When he landed on the ground, it was as if all the haze from a year ago had been swept away, and the child was white, fat and healthy. Marquis and Marquis' Wife both liked him very much, and they hated the fact that they couldn't come here everyday to hug him.

However, in this level of liveliness, only Second Young Madam's door was tightly shut, as if she was split into two levels. The liveliness in Aunt Fang was compared to the loneliness in her room, appearing both ironic and desolate.

"Madam, I heard from a few of the mama in the mansion that Aunt Fang has been quite pleased with herself recently, and that everything is under Young Mistress' control." Madam, I heard from a few of the mama in the mansion that Aunt Fang is very pleased lately, and everything is under Young Mistress's control.

Xie Jingxi lay slanted on the bed, while listening to Fang Yu's report of the manor's movements, "It's never wrong to be more cautious, let all the Senior Servants in the mansion wait on you, so that nothing can happen to them."

With his big brother's Eldest Miss in front of him, he really did not dare to let his guard down. Lady Zou had even withdrawn his hands, who knew if the tragedy would happen again.

"Miss!" Ming Yu suddenly ran in, "Miss, Zhang mama came over, she has urgent business with you."

Zhang mama was the mama that accompanied Xie Jingqi in her room. Xie Jingxi was confused, why was she here for, "Quickly go and invite her in."

Xie Jingxi got up and tidied up her clothes, seeing that it was someone from Xie Family, Fang Yu left first, leaving Ming Yu to accompany her in the house. The moment Zhang mama entered, she knelt down, "Third Miss, save our second young miss!"

Zhang mama had always used her nose to look at others, so it was rare for her to be so courteous. Ming Yu went over to help her up, "What did Zhang mama say?

I know that you are busy, so it won't be easy for me to trouble you. But this time, I really don't have any other way, quickly go and persuade Second Young Miss, she's still so young, how could she not want to go to the cold palace? If you go in, it would be the same as dying in the cold palace, but Second Young Miss was left with nothing to say, so she didn't want to go in, and started packing up this morning.

Xie Jingxi was extremely surprised, she had not thought that Xie Jingqi would make such a decision and she did not have to pay attention to it, "Zhang mama, don't be anxious, I will follow you over to take a look, in addition, quickly ask someone to go to Lu Family to invite Big Sis over."

"Sigh, Third Miss, I will listen to you. Our second lady is pointing at you, you must definitely persuade her."

If she was determined to go, no one would be able to stop her. It was unknown if it was the irony that Xie Jingqi had taken the same path as her to save this life in this lifetime.

When he entered Xie Jingqi's room, it was inevitable that he would pass by the house of the Aunt Fang. Xie Jingxi glanced inside, and fortunately, Gu Heng was not there, otherwise, the things that she had promised Gu Yun just now would have been done countless of times. Sigh, this courtyard seemed to really have a curse, and entering seemed like it was not a good thing.

When Xie Jingxi went in, the house was cold and desolate. It was clearly a house facing south, but now that she came in, it was as if she entered an ice cellar. The difference in temperature between the outside and the outside made Xie Jingxi shiver, as if the warm spring wind had not blown in even once.

In her memories, the two sisters had almost never talked alone. Previously, Xie Jingqi never used to look straight at him, and his speech was weird too. Although it had calmed down a lot, it was still a little awkward standing together.

But it was Xie Jingqi who spoke first, "In the end, they have invited you over."

Xie Jingxi observed her eyes, and felt that Xie Jingqi was completely different from before. Her entire temperament looked like a completely different person, but just based on her appearance, she was the most pretentious and beautiful out of the three sisters, adding her usual expression, she was definitely a hateful and headstrong young miss.

"You guys leave first. I need to talk to Second Miss for a bit."

After Xie Jingxi cleaned up the room, he closed the door and the room once again returned to its usual cool temperature. Xie Jingxi sat down opposite of Xie Jingqi and asked, "Second Miss, do you know what it's like to live in a side courtyard?"

Xie Jingqi slightly moved the corner of her mouth, and ridiculed from there, "Look at my current days, how could I be any better than in the guest courtyard?"

Xie Jingxi frowned, but knew that what she said was not wrong, she knew too well what she was feeling right now. In the past, she had never hesitated, and even though she had feelings for Gu Heng, she was still unwilling to live a life of compromise. Xie Jingqi had never possessed anything, and ever since she entered the door, she had lost all her feelings, lost her child, and even lost herself.

"You also feel that my choice is reasonable, right?" Xie Jingqi smiled at her in understanding, "Third sister, previously, eldest sister had told me that you were a man who understood everything, but I didn't believe her before, so I understood it now, so you don't have to advise me, I can't accept Gu Heng here, and I don't care about Marquis Mansion here. To Xie Family, I am the water that was poured out, and they would definitely not allow me to pour this dirty water back, which I have complained about before, but now I understand, it's not that they don't want me, it's that I should give up on them, because I can't ever become what they want me to be, so why should I feel wronged?"

From her point of view, she completely respected Xie Jingqi's choice, but her position did not mean anything, "Second Miss, do you want to hear a few sincere words from me? If you can have the change now, if you can think things through, I would be happy for you from the bottom of my heart, and from my perspective, it would mean that I would completely respect your choice. Although this marriage was a mistake from the very beginning, and Second Miss is also not suitable for this kind of lifestyle, but I still feel that you should have a better life.

Xie Jingqi smiled at her, "Third sister, thank you for being able to say all these things to me. Although at the moment, I still don't like the slyness of your world, I have to admit that you were truly thinking for my sake, but as for Xie Family, I have never helped them out in any way, so don't add any more troubles in the future. After all, by staying in my Marquis Mansion, I cannot guarantee that I will do anything out of line.

Putting aside Xie Jingqi's not-so-pleasing personality, it was actually a rare true nature, and today, it seemed that it was somewhat difficult to obtain. After all, her surroundings were filled with worldly wisdom and benefits, or perhaps she was born with a natural instinct or fate attached to it.

"Second Miss, you have seen through everything. Since it's like this, it's not good for me to advise you anymore."

"Third sister, you don't have to worry too much. You can just tell mother to be at ease. Even if I go to the side courtyard, this family's second young mistress won't be replaced by anyone else." Speaking of which, Xie Jingqi looked at her with a deeper meaning, "No matter how many children someone gives him, she will never be able to become a woman that can stand beside him. Gu Heng will definitely not allow anyone else to live in his heart."

Who said that Xie Jingqi was foolish? She understood everything, and normally, when she went against her, he would really look down on her. Xie Jingxi laughed at herself.

When Xie Jingyi heard Xin'er and came over, she was shocked to see what was happening: "Xie Jingqi, what are you doing?!"

"Big sister, don't try to persuade me anymore. I have already thought it through. I will naturally speak to my mother about it."

Xie Jingyi slapped Xie Jingqi in the face, "You said? What are you going to say! Do you know what you're doing, going to the Yard? Do you think that the courtyard is as free as you think it is? After entering the courtyard, you'll never come out again for the rest of your life, how old are you, do you know how long the rest of your life is? Do you think that you can live such a lonely and quiet life?

Every word was spoken for the sake of her. After all, before one truly experienced despair, there was no way to understand what Xie Jingqi was thinking, and what she said was what Xie Jingxi wanted to say before. She had experienced the days in the house, and it was not as casual as she thought when she was angry, but it was a choice she had made for the rest of her life.

Xie Jingqi covered her face, "Big sister, do you think that I'm not lonely now, or do you think that there's a place for me in your Marquis Mansion now? You might want to say that Aunt Fang has a son, so I can bring him up to be raised as my own son, but what about after this?

Xie Jingyi looked at her with a face filled with fear.
