Daughter's Poisoned Wife

Chapter 323
Xiao Xi was even angrier now, it turned out that his father-in-law had suddenly contracted a serious illness a few days ago, not to mention visiting the house to pay his birthday, he couldn't even get out of bed.The imperial physician has been invited several times, but there has been no improvement. Because of this matter, Xiao Xi is almost annoyed to death.But Xiao Ze wanted to pick which pot he didn't open, which really drove Xiao Xi crazy.

"You... hello!" Xiao Xi gritted his teeth and said three words, and immediately turned around and walked away. No matter how angry he was, he did not lose his mind, knowing that he must not take the risk of beating up his younger brother on his father's birthday. Therefore, no matter how Xiao Ze provokes him, Xiao Xi can only endure it forcefully.

Seeing that his son-in-law had a tough temper, Du Dahai couldn't help feeling a little worried. If he also had such a temper when facing his daughter, how could his son-in-law be able to bear it?Du Dahai didn't know that even if Xiao Ze was as mighty as a tiger in front of everyone, he was as soft and supple as a sheep in front of Du Heng.Probably only Du Heng lost his temper with Xiao Ze, and Xiao Ze would never lose the slightest bit of anger towards Du Heng again.

"Father-in-law, please go to the living room and talk to the adults. The banquet will start soon. My son-in-law has other things to do, so I won't accompany you." Xiao Ze said to Du Dahai calmly.

Du Dahai hurriedly said: "Okay, go get busy and leave me alone." Xiao Ze bowed slightly and left in a hurry.He suddenly wanted to see Du Heng very much, and wanted to have a few words with Du Heng.

"Button, go and see where your wife is. If it's convenient, please ask her to return to Taiyuan." Xiao Ze instructed Button.

Button hurriedly said: "Third Lord, Madam has to accompany the concubine for a whole day today. I heard that the number of female relatives is not small. I am afraid that Madam will not be free."

Xiao Ze frowned and scolded: "Stupid thing, you wouldn't ask Hong Ling quietly, today your wife's stepmother and her three children are here, I'm afraid your wife will suffer."

Button hurriedly replied: "Yes, Third Master, please calm down, the servant will go over here."

Button quickly went to Baopu Garden, asked the little maid to call Hongling out, and asked him carefully.After hearing this, Hong Ling smiled and said: "Go back and report to the third master, Madam is doing very well here, not only has she not been angered by anyone, she has also received a lot of compliments. Everyone praises our wife, and she is angry with her." His face turned green. By the way, how is the situation outside, can the third master see his wife's father?"

Button smiled and said: "I see, the third master is very polite to his in-laws, and the two of them talked alone for a while, and after the conversation, the third master sent me to ask about the situation on the wife's side. The third master is worried about that. The wives and the wives on both sides are rude to Madam."

Hong Ling laughed softly and said: "They still have to be brave. The first time they showed signs, they were suppressed by the concubine. The concubine really loves our wife. You should report to the third master, please don't worry about your wife."

Button nodded, and hurriedly said: "By the way, you are serving Madam closely, but you must pay attention to that little uncle, and don't let him come up with any bad ideas and hurt Madam."

Hong Ling said softly: "I know it in my heart, you think I'm stupid, I also came from that mansion, how can I not know that person's temperament, I must strictly guard against it, and dare not let him approach Madam's side Within five steps."

Button just nodded: "That's good, that's good, all right, I'll go in and serve, I have to talk to the third master. Oh, yes, I almost forgot about it, the third master asked to ask Can madam go away, if so, the third master asks madam to return to Taiyuan to talk."

Hong Ling shook her head without thinking about it, and said: "Madam can't get away, there are quite a few female family members today, the concubine is short-spirited, and those two don't work hard, and they all have to rely on our wife to deal with them .”

Button nodded and said: "Understood, I'm just asking in vain, let's forget about Madam not being free, I'll go and answer the third master." After speaking, Button hurried back to the front yard.

After hearing what Button said, Xiao Ze was somewhat disappointed, but then he thought it would be the same if he said it at night, maybe he could take this opportunity to see his wife for a while under the lamp.Thinking about it this way, Xiao Ze felt much more comfortable, so he got busy again.

Hong Ling returned to Du Heng's side, and quietly replied while Du Heng was changing clothes. Du Heng didn't say anything after hearing this, but Hong Ling could feel that his wife's mood was much better than before, and she seemed to be much more energetic.It seems that the good things between the wife and the third master are coming soon, Hong Ling thought optimistically.

Prince Ning's mansion was so lively that day, and all the guests started to watch the theater after the birthday banquet. At this time, Princess Ning's energy was much shorter, and she really didn't have the energy to accompany the guests to the theater, so she ordered Cheng and Sun The family accompanied all the female relatives and left Du Heng by his side to serve.Du Heng didn't like to go to theatres, and she was afraid of excitement, so she was happy to stay in peace with Prince Ning and Princess Ning.Cheng Shi and Sun Shi also felt that it was very honorable to accompany the guests to the theater, and it was rare for the four women in Prince Ning's Mansion to get along for a while.

Du Heng was talking with Prince Ning when he suddenly heard heavy footsteps outside, followed by the greetings from the maids outside the door: "Maidservants please Wangye..."

"The father is here? The mother and the concubine, the daughter-in-law avoided." Du Heng said with some surprise, and Princess Ning's white and tender face was slightly red, and she took Du Heng's hand and smiled: "The whole family is close relatives, there is no need to Talking about these vain etiquette, your father won't stay too long, you just stay here with your mother."

While speaking, Prince Ning came in, holding a large gold silk sandalwood box in his hand.

"My concubine, I heard that you are unwell, what's the matter?" Prince Ning asked nervously as soon as he entered the door.

Prince Ning shook her head with a smile and said: "It's just a little tired, it's really nothing, why did you alarm the prince?"

Prince Ning looked at Du Heng and asked, "Daughter-in-law Ze, is your mother in good health?"

Du Heng nodded and said: "Going back to my father, my mother is really just a little tired and has nothing else to do, just take a rest for a while."

Only then did Prince Ning feel relieved, and said with a smile: "My concubine, just now Xiaoer presented a black jade Maitreya Buddha. I thought you would like it, so I sent it here for you to enjoy." Prince Ning put the golden nanmu box on the table and opened the lid.

As soon as the lid was opened, Du Heng could smell a faint medicinal fragrance.Maybe it's a natural talent, or maybe it's heredity. In short, Du Heng has an extremely sensitive nose. She is particularly sensitive to any subtle smell that ordinary people can't smell.
