When Ge Guihua heard her say this, her face changed slightly and she gritted her teeth and said.

"Ge Xinghua, why are you so stubborn? Isn't it good to be alive? Why do you have to seek death? Even if you live like a dog, at least you are alive, right? Didn't you say that as long as you are alive, you still have a chance to turn things around? Just come back with me."

"Isn't it just marrying a cripple or a blind man? One can't walk, and the other can't see. At least they can't hit you or scold you. Maybe it's a good marriage. You are so capable, your life will definitely be good!"

Ge Guihua said a lot of things, and Ge Xinghua was angry, but suddenly seemed to have made a decision.

She looked at Ge Guihua coldly and asked.

"Do you really think marrying a blind or lame man is a good marriage?"

For some reason, Ge Guihua felt a chill when Ge Xinghua stared at her like that.

However, thinking of Ge Xinghua's current situation, all she needed was a push, so she nodded.

"Of course, it's better than marrying a strong man who likes to beat people, right?"

Suddenly, Ge Xinghua sneered and looked at Ge Guihua with cold eyes, but her tone was very calm.

"Well, if you think this is a good marriage, then it is a good marriage. I will go back with you."

Ge Guihua was a little surprised that the stubborn donkey suddenly changed his mind. She was happy but also nervous at the same time, because Ge Xinghua's expression was not the resigned expression she thought it was.

It was an expression of indifference and numbness.

What does Ge Xinghua want to do now?

Ge Guihua wanted to ask, but when she met Ge Xinghua's cold eyes, she didn't dare to, for fear that she would get angry and leave if she said a few more words, so she spoke honestly.

"Well, let's go back then?"

This time, Ge Xinghua did not object and just took the initiative to walk towards home.

Ge Guihua felt that something was wrong, but she didn't dare to ask, so she could only follow him obediently.

The two passed by a silk shop, and Qiao'er and Lan Ye came out of the shop.

A man dressed like a passerby came forward and whispered something in Qiao'er Lanye's ear. The two nodded, and the man left and returned to the Yang family.

This person was specially sent by Xie Lingxi to keep an eye on the Yang family. He was just temporarily following the Ge Xinghua and sister to keep an eye on them.

Qiao Er looked at Lan Ye and said, "What does Ge Xinghua want to do? She finally escaped, why is she going back? And what did she mean by what she said just now?"

Lan Ye's eyes flickered slightly, and she had a guess in her mind, but since nothing was confirmed, she didn't want to say it out loud to disturb Qiao'er's judgment, mainly because she didn't want to disturb the young lady's judgment.

So he said to Qiao'er, "I don't know, so I have to keep an eye on it. Let me follow and see. You go back to Yang's house and serve the young lady. Wait for my news. Please also wait for my news."

Qiao'er also thought that this was feasible, so she nodded, let Lan Ye go, and then she took the purchased silk back to the Yang family.

……

Master Yang was silent for a long time, until the casserole began to boil, then he sighed heavily.

The water in the soup is already boiling, but it will take longer for the soup to develop its flavor.

What Xie Lingxi said was not enough for Master Yang to believe it completely, but now he seemed to have no other choice but to believe Xie Lingxi.

Because he didn't dare to gamble.

It was not only for the child, but more because he did not want to face the death of his wife. Just thinking about his wife having such a tragic ending made Master Yang feel heartbroken.

He breathed a sigh of relief, then put down the palm-leaf fan in his hand, looked at Xie Lingxi and said.

"Lingxi, can you guarantee that you can protect my wife?"

Xie Lingxi understood the hidden meaning of Master Yang's words and immediately smiled, but her tone was very sincere.

"Master Yang, no, now I have to call you uncle. Don't worry, I will definitely protect my aunt. I am not only grateful to my aunt, but after getting along with her, I think she is a very good person. I hope to be her niece forever."

Master Yang smiled helplessly.

"Okay, then I believe you. I have no other requests. Just protect my wife."

Xie Lingxi said seriously: "Uncle, don't worry, as long as you follow my plan, mother and child will be safe, you won't regret it."

Just as Master Yang opened his mouth to say something, suddenly, the housekeeper hurried into the kitchenette.

"Something happened to the master!"

The butler was always calm and composed, and it was rare for him to show such an expression. Master Yang asked nervously, "What's wrong?"

The butler glanced at Xie Lingxi, then at Master Yang, then stepped forward and whispered into Master Yang's ear.

Xie Lingxi subconsciously stopped concentrating on listening, but only vaguely heard the word "academy". Could something have happened in Qingfeng Academy?

A hint of suspicion flashed across Xie Lingxi's eyes.

However, seeing that Master Yang was still talking to the housekeeper, she didn't want to disturb him and could only wait quietly.

After a while, Master Yang heard what the housekeeper said and couldn't help but glance at Xie Lingxi. Xie Lingxi caught it and asked immediately.

"Uncle, is something wrong? Do you need my help?"

Upon hearing this, Master Yang shook his head and smiled in a relaxed manner.

"It's nothing, just a small matter. I'll take care of it. You stay at the Yang's house and talk to my wife. The soup is ready, and she should wake up."

Xie Lingxi carefully looked at Master Yang's expression and did not find any difficulty, so she nodded in agreement. Master Yang then left with the butler.

Xie Lingxi had doubts in her heart, but she didn't dare to ask any further questions. After all, trust had just been established. If Master Yang didn't believe her today, she might not even get this minimum trust. So, she should not be too proactive in other matters.

If it weren't for the fact that Madam Yang's ending in his dream was too tragic, Master Yang would not have believed him so easily.

Forget it. Time will tell. There will be plenty of opportunities to help in the future. There is no need to rush.

Thinking of this, Xie Lingxi took the initiative to step forward, picked up a palm leaf fan and fanned the casserole. The smell of chicken soup continued to waft out, and Xie Lingxi's mouth curled up...

"Miss!"

Just then, Qiaoer came in from outside.

Seeing Qiao'er, Xie Lingxi smiled.

"You arrived just in time."

Qiao'er didn't understand, but thinking of what she and Lan Ye had said, she hurried forward and told Xie Lingxi about the conversation between Ge Xinghua and Ge Guihua, and then expressed her own thoughts.

"Miss, what do you think Ge Xinghua wants to do? She finally escaped from the wolf den of the Ge family, why did she follow Ge Guihua back again?"

"From what Ge Guihua said, Ge Xinghua will be married off by the Ge family when she returns, and the family she marries into is not a good one. It's obvious that they are using Ge Xinghua to exchange for money. This is really too much! I think Ge Xinghua has a strong personality. Why did she suddenly change her mind?"
