Xue Xuening ordered Biyun to make a pot of tea with a smile on her face, turned around and sighed, "I heard that Xie... my sister-in-law was grounded by the Marquis, so I went to have a look, but I never thought that she would be sarcastic and sarcastic towards me."
Xiao Yinshuang didn't speak, she just stared at Xue Xuening and looked up and down.
Then, a cold snort came from his mouth.
Xue Xuening felt uncomfortable with her gaze, and Biyun just walked in with tea.
She took the opportunity to stand up, took the tray from Biyun's hand, placed it on the table, poured a cup of tea and pushed it in front of Xiao Yinshuang, before sitting back on the chair.
Xiao Yinshuang suddenly asked: "Sister-in-law, what do you think of Jing'er?"
A flash of panic flashed in Xue Xuening's eyes, but she quickly calmed down and replied, "The Marquis is a humble and gentle man, loyal to the emperor and patriotic."
"Yes, Jing'er is good, but he is a married woman after all. It is better for my sister-in-law to keep a distance from him, so as not to be misunderstood and spread inappropriate words."
Xiao Yinshuang really didn't understand how Jing'er and Xue Xuening could be together. She was his eldest sister-in-law!
Xue Xuening's face changed drastically when she heard this, and she quickly explained, "My sister-in-law has misunderstood. The Marquis and I are not what you think. There is nothing wrong between us."
"Sister-in-law, it's best not to set your sights on him. There is absolutely no chance between you." Xiao Yinshuang smiled coldly, with contempt in her words.
Xue Xuening's eyes widened in shock, as if she had never seen Xiao Yinshuang looking so aggressive. She gritted her teeth and retorted, "Of course I understand."
"As long as you understand."
After saying that, he lifted his legs and left.
Xue Xuening lost her temper again after Xiao Yinshuang left.
In Qiran courtyard.
After being grounded, Xie Wanyu became more comfortable. She got a fishing rod from somewhere and asked Xiao Tuo to fish.
Suddenly, the fishing rod shook violently, and Xiao Tuo shouted happily, "Mom, I caught a fish!"
Xie Wanyu threw away the bait in her hand and came over to watch with interest. As expected, she saw Xiao Tuoti slipping a palm-sized whitebait.
Zhu Fang also came over and smiled, "The third young master is really awesome."
Only Nanny He stood aside, frowning deeply, feeling that it was inappropriate for the madam to lead the young master to such nonsense.
"Mommy, please stop frowning. There are only a few of us here anyway, and there aren't that many rules."
Xie Wanyu knew that Aunt He thought she should be dignified and heavy in order to behave like a mistress, but she didn't want to be a mistress at all, she just wanted to live a wanton life.
"lady……"
Before Nanny He could say her words of persuasion, Xie Wanyu handed over the fish in her hand with a smile.
"Mommy, I want to eat shark's fin soup. Please tell the kitchen to cook it quickly and help me make some porridge. Peizhi and I are both starving."
"Yes!" Nanny He responded and stepped back.
Xiao Tuo was playing by the lake with a fishhook.
Xie Wanyu was lying on the chaise longue and basking in the sun. The warm sunlight fell on her body, which made her feel particularly comfortable.
She closed her eyes happily.
At this moment, a familiar sound of footsteps came closer and closer.
Xie Wanyu immediately opened her eyes and saw Xiao Jing standing in the distance staring at her, the smile on her lips falling.
Xiao Jing lowered her eyes and walked over. Before she could reach Xie Wanyu, two figures suddenly appeared and stood in front of her.
"I've met my father." Xiao Tuo said with cupped hands.
"I've met the Marquis." Zhufang half-crouched and saluted.
"Get up." Xiao Jing looked a little unhappy, but still had the patience to let the two of them get up.
After the two got up, they still stood in front of him. Xiao Jing lowered her face and shouted, "Get out of the way."
The two of them lowered their heads, not daring to talk to each other, and refused to get out of the way.
Xie Wanyu felt warm in her heart and sat down at the stone table nearby.
"Pei Zhi, you have been playing for a long time. It's time to go inside and do your homework."
Then she raised her eyes and looked at Zhu Fang, "Why don't you hurry up and make tea."
The two were hesitant. Seeing Ling Lie's eyes, they could only look back worriedly.
Seeing the person still standing there, Xie Wanyu said, "Master Marquis, why don't you come and sit down?"
Xiao Jing sat opposite her, glanced at Xiao Tuo who stuck his head out and said, "I will give you one last chance. Is this child..."
"No." Xie Wanyu said firmly.
"Then what's going on between you and King Qin?"
No man can accept that his wife is having an affair with another man.
Xiao Jing was already depressed to the limit at this time.
However, Xie Wanyu still looked directly at him without fear and spoke slowly, "Grandma knows more about this matter. Why don't you ask Grandma about it?"
After saying that, she paused for a moment and continued, "Although I have a three-year agreement with Mr. Marquis, I have never done anything out of the ordinary."
"So?" Xiao Jing asked.
Xie Wanyu pursed her lips and said, "The relationship between Prince Qin and me is innocent. If the Marquis doesn't believe it, just find someone to investigate."
"Then what's going on with you?"
Xiao Jing finally couldn't hold back her anger.
"you do not need to know."
Xie Wanyu refused indifferently.
Xiao Jing's face was ashen, and she stood up suddenly, looking down at her, "I hope you can give me a reasonable explanation, otherwise don't blame me for not thinking about the relationship between husband and wife."
Xie Wanyu raised her head slightly and met his eyes. She smiled lightly at the corner of her mouth and said, neither humble nor arrogant, "When did the Marquis ever care about the relationship between husband and wife?"
This sentence successfully stimulated Xiao Jing, making his eyes suddenly cold, and a terrifying murderous aura was about to come out.
Seeing this, Xie Wanyu's heart trembled, but her face remained calm, "Since Lord Marquis is here to question me today, I should also make it clear that you and I will never have anything to do with each other in this life!"
Xiao Jing stared at her, as if he was judging whether her words were true or false. After a long time, he restrained his murderous intent and said, "Remember what you said today!"
"Yeah!" Xie Wanyu nodded.
Xiao Jing turned around and strode away.
Xie Wanyu's heart beat rapidly when she heard the footsteps getting further and further away.
She clutched her chest and panted for a moment before returning to normal. She turned to look at Xiao Tuo aside and waved, "Come here."
"Mother. Are you leaving the Xiao family?"
He knew that his mother didn't like it and didn't belong here.
"Don't worry, if mother leaves here, she will definitely take you with her." Xie Wanyu reached out and touched his head.
Xiao Tuo's eyes were red, "When I grow up, I will definitely honor you."
"Okay, let's go see if Nanny He is ready for the meal."
She took Xiao Tuo's hand and walked towards the small kitchen.
After Xiao Jing left Qiran Courtyard, she walked straight towards Tai'an Hall.
Mrs. Xiao saw him coming in, with a smile on her face, "Why do you have time to come here today?"
"My grandson wants to ask his grandmother something."
Xiao Jing's face was expressionless, and his heart was already in turmoil. Unspeakable pain filled his body, making him want to strangle Xie Wanyu to death.
Mrs. Xiao saw that his expression was wrong and asked tentatively, "What do you want to ask?"
Xiao Jing suppressed the turbulence in her heart, "I just came from Qiran Courtyard and wanted to ask my grandmother what happened to Xie Wanyu and King Qin."
Mrs. Xiao was stunned, "Who are you listening to? Is it that bitch Xue Xuening?"
"Grandma, please tell your grandson first what is going on, Xie Wanyu and King Qin..." Xiao Jing asked trying to control her emotions.
