The Concubine's Survival Manual

Chapter 86

"Wu Niangzi smiled and said, 'Yeah, Yang Qi, why do you have such a leisurely heart?' Master Biao laughed at Wu Niangzi, 'Well, I don't want to learn, but I just learned the roughness of our men, and everyone who calls me is by name. surname.'"

"Ninth brother just laughed and didn't say anything. Young Master Biao seemed a little angry and said, 'Don't talk to me? Oh, by the way, you're not afraid of heights, fire, or water...you're always afraid of knives, right?' , While talking, he played with the shining dagger and approached Brother Jiu."

Shuxia stood still in front of Huanshawu, squinting her eyes comfortably at the sun, "Young Master Biao is getting closer and closer, Brother Jiu has a look of panic on his face, Young Master Biao looked at it and laughed even more. Facing me and Fifth Lady, we could only hear his laughter. Alas, Seventh Lady, I have lived in the deep house compound for a long time, and I seldom heard such cheerful laughter. I immediately thought of those times in my hometown village. "

Seventh Lady slowly bit her lower lip.

It's not that she doesn't understand what Shu Xia means.

"Master Biao was spinning the dagger in his hand like a wheel while talking, and for a while, he put the dagger in front of Brother Jiu. I couldn't see what he was doing across a stream. Brother slowly wiped the edge of the blade with his fingers, with the intention of scaring Brother Ninth."

"But Ninth Brother was very angry, pushed Young Master Biao's shoulder, and was about to walk away, but Young Biao laughed, and blocked Ninth Brother sideways, saying, 'You can't go out if you don't admit defeat——Yang Qi, I What did you say, one day, I want you to throw in the to--'"

Shuxia pursed her lips and smiled again, "Master Biao's words were very interesting to me. He was contemplating, but he yelled again. The pain in his voice was very strong. When he flicked his right hand, blood flew out. Wu Niangzi and I were startled, Wu Niangzi rushed forward, but Master Biao shouted, "Don't come here! Be careful not to hurt you!" On the other hand, he softly comforted, "Give me the knife— —You seriously hurt yourself!'”

"Fifth Lady and I were afraid of accidents, so we walked over quickly, but we didn't dare to approach, afraid of being accidentally injured by the blade in a fight, we only saw Master Biao and Brother Jiu wrestling, and Master Biao was bleeding a lot from his hands, tick tick Answered, spilled all over the floor, wrestling, Young Biao shouted, 'Are you crazy? Yang Qi? What's wrong with you, are you crazy? Hurt me? You're not afraid of your mother...'"

"Later, I don't know what happened, Brother Nine let out a muffled snort, followed by two crisp sounds, the knife and a pair of small silver scissors fell to the ground, Young Master Biao stood still, gasping for breath, bent again He lowered his waist to check Brother Nine's condition. Fifth Lady burst into tears in fright, and asked while crying, "What's going on, why did Seventh Sister go crazy suddenly? Are you all okay?"

Rao Qi Niangzi also conjectured several possibilities about the scene in front of Huanshawu at that time, but the facts still left her dumbfounded and speechless for a long time.

Shuxia smiled at Qin Niangzi's surprise, and there was a bit of meaning in the smile, "Master Biao took a breath and said, 'It's nothing, it's not a big deal, it didn't hurt anywhere', but there was a little bit of blood The ground dripped from between his fingers, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like it's all right."

Qin Niangzi also gasped lightly, and couldn't help asking, "Is there really nothing serious?"

A sly smile appeared on Shu Xia's face, "I didn't see that... Anyway, Master Biao did not mention the injury on his hand later, did he?"

"Fifth Lady went to check on Ninth Brother again, and exclaimed, 'Seventh Sister, your face! Your face!'"

Shuxia's tone gradually became serious.

"For a while, none of us spoke. Ninth Brother touched his cheek and felt the blood on his hand. He passed out as soon as he rolled his eyes. Master Biao took a few breaths, raised his head and said bitterly, 'This damn girl Suddenly going crazy!' I hurried forward to check Brother Jiu's breathing, but it was okay, I just fainted from fright. Immediately I was anxious to ask Zhang Luo to carry Brother Jiu into Huanshawu. Wu Niangzi cried , while asking Young Master Biao, "Why did Seventh Lady suddenly go crazy?" Her hands were covered with blood, and she looked a little scary."

"Master Biao heard this, but he lowered his head, picked up the little pair of scissors, and threw them into the Wanhua Creek. He stared at Wu Niangzi and said to me, 'Remember, it was when I used the knife to tease my seventh cousin. I scratched her, and hurt myself!'" Shu Xia smiled at Qin Niangzi again, "I didn't know why Young Master Biao said that at the time, but I didn't dare not listen to him. Later, I thought I understand...Young Master Biao is very valuable, if I tell the truth about what happened, I am afraid that the one who will be punished will be 'Seventh Lady' instead. Seventh Lady, do you think I am right?"

Seventh Lady opened her mouth, but didn't know what to say.

Although Xu Fengjia's remarks back then were euphemistic, they were actually tantamount to admitting that he was the culprit who took the initiative to provoke trouble and turned the joke into a bloody case.

But if this is the truth, it's really hard to say right or wrong.

Of course Xu Fengjia shouldn't have brandished a knife to scare Ninth Brother, but Ninth Brother... How can Nine Brother's actions be blameless?
Especially for Xu Fengjia at that time, the person who stabbed him was the concubine Seventh Lady...There was such a conflict between the concubine and the concubine...

No wonder he was so surprised when he knew that the injured was not himself, but Brother Nine!

As Brother Nine, he doesn't have to take all the blame... How could the eldest wife be willing to punish Brother Nine?Even if the eldest wife is willing, the elder will not!

Qin Niangzi shook her head lightly, giving up guessing Xu Fengjia's intentions for taking the blame.

It has been several years, maybe people have forgotten this matter long ago.

However, since Shuxia was willing to tell the story of the past frankly, it gave her plan a little more chance of winning.

...It's just Ninth Brother...

I really don't know what this kid is thinking!
Entering the Qinghong Pavilion, looking for the old clothes of the third aunt and putting them on, can I say that I belong to my daughter?
However, there should be someone helping Brother Nine behind this matter... Otherwise, how could he comb his daughter's bun?

It's a pity that the people around Brother Nine have changed several times, and this kid still refuses to explain the truth of this matter...

Forget it, the more mysteries there are, the easier it is to manipulate.Sometimes, what's the use of knowing the truth?Isn't it necessary to cover up the most simple and clear logical relationship with one layer after another of illusions?

You bullied my sister, and I will take revenge on you.

Ninth Brother's motive is nothing more than this sentence, even if he didn't say it clearly, how could Seventh Lady not know?How could the eldest lady fail to guess?

No matter right or wrong, it has nothing to do with right and wrong, it's just a child's most simple defense.

And it is precisely this sentence that can never be revealed.

After raising a child for ten years, what he thinks about is not Yang En, but his twin sister.

For the little grievance of the twin sister, he did not hesitate to plot against his cousin...

With such a child, how can the eldest wife rest assured that he will not be ordered to do it once he gains power?With such an idea at such a young age, who knows what kind of shady plan is hidden in his heart...

Those past events between the eldest wife and Jiu Yiniang are gone without a trace now, what about the day when Brother Jiu takes power?Will it be turned over and recalculated...

With the eldest wife's suspicion, how could she not create a gap and start to suspect and guard against her adopted son?

I'm afraid it's also heartache because I have never seen through Brother Jiu.

After all, Qin Niangzi still didn't handle it well, making Brother Jiu think he was a doormat...

She let out a long breath and buried her helplessness deeply in her heart.

She smiled and cared about Shu Xia, "I've been standing for a while, why don't you go into the room and rest, I'll go first?"

Shuxia also smiled and thanked Seventh Lady, "Seventh Lady often comes to sit and sit... We three sisters are all thinking of you."

Seventh Lady sold two favors to the three sisters.

Seventh Lady reciprocated, "Twelfth Auntie must also take care of her health, and add more younger brothers and sisters to our Yang family."

Shuxia caressed her stomach and sighed, "I don't know if I can keep it... These days, my waist and abdomen are hurting..." Thinking of the identity of Seventh Lady, she hurriedly stopped talking, "Thank you Seventh Lady for your good words Already!"

The two parted in front of Huanshawu, and Qiniangzi turned around and crossed the small bamboo bridge, returning to the path in front of Qinghong Pavilion.

Seeing Shuxia entering Huanshawu from a distance, she called softly, "Come out!"

Li Xia popped his head from the corner.

Taking his time, he walked out of Xiao Taolin while wearing his trouser belt.

Seventh Lady couldn't help but smile, "Thank you for thinking it out."

Although there are single clean rooms in Baifang Garden, they are far away from Qinghong Pavilion.

When I came here, I suddenly became anxious and went into the corner for convenience. Although it was indecent, it was not a big deal.

Fortunately, Li Xia was able to use this excuse to cover up.

Lixia also smiled back at Seventh Lady.

Compared with her pretending to be calm when she was sending Qionghua, at this time she can be said to be as if nothing had happened.

"How is it?" Seventh Lady asked.

Li Xia smiled without saying a word, and nodded slightly.

The two of them didn't talk any more, but walked around on the bluestone path to Xiaoxiangxue.
