"Hongye, did Brother Xiao go to school today? Ahem."

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Ruanxi coughed violently. He raised his hand to cover his mouth with a handkerchief. After the cough subsided a little, he took away the handkerchief and found that it was dotted with blood stains. Jiang Ruanxi seemed to be used to it. He folded it , put it aside.

Seeing this, Hong Ye was filled with heartache. He stepped forward and stroked her back, frowning and saying, "Madam, your current health is mainly to take care of your own body. Why are you worried about the young master?"

"It's not like you don't know that the Marquis values ​​brother Xiao the most and asked me to teach him carefully. He is at a naughty age now and doesn't know the depth. If he offends the master..."

I thought I didn't understand even after talking about Hongye, so I waved my hand to get out of bed, "I'd better go and see for myself before I feel relieved."

"Madam, your body." Hongye stopped her.

She is not worth it for Jiang Ruan Xi.

Jiang Ruan Xi was so ill, but Lin Ningkun had never visited Jiang Ruan Xi, and Jiang Ruan Xi didn't seem to care, and treated Lin Ningkun's stepson as if he were his own.

"I am fine."

Hongye couldn't resist her and could only help her up.

After getting dressed, her eyes were a little confused. She didn't know where to find someone. Hongye saw her confusion and said, "Madam, when I got up in the morning, I saw that the young master seemed to have left through the back door."

Jiang Ruanxi knew that Lin Xiao was naughty, so he just thought he had sneaked out to play through the back door and left the Hou Mansion through the back door.

Lying at the door of the Hou Mansion was a beggar who was wearing patched clothes but looked very clean.

Seeing how pitiful she was, Jiang Ruanxi knelt down and gave him a few coins.

The beggar glanced at the copper plate on the ground, looked up at her, and couldn't help but shook his head, "My wife was originally rich and noble, but it's a pity that her fate was changed..."

Hearing this, Jiang Ruanxi stiffened, thinking that he had heard wrongly, "What did you just say?"

"To be honest, Madam's face is destined to be rich and noble, and this destiny is brought from the mother's womb. You were supposed to be blessed throughout your life. Unfortunately, you were changed later, causing Madam to be plagued by bad luck and deceived. But now There is an evil aura in Madam's face, she is afraid that her end is approaching."

Jiang Ruanxi's face instantly turned pale, her body swayed uncontrollably, and she almost fell. Hongye quickly supported her and called out worriedly, "Madam."

Jiang Ruanxi shook his hand and said it was okay.

After Hongye confirmed that she was fine, he turned to the beggar and shouted, "You, a beggar, are talking nonsense. Madam, don't believe his nonsense."

"I studied under the nameless Taoist master of Qingheng Mountain and devoted myself to the study of physiognomy. This time I went down the mountain just for practice. I told my wife that I just wanted to see how kind her face was. I couldn't bear to let her be deceived to death without knowing the truth."

The beggar was unhappy at being questioned. He raised his hand and pointed to the alley not far away, "Madam, if you don't believe it, why don't you go to the alley next to it and take a look."

Jiang Ruanxi looked along his fingers.

That alley is her neighbor to the west.

"Madam, don't believe her. It's better for us to go find the young master."

Jiang Ruan Xi's mind is filled with thoughts about beggars, so he needs some verification.

Because she was originally the legitimate daughter of Marquis Rong Yi, but she was taken away and raised in a merchant's family since she was born. As a result, she married into the Lin family for so many years. Because of her status, she was always looked down upon by her husband's family.

Now she just wants to know the truth.

"Mother."

Jiang Ruan Xi's body stiffened when a familiar shout came.

This voice was Lin Xiao's, but he always called his mother, so who was calling her mother this time?

Jiang Ruanxi's body trembled and she wanted to continue walking over, but her body couldn't exert any strength.

Seeing this, Hongye supported her body and walked towards the house step by step.

Through the crack in the door, she finally saw the scene inside, but was so surprised that she couldn't say a word.

The layout inside is exactly the same as the courtyard of Rong Yihou Mansion.

No, to be precise, it is exactly the same as Jiang Xuerou's yard.

In the large courtyard, there is a waterfall-like flowing water in the middle of the courtyard. The plum blossoms all over the courtyard are blooming, red and white. It can be seen that the flowers are carefully maintained.

"Mother, Xiao'er misses you so much. Why doesn't that woman die soon? Then I can see my mother every day."

Vicious and disgusting words were like countless needles shooting into Jiang Ruan Xi's heart.

"Mother, Xiao'er, be a good boy. You must not say such words in the Marquis Mansion. It's not good for others to hear."

The familiar voice made Jiang Ruan Xi's eyes filled with disbelief.

Is this Jiang Xuerou?

She has been the fake daughter of the eldest daughter of the Jiang family since she was a child.

But, didn't she become a widow after marrying into the prince's mansion?

Why is she here?

"Huh, just hear it, I'm not afraid. That woman forces me to study every day, and it's annoying to death. In order to stabilize her position, she talks about me becoming successful and getting ahead all day long, so that she can support her in the future."

"You..." Jiang Xuerou looked at Lin Xiao with a distressed expression, but deliberately pointed at his forehead with a cold face and said cautiously.

"Okay, don't blame our Xiao'er. That woman is not worthy of being Xiao'er's mother."

A jade-like man emerged from inside. He was already over thirty years old, but he still looked like he was in his early twenties. Especially when looking at Jiang Xuerou, her eyes were shining as bright as stars.

The look of crazy infatuation made Jiang Ruanxi feel a pain in his heart.

If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she wouldn't have believed that her cold husband could have such hot feelings, but not for herself.

But Dingninghou Mansion and Zhenguo Hou Mansion are related by marriage. Lin Ningkun’s sister is married to the old marquis of Zhenguo Hou Mansion, and Jiang Xuerou is the wife of the deceased son of Zhenguo Marquis Mansion, so she should be called Lin Ningkun’s uncle in terms of seniority. .

But they got together shamelessly.

Jiang Ruanxi felt sick and had a sick feeling.

He covered his chest and suppressed the disgust in his heart.

"Brother-in-law is right, she is not worthy in the first place."

At this time, under the red plum tree on the side, a man in black clothes came out again. That was his second brother Jiang Changjun.

I saw him looking at Jiang Xuerou with a look of pity on his face.

"You were originally the eldest daughter of Marquis Rong Yi, but Jiang Ruanxi took away your position and everything you had, leaving you to live in darkness for the past few years.

Fortunately, your brother-in-law has a deep love for you and built this courtyard for you with his own hands. Now as long as you wait until she dies, you can see the light again. "

"Okay, now is the day for our family reunion. Why do you mention that outsider?"

After a while, another beautiful woman came out of the inner courtyard, holding hot soup in her hand.

"Xue'er, be good, drink this bowl of medicine, and when your body gets better and that person dies, you can go out openly, and we will be truly reunited."

Jiang Ruanxi's breathing became rapid, and her heart felt as if it had been cut into pieces by a thousand knives, because in addition to his husband-in-law, there were also people here including her mother and even her brother.

She was abandoned when she was born and was adopted by a kind-hearted merchant family.

When she was born, the Marquis Rongyi Mansion sent someone to take her back and promised her a marriage to the Lin family.

After Lin Ningkun met her, he hurriedly went to work elsewhere, leaving the defeated Lin family for her to take care of.

Although she was confused and helpless, she managed to support the family by relying on the dowry given to her by her adoptive father and mother.

Five years later, Lin Ningkun came back and brought back a child, saying that he was the orphan of a close friend. He wanted to take good care of him, so he entered the family tree.

At that time, she was completely focused on him and trusted him very much, so she never doubted the child's life experience.

Even though Lin Ningkun has always been unwilling to sleep with her, she is willing to do so as long as she can guard him like this.

Later, because of this child, her parents and brothers, who had never interfered with her after she got married, often came to the mansion as guests, and they became closer to her. She only regarded this child as her lucky star, and became more and more attentive to him.

"Grandma, grandfather, uncle, mother, father and Xiao'er, we are a real family."

The childish voice was extremely clear, yet extremely sarcastic.

Looking at the happy scene in front of her, including her parents, siblings, and the person she loved most, it was the scene she had dreamed of. Unfortunately, their smiles were not directed at her.

She bit her trembling lips and covered her sad chest. Her eyes were already scarlet. No matter what she did, she, Jiang Ruan Xi, was just an outsider from beginning to end.

"Miss, what's going on?" Hongye asked with confusion.

Jiang Ruanxi felt his ears buzzing and his heart hurt as if someone was grabbing him.

She did not expect that her relatives, who were careful to please, never regarded her as a relative.

The person she loves most has never been sincere to her, only used him.

The children she raised carefully saw herself as her enemy.

Jiang Xuerou's heart suddenly contracted, causing a violent cough and a mouthful of blood spraying out.

She raised her head, and in a daze, she seemed to see the disgust in Lin Ningkun and Lin Xiao's eyes, the indifference in the eyes of her own father, mother and brother, and the pride in Jiang Xuerou's eyes...
