When the Second Master of the Marquis Anfeng Palace had added Long Fengzi, there was no one in the capital who did not know of it. All the people from His Majesty were envious, especially when there were not many sons of the His Majesty, and they had even asked the Marquis Anfeng in private, but the secret was, the Marquis Anfeng only thought it was a coincidence, and it could be because of Second Young Mistress's family inheritance. When the His Majesty heard this, he suddenly realized something, and he once thought of bringing a Xie Family girl to the harem.
However, since the Xie Family woman was able to take out two married women, she decided to drop the matter. She only gave some items to the Second Master, and let the Marquis Anfeng Residence enjoy a period of glory. Right now, her big brother had died young, the news spread even faster than before. Even Xie Cen who had gone to the Cabinet early in the morning received the consolation of his comrades, but the person who had rushed to the Cabinet to report his funeral had not arrived yet.
Although Xie Jingxi had expected this to happen, she still held onto a sliver of hope. Now that her hopes had been shattered, she didn't even have time to think it over as she rushed to Lady Xu's house without even having time to eat breakfast. Nanny Feng stood guard outside the hut and shot Xie Jingxi a meaningful glance. Xie Jingxi thought that Lady Xu was in bad shape again and entered the house to discover that she was already fully dressed.
"Quickly come with me to Marquis Mansion. My good grandson was raised by them just like that, and your Second Miss, what a lively and healthy person you are, in only two years, has become half a cripple. If you say there's no tricks in Marquis Mansion, then I can't believe it, is it that you think there's no one left in our Xie Clan!"
The Xu family had never had such a noble and noble face. It was as if they were two different people, as if they were completely different when it came to Nannan. Xie Jingwan knew that she had truly gotten anxious this time. She had the attitude of wanting to make a ruckus at the house of the Marquis. She wanted to stop her, but she also knew that the Xu family wouldn't listen to her.
"Mother should at least have some breakfast, Marquis Mansion will be very busy later, you only developed dizziness yesterday, what if you collapse from exhaustion today?" Xie Jingxi walked up to help Lady Xu sit down, and then said to the Li mama who didn't know what to do: "Go to the Lu Manor and ask Big Sis to come over. Tell her that Mother and I will be waiting for her at home, and we will go to Marquis Mansion together."
"Third Miss's words are correct. No matter what, madam has to take care of herself. I'll go to the Lu mansion and invite Big Miss."
"This Marquis Mansion definitely doesn't match with my Xie Family. Pity my Second Miss, when a talent is finally able to get to the ground, the brother she gave birth to will be gone, how do you think she will live the rest of her life …"
Xie Jingxi did not reply, the Lady Xu was just paying attention to her, and now that she was complaining about the two words' Marquis Mansion ', she was trying her best to send the person over to the Marquis Mansion. Xie Jingxi pondered in her heart. In her previous life, his big brother had been strong and healthy, then died from an illness, which was strange. But this time, his big brother had originally been weak.
Xie Jingxi poured a bowl of hot soup for the Lady Xu, and said in a measured voice: "Although big brother is weak at the Innate Realm, I did not hear from the Imperial Physician about any serious symptoms on that day, I only said that it would be difficult to raise children, and it wouldn't be a problem to watch out for later. According to the rules, a family like Marquis Mansion, can't even raise a child no matter how hard it is raised.
Xie Jingxi wanted to say something but hesitated. How could Lady Xu not know about the winding paths of the backyard? With Xie Jingxi's unintentional reminder, Lady Xu seemed to have thought of something and she could not sit still. She quickly drank a few mouthfuls of soup and prepared to leave. This time, Xie Jingxi did not stop her, and quickly left the house with Lady Xu. Luckily, when the young lady was in time, they met outside the door.
Xie Jingyi looked at Xie Jingxi, and Xie Jingxi shook her head, but Xie Jingyi did not ask anything, she went back to his palanquin and followed them to Marquis Mansion.
When they arrived at Second Master's courtyard, it was so quiet that it felt heavy. Lady Zeng had already cried several times when she passed out, and upon hearing that someone from the Xie Clan had arrived, she struggled to get up, only to be supported by others.
When Xie Jingxi and the others came in, only Gu Heng was alone in the garden, he was originally full of energy and vitality, but now he was extremely exhausted. From the moment his brother got sick last night, he had been standing there the whole night, not even closing his eyes.
"Brother-in-law, why are you still standing here? How is your second sister?" Xie Jingyi reminded him, as if she had just awoken from a dream, "She, she is in the room."
The Lady Xu didn't even look at him as he entered the house. From afar, she saw Second Miss sitting on the bed alone with a baby in her arms. The evil fire above her head immediately dissipated as she stared blankly into the distance, and she threw herself at Second Miss as he cried and hugged her.
"My bitter Second Miss …"
Xie Jingxi and Xie Jingyi heard her crying and immediately felt that it was not good. They rushed in together, only then did they see Xie Jingqi holding onto their big brother tightly, looking as though he was suffering from an illness, Xie Jingyi stepped forward and pulled at Lady Xu, "Mother, since second sister is already like that, why bother asking her again, should we stop her first, big brother wait?"
"Who wants to carry my son away!?" I want to see who dares! "My son is sleeping well. Whatever you do, come and disturb her!" Xie Jingqi acted like a madman the moment she heard someone talk about her big brother. She hugged her big brother and leaned against the wall, and just as Lady Xu was about to step forward, she nearly kicked her face, "Go away, go away!"
Lady Xu was frightened by her so much that she did not dare cry anymore, "Alright, alright, let's not disturb him. Big brother has a good sleep, let's not disturb her …"
Xie Jingxi looked around the room and asked, "Why haven't I seen Big Brother's wet nurse?"
After being reminded by her, Xie Jingyi immediately told the girls who were cowering at the side, "What are you guys still doing here? Big brother should be hungry by the time I wake up, why aren't you calling the wet nurse over!"
The few little girls were horrified, but they also felt relieved, and quickly went to call for help. Lady Zeng was supported in, and upon seeing Lady Xu, he began to howl again, "My dear wife, we have no other way, our daughter-in-law does not even recognize Heng`er, your big brother is still waiting for the burial, at least please console me."
A good child of mine who has not been married for more than two years, what kind of appearance have he turned into now? Young Master, what are you doing standing outside the door, where did you go to when Second Miss was giving birth?
Lady Zeng was shocked by her, but she did not show any signs of weakness, "My dear wife, what do you say, when a wife marries, we treat it as our own daughter's pain, we have never wronged her even a little. Even our big brother's heart is hurting, who would hope for them to do something bad?"
Xie Jingyi immediately pulled at Lady Xu, "Mother, speak less. Since Second Sister is still like that, let's not argue anymore."
Hey, what's going on? Why are they arguing?" As soon as Xie Jingyi finished speaking, the fourth lady of the second room entered the room, as if she was watching a good show. "Aunt, isn't it a good deed for you to be misunderstood? How could a family like our Hou Mansion be able to bully a daughter-in-law like you? Big brother was born lacking in health, and it's not rare for him to not be able to raise a child.
Fourth Miss was truly an expert at poking people in the wrong places and adding oil to the fire, with just a few words he had linked two families together. But then, who said that Marquis Mansion belonged to their second house? Lady Zeng was angry to the point that her teeth were itching, but it was not good for her to openly tear off Second House, as Lady Xu was different. She had always been holding back her anger and not being able to get along with Marquis' Wife, in exchange for an insignificant junior from Second House.
"And what the hell are you? How much face do you have to teach us a lesson here!" Lady Xu struggled free from Xie Jingyi, and waved at him, "Which uncultured girl is this, speaking nonsense with this, does laozi have anything to do with it!?"
Normally, she would be dignified and gentle like this, but when she lectured someone, it would not be a vague thought. Fourth Miss was beaten until he staggered, but when he came back to his senses, he immediately rushed forward and almost pushed Lady Xu down to the ground. Being supported by Xie Jingyi, Lady Xu trembled in anger, "It's against the heavens, someone come and kick her out!"
Compared to a Miss Shu from the Gu family's second house who relied on her Marquis Mansion to survive and did not have any rank, anyone could easily carry anyone with an identity as Lady Xu, even if they were inside the Marquis Mansion's house. Lady Zeng had always disliked the second house from the start and actually did not stop them. She only spoke to Gu Heng who was outside the door: "What are you still standing there for, hurry up and stop your mother-in-law."
Gu Heng brought some people and was about to invite the Fourth Miss out, but he never expected that the Fourth Miss would be a powerful being, so he broke away from the crowd and started howling as he squatted on the ground, "Is there a law here? This is our Gu family's place, and outsiders are actually the ones to give orders, just who are you listening to!"
Seeing that the situation was not good enough, Gu Heng was about to drag Fourth Miss out, but who knew that Second Young Madam Xie Jingqi would suddenly rush over from the bed, and placed her big brother on the bed. She was barefoot with her hair in a mess, holding onto a pillow, she directly landed on Fourth Miss's head, then swung it around and smashed it.
Xie Jingqi kicked and smashed it, like a shrew trying to strangle her, "You said you can't take care of anyone, but you can't! My brother is perfectly fine, what are you spouting nonsense for!"
Xie Jingqi was someone who dared to scold, and because she was used to the Lady Xu, she became unruly and unruly, and all the young misses were useless to her. Fourth Miss had already been beaten senseless by her, and she could only hold her head and howl, "Madness, Second Young Mistress has gone mad, someone come quickly, you're going to kill someone …"
Xie Jingqi did not care about her, and directly pulled Fourth Miss's hair and dragged him into the courtyard. For a moment, the entire garden was almost filled with Fourth Miss's pig slaughtering howl, and as everyone saw that Marquis Mansion was about to spill out, the whole family finally reacted, "Quickly hold Second Young Mistress back, it's going to cost our lives …"
