Mrs. Ruan stood there for a long time, then straightened her back, turned around and entered the house, closing the door behind her back.
Xiangtao smiled when she saw this scene, she felt happy from the bottom of her heart.
After all, grandma changed and was different from before.
If this had happened in the past, she would have come up to help people without saying anything, with a concerned look on her face. What's more, she would have blamed her for not helping Xuezhi.
Good, get better. Otherwise, Sister Shiqing’s efforts are really not worth it at all.
There is no need to support a cold-blooded person in his old age.
Xuezhi was lying on the ground, her hands were in terrible pain, and she couldn't see her eyes, and it was an unfamiliar environment to her. This made her lose control of her emotions and burst into tears on the spot.
She just wanted to ask her sister for forgiveness, she just wanted to tell her sister that the people in the Zhenguo Hou Mansion wanted to harm her, and she just wanted to give the money to the madam to make up for the kindness she had done to her in the past.
Why, why didn't anything go as expected, and even my hand was injured.
My hand hurts terribly. Is it broken?
What should she do in the future? There are still bugs Su Zining put on her body. Is she really just waiting to die?
Mrs. Ruan inside the house heard Xuezhi's bursting cry, her lips pursed into a straight line, and then she took a deep breath, forcing herself to calm down and stop caring about things outside.
From now on, she will not deal with these things and does not want to give that girl a glimmer of hope.
She has made too many mistakes and owed too many people. She cannot make mistakes again and again because of that girl.
People always have to grow up. Setbacks are inevitable.
Only by learning to face it by yourself can you truly stand up.yyls
Xiangtao's eyes always fell on the closed door. She was very satisfied when she saw that Xuezhi had been crying for so long and her grandmother had no intention of coming out.
"Stop yelling, it's annoying!"
Xiangtao said, reaching out to pull Xuezhi up from the ground.
Considering that her hand might be broken, he directly helped her into the hall and found a stool for her to sit on.
Guizhi and Zisu had been delivered, so he said to Xiangtao in the room: "Sister Xiangtao, the people have been delivered. I'll take my leave first!"
Zi Su and Guizhi are both older than Xiang Tao, but in their eyes, Xiang Tao's status is slightly higher than theirs, so they call her sister to show their respect.
Xiang Tao also stayed in Duke Ning's Mansion for a period of time, so she naturally knew this truth, so she didn't deny it. She nodded when she heard the words: "Go, I will make arrangements here. You can rest assured, Aunt Su Xin."
After Zi Su and Guizhi left, Xuezhi had a pale face and was still sobbing.
Xiangtao didn't ask anyone to call the doctor, but sat directly next to her and said, "Aren't you in the Zhenguo Marquis' Mansion? Why did you run out? Who sent you out?"
Hearing this, Xuezhi felt aggrieved and sad, and couldn't stop crying: "Cousin Xiangtao, can you hire a doctor for me? If anything happens, I will tell you everything after I heal my hand."
As she said this, she was afraid that Xiangtao wouldn't invite her, so she hurriedly said, "You don't need to spend money. I have it. I can pay for it myself."
Hearing her words, Xiangtao looked her up and down again, and then his eyes fell on the bundle on the table.
She thought for a while, then walked over and reached out to untie it.
There was actually nothing in the baggage, only two pairs of clothes and a brocade box.
Seeing the brocade box, Xiangtao's eyes fell on Xuezhi again.
Is this the money she mentioned?
Thinking of this, she opened the brocade box. When she saw that it was full of one hundred taels of silver notes, which was quite a lot, she looked at Xuezhi with a complicated expression.
When Xuezhi heard the sound of the brocade box being opened, she knew that Xiangtao was checking her baggage. She was furious and felt that she had been insulted.
But soon, she lowered her head.
People under the eaves had to bow their heads, and she knew some about Xiang Tao and knew that she would not keep her banknotes as her own.
"I have three thousand taels, and I got it from Su Zining. This time when I left the house, she wanted me to get close to my sister, and she wanted me to kill her when she was not prepared. But how is this possible? I used to
I was young, stupid, and did so many wrong things. I knew I was wrong, and even if I died, I wouldn't let her get her wish."
Xuezhi knew that she had to explain the origin of the money in the brocade box, so she endured the pain and said: "I told her that if she wanted me to help her, she would have to give me five thousand taels. She didn't know why she couldn't do anything.
, I can only agree. When I came out, she gave her three thousand taels. I planned to give my wife two thousand silver notes, which was regarded as compensation for her by the Zhenguo Marquis Mansion, and also as my repayment for her kindness in educating me. The remaining
With the money, I originally planned to take my father and grandma back to the countryside to live..."
When she said this, her tone was very lonely, and Xiang Tao didn't interrupt her, waiting for her to continue.
"Su Zining didn't trust me after all. They made a cut on my neck and put a bug into my body. I want my sister to cure my eyes and remove the bug. As long as it is cured, I will stay away.
If you leave the capital far away, you will never step foot here again."
When Xiang Tao heard what she said, his eyes fell on her neck.
I did see a wound there, but it was so superficial that if I didn't look closely, I wouldn't have noticed it.
Xuezhi couldn't see her eyes and didn't know what the wound was like. Maybe she noticed Xiang Tao's gaze, so she subconsciously reached out and touched her neck, saying: "They have been putting ointment on me every day for the past few days. Now I should
It's almost healed, and I don't want anyone to find out."
Xiangtao actually didn't believe Xuezhi. She knew this girl's nature and always felt that she was being good.
After gaining their trust, wait for the opportunity to act.
"I also know that maybe you don't believe me, but I can swear that what I said is true. Cousin Xiangtao, I really know that I was wrong. Can you hire a doctor for me now? Also, I
If I want to see my sister, my eyes also need her."
Xuezhi couldn't help but burst into tears as she spoke.
Her hand was really hurting now, and she was afraid that if she continued to delay, even if her eyes were healed, she would become crippled in the future.
She doesn't want that. She is still young and has a long way to go in the future. She wants to live a healthy life.
"I will keep this money for you. I will ask you to be a doctor. If you ask me to be honest, I will return the money to you when the matter is over. It's up to you where you want to go."
Xiang Tao said, closed the brocade box, took it and walked out.
She knows how greedy Xuezhi is for money. Now that she has withheld all the money, the girl will not dare to act rashly unless she doesn't want the money.
Xuezhi opened her mouth when she heard this, but finally swallowed it without shouting.
After Xiangtao came out of the room, she stood in the courtyard holding the brocade box.
It was obviously a hot day, but she didn't feel hot at all. Instead, she felt chilled from the bottom of her heart.
