Ying Xixi's face turned cold and she shook off Ying's mother's hand.
"A loving father can only make his son filial! Before you asked me to recognize you, did you forget that you sold me to a human trafficker for two taels of silver?
At that time I thought you were my parents, so how did you treat me?!
Now you remember to let me recognize you as my parents?!"
Ying Xixi said this in a stern voice and looked around at the crowd of onlookers.
"Everyone, I don't know how many of you know the saying, 'Don't comment without knowing the full story.'
But when it comes to other people's affairs, if everyone is like you and starts attacking the other party because of what one party said, all those who were forced to death by people who are unworthy of being parents are your fault!
You guys will regret it in the middle of the night, because your onlookers and comments have killed so many people! "
The onlookers looked at each other in bewilderment.
Some people were not convinced and retorted with their necks stiff, "You little girl, what did we say? We were just watching.
Besides, even if your parents sold you, it must have been because your family was in trouble. Otherwise, which parent would be willing to sell their own child? "
When Ying's mother heard someone speaking up for her, she quickly agreed, "That's right! Xixi, you know what happened back then. If our family wasn't short of money, there's no way we would have sold you!"
When Ying Xixi saw that her mother didn't tell her that she was a barren woman, she became alert.
“You know better than anyone what the situation was like back then.
Back then, you sold me to a human trafficker for two taels of silver, and told me not to come to you again.
I did it, and I hope you can do it too.
otherwise......."
Ying Xixi's eyes flashed with coldness, "Don't blame me for exposing all the dirty things in your family!
I suppose you guys, having finally made it to the capital, wouldn't want to go back to the village in disgrace, right?"
When Ying's father and mother heard this, they choked at the same time and looked at Ying Xixi with some fear.
They were a little unsure about what Ying Xixi knew.
Or is it that thing?
Ying Xixi walked out of the crowd with a cold face, and just happened to see Zhao Yuxiao who had come downstairs at some point and was standing beside her.
She hurried forward and said, "General, please forgive me for delaying you for a while, but the roast chicken is still hot."
Zhao Yuxiao looked coldly at the Ying family's parents who were looking over here.
One look scared them so much that they looked away.
"It's okay, do you need any help?"
Zhao Yuxiao asked this, and Ying Xixi knew that he must have heard the conversation just now.
"No need, General. They probably won't dare to come to me again."
"Well, if you need help, just tell me."
After Zhao Yuxiao finished speaking, he lowered his eyes to glance at the roast chicken that Ying Xixi was holding.
"Just one roast chicken might not be enough. Let's buy something else."
The two were strolling in the snack street. Not far away, Ying's father and mother looked at them and talked in a low voice.
"Did that damn girl find a man?"
"No, she should be working as a maid in that man's house. Anyway, Xixi is not easy to mess with right now. Let's not look for her for now. Let's find out more about her situation first."
Ying's father's cloudy eyes were full of calculation as he spoke in a low voice.
Ying Xixi and Zhao Yuxiao bought some food and returned to the teahouse.
According to the rules, Ying Xixi, as a maid, could not sit with Zhao Yuxiao.
But for Zhao Yuxiao, rules are just a decoration.
He directly asked Ying Xixi to sit opposite him and eat with him.
Ying Xixi thanked her and listened to what the system said to her while gnawing on a chicken leg.
[Host, all the powerful ones have been investigated!]
The reason why Ying's parents came to the capital was because their youngest son Ying Bei found a job in the capital.
Seeing that Yingbei had a job in the capital and rented a house to live in, they followed him to enjoy the good life.
Ying Xixi: “???Ah???”
"What about their two daughters?"
[She had already been married off by them. They earned a total of twenty taels of betrothal money and followed Ying Bei directly to the capital. They even sold their house in Taohua Village.
It seems they want to settle down in the capital.]
Ying Xixi: “….”
"It's not easy for Yingbei to find a job in the capital. What kind of job did he find?
I don’t know if the letter that Ying’s parents gave to the original owner in the original plot has anything to do with Ying Bei.”
[Ying Bei's job was as a waiter in a gambling house, running errands, collecting debts, threatening people, etc. He did this for several years and made many enemies.
All the powerful ones we have investigated so far have not been found to be close to any royal nobles.
It is not yet certain whether the mastermind behind the plot against the male protagonist has any connection with Ying Bei.
Rest assured, host, we will continue investigating and will let you know when we have news.
"Okay, I'll leave it to you then."
Ying Xixi took a bite of the meat, chewed it, and found it tasted pretty good.
Zhao Yuxiao, who was sitting opposite her, watched her chewing the meat absent-mindedly, thinking that she was still sad about what happened just now, so he spoke.
"Chunhua, cry if you want to. This general won't laugh at you."
Ying Xixi almost choked on the meat in her mouth.
She covered her mouth and coughed a few times, then looked at Zhao Yuxiao with her red and moist eyes in confusion.
"General, I don't want to cry, and it's not worth it for me to cry."
Zhao Yuxiao's heart skipped a beat for unknown reason when he was looked at by Ying Xixi's eyes.
Now he was the one who was confused.
He rubbed his heart.
He has a heart disease?
"Well, if there's anything you need me to do, just tell me."
Zhao Yuxiao put down his hand and planned to find the court doctor to see if there was any problem with his heart.
"Okay, thank you, General."
Ying Xixi thought Zhao Yuxiao would ask her about her past, but he didn't.
Maybe it’s because Zhao Yuxiao doesn’t have any feelings for her yet.
Ying Xixi took a big bite of the meat and chewed it.
The two of them finished all the food they bought. Ying Xixi touched her bulging belly and felt that she didn't need to eat tonight.
After returning home, Zhao Yuxiao told Ying Xixi not to follow him and he went to find the palace doctor himself.
The court doctor was a little surprised to see Zhao Yuxiao coming in person.
"General?"
"Doctor, please take this general's pulse."
Zhao Yuxiao sat down with his arms and legs extended.
The court doctor didn't know what was wrong with the general, so he didn't say anything and just took his pulse.
After a while, the court doctor spoke.
"General, you have recovered very well. I don't know why, but the hidden illness you had seems to be slowly recovering as well."
Zhao Yuxiao's brows furrowed, his focus completely misplaced. "I'm recovering well? I'm fine now?"
"Yes, General, you are in good health."
Zhao Yuxiao was puzzled, "Then why does my heartbeat speed up?"
The court doctor was a little confused, "General, please explain in detail."
