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?”
