The cannon fodder stepmother dressed as the villain Zai Zai

"But why does Mrs. Xu seem indifferent?"

"No, she's probably pretending to be calm."

"Otherwise, seeing that Mrs. Shen is even more pampered, how could Mrs. Xu watch with such cold eyes? This is totally against common sense."

"But you can't think so. After all, Mrs. Xu is not an ordinary person. I really want to see what Mrs. Xu will do next."

Lu Jingming was thinking about it.

Sheng Yue's voice lit up in his ears and asked:

"General Lu, General Lu?"

Only then did Lu Jingming notice that he had lost his composure, and he quickly agreed, smiled, and replied: "Ah, Second Master, let's go then."

"Ah good."

Sheng Yue saw Lu Jingming slightly stunned, but he didn't have time to ask him what he was thinking.

But seeing Lu Jing's obviously abnormal state, Sheng Yue had some doubts in his heart.

But after all, I kept it in my heart and had no outlet.

He followed Lu Jingming out of the room and went to take off his eldest brother's armor.

In the room, Sheng Lixuan helped Mrs. Shen drink medicine.

Then he came over to the young master to see how little Shengze was doing.

At present, Xu Yaqin has finished feeding the young master the medicine.

The little guy is also lying down.

I had just experienced a drowning accident, and now I was frightened.

Xu Yaqin was slowly telling him stories and coaxing the little guy to sleep.

Of course, bedtime stories are different from the four classics we usually read.

After all, listening to that stuff will only make people more energetic.

If you want to help you sleep, fairy tales are of course better.

Although Xu Yaqin has never raised a cub, she can figure this out with common sense.

When Sheng Lixuan came over, the little guy had just fallen asleep.

He was about to speak out, but in the middle of his words, he asked:

"How's it going, little guy..."

Hearing Sheng Lixuan speak, Xu Yaqin quickly turned her head and gave him a shushing gesture.

Then he deliberately lowered his voice and said slowly:

"Master Hou, please lower your voice. This little guy fell asleep just now. Don't wake him up again later."

"Oh, that's how it is."

Sheng Lixuan deliberately lowered his volume and asked Xu Yaqin in a very small voice:

"I mean, how is this little guy doing?"

Xu Yaqin pursed her lips and replied:

"Don't worry, Mr. Hou, I gave him medicine just now."

"The young master's mood is still very stable right now, and there should be nothing serious."

"That's good. This little guy probably still has some shadows in his heart."

I have to trouble Mrs. Xu a lot now. "

"I can't stay with this little guy all the time. After all, the affairs in the Qingdu Marquis' mansion are complicated."

Xu Yaqin nodded.

She understood very well that as the Marquis of the Qingdu Marquis Mansion.

How heavy is the burden on Sheng Lixuan.

It is impossible to take care of these trivial matters one by one.

She said quite sensibly:

"Don't worry, Lord Marquis. I, Lord Marquis, can feel at ease here, but..."

"Just what?"

Sheng Lixuan frowned, and when he saw Xu Yaqin hesitated to speak, he felt a little surprised and couldn't help but ask more questions.

Xu Yaqin paused and continued:

"It's just that the Marquis wants to put Mrs. Shen here to recover from her injuries?"

Even if Xu Yaqin didn't hear the conversation between Shen Rulan and Qingdu Hou.

But she could guess from the current posture that this should be the case. Sheng Lixuan's expression became even more confused, and he asked:

"Uh, Mrs. Xu, I don't understand. Is there anything wrong with this?"

In the past, Sheng Lixuan only had Gu Qingqiu as his wife.

Taking concubines was something that had never happened before.

Since Gu Qingqiu's death, he has deliberately kept a distance from these women of the opposite sex.

Therefore, although he is a strange man with both civil and military skills in the Daxuan Dynasty.

But he is also a straight man.

He had only a partial understanding of what was going on in the girl's heart.

"No, there's nothing wrong with that."

Xu Yaqin looked at Shen Rulan lying there with suspicion.

Sure enough, Shen Rulan did not fall asleep, but also looked at the situation here with her eyes.

The moment when two people's eyes meet.

Like a frightened little rabbit, Shen Rulan quickly looked away and began to close her eyes again.

Wonderful, really wonderful!

Xu Yaqin couldn't help but praise in her heart.

This Mrs. Shen was really born in the wrong era.

If it were placed in modern times, she would definitely be an Oscar-winning actress, and she would not be seen in any movie theater!

Xu Yaqin came back to her senses and answered Sheng Lixuan's doubts.

She said seriously:

"Master Marquis, I think it's better to put the young master in Cuilan Xuan. This will make it easier for me to take care of him."

Sheng Lixuan shook his head, feeling that there was no need for this unnecessary step.

He said:

"Mrs. Xu, wouldn't you feel more at ease here? And this place is no different from your Cui Lan Xuan."

"The little cub is frightened now and has just fallen asleep. I think it doesn't have to be like this."

Xu Yaqin did not answer Sheng Lixuan's question. Instead, she changed the topic and asked in a flat tone:

"Master Hou, are you afraid that something unexpected will happen to little Shengze when I stay here?"

"Do not."

When Sheng Lixuan saw Xu Yaqin thinking like this, he became obviously panicked. He quickly explained:

"How Mrs. Xu treats the young master, I see it in my eyes."

"Now that I have handed him over to Madam Xu, of course you can rest assured. This time was purely an accident, so Madam Xu does not need to blame herself too much."

Xu Yaqin felt that Sheng Lixuan's statement made sense.

The only flaw is:

This incident was definitely not an accident, but someone's deliberate plan.

How could Xu Yaqin rest assured and let this little guy recuperate with this snake-hearted woman?

Maybe this woman will come up with some tricks.

Since she can't afford to offend her for the time being, Xu Yaqin can afford to hide, right?

She paused and continued to say to Sheng Lixuan:

"Master Marquis, in that case, since I am solely responsible for the young master's affairs, I think it would be better to go to Cuilanxuan to rest."

"There are many people here, and it will be inconvenient for the young master and Mrs. Shen to be together. What do you think, Lord Marquis?"

"this?"

Sheng Lixuan was silent for a moment. He glanced at Xu Yaqin, and then slowly looked at Shen Rulan lying on the other side.

Even someone as dull as Sheng Lixuan could see some meaning at this time, and he smiled calmly.

"Okay, if that's the case, then I'll follow your wishes, Mrs. Xu."

"Thank you, Lord Marquis."

Seeing Sheng Lixuan finally let go

Xu Yaqin didn't want to be in the same room with Shen Rulan, a woman with evil thoughts.

She immediately called her personal maid Xuanhe, glanced at Mrs. Zhu next to her, and said to them:

"Let's go back to Cuilanxuan now."

After saying this.

Xu Yaqin carefully held little Shengze in her arms.

Despite his young age, this little guy still has some weight in his hand.
