Chapter 449 - 449: Seeking Death
Xiao Baoxin had already changed his habit of subconsciously holding his stomach.
However, with her big belly, she felt a little stiff when she didn’t put her hand on it.
How did Xi San treat you?” “Are you still thinking about getting him a concubine?” she asked softly.”
Xiao Miaorong was stunned for a moment. The topic had changed too much. It was obvious that her sister didn’t want to go around Xiao Jing ‘ai anymore.
“It’s alright.”
Although he said that, his face turned red. Xi San was still very gentle. “About taking a concubine…Didn’t sister tell me not to think about it for three years?”
She was relieved that she had answered Xiao Baoxin’s question.
She was only afraid that Xiao Miaorong was young and unstable, and that she would regret what she had done in the future, causing the husband and wife to be estranged.
“You saw Second Mother. She had just married into the family and had already taken in a concubine for her husband. In the end, she caused a ruckus and her life became a joke.”There were some words that weren’t suitable for her to say. She was afraid that she would see the dark side of life too early and couldn’t take it.
Xiao Jing ‘ai was afraid that this would not end well for her. The more she looked for trouble, the faster she would die.
After all, no one would hesitate if it was a matter of life or death.
On the surface, Yang Shao had given Lan Ying the responsibility of managing the family, but it was not so simple on the inside.
It was all thanks to Lan Ying that Xiao Jing ‘ai could pretend to have no stomach. At this time, Yang Shao still let Lan Ying take charge of the family. This was undoubtedly Chang Lan Ying’s ambition and her imposing manner.
What should he do next?
It was easy to understand the underhanded methods in the backyard. A mountain could not accommodate two tigers, especially Lan Ying, who had suffered many losses under Xiao Jing ‘ai’s hands.
Yang Shao let Lan Ying take charge of the family, he probably did not hold back any good shit.
He probably had the intention to kill and let Lan Ying be the executioner. Even if something happened in the future, throwing Lan Ying out would be considered an explanation for the Xiao family.
This was all in Xiao Baoxin’s heart and he had never told anyone about it.
Xie Xian was busy, especially when it came to Yang Shao. This person was quite sensitive, and it was not appropriate to mention Yang Shao’s back residence in front of him, as if she was paying attention to it. There was no need to say anything about the others.
She had never thought of killing anyone, not even Xiao Jing ‘ai. She was afraid of dirtying her hands. It was not worth it for such a person.
However, she didn’t stop Yang Shao.
That was the fate of Yang Shao and Xiao Jing ‘ai, and they had to end it. Some were loving, some were determined, some were loving and killing each other, and some were simply not loving each other and killing each other.
It was all up to him.
It had nothing to do with her.
However, there were many things that she could not say to outsiders, especially Xiao Miaorong. She was still young, and at most, she hated Xiao Jing ‘ai and her actions. Really placed on the table, life and death of the dead, not the Xiao Miaorong bear the weight of the class.
Therefore, Xiao Baoxin could only tell Xiao Miaorong what he could hear. As for how much he could hear, it was up to her.
Everyone walked their own path and could not be replaced.
Xiao Jing ‘ai was the same.
Fortunately, Xiao Miaorong wasn’t as vain as Xiao Jing ‘ai. Her life was very simple and she had found the right person.
Xiao Baoxin had only met Xi Sanlang a few times, but Xie Xian had mentioned to her that this person was smooth and smooth in all aspects. He was born with a long sleeve and was the best at judging the situation.
With his personality, he wouldn’t mistreat Xiao Miaorong.
This was how the marriage between the two families worked. Other than being in love, the family backgrounds of both parties also played a key role. If Xiao Jing ‘ai didn’t do it and secretly made a fortune, secretly supporting Yang Shao, husband and wife united, which Yang family would dare to look down on her? Why didn’t he worship her?
However, Xiao Jing ‘ai was like this. He was blinded by greed and forced himself to the path of death.
Do you think someone who could change dynasties and emperors in his previous life would be soft-hearted?
Even a dog would jump over a wall in desperation, let alone a living person. If it wasn’t courting death, what was it?
However, Xiao Jing ‘ai couldn’t tell.
###
Madam Xie didn’t see the twists and turns in this. She only told Xiao Baoxin in the car to not get involved in the Yang family’s matters.
“Second Mother did it herself and your Second Uncle doesn’t care. If she dares to go to the Xie family to cause trouble and embarrass you, you can directly get someone to beat her up.”
“This scourge…”
“Your father and brother are fighting on the battlefield outside, risking their lives. She is doing her best to smear the reputation of the Xiao family in Jiankang City.”Madam Xie became angrier as she spoke. In the end, she spat, “Why didn’t she die for a good person?”
There was something wrong with her words. No matter how angry Madam Xie was, she had never cursed anyone.
Xiao Baoxin hurriedly asked what was going on.
In the end, Madam Xie wiped her tears as she spoke.”It’s your sister-in-law. She’s getting worse day by day. He even said that he would find a monk or Taoist priest, but he’s just trying his luck…”
“You don’t know, but last night, she suddenly held my hand and told me that she did something wrong in the past and asked me to bear with her. She also said that it would not be good in the future. Your brother married a second wife and made things difficult for his own children. Mother Jing and An were handed over to me to help raise.”Her heart ached when she heard that.
Every time Xiao Baoxin wanted to visit Madam Cai, Madam Xie would stop him, afraid that she would get sick because she was pregnant.
She had always known that Madam Cai’s illness would be good or bad if she returned to Jiankang City, but she did not know that it was so serious.
“Mother, didn’t you call for a doctor?”
If someone else said that Madam Xie could scold someone ten miles away, would she treat her daughter-in-law harshly? However, she didn’t care about her own daughter. She was upset and couldn’t care less.
“Why didn’t you invite them? We’ve already invited three or four of them.”
“If you ask me, it’s probably because I saw too many dead people along the way.”
“Mother, should we send a letter to Brother…”
“I did. Didn’t the rebel army attack us a while ago? We haven’t been able to contact them. We only received a reply from your brother a few days ago.”
Madam Xie hesitated.” Why does it look like you’re making funeral arrangements?””
However, she didn’t see a single person from the Cai family, which showed how deep their enmity was. It wasn’t that the Cai family didn’t know about the news of Madam Cai’s long illness, but no one came to visit.
Xiao Baoxin didn’t feel too good when he heard this. He couldn’t care less about Madam Xie’s obstruction and followed back to the Xiao residence.
“Mother, don’t stop me. Although we didn’t get along in the past, it’s just that our temperaments didn’t match. But didn’t they get along well later? I haven’t seen sister-in-law since she returned to the city. Now… If I don’t see her again, I’ll feel bad.”
Madam Xie glanced at Xiao Baoxin’s stomach. She really didn’t want to make her daughter sick.
However, he refused to say it out loud.
Originally, he was going to send Madam Xie back to the residence, but Xiao Baoxin directly followed him in. Lady Jing and An both stayed in the main house with Madam Xie, while Madam Cai stayed in the courtyard where she and Xiao Baoshan had originally lived.
It was already the beginning of September and the weather had cooled down.
The house was burning with charcoal, but when the curtain was lifted, a warm and thick smell of medicine wafted into the air..
