County Magistrate Ma even saw the coldness that flashed across Doudou's eyes. He suddenly thought of something and his expression suddenly changed.
"No need to repeat myself. I will remember everything Master Lian said to me. I will behave myself and will not bother you again. Goodbye."
Before Xie Yunjiao could react, County Magistrate Ma disappeared in a flash.
Xie Yun raised her eyebrows and looked at Doudou beside her: "Doudou, why don't you explain it properly?"
Doudou blinked as if she didn't understand what Xie Yunjiao was saying and hugged Xie Yunjiao and acted coquettishly: "Mom, I forgot it myself, otherwise why would I ask him?
I'm so hungry, can you make me something to eat? I want to eat glutinous rice balls with red bean filling."
"Where's the sesame filling? Do you want to eat it?" Xie Yunjiao scratched Doudou's nose, thinking that the child has grown up and can still keep secrets from his mother.
"Yes, yes, yes. I also want the one with peanut filling." Doudou said.
"Peanuts?" Butler Lian looked at Doudou curiously.
"What's wrong? Butler Lian, there are no peanuts at home?" Xie Yunjiao felt something was wrong when she saw Butler Lian's expression.
Lian the housekeeper said hurriedly: "Yes, we have peanuts at home, and my wife likes to eat peanuts very much."
only……
A glimmer flashed in the housekeeper's eyes, but he didn't continue the words that were about to come out of his mouth.
Xie Yunjiao felt something was wrong and silently made a note of the peanut filling.
Later, Xie Yunjiao made glutinous rice balls and sent them to everyone's room. Hearing that Mrs. Lian liked the ones with peanut filling, Xie Yunjiao specially gave her a few more.
When Mrs. Lian was eating dumplings, housekeeper Lian came over. It was unknown what he said to Mrs. Lian, but Mrs. Lian's face lit up with joy.
"Isn't this enough to reveal your true identity as a civet cat?" Mrs. Lian smiled smugly. "Let's go find Yiyi. Let's go to the old lady's room together."
Mrs. Lian arrived at the right time. At that time, Xie Yunjiao and the others were eating dumplings in the old lady's room, chatting and laughing.
"Ms. Xie, I know you are always dissatisfied with me, but I have to ask myself, I have never done anything excessive to you. Is it necessary for you to hurt me like this?" Mrs. Lian said sternly to Xie Yunjiao as soon as she arrived.
"Aunt Qiao, have I ever done anything excessive to you? Why don't I have any recollection of it at all?" Xie Yunjiao said.
They chose this time specifically to cause trouble. It seems that Mrs. Lian must have been fully prepared.
Xie Yunjiao glanced at the dumplings in Mrs. Lian's personal maid's hand and immediately understood.
"Of course you want to harm me quietly. Fortunately, Yiyi also came to my room, otherwise I would have been killed by you." Mrs. Lian asked someone to bring up the glutinous rice balls sent by Xie Yunjiao.
"I heard this is the glutinous rice balls from the south, different from our Yuanxiao. I was thinking of trying it, but luckily Yiyi came over and told me it contains peanuts! I can't eat peanuts, and everyone in the Lian Mansion knows it!" Mrs. Lian looked at Xie Yunjiao with gritted teeth, "When I ate peanuts, I couldn't breathe, my whole body itched, and I almost lost my life.
I didn't expect that you would find out all this shortly after you came back, and you even wanted to harm me.
Tell me, how dark is your heart?
Xie Yunjiao glanced at the butler Lian who was nearby.
He met Xie Yunjiao's gaze with a smile, as if he knew nothing.
"Mom, there might be some misunderstanding. My sister-in-law just came back not long ago and doesn't know anything." Lian Yiyi pretended to speak well of Xie Yunjiao.
Mrs. Lian snorted coldly and said, "Yiyi, don't help her. If she didn't know I can't eat peanuts, why would there be so much peanut filling in my bowl?"
Mrs. Lian had the bowls brought to everyone, and the dumplings inside were broken, and it was unclear what the filling was.
Just as Mrs. Lian said, the peanut filling is indeed more than other fillings.
But everyone's reaction was indifferent, as if nothing had happened.
"Old lady, she wants to kill me!" Mrs. Lian's eyes instantly filled with tears. "If it weren't for Yiyi, I'm afraid I would have already..."
Mrs. Lian looked at Lian Yan while crying, thinking that Lian Yan would at least be a little moved, or even a little worried.
But Lian Yan had no expression at all, looking indifferent, as if this matter had nothing to do with him!
The wife hated it so much that her back teeth were almost broken!
"Aunt Qiao, don't be nervous, there are no peanuts inside." Xie Yunjiao said.
Mrs. Lian was stunned for a moment, her expression stiff. After a while, she gritted her teeth and said, "It clearly tastes like peanuts, how could it not be peanuts!
Do you think you can fool me with just a sentence like that?"
"There really aren't peanuts in it. You may be so busy that you've forgotten that Lian Qi in our family can't eat peanuts, and neither can our two children." Xie Yunjiao said.
Of course, Gu Huai and Dou Dou can eat peanuts, but Lian Jin certainly cannot.
Because Lian Qi really can't eat peanuts, he will be allergic to them. Lian Jin inherited this and can't eat peanuts either.
"Why does he want to eat peanut-flavored glutinous rice balls if he can't eat them..."
The moment these words came out of her mouth, Mrs. Lian regretted it so much that she almost bit off her tongue!
These words were told to her by the housekeeper, she did not hear them with her own ears!
"It's strange. You didn't seem to be there when Doudou said he wanted to eat peanut dumplings?" Xie Yunjiao said.
"I..." Mrs. Lian was so anxious that she almost bit her tongue.
She never expected this result.
Butler Lian has always been prudent in his work, so how could something go wrong at such a critical moment!
She looked at Butler Lian, whose eyes flickered slightly and he didn't dare to look directly at Mrs. Lian.
He didn't know it would be like this.
Seeing that Xie Yunjiao agreed readily, he thought that Xie Yunjiao didn't know that Lian Qi couldn't eat peanuts, so Lian Qi was fake.
He would ask Mrs. Lian to come and make a scene, just to expose the fake Lian Qi.
But who would have thought that the result would be like this.
"Have you had enough of making trouble? If you have, go back to your room. Don't come out unless it's necessary. You're embarrassing yourself." Lian Yan said unhappily.
"Master, I..." Mrs. Lian looked at Lian Yan pitifully, but Lian Yan didn't even look at her.
His brows were slightly furrowed, and he seemed very unhappy.
Mrs. Lian didn't dare to say anything more and left in a hurry.
Lian Yiyi looked at Xie Yunjiao deeply. She didn't expect that this woman was so scheming and had harmed her mother.
Xie Yunjiao winked at Gu Huai, and Gu Huai smiled back.
Fortunately, they had already asked Lian Yan about everything.
Old Madam Lian looked at Lian Yan unhappily and said, "Mrs. Qiao is getting more and more outrageous. You'd better keep her under control. Otherwise, even if she gives birth to Yiyi, I won't let her have an easy life."
Seeing that Lian Yan remained silent, Old Lady Lian continued, "I'm not dead yet, and I'm still the one who calls the shots in this household! And even if I die, Lian Qi and Yun Jiao will still be in charge. It's not her turn as a concubine to have a say here!"
