Three consecutive days of heavy rain damaged many peach trees.

Mrs. Wei was repairing a broken peach branch with a piece of cloth.

"Madam, they can actually grow back next year." Ping'er thought it was unnecessary as it wouldn't hurt the tree.

Mrs. Wei said nothing.

There was a knock on the door in front.

Ping Er went to check and reported back, "Madam, it's the young master."

Madam Wei paused in wrapping the peach branch around her.

…

Guo Huan visited Mrs. Wei, and then returned to Old Madam Wei's courtyard, where he chatted with her for the entire afternoon.

Old Lady Wei sighed, "Don't you find me, an old woman, annoying?"

Guo Huan smiled and said, "How could that be? I benefited a lot from listening to you."

Old Lady Wei was amused: "This child...if Xiao Qi is half as sensible as you, I will have the face to meet his grandfather and father and brothers!"

Guo Huan smiled and said, "My cousin is much more capable than me. He has made military achievements at such a young age. He is a young god-like general in the eyes of the people."

Old Lady Wei snorted, "You are still young, but you are not young anymore!"

Guo Huan never mentioned a word about Wei Ting's marriage with the Guo family. This is what makes him likable. He would never bring up embarrassing or avoidable topics.

No one would feel uncomfortable talking to him.

We had dinner in the courtyard of Old Lady Wei.

Guo Huan sat next to Old Madam Wei. When Old Madam Wei picked up some dishes for him, he accepted them all. He was not like Wei Ting, who was always picky about this and that, making Old Madam Wei feel very unfulfilled.

"Are you full?" asked Old Lady Wei.

Guo Huan held his stomach and said, "I can't walk anymore."

Old Madam Wei asked him to walk for a while, and only when it was really late did she let the servants escort him out of the house.

midnight.

After washing up, Old Lady Wei sat at the head of the bed and looked at the gift that Guo Huan brought her from West City.

It is a military book.

The military book used by her husband, Wu'an Jun, was lost during a war. Unexpectedly, it was found by Guo Huan.

"Mr. Guo is very thoughtful," said Nanny Li. "It has been lost for so many years, it is not easy to find."

Old Lady Wei nodded.

Otherwise, why would she love him so much? This child really put a lot of thought into respecting everyone in the mansion.

Old Lady Wei stroked her husband's belongings, thinking: "Alas, it's a pity that I don't have a granddaughter, otherwise the two families could have been married."

When this was mentioned, Nanny Li said, "I heard that the Prime Minister's Mansion has found another marriage for Mr. Guo, with the daughter of the Zheng family."

Old Lady Wei pondered, "Is this the nth time Huan'er has proposed marriage?"

Nanny Li said, "The third time."

Old Lady Wei sighed, "This child is good in every way, except for his marriage...which is a bit bumpy."

Madam Li said, "Those girls are just unlucky."

Old Lady Wei sighed, "I hope nothing goes wrong this time."

"Old lady! Old lady! Something happened!"

A little maid came over hurriedly.

"Who's in trouble?" asked Old Lady Wei calmly.

The little maid said anxiously: "Young Miss...Young Miss is making a fuss!"

It was the middle of the night and most people in the mansion had gone to bed, except for the courtyard of the second house, which was brightly lit and was occasionally accompanied by Wei Xiyue's crying and screaming.

Li was so annoyed by the noise that she wanted to beat her up.

"Second brother's wife!"

Chu stopped Li in time.

Wei Xiyue got angry in the house and threw things everywhere.

In the eyes of outsiders, Wei Xiyue is a shy and well-behaved girl, but only those who are close to her know that she can be very scary once she starts making a fuss.

In serious cases, she would even hurt herself.

"Xiyue!"

Old Lady Wei walked into the house hurriedly, leaning on a cane.

"ah--"

Chen hurriedly hugged Rang.

She couldn't move her body and could only scream.

Old Lady Wei had a headache and was distressed: "Second son's wife, what happened?"

Li's eyes were red as she said, "She was fine and had already fallen asleep. Maybe she drank too much water at night and suddenly woke up to go to the toilet. After she went to the toilet, she yelled that she wanted to look for her squirrel. I said I would look for it tomorrow, but she refused. So I asked Xiaoju to bring the little thing over."

"But she insisted that it wasn't Xiaobai... and she was making trouble with me... I said a few words to her... and she just..."

Li felt very aggrieved.

Everyone said that she was blessed because she gave birth to the only child of the Wei family.

Who could understand that the child she gave birth to after ten months of pregnancy was not a normal child at all?

She was exhausted...

I blame myself, I am angry, and I don’t know what to do…

“Ah—ah—ah—”

Wei Xiyue screamed like crazy and refused to listen to anyone's comfort.

"Where is that little thing?" asked Old Lady Wei.

Xiaoju tremblingly held the little white ball in her arms.

Old Lady Wei looked left and right. Isn't this the same one as before? It's exactly the same size, plump, and pure white.

Old Lady Wei put down her cane, walked over and gently held Wei Xiyue's cheek: "Xiyue, Xiyue, be good, great-grandmother brought Xiaobai here, look."

Wei Xiyue showed a slight reaction and stopped screaming at the top of her lungs.

Old Lady Wei brought the little girl over to her and handed her over: "Here, Xiaobai."

"No! No! No!"

Wei Xiyue screamed again.

Suddenly, Wei Xiyue's body began to twitch.

Old Lady Wei's expression changed: "Xiyue?"

Chen looked down and said, "Xiyue!"

Li pushed Chen away and said, "Third sister-in-law! What did you do to Xiyue? Who told you to use so much force?"

Chen said, "I don't have any."

She really didn't use much force. She didn't know how to control the strength when doing other things, but when she hugged Wei Xiyue, she strictly controlled her strength.

Jiang said: "Second sister-in-law, Third sister-in-law will not hurt Xiyue!"

Wei Xiyue began to twitch continuously, and everyone was terrified.

Mrs. Li hugged her daughter and burst into tears: "Hurry up and call a doctor! Call a doctor!"

"It's too late!" Old Lady Wei said solemnly, "Children's convulsions are very dangerous. Please ask the doctor to come back. Xiyue may not be saved."

Li couldn't stop crying: "What should I do, grandma? Grandma, please save Xiyue...save Xiyue..."

The night is long and silent.

The crescent moon disappeared into the clouds.

"Big pig's trotter..." Little Tiger mumbled in his sleep, hugged Big Tiger's little feet and started to gnaw on them.

Su Xiaoxiao turned over and grabbed the little kid into her arms.

The whole family slept soundly.

Suddenly, a gust of cold wind blew and the door was kicked open with a clang!

"What did you do? What did you do? What did you do?!"

Su Cheng jumped up in shock and pulled out the butcher knife from under the bed.

Su Xiaoxiao was also awakened and took out the dagger under the pillow.

Wei Ting is not here tonight.

A master came unexpectedly——

She was about to make a move when the other party spoke: "Miss Su."

This sound——

Su Xiaoxiao looked closely and asked, "Is it you?"

The man in white clothes and a bamboo hat knelt on one knee holding the child in his arms: "Please, Miss Su, save Xiyue."
