Madam Qi actually listened silently without getting angry. Then, she thought carefully before saying, "Is it because Master Qing knew the details of the Tan family that he was assassinated? In other words, this old witch's background is questionable? Is there something she cannot show to the public?"

Wen Yu admired her mother-in-law a little, "Mom, you are able to grasp the key points!"

Madam Qi smiled calmly, "Although I am also very sad that Master Qing was injured, I have to say that if this can reveal the truth that I didn't dare to think of before, then I will be... so happy! Is it at Princess Huiduan's house?"

"Yes. Next, we will investigate. Mother, when Grandfather brought Tan back, Guard Zhang died outside. Now, his grandson... Look at me, I forgot to tell you something, it's disgusting!"

Wen Yu told Madam Qi about Qi Yue's affairs again.

Mrs. Qi received too much news today, all of which she had not dared to think about before. She blinked and looked at her son and his wife.

Suddenly she smiled...

"Sure enough, he is of the same lineage as that witch. Can we reveal this first?!" Mrs. Qi's eyes sparkled.

"Mother, Zhang Yuan is an upright man, and I still want to use him. The yard was rented in his name. Now, if anything is found there, that devil will probably blame it on him. So, we have to think about it."

"...Ayu, you have arranged everything very well. That witch likes to kill people by destroying their hearts. I will ask your uncle tomorrow if he has any suitable guards, and then I will find a few more for you. Are you exhausted? Go back and rest!"

After Wen Yu and his wife left, Madam Qi asked her maid to go to the front to find Qi Xiao, "Master, Madam said she will go back to her parents' home tomorrow to bring some things back. She originally wanted Master Wu to accompany her, but Master Wu is not available. I want to ask if you have time."

The old woman was not polite when she spoke.

Qi Xiao was very angry: So Lao Wu was busy and asked him to go with him? But now, although he was angry, he still nodded sullenly.

…

The next morning, Tan's men didn't hear any more news.

She couldn't help but wonder, after such a big incident, the girl was still able to keep her composure. She hadn't heard from Li Qun yet, and generally speaking, Li Qun wouldn't contact her easily.

Wen Yu and Qi Wu went out early again and went to the Princess's Mansion first.

The doctor said that Master Qing had a high fever last night, but it seems to have subsided a little today, so everything is not too bad. There are too many people in this room, so it is not suitable for him to stay here, so Master Qing has been moved to a small room next door.

In the big room, a large desk was set up, and Yibai was already working there. Next to it was a rack made of woven rattan, on which were hung the outlines of clothes, pinned with various small needles.

Thinking of yesterday, Zhuzhu told her that Hu Fei was also so skillful, Wen Yu couldn't help but sigh, "Dong Hu Xi Bai, it really lives up to their reputation. Yesterday Zhuzhu said that Mr. Hu's snacks were better than hers. Seeing you again today... I can't believe it.

It's fine if they are smart and knowledgeable, but how come they are so skillful? It seems that wisdom is universal, and one side is smart, and many sides are smart."

Yi Bai smiled and said, "It's not that mysterious actually. Take me for example, I am very smart in some places, but clumsy in others. The range of emotions I experience is also narrower than that of others."

"You are doing well. Mr. Hu was shocked by the death of Mrs. Hu and was confused for a while! He ended up on the streets and became a beggar. It was Zhuzhu and the others who saved him."

"Mr. Hu was born with a smooth life, so he has a weak tolerance! I..." He looked outside, "I am not a generous person. It's just that I have to adjust myself."

"Okay! Don't think about the past. Look at me, everything is going smoothly now, right? But can you imagine what my life was like when I was a kid at home?"

Yi Bai smiled: "Okay, let's not talk about it. Look at this..."

Wen Yu lingered here for a while and then left with Qi Wu.

When Mrs. Qi brought Qi Xiao in, they saw a man sitting on a high stool.

A head of long, extremely black and smooth hair, tied at the neck with a cloth rope. Two long eyebrows, eyes downcast as he looked at something on the table, eyelashes covering his eyes, his hands doing something, his expression focused and quiet...

She was wearing an ordinary cotton gown, with her fair neck exposed at the collar.

Madam Qi and Qi Xiao, who was following behind her, fainted all of a sudden. Qi Xiao in particular even cried out.

Yi Bai heard the voice, turned around and looked, his eyes were bright and clear, like an autumn pond.

"Mother! He..." Qi Xiao pointed stupidly.

Madam Qi ignored him and came in to ask softly, "Are you Master Qing's nephew?"

Yibai put down the things in his hand and said, "Is it Madam Qi? I'm sorry that Yibai's legs are inconvenient and I can't stand up to greet you. Madam, please don't blame me."

His voice...

Yi Bai smiled faintly, "You are too polite, madam."

Madam Qi was so happy. She thought about how she would slap that bastard in the face when the depression in her heart was gone! This feeling was indescribably wonderful.

"Are you helping out in the store?"

"Yes. My aunt is injured, and I'm afraid the business of the store will be affected to a certain extent. I want to do what I can."

Madam Qi nodded in approval: "Okay, thank goodness for your help. We just met the doctor in the corridor, and we took a look at Master Qing. My brothers from my mother's family have traveled to many places, and they have medicinal herbs from all over the place. I have already told the doctor, please make a list for me of what you need."

"Thank you ma'am!"

"We are all family, stop being polite! You really are exactly like that person..." Mrs. Qi sighed.

Yibai was also somewhat touched. His wife knew his life experience, yet she could still say such words.

Qi Xiao, that silly boy, looked Yi Bai up and down endlessly when no one paid attention to him.

Why are there such similar people in the world? "Mother, he and Aunt Xiuyun are partners, right?" he asked foolishly.

Madam Qi turned around and glared at him: "Don't talk nonsense! They just look alike. How can that person match Yi Bai's demeanor and temperament?"

Qi Xiao was scolded but he didn't care. He was simply too shocked.

Madam Qi said a few more words to Yi Bai, and then took Qi Xiao out. The two of them sat in the princess's garden, basking in the sun.

This is a rare act of intimacy between mother and son.

"Qi Xiao, I will tell you everything today. Whether you believe it or not is up to you..." Mrs. Qi told him about Yuanyuan's incident.

How could Qi Xiao believe it? But now he didn't dare to yell or walk away, and he didn't dare to let his mother see that he didn't believe it.

"If it weren't for Wen Yu, Yuanyuan would have been in trouble. I, your mother, would have no face to live. I might have died on the spot..."

"Mother..." Qi Xiao was shocked when he heard this.

"Qi Xiao, it's true that I hate the old lady, and it's also true that I dislike your father and Aunt Xiuyun, but no matter what, the three of them combined are not as good as Yuanyuan in the slightest. I will not use Yuanyuan's safety and reputation to attack them."

"Mother, I know! You are very proud and would not do such a thing." Qi Xiao agreed.

"This incident originated from the time when Master Qing came into the mansion..." Then Madam Qi continued to tell the story. "Afterwards, Wen Yu came to ask me about it, but Aunt Xiuyun has always been a thorn in my heart, and I don't know much.

So the two of them discussed that if they had a chance to see Tan, they would know if she was an old member of the Bai family. As a result, you know... Tan was fine, and she had a large group of people waiting for Master Qing to come to measure clothes. Suddenly, she fell ill and didn't even meet him! When she got better, she left the house mysteriously, and then Master Qing, you just saw it..."

"But mother, she is a poor girl, how could she have such manpower? Grandfather was injured and sent to the small mountain village, and it was she who saved him, so there is nothing wrong with that!"

"Wen Yu and the others will continue to investigate. Tan's heart is on the Qi family's title and property. I guess your grandfather is planning to give the title to Qi Youduan. Tan handed over most of the family's property to Qi Hua. Your father is content with Aunt Xiuyun. But what do you have?"

Qi Xiao's mind was a mess. Yes, he had also realized it during this period of time that he had nothing in his hands.

"I asked you to see all this today because I wanted to tell you that ever since she touched Yuanyuan, mother and her have been enemies forever. Moreover, the hatred has turned from hidden to open. You have had a deep relationship with her since childhood, so you can't bear to think of the worst. If you think it's good, you are kind and righteous. If you think it's bad, you are stupid.

However, you were born after ten months of pregnancy. Your mother will not make things difficult for you and will not let you choose sides. However, you have to be careful. She is always killing people and if she needs to hurt you to hit me, she will not show mercy. "

Qi Xiao said sincerely: "Mother, if what you said is true, your son will certainly stand by your side without hesitation."

"Okay. We'll go back to the Cui family later and ask your grandfather to find a reason for you to leave!"

"Then, what about Minghui?" Qi Xiao was still thinking about his wife.

"Xiaobaoer, I will find a way to let her go with Yuanyuan. Okay, let's go!"

Madam Qi laughed secretly: Xu? I'm not a pushover!

I'm so tired. I want to take a rest.
