Chapter Four: The Tree Wants to be Still, But the Wind Doesn't Stop

At that moment, Xue Rou'er knelt down and said: "Rou'er is also at fault, we can't let Jiu Yiniang bear the responsibility alone. Besides, two slaves have died today. If Jiu Yiniang is punished again, I'm afraid it will spread all over the city tomorrow. By then,

Our Xue family is in disgrace!

Now Rou'er doesn't ask for anything else, she just wants to see her mother and tell her that Rou'er hasn't done any dirty things."

There was deep thought in the old lady's eyes, and she touched the Buddhist beads on her left wrist with her right hand...

Xue Rou'er saw no less than four emotions on the old lady's face, shock, coldness, hesitation, and exhaustion.

She didn't know that the old lady had a murderous intention towards her, but this murderous intention turned into nothingness after the change of these four emotions.

"That's all, Rou'er, listen, I can't write two characters of Xue in one stroke." The old lady said tiredly.

Xue Rouer also heard the warning meaning of these words and immediately said: "Grandma, don't worry, it is my granddaughter's blessing to be reincarnated into the Xue family in this life. No matter what happens in the future, my granddaughter will remember these words."

The old lady nodded and said, "Let's go."

Xue Rou'er immediately saluted and left, led by Yu Nu, who ran towards the eldest lady's residence.

And Ling Muran looked at the leaving Xue Rou'er with piercing eyes, thinking a lot. After all, there is a difference between a legitimate concubine, and Xue Rou'er who can talk seems not as unbearable as he imagined. If he can get Xue Li's favor, then he is still willing to marry a legitimate concubine.

female.

"Miss seems to have changed into a different person." Yu Nu said with a smile.

Xue Rouer glanced at her and said, "Remember, they will never bully me from now on."

"Miss, please be patient, you are injured," Yunu shouted.

But Xue Rou'er was particularly anxious. In her previous life, she was an orphan and didn't know what it was like to have parents. In this life, she wanted to have both parents, so she was particularly concerned about this mother.

Relying on her memory, she rushed to the Peony Pavilion, but Yu Nu shouted: "Miss, the eldest lady is no longer staying in the Peony Pavilion."

Xue Rou'er stopped and asked blankly: "Where is the Peony Pavilion? Doesn't Mom have a better place to live?"

Yu Nu's expression was not good, her eyes flickered, and she lowered her head and said, "Miss, you'd better go with me. You'll know when we get there."

Xue Rou'er followed Yu Nu, remembering that during the day when she went to Jiu Yiniang's place to pay her respects, she asked to see her mother, but was beaten up by her for an excuse. Did she deliberately stop herself from seeing her mother?

As she followed Yu Nu further and further, Xue Rouer's face became darker and darker. Isn't this the direction of the laundry pavilion? There are only a few shabby tile-roofed houses there except for a large open space for drying clothes!

When she saw her mother in a shabby tile-roofed house, she finally couldn't help crying, threw herself on the pale and unconscious eldest lady and howled loudly.

"Rou'er... Rou'er..." The eldest lady's pale face showed panic, and she even called her daughter unconsciously.

Xue Rouer took a long time to put away her tears and said angrily: "Who asked my mother to live here?"

Yunu timidly said: "It's the master."

"Dad? Why? I never heard that mother moved out of Peony Pavilion!" Xue Rouer asked.

Yunu said: "Because the third lady has been named a beauty and will come back in a few days, the master has packed up the Peony Pavilion for the third lady to live in. The eldest lady... The eldest lady has been suffering from hemoptysis. They are afraid that

The epidemic was brought here."

"Coughing up blood? Didn't they find a doctor to check on my mother?" Xue Rou'er felt itchy with hatred, and even regretted letting Madam Ninth off so easily. She should have immediately added insult to injury to prevent her from having a better time.

Yunu said: "What the eldest lady has is not an epidemic. I secretly come to take care of you every day. Isn't I doing well now?"

Xue Rou'er touched the eldest lady's forehead. It was very hot. She was having a fever. No wonder she was mumbling unconsciously. The servants said that she hanged herself. Is it true? She looked up and saw a rope loop on the beam, but

Looking at the height and the height of the stool, you can tell that someone held the eldest lady and hoisted her up after she passed out.

That person must be Madam Ninth's confidant, humph, don't let me find him, otherwise he will be cut to pieces.

"Yu Nu, can you carry my mother on your back? I want to take her to my yard." Xue Rouer saw that Yu Nu could easily carry her on her back, so she should be able to carry the eldest lady on her back.

"Don't worry, the only other thing I can do for you is that I am very strong. In the past, I would not have helped the eldest lady, but today, the eldest lady is different from the past, and she will definitely be able to protect the eldest lady." She said and carried the eldest lady on her back and walked towards the Bamboo Garden.

At the same time, Madam Ninth and Xue Lizheng were scolded by the old madam.

"Jiu Feng, even though Li'er dotes on you, you haven't been able to give me a grandson. Don't be too arrogant. You have to remember, it's not that you don't want to repay, it's that the time has not come yet. Go down and reflect on it."

." The old lady said coldly.

Madam Ninth felt depressed and did not dare to disobey, so she had to retreat obediently. When she saw her daughter when she went out, she immediately glared at her and said, "It's all you who can't make Ling Muran fall in love with you."

Xue Qing'er felt a little aggrieved, but did not refute. She said: "Mom, I really saw a ghost today. First there was thunder for no reason, and then the temple was set on fire. Then the man started talking."

Madam Ninth pulled her away before speaking: "Don't worry, my mother must take the position of mistress, and you must marry as the legitimate daughter. We will see, sooner or later I will let those two beauties die."

No burial place."

Xue Qing'er felt much better after hearing this, and returned to Furong Pavilion with Madam Ninth.

Xue Li didn't get any better either, he knelt obediently in front of the old lady.

The old lady said: "I don't care how many women you want to marry, but Xueru is the mistress of the Xue family that I personally selected. How can you favor one over the other? Also, what did Jiufeng say about Xueru's family?"

Xue Li said: "Her natal family declined a year ago, and I am afraid that I am too busy to take care of her anymore."

The old lady said calmly: "Then you can't neglect her because of this. After all, they have been married for fifteen years."

"My son is wrong, he won't be confused anymore." Xue Li knew that the old lady loved him very much and would never really blame him. As long as he behaved well, she would calm down.

Sure enough, the old lady sighed and said: "Get up, I didn't expect that the eldest girl was a blessing in disguise. She actually has a better brain and can talk. This is good, she won't embarrass the Xue family during the hairpin ceremony."

Xue Li said: "Mom, that girl has weird eyes. Could it be a wild ghost? It's better to kill her to avoid causing trouble in the future."

The old lady heard this and said angrily: "Nonsense..."

"Old madam, the housekeeper said that he has something important to tell you." The eldest maid Bixiang came to report.

"Invite him in," the old lady said.

After a while, an old man wearing a navy blue mandarin jacket walked in. When he saw Xue Li, he hesitated and even forgot to salute.

The old lady asked in surprise: "Housekeeper, what's wrong with you?"

The old housekeeper noticed his rudeness, gritted his teeth and said, "I'm sorry." After saying that, he whispered a few words into the old lady's ear.
