The eldest young master of the Xie family, Xie Xianyu, was like a spring breeze and a graceful orchid—refined, elegant, and, rarest of all, blessed with a compassionate heart.
A year ago, h...
In the past, whenever the young master was unhappy, he would always look for his cousin.
Xie Xianyu looked out the window, only to see that it was already dark outside. She had probably gone to bed by this time. There was a drizzle outside. It was late at night and the dew was heavy. She would have to take a long detour to get here, and it would take her half an hour to walk.
He was silent for a while, then said calmly, "Forget it."
Qing'an scratched his head. Is he bored?
Then why did you rush here immediately this afternoon when you heard that there was a thief in your cousin's house?

That night, Wutongxuan was not peaceful.
"Master, I really didn't have an affair with Yuan Zhao. It was that little bitch Xu Wanruo who deliberately framed me!"
Xie Kun raised his hand and slapped him again: "You still dare to quibble! The evidence is irrefutable, do you think I'm a fool? Your personal sachet was even found on that bastard. I underestimated you, but you dared to betray me!"
The third wife was beaten so badly that her face was bruised and swollen, and there was blood at the corners of her mouth. Her eyes were blurred with tears, but she was in a mess. She was beaten to the ground, but she got up again, grabbed Xie Kun's clothes, and knelt down to beg.
"That sachet isn't mine. That bitch Xu Wanruo usually makes sachets for me, but that sachet is hers. She deliberately stuffed it into Yuan Zhao's body to frame me!"
"Then why did Yuan Zhaotu show up here of no reason? How could he have come in without your permission? And what about Zhang Pozi and Cuifeng? They're both your trusted confidants. They're not only serving you, but they're also here to help you!"
The Third Madam was trembling all over, not knowing whether she was angry or afraid. She gritted her teeth and finally told the truth: "I invited him here. I just wanted to give Xu Wanruo to him. For Yun'er's marriage and Rui'er's future, I just wanted to take this opportunity to win over the Yongchang Marquisate."
After hearing this, Xie Kun hesitated in doubt. He also found it strange. He had heard of Yuan Zhaotu's reputation as a lecher, but he had never heard that his taste was so unique that he liked middle-aged women.
"It was that bitch Xu Wanruo! She turned the tables! She slandered me! If you don't believe me, just ask Master Yuan."
Xie Kun kicked her again in the heart: "You stupid woman, you're still asking Yuan Zhao? Yuan Zhao got beaten up right now, I'm lucky he didn't tear me apart! You idiot, you stole the chicken but ended up losing the rice. You can't even beat a little girl. You've lived all these years in vain!"
The Third Madam fell to the ground, holding her chest, her face twisted with hatred. Xu Wanruo, that conscienceless little bitch, she would make her die sooner or later!

Wanruo had a rare good night's sleep.
I had a dreamless night and woke up in the morning to a sweet smell in the air.
After resolving some issues, she felt relieved and at ease. Moreover, Xie Xianyu finally didn't look for her again yesterday.
Judging from the looks of it, he was probably just a little excited the first two days because he had just arrived. He should have been bored after a year, so how could he be so abnormal?
As Su Yue was dressing her, she said, "I heard that the Third Madam suddenly fell ill and said she needed to recuperate and not allow anyone to disturb her. But I secretly heard that the Third Master had ordered her to be confined to her house. I finally felt relieved! What a pity that she was only confined to her house!"
"After all, the Third Madam gave birth to a son and a daughter for the Third Master. Now she is the legal wife, so she cannot be easily divorced. That matter would be shameful, and the Xie family also has to maintain its reputation, so it will not be made public. Besides, the Third Master may not believe everything."
"That's true," Su Yue sighed, "Then when the Third Madam is released from her confinement, she will definitely not let this young lady off."
"When I did it, I never thought of asking her to forgive me. When she sold me to Yuan Zhao, she never thought of letting me live. No matter what, she will not let me go." Wanruo's eyes turned cold.
"Won't the girl's life be even more miserable in the future?" Su Yue was very worried.
Wan Ruo pursed her lips: "So the Xie family can't stay any longer."
Wanruo took out a small locked box from the drawer, opened it with the key, and found a stack of land deeds and banknotes quietly inside.
All of this was her father's property. Wanruo was intelligent since childhood, and her father taught her how to manage accounts and identify medicinal herbs from a very young age. After her parents passed away, she was in charge of the family accounts.
A year ago, her father passed away suddenly. Ji Li couldn't wait to unite the clansmen to seize their family property. She fled with her brother in the middle of the night and naturally took away the family property. That was why Ji Li was so anxious to catch them and even reported to the police.
If Xie Xianyu had not stepped in and allowed Wanruo to live in the Xie family as a cousin, the Xu family would definitely not give up.
It’s a pity that she is a girl and cannot support herself. Ajin is also young and will eventually be at the mercy of others.
But she refused to accept her fate and was unwilling to give in!
She took a deep breath and closed the box.
Wanruo went to Shou'an Hall. There was a special small kitchen in the old lady's yard. Wanruo usually came to this small kitchen early in the morning and personally prepared medicinal food for the old lady.
