Dressed as a villain's stepmother, I use spiritual springs to raise cubs

Xuan Lanhua tightened her grip on the longevity lock next to her pillow, recalling the past.

"At the beginning, not only was she born early, but she was already weak and prone to illness. Hanyi and I were worried, but unexpectedly, a thief came to the house the next night. This longevity lock... was missed at that time. Chaos, and after finally solving the thief, Xueer suddenly fell ill, and since then, her body has been suffering from illness."

Speaking of this, Xuan Lanhua almost rubbed the entire longevity lock into his palm.

Her voice was tinged with tears.

"I thought it was because of the loss of this unique longevity lock that she was plagued by illnesses. She has been weak and sick since she was a child. The doctors said that she probably wouldn't live to be five years old. If it wasn't for Jing Yun's wonderful hand to rejuvenate, she would have died long ago... ...She was suffering too much when she was young, I always thought that when she grows up, she should make up for it...I didn't expect to make up for it..."

Having said that, Xuan Lanhua coughed violently.

A mouthful of blood was spat on the longevity lock.

Silver and white dyed scarlet, especially terrifying.

Shen Momo was so startled that she hurried forward, Xia Bai'an also pressed her lips together tightly.

Every family has scriptures that are difficult to recite, and kind parents may not necessarily be able to teach the same kind children...

"Then let's take care of each other first."

She put on the hood, turned her back to Xuan Lanhua and continued, "Only by taking care of yourself first can you take care of others. It's hard for the foster mother to protect herself now. Although she loves her daughter dearly, she can't put herself in danger."

After finishing speaking, she nodded slightly, and hurriedly followed the servant outside.

After hearing this, Shen Momo felt that Xia Bai'an was too contradictory.

She was clearly gentle before.

Now what he said was selfish and cold.

She was about to comfort Xuan Lanhua a few words, but she saw Xuan Lanhua wiped the blood from the corners of her mouth, closed her eyes and laughed at herself.

"You have to take care of yourself first before you can take care of others... It's right. But, I can't let go of this daughter. It's true that I have a weakness as a mother, and I even forget who I used to be."

Thinking of her before, why not think like Xia Bai'an.

It's just that something happened to her children outside, and she felt as if a piece of her heart had been gouged out by someone, and it hurt.

Shen Momo didn't know how to persuade her, so she just said: "But Madam Xiaowei is sincere to you! She came here several times at night to treat you secretly, even if the young master and young miss are not there...there is still Master Yunjing in the mansion! "

"Cloudscape..."

Xuan Lanhua suddenly came to his senses, thinking of the children in the mansion, he lowered his face again, "You are right, there is still Jing'er in this mansion... I think it has been hidden for many years, and now Yunxuan's whereabouts are unknown, and Hanyi has also been taken care of. Trapped in the palace, Xue'er is so clueless, it's okay, mention Jing'er."

Nanny Shen nodded quickly.

Butler Xu stepped into the room at this time: "Master Qi Ming learned that you woke up, and said that he had something to tell Madam."

"Qi Ming? Let him in."

Xuan Lanhua almost forgot about Qi Ming.

But after a while, Qi Ming came in wearing night clothes, removed the scarf from his face, and looked solemnly.

"Ma'am, the Prime Minister has not returned for a long time now, and no one can tell you the news that your subordinates have received. Now I can only tell you first, so as not to cause accidents to your subordinates and miss the news in vain."

"You child, you only say some unlucky things." Mother Shen frowned.

Qi Ming said again: "Actually, my subordinates have been secretly investigating the dead body in Chizhuang according to the prime minister's orders. After a few days of careful investigation, we found some clues."

When Xuan Lanhua woke up and heard Steward Xu mention this matter, she was shocked at first, but now she felt strange.

"What did you find?"

"The subordinates learned that the eldest lady's longevity lock was left in Chizhuang, and felt that it was not a coincidence. At that time, only Xia Yuan, Anmei and other Xia's family lived in Chizhuang, so the subordinates deliberately investigated Xia Yuan and Anmei. I also went to Qingshan Town and found something wrong."

As Qi Ming said, he suddenly took out a genealogy tree and a bank note from his bosom, "Xia Yuan and An Mei were kicked out of the Xia family ancestral hall for some reason. However, Xia Yuan and An Mei have been giving money to the ancestral hall these years, and even What's more, Xia Yuan Anmei even used the banknotes in the hands of the eldest lady to send them back to her hometown in the ancestral hall."

Even Shen Momo could hear something was wrong.

"If the relationship between the two parties is really severed, why is there still money exchanged?"

Qi Ming replied: "This matter is indeed strange, not only that, but the subordinates also found out that the time when Xia Yuan and An Mei were kicked out of the genealogy was the time when Xia Yuan and An Mei returned home, and it was also the time when the young lady was left behind. In the second half of the Longevity Lock, all kinds of things are connected, it is not so much a coincidence, it is better to say that Xia Yuan and An Mei are hiding something, maybe it has something to do with the thief who attacked the eldest lady."

After hearing this, Steward Xu and Nanny Shen both gasped.

If it were Xia Yuan and An Mei, they really had something to do with the thief that Missy met back then!

Then wouldn't they lure wolves into the house, and treat their enemies with delicious food and drink!

Xuan Lanhua clutched her chest, suppressing the mouthful of fishy sweetness coming up.

It turned out that it wasn't just the daughter who was unfilial!

Even the personal servant girl who grew up with her actually concealed something from herself!

"Continue to investigate!" She ordered coldly, and told Shen Nai, "You also go to mention Jing'er, and order someone to secretly teach him about the housekeeper. location of home."

Both Qi Ming and Shen Momo responded in low voices, and quietly left.

Xuan Lanhua slowly lay back on the mattress, almost breaking the quilt.

Xia Yuan and An Mei, why did they want to kill her daughter!

……

"hiss--"

The back of the neck throbbed sharply.

Xia Bai'an's eyes darkened, and he almost fell to the ground.

The guard in front of the door helped her: "Madam Captain, are you okay?"

"It's okay."

Xia Bai'an stood firm, quickly left the backyard of the prime minister's mansion, and stepped into the darkest night before dawn.

It's strange... Ever since I left Xuan Lanhua's room, I felt a strange throbbing pain in the back of my neck for no reason.

It's completely different from the pain of the blackening warning device. It's like a slight labor pain. It hits me from time to time, as if it's a harbinger of something else happening.

She vaguely had a bad premonition, and quickened her pace to return to the Xia Mansion.

The thoughts in my mind flew up again.

Things in the prime minister's mansion are a mess.

The affairs of Mo Che were even more messy... the matter of the caravan, the matter of Yun Xuan, and what they were doing outside.

Thinking of this, she suddenly remembered what Ao Pingchuan said to herself before. When Pan San was attacked, Yunxuan had left a wound on the opponent's arm, and it was the poisonous one. eliminate.

If only I could look at Mo Che's arm...

She returned to the mansion anxiously, the sky had turned slightly white, and many people had already gotten up to be busy.

She went straight to the main house, opened the door and walked in: "Mo Che, you are away from home, so it's okay..."

Before she finished speaking, she turned her head and saw him bandaging the wound on her arm, she was taken aback immediately.
