Xie Lingxi looked at Ge with a worried look on her face.

"I heard that my aunt wasn't feeling well. I wanted to come over last night, but I was afraid to disturb my aunt and uncle, so I waited all night and came over early."

Then he began to care about Ge's health.

Mrs. Ge was quite pleased with Xie Lingxi's enthusiasm. She said with a smile that she was fine. They became more affectionate as they interacted with each other, and she even forgot about Master Yang beside her.

While Xie Lingxi was talking to the lady, Master Yang kept staring at the girl's expression and indeed didn't notice anything wrong.

His eyes were full of genuine concern, and even Master Yang, who claimed to be knowledgeable, could not see anything wrong.

Anyway, compared to the superficial efforts of those two ungrateful people, Ge Xinghua and Ge Guihua, Xie Lingxi really showed her concern.

Because Xie Lingxi was not just talking, she also brought a lot of gifts, which were all carefully prepared and all of which were what the Ge family needed. This was true care, and the words she said were also very touching.

But it was precisely because she was too thoughtful that Master Yang felt strange. It was really that Xie Lingxi was too thoughtful, even more thoughtful than herself as her husband.

But Master Yang didn't say anything. Instead, he waited until Xie Lingxi finished her polite exchanges with his wife before he cleared his throat and spoke.

"By the way, Lingxi, you just said that you sent me a recipe for making soup. Madam Xie has tried it before. I wonder if you know how to make it?"

Xie Lingxi was a little surprised and said, "I learned from my mother at home and made soup a few times. The taste was not bad, but I was not satisfied. I thought I would make it for my aunt when it tasted best."

Master Yang raised his eyebrows and smiled.

"I'll just make soup for you. Why would I ask you to come over and make soup for your aunt every day?"

"How about this, you teach me. It happens that your aunt has just taken medicine, let her have a good sleep. The doctor said that she needs to rest well and sleep more in her current condition."

After hearing this, Xie Lingxi did not refuse, but nodded with a smile.

"That's great. It's rare that your uncle loves you so much. I'll teach you. I know how to do it anyway."

However, Mrs. Ge felt that her husband was a little abnormal. Thinking of what he had just said, she subconsciously wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Master Yang.

"Madam, you should take a rest first. I will take Xie Lingxi to the kitchen to learn how to make soup. You can taste it after you have rested well."

He didn't give Ge any chance to speak.

Xie Lingxi also echoed.

Mrs. Ge could only swallow back the words that were about to come out of her mouth.

Maybe I'm overthinking?

Ge was thinking so in her heart. She was indeed a little sleepy and her eyelids began to droop, so she lay down with the help of Master Yang.

As soon as the quilt was covered, Ge felt dizzy and said to Xie Lingxi.

"Lingxi, don't be too tired. I'll take a nap and get up to talk to you later."

Xie Lingxi smiled and nodded: "Don't worry, auntie, I don't have anything to do. I'll stay at your house today, you can have a good rest."

Mrs. Ge smiled and talked for a while, her voice getting lower and lower. Seeing that Mrs. Ge fell asleep, Xie Lingxi followed Master Yang out of the room.

Master Yang had a polite smile on his face.

"Lingxi, let's go to the kitchen."

Xie Lingxi noticed Master Yang's attitude, but did not point it out. Instead, she nodded and followed Master Yang to the kitchen obediently.

The ingredients and everything were prepared according to Xie Lingxi's requirements. Xie Lingxi dictated and Master Yang came in person.

After putting the necessary ingredients into the casserole for making soup and lighting the fire, Master Yang fanned the fire with a palm-leaf fan in one hand and asked casually.

"Lingxi, you are so thoughtful. You even sent a doctor here last night. But you are well-informed. I told the people in the mansion not to tell anyone about your aunt's miscarriage. How did you know so quickly?"

Xie Lingxi had long guessed that with Master Yang's intelligence, he would definitely be able to detect something unusual.

Before sending the doctor yesterday, she hesitated, but finally sent the doctor anyway.

The main reason is that it might arouse Master Yang's suspicion.

But she wanted to protect Ge and her child, and she had no bad intentions, so she sent it over anyway.

Xie Lingxi's answer was also very frank.

"I found out so quickly because I care about my aunt. I know that what I did was not good, but I was really worried about my aunt's health, so I specially sent someone to keep an eye on the situation of the Yang family."

Master Yang's eyes changed, and the hand holding the palm-leaf fan stopped. He turned around and stared straight at Xie Lingxi.

"You said you sent people to keep an eye on the Yang family. Are you spying on the Yang family?"

Xie Lingxi could hear the displeasure in Master Yang's tone. She would also be unhappy if it were her, but Xie Lingxi still spoke sincerely.

"Uncle, I said I was concerned, not monitoring your letter, right?"

Master Yang snorted, "Lingxi, you've only been sworn brothers with my wife for a few days, and you've already sent people to keep an eye on the Yang family? It's not that I'm being polite, but your behavior is really a bit too much. Even if you are my wife's niece, you shouldn't do such a thing."

Xie Lingxi smiled bitterly: "Uncle, I knew you would say that."

Speaking of this, Xie Lingxi's expression became more serious and sincere.

"But uncle, please believe me. I am really doing this for the good of my aunt. I am really not spying on the Yang family."

Master Yang did not believe Xie Lingxi immediately, but asked again.

"Those doctors, if I'm not mistaken, should have been invited from outside the city, right? And each of them is an expert in gynecology. No one in your Xie family needs them. Did you prepare them?"

"That's really thoughtful. I don't believe you didn't plan it in advance. If you want me to believe that you have no ill intentions, why don't you explain first? Did you prepare for those doctors in advance? Did you also expect my wife to have a miscarriage?"

Master Yang even had a dark thought: Was it Xie Lingxi who deliberately instigated Ge Xinghua to say those words?

He asked the servants in the mansion about what happened yesterday. Xie Lingxi told Ge Xinghua in front of her that she wanted to find a husband for Ge Xinghua, and her attitude was very enthusiastic, which really made people doubt Xie Lingxi's motives.

Logically speaking, it is a bit unreasonable to get involved in the affairs of your aunt's family on the first day of becoming your godparents. Xie Lingxi is a lady from a marquis's mansion and she shouldn't be so out of touch.

All in all, there was something wrong with what Xie Lingxi said to Ge Xinghua, and it all revealed that Xie Lingxi had ulterior motives, which made Master Yang wonder whether Xie Lingxi had intentionally said those things to Ge Xinghua.

But he really couldn't think of any benefit for Xie Lingxi by making his wife angry. The two had never met before and had no grudges against each other. Why would Xie Lingxi do this?
