Chu Xiaoxiao was thrown into a book, reincarnating as a cannon fodder meant to be drowned shortly after birth. Outraged, she saved herself and vowed to change her family’s doomed fate.
...Yuan Xuyang's plan was ruined by Min and he wanted to strangle her to death.
But there were some things he didn't tell her, and he didn't dare tell her. His plan was to wait until his son became the head of the Ye family, then he would get rid of Min and marry Liang Qixiu as his wife.
This was a plan he had discussed with his parents. Liang Qixiu was coming back today, and he had a rare opportunity to win her over, but he didn't expect it to be ruined.
Just as he was getting angry, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his chest, and then he spat out a mouthful of blood. He immediately felt something was wrong, and pointed at Min: "You vicious woman, you actually poisoned me?"
Min hated him for hitting her, and refused to defend herself. Instead, she said triumphantly, "So what? If you dare to do something worse than an animal, I will kill you."
The servants in the room were all dumbfounded. They didn't expect that the eldest wife was so cruel that she actually poisoned the master.
This could be fatal.
Within ten breaths, Min also vomited blood.
Servants: “…”
Did the first wife poison herself? Did she want to die on the same month and year as the master, even if she was not born on the same month and year as the master?
Oh my god! No wonder they say women have the most vicious hearts. It’s absolutely true. The real example is right in front of us.
When the master and mistress of the Yuan family arrived, Yuan Xuyang and Min were already dead. All the maids and servants could testify that it was the eldest wife Min who poisoned the eldest son.
The person died, and the old couple of the Yuan family were very sad. They seemed to have aged more than ten years in an instant.
Liang Qixiu returned to Ye's house to wash and change clothes. The hatred in her heart was reduced a little. Yuan Xuyang was definitely dead this time. Min was not a good person either. She had said a lot of bad things to her in the past.
When he heard that she was going to be a concubine in the Ye family, he mocked her to her face and said many unpleasant things, wishing he could force her to death.
At that time, she was only thinking about revenge and tried her best to endure everything. Now that Min died in her hands, it can be regarded as the price she paid for her bad words.
Not long after she came back, the old lady of the Ye family sent someone to call her over.
She knew why. The old lady must want to know whether she had seen Master Ming Wu.
Knowing that the Ye family was a close friend of her grandfather, she had nothing to hide. Even if the old lady didn't send someone to call them, she would go over and tell them.
The Ming family is not only the enemy of the Liang family, but also the Ye family. Only by joining forces can they take revenge as soon as possible.
After meeting the old lady of the Ye family, the first and second wives, and Mrs. Lan, Liang Qixiu knelt on his knees and kowtowed to everyone.
The old lady asked the maid beside her to help her up: "Qi Xiu! You are pregnant, there is no need to be so polite."
The Second Madam looked at her and said, "No one in the family blames you, so don't blame yourself. Qi'er is too young to go to the military camp. I'm thinking about keeping him for another three years, and sending him out for training when he grows taller."
With tears falling down his face, Liang Qixiu nodded to show his agreement.
The old lady of the Ye family stood up and took her hand to comfort her: "Child, don't be sad, it will all pass."
The eldest lady also advised: "You are pregnant, don't be too sad. What does Master Ming Wu say? Is he willing to help you?"
Lan's face rarely showed a smile: "With the recommendation of the Imperial Master, there will be no problem. Xiao'er was arranged by the Imperial Master to live in a good family. She took good care of him and even brought back a little girl."
Liang Qixiu knew that she was telling him that Ye Tuxiao was fine and had been taken back.
"Yes! Master Ming Wu agreed and told me to wait patiently, and he would give me a satisfactory result. He also gave me a golden hairpin containing poison, which I used to make Master Yuan and his wife kill each other." Liang Qixiu took off the golden hairpin on her head and showed it to the old lady of the Ye family.
The old lady took the golden hairpin and looked at it in her hand. "The Ming family is so sinful! They forced a bastard into this state. I don't know what the Ming family did to him.
Ming Wuye's wife and daughter are missing. Is there something fishy going on? If someone wants to rebel, he must force the other person to death. Qixiu! Keep this golden hairpin carefully and keep it with you to save your life.
Originally, you should have been raised in luxury, but you didn't expect that your family would be framed and wrongly killed, and you would be disfigured beyond recognition.
From now on, you should stay at home and not go anywhere. Wait until the matter of the Ming family is settled before you make plans."
Speaking of this, Liang Qixiu knelt down with a plop and kowtowed to the old lady.
"What are you doing?"
"Old lady! Qixiu licked her face and had an unreasonable request."
"you say."
The old lady wanted to help him up, but Liang Qixiu refused and knelt stubbornly.
"After I give birth, tell everyone that I died of complications during childbirth. Qixiu will no longer be able to stay in the Ye family. Before sending Qi'er to the military camp, I will also find a reason for him to go into hiding.
He is not a member of the Ye family, but a member of the Liang family. Regardless of whether the Liang family's case can be redressed, the Liang family cannot be left without successors. Qixiu is sorry for the Ye family, and even more sorry for the child in her belly."
The eldest lady looked at Liang Qixiu who was crying and knew why she did this. Only if she died, people would not remember the concubine of the second room of the Ye family.
Only if Liang Qixiu can live honestly with his own identity, and only if Qier has a promising future can she continue the bloodline of the Liang family.
It is really difficult for a woman who has been deceived and bears a family blood feud to survive.
The Second Madam sighed and helped Liang Qixiu up: "Don't cry, you are already weak and you are pregnant. You have a heavy burden on your shoulders, you must take good care of yourself."
The old lady was silent for a moment, then nodded and agreed: "Okay, I'll do as you say."
"Thank you!" Liang Qixiu choked up and stroked his belly, "I will take good care of the baby and let him be born healthy."
“You should take care of yourself more.”
The old lady patted Liang Qixiu's back with heartache. This child was not much older than her grandson, but he had endured suffering that many people could hardly imagine.
"Yes, I will take good care of myself. I want to make the Liang family stand tall in the capital again." When talking about this, Liang Qixiu felt full of energy. "I want to repair the tombs of the Liang family and take back the silver from the Yuan family."
Hearing this, all the women in the room laughed, and the atmosphere suddenly became much more relaxed.
The second master of the Ye family ran out to look for the friend who taught him how to act and gave him advice, but he couldn't find him after searching the entire royal capital.
He asked many people and walked many streets, but still could not get any information. He remembered that his friend had a yard at the edge of the south city, so he hurried over and found the gate was locked.
After asking the people living next door to the yard, he found out that the yard did not belong to his friend at all, but was rented by him.
He went to the restaurants, teahouses, and art studios that the two of them often went to to ask, but people looked at him as if he were a fool.
"Second Master Ye! Didn't you say that man was your friend? We don't know him either. How could we have the honor of meeting him, your friend?"
"Yes! Every time that guy named Chang Sanye comes, he says he is your friend. We just entertain him well and don't pay attention to anything else."
"No way? Don't you know who he is? Where does he live?"
The second master of the Ye family: "......"
I said I don’t know, do you believe me?
It seems that he was really deceived.
