Xie Baiyuan calmly opened his box, which contained a set of top-quality writing brushes, ink, paper and inkstone.

"Thank you, mom. My son likes it very much."

"Well, it's getting late. You should all go back and rest."

"Yes, mother!"

"Yes! Madam!"

Yun Zhihan suddenly thought of Song Lian, "Miss Song, I'll send someone to take you back."

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Madam Xie." She really couldn't walk anymore and her whole body ached. If it weren't for her family, she would never want to set foot in the Xie family in her life.

It’s strange. Everything was going well in the last life. Why did everything change in this life?

Aunt Xu could see that Song Lian was not liked by the ladies, the young masters and the young ladies, so she recommended herself.

"Madam, you are under house arrest, so it is inconvenient for you to see me off. Can I do it for you?"

Yun Zhihan was also tired from playing and was thinking of leaving this troublesome matter to the maid, but unexpectedly Aunt Xu came.

"Thank you for your hard work." She looked at Jinshang, "Go and bring the cakes to Yanjie."

"Yes, ma'am."

Bai Yan took the cake and said happily, "Thank you, ma'am."

"good!"

After that, everyone dispersed.

System: "Song Lian is in a bad mood, points increase by 20. Lifespan increases by one year."

Yun Zhihan's eyes lit up. Thinking that Song Lian was in a bad mood today, she instantly became much happier.

Aunt Xu specially arranged a half-drunk and half-awake coachman to take Song Lian back.

Along the way, the carriage was bumpy and difficult to move, and the coachman seemed to specially drive on bumpy roads, which made Song Lian's pain worse. She went home cursing and estimated that she would not set foot in the Xie family again within a month.

……

After Xie Songqiao was helped back into the house, Yuan immediately asked the servants to call the palace doctor.

In order to hurry on their way, two servants supported the doctor at both ends, one arm each, and dragged him to Xie's house. The doctor was so tired that he almost died.

Before he could recover from the shock, Yuan pulled him to Xie Songqiao.

"Doctor Qian, please take a look at my husband..." As she said this, Yuan started crying.

"Madam, don't panic. Wait for me to diagnose you and then let me know the situation."

The court doctor did not dare to stop for a moment and sat down to take Xie Songqiao's pulse.

Yuan watched the doctor's face turn from rosy to dark blue, and her mood gradually became heavy. If something happened to her husband, how would she and Liang'er survive?

After an incense stick of time, Doctor Qian finally put down his hand and said, "Madam, please move outside. I will prescribe medicine for the master."

"it is good."

Yuan followed him out and asked hurriedly, "Doctor, how is my husband?"

"Madam, the master has injured his bones and muscles. He needs to be recuperated for at least three months. He cannot eat spicy or overly salty food. He should eat light food."

"Besides, the master's illness..." Doctor Qian hesitated for a moment and said soothingly, "Madam, you should be prepared."

"What are you preparing for?" Yuan was panicking. Could it be that her master would never be able to stand up again? No, he wouldn't!

"From the pulse, it seems that the master's injury has affected his kidneys. Even if he recovers, I'm afraid he will no longer be able to have children."

"Doctor, what do you mean?" Yuan grabbed his arm, "Are you saying that the master is impotent?"

"Madam, I am not very talented and knowledgeable. Please find another better job. If you can get help from the imperial physician, there must be a way." After saying this, Doctor Qian got up and left without even asking for the money.

Yuan held him back and said, "Doctor Qian, please prescribe medicine for my master."

Doctor Qian saw that he couldn't escape, so he could only sit back and said, "I will do my best."

Yuan burst into tears. It was not that she was unwilling to find an imperial physician for Xie Baiqiao, but she was a woman and her husband was a concubine. Where could she find a good doctor? Now she could only try her best.

After Doctor Qian wrote the prescription, he left in a hurry.

At this time, Xie Songqiao had a high fever and was in a state of confusion. After the maid gave him medicine, Yuan stayed by his side alone.

She was filled with indignation, blaming the old lady for not helping and Yun Zhihan and Xie Baiyuan for adding fuel to the fire, but she hated Xie Baichen even more.

The doctor just said that if the master was given the usual twenty strokes of the cane, given his physical condition, it would take some time for him to recover, but there would be no aftereffects.

But judging from his current injuries, the other party must have intended to kill him.

The more Yuan thought about it, the more hateful she became. Fortunately, she got the power of household finances. She swore that she would return all the suffering to Old Madam Xie and all her relatives double.

Not long after, Xie Bailiang came back from school. Although he had been studying in a private school, he was a stubborn person and could not learn the essence of the subject no matter how hard he tried.

This was even more true when it came to martial arts. Every time his master taught him some boxing, he would either be lazy or just muddle through. After three years of study, he only knew some mediocre skills.

As soon as he entered the mansion, the servants told him what had happened today.

After hearing this, Xie Bailiang hurried to his parents' residence.

"Mother! How is my father? I heard from the servants that he is injured?"

When Yuan saw her son coming, the grievances that she had had nowhere to vent seemed to have found an outlet all of a sudden.

“Liang’er, you’re finally here. Your father, your father… ahhhh!”

Seeing his mother heartbroken, Xie Bailiang tried to comfort her, only then did he learn that his father had a hidden illness.

"Mom, stop crying and tell me what happened. Why did grandma beat dad? And why did dad humiliate Aunt Yun?"

After Yuan calmed down, she told her son what had happened truthfully, only slightly embellishing some facts.

"Son, now that you have grown up, you must stand up for your father and mother. We are counting on you in the future."

After listening to what his mother said, Xie Bailiang felt sorry for his parents, but he also felt that the two elders had brought it upon themselves.

"Mom, why did Dad insult Aunt without any basis? He knew it was not true."

Yuan did not tell her son that she was the instigator of all this.

"How dare you!" She slapped Liang'er in the face. "How dare you accuse your father like that? Yun Zhihan is a bitch! You can do such a thing, and yet you don't want people to say anything?"

Bai Liang felt wronged, but still retorted, "But, Auntie didn't do it!"

After hearing this, Yuan became even angrier, "Whose son are you anyway? You're such a traitor. I raised you for nothing."

This time, Bai Liang learned his lesson. He didn't dare to talk back and just endured it silently. He was used to it anyway.

Compared with his other two brothers, Xie Bailiang was not only dull in academics, but also timid in character. Moreover, although he was a young master, he was not well-received in the Xie family.

In terms of literature, he is not as good as Xie Boyuan. In terms of martial arts, he is not as good as Xie Bochen. If he goes to make trouble, he will only be like a moth flying into a flame and bring disgrace upon himself.

But Yuan refused to give in and vented all her anger on her son, "You spineless man, if you were half as capable as Xie Boyuan, would your father and I still be as ashamed as we are now?"

"Now, we are so angry that we don't even have anyone to rely on. We might as well die!"

As she said this, she started crying again out of grievance.
