Chapter 316: Not a Passerby, Full of Thorns
"He'er, don't say anything first." The old lady responded softly, turned around and ordered Qingluo, "Pour a glass of warm water."
"Yes, old lady."
The old lady took the warm water and gently put a few spoonfuls of water into the corners of Ji Chuhe's lips with a small spoon.
With the nourishment of water, Ji Chuhe suddenly felt the burning sensation in his chest alleviated a lot.
"Don't worry, your grandmother is here at the Prince's Mansion. You just need to take good care of yourself now."
"You'er...child, is Aunt Dong's child okay?" Ji Chuhe asked with concern.
"It's okay. It's being raised by Aunt Dong. She brought it to me this morning to see." The old lady responded gently.
"That's good." Ji Chuhe secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "Where's Aunt Xu? And that Liu Ying is still alive, right?"
"Look at you. I told you to take good care of yourself, but you're still worrying about these things! You know what kind of danger you went through. You almost lost your life."
"Grandmother, even though it was Aunt Xu who did the thing to me, she was also bewitched by someone. Perhaps someone gave her some kind of drug that caused her mental state to become a little disturbed..."
"Okay, He'er, listen to grandma. We'll deal with other things after you recover from your injuries."
"Okay." Ji Chuhe nodded.
……
A mourning hall was set up in Xu Yan'er's yard.
According to the old lady's wishes, Xu Yan'er was dragged out and buried somewhere randomly.
Xiao Yan'an disagreed, so she didn't insist.
Anyway, the person is already dead, so let Xiao Yanan decide how to handle the funeral.
In the mourning hall, Xiao Yanan was the only one there.
Tianxi was waiting outside the yard.
He didn't even want to pay homage to the man who almost killed his mistress.
He couldn't guess what the prince was thinking.
At that time, when the lady was stabbed by Xu Yan'er, the prince also wanted to kill Xu Yan'er.
If Xu Yan'er really died, the prince would be so sad.
If Xu Yan'er hadn't done such a thing, how could she have killed herself!
She can only blame herself for this!
Liao Yunfei walked slowly towards us in plain clothes.
When Tianxi saw Liao Yunfei, his face suddenly became even uglier.
However, due to his status, he still stepped forward and saluted respectfully.
"I'm here to see Aunt Xu off." Liao Yunfei said, and walked towards the mourning hall.
Xiao Yanan heard the footsteps and shouted without turning his head, "Didn't I tell anyone not to disturb me?"
"Sir, I want to see Aunt Xu off. I'll burn a stick of incense for her and leave right away."
Xiao Yan'an turned his head and looked at Liao Yunfei, his expression becoming even gloomier.
Liao Yunfei didn't say anything else. She walked forward, lit the incense, and put it in the incense burner on the table.
Then, without any delay, he turned and left.
When he reached the door, he stopped.
"Sir, I came to pay tribute to Aunt Xu today because I feel the same way about her. I understand her pain of falling in love with someone, and I also understand why she tried her best to tell you that she loved you before she died. May Aunt Xu rest in peace."
Xiao Yan'an looked at the coffin in front of him, and the scene of him and Xu Yan'er couldn't help but emerge in his mind.
Even many scenes that he had forgotten became extremely clear.
Why are there so many intrigues and calculations in this world!
Why can't you live the life you want!
Why can’t I be my truest self?
why?
Xiao Yanan collapsed on the ground helplessly.
"Yan'er, you want to go back to Huaiyang, right? I'll take you back to Huaiyang."
……
It has been two hours since Ji Chuhe woke up.
After drinking some soup, I regained my strength and looked much more energetic.
She also persuaded the old lady of the Duke's Mansion to return to the Duke's Mansion.
She is no longer in danger of death. From now on, there will be no problem as long as she is well taken care of. We can't let the old lady, who is so old, always take care of herself here.
Several ladies from the Duke's Mansion also wanted to visit her, but they were all turned away by the old lady.
The three Rong sisters, Qingqing and Rong Qingqing, cried so hard that their eyes were swollen when they heard that their sister-in-law almost lost her life.
Ji Chuhe lay on the bed, not feeling sleepy at all.
"Aunt Qingluo." She called softly.
"Madam, I'm here." Qingluo immediately walked to the bedside.
"Tell me, has Aunt Xu been punished?"
"Ma'am, didn't the old lady also tell you not to worry about this matter for now? Wait until you recover from your injury."
"If you could wait until my injury heals before treating me, I would have already woken up for two hours, and I wouldn't be unable to see the prince."
"Madam, you know that the prince was seriously injured when he broke into the forbidden palace to invite Doctor Zhong. The prince is recovering from his injuries now."
"Don't lie to me. Tell me the truth. After all, there are still many things waiting for me to deal with. I always want to know how you deal with Xu Yan'er."
Qingluo realized that she couldn't hide it anymore, so she told the whole story.
"Xu Yan'er was beaten to death!" Ji Chuhe was surprised, "Didn't you interrogate Liu Ying?"
"Madam, Aunt Xu has made an irreparable mistake! Even if she was bewitched and used by others, even if she was drugged, it was only because she had the idea that others could drive her! She wanted to kill the mistress but she didn't dare to, which is no different from her being bewitched and assassinating the mistress! She died, and she deserved it."
"No family would tolerate such a concubine to live."
Ji Chuhe took a deep breath, and felt a sharp pain in the wound. Her face turned pale instantly.
"Madam, even if you don't want to kill Aunt Xu, the princess won't let her stay! You gave her a chance, but she didn't know how to seize it. Who can lead her all the time? Besides, it's impossible to lead her!"
Ji Chuhe knew that this would be the result.
"Madam, you must take good care of yourself." Qingluo looked at Ji Chuhe worriedly.
"I'm fine. Since it has been dealt with, let's leave it at that."
The person is dead, and there is no point in saying anything else.
There were some things that she could only keep in her heart.
She wanted to save Xu Yan'er's life.
This life is saved for Xiao Yanan.
Xiao Yan'an is a kind and gentle person at heart. He doesn't like plundering and scheming, and he has a soft heart. Even though Xiao Jincheng put a knife to his neck, he still wanted to leave the other party a way out.
What's more, this was Xu Yan'er, whom he had loved, spoiled, and been crazy about.
If Xu Yan'er had continued to live, perhaps they would have ended up going in opposite directions and reached a point of no return.
But things are different now that Xu Yan'er is dead.
Ji Chuhe understood more deeply that she and Xiao Yanan had never been the same kind of people.
The path he was born to walk on is full of flowers.
And her path was full of thorns.
What she is best at is all kinds of calculations.
When she was a child, she was calculating how to survive Geng's sinister and vicious tactics. After marrying Shen Chengjing, she had to calculate how to live a better life.
Even though she was reborn, she was still like this and never stopped calculating.
If she hadn't made her plans, she might not be far from death.
