Chapter 7: Regaining Power
Xue Huai didn't feel guilty and muttered, "Isn't this okay?" ”
Hey, it's another master who doesn't deal with it! Xue Jinyi grabbed Mama Yao's arm and said softly, "Let's go see Grandmother." ”
Xue Huai frowned, stretched out his arms to hold Xue Jinyi's way, and shouted: "You uneducated ugly bastard, don't disturb your grandmother......" As he spoke, his brows furrowed even tighter, looking her up and down as if he had seen a ghost, "What are you wearing......"
"Little brat, play with the gnats." Since it was the person who ate croton for the original owner, Xue Jinyi naturally didn't have a good face, waved her hand, simply walked past him, and walked into the house with her feet up.
Xue Huai hurriedly chased in and shouted, "Xue Jinyi, I'm not a little kid anymore!" ”
Xue Jinyi ignored him and raised her eyes to look at Old Madam Xue on the main seat.
The old lady's temples were frosty white, her eyebrows were kind, and she smiled at Xue Huai, and she didn't look at her.
Even so, Xue Jinyi stood still in front of the old lady, kowtowed in a proper manner, and said clearly: "Jinyi greets grandmother." ”
Old Madam Xue paused in greeting Xue Huai, and slowly turned her head to look at the girl kneeling on the ground, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.
"Get up." She said with a calm face, her gaze seemed to return to the gnat, but the corner of her eye kept paying attention to Xue Jinyi's every move.
After Xue Jinyi got up, she sat on the lower right hand position, hung her head slightly and looked very remorseful and ashamed, and whispered: "Jinyi seems to have done too many wrong things all along, until yesterday, she experienced all kinds of things, and she was deeply touched, and she woke up like a dream, and I implore my grandmother to mention more Jinyi in the future to help Jinyi get out of the predicament." ”
Xue Huai also looked at it in surprise, and asked in a weird manner: "Big sister, who taught you this, it's really smooth." ”
Xue Jinyi raised her head, and her bright eyes looked at Old Madam Xue without blinking, "Grandmother, Jinyi's words are from the bottom of her heart. ”
Mama Yao hurriedly defended the young lady and said, "Old lady, the young lady has really become better." ”
Old Madam Xue beckoned and motioned for Xue Jinyi to come close to her.
Xue Jinyi came to the old lady Xue obediently, the old lady's eyes were full of kindness and pity, she stroked her hair and cheeks, and said, "Yesterday, how were you in the palace?" ”
Xue Jinyi knew that the old lady was testing her granddaughter.
The old lady has lived in the inner house for decades, and she has long become a "human spirit", and any disguise under the old lady's "fiery eyes" is a ridiculous trick, and she must show ten percent of her acting skills to win the trust of the old lady.
After all, the original owner used to be a fool, what if he was instigated by Mrs. Xue to act in front of the old lady? Therefore, after she had already hinted at her intentions, it was understandable that the old lady still mentioned something else slowly.
She laughed self-deprecatingly, "That ghost look was naturally ridiculed, and someone kicked it into the pond and almost drowned." Lucky...... This touched the heavens and made Jinyi sober up. ”
Old Madam Xue looked at her face, rubbed her hands, and said slowly: "I heard that the Buddha's light came yesterday, and it seems that it was really enlightened by the Bodhisattva. If your mother's spirit in heaven sees that you have grown, she can be a little relieved. ”
"Well......" Mama Yao also mentioned some past events yesterday, letting Xue Jinyi know that the biological mother of the original owner was a gentle and intelligent woman, and she once had the reputation of "the first talented woman in the capital", but her daughter became like that, which is always embarrassing, right? Xue Jinyi sighed in her heart, and couldn't help rubbing the corners of her eyes, "I can't let my mother down." ”
Old Madam Xue narrowed her eyes and asked, "In the future, what are your plans?" ”
Xue Jinyi glanced at Xue Huai, and after some temptation, it finally came to a more important topic, but doesn't it matter if this little villain is here?
Xue Huai stuck out his tongue at her and grimaced, then turned his head with a cold snort, looking like he was only interested in the gnat's cage.
"Just say it." Old Madam Xue nodded.
Xue Jinyi said: "Don't dare to hide grandmother, Jinyi ...... I forgot a lot of things from the past, and Mama said that this was because God didn't want Jinyi to think about the pain of the past. ”
"Is that so?" Old Madam Xue suddenly grabbed Xue Jinyi's hand.
Xue Jinyi nodded, "Yes." ”
"How can you forget...... Old Madam Xue's eyes flashed with hatred, "Only by remembering those pains can you become the driving force for you to become stronger!" ”
Xue Jinyi was helpless, she also wanted to get the memory of the original owner......
She froze and said word by word: "The memory is gone, but the scars on her body are still there...... Jinyi knew how hard she had been before. ”
Old Madam Xue stared at Xue Jinyi, understanding that there were some things that she couldn't force now, and patted the back of her hand, "I'll tell you everything." Tell me first, what are your plans? ”
Xue Jinyi said seriously: "What Jinyi can do now is to cultivate her body, regulate her body, and enrich her knowledge at the same time. What will happen in the future, Jinyi is young and knows too little, so it is all up to her grandmother to mention it. ”
Old Madam Xue nodded, "Yes, there are many things that need to be done slowly, and you can't rush it for a while." But! Her tone suddenly increased, making Xue Jinyi can't help but look up at her face, "It can't be too slow, otherwise with Sun Suci's ambition, it's too late, I'm afraid the Xue family will have to change their surname to Sun!" This is the wealth and status that the Xue family has painstakingly accumulated for generations, how can it be cheaper for that poisonous woman. ”
Old Madam Xue's eyes burst out with hatred, her body trembled slightly, and her fingers couldn't help clenching into fists, which showed how much anger she had in her heart.
Xue Jinyi cautiously asked, "Grandmother, what's going on?" ”
"Your mother was born in a scholarly family, which is equivalent to the Xue family, and she is the only daughter-in-law candidate in my heart. Who knew that your mother was gone at a young age, so this was cheaper for the woman surnamed Sun!
"Sun Suci was born in a merchant family, and it stands to reason that such an identity and status cannot be your father's continuation at all, but he used fox charm to seduce your father. When she first entered the Xue family, she pretended to be well-behaved and filial, and coaxed the clansmen properly, so that we all relaxed, and when we came back to our senses, we found that she had firmly controlled the power of the Xue family, and dug up the Xue family's money and sent it to their Sun family, and then the title of Duke Wei Guo would have to be surnamed Sun!
"And your father...... It's really a ghost who is confused, and he obeys the poisonous woman, I really don't know how the Wei Guogong, who assisted the current saint to lay down this country, could be so confused about women's affairs! Speaking of this, Mrs. Xue slapped the table heavily, and the teacup was shaken to a "bang".
Xue Jinyi and Xue Huai invariably stepped forward to care about the old lady, she stroked the old lady's back and helped her smooth out, while Xue Huai poured the tea again.
Old Madam Xue took a sip of tea, and after a while, she relieved herself, grabbed Xue Jinyi and Xue Huai's hands, and asked seriously: "Sun Suci is covering the sky with one hand in the Xue family, are you afraid, Jinyi?" ”
"If I had been afraid, I wouldn't have come to visit my grandmother right away." Xue Jinyi smiled calmly: "Instead of living in the world, it is better to earn a bright future for yourself." ”
If it weren't for the fact that her appearance hadn't changed, Old Madam Xue would really not recognize her granddaughter.
"It is worthy of being the descendant of the Xue family, and the blood in his bones has not disappeared!" She clapped her hands and laughed, "How the poisonous woman treats you viciously in front of people and after you on weekdays, you have to keep in mind, turn this hatred into strength, and whether you can keep the glory of the Xue family in the future depends on the two of you." ”
By the two of them? Xue Jinyi looked at Xue Huai puzzled, who would have expected that this kid would stick out his tongue in front of the old lady and stick out his tongue in front of her, and he was very unbeaten.
"Don't worry, grandmother." After Xue Huai grimaced, he immediately replied, "I will definitely not disappoint you, and I will not disappoint the ancestors of the Xue family." ”
This kid is really clever...... Xue Jinyi calmed down and said, "That's right, Jinyi will always keep it in mind. ”
"Good, good." The knot in Old Madam Xue's heart opened a little, and her tone became brisk, "Jinyi, the courtyard where you live now, can you go into the west wing?" ”
"I just cleaned the main house yesterday, and I haven't had time to look at the other wings." Xue Jinyi replied.
Old Madam Xue smiled: "That poisonous woman thought she was torturing you, but what she didn't know was ...... When you get back, open the West Wing, which has something to help you with. ”
