C14 (2/2)

”At that time, Young Master sent her to the Manor.”

”It will be hard for him.” Lady Xu almost popped out her third eye, ”Since it's like this, I can't allow her to destroy my good days.”

As if having made some sort of decision, Lady Xu spoke with abnormally firm words. Xie Jingyi's heart thumped as she raised her head to look at Lady Xu, ”Mother, you won't … ”Didn't Father already reject her that day? What are you doing to provoke his misfortune? Moreover, Third Girl is someone who can handle such a thing. Who knows, maybe Father will have other plans for her?”

”I don't care about that much anymore!” Lady Xu slapped the table and stood up, ”Look at Second Miss, she needs to do something the moment she looks away, any little scum would be able to bite her tongue and climb up, we have troubled to support her and she will definitely not forgive us. Can't you see that Young Master is already tired of her, she doesn't even have any support in Marquis Mansion, in a few years, that Second Young Madam will be beaten into the cold palace, by then, it will really be too late!”

When he said these words, a thought flashed across Xie Jingyi's eyes. She kept having the feeling that the way the young master looked at the three girls was a little different, and the way the third girl looked seemed to be especially far away from the young master. If it was really like that, then Third Miss would definitely not have anything to do with Second Miss if she really married Young Master.

”Mother.” Xie Jingyi considered, ”I think maybe it's better to wait for a while longer, since the three little girls are still young, and there's no need to rush for the betrothal ceremony. I also heard from Marquis Mansion Grandmother that Imperial Physician Pei was present the other day, and said that there's a fire in the liver and a weak kidney, and that it's not appropriate for them to be pregnant. These words are out of place, don't you mean that there's no hope for the child to be born in Second Miss?

”In a few years, it will always be something without a trace. Forget it, I'll think over it carefully. If you have nothing better to do, go and take a look at Second Miss. She should at least be able to listen to a few words of yours.”

Xie Jingyi returned to the Lu Manor with a heavy heart. In this place, Xie Jingxi was resting for lunch and was still in a daze when she was awakened by the noise outside the yard. Xie Jingxi was suspicious, there were very few people visiting her house, what was going on today.

”Ming Yu, what are you arguing about outside?”

Xie Jingxi asked, but had already gone down to the courtyard to take a look, it was actually the Nan and the Sixth Miss whom she had not seen for a long time. When Sixth Miss saw Xie Jingxi coming out, he ran over to complain, ”Big sister Third Sister, Nan already ruined the crabapple blossoms, and even said that he wanted to cut down the trees. It took me so much effort to stop him, please take a look.”

Xie Jingxi frowned, she followed over to take a look, only to see that the fully grown, leaf-bearing Begonia had already been grabbed miserably, but fortunately, the Nan was not big and there was still a chance for it to suffer. Ming Yu was currently holding onto Nan tightly, preventing him from fighting. Nan bared her fangs and brandished her claws, and started crying and making a ruckus, ”Demon Tree Tree, I want to cut it down, cut it down …”

Nan had raised his for a few months, andhiss body was fine now, but he still did not recognize anyone, and her words were vague and unintelligible. Other than the servants in front of his, and the Aunt Zhao herself, most people could not understand what he had said, but the words that came out of her mouth were extremely clear, and Xie Jingxi knew that someone must have taught him.

”Nan, do you still remember who I am?” Xie Jingxi squatted in front of the Nan, preventing the Nan from injuring him, and hugged him tightly.

She shook her head and smiled as she stood up. With Madame Zhao as her mother, this child would probably not have anything to worry about, and felt that it was a great pity as well. ”Forget it, let him go back, what is there to talk about with a child?”

Just as Xie Jingxi was about to pull Sixth Miss back to the house, the Nan relaxed her vigilance and turned to bite her wrist. In pain, Ming Yu let go of her hand, but Nan managed to struggle free and charged towards Xie Jingxi.

”Miss, be careful!”

Seemingly at the same time, Nan already knocked into Xie Jingxi, which caught him off guard, and caused him to subconsciously try to protect. With a twist of his legs, he directly fell to the ground, and Xie Jingxi could only hear a muffled sound, which was probably the sound of bones twisting.

When Xie Jingxi fell, his ankle just happened to be at an unlucky angle, as it was directly pressed under her body. Her hand was also cut by the stone, but Nan did not let him go, and before Ming Yu could catch him once again, he kicked her.

Xie Jingxi was in so much pain that she broke out in cold sweat, but she endured the pain and helped Sixth Miss up first.

When Xie Jingxi saw that something was going to happen, she hurried over, ”Ming Yu, quickly stop the two of them!”

But how could one person be able to catch two big kids while looking after Xie Jingxi's injuries?
