Fractious Legitimate Daughter - C120
In her past life, Yue Xin had frequently tried to persuade and comfort him, but she had never heard of it. Now that she had used Yue Xin’s blood, wouldn’t she feel heartache?
Xie Wanqing stayed up until late at night to rest. She did not sleep for the entire night, but when she thought about how the mother and daughter pair were so daring that they even dared to plot against the Old Mistress, she became so angry that she stomped her feet. The next morning, she went to pay her respects to the madame.
When he arrived at the old mistress’ room, he saw that Xie Wanyun was also there. At this time, he was feeding the old mistress medicine and welcomed Xie Wanqing when she arrived.
“Sister is here. Grandmother was talking about you last night!” As she spoke, she pulled Xie Wanqing to the bedside of the old lady. The old lady looked the same as ever, but her expression was a little ugly, because the poison was slow as well.
Just like in his previous life, it would slowly seep into the blood and liver of the poisoned people, and in the end, his entire body would be hollowed out and he would be lying on the bed dying, waiting for his death.
“Xianqing greets Grandmother!” Looking at the old lady’s face, he did not want to see Xie Wanqing. He even turned his head slightly to the other side.
“You’ve finally come. I’ve always kept you by my side, but I didn’t see your shadow last night. I only have you at my side!” The madame said coldly.
This was expected, the old mistress had just started liking Xie Wanqing, and treated him better than she did, but Xie Wanyun was the one who took care of her last night, so it was normal for the old mistress to be unhappy.
However, Xie Wanqing knew that she had to stay calm and not lose control of herself at this time.
“Yanqing was too young, and so she didn’t come because she wanted her sister to take care of her. She was afraid that Grandmother would bother her!” How could Xie Wanqing not understand the meaning behind the madame’s words? However, she could not say anything at this point of time.
For the sake of the madame, she had to send someone to investigate if she found out about it. If she put in a strong dose of medicine and the madame died for no apparent reason, it was hard to say.
As for herself, where would she be in a good situation? Madame Ye was not a coward, at that time, wouldn’t the mother and daughter pair could do whatever they wanted?
When Xie Wanqing thought about this, she trembled, what’s more, Xie Wanyun was watching him from behind.
“Then let Ye Yun take care of me. You don’t need to come to my sickly days!” The madame’s voice grew harsher; she was obviously angry.
“Then I won’t disturb Grandmother anymore!” With that, he left just in time to let them take care of him. Thinking that with the results, he should no longer treat the old lady with medicine, which would give Xie Wanqing time to copy the Blood Scripture.
In the past few days, Xie Wanqing was always in her own room, and her conversation outside became more frequent, it was said that she was initially in the Daughter of Concubine, and was the most attentive of them all, but the old lady was sick, and not even a shadow of her body could be seen.
Xie Wanqing did not explain anything and only locked herself in her room to study and copy one or two books every day.
It was only four to five days, but he heard that the old lady’s illness had already completely healed, and as for Xie Wanqing, he had long been settled by the kitchen’s Liu Li.
That day, after leaving the academy, Xie Wanqing went to the old lady’s room, bringing along a servant of the kitchen manager.
Walking into the old mistress’ room, he saw that Xie Wanyun and Concubine Fang were laughing with the old mistress, but the atmosphere had turned cold for a moment.
Xie Wanqing did not say a word, and only obediently gave her regards. It was just that the old lady did not seem like she was willing to see Xie Wanqing.
The old mistress must have felt that Xie Wanqing would only be by her side when she was in good health.
During this period of time, the person taking care of her secretly said a lot of bad things about Xie Wanqing. It was really expected that the Old Mistress was not willing to see it.
“Evening, how come you’re here? I didn’t see you here when I was sick, don’t be worried that an old woman like me might be sick and give it to you?”
When Xie Wanqing heard this, she felt that it was extremely familiar, it was what the Concubine Fang had said to stop Xie Wanqing from entering the Old Granny’s room.
These words must have been said because Xie Wanqing did not deny it and allowed the old lady to hear it. They did not use such methods to cause a misunderstanding.
In her previous life, Xie Wanqing was misunderstood by others and even looked down upon by the elders of her family.
“Grandmother, please don’t blame her.” Grandmother, please don’t blame her. “Grandmother, please don’t blame her.
On the surface, Xie Wanyun was trying to say good words for her, but did she really think that Xie Wanqing would not be able to understand her words?
It was an unfilial name that he was unwilling to take care of. If it were to reach Xie Kai’s ears, he would only think that Xie Wanyun was sensible and that Xie Wanqing would never have the same fate with the Direct Daughter again.
“Grandmother will definitely recover quickly from her illness, and she won’t be infected by it. Grandmother and Grandmother both have Buddha’s blessing, so the reason why Grandmother didn’t come to see me again is because she has more important things to do!”
Xie Wanqing knelt on the ground and lowered her head, she wanted to make the old lady less angry, but instead, she laughed out loud, “Alright, I want to hear what you have done these past few days!”
“Zhiqing, it’s fine if you don’t come to visit grandma. Grandmother originally didn’t want to blame you, but you can’t push her aside. Quickly admit your wrongs to grandma!” Concubine Fang frowned on the side and looked just like a mother teaching her daughter.
Xie Wanqing laughed lightly, they had not always done things that were laughable. At that time, when she was young, she thought that if she admitted her mistakes, she could avoid punishment, and this punishment was indeed evaded, but slowly, there was an endless misunderstanding with her family.
Even Xie Wanyun had a look of contempt on her face, but the old lady was unable to see through his contempt.
“Does Concubine Fang not want to hear what happened in the middle of the night?” Xie Wanqing lowered her head, too lazy to even look at Concubine Fang.
“Let her say that if you can’t say anything, don’t get up today!” From the old lady’s point of view, Xie Wanqing was obviously looking for an excuse to be lazy. It was fine if she did not say it in the beginning, but at most, she would not get close to her in the future.
“Yanqing, quickly admit your mistake!” Concubine Fang looked to be in a hurry, she did not know what was happening, and thought that she was really worried for Xie Wanqing, but Xie Wanqing did not bother to pay attention to her.
Grandmother, I heard that Grandmother was sick when I came back in the morning. I heard that Grandmother was sick when I came back in the afternoon, and I thought that Grandmother had been enjoying the meat for a long time since she ate it. Maybe her body couldn’t handle it, so she went to see Grandmother’s food!
Xie Wanqing said calmly, and then saw that when she talked about food, the faces of the two people beside him instantly turned pale.
“Oh? And then? What did you find? ” The madame was intrigued and felt that something had been discovered since she had mentioned it.
As the madame sat on her sickbed, she often thought about how she had been sleeping all day and how she had gotten sick with the blessing of the Buddha in the buddhist hall.
“Wenqing went to check on Grandmother’s food, but on the surface, there doesn’t seem to be anything wrong with it. However, after checking with the silver needles, she realized that the needles are black!”
Xie Wanqing lowered her head and spoke, while looking at the two whose faces were deathly pale. She then looked at each other, as if she was blaming the other party for not doing well.
However, the most important thing right now was to protect herself. Looking at the Concubine Fang’s expression, Xie Wanqing knew that she must be thinking about how to protect herself.
As for the old mistress’ face, it was filled with shock but it quickly turned into anger. Someone’s hand had already reached for her food. How could the old mistress not investigate it thoroughly?
