Chapter 680 Third Aunt

Qing Shuang has a rather cold personality and isn't good at speaking.

Qing Shuang could tell from Xing Xing's words that she had good intentions, but she didn't know what to say, so she just said dryly, "It's okay."

Before Xing Xing could say anything, Grandma Da Xi got angry again. She slapped the table beside her and said angrily, "It's okay, it's okay! I hate people like you who don't take their own lives seriously! If I had known you would be like this, why would I have wasted my herbs!"

Da Xi Si Po became angrier and angrier as she spoke. She pointed at the door outside and said coldly, "If that's the case, then leave! Don't bother me anymore!"

Qing Shuang's eyes turned red.

She really got up from the bed slowly, moved off the bed slowly, and walked out.

Xing Xing was shocked, and hurried to pull Qing Shuang: "No, you are serious!"

Qing Shuang's face turned pale, and she said softly to Xing Xing, "I'm sorry for the trouble these days."

Having said that, he walked out again.

Da Xi Si Po was really furious this time. She was even faster than Qing Shuang and slammed the door and walked out!

The sound of the door closing startled both Xingxing and Qingshuang.

Qing Shuang stood there in a daze, not knowing what to do.

She opened her mouth, but finally asked Xing Xing softly: "…Why is mother-in-law so angry?"

Xing Xing sighed and quickly supported the patient: "Alright, that's just the way Grandma Da Xi is. She's actually the best person... We doctors have worked so hard to save the patient, but the patient doesn't appreciate our hard work and just wastes his body. How can she not be angry? Besides, Grandma Da Xi also feels sorry for you. You are only a few years older than me, and you have so many wounds on your body. I don't know how many times you have passed by the Yanwang Palace. You don't take your life seriously, which is equivalent to trampling on Grandma Da Xi's kindness. How can Grandma Da Xi not be angry?"

Qing Shuang became more confused as she listened.

Her cold eyes and brows seemed to be filled with a thick mist, with nothing in them but deep confusion and helplessness.

Looking at Qing Shuang's condition, Xing Xing sighed and helped her onto the bed: "Alright, didn't you say you wanted to repay Grandma Da Xi for saving your life? Just take good care of yourself and don't waste those precious herbs that Grandma Da Xi gave you. That will be your way of repaying her."

Qing Shuang was silent for a long time before she nodded.

She raised her eyes to look at Xing Xing and said in a serious tone: "... Miss Yu, thank you."

Xing Xing sighed, "You don't have to thank me. You almost killed my fourth brother before, and I was angry, but my fourth brother didn't mind, so I can't say anything. I can tolerate you because of Grandma Da Xi. Don't let her down. If she scolds you to leave, just harden your heart and say you won't leave. Take good care of your injuries, and then stay by Grandma Da Xi's side to pay back the debt for the rare medicinal materials you used, understand?"

Qing Shuang really understood this time. She said, "I understand."

After Xingxing finished persuading this side, she hurried out to find Daxi Sipo, intending to persuade the younger one before coaxing the older one.

Da Xisi Po didn't go far. She was sitting in a pavilion beside the frozen lake and sulking.

Xing Xing stepped forward and cried out, "Oh my!" She hugged Grandma Da Xi's shoulders and said, "Grandma Da Xi, it's freezing here. If you want to stay here, I'll ask the maid to make you another charcoal basin."

Grandma Da Xi was originally very angry, but Xing Xing came over to her cute and well-behaved, hugging and coaxing her, so she couldn't vent her anger on Xing Xing at all, and she immediately smiled.

However, when Xingxing came over, because she had to bend down to hug Daxisipo, the pendant on her neck was suddenly exposed.

That was what the old lady of Duke Xin gave to Xingxing last time.

A small jade-colored fish.

Xingxing wore a red rope around her neck, which looked pretty good.

It was the first time that Da Xi Si Po saw this jade-colored fish. Her expression changed instantly. She grabbed the jade-colored fish and asked in a somewhat inappropriate manner: "Where did this come from?"

Xing Xing was stunned for a moment, then told the truth: "It was given to me by the old lady of Duke Xin last time."

As she spoke, Xing Xing lowered her head, took down the jade fish pendant, and handed it to Grandma Da Xi: "What's the matter, Grandma Da Xi, is there any problem with this little fish?"

Da Xi Si Po frowned and said nothing. She held the jade-colored fish in her hand and looked at it for a long time. She looked a little dazed for a moment.

Xing Xing did not urge her and just stayed quietly beside Da Xi Si Po.

Da Xi Si Po looked at it for a long time, and seemed to have made up her mind, and then she put the jade-colored fish around Xing Xing's neck.

Xing Xing looked at Da Xi Si Po in confusion.

Da Xi Si Po said nothing else, only said: "Wear it properly."

Xingxing said "Oh".

After this little incident, Da Xi Si Po was a little distracted. She didn't care about being angry with Qing Shuang and was easily persuaded by Xing Xing.

When Qing Shuang saw Grandma Daxi coming back, she assured her awkwardly, "Grandma, I won't do that again in the future."

Da Xi Si Po snorted and ignored Qing Shuang.

But he didn't say anything about chasing Qing Shuang away.

It seemed like the matter had just passed.

But Bai Xiaofeng became suspicious of Qing Shuang's origins.

She investigated privately for two days but found nothing. So on the fifth day of the New Year, when Xing Xing and Grandma Da Xi were visiting Duke Xin's Mansion, she went to visit Qing Shuang.

Bai Xiaofeng did not come alone. She brought a lunch box containing nourishing ginseng soup.

The little maid who served Qing Shuang was called Caixia. She was stunned when she saw Bai Xiaofeng coming over.

Qing Shuang was seriously injured, but she recovered well. She was still able to sit up with some difficulty a few days ago, but by the fifth day of the New Year, she could sit up without any major problems.

Caixia brought a big pillow for Qingshuang so that she could sit comfortably.

Bai Xiaofeng sat beside Qing Shuang's bed, looking at her, and sighed, "What a pretty girl. Last time I wanted to ask, how did you get so many wounds on your body? The blood was so profuse that it scared me."

Qing Shuang was not good at speaking and didn't know how to deal with people, but she had heard Caixia mention that the woman in front of her was the second wife of the Yu family.

By this calculation, it means that she was the biological mother of the person she killed.

Although Qing Shuang did not regret having killed Yu Yonggui, she was now recuperating in the Yu family, which meant that she had to accept the Yu family's favor.

Qing Shuang still felt inexplicably guilty when facing this Second Madam Bai.

Especially since Madam Bai was still so kind and caring towards her at this moment, Qing Shuang felt a little at a loss.

Qing Shuang couldn't help but grab the quilt beneath her, her fingers clenched.

"I..." Qing Shuang's voice was hoarse. She said "I" for a long time and didn't know how to respond to Bai Xiaofeng.

Bai Xiaofeng was still looking at her with burning eyes, so Qing Shuang could only bite the bullet and say, "...I was hurt by my enemy."

Bai Xiaofeng was even more surprised: "How can a young girl like you have such a vicious enemy? ... But don't worry too much, my family is quite well-known in the court. We will definitely help you get justice and send the bad guys who bullied you to the government!"

This time it was even more difficult for Qing Shuang to answer.

She couldn't just tell Bai Xiaofeng that most of the bad guys who "bullied" her had been hacked to death by her and could not be sent to the authorities.

There is one more left, and that is your son...

Qing Shuangrao could no longer speak after saying this, and he also knew that he couldn't say this to Bai Xiaofeng.

Qing Shuang stuttered for a long time and was unable to speak.

Bai Xiaofeng actually felt a little bit of sympathy.

She brought out the ginseng soup she brought and handed it to Qing Shuang: "...The last time I came, I saw you covered in blood, and heard you say you had no father or mother. The more I thought about it, the more uncomfortable I felt. Come, little girl, this ginseng soup was made by me, try it."

Qing Shuang is actually a girl who doesn't know how to deal with other people's kindness.

She spent the first half of her life in an organization that specialized in training killers.

Qing Shuang no longer wanted to think about how she had gotten through those days. Later, the assassin organization was destroyed because it had offended someone, and the remaining assassins left the organization under different names, either living in seclusion or taking on private jobs under aliases.

No one has ever made ginseng soup for Qing Shuang.

So at this moment Qing Shuangmu took the ginseng soup from Bai Xiaofeng's hand in a daze and stayed there for a long time.

Bai Xiaofeng said, "Is it too hot?"

She came over and blew it gently.

Qing Shuang was a little flustered. She picked up the bowl of ginseng soup and drank it all in one gulp.

Bai Xiaofeng was stunned by what she saw.

How come this girl looks so determined after drinking ginseng soup?

Now it was Bai Xiaofeng's turn to stutter: "No, isn't it hot?"

Qing Shuang put the empty bowl aside: "It's not hot."

Rao used to be as eloquent as a white phoenix, but now he doesn't know what to say.

She could only ask Qing Shuang indirectly how Qing Shuang knew Da Xi Si Po.

Qing Shuang said, "I was seriously injured and fell off the cliff. I lay at the bottom of the cliff for several days and was found by my mother-in-law who passed by. When she saw that I was not dead yet, she dragged me home and gave me a lot of medicinal herbs to bring me back to life."

Qing Shuang said it lightly.

However, Bai Xiaofeng could hear some of the thrill she felt at that time from Qing Shuang's words.

"Those who survive a great disaster will surely be blessed in the future. I think you, a girl, must be a very blessed person." Bai Xiaofeng comforted.

Qing Shuang pulled the corners of her mouth and tried her best to smile.

She felt that for someone like her, how could she have any blessings?

"Speaking of which... do you know my Gui Ge'er?" Bai Xiaofeng suddenly asked tentatively, but his eyes were looking at Qing Shuang intently.

Qing Shuang's face froze. Just when she didn't know what to say, she heard a maid's report from outside. It turned out that a good friend of Bai Xiaofeng came to the house to talk to Bai Xiaofeng. Qing Shuang was considered to have "escaped a disaster".

Bai Xiaofeng could only stand up with some regret: "Miss Qingshuang, you should have a good rest. I have something else to do, so I will leave first. If you need anything here, or if the servants in the mansion neglect you and Grandma Daxi, just send Caixia to look for me."

Bai Xiaofeng left in a hurry.

Qing Shuang was sweating profusely.

She felt uncomfortable all over.

The Yu family treated her so well, but she was the murderer who almost killed Yu Yonggui before.

Although Yu Yonggui didn't mind, she... still felt like sitting on pins and needles.

…

Xing Xing and Grandma Da Xi came to the Xin Guo Mansion to check the pulse of the Xin Guo couple.

In front of the old lady of Duke Xin, Xing Xing looked at Da Xi Si Po calmly, and suddenly pulled out the jade fish from her neck, and asked the old lady of Duke Xin with a smile: "Old lady, this jade fish you gave me last time is really beautiful. The more I look at it, the more I like it. This fish looks like an antique. I wonder what its origin is?"

The old lady of Duke Xin smiled kindly and said, "This jade-colored fish is indeed quite old. It was obtained by the old Duke when he was on a expedition. I can't tell its exact origin at the moment."

Xingxing nodded thoughtfully.

The old lady of Duke Xin took Xingxing's hand and said with a smile: "If you like this, I have a lot more in the warehouse. Why don't you go with me to the warehouse to pick a few?"

Xing Xing quickly refused: "No need, no need. I can't come here every time to get your good stuff. If I do that, I won't dare to come again."

Only then did the old lady of Duke Xin stop.

Da Xi Si Po sat aside drinking tea, with no other expression on her face.

It seemed like she had no interest in the jade-colored fish that Xingxing had specifically asked about.

While the two were talking, someone else came to pay his respects to the old lady of Duke Xin.

But he is from the Jiao family of Zhoushui.

Zhoushui Jiao family is Jiao’s maternal family.

The main branch of the Jiao family is in Zhoushui. Although that branch of the Jiao family once served as an official in the capital, they were transferred to the local area to serve as local officials a few years ago.

Therefore, when the people from Zhoushui Jiao's family came this time, Jiao was extremely happy.

The Jiao family brought a lot of holiday gifts this time, and the gift list alone was a thick stack.

The old lady of Duke Xin was still a little stunned. She was about to say that her in-laws were too polite, but she saw the people from the Jiao family smilingly saying that Mingzhu was almost old enough to get married, and some of these were to help Mingzhu.

This was the first time Jiao heard about this. She was stunned for a moment, her eyes quickly swept across Xingxing's face, but she still smiled and said, "...Zhuzhu is still young, there is no rush to get married."

Apparently, Jiao had not yet written the letter to tell the people of Zhoushui Jiao's family that Yu Mingzhu was not her biological daughter.

Therefore, the people of Jiao family regarded Yu Mingzhu as their niece.

The smile on Lady Xin's face faded a little.

However, in front of the Jiao family, the old lady of Duke Xin did not point it out directly, which saved the Jiao family's face.

"Come to think of it, why didn't I see Mingzhu?" The people who came to the Jiao family this time were Jiao's third cousin and his family. The one who spoke was Jiao's third sister-in-law, whom Yu Mingzhu always called her third aunt.

The third aunt looked around for a long time but couldn't see Yu Mingzhu, and she was a little puzzled.

Jiao smiled awkwardly and said, "...Zhuzhu is not feeling well and is still resting in bed."

In fact, it was the old lady of Duke Xin who gave the order, which meant that Yu Mingzhu would be moved out after Mingzhu recovered. Since then, Yu Mingzhu has been bedridden and did not recover until the end of the year.

Aunt Jiao San was obviously a little anxious. She said, "Ouch!" "I didn't know Mingzhu was sick. How serious is her illness? This time I came here, I also brought a 500-year-old ginseng. Let's see if Mingzhu can use it?"
