The Beloved in the Palm

Chapter 41 Miss Xue is bragging?

Everyone in Xue Qingyin was dumbfounded.

Is it really related to me?

He Songning looked back at Xue Qingyin, and then asked: "Did you see clearly who asked?"

"No, no, but if I see it again, I can recognize the voice."

He Songning stopped talking.

He is not yet powerful enough to gather all the noble ladies in the capital together and let him catch the perpetrator.

Xue Qingyin frowned thoughtfully and asked, "Of course you didn't see who recommended it?"

Qiu Xin said weakly: "Yes."

Xue Qingyin rubbed her forehead, feeling extremely annoyed.

At this time, the maid outside the door said again: "Madam is here."

Qiu Xin's face turned pale with fright, and she instinctively curled up, wishing she could hide in the hole.

He Songning's eyelids twitched and he felt bad.

With a "bang" sound, Mrs. Xue pushed the door open. The noise was even worse than when He Songning opened the door before.

Mrs. Xue glared at He Songning angrily: "I knew you were here in Qingyin!"

Before He Songning could say anything to defend her, Mrs. Xue walked up to Qiu Xin and sneered: "Something happened to the second girl? What did you do here?"

Qiu Xin murmured: "I, I will come to see the eldest son."

"Aren't you going to guard your girl?"

"Here, I'll go back and guard now."

After Qiu Xin finished speaking, she quickly kowtowed and ran away.

Mrs. Xue cursed: "What kind of slave? You don't have any rules, you only know how to stir up troubles! You really should be sent out of the house someday!"

He Songning was also a little fed up with Qiu Xin's various ways, and for the first time he and Mrs. Xue reached a consensus.

Mrs. Xue turned to look at him at this time and said, "I thought you wanted to speak for her."

He Songning said: "She's just a servant, not to mention she's clumsy and annoying. Don't get angry, lest it ruin your body."

Mrs. Xue snorted coldly: "What are you doing here with your sister? Seeking justice for Xue Qinghe?"

He Songning had completely calmed down now. He whispered: "What kind of justice are you asking for? It's not the person Qing Yin pushed."

"That's good if you know! Then what are you doing here?"

"I heard that Qingyin was feeling unwell and took a step ahead, so I came over to see what was going on."

Xue Qingyin said to her heart that you are really good at pretending!

Mrs. Xue looked at He Songning with disbelief, then at Xue Qingyin, and said, "Why is your hair still wet?"

Xue Qingyin secretly glared at He Songning.

Of course it's because of him.

However, he still said obediently: "I just talk and don't care about anything else."

Mrs. Xue glared at her angrily and said, "Okay, rest early."

Now that she saw that there was no conflict between the siblings, she was relieved.

Mrs. Xue turned around and walked out. Halfway there, she paused, then turned back and added: "I asked someone to send some ginseng soup. Although I don't like her, I won't intentionally kill her."

Mrs. Xue pursed her lips, with a sharp curve at the corner of her lips: "People in our family have never been so cruel that if they hate someone, they will kill her!"

A complicated light flashed across He Songning's eyes.

Xue Qinghe's mother did indeed do something wrong.

Everything started because of her...

She harmed Mrs. Xue and Xue Qingyin, as well as her own daughter.

"Auntie is leaving. Brother, let's go too." Xue Qingyin urged.

He Songning turned around, picked up the soft handkerchief hanging on the shelf beside him, walked behind Xue Qingyin, grabbed her long hair, lowered his head and wiped it.

Xue Qingyin's hair stood on end for a moment.

What's wrong with you?

What kind of disease is this?

He Songning said nothing and only wiped Xue Qingyin's hair.

Xue Qingyin sat there stiffly for a while, feeling really unbearable. After much deliberation, she couldn't persuade He Songning to leave anyway, so she simply broke the pot and said: "Wait a minute."

He Songning lowered his eyes and looked at her.

Xue Qingyin kicked off her shoes and lay down on the soft couch beside her, resting her head on the edge of the soft couch.

"Okay, go ahead and wipe it."

He Songning was speechless.

Feelings are tired of sitting.

But looking at it this way, Xue Qingyin is not as stingy as before.

He Songning wiped it for who knows how long.

Xue Qingyin fell asleep and closed her eyes unconsciously.

No one spoke for a moment, and He Songning naturally lowered his gaze.

He caught a glimpse of Xue Qingyin's soft neck, beautiful collarbone, and the traces of bruises on her shoulders.

He Songning paused and then looked away.

When He Songning opened the door and went out, Xue Qingyin was already sleeping soundly.

The maids and ladies then quietly returned to the room and dried Xue Qingyin's hair for a while.

Bake until there is no moisture left.

He Songning stood at the door and glanced twice, then asked in a low voice: "Is it always so troublesome?"

The maid said: "Yes. But if you don't be careful, it won't do. Girls are prone to getting sick. Once you get sick, you won't be cured in three to five days. The eldest son went out of town a few days ago, and the eldest lady's room was thick with... The smell of medicine is everywhere.”

He Songning: "... Got it."

After leaving, He Songning went to visit Xue Qinghe.

Qiu Xin was holding a handkerchief to apply to her head.

The medicine bowl was placed aside, exuding an unpleasant medicinal smell...

Xue Qinghe sat up and saw him looking at the medicine bowl, so he couldn't help but said: "It's not very bitter."

According to the previous style, He Songning would say, how can it not be bitter?

But today he said "yes".

He Songning didn't know what to say... because he just realized that Xue Qingyin had taken much more medicine.

He Songning's voice immediately silenced the room.

Xue Qinghe suddenly felt that... the distance between him and her seemed to have been stretched away overnight.

"You need to rest well first. When we have a banquet in a while, Qiu Xin identifies the person who did it. I will avenge you."

Xue Qinghe smiled.

It turns out it was all an illusion... The eldest brother still has her in his heart.

The maid next to Xue Qingyin also sighed: "The eldest son is still kind to the girl. Look, this hair was dried by the eldest son patiently while sitting there."

Fortunately, Xue Qingyin fell asleep, otherwise Gao Lu would have stood up and retorted.

Xue Qinghe's injury, apart from making He Songning angry in front of Xue Qingyin, did not cause any big disturbance in the house.

Xue Qingyin was very unhappy. I was the only one who was hurt, right?

The next day, she simply thought of going to Zhuangzi to relax.

As soon as she went out, she bumped into someone who came to report the news in a hurry.

"The Silk Satin Mansion... The Silk Satin Mansion is on fire... there are several members of the old Liu family inside! We even got into a fight with people from Duke Zhao's Mansion!"

The visitor was out of breath and asked to see He Songning.

Xue Qingyin's scalp felt numb.

On fire?

Could it be the work of Duke Zhao's government? Does this mean that He Songning acted too ruthlessly and called for revenge?

After all, it’s human life!

"Take me there first!" Xue Qingyin said hurriedly.

The visitor was surprised and a little hesitant: "The eldest lady is going alone..."

Xue Qingyin grabbed Muli with one hand and put it on her head. She nodded and said, "Yes, I can do it alone!"

"The people from Duke Zhao's Mansion..."

"When they saw me, they had to kneel down and kowtow to me!"

The visitor did not dare to linger any longer for fear of missing the opportunity to save people, so he had to lead the way in a hurry, taking Xue Qingyin first.

He sighed secretly in his heart.

I just hope the older girl isn’t bragging!
