. Xiao said with a sigh.
Xie Wanyu nodded, "My granddaughter-in-law knows what grandma is worried about. Don't worry, we, the whole family, will not be worried about." She grabbed Mrs. Xiao's warm hand, "I am Mrs. Hou after all. , if anyone in the Xiao family dares to disobey, I will take care of it in my own way."
Mrs. Xiao's eyes widened, "What?"
But soon, she lay there softly again, "You must convince others with your virtue." Then she looked at Aunt Feng.
Nanny Feng immediately brought the tray.
The tray contained the private seal of the Hou Mansion, a pair of keys, and a box of the servant's deed.
Xie Wanyu only glanced at it but did not take it, "Grandma is still young, is she really going to give up her life?"
"I'm not feeling well, so I'll leave it to you, Wanyu." After Mrs. Xiao finished speaking, she coughed again.
Xie Wanyu originally suspected that Mrs. Xiao was suddenly ill, but now it seems that she is pretending to be ill. The main reason for pretending to be ill is to continue to hand over the housekeeper's affairs to Xie Wanyu.
Thinking of this, Xie Wanyu couldn't help but smile. She really did everything she could.
Now the ancestral hall needs to be repaired, and their delicacies also need to be supplied. Isn't this obvious? Why do they still need to ask Xie Wanyu to lend money to it?
If Xie Wanyu was so stupid back then, maybe she would really take it.
"Ahem." Xie Wanyu coughed violently, and the coughing was so heartbreaking that Xiao Yinshuang couldn't help but take a few steps back, as if Xie Wanyu had some incurable disease.
Mrs. Xiao was stunned.
After a long while, Xie Wanyu stopped coughing and said, "Grandma, it's not like you don't know that my body is severely poisoned. Although I have been cured by a miracle doctor, the medicine is only three parts poisonous, and my body cannot withstand it."
This left Mrs. Xiao speechless. After all, everything Xie Wanyu said made sense.
"What should we do?" Mrs. Xiao said weakly.
Xie Wanyu took out three hundred taels of silver notes from her sleeves and said, "Grandma, this is the money to repair the ancestral hall. Take it first. Although I am unable to manage the house, I can still contribute some money."
Madam Xiao didn't know how to force Xie Wanyu. Seeing her take out the banknote, Madam Xiao smiled. She couldn't help patting Xie Wanyu's hand, "Among these children, you are the most filial."
Xie Wanyu smiled slightly and then lowered her head.
"It's just this housekeeper..." Nanny Feng said.
Xie Wanyu looked at Xiao Yinshuang and said, "The eldest sister was also the mistress of the house when she was in her husband's family. Now it is probably easy for her to be the housekeeper."
"I don't care." Xiao Yinshuang crossed her arms, looking like she was watching a show.
Xie Wanyu nodded, "That's right. The eldest sister is a concubine after all, and a child raised by my aunt cannot teach any rules."
"What nonsense are you talking about? I'll take care of it, but Xie Wanyu, don't regret it!"
Xiao Yinshuang couldn't stand the excitement and immediately took the private seal, "I can tell you, I have never been afraid of the housekeeper or anything else."
Mrs. Xiao closed her eyes and waved.
She really felt that she had spoiled Xiao Yinshuang, otherwise she would not have been so stupid without knowing it.
"Since grandma is tired, grandson-in-law will take her leave first." Xie Wanyu nodded slightly, then pulled Xiao Zhi and walked out with satisfaction.
But he felt that there was a pair of eyes behind him that were staring at him fiercely.
