C16 (1/2)

Wen Jiu heard the servants in the residence discussing for a while.

Before Second Madame Xie gave birth to Xie Qi, he had had a child. When he was about to give birth, he was forced to give birth by a concubine. They wanted to execute the servant, but the servant was pregnant, her life was saved just like that, and she gave birth to Third Young Master's Xie Xuan.

As a mother, she was naturally brooding over what had happened, and was unable to let it go even after half a lifetime had passed.

Xie Qi said seriously: ”Blood is thicker than water, although they are not born from the same mother, but they are blood relatives from the same father.”

Second Madame Xie was angered speechless by Yu Liang's kind son, and the entire courtyard became silent for a moment.

”Is tonight's night scene very good? ”One by one, they all ran over to my aunt's place to join in on the fun.”

The youth's lazy voice came from outside the courtyard.

Following that, the courtyard door opened and seven or eight attendant s came in with lanterns in their hands. In an instant, the entire courtyard that was shrouded in darkness was illuminated.

Xie Heng seemed to have rushed back overnight, as a lot of rain fell from his shoulders. The corner of his mouth hooked up slightly, and he walked over with large strides.

”I've read a book recently, and there's something in it that I don't quite understand. I wonder if aunty can help me answer this question?”

The Second Madame Xie was angry, but the young man did not care about her attitude, and smiled gently: ”The book says: Brother and brother is courteous to the clan and to the nation, and that the An people would rather live for ten thousand years. Does auntie know what that means? ”

The Second Madame Xie didn't continue speaking, but she clearly understood that Xie Heng was clearly joking around to plead on behalf of Xie Xuan. Furthermore, the words he had said were not at this time, but rather, told her to not hold back on what happened before.

The few of them were silent for a moment.

Although Xie Heng was carefree and unhurried all day, not a single person in the Palace was dissatisfied with him. This Xie Family would sooner or later be handed to Xie Heng, and as parents, they wouldn't be able to accompany their son for a lifetime.

After a long while, the Second Madame Xie waved his hand, ”It's already late in the night. Go back.”

”Mother …”

Xie Qi still wanted to speak, but she tugged on his sleeve and softly said, ”Thank you, mother.”

Xie Xuan still did not make a sound, Xie Heng reached out and pulled him up from the ground, then smiled: ”Aunt is much more transparent than the rest of us.”

Perhaps, at this moment, only this fellow could still joke around with a straight face.

Ever since Wen Jiu had showered that night in the middle of the night, he felt a little uncomfortable and laid on the bed for a few days.

On the other hand, Xie Qi was fine, but the attendant in the courtyard did not allow her to get close to Wen Jiu either.

After making such a ruckus, Wen Wen also wasn't suitable to stay in the Xie's Mansion anymore, so he returned to the Academy.

When Eldest Young Master returned, he sent people to take Linglan back to the Ling Family and even sent someone to repair the Qiu Feng Courtyard. The servant girl beside Wen Jiu chattered about what had happened in the Heaven Palace and urged her to drink the medicine.

After staring at the bowl of black soup for a long time, Wen Jiu closed her eyes and felt bored. The bitter taste spread to her tongue, and she quickly got up to pour some water to drink.
