Chapter 58
"Seventh Young Master was frightened, I gave him a bowl of calming soup, and Seventh Young Master will wake up in less than an hour." The doctor hurriedly spoke for himself, went up to check Xiyi's pulse again, and suddenly sighed, tearing Jin Xi's heartstrings tightened.The doctor shook his head and sighed: "It's just that the injury on the face of the Seventh Young Master is serious, and I'm afraid it will leave a scar. Not only will it ruin his appearance comparable to Pan An, but he's also afraid that his career will be affected in the future."

According to the Dali law, those with physical disabilities and deformed appearance cannot be officials.Of course, this official only refers to civil servants. Military generals will immediately kill and lick blood. Injuries are common. According to this law, half of the military generals in the Dali calendar will have to disarm and return to the fields.The Zhou family has been civil servants for several generations, and it is impossible for Xiyi to join the army. If her appearance is ruined, she will never want to take the imperial examination and become an official in this life.Such a person is useless to the Zhou family, and Xiyi's life is even more difficult.Whether or not you grow up are two different things!

Jin Xi's heart sank, and Jiu Yiniang, who had been suppressing her grief and not daring to speak out, couldn't bear it any longer, and threw herself on Xi Yi with a 'wow' and wept loudly.

A bastard still wants to be an official?The second lady glanced at Jiu Yiniang who was screaming hoarsely, almost blurted out what was in her heart, swallowed it back on the tip of her tongue, pulled out a handkerchief from her sleeve, wiped her eyes, knelt down in front of the old lady, and said in a crying voice: "It's all the daughter-in-law who is incompetent. The family has no way to cause such a big mess, the daughter-in-law has no face to explain to the second master, and begs the mother to punish her!"

The old lady stomped her feet angrily, "What's going on?"

The second lady didn't reply directly, she glanced at Hongxiao, she hesitated to speak, but she looked scared.Seeing her like this, the old lady suddenly remembered the days when she was young and was bullied by a few foxy concubines without daring to breathe, she suddenly became furious, and she couldn't help but lean towards her, pointing at the red silk and cursing: "What's going on, answer honestly, if you dare to say a lie, I'll take your skin off!"

Hongxiao shivered in fright, hugged her belly and knelt down next to the second lady, "The child in my belly has been tossing a lot lately, I can't eat and can't sleep, I'm afraid it will hurt the second master's flesh and blood, so I went to the garden Walking around, thinking that it might be better to breathe some fresh air, who knows that just after arriving at the lotus pond, the seventh young master rushed out from behind the stone and deliberately bumped into the concubine's stomach. The concubine hid several times, but the seventh young master still refused to give up , bumping into my concubine one after another. The concubine couldn't get angry for a while, stretched out her hand and pushed him, and then accidentally scratched the face of the seventh young master, begging the old lady for mercy, for the sake of the second master's flesh in the concubine's belly, forgive I got a concubine! As for Miss Six and Young Master Seven falling into the water, it really has nothing to do with the slaves, it was Miss Six who jumped into the pool with Young Master Seven in her arms..."

"What are you? You dare to be domineering just because you have a piece of meat in your stomach. My second child is fascinated by you. My eyes are sharp." Flesh and blood, I am sure that others dare not do anything to her.I thought everyone else was a fool, talking nonsense, but Jin Xi is not a lunatic, why is he jumping into the pool with Seventh Brother in his arms?
The old lady was so angry that her seven orifices were full of smoke, and before Hongxiao finished speaking, she cursed: "Shut up this lowly maidservant in the firewood room, and beat her to death on the couch after the child is born. Send the child to be raised in the Zhuangzi, the Zhou family doesn't want this kind of thing." The offspring born of shameless things!"

"Thank you, old lady, this servant is telling the truth!" Even if she knew that what old lady said was angry, Hongxiao was scared out of her wits, and her previous self-confidence evaporated.Stretching his stomach and crawling forward a few steps, he hugged the old lady's leg and cried: "I beg the old lady to be merciful, and I will spare this time, the servant will never dare again."

"Grandmother, don't be angry, even if Aunt Eleven lied, the baby in her belly is still father's child. Please forgive her this time for father's sake," Jin Xi suddenly hugged the old lady's arm to replace Hongxiao Pleading for mercy, not only Hongxiao was stunned, but the second wife was also very surprised.Jin Xi didn't care what they were thinking, she just hugged the old lady's arm and kept pleading for Hong Xiao.

Jinxi longed for Honghao to be punished, but she couldn't let the old lady come forward to punish Honghao.When Hongxiao stabbed Xiyi, only Biling and the fat woman were present, so I couldn't figure out what was going on for a while.Who knows where those two people's mouths are crooked?And seeing that something will happen to Hongxiao's stomach sooner or later, if the second lady can't wait to do something wrong now, wouldn't the old lady want to take the blame for the second lady?

"After all, it's a matter in your room. Let's deal with it yourself when the second child comes back! As a mother, I can manage it for a while, but not forever. Send these two children to me to raise them. This mess is up to you Clean it up yourself!" Although the old lady had a simple mind, after all, she had lived a long time, and she had figured it out after being interrupted by Jin Xi.Seeing the second lady who was kneeling on the ground with a timid and fearful face, her heart was chilling for a while, and she supported her to support her face, but she actually plotted against herself secretly.I am really blind to marry such a good wife!

Jin Xi changed the direction of the matter that came naturally, with a few irrelevant words, and the second lady's heart trembled with hatred.His fingers clenched the handkerchief desperately, and the veins on the back of his hand were tense, so he barely resisted the urge to pounce on Jin Xi and strangle Jin Xi to death.The second lady raised her head and stared at Jinxi coldly, wanting to see clearly why this little girl would always say something irrelevant to children at the most critical moment, but it was just these few childish words that ruined her calculations A long-planned plan.Is it a coincidence or another mystery?

At this time, Jin Xi was looking up at the old lady laughing, the sun fell on her side face, that thin portrait was gilded with a layer of gold, and her face was charming.The slender and thick eyelashes fluttered up and down, like a child asking for candy, with a bright smile on his face.The cheerful expression from the heart is not faked, and only a child can laugh so heartlessly.It seems that she is suspicious!Even if the sixth girl is not a fool, no matter how thoughtful she is, she is just a little girl, how big a wave she can make!
The second lady let out a long breath, annoyed that she was so angry that she would be afraid of a little girl whose hair hadn't grown yet.Looking up, she found that the old lady was carrying the spring stool into the house, and then she remembered that the old lady wanted to take Jinxi and Xiyi to Heling Hall to raise them.With this vague statement, there are more meanings. Is it to heal the wound or to keep it by your side?

The concubine children raised by the old lady will have almost the same status as the legitimate children in the future.In case she has been unable to give birth to a son, and the old lady asks Zhou Bohai to put Xiyi under her name, what reason does she have to stop her?In a hurry, the second lady stretched out her hand to stop the mother-in-law who was about to move Xiyi, "Mother is getting old, so how can I rest well when I put these two in the house to recuperate? Rehabilitation is not a matter of a short period of time. It's even more inconvenient after a long time. Don't worry, mother, it's the same if you raise it with me. My daughter-in-law made a mistake once, so she must cheer up and never make another mistake!"

"This..." The old lady was also a little hesitant. Just now, she was worried about leaving Jinxi with the second lady, and she was afraid that people would say that she was unfair, so she just said that she would take both children back to raise them. if.I didn't think about it carefully, what will I do in the future if I raise these two children by my side.

Jinxi managed to create a chance for Xiyi to get close to the old lady. Of course, she couldn't let the second lady destroy it. She immediately jumped off the bed and said, "Grandmother, take my brother back. I'm fine. With the blessing of grandma, The younger brother will get better soon! Mother has to manage the house and serve father at the same time, she is too busy."

The old lady glared at Hong Kao, who was kneeling on the ground with her stomach upright and pretending to cry, and then looked at Jiu Yiniang, who was crying to death, and felt that Jin Xi's words made sense.The second lady has to take care of this mess, how can she have the energy to take care of other things?Feeling more and more that Jinxi is well-behaved and sensible, she can say anything to her heart, and can always give her a step down. The old lady touched the top of her head lovingly, and said with a smile: "Okay! The sixth girl has a good heart." It’s reasonable, knowing that you love my younger brother, grandma didn’t love you in vain!”

"After I sent my grandmother and younger brother back to Crane Hall, I went to look for my second elder sister. The ointment that my second elder sister used last time was very effective. I begged her to give my seventh brother some, and my seventh brother's face might not be scarred anymore." etc. The old woman lifted Xiyi onto the spring stool, and Jin Xi stood beside the old lady first, helping her to go outside, and before leaving, she did not forget to put some eye drops on the second lady.

"What ointment is so effective?" The old lady stopped and said to the second lady: "You are the wife of the first wife, so you must be generous. Since you can find the ointment for the daughter-in-law to heal the face injury, you will never let the bastard get hurt. reason."

"Mother, don't worry! I'm going to find some ointment for Seventh brother!" The second lady's mouth felt bitter, the ointment was coaxed from Wu Tianyou by Jinxiu.If she told the truth, Jinxiu would gain a reputation of being a private person.To be honest, could it be that she was made to suffer Zhou Yunying's cold face for that bastard Xiyi?
At this moment, even if she knew she would be scorned by Zhou Yunying, the second lady did not dare to ask the old lady to go directly to Zhou Yunying.If she spoke before the old lady, it was for Xiyi's sake.After the old lady gave her instructions, she spoke again, that is, to act opposite to her mother-in-law.With that stinky girl Jinxi on the sidelines, maybe she would be labeled a rebellious one.

Sending the old lady out with a smile on her face, the second lady's face was covered with ice all of a sudden.And behind her, without permission, Hung Hom pulled Bi Ling's arm and struggled to stand up, "Forgive me, Ma'am, I really can't kneel anymore! Those two bastards jumped into the pool by themselves, and it has nothing to do with the slave. It's better for Madam to send someone to find out. If the second master knows that the child in the servant's womb has been wronged, I'm afraid he will feel distressed!"

"That's right! The second master has to worry!" The second lady turned around and looked coldly at Hong Kao, who was puffing out her belly and thought she had escaped a catastrophe, and suddenly wanted to laugh.Punishing the concubine's children and harming the concubine's children are two completely different concepts. This idiot pushed Jinxi and Xiyi off the lotus pond in broad daylight in front of everyone.If this matter is not taken seriously and spread, Zhou Bohai will wait to be questioned by Dali Temple.She didn't believe that Zhou Bohai, who had seen different thoughts and changed his mind, would be so mentally handicapped that he would risk his future and life for a concubine.

Since Hongxiao is hopelessly stupid, she still counts on Zhou Bohai to save her.The second lady didn't want to be a villain either, so she tucked the handkerchief back into her sleeves slowly, and told Bi Ling, "Help the eleventh aunt back to her room, so she can take care of her. We'll wait for the second master to come back to discuss this matter."
