Chapter 464: Revealed

Madam Wei’s courtyard was connected to an entire peach garden. If one went out the back door, one could not see the end.
The rain was pouring, and the smell of soil mixed with the fragrance of peaches was a little sweet.
“Ouch!”
Yuchi Xiu fell to the ground with a few big peaches.
He turned around and glared at a certain fat girl. “Woman! I’m warning you to be gentle! Otherwise… I’ll eat your peach!”
Su Xiaoxiao specially picked a few of the largest ones. If she was any more impudent, he would bite them one by one!
It was really a particularly ferocious threat!
Yuchi Xiu chuckled. “What can you do to me?” Su Xiaoxiao said, “I’ll draw your nude photo and send it to Yuniang!”
Yuchi Xiu looked confused. “What’s a nude photo?”
Su Xiaoxiao glanced at him meaningfully.
Yuchi Xiu felt a chill in his lower abdomen and immediately clamped his legs!
“What a strong wind.”
Ping’er was cleaning the branches that Madam Wei had cut when she suddenly felt a cold wind. She said to Madam Wei, “Madam, I’ll go see if the back door was blown open by the wind.” Madam Wei nodded.
Ping’er got up and left the room.
Thinking that the back door was not far and there was a shed in the aisle, she did not wear a raincoat and only held an oil paper umbrella.
“The wind really blew the door open. Strange. I clearly put the bolt in the door.” Ping’er muttered in confusion and walked forward to close the two back doors.
Just as there was only one small gap left, two wet hands suddenly reached in and blocked the door. Ping’er was shocked. “Ah!”
The door was slowly opened.
Amidst the lightning and thunder, a chubby figure walked in with an indifferent expression.
Ping’er’s first reaction was that she had seen a ghost.
When the other party took off her bamboo hat, Ping’er was shocked. “Miss…
Miss su?!”
The cold wind blew through the window.
Ping’er lowered her head and walked in trembling.
“Come in and close the door,” Madam Wei said.
Ping’er slowly crossed the threshold.
Madam Wei was about to ask what was wrong when she glanced around and saw two shadows on the ground.
She slowly placed the cut flowers into the vase. “Go boil a pot of water to make
tea. ”
“Yes.” Ping’er turned around and went to the kitchen to boil water.
Su Xiaoxiao left the raincoat and bamboo hat at the door and walked in before sitting down opposite Madam Wei.
She was not used to sitting cross-legged on the futon.
Madam Wei did not look at her and continued to trim the flowers.
Su Xiaoxiao was not the kind of person who would feel embarrassed if one ignored her. She was always at ease.
There was also a pair of scissors on the table for Ping’er.
Little Fatty Su picked it up as if no one was around, chose a peony, and cut it.
Madam Wei’s eyebrows twitched.
Su Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows and took another peony. She also cut it.
Madam Wei’s eyelashes trembled slightly, and she gradually couldn’t hold it in anymore.
Just as Su Xiaoxiao picked up the third flower, Madam Wei finally said, “Why are you here?”
Su Xiaoxiao looked at the orchid in her hand and said indifferently, “Madam
Wei, why do you think I’m here?”
Madam Wei looked at the branches that Su Xiaoxiao had cut randomly and endured it. She said, “No matter what you’re here for, give up.”
Su Xiaoxiao said, “Madam Wei, I actually don’t understand. You have pity for a maidservant, so why are you so cruel to your own son?”
Madam Wei paused and her gaze landed on Su Xiaoxiao’s face. She frowned and said, “The person hiding behind the curtain in the casino the night before… was you?”
“It was me.”
Su Xiaoxiao admitted generously.
Madam Wei said nothing.
Su Xiaoxiao said, “Wei Ting didn’t ask me to follow you. No matter how suspicious Madam Wei is, Wei Ting has never suspected you. I’m different.”
Madam Wei said, “So you didn’t come to the residence today to take my pulse, but to test me?
Su Xiaoxiao said, “That’s right.”
Madam Wei continued, “Are you happy with the results of your test?”
Su Xiaoxiao shrugged. “A little. You’re Wei Ting’s biological mother, and Wei Ting is your biological son. That’s a lot.”
A trace of mockery flashed across Madam Wei’s eyes. “Is this worth testing?”
Su Xiaoxiao put down the orchid and chose another rose. “Madam Wei, to be honest, my original intention was to confirm if you were the mole of the Wei family.”
Madam Wei paused.
Su Xiaoxiao said, “But later on, I thought about it. Whether you’re Wei Ting’s biological mother or not, it’s unlikely that you’re a mole. If you’re a mole, in order not to be discovered, you have to at least pretend to care about the children and act like a biological mother. As for reducing contact to avoid accidentally exposing yourself, that’s easy. There are many ways to alienate them and not let them misunderstand. For example, if you’re sick, you can’t pass the illness to them. Isn’t that reasonable and not suspicious?”
“If you’re a mole, your actions are like telling everyone: Come and suspect me!
Isn’t that ridiculous?”
Madam Wei said, “Perhaps I’m doing the opposite to make you think that it’s impossible for me to do this.”
Su Xiaoxiao nodded. “That makes sense. However, the secret letter that Old General Wei ordered someone to bring back before he died has always been with Wei Ting. You never saw Wei Ting after the incident with the Wei family’s man. How did you get the secret letter from him?”
Madam Wei said calmly, “Have you forgotten that we paid our respects to Old
General Wei and Wei Ting’s father and brothers together?”
Su Xiaoxiao asked, “Oh, where’s the secret letter?”
Madam Wei said expressionlessly, “Why should I tell you?”
Su Xiaoxiao rested her chin on one hand and looked at her with a faint smile. “Madam Wei, there’s no secret letter at all. I was talking nonsense.”
Madam Wei’s pupils dilated.
Su Xiaoxiao said seriously, “You’re not a mole.”
Madam Wei held the scissors tightly and cut a branch.
“The flowers are planted well,” Su Xiaoxiao said as she looked at the vase in front of her.
At this moment, Ping’er walked over with the brewed tea.
Su Xiaoxiao said to Ping’er, “Take the vase and go outside to tell Wei Ting that your Madam accepted his gift. Your Madam gave this to him.” Ping’er looked at Su Xiaoxiao in a daze and then at Madam Wei.
Su Xiaoxiao pulled out the dagger at her waist.
“It’s useless even if you threaten me,” Madam Wei said calmly.
“Who said I was going to threaten you?”
Su Xiaoxiao spun the dagger and pulled it out. With a slash of the blade, a series of sparks appeared on the metal scabbard. “Your peach forest is not bad.
If I burn it, I don’t know if your heart will ache.” “By the way, I’ve already plucked the largest peaches in advance.”
Madam Wei looked at Su Xiaoxiao coldly.
Su Xiaoxiao’s bully aura was fully released. “Oil. No matter how heavy the rain is, it will burn!”
Madam Wei said calmly, “Aren’t you afraid that I’ll kill you?”
