Chapter 9 Outsiders Don’t Get Involved
“Think about it, I should listen to my grandmother and mother. Tomorrow is not a good day, and it’s not suitable to go out.” He wants to save his leg.
Xiao Miluo raised his eyebrows. The third brother was afraid that he was confused: “Grandmother and mother didn’t stop you from going out.”
Giving a blank look to Xiao Miluo who was dragging his feet, Xiao Jingshen explained: “Grandmother and mother asked me to listen to Zhu Xuntao. I listened to Zhu Xuntao and didn’t go out. Isn’t that listening to my grandmother and mother? There’s nothing wrong with it.”
“Yes, the weather is bad tomorrow, don’t go out.” Old Lady Sheng held Xiao Jingshen’s hand tightly.
Xuansun is a treasure, and grandson is also a treasure.
It’s just a broken leg, not a life, she also feels distressed.
It’s just that Jingshen’s problem of disrespecting Taotao should be cured!
After taking a look at the bright weather outside, Xiao Miluo nodded. Tomorrow's sun will definitely be brighter than today's. It will be very inconvenient to go out under such a bright sun.
Zhu Xuntao looked at the weather suspiciously. OK, OK, it's OK if the weather is bad. It has nothing to do with her anyway.
Old Madam Sheng was quite stimulated throughout the day. Fortunately, she had Zhu Xuntao's company. In addition, none of the terrible things Zhu Xuntao said happened yet. Old Madam Sheng's mood improved a lot.
After reluctantly sending Zhu Xuntao away, Madam Sheng called Jiang Yijing to her side and said, "I will tell the old man about this."
Jiang Yijing replied, "I will also tell the Marquis. But my second uncle..."
Xiao Chenliang is the only young master of the fourth generation in the mansion, but he is not Jiang Yijing's grandson but a nephew.
Master Xiao and Madam Sheng had three sons and one daughter in their lifetime. The eldest is Xiao Yuanshan, the second is Xiao Yuanqi, the third is Xiao Yuancheng, and the youngest is Xiao Yanru.
Xiao Yuanshan inherited the Marquis's mansion, Xiao Yuanqi is now the Minister of War, and Xiao Yuancheng did not enter the court as an official, but he is still a famous scholar and teaches in the academy.
Xiao Yanru, the only daughter of the Xiao family, entered the palace as empress and gave birth to the crown prince for the emperor.
Xiao Chenliang is the grandson of the second son Xiao Yuanqi.
Now, except for Old Lady Sheng, the only people who can hear Zhu Xuntao's voice are from Xiao Yuanshan's family. Zhu
Xuntao happened to be Xiao Jingshen's fiancée. If there was any lack of trust between them, Jiang Yijing telling Xiao Yuanqi about Xiao Chenliang would be like the eldest son cursing the second son.
"If there is any problem, just let him ask me." She knew her own son well, and Old Lady Sheng believed that there was still a little trust between the second son and the eldest son.
Old Lady Sheng took the initiative to take over the responsibility, which made Jiang Yijing breathe a sigh of relief.
She was definitely confident in Xiao Yuanqi for other things.
But this involves Xiao Yuanqi's beloved, so the situation is naturally different.
"By the way, tell Yuanqi about the depth of field."
"Yes, mother."
Jiang Yijing did not go directly to Xiao Yuanqi. She told her husband about the situation and let the two brothers solve it themselves.
Not to mention Xiao Yuanqi, even Xiao Yuanshan felt it was amazing and couldn't believe it when he heard such a thing from his wife.
However, his wife would never joke about such a thing. His
nephew would have an accident, but his daughter's situation was not much better. She was deceived and hurt by a poor scholar.
"Brother..." Xiao Yuanqi was calm for a long time, but still couldn't accept it.
Xiao Yuanshan understood Xiao Yuanqi: "Don't force yourself. If your sister-in-law hadn't told me about this, I would have thought it was a far-fetched story."
"Mother means that Chen Liang's matter will not happen for a while, so you don't have to worry too much. On the contrary, Jing Shen's fate will be known tomorrow."
"If what happened to Jing Shen is really as Zhu Xuntao said, you and I should not be careless about Chen An's matter."
Patting his brother's shoulder, Xiao Yuanshan encouraged Xiao Yuanqi: "The boat will straighten itself out when it reaches the bridge head. I will not let the Xiao family get into trouble."
Xiao Yuanqi nodded, and asked his son to send his grandson to his room that night, and the couple took him to sleep with him for one night.
The next day.
"Brother, you have to protect me." Riding on the horse, Xiao Jingshen was filled with bitterness and hatred.
He had decided to listen to Zhu Xuntao and reject Zhao Fangyu, but his father pressed his neck and asked him to go.
Is there any justice?
"Don't worry." Xiao Jingzhan nodded, "You won't be in trouble."
Xiao Jingshen showed a smile that was uglier than crying: "How can I be assured? Brother, can you guarantee that I won't lose even a hair?" Xiao Jingzhan's
face became serious, he patted the horse, and asked Xiao Jingshen to hurry on the road: "Don't act coquettishly, you are not Mi Luo."
Xiao Jingshen: "..." What's wrong with him being a younger brother? Doesn't he have no rights if he is not a younger sister?
Zhu Mansion.
All day long, Zhu Yingyan was waiting for a piece of news, the news that she had been waiting for her whole life.
"Miss."
"What happened?" Seeing the maid coming back, Zhu Yingyan's eyes lit up, "Mr. Xiao San was hunting with others, and was seriously injured and sent back to the Xiao Mansion?"
Rebirth, this God-given miracle actually happened to her, so she must be able to change the regrets of her previous life and have a different life.
"Injured." The maid ran in a hurry and couldn't catch her breath.
"Is he really injured?!" Things developed as she remembered, and this result made Zhu Yingyan's eyes brighten.
She was not dreaming, everything was real!
The maid shook her head and nodded, which made Zhu Yingyan anxious and confused: "What do you mean?"
"What, the son of the minister, Zhao Fangyu, was carried back to the mansion?"
Zhu Xuntao, who received the news at about the same time, was completely numb.
Xiao Jingshen wanted to go for a while, and then not go. Yesterday, he said that the weather was bad and he would not go out. Today, he accepted the invitation. Zhu Xuntao was impatient to know more about him.
Zhu Xuntao didn't care, but her maid Qiuyue was worried for her.
She regarded the Xiao family as her young lady's husband's family, so Xiao Jingshen was naturally her young lady's brother-in-law.
For such a close person, of course, she should pay more attention to the news.
"I heard that when hunting, Master Zhao's horse got frightened and went crazy. Not only did it throw Master Zhao off its back, it also stepped on one of his feet, breaking it."
"The injury is very serious. People say that this injury is difficult to cure."
Zhu Xuntao curled her lips: "He is lucky."
"That's right, fortunately it was the leg that was broken. If he had stepped on other places, he would have died."
Qiuyue nodded. It was a blessing in disguise that this Mr. Zhao did not die.
The master and servant were not talking about the same person, but Zhu Xuntao did not tell Qiuyue so clearly. After all, she could not explain who was the lucky one.
At this time, the maid came to deliver the message: "Second Miss, the Yongjing Marquis's Mansion sent someone to say that the Marquis's wife missed the second miss and wanted to invite the second miss to sit down." Zhu Xuntao
refused: "I heard that the third Mr. Xiao almost had an accident. He must be scared now. It is inappropriate for me to disturb him at this time."
