Chapter 180 Believe in Him
Luo Xiaoxiao didn't dare to say more now.
I can only go and pack things for grandma.
After Xiaoxiao left, Grandma Luo started to speak: "I was the one who gave you the love poison. If you treat Xiaoxiao badly in the future, no matter where you are, even if you have cured the love poison, someone will take care of you."
When Grandma Luo said this, her face was full of cruelty.
Xia Zixuan was not afraid, staring straight into Grandma Luo's eyes: "Grandma, don't worry, I will never let Xiaoxiao down. If I really let her down, my eldest sister will not forgive me even without Grandma's help."
If he was really wrong, his elder sister would definitely punish him, he was sure of that.
His eldest sister taught him that men must be responsible. Combined with his own childhood experiences, he did not intend to let his wife suffer any grievances.
He doesn't want his wife to suffer the same hardship as his mother.
"That would be best."
In the afternoon, Xia Zixuan brought Grandma Luo and the other two into the imperial city.
As soon as he entered the imperial city, Luo Xiaoxiao was attracted by the sounds around him.
She seldom went into the imperial city, even though their village was very close to it.
Not only her, but many people in the village have never been to the imperial city.
"Xiaoxiao, do you want to go downstairs for a walk?" Xia Zixuan asked because he saw that she was curious.
There's no rush to go home.
Xiaoxiao glanced at her grandmother and finally shook her head, "No, please accompany me out for a walk next time." She withdrew her gaze.
They soon arrived at the Xia Mansion, and the door was already wide open.
The eldest lady said that there will be distinguished guests coming to the house today.
Look, the distinguished guest has arrived, and the eldest young master came to pick him up personally.
The carriage went straight into the Xia Mansion through the gate.
Xia Yutong and Wen Li were also waiting in the hall of the Xia Mansion early. Given their status, being able to wait here was considered a face-giving to the Luo family's grandparents and grandchildren.
"Xia Xue, go and see how the food is prepared?" Looking at the sky outside, it was almost time.
Compared to Xia Yutong's anxiety, Wen Li was not anxious at all. He took a book and started flipping through it.
Xia Xue immediately took the order and went down. They were also a little anxious, fearing that they might not do something right and make the eldest young lady angry, which would be disastrous.
Grandma Luo and Luo Xiaoxiao quickly arrived at the hall under the guidance of Xiaoxuan.
Seeing the people in the hall, Xia Zixuan's face was full of smiles: "Sister, I brought the people here." The elder sister is waiting here, which means that she cares about it.
They came in and made such a loud noise, how could Xia Yutong not see or hear it?
"It's good that you're here, it's good that you're here. Come on, come in and have a rest." Xia Yutong stood up from the chair. Her belly was already noticeable.
Fortunately, she was paying attention and her movements were not too big.
I went to meet her immediately. There was no other way. Her family was asking for help from someone else's daughter, so I had to give her enough face.
"Hello, Grandma Luo." Seeing an old lady, Xia Yutong did not care about her status and took the initiative to speak to her.
Grandma Luo has seen a lot, and since they are so polite, she certainly can't take advantage of them: "You too."
Xia Zixuan didn't tell them that his eldest sister was the Crown Princess. Firstly, he was afraid that they would feel burdened, and secondly, his eldest sister was now just the eldest sister of the Xia family.
"You must have had a hard time along the way." Xia Yutong took the initiative to step forward and support Grandma Shang Luo.
Xia Zixuan pulled Xiaoxiao, he could feel her nervousness.
"Big sister, this is Xiaoxiao."
Then he turned around and introduced Xiaoxiao: "Xiaoxiao, this is my eldest sister."
Luo Xiaoxiao was a shy little girl, her face flushed as she called out softly, "Hello, big sister."
"Okay, okay, okay, Xiaoxiao is here too. Come and sit down." Xia Yutong was very hospitable, and of course, she was sincere.
This was the first time her silly brother fell in love with a girl, and she couldn't let him mess things up.
After Luo Zuo, Xia Yutong introduced Wen Li again, but did not mention the identity of the prince.
Wen Li is the crown prince, and seeing Grandma Luo again, his suspicions are confirmed, so he becomes the cold and taciturn person he is now.
Everyone chatted together and soon became friends. Grandma Luo also had a new understanding of the eldest sister of the Xia family.
I think Xiaoxiao would not suffer the same fate as her if she married into the Xia family.
"Sister Xia, there's something I need to apologize to you for." Since the other party was sincere, she should make it clear.
After Xia Xue and the others served tea, they all left, leaving the space for their family.
"Grandma Luo, please speak." Xia Yutong put down the teacup in her hand and listened carefully.
Grandma Luo did not hide anything and directly told Xiaoxuan that he was poisoned by love.
Xiaoxiao became anxious when she heard this.
"Grandma, please give the antidote to Brother Xiaoxuan quickly." In a hurry, she stood up and said to her grandmother.
Seeing her like this, Grandma Luo said angrily, "She's really a daughter who married out. She only knows how to beg for mercy. What a pity, there's no antidote for this poison."
She wasn't really angry.
This girl still hasn't learned to stay calm.
You won’t be anxious even if you don’t see the real owner.
Xia Yutong and Xiaoxuan just didn't expect that Grandma Luo would talk about this.
Seeing the girl's anxiety, Xia Yutong immediately patted Xiaoxuan twice and said, "Why don't you explain it to Xiaoxiao quickly."
She didn't want any rift between the grandparents and grandchildren because of Xiaoxuan.
Xiaoxuan held Xiaoxiao's hand and smiled at her: "Xiaoxiao, I'm fine. Don't listen to grandma. Grandma is just trying to scare me."
After saying that, he looked at Grandma Luo again and shook his head slightly.
It’s better not to let Xiaoxiao know about this.
He was also willing to endure this love poison, and besides, he had confidence in himself.
Grandma Luo smiled bitterly and said, "You child, you really are missing your mother now that you have a husband." After saying that, she turned her back and didn't intend to pay any attention to Xiaoxiao.
Xiao Xiao was a little embarrassed and smiled foolishly, "Grandma, don't be angry, I, I didn't know you were trying to scare Brother Xiaoxuan."
Wen Li on the side was a little curious. Grandma Luo was a ruthless person when she was young. Unexpectedly, the granddaughter she raised was so naive.
However, this is not the time to talk about this.
Seeing Xiao Xiao at a loss, Xia Yutong immediately stepped forward to resolve the situation and said, "You, grandma is worried about you. She's afraid that you'll be bullied at your husband's house. But don't worry, I'm here. If Xiao Xuan bullies you, I won't let him off."
What he said was so certain.
Xiaoxiao has a very good impression of her elder sister. She is not like those sisters-in-law in the village who bully their wives at every turn.
"Thank you, big sister." After thanking her, she said with certainty: "Brother Xiaoxuan will not bully me." After saying that, a confident smile appeared on her face.
Xiaoxuan also became shy at the side, "Yes, I won't bully Xiaoxiao, big sister, grandma, don't worry."
The meeting was successfully completed.
The Luo family's grandmother and granddaughter also stayed at the Xia family.
Luo Xiaoxiao's identity was also determined, and people in the mansion called her "Young Madam" when they saw her.
At first she was so embarrassed that her face turned red, and she asked people not to call her that.
After being comforted by Xiaoxuan several times, she got used to them calling her that.
This stay lasted for more than half a month, and Xia Yutong and Wen Li also stayed in the Xia Mansion for half a month.
This half month was the most comfortable half month for Xia Yutong.
However, Wen Li's identity is there, and he has things to do.
"Xiaoxuan, your brother-in-law and I are going back home. I have also made an agreement with Grandma Luo, and she said she would accompany you to South City." Xia Yutong planned to go back home tomorrow, so she called Xiaoxuan to tell him something.
Wen Li is there too.
Xiaoxuan was a little reluctant, but he also knew that he couldn't let his elder sister live here forever.
"Okay, I know. Grandma Luo told me that I plan to go back to South City in a few days." If I don't go back now, I will miss Rongrong's wedding.
"Okay then, just prepare some extra things for the journey and don't make things difficult for the little girl and her grandmother."
It was getting late, so Xia Yutong planned to go back to the house to rest after she finished speaking, but Wen Li stayed.
He stayed just to let Xiaoxuan be prepared, and there were some things he planned to tell Xiaoxuan first.
In addition, in the past half month, he asked the secret guard to investigate Grandma Luo's affairs, and what he got was the same as he guessed.
"Xiaoxuan, be nicer to Xiaoxiao in the future, otherwise I'm afraid you really can't withstand the counterattack of the Luo family." He didn't want the entire Xia family to be harmed because of Xiaoxuan.
Xiaoxuan is not stupid. He had already guessed about Grandma Luo's abilities and her love poison, but he just didn't ask.
"Brother-in-law knows?"
"Yeah, I understand a little bit."
Afterwards, Wen Li told Xiaoxuan what he knew.
Grandma Luo is not really a village woman.
She was born in Chicheng, which was divided into two major forces.
One side is mainly composed of Dayan people, and the other side is mainly composed of a small number of local residents.
The Luo family is the leader of the minority residents.
In the past, conflicts would occur between the two sides, but as Dayan assimilated over the years, gradually, many people on the minority side also began to assimilate.
They did manage to turn hostility into friendship, but this did not reduce their power, but instead made their power more united.
Of course, Dayan could not just watch them grow stronger. Fortunately, they had no intention of continuing to grow stronger. Instead, they moved all their families into the mountains.
They rarely go out, and gradually, many people begin to forget how powerful they are.
Just thirty years ago, a major event happened in Chicheng.
At that time, the mayor of Chicheng was young and full of vigor. When he learned that there was such a powerful force in Chicheng, he became interested.
His original intention was to conquer her in order to fulfill his ambitions.
By then, maybe I can return to the imperial city and serve as an official.
After trying many methods, he still couldn't subdue him. Finally, he did something that made the world ashamed.
That's the beauty trap.
In the end, he succeeded.
And the person who was misled by the handsome man was Grandma Luo.
He didn't really like Grandma Luo, but Grandma Luo fell in love with this man. For him, she also persuaded her clansmen.
Unfortunately, none of them are willing to do so, and they will not live together in Dayan.
Since she wanted to marry that man, the people in the tribe also allowed her to do so.
The accident happened on the day of her wedding.
The people who came to welcome the bride were not the man’s relatives and friends, but the army he brought with him.
Almost massacred the entire minority group.
As the leader of this incident, the Luo family fought back hard and finally succeeded in driving those people away.
But there were also heavy casualties among his own clan.
Fortunately, the emperor at that time was a sensible man. Not only did he deal with the city lord, he also marked out a map for ethnic minorities to live in, and ordered that they should not be attacked, of course, to protect Dayan.
The emperor also said in the imperial edict that if the minority groups took action first, Dayan could purge the entire minority group.
In this regard, the matter was finally resolved satisfactorily.
But the accident still happened.
The woman who married a minority, she hated and resented.
Overnight, she massacred the entire city lord's mansion.
From then on, she became a wanted person by the court.
Unexpectedly, she actually lived in the imperial city and stayed there for decades.
In the end, he married his granddaughter to the brother-in-law of the current crown prince. It was really unexpected.
After listening to this, Xiaoxuan sighed and said, "From now on, I will take care of grandma myself." He was not stupid, and of course he understood the meaning of what his brother-in-law said to him.
"It's good that you understand. I don't want to argue with you about this, but I think Luo Xiaoxiao probably doesn't know about this." Wen Li said lightly.
It would be best if Grandma Luo could calm down and settle down.
Although the minority groups are few in number, they are all good fighters.
Whether it's using force or poison, he's an expert.
"Well, brother-in-law, I understand."
After saying that, Wen Li went back to the house to accompany his wife.
After Xiaoxuan calmed down, he planned to tell Grandma Luo about the identities of his brother-in-law and eldest sister after tomorrow to see how she would react.
Otherwise, he...
At noon the next day, Xia Yutong said goodbye to Xiaoxiao and returned home.
Not long after they left, Xia Zixuan told Grandma Luo about the identity of his eldest sister.
After hearing this, Grandma Luo laughed: "I didn't expect that boy to be the prince. Yes, with that kind of momentum, he must belong to the royal family. Let him rest assured. I am old now."
Grandma Luo is not stupid. The prince and Xiaoxuan are saying these things just to warn her.
Besides, the revenge she had taken had already been taken, and she had no other wishes except being unable to face her tribe members.
"Grandma." Xiaoxuan looked at the hunched back and called out, "I'll take care of everything."
He could see that grandma still missed her family very much.
"Okay, let's go back and pack up early. Let's go to South City early." Imperial City, it seems that she will have to leave for some time.
Besides, her granddaughter is not in the village, and she has no plans to go back.
The old woman will enjoy the blessing of her granddaughter.
Xia Zixuan acted quickly. Three days later, he came to say goodbye to his elder sister and returned to South City.
Xia Yutong also asked people to prepare things and let them follow Xiaoxuan back to South City.
Xiaoxuan was stunned for a moment, but after seeing the seriousness in his elder sister's eyes, he smiled bitterly and said, "Sister, grandma wouldn't be that kind of person."
What kind of thing?
Of course, it’s about threatening the Xia family.
"Yeah, I know." Xia Yutong replied coldly.
However, in her heart, family still means a lot: "Xiaoxuan, no matter what you think, but remember one thing, they are our relatives, the only relatives we have in the world."
She didn't want to put him in a dilemma, but sometimes, people are selfish.
"Sister." Xiaoxuan felt bitter.
After Xiaoxuan left the imperial city, Xia Yutong always felt like something was going to happen. Wen Li was very worried when he saw her like this.
After chatting for a while, he smiled: "Xiaotong, what are you thinking? With Xiaoxuan's skills, no one can hurt him. Besides, Grandma Luo is not a truly cruel person. She was just seeking revenge back then."
He actually admired Grandma Luo very much.
"Alas, I can't argue with you. You should have someone keep an eye on you." She didn't dare to gamble.
"Okay, I'm watching." Of course he was watching.
But he trusts Xiaoxuan more.
