Xie Ruyin looked on, her eyes filled with mist. She didn't know whether it was guilt or fear. Xie Ruzhuo, on the other hand, looked calm, even though he frowned in pain, he did not say a word.
As a result, the female doctor gave Xie Ruzhuo a high look. In the past, I only saw this fourth lady being unruly and willful, but I didn't expect that she actually had such a tough side. Our ladies, you really should not be underestimated.
After Xie Ruzhuo's arm was covered with medicine, the female doctor bowed again and then left.
Seeing that the female doctor didn't look at her the whole time, Xie Ruyin secretly hated the female doctor's power in her heart, but on her face she said softly, "I'm sorry for bothering you, sister."
Xie Ruzhuo glanced at her and said, "My sister and I don't have to go out. Let's take medicine and go back to rest. If you go back late, Aunt Liu will be anxious."
This was an obvious order to expel guests, and Xie Ruyin would not fail to understand it. She nodded, bit her lower lip and said, "Then I won't bother you anymore. See you later, sister."
After sending the concubine back, Hongrui looked at Qianbi who was kneeling in the yard, pursed her lips, but still didn't say anything.
She had just been promoted as a maid by Xie Ruzhuo, and she usually served him carefully. But now that she saw the anger in her master's heart, she became even more afraid to say a word, for fear that she would make too many mistakes.
Seeing her like this, Xie Ruzhuo was very pleased with her cautiousness. It is indeed necessary to have such a mature and steady girl by your side.
"Okay, I've just been given the medicine. Find some clothes for me to change into. The tea soup also spilled on my clothes. I was not dressed appropriately, so I came back to change clothes. You move faster. I still have to go to my grandfather's place, and it's been delayed for a long time now. If I delay it any longer, I'm afraid I won't be able to speak easily when I get to Ningxiyuan."
No matter it was in his previous life or now, Xie Ruzhuo always had more respect than respect for his grandfather. In her previous life, she always felt that he could maintain the majesty of an elder in front of his children and grandchildren, and that he was neither humble nor arrogant in front of the emperor, so she was afraid of him. But after resurrecting her life, Xie Ruzhuo realized that what really impressed her about her grandfather was that he saw the situation in the court in a timely manner and did not regard himself as a hero in the royal family. Such people are people with great wisdom.
Moreover, if you want to have your own foothold in the world of Xie Mansion, this grandfather must be the one you want to please. No matter where you go or what you have to do, you can't avoid this old man.
Thinking of this, Xie Ruzhuo washed his face and soon felt refreshed again.
"Hongrui, please accompany me to my grandfather's yard. As for Qianbi, get up by yourself when the time is up." She was not really angry with Qianbi, but she still had to show off to outsiders. . After all, even if it was punishment for her own girl, she would have to thank Ruzhuo for it.
After taking care of his own yard, Xie Ruzhuo took Hongrui and arrived at his grandfather's yard soon.
After experiencing such a killing in his previous life, Xie Ruzhuo still felt a little uneasy when he saw Xie Shengli again. But after seeing Xie Shengli, she instantly calmed down. Her old man seemed to be born with a power to calm people's hearts.
The door of Ningxi Hall was open, and the old man was sitting on a stone bench. On the stone table was a pair of broken chess pieces.
It was an autumn day, and the sun was hanging high above our heads. The sunlight filtered through the leafy poplar tree and scattered mottled patterns on the chessboard. The old man sitting on the stone bench, with his gray beard wiping from time to time, has a leisurely look on his face and eyes, and he really looks like he has spent his time peacefully.
However, after Xie Ruzhuo saw the mess, he didn't think so at all.
The chessboard is dotted with chessboards, and everything is full of killing and fighting. Seeing that Bai Zi was trapped in a corner, if he tried to break out of the encirclement, he would inevitably suffer heavy casualties. But if it is in a corner, what awaits the white chess piece is the final annihilation of the entire army.
Should I risk my life to find a way out that might not lead to survival, or should I sit back and wait for death, and be eaten clean by the sunspots? No matter which situation it is, it seems that it is not ideal.
The old man touched his beard and seemed to be thinking about a way to break the situation. It's just that this game of chess has not been played for a short time. Xie Shengli still holds the chess piece in his hand and has not put it down.
"Grandpa is fine."
When he was three steps away from the stone table, Xie Ruzhuo naturally bowed.
Perhaps all his thoughts were interrupted, Xie Shengli frowned slightly when he heard Xie Ruzhuo's voice.
"Zhuo'er, are you here?"
Xie Shengli put the white piece in his hand back into the chess box and motioned to Hong Rui to help her up.
"Yes." Xie Ruzhuo said, walking to Xie Shengli's side, looking at the end of the game, as if he was frowning and thinking about something.
Seeing that she was looking at her seriously, Xie Shengli couldn't help but smile slightly and said, "Does it mean that Zhuo'er has his own opinions on this game?" But he didn't miss the light that flashed in Xie Ruzhuo's eyes.
Xie Ruzhuo didn't hesitate and took out a white piece from the chess box. The warm touch brought by the ivory chess pieces made her feel dazed for a moment. In just a moment, she returned to her senses, looked at the chessboard again, and then placed the chess pieces in a certain position under Xie Shengli's encouraging eyes.
"Okay, okay! As expected of me, Xie Shengli's granddaughter!"
The moment the chess piece fell, Xie Shengli's eyes suddenly lit up. In this way, the end game of the game was instantly opened up. Not only did Bai Zi successfully break through, but he also turned defeat into victory!
Xie Shenyan walked out of the house with tea. He had just gone to pour tea for his father, but when he came back, he saw his father clapping his hands and laughing happily. He also saw his daughter standing next to Xie Shengli, so he smiled and asked, "What did Zhuo'er do to make your grandfather so happy?"
Xie Shengli waved his hand, pointed at the chess game, and said, "Shen Yan, come and take a look."
Xie Shenyan handed the teacup in his hand to Xie Shengli, and then looked at the original endgame. But at this glance, he was stunned. He looked at Xie Ruzhuo in disbelief and said, "Zhuo'er, is this the chess piece you made?"
Xie Ruzhuo nodded and said a little shyly, "I made a mistake randomly, dad don't blame me."
"How could he blame you? Zhuo'er is so good at saving everything!" Xie Shengli took a sip of tea, his words full of pride for his granddaughter.
After hearing this, Xie Shenyan immediately laughed and said, "Dad, don't praise her, otherwise this ghost girl will be so proud that she goes to heaven again!"
Xie Ruzhuo refused, "Dad will make fun of me, but my daughter won't listen to you!"
After saying a few words, Xie Shengli became even happier.
Several people laughed for a while, and then Xie Shengli said, "Girl Zhuo, why did you remember that you are here at this time, but do you have any business with me?"
Hearing this, Xie Ruzhuo stopped smiling and said sincerely, "I'm sorry, grandfather, not long ago, my granddaughter broke the set of tea cups. I heard that the set of tea cups was very valuable, and my grandfather also liked it very much, so I Come and apologize to my grandfather. I hope, I hope my grandfather won’t take the blame.”
While speaking, Xie Ruzhuo's eyes did not dodge, and he looked at the older man in front of him with respect. Her apology was indeed sincere. You know, Xie Shengli went through a lot of troubles for this set of porcelain. Now that I am broken, it would be a lie to say that I don’t feel guilty.
Xie Shengli waved his hand and said lovingly, "Money is an external possession, let alone just a set of tea cups. Is it more important than you? Or do you think your grandfather is such an unreasonable person?"
The distance between his Ningxi Courtyard and this little girl's Tingfeng Courtyard was not far away, and it was so noisy there that he knew what was going on. Moreover, even if Xie Ruzhuo didn't say anything, the things in this mansion would not escape his eyes. As for this matter, whose problem it is, how could I not know it? In this case, the person who made the mistake disappeared, and instead came to make it difficult for her to come to this courtyard to apologize. However, after this incident, I can easily see that this girl is really much calmer compared to her previous temperament.
Thinking about it, Xie Shengli couldn't help stroking his beard again, and his outlook on the girl in front of him changed a bit.
Seeing what Xie Shengli said, Xie Ruzhuo couldn't help but reveal a coquettish smile, half coquettishly and half seriously, "Thank you, grandfather, for being generous and not being angry with your granddaughter, but your granddaughter cannot ignore her mistakes. At this moment, her granddaughter is practicing calligraphy. , I will write something for you when my grandfather celebrates his birthday. If he doesn't write well, he will be punished twice."
Why didn't Xie Shengli know that she was deliberately trying to make him happy, so he nodded her forehead and said with a smile, "This is a good idea. You must not default on the bill then."
"How dare my granddaughter lie in front of you? Wouldn't that be audacious?" Xie Ruzhuo stuck out his tongue, becoming more and more like a child.
"Haha, that's right."
The matter was revealed just like that, but Xie Shenyan remembered Xie Ruzhuo's injuries and asked, "Yes, how are Zhuo'er's injuries? What did the female doctor say?"
Xie Ruzhuo smiled and replied, "Don't worry, Dad, my daughter is fine."
Hearing this, Xie Shengli nodded and said, "That's what I say, you still have to take good care of yourself. Your daughter is fragile and it will be bad if she gets the root cause of the disease." He had also heard about the situation that day, and he was really frightened. . But later, when he learned that the emperor actually gave the Western Region Snow Lotus to Xie Ruzhuo, his heart skipped a beat. He knew very well what the Western Region Snow Lotus was and what its effects were! Now that the Holy One is doing this, doesn’t he have some other purpose
Seeing that Xie Ruzhuo responded one by one, Xie Shenyan also said, "Father, don't worry too much, Wan'er will take these things to heart, and your granddaughter will definitely not be wronged."
Hearing Xie Shenyan mention the Qiao family, Xie Shengli said, "That's right, your wife has always been a steady one."
Seeing the two of them talking, Xie Ruzhuo just smiled beside him, but he didn't expect Xie Shenyan to bring the topic to Xie Ruzhuo again.
"Zhuo'er, can you tell my father that you are usually timid, but how did you have the courage to block the third prince's arrow that day?"
Hearing Xie Shenyan's question, Xie Ruzhuo's expression froze. She couldn't say that she hadn't realized her rebirth at that time. She thought she and Xiao Junxi had escaped, but they were hunted down by Shen Jingci again. In order to survive, , so you saved Xiao Junxi, right
Not to mention how ridiculous this statement is, would Xie Shenyan think she was stupid if she said it. Even if Xie Shenyan believed it, she couldn't say it. After all, these words are too unbelievable. If someone with a heart hears them, they will slander national affairs!
Therefore, Xie Ruzhuo only smiled slightly and said, "To tell my father, the situation at that time was very dangerous, and it was surrounded by forests. Only my daughter was closest to the third prince. If I knew that things might turn around, my daughter did not come forward to save him. , and if something goes wrong with the third prince, the Xie family will definitely be angered by the emperor. The so-called emperor's anger is so powerful that it is for the Xie family, and the daughter cannot leave the prince's safety alone, she can only put her own life and death aside. .”
