That figure was lonely, as if it was on the verge of falling, but he still stood upright, as if standing quietly on the edge of a steep cliff, his deep eyes looked over quietly, and fell on the hands that Xu Changfeng and I were clasping.

"He Lang." That gaze seemed calm, but it pierced bloody heart with the iron knife. I have never felt that the palm of my hand was so hot, and when I was about to pull it back, I found that the palm that grabbed me was secretly tightening.

Xu Changfeng was still as steady as Mount Tai, and before I could speak, he said to Xu Qihe in front of him: "Third brother, you are unwell, you'd better not stand in the hall, lest you catch cold again." When he said this, his tone was calm, In normal times, it would be an ordinary greeting between brothers. However, I am afraid that no one here knows better than me that Xu Qihe hates others to mention his illness, even if it comes out of concern, it is extremely harsh to him.

I saw his chest rising and falling, his hands hidden behind his back were clenched tightly, and his nails were almost embedded in the flesh. His face was as cold as frost, his pale lips moved slightly, and he said word by word: "Today, my younger brother thanked my elder brother and took care of Zhuo Jing on my behalf." Then, he turned to me, as if he had a mouthful of blood in his mouth, and said in a cold voice :"come over."

I was afraid that he would be really angry, and no matter how difficult he felt, he could only forcibly pull his hand out of that wide palm. But we took a few steps, but our arm was pulled by the person behind us.

Xu Changfeng held my arm, his face was still peaceful, but his tone was a bit cold: "Third brother, we have to behave." He looked at me, I shook my head lightly, Xu Changfeng's eyes darkened, after all Still bear it down, and said in a deep voice, "... I took him out privately, so don't make things difficult for him."

Finally, he let go.

I hurried over quickly, and when I was about to support Xu Qihe, he slammed my hand away: "Don't touch me!" I was taken aback by his yelling, and whispered: "Helang...?"

Xu Qihe stared at the front with red eyes, and said sharply: "Xu Changfeng, why are you? You... just an ordinary person! Do you think, you think that you can compare us with those dirty tricks you use with all your efforts? You are trying to find another way, in the eyes of others, you are Commander Xu, General Xu, but so what? You have military merits, everyone respects you, but so what?" He smiled grimly, " In my eyes, you are just a coward—a coward who can't even keep his own wife!"

Xu Changfeng's face changed suddenly, and he said coldly: "Third brother, you are not in good health. As the eldest brother, I will let you in everywhere. But don't think that if you give you three points of color, you can open a dyeing workshop."

"Stop it!" I hugged Xu Qihe and shouted, "Stop it!"

But Xu Qihe broke away from me, his face was livid, and he said unrelentingly: "Yes...! I am going to die sooner or later, of course you have to let me! Brother, in that case, you might as well give him to me, don't talk to me In this short-lived struggle, it doesn't matter if you give up one and give the other to your brother!"

"You—" Xu Chang turned his eyes sideways, and striding forward, he really wanted to come over and grab Xu Qihe. Manager Zhang rushed over first, and hurriedly shouted: "What are you doing! Hurry up and stop the two masters!"

I was pushed by those servants, staggered back a few steps, sat down on the ground, knocked my elbow, and couldn't help screaming in pain.

"Three joys!" When Xu Changfeng saw it, he left the others behind and came over to help me up from the ground. "Are you okay?" He took my hand and wanted to roll down my sleeves to have a look, I hurriedly shook my head: "It's okay, I'm okay—"

"Third young master!" I heard the servant exclaim, and looked up.

Xu Qihe sat back on the chair, pressed his hands on his chest, and coughed heart-piercingly. "Helang...!" I walked over quickly, and bent down in front of him, only to see that his face was purple, and he raised his eyes to look at me, and with a "uh", bright red blood overflowed from the corner of his mouth...

"He vomited blood!" Someone yelled.

I stared at him with wide eyes, but Xu Qihe closed his eyes deeply as if he didn't want to see me again, and passed away in front of my eyes.

"Helang, Helang, don't scare me..." I murmured softly, but he had passed out.

At this time, someone pushed me away forcefully. "Helang!" Mrs. Jiang rushed over after hearing the letter, never expecting that her son would vomit blood, and immediately cried anxiously: "My Helang... come here! Go and call the doctor! Go! ah!"

Everyone is in a hurry, but I can't do anything, I can only watch the servants carry Xu Qihe into the house. Xu Changfeng helped me up, Jiang's hysterical crying came from the room, and not long after, the owners of other rooms rushed over.

After all, this farce will not end so easily.

In the middle of the night, the lobby of the Xu Mansion was brightly lit.

Mr. Xu was not in the mansion, so he saw that Mrs. Yu, the eldest lady of the Xu mansion, was sitting in the first seat, and below them were the two wives of the second and third rooms. All parties brought servants and two or three servants, and they blocked the huge hall to the brim.

I knelt in the middle, bowed my head, and said nothing.

Just now, the Zhang court judge of the Taiyuan Hospital sent someone to ask Concubine Xu Gui for instructions, and he came all the way from the palace to invite her. He had already treated Xu Qihe, and before he left, he only gave us one sentence: "This time, the old man saved the third young master's life. Next time, if he gets angry again, even a genius doctor will not be able to save him." .”

In this way, until now, I have knelt for two hours.

Everyone in the hall didn't make a sound, only Jiang Shi was sobbing and choking, as if she wanted to shed all the tears in her life. Mrs. Xie was still sitting dignifiedly, since Xu Yanqing went to the south, she rarely showed up, she did not expect to stand up because of this matter. Just look, Mrs. Yu looked at me with a serious expression after listening to the ins and outs of Mr. Zhang, and said coldly: "At first, I thought that you were in charge, but I didn't expect that you would be so ignorant."

When I heard it, I bent my back deeply, kowtowed and said, "Jing Ting knows his mistake."

"Know your mistake?" Jiang raised her voice suddenly, "You know your mistake now, what's the use of it! Shen Jingting, I treated you well with my son! Is this how you repay me? Is this how you repay Helang? Ah ? Is it possible that you are so hard-hearted that you want to make my son vomit blood in anger!"

Jiang's words only made me feel ashamed, and I couldn't say a word of rebuttal.

Mrs. Xie looked at her, sighed, and said: "Sister, Jing Ting must not want to be like this now." Mrs. Jiang wiped her tears and snorted coldly, ignoring her affection at all.

Mrs. Yu glanced at Mrs. Jiang and said, "Huayang, it's true that Jingting was wrong, but as the mistress, I still want to speak a word of justice for him." She put down her glass slowly, "There is a sentence that is That is to say, there is no rule without rules. This rule is certainly not dead, but it is not easy to change it. Originally, it was a rule handed down from ancient times that the wives take turns between the husband and the husband. Now that Yanqing is not in the mansion, it stands to reason , Jingting should have gone to Changfeng by now."

She widened her eyes and said with a half-smile: "If you want me to say, Jing Ting's fault is that he made his own decisions. When it was time for that husband, but he was not there, he was biased and unfair. That's what caused the discord between the husband and the lord!"

Yu Shi's words sounded like they were helping me, but they actually charged me with a huge crime. Since ancient times, it has been required that the wife of the wife should treat every husband equally, and there must be no partiality, otherwise it will cause a catastrophe of restlessness in the family. In this way, not only to be blamed, but also to be served by the family law. Mrs. Yu has been complaining about me since my fake pregnancy last time, and this time she plans to settle with me.

I watched Xu Qihe vomit blood in front of my eyes, and I felt so uncomfortable for a long time, so I didn't care how she punished me, and just said dumbly: "Jingting... Willing to be punished."

"Young master, young master, don't—"

The young masters are not allowed to be present in the inner house dispute. But Xu Changfeng rushed in directly, and he pushed all the servants blocking the way to the ground. He walked to my side, looked at the three ladies present, then lifted his hem and knelt down on his knees.

"Changfeng, you—" Yu's eyes widened.

As the saying goes, a man has gold at his knees, and Xu Changfeng has an official position. He talks about not being a monarch and his parents would not kneel, but now he bows to Jiang: "As the eldest brother, Changfeng knows that the third brother is weak and cannot be angered, but he still commits unspeakable crimes." It's a crime of brotherhood. And this act made the third wife angry, which is unfilial. The wife is shared by brothers, but if the husband is sick, the wife should sacrifice her life to take care of her. Changfeng knew this and insisted on taking people out on a trip. And causing restlessness in the house is for disharmony.”

I called him in a low voice: "... official?"

Xu Changfeng ignored me, and only said to the three wives: "Changfeng is willing to be punished, but I hope the wives are sensible, and don't care about Shen's fault."

Yu's face hated that iron could not be made into steel, and pointed at him: "Changfeng, do you know what nonsense you are talking about!"

Jiang Shi sneered, she was feeling depressed now, and it was not unreasonable, she just had to give Xu Qihe a bad breath. She thought she couldn't touch the person in the big house, but she didn't expect Xu Changfeng to plead guilty by himself, so he naturally hit the mark: "Okay, okay... That's very well said! Someone—"

She was about to invite the family law to come, but the Yu family was so angry that she said: "You dare to touch Xu's eldest son, don't blame me for being rude!"

"Sister, what a good word!" Jiang Shi, as the princess, has always been a temper tantrum.

She pointed at Mrs. Yu, completely forgetting her scruples, and said sadly, "Sister, I'll call you sister! What about you—you have a vicious heart! Because the master doted on me, you secretly drugged me to make me infertile for three years. The He Lang who caused me was born with a lot of diseases, and he almost couldn't raise him! Now your son and the daughter-in-law you chose are deliberately trying to piss off my He Lang, you all have vicious hearts!"

"Third sister, what are you talking nonsense about?!" Mrs. Xie couldn't bear it any longer, and reprimanded her loudly.

"I'm talking nonsense, heh—" Mrs. Jiang turned to Mrs. Xie, "The one lying inside is not your own son, of course you are not in a hurry. Today, if it were you, I don't believe it. You can swallow this Tone!"

Mrs. Xie was so blocked that she couldn't say a word, Mrs. Yu was already extremely angry, but she still held back and said: "Huayang, for the sake of the master, I will not cure you for the time being today. If you spray blood on people again , but don't blame me."

Jiang Shi was about to refute, when suddenly someone ran in and said, "Master is back—"

The foreign envoys are being entertained in the palace today, and Xu Shangshu will not come back so soon. I looked at Xu Changfeng, and saw that his eyes were clear, unlike other people who were shocked, he understood.

Now, Mrs. Xie stood up and said with an unbearable look: "It's done, the master is back, let the master make the decision. I'm tired, so I won't accompany a few people."
