Chapter 441 Fishing in troubled waters
Hong Ling gave him a strange look, and didn't stop as he said, she even sped up her movements, dragging Aunt Wu directly into the gate of the main courtyard in three steps at a time.

There were guards guarding the gate of the main courtyard, and Xue Yue couldn't get in even if he wanted to, so he had to watch bitterly through a door.

Hong Ling dragged Aunt Wu to the open space that Xue Shu had pointed out earlier, and played with her like a doll, then stretched out her hand and tore off the cloth ball from Aunt Wu's mouth.

As soon as Hong Ling got up, Aunt Wu's body fell to the ground uncontrollably, she fell firmly, and was immediately lifted up by Hong Ling: "Kneel down!"

Xue Chen silently looked away.

Aunt Wu lowered her head and laughed twice, and said: "Ma'am, if you want to vent your anger, you can do whatever you want, but my Yao'er and His Highness the Third Highness have already done something, even if you are reluctant, when your anger subsides, it will be fine." Or do you have to speak for my Yaoer?"

Her voice was hoarse, like a ghost from hell whispering, which gave people goosebumps even in the daytime.

Xue Shu frowned, and said, "Aunt Wu, you've bothered to plan this out, but have you ever asked Third Younger Sister if she would like it?"

Aunt Wu laughed again: "Yao'er is young, so she can know what is good and what is bad?"

"So, you drugged the third sister?" Xue Shu stared at her with a calm tone.

Aunt Wu was shocked and refused to speak any more.

Xue Chen opened his eyes wide and looked at Aunt Wu.

As a mother, drug your own daughter?
crazy?

She refused to speak, and Xue Shu didn't bother to talk to her, so she asked Mama Zhang to bring some tea and snacks, and then she ate slowly.

While eating, the sun slowly came to the top of the head, Xue Shu glanced at Aunt Wu, then turned around and called Hong Ling: "Go and get a table of hot pot."

"Yes."

Xue Chen pursed his lips.

He is lucky today.

He glanced at Aunt Wu.

Aunt Wu has been pampered and raised for so many years, and her body is not strong. She has only knelt for a whole morning, and her face is as golden as paper, her body is crumbling, obviously she has reached her limit.

But Hong Ling had been sitting next to her, and when she saw that she was about to fall, she reprimanded her, so she had to grit her teeth and straighten up again.

Seeing this appearance, Xue Chen was worried.

In the future, if anyone says that backyard girls have nothing to do, Xue Chen will be the first to disagree.

Look at the scene in front of him, even Xue Lu didn't make a move, Xue Shu killed Aunt Wu half by herself, if Xue Lu did it himself, Xue Chen couldn't even imagine what it would be like scene.

Soon, Hong Ling led a group of people to set up the hot pot.

As soon as the red soup boiled, the spicy smell spread far away, making people's index fingers twitch.

No one can resist such a temptation.

Especially Aunt Wu who has been kneeling all morning without a drop of water.

At this moment, the sun above the head became more and more scorching, and the servants of the main courtyard set up the sun-shading tent so that the master could eat with peace of mind.

Accompanied by Mrs. Zhang, Xue Lu also came out of the house. His eyes stayed on Aunt Wu for a moment, then moved away without a trace, walked to the table and took a seat: "You will enjoy it."

"I didn't sleep well last night, so I naturally want to eat something good today." Xue Shu said, took a piece of meat and threw it into the red oil pan.

Seeing the piece of meat tumbling in the pot and changing its color, Xue Shu was about to put down her chopsticks, but Xue Chen who was beside her had already taken a step ahead and put the piece of meat into her own plate.

"Are you healed? Have you stopped the medicine?" Xue Chen slowly blew on the hot air on the flesh.

Xue Shu: "..."

Fishing in troubled waters failed.

Xue Lu hooked her lips, called Mama Zhang to come over, and directly took away the chopsticks from Xue Shu's hand: "Ask the kitchen to make another table for you."

"... Oh." Xue Shu's eyes seemed to be glued to the pot of red soup, and she couldn't move her eyes away.

Xue Chen laughed and ordered half a plate of meat.

It's all his!

Xue Shu looked at Xue Lushi and Xue Chen who were eating happily, and suddenly wanted to leave.

It always feels like she shouldn't be here right now.

Fortunately, the cook's hands and feet were also nimble, and she quickly served a light meal, which was placed in front of Xue Shu.

Something to eat is better than nothing to watch.

Smelling the smell of hot pot, eating bland food, the more I ate, the more I felt that what I was eating was boiled in plain water without any seasoning.

Xue Shu was very unhappy.

Aunt Wu glanced at the three mother and daughter who were buried in their food, swallowed hard, and then looked away.

Although you can't see it with your eyes, the smell is pervasive. Aunt Wu closed her eyes and used all her life's concentration to control herself from drooling.

You can't be in a hurry when you eat hot pot, and it's no big deal to eat hot pot for an hour.

However, seeing Xue Shu's not-so-good-looking face, Xue Lu and Xue Chen quickly resolved the battle with conscience, and then asked the servants to take away the hot pot.

Xue Lu wiped the corners of her mouth, then glanced at Aunt Wu who was almost unable to kneel, and said: "Shu'er, go back and rest first, let people watch here."

Xue Shu nodded, got up and walked away with heavy steps.

Xue Lu looked at Xue Chen again, and said: "Your third younger sister has always been close to you, you go and ask her what she wants. If she wants to talk to you, you can talk with her." For a while, just a little bit, don't reveal that Aunt Wu is kneeling here, if Xue Yao asks, just say that she is here, don't say a word more than that."

"Yes." Xue Chen hurriedly got up and left.

After the children had left, Xue Lu looked at Aunt Wu: "You still refuse to say?"

Aunt Wu pursed her lips, and her eyelashes trembled slightly.

"Why didn't you realize that your bones are so hard?" Xue Lu smiled instead of anger, "Wu, do you really think that if Xue Yao and the third prince cook raw rice, she will definitely be able to sit on the third prince's concubine?" seat?"

Hearing her talking about Xue Yao, Aunt Wu opened her eyes again: "Isn't it? Could it be that the Lord and Madam can still let Yao'er be a concubine?"

For a family like Zuo Xiangfu, if the daughter of the family becomes someone else's concubine, she will be laughed at to death.

"Why not?" Xue Lu asked back, "Xue Yao did such a shameless thing, even if she was a concubine, she would burn incense if Xue Yao did such a shameless thing. What do you think the royal family is? Make it right?"

A concubine, if the third prince refuses to have it, the royal family has plenty of ways to make this concubine disappear completely.

Aunt Wu's face turned pale: "No, it's impossible, the eldest girl said, even if it's for the sake of face, the Xue family will never allow Yao'er to be a concubine...it's impossible..."

Xue Lushi was far away, only saw her lips moving, as if she was talking, but couldn't make out what she said.

"Ma'am, you didn't sleep well this morning, go back and take a nap," Zhang's mother walked over, "If you have any questions, let's ask in the afternoon."
