A few years ago, news came from Mrs. Xue's mother's family, saying that her mother was sick and bedridden. The second wife went back to take a look, gave some money and stopped asking.

When asked, she only said it was a minor problem.

But the mother's "little problem" is said to have taken three months to get better, and during this period, the second wife was busy helping Sun Suci deal with things in the shop.

Old Madam Xue told Xue Jinyi about this, "...... You say, is she called being courteous and courteous, either a traitor or a thief? ”

If it weren't for the fact that there was no problem with the medicine and candied fruit last time, Xue Jinyi would have to suspect Second Mrs. Xue again.

"Grandmother didn't entrust the second aunt with some irrelevant things to do and share her energy?" But she felt that it was better for the second wife to come to the old lady less, otherwise Sun Suci would definitely plan something with the second wife in secret, and it would be too much to guard.

"She's a person, she just has a mouth, she says sweet things sweetly, scolds bad things hatefully, and she doesn't have any great skills." Old Madam Xue waved her hand, "I don't dare to leave it to her if it doesn't matter." ”

If it weren't for the fact that the second child really liked it, and thought that the Xue family had countless subordinates waiting for him, it would be nothing if he married a beautiful waste...... But reality has taught her that she can't be too soft-hearted.

If she could go back to the past, even if Sun Suci was pregnant, died at the gate of the Weiguo Mansion, or the second child was persecuted to die or live, she would strongly refuse these marriages.

Xue Jinyi didn't say anything, got up, and sat down at the bottom of the old lady.

The old lady called the second lady in.

"Mother, my daughter-in-law has cooked medicine for you." The second wife's crisp voice sounded the moment the curtain was opened.

Old Madam Xue was expressionless.

The second lady walked in with the medicine bowl in her own hand, with a bright smile on her face, until she saw clearly that it was Xue Jinyi sitting under the old lady, her hand trembled slightly, and her face changed.

"Princess Chu is also back......" Her voice sounded a little out of tune, obviously she didn't expect to bump into Xue Jinyi here.

The subtle abnormality of the second wife was all seen by Xue Jinyi, she was pale and watched the second wife salute the old lady and herself.

Old Madam Xue didn't speak, and Xue Jinyi said, "Second aunt, this is a family, so there is no need to be polite." ”

The second lady maintained a smile on her face and sent the medicine bowl to the old lady, "Mother, this medicine has been boiled and left for a while, and now it is just ready for consumption." Drink it quickly, don't delay the effect of the medicine. ”

"I've said it so many times, I don't like to drink this." The old lady was impatient.

The second wife patiently persuaded: "Mother, you are now in charge of the inner house, how many things do you have to do, how can you do it if you don't make up for your body?" ”

"Oh, you know there's a lot of work for me?" The old lady glanced meaningfully at the second lady.

The second wife said: "The daughter-in-law really hates herself for being incompetent, and she has no ability to help her mother share some of the burden, so she can only cook a pot of medicine and do her filial piety." Mother wouldn't even be willing to accept this love, right? ”

As she spoke, her eyes turned red and she looked very aggrieved.

Xue Jinyi asked with a smile: "I don't know this medicine, can I drink it?" ”

She came over with a curious expression, and the second wife hurriedly stepped forward to stop her.

"Princess Chu, this is a prescription tailored by the doctor invited by Grandpa Guo to see her mother, you are not suitable."

"It's a pity." Xue Jinyi returned to her position, "Gai Ming'er, I'll go see the doctor too." ”

The second lady laughed twice and pushed the candied fruit in front of the old lady, "Mother, please drink it." ”

Why is it particularly troublesome every time Xue Jinyi comes to persuade the old lady to drink medicine?

The second wife really wanted to know what Xue Jinyi said to the old lady, but unfortunately Yunjiayuan couldn't put people in, so there was no way to know.

"Okay, okay, I'll drink." The old lady was annoyed, picked up the medicine bowl, and drank it slowly.

The second lady's eyes were fixed on the old lady.

Xue Jinyi looked at all this, and her heart rose to her throat.

It's true that there is no problem with the medicine last time, but it doesn't mean that something won't be added every time.

Looking at the second wife's expression, she felt that there was something wrong this time, so she had to leave evidence to investigate.

Xue Jinyi's brain moved, and she took out her handkerchief and returned to the old lady's side, "Grandmother, although the second aunt is so anxious about your body, you have to drink slowly?" ”

She caressed the old lady's back, and the corner of her eye paid attention to the second lady's every move.

The second wife took the opportunity to pat herself on the back, "Princess Chu is really filial!" ”

Xue Jinyi also smiled, and suddenly pushed the old lady hard.

The old lady was caught off guard, and all the medicinal soup in her mouth spit out.

Xue Jinyi was just busy covering the old lady's mouth with a handkerchief, and soon she felt a wet piece on the handkerchief, the corners of her mouth hooked, and her face was full of concern and apology, "Grandmother, I'm sorry, it's Jinyi's clumsy hands." ”

"It's fine." The old lady put down the medicine bowl, and Xue Jinyi still wiped her mouth for herself.

Xue Jinyi deliberately blocked the second wife's sight, carefully hid the handkerchief in the palm of her hand, and then stuffed it into her arms.

Only the old lady saw her movements, and was a little stunned.

Xue Jinyi shook her head slightly, and then retreated to her original position.

The old lady sighed: "I can't get used to this medicine." ”

She hurriedly picked up the candied fruit and threw it into her mouth.

Seeing that there was almost no drop left in the bowl, the second wife breathed a sigh of relief as if she had completed the task, and picked up the medicine bowl, "The daughter-in-law didn't disturb Princess Chu to talk to her mother, and she retired." ”

"Hmm." The old lady had no intention of keeping it.

The second wife walked away quickly.

Xue Jinyi took some more candied fruit and said in a low voice: "I always feel that something is not right, in this situation, the more cautious the better." ”

The old lady's eyes were a little heavy, if there was really a problem with this medicine and candied fruit, Sun Suci and her second daughter-in-law were really insidious and vicious!

"Grandmother, don't think about it yet." Xue Jinyi comforted: "Which doctor is my father looking for?" You make an excuse, invite him to take a look at it again, and then ask him to change the prescription, don't tell the Sun family, just call the maid in the yard to decoct the medicine. ”

"I see." The old lady cheered up, "You and King Chu haven't eaten, call Xue Huai over, a few of us will have a happy meal, don't want to mess up first." ”

"Okay." Xue Jinyi replied with a smile.

The old lady called the maid to come in and order, Qinglan went to Xue Huai's courtyard to invite the king of Chu and them over.

Xue Jinyi took advantage of this effort to hand over the handkerchief and candied fruit to Qingzhi and asked her to take them to the doctor.

When the meals were all served on the table, Pu Yangxuan and Xue Huai were late.

"Is it that Xue Huai is naughty again, pestering the King of Chu to instruct him on martial arts?" The old lady asked with a smile, looking at her grandson and grandson-in-law's eyes full of doting.

Xue Huai looked at Pu Yangxuan with admiration, "I still have a lot to learn from my brother-in-law." ”

"For example?" Xue Jinyi asked.

Xue Huai stuck out his tongue at her, "Secret! ”
