Chapter 459: The last time I was attacked, it was effective very quickly
Sang Zhixia said worriedly, "What if the mistress gets angry and harms my mother? If she wants to silence us, then..."
"Won't."
Xu Yu slowly loosened Sang Zhixia's clenched fingers and said calmly, "I've already arranged everything."
"She herself was constantly ill, her children were also facing setbacks, and General Sang's career was frustrated. The idea that it was a conflict of celestial forces had already taken root in people's minds."
"At a time like this, the words of criticism from a Taoist priest are more effective than anything else. She will suppress her resentment and be obedient."
Because of what the Taoist said, Madam Sang was afraid that more accidents would happen, so she didn't dare to take anyone's life.
Aunt Xie will be sent to Qingliang Temple outside the city under the pretext of recuperating from illness, and her youngest son will be attacked by robbers on the way to the Taoist temple to visit.
Xu Yu went over all the details in his mind, making sure nothing was missed, and then he said, "A huge fire will break out at Qingliang Temple, and no one will survive."
"When the time comes, our people will pick up my mother-in-law and brother-in-law and escort them all the way until they arrive safely in the northwest."
When they arrived in the northwest, the Sang family decided not to pursue the matter any further regarding the dead.
From now on, whether it is supporting the mother-in-law or educating the brother-in-law, she can act according to Sang Zhixia's wishes and will no longer be restricted by anyone.
Xu Yu started planning this matter very early.
During this period, he managed to get Zhao Zhongquan to accept his brother-in-law as his disciple, so that the tiny kid could be the first to walk out of the Sang family's door.
As for the mother-in-law, it's even easier.
A concubine who has fallen out of favor and is still a thorn in the mistress's eyes, no one actually cares about her life or death.
As for the Sang family's mistress, who was bedridden...
A hint of coldness flashed across Xu Yu's lips, and he thought to himself, what's the big deal if I lose some lifespan due to an illness?
Sang Zhixia suffered countless grievances when she was in the boudoir and almost lost her life at one point, all thanks to this mistress.
It was very polite of Xu Yu not to take her life directly.
Sang Zhixia went over Xu Yu's words several times in her mind and couldn't help asking, "When did this all get planned? Why didn't you tell me about this before?"
"Because the matter is not yet settled, I don't want to give you a false hope."
Xu Yu reached out and stroked the loose hair at Sang Zhixia's temples, chuckling softly, "I didn't want to tell you before we arrived in the northwest, for fear you'd worry."
"But now I see that you are getting more and more worried, it's not good to hide it anymore."
Sang Zhixia opened her mouth but no sound came out, only the corners of her eyes were inexplicably stained with a slight red.
Seeing this, Xu Yu said with a smile: "Zhizhi, we can't drop golden beans."
"Everyone's eyes are on you when you get home. If you go in and cry, I'll be skinned alive by the whole family when you leave."
Sang Zhixia didn't want to cry at first.
However, during pregnancy, emotions fluctuate uncontrollably. As soon as Xu Yu finished speaking, the corners of her eyes were wet. Without making any sound, tears fell uncontrollably and could not be stopped.
At first, Xu Yu could still find a way to comfort her, but when he really had no other choice, he could only wipe his tears with a handkerchief and dared not say a word.
Sang Zhixia lost control of her emotions and tossed and turned for a while, and she didn't know when she fell asleep leaning against Xu Yu.
Xu Yu carefully carried the sleeping person to the bed and placed him there. After making sure that the person would not wake up for a while, he tiptoed out of the bedroom.
In the small courtyard outside the bedroom, several little cubs glared at each other, their round eyes filled with anger.
Xu Yanran's face flushed with anger. She lowered her voice and gritted her teeth, "Brother, what on earth are you doing?"
"Sister-in-law is pregnant now, why are you angry with her?"
Xu Yu said expressionlessly, "I don't have any."
"I……"
"I heard everything!"
Xu Mingyang cried out as Xu Yanran pinched him so hard that he grimaced. He covered his pinched arm and said, "We just came to bring sweet soup to my sister-in-law, and I heard her crying! And you still quibble that you didn't!"
"Xu Mingyang, you..."
"Brother, you are wrong."
Xu Mingxu's face was icy cold, and disapproval was written all over his face, which looked only five points like Xu Yu. He said sternly, "Grandpa Hu has already told Sister Yanran that Sister-in-law can't be wronged right now, otherwise it will be bad for her health."
"that is."
Xu Jinxi was irritated that Xu Yu had taken Sang Zhixia away and left her there for over half a year. She puffed her cheeks in anger and said, "Big Brother is just not good."
"Brother, wait a minute. I'm going to complain to mother right now!"
"I'm going to let my mother spank you!"
The little ones holding the sweet soup turned around and ran away indignantly. Xu Yu was a moment too slow to catch them. When he chased them out, he received several reproachful glances from them.
Amidst the blaming looks from many people, Xu Yu closed his eyes without a word to defend himself.
Seeing this, Qi Lao, who was given a place to live by Xu Minghui, chuckled and patted Xu Yu's shoulder meaningfully: "Good boy."
Mr. Qi walked out of the door slowly with his hands behind his back, saying only that he wanted to go out for a walk.
Xu Yu turned his head and stared at his shoulder that had been patted. He caught a glimpse of a sweet fragrance lingering around his nose, and his face suddenly changed.
"Stop right there, old man! Are you going to…"
"Oh, it's so lively?"
Jiang Yubai came uninvited and walked into the Xu family's gate with ease. He stretched out his arm to stop Xu Yu.
Jiang Yubai ignored the gloom on Xu Yu's face, smiled and put his arm around Xu Yu's shoulders and said, "I finally waited for you. I thought you didn't want to come back and were deliberately hiding from me."
Xu Yu instinctively wanted to push Jiang Yubai away, but when he turned his head and saw his hand hooked on his shoulder, he withdrew his hand and said lightly: "This is my home."
"What happened to me going home?"
"I didn't say anything about you. Of course you can go home."
Jiang Yubai hooked his arm around Xu Yu with a brotherly air and sighed, "When you weren't home, Xu Minghui kept ordering me around. I almost did all the work for you. Shouldn't you come with me to take a look?"
Xu Yu and Sang Zhixia arrived home a month later than expected, and most of the preparations for the autumn harvest had already been completed.
Now all that’s left is to record the grain and store it in the warehouse. Jiang Yubai has been waiting for this day.
After all, the autumn harvest only happens once a year, and if you miss it, you will never get it again.
If we don't seize the time to intercept the food before it has a specific destination, we may not be able to get a share of it.
Jiang Yubai grabbed Xu Yu and was about to walk out. After taking a few steps, he asked curiously, "Why do you smell so sweet? Did you steal your sister-in-law's rouge and put it on yourself?"
Xu Yu gave him a look that was difficult to describe: "Want to know?"
Jiang Yubai curiously moved closer and sniffed carefully: "What is it?"
"have no idea."
Under Jiang Yubai's puzzled gaze, Xu Yu said seriously, "At least I don't know at the moment."
"But it shouldn't be too late to reveal the answer. We'll know what it is tomorrow morning at the latest."
Mr. Qi never waits until the next day to deal with him.
It was the same last time I got infected, and the effect was very quick.
There is an old vicious person who is vindictive and never lets go of any grudges around me, and the surprise comes so suddenly.
Xu Yu pushed Jiang Yubai, who was practically hanging on him, aside and strode forward. Jiang Yubai sniffed the sweet fragrance lingering on his fingertips suspiciously and said curiously, "Isn't it just rouge? How could you not know this?"
