"I really don't understand. Could it be that Meng Yuheng cast some kind of unholy spell on you? Otherwise, how could he have bewitched you to this point, and made you so completely devoted and loyal to him?"
At this moment, Jiang Mianmian said in surprise:
[Oh! Could this be...?]
Hearing the voice, Li Tingxue and Shen Xiuyan quickly turned around and looked at Jiang Mianmian at the same time, thinking:
Come on, mother, what's going on? Can't you see that we two are already listening with our ears perked up, eagerly waiting to hear what's going on?
However, what responded to them was a speechless silence. After a long while, Jiang Mianmian slowly spoke:
[Perhaps... this is the so-called power of the plot! ]
Li Tingxue and Shen Xiuyan: "..."
Upon hearing this, Li Tingxue and Shen Xiuyan looked at each other, speechless for a moment.
Li Tingxue sighed and muttered helplessly, "Alas, if it's really like what mother said, then it would be more reliable to say that he was bewitched!"
If they were poisoned, they could find a Gu Master to help Xiao Si remove the poison, but this was a completely uncontrollable and mysterious plot force, so what could ordinary people like them do? Li Tingxue was a little worried at the moment, and she kept thinking about these questions in her mind.
Suddenly, as if she thought of something, she turned her head abruptly, her gaze falling straight on Jiang Mianmian. A hint of hope appeared in her originally helpless eyes.
Li Tingxue muttered to herself: She and her sister-in-law were inexplicably possessed by someone else. Could it be that this powerful plot force was at work?
Moreover, since her mother-in-law has the ability to save her and her younger siblings from danger, can she also fight against this terrible plot force?
Li Zhizhou stood up with a dejected look on his face and said to Li Tingxue, "Sister, I'm going home quietly. I'm leaving now!"
He raised his head, looked at Li Tingxue weakly, and then said in a slightly hoarse voice:
"Sister, I want to go home and calm down first. I won't stay here with you any longer. I'll be leaving first."
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone watched Li Zhizhou staggering towards the door with unsteady steps, as if he was drunk.
As they watched him walk away, they all knew that from today on, Li Zhizhou would probably fall into a long period of depression. However, he seemed to have made some progress; at least he wouldn't be as irritating to his father as before.
…………
Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, two more days had passed. It was a sunny day, and Jiang Mianmian and Li Tingxue, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, were sitting in the courtyard again, with the adorable little Le'an by their side.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law sat around the stone table, leisurely sipping fragrant tea and happily chatting about family matters.
"By the way, Tingxue! How is your younger brother now? Is he feeling better?" Jiang Mianmian asked curiously while leisurely eating melon seeds.
Li Tingxue's lips curled up slightly, revealing a gratified smile as she replied:
"He's become a lot more honest lately. My mom said his brain suddenly seemed to open up. He's no longer foolishly saying good things for that person. He seems to have changed a lot."
Hearing this, Jiang Mianmian couldn't help but chuckle and said, "Well! This looks pretty good, pretty good."
Li Tingxue frowned slightly and said with some concern:
"That being said, my mother is still a little worried. He's been very quiet these past few days, completely unlike his usual boisterous self. She feels uneasy and uncomfortable!"
"Hahaha……"
After laughing, Jiang Mianmian waved her hand nonchalantly and comforted her, "Hey, tell your mother not to worry too much! After all, she's just a child. It's natural for her to feel like the sky is falling after suffering such a small setback.
It's okay, let him experience this kind of thing a few more times in the future, he'll get used to it and naturally become stronger!"
Li Tingxue: “…”
Hearing this, Li Tingxue was speechless for a moment, not knowing what to say next.
