Chapter 50: A desperate dog jumps over the wall, the cousin bites the cousin
Xie Zhi is undoubtedly beautiful. Although her appearance cannot be called as stunning as a beauty from heaven, she is still a pretty girl from a small family.
Because Xie Zhi had just taken a bath, her long hair was wet, making her look more like a swaying willow, which made people feel pity for her.
Facing Xie Chengyu's fiery gaze, Xie Zhi took two steps back uneasily.
However, seeing that he was still leaning on a cane and his eyes were black and blue, she calmed down again: "Zhizhi is no longer a child, why does he still need to eat sweet red bean cakes?"
She deliberately wanted to drive Xie Chengyu away: "My cousin is not well yet. If he gets hurt again when he comes to my place, how will I explain to my cousin's wife? You'd better go back and rest."
Xie Chengyu's expression changed, and his tone became more questioning: "Zhizhi, you always called me brother before, why are you so cold now? You won't even let me in?"
Xie Zhi bit her lip and turned away: "What's the point of being indifferent? Zhizhi has always treated you like this, so please be careful with your words."
"Be careful with your words?" Xie Chengyu seemed to be stimulated when he heard these two words, and the veins on his forehead suddenly bulged.
He took a step forward, reluctantly threw away his crutch, tore the letter in his hand into pieces, and threw it up!
He was not a fool. When he saw Xie Zhi reading the imperial edicts, which were only available in the palace, couldn't he guess what she was thinking?
"I suffered such a severe injury because of you. Now I have lost my official position and am about to become disabled. You don't care at all and even want to marry into the royal family. Do you want me to be careful with my words?"
"My cousin's injury violated military regulations. What does it have to do with Zhizhi?"
"Xie Zhi, you can't be so heartless. You've obviously been holding off on marriage because you're waiting for me. Just wait a little longer. Even if my leg is crippled, I'll take the imperial examination next spring. With Han by my side, I'll definitely earn you a good future!"
"I don't understand what my cousin said. I haven't arranged a marriage yet, it's just that I haven't met a good family. My cousin's leg is injured. If you want to take the imperial examination, it's for your own benefit, not for me."
Xie Chengyu's eyes turned redder as he looked at her indifferent expression.
"Now, even you think I'm useless?!" He slammed the door shut, gritting his teeth.
Xie Zhi no longer concealed his disdain and said calmly, "My cousin's future is ruined. I hope that for the sake of our past brotherly friendship, you will not hinder Zhizhi's future."
"You lied to me, and you still want a future as a concubine in the palace? Dream on, dream on!"
As he spoke, Xie Chengyu pounced towards Xie Zhi like a hungry wolf.
Although he was injured, he was an adult man with martial arts skills after all. He trapped Xie Zhi in a few moves and began to tear her clothes.
The large area of snow-white skin exposed made Xie Chengyu even more beastly.
"You're crazy!" Xie Zhi was horrified and struggled desperately, but did not dare to shout for help.
What would happen to her reputation if someone saw this?
In a hurry, Xie Zhi touched the golden hairpin in his hair.
She hurriedly pulled it out and stabbed Xie Chengyu's leg with it.
Xie Chengyu groaned in pain, shook his body, let go of her, his face pale.
"Xie Zhi, you dare to hurt me!" He was unwilling to give in, growled, and was about to pounce forward again.
Xie Zhi used all his strength to push him away.
This time, Xie Chengyu was pushed directly against the door, the door was kicked open, and he stumbled and fell out.
“Bang!”
The snack box in Han Sixue's hand fell to the ground, and the red bean cake inside broke into several pieces.
She stared at the scene in a daze - her husband rolled out of Xie Zhi's room, and Xie Zhi had disheveled hair and disheveled clothes.
When Xie Chengyu fell, the previous wound had already opened up, and blood immediately stained his clothes red. He was in so much pain that he had no strength left and could not even stand up.
When he looked up, he saw his wife Han appear in front of him.
On the ground were broken red bean cakes.
"Han, please listen to my explanation..." He said hoarsely.
The servant who had been guarding the door also knelt down hurriedly, kowtowed repeatedly: "Your humble servant... Your humble servant was just about to announce that Madam had arrived, but I didn't expect you to open the door."
Han Sixue came back to her senses, her tone a little dull: "Okay, explain it to me, I want to hear how you explain it to me, and how you explain it to my brother."
At this moment, she suddenly thought of her brother.
When Xie Chengyu married her, he swore in front of his brother that he would respect and love her and treat her as a treasure.
If my brother were here, he would never let Xie Chengyu do such a thing... never...
If she had known earlier, she wouldn't have ridden a fast horse and rushed back. If she hadn't come back, she wouldn't have guessed that Xie Chengyu was at Xie Zhi's residence and wouldn't have come looking for him...
Han Sixue looked dazed, but she didn't notice that when she mentioned the word "brother", Xie Chengyu's originally flustered eyes suddenly turned cold.
Xie Zhi also saw Han Sixue and was about to scream, but Xie Chengyu suddenly glanced at her fiercely, winked, and waved to the servants.
"This is a misunderstanding."
He had thought about taking the opportunity to tell Han about his feelings for Xie Zhi, and then using today's incident to threaten her into taking Xie Zhi as his concubine.
But he was already a disabled person, and Xie Zhi would never be willing to marry him.
And Han, she actually mentioned her brother Han Siqi and threatened herself?
Then don't blame him for being ruthless.
Xie Zhi sobbed silently, seemed to be frightened, and did not move.
…
In Wanxiangyuan, Qiliang, who had been staring at Xie Zhi, came running over hurriedly.
"Miss, Xie Zhi didn't go to visit Xie Chengyu, but Xie Chengyu went to find Xie Zhi!"
Xie Yao: "Same thing, tell my cousin's wife as well."
Some things are not believed when heard, and you have to see them with your own eyes to believe them and understand them fully.
Qiliang nodded and said, "I will tell Madam Han right away. However, I think Madam Han should have noticed something. Yesterday, I saw her trusted maid asking about Xie Chengyu's whereabouts."
Just as he was about to leave, a flash of lightning flashed through Xie Yao's mind.
She immediately stood up: "Let's go to Xie Zhi's yard immediately!"
Her original intention was to let Han Sixue recognize Xie Chengyu in advance so that she would not be so angry that she would vomit blood.
Fortunately, Xie Zhi went to visit Xie Chengyu. He went to the second courtyard and Han Sixue's maids were there.
But if Xie Chengyu went to find Xie Zhi, and Han Sixue noticed something was wrong and followed him, she would probably end up in a desperate situation...
Xie Yao brought seven ounces of honeysuckle and a lantern, and in less than an incense stick of time she rushed to the attic and broke into Xie Zhi's yard!
Sure enough, Xie Chengyu wanted to silence him!
A servant, holding Xie Chengyu's crutch, approached Han Sixue.
Behind him, Xie Chengyu's eyes were fierce.
The next moment, Xie Yao kicked the servant eight feet away with a flying kick.
With a loud "bang", the servant crashed into the stone bench in the yard and fainted before he could even scream.
Honeysuckle followed behind, hands on hips, and shouted, "How dare you! How dare you attack your master!"
Han Sixue turned around and looked at Xie Yao, tears streaming down her face.
In the dim light, her face was pale and her eyes were clear with tears.
Sometimes, you can’t see the person in front of you clearly throughout your entire life.
Sometimes, it only takes a moment to see through a person.
When she heard Xie Chengyu ordering the servants to silence her, she... woke up completely.
Xie Yao didn't say anything, but just protected her behind him.
When Xie Zhi saw Xie Yao and the maids and servants following her, he knew that the matter could no longer be concealed and immediately screamed.
"Second sister, cousin, help me, save me, my cousin has gone crazy!"
As she spoke, she hurriedly covered her skin.
Xie Chengyu also knew that he was finished.
He originally wanted to silence Han, but Xie Yao came too quickly and he had no time to do anything.
"She seduced me!" Xie Chengyu's eyes rolled around, and he collapsed to the ground, pointing at Xie Zhi and cursing, "Xie Zhi was the one who seduced me first!"
"How could I possibly seduce my cousin? It was my cousin who broke into my house late at night..."
"Bitch, shut up! I'm already injured like this, what can I do to you! It's obvious that this bitch knows that I'm young and promising, and I have relatives like Minister Han, so she called me here and wants to commit herself to me!"
Han Sixue murmured softly: "Yes, you are injured like this, and you still come to find Xie Zhi and want to silence me..."
"Han, you must believe me, you must believe me, I have never done anything to let you down!"
"You're talking nonsense. You're a useless person with a ruined future. I'd be crazy to fall for you! You're the one who wants to force me, cousin. Please make the decision for me."
The two were fighting each other when several maids who had been sent away to make snacks came back.
Aunt Sun, who lived in the attic in the yard and was sorting out accounts, heard the noise and rushed over in panic.
Seeing her daughter's appearance, even Aunt Sun, who was calm, was stunned for a moment.
However, her first reaction was not to ask Xie Zhi if he was okay, but to glance at the people present.
This matter will definitely get out. The most urgent thing is how to preserve Xie Zhi's reputation...
