Chapter 14 I’m afraid my mother will be so angry that she will die this time!
The old lady had formed a habit long ago. If she didn't use blood swallows for a day, she would lose the energy to do anything.
The maid who was in charge of fetching food from the kitchen immediately knelt on the ground and said, "Please have mercy, Madam. It's not that I was negligent on purpose, but the kitchen said that the blood swallows in the mansion were used up yesterday."
Qin Shi didn't believe it. "You're talking nonsense. When has the mansion ever lacked these things?"
At the end of her words, she choked.
Mother Huang lowered her head and said nothing. When the lady was in charge of the family before, there was naturally no shortage of these things. Now that the old lady is in charge, can it be the same?
Qin also realized that it must be that bitch Xie Changning who deliberately broke her blood swallow in order to control her.
She’s dreaming!
It’s just some blood swallows. As long as you have money, you can buy it anywhere.
She immediately took out the money and asked Mother Huang to buy it.
Of course, this blame should be placed on Xie Changning.
After struggling for nearly an hour, she finally got to eat the blood swallow as she wished.
"Ugh!" She took only one bite and spat it out. "What is this? Are you kidding me?"
The blood swallows in the bowl were not only mushy and broken, but also had a weird color and the taste was far different from before.
"Please forgive me, old lady. In the past, our house used to use top-grade blood swallows, which were obtained through specific channels. You couldn't buy them even if you had money. This is the only kind of blood swallow on the market, and I really have no other choice." Mother Huang quickly knelt on the ground to apologize.
Qin was so angry that she threw all the bowls.
"I just don't believe it. Without Xie Changning, I can't even eat a bite of bird's nest." Don't think that only Xie Changning has this ability. Her Lan Yue is the lady of the earl, and is no worse than her Xie Changning.
There was no other way but for Mother Huang to take the silver and beg Shen Lanyue.
Reality slapped Qin in the face.
Even if she asked Shen Lanyue for help, it was useless. Mother Huang only brought back a box of ordinary bird's nest.
Qin was furious because she didn't get to eat her favorite blood swallows.
"Zhi Xu has already gone hungry for two meals. What is that bitch Xie Changning doing?"
Huang Mama lowered her head and said truthfully, "After breakfast, Madam was reading in her room."
At last she added, "Even the Second Young Master stayed at Anxiang Tower last night, but Madam didn't care."
Qin sneered, "Does she really want to watch Zhixu starve to death?"
No.
There is no mother in the world who can do such a thing.
Looking at the bowl of ordinary bird's nest on the table, she really had no appetite, so she asked someone to send it to Shen Zhiyan.
Zhiyan is also old enough.
It is normal for a young man full of vigor and vitality to sleep with other women.
Shen Zhiyan was still reading in the study. An hour had passed, and he hadn't turned a page, which showed that he hadn't read a single word.
When Mother Huang came to deliver the bird’s nest.
He suddenly raised his eyes and saw that it was Mother Huang. A sense of loss flashed through his heart, and he himself didn't even know what he was losing.
Isn’t it good that his mother didn’t punish him?
Mother Huang put down the bird's nest. For some reason, he had no appetite at all. "Grandma is the best to me. Please thank her for me."
Su Qingwan didn't come back until almost noon.
Even though she was wearing makeup, Xie Changning could still see traces of crying on her face. She didn't ask anything and asked Mother Du to give Su Qingwan a bowl of blood swallows.
Su Qingwan didn't rush to speak.
After she put down the bowl in her hand, she slowly said, "I have decided to divorce Shen Zhixu."
That’s what my mother meant. She is still young and has entrusted her trust to the wrong person. She can just start over.
So what if she was married?
Those who are truly good to her will not despise her, but will only feel sorry for her.
My mother also said that she must have done a lot of good things in her previous life, so she could meet such a mother-in-law in this life.
Xie Changning was extremely relieved. "Qingwan, you must remember that the divorce is not your fault. The fault is Shen Zhixu. He is the one who has wronged you. Mother hopes that you will be upright in the future and not be afraid of any rumors."
"Okay, I'll listen to mother." Su Qingwan threw herself into her arms with red eyes. Her mother was right. She must have done a lot of good things in her previous life, so she met her mother in this life.
Xie Changning arranged for Su Qingwan to stay in Qixia Courtyard. She gently stroked Su Qingwan's soft long hair and said, "From now on, you will be my daughter."
With just one look from her, Mother Du knew what to do.
Madam had already made all the arrangements yesterday and was just waiting for the young lady's nod.
In the afternoon, Shen Zhiyan finally couldn't bear it anymore. He rushed to Xie Changning in a rage. He couldn't explain why, but he was just very angry.
Xie Changning raised his eyes calmly, "What do you want?"
Shen Zhiyan's face turned pale and he glared at her, "Why did mother hit me yesterday?"
Xie Changning said expressionlessly, "Just because you are disrespectful to me, your mother."
Shen Zhiyan remained silent.
Xie Changning looked impatient, "If you have nothing to do, just get out of here and stop getting in my way."
Being nagging and complaining is annoying.
Shen Zhiyan was even more angry. Veins popped out on his forehead, his eyes were bloodshot, and his chest was heaving violently. He asked the question that had been pent up in his heart, "Mother, do you know where I was last night?"
Mother Du looked at him in confusion.
Madam has known this for a long time.
What does this mean, Second Young Master?
Are you running to the lady and asking for punishment?
Is there something wrong with him?
Isn’t it good that Madam doesn’t punish him?
Xie Changning nodded.
Shen Zhiyan's expression suddenly changed, "Why?"
Xie Changning's hands were itching, and she became increasingly impatient, "Why?"
Shen Zhiyan wanted to ask her, since she knew he was in Anxiang Tower, why didn't she go find him, or even send someone to find him.
But his pride and self-esteem prevented him from saying it.
Suddenly, he changed the subject and said proudly, "Mother, I'm afraid you don't know how carefree and happy I was last night. The girls in Anxiang Tower are so gentle and affectionate, it's really a pleasure to be there. I'm going there again today."
Mother Du’s eyes suddenly widened. Is the second young master looking for death?
Besides, he is a son of a noble family after all, so he doesn't mind the dirt.
I’m afraid the lady must be very angry!
She glanced at Xie Changning secretly and couldn't help but worry for her.
Unexpectedly, Xie Changning had a blank expression on his face. "Are you done? If you're done, get out of here."
What does this have to do with her?
He can go wherever he wants, as long as he has money, he can even stay in Anxiang Tower every day.
She had not forgotten that the letter of severance in her previous life was written by this rebellious son.
Shen Zhiyan was stunned and looked at Xie Changning in disbelief.
What did mother say just now?
How could she do this to him?
His heart was throbbing, and the pain was inexplicable.
After a moment's silence, he blurted out, "I have already promised the girl last night that I would marry her. I hope my mother will approve of this."
He stared at Xie Changning intently. His mother must be so angry that she would die this time!
Last year, his mother arranged a marriage for him.
He would just wait for the next spring imperial examination. After he passed, he would marry Xiao Yingxue, the second daughter of Minister Xiao.
