"And in order to make me vacate the position of mistress of the Marquis' Mansion for his concubine, he wrote to his two children a few months ago, asking them to poison me, hoping that I would die from the poison.
Even a few nights ago, Lin Huijin and Lin Youran wanted to set me on fire in the middle of the night."
Ying Xixi said this lightly.
When Gu Si heard this, anger burst out from his body.
"What?! How dare Lin Weiyi and those two bastards do this to you?!"
Ying Xixi hummed, "I'm lucky. I couldn't sleep in the middle of the night, so I got up and sat in the garden, and that's how I escaped.
Before Lin Weiyi returns with his mistress, I'm afraid Lin Huijin and Lin Youran will continue to poison me until I die."
Gu Siyu's eyes were filled with coldness, "Since Lin Weiyi has decided to kill you, we don't have to let him go.
"Sister-in-law, you've been giving money to Lin Huijin these past two days, allowing him to go to the gambling house, and not interfering with Lin Youran and a gangster. Are you starting to take revenge on them?"
"right."
Ying Xixi nodded and turned to look at Gu Siyu, "Do you think it's cruel? To do such a thing to two thirteen-year-old children?
I also told Lin Youran not to go to school anymore, but to stay home and learn how to manage the household and sew wedding dresses."
Gu Siyu hugged Ying Xixi tightly, resting his chin on her neck.
"No, no matter what my sister-in-law does, it's right, and I will support her.
My sister-in-law has raised two ungrateful people for eight years. Now they want to kill you. Whatever you do to them is right!
Sister-in-law, don't worry about Lin Weiyi, just leave it to me.
I will definitely make Lin Weiyi regret why he didn't die eight years ago.
Since he's still alive, I can just send him and his family of four to the underworld to reunite!"
A hint of murderous intent flashed across Gu Siyu's eyes.
"What do you want to do?"
Ying Xixi asked.
“Sister-in-law, what do you think about Lin Weiyi suddenly coming back to life after being ‘dead’ for eight years?
Would the emperor be happy? Wu'an Hou had always been a thorn in the emperor's side, and now he had finally died on the battlefield.
But he suddenly came back to life, and the emperor will have to make new plans."
Gu Siyu whispered into Ying Xixi's ear.
Ying Xixi understood, it was similar to her previous guess.
"Prince Gu, but before the Emperor plots against Lin Weiyi, we should give him a push, so that he has a reason."
“That’s what my sister-in-law said, so leave this matter to me.
Don't worry, sister-in-law. When everything is over, just marry me."
Gu Si rubbed his cheek against Ying Xixi's neck like a big dog, making her feel itchy and want to dodge.
"Master Gu, you and Lin Weiyi are brothers, aren't you?
You helped the emperor plot against him and even stole his wife. Is this really okay?"
Gu Siyu chuckled, "There's nothing wrong with it. He doesn't even treat me as his brother, so why should I treat him as my brother?
Sister-in-law, if the emperor had granted the marriage to you and me back then, it would have been better."
Ying Xixi didn't say anything, but just thought that if the arranged marriage was really like this, then the original owner might not have suffered these grievances and misfortunes, and she would not have come to this plane to carry out the mission.
Neither of them spoke anymore. Gu Siyu hugged Ying Xixi and quietly enjoyed the quiet night when they were alone.
The scent on Gu Siyu's body was a mixture of light medicinal fragrance and floral scent.
Ying Xixi felt that she was not only being hugged tightly by Gu Siyu, but also enveloped by his scent.
Slowly, she closed her eyes and fell asleep.
Gu Siyu noticed the long breathing of the person in his arms, looked down and found that Ying Xixi had fallen asleep.
He raised the corners of his lips slightly, and the tenderness in his eyes was almost seeping out.
Gu Siyu picked up Ying Xixi and carried her horizontally, gently placing her on the bed, took off her boots, and covered her with a quilt.
Gu Siyu sat beside the bed, looking at Ying Xixi's sleeping face, and couldn't help but reach out to poke her cheek.
After an unknown amount of time, Gu Siyu finally stood up and prepared to leave.
Before leaving, he leaned over and placed a kiss on Ying Xixi's forehead.
Ying Xixi slept until dawn and had no dreams all night.
She stretched herself and thought about what happened last night. She realized belatedly that she was still sitting on the couch with Gu Siyu.
She actually fell asleep just sitting in Gu Siyu's arms!
Now she is lying on the bed. It must be Gu Siyu who carried her back to bed.
After Ying Xixi finished washing and dressing up with Qiulin's help, she asked Qiulin to call Lin Youran over.
By the way, she also asked someone to notify the clan members and asked them to send a few people to witness the transfer of family power.
When the servant relayed this message, the clan members were furious.
"Didn't the Great Elder just hand over the family leadership to the Ying family yesterday? What's the Ying family up to today?!"
"I heard that the Ying family wants to hand over the management of the family to Miss Ran'er."
"What? Are you kidding me? Lin Youran is only thirteen years old. She'll be getting married in two years."
What on earth was Ying thinking about letting a girl who was going to be married off in two years take charge of the household?!
Or does the Ying family want Lin Youran to marry into the family? Even if that's the case, the power of the family should be in the hands of Lin Huijin's wife. What does it have to do with Lin Youran?!"
"Yeah, I don't know what Ying is thinking. Anyway, let's go over and take a look."
......
Finally, a large group of people from the clan came.
Ying Xixi and Lin Youran were sitting and eating breakfast when they saw so many people from the clan coming over.
And they don't look very friendly.
Those who didn’t know would think they were here to fight with Ying Xixi.
"Ying, I heard that you want to hand over the power of the family to Ran'er?"
The Great Elder stood up with a stern face and questioned.
"Yes, I called you all here today to bear witness, but I didn't expect so many people to come."
Ying Xixi glanced at everyone and continued eating slowly.
"Ms. Ying, Ran'er will be getting married in two years, and she is still in school.
If you want Ran'er to learn how to manage the household so that she can manage it when she marries into her husband's family in the future, then you can teach her or ask someone in the clan to teach her.
There's no need to hand over the reins of the household to her!"
The Great Elder was puffing his beard and glaring, but his words were quite tactful.
Because he felt that the reason why Ying did this was probably because of the instigation of Lin Huijin.
That guy not only got the benefits for himself, but also wanted his sister to get the benefits as well!
Since it was not Ying's own idea, there was no need for him to scold Ying.
Ying Xixi didn't know what the Great Elder was thinking, but she also clearly felt that the Great Elder's attitude towards her seemed not to be so tough anymore.
"Great Elder, Ran'er will not be attending school from today onwards.
As the saying goes, a woman’s virtue lies in her lack of talent. It’s good for her to learn how to manage the household…”
