Chapter 94: Doubts
The little girl was quite clever and knew how to use conditions to make deals.
Tu Ran was so amused that he didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "No, no, I'll help you catch it."
"I'll go look for it." Tu Ran came in, changed his clothes, and without even having time to wash his hands, he took Xie Jiatong to look for the cat everywhere.
"It's rare that Tongtong likes her sister-in-law." The old lady sighed.
Auntie San smiled wryly, "Jiatong is a child who only recognizes her relatives and is close to everyone."
"How is Tongtong's recovery recently?" Xie Nancheng, wearing a white shirt, sat down on the sofa.
"It's nothing, just a few coughs occasionally." Aunt San replied.
Xie Nancheng did dislike his second aunt and third uncle, but he did not have any resentment towards the children of the two families.
After all, they are all flesh and blood of the Xie family. Especially for Xie Jiatong, Xie Nancheng sometimes really loves her from the bottom of his heart.
Tu Ran and Xie Jiatong searched the old house upstairs and downstairs for several times, and finally found the white cat in a storage room on the top floor.
"Pear blossom."
Tu Ran shouted, and the white cat turned around and saw Tu Ran and ran towards him lazily.
Tu Ran held her in his arms. It must be said that Lihua really gave her face.
"Sister-in-law, you are so awesome."
"I'll hold it for you. Be careful and don't touch its paws." Tu Ran instructed carefully.
Xie Jiatong held Lihua in her arms and walked downstairs happily.
At this moment, I suddenly thought of my promise.
So he said mysteriously, "Sister-in-law, let me tell you, I secretly saw Sister Xuan'er say that she wanted to give birth to a child for my brother Nancheng."
Tu Ran was shocked. Is it so explosive?
But after all, this child is only a few years old, and what he says may not be true.
"Ah? Is that so?" Tu Ran asked deliberately.
The little girl nodded. "I originally thought Sister Xuan'er could be Brother Nancheng's wife, but then my mother said that you are my sister-in-law. It's really strange. From now on, only you can give birth to my brother Nancheng's children."
"Ahem... this isn't a topic for children to talk about. Let's go downstairs, Tongtong."
Tu Ran felt it was awkward to talk about these things with such a young child.
Besides, she had never thought about having a child for Xie Nancheng.
However, Xie Jiatong's words revealed an important message.
That is, there is a woman named Xuan'er who has an unusual relationship with Xie Nancheng.
They have reached the point of having a baby, so why... aren't they together?
If I hadn't married in place of Lin Siyao, would Xie Nancheng have married Lin Siyao?
Then who is Xuan'er?
The more Tu Ran thought about it, the more confused he became, so he simply stopped thinking about it.
After dinner, the whole family was in no hurry to leave.
Xie Huailan was rarely in the mood to play cards, so Xie's father took Xie Huailan, Xie Huaishan, and the old lady with him.
The four of them started playing mahjong, and the old lady was in good spirits recently.
Pinggu was watching over me, and it was a warmth that I hadn’t felt for a long time.
Xie Nancheng was not interested in these things, so he went into the study to handle official business.
The two children, Xie Jiatong and Xie Guangyao, were playing with the white cat in the living room.
Tu Ran thought of his Concubine Xue and went to the greenhouse in the back garden.
The greenhouse in the back garden is a place that the Xie family rarely visits.
The Xie family hired a gardener to take care of the garden, and they rarely come here.
The old lady would come and sit occasionally, but no one else was interested.
But this place has unknowingly become Tu Ran's secret place.
She likes it here because the temperature is just right and it is spring all year round with flowers blooming.
She can use the empty pots at any time to grow her own herbs.
Because there were so many flowers, her herbs were placed in a corner and no one noticed them.
This is how she raised Concubine Xue, who was brought back that day.
She also specifically told the gardener that her own herbs did not need anyone else to water them.
Tu Ran sat in the greenhouse, holding Concubine Xue's flowerpot, feeling ecstatic.
As expected, the plant grew and survived. The next step is to collect other herbs and make anti-aging pills.
Rejuvenating pill?
Tu Ran was shocked when this name flashed through his mind.
She had never actually made any anti-aging pills, but somehow the idea felt familiar.
It's like it's deeply engraved in my bones...
"Anti-aging pill..." Tu Ran was stunned and muttered to himself.
At this moment, a very ethereal and distant voice called out, "Ling'er, one pill of this anti-aging pill can keep your appearance unchanged for decades. It's something every woman dreams of, and you actually made it."
"Ling'er, you are the most talented person in our family."
"Ling'er, the rise and fall of our family may depend on you in the future."
"Ling'er..."
Tu Ran stood up in panic and put down Concubine Xue in his hand.
"Who is Ling'er?"
"Who is speaking?"
"who?"
Tu Ran was a little panicked, it was already nine o'clock in the evening.
The greenhouse was empty, but the sound just now was so clear.
Rejuvenating Pill, Ling'er, where did these fragments of information come from?
Are you talking to her?
Have you been hallucinating recently?
"Ling'er... Ling'er."
The voice continued to ring, and Tu Ran vaguely felt that some strange images flashed before his eyes.
But when she tried to see the images clearly, she suddenly had a splitting headache.
She squatted down holding her head, in great pain.
Finally, everything went black before my eyes and I fell down...
After Tu Ran fainted, it was Xie Jiatong who first discovered it.
Because the white cat Lihua suddenly ran out from the living room, the two children ran after the white cat.
"Meow meow meow."
"Lihua, where are you going? Don't run, stop right there." The two children followed the white cat.
I chased her all the way to the greenhouse and saw my sister-in-law lying on the ground.
"Oh my God, sister-in-law, what's wrong with you?"
"Sister-in-law, wake up quickly."
"Brother Guangyao, go call someone quickly, my sister-in-law has fainted." Xie Jiatong's thinking was clear and logical.
The chubby Xie Guangyao hurried back to call for help, and everyone then realized that Tu Ran had fainted.
Xie Nancheng walked in front and picked up Tu Ran from the ground.
The moment he lowered his head and looked at the pale and bloodless face, Xie Nancheng felt a little upset.
Although he himself couldn't explain why?
"Let's send him to the hospital quickly." The old lady of the Xie family was very nervous.
"Well, let's not wait for the ambulance. I'll drive."
"I'll go with you to Nancheng." Mrs. Xie was also very worried.
Xie Huaishan and Xie Huailan certainly didn't care. In their eyes, this woman might not be able to stay in the Xie family for long.
After Xie Nancheng carried Tu Ran to the hospital, his third aunt suddenly asked, "Why did he faint for no reason? Nancheng's wife looks healthy. Could she be pregnant?"
After this was said, no one said anything.
But Xie Huailan's face darkened noticeably.
If this woman gets pregnant at this critical moment, it will not be a good thing.
I haven't dealt with Xie Nancheng yet, and now there's another little one. It's even more troublesome.
