After finishing all his affairs, Xue Zhiyi finally had some free time in the afternoon.
I wanted to take a walk in the courtyard, but I saw Fu Rongxin and Xue Tingsheng talking in the pavilion.
Qiuyun said, "It seems that my cousin already knows."
Xue Zhiyi smiled: "It's worth it that I specially calculated the time to send Caizhi to Zhefangyuan. Next, Fu Rongxin should also make a move."
After seeing Fu Rongxin leave, Xue Zhiyi walked up casually and sat down next to Xue Tingsheng.
Xue Tingsheng looked in the direction where Fu Rongxin left for a while, and when he looked at Xue Zhiyi again, his expression became a little colder.
Xue Zhiyi asked knowingly, "Brother, what are you looking at?"
Xue Tingsheng paused and then asked something irrelevantly: "Zhiyi, what do you think of... Rongxin?"
Xue Zhiyi's eyebrows jumped, but he pretended not to notice and said, "Rongxin is beautiful, talented, and polite to others."
After that, she turned to Xue Tingsheng and asked, "It's not the first day you met her, why are you asking me this?"
Xue Tingsheng smiled at her, a rare sight. However, his smile was a bit shy. "Tell me, if I wanted to give her a piece of jewelry, what kind would she like?"
Xue Zhiyi's eyes widened: "What do you want to do?"
Without waiting for Xue Tingsheng's answer, she said in disbelief: "You don't want to marry..."
"Keep your voice down!" Although he was reminded like this, Xue Tingsheng did not deny it.
Great!
Xue Zhiyi almost applauded in his heart.
The uncle forcibly took possession of his niece, the brother coveted his sister... The Xue family was such a lively drama!
She even hoped that the two of them would be done with each other.
In trying not to laugh, Xue Zhiyi's cheeks were almost stiff.
How should she react at this time?
In fact, she and Xue Tingsheng had not been very close since childhood, and she didn't know how to get along with each other as siblings.
Then, imitating the scene when Zhao Lian threw a tantrum at Zhao Shen, she stamped her feet and stood up, shocked and aggrieved: "How can this be possible!"
Xue Tingsheng's eyes moved: "Why not? Even my father and mother would think this is a good thing to strengthen the relationship."
What's more, he and Rong are in the same boat.
Otherwise, why would Rong Xin be so concerned when Rong Ziying approached him? She was clearly jealous!
Xue Zhiyi didn't know what Xue Tingsheng was thinking, otherwise he would have been unable to hold it back.
She continued to act: "Are you still my brother? Fu Rongxin treated me like that in front of His Royal Highness Prince Gong, and you still want to marry her?"
"Stop it!" Xue Tingsheng got angry and stood up. "It's you who's not as good as Rongxin in piano skills. Why are you being unreasonable now?"
Xue Zhiyi acted more and more aggrieved: "I don't care, just give up on this idea. Dad values family background and won't let you marry her. Mom values Rongxin and won't allow her to be a concubine. What's more, Mom is already thinking about choosing a husband for Rongxin. You don't have a chance!"
"What?" Upon hearing this, Xue Tingsheng collapsed to the ground in despair.
Xue Zhiyi snorted exaggeratedly and left angrily.
Xue Tingsheng felt a pang of pain in his heart: No matter what, as long as it was for Rongxin, he could find a way to convince his parents.
So what if she was a concubine? As long as their love was as strong as gold and she had her mother's favor, Rong Xin could still live a good life by his side.
He sat there gloomily for a long time when he heard the servant come in and report, "Master, something bad has happened!"
Xue Tingsheng was displeased: "What nonsense are you talking about on New Year's Day?"
The servant was panicking: "Miss Rong just fainted!"
When Rong Ziying was mentioned, he became even more disgusted: "If you fainted, then so be it. Why are you so reckless?"
The servant slapped his thigh and said, "It was my cousin who pushed Miss Rong down the stairs, and that's why she fainted! Madam is already in Zhefang Courtyard!"
When Xue Tingsheng heard that Fu Rongxin was in trouble, he could no longer sit still and rushed to Zhefangyuan.
…
When Xue Tingsheng arrived, Rong Ziying was still unconscious. Xue Zhiyi and Fu Rongxin were also there, and even Xue Panrou came to watch the fun.
Chuntao knelt on the ground and cried, "My young lady is straightforward. She said a few words that upset my cousin, so she pushed my young lady!"
Although Fu Rongxin looked aggrieved, she was not panicked. She pushed Rong Ziying on purpose. She wanted the fact that Rong Ziying was pregnant to be exposed in public.
She was crying, "Aunt, I didn't. I don't know why. After I said a few words to Sister Ziying, she suddenly collapsed..."
Xue Panrou restrained her temper, but she would not forget her grudge against Fu Ling, especially since Rong Ziying was still her cousin in terms of relationship.
She asked, "Cousin, is she made of paper? If you don't touch her, how can she fall down with a gust of wind?"
Fu Ling, who still didn't know what was going on, couldn't stand seeing someone attacking her precious daughter. "Second Mother has just been released. I'm afraid she doesn't know that although her cousin isn't made of paper, her heart is stained with ink. She's a completely black-hearted person."
After that, he warned Chuntao: "Chuntao, don't think that I can't punish you just because you are from Cenzhou. If you slander and defame my Xue family, I can still bring you to justice!"
Chuntao, however, kept kowtowing and insisted that it was Fu Rongxin who pushed Rong Ziying.
Seeing this, how could Xue Tingsheng bear it? He rushed in: "Mother, you know, Rongxin has a gentle personality. It is Rong Ziying who has hurt Rongxin time and time again. I'm afraid this time is also a frame-up!"
Fu Ling didn't notice Xue Tingsheng's abnormality for a while, and was even a little glad that the relationship between the two siblings was so deep.
At this moment, the doctor also came.
Fu Ling glanced at Rong Ziying beneath the heavy bed curtains and said, "Take her pulse. I want to see what kind of precious body she has that could allow her to remain unconscious for so long after falling down the stairs."
