Xue Mingyue's lips turned purple from the cold and her whole body was trembling.

The blood marks scratched by fingernails on the side of her neck were even more eye-catching after being soaked in water. She half-leaned on the maid, trembling and said: "Mommy, my cousin is someone that both my grandmother and husband care about very much, so nothing should happen to her. "

Grandma Wang didn't expect her to say such words, and her expression was slightly complicated.

Inviting imperial doctors to the left and right could provide multiple protections, so he agreed.

Xue Mingyue was wrapped in the maid's robe, and said with trembling lips: "In addition, I have one more thing to ask my grandmother. I doubt that my cousin falling into the water was an accident. There are strange stones here and it is close to my grandmother's yard. Please seal it off immediately." No one is allowed in or out of the Hou Mansion."

"You should inform Mr. Lang about the continuous incidents at home. Please send a message to Mr. Lang as soon as possible to ask him to come back."

The arrangement was very thorough, and a look of surprise flashed in Grandma Wang's eyes.

She has been with the old princess all year round, and she immediately realized that what she said meant that there might be a thief in the house. She nodded solemnly and said, "I understand, madam. Let's go to Nuang Pavilion to rest first."

Xue Mingyue nodded.

Before leaving, Grandma Wang looked at everyone with a sullen face and told everyone: "Take good care of Madam, otherwise you will be questioned when the Marquis comes back."

Naturally, everyone responded quickly.

The servants of the Hou Mansion acted quickly and quickly prepared quilts, charcoal basins, hot water and other things in the warm pavilion. Xue Mingyue generously gave up the warm couch to Bai Zhenzhen who fainted, and went to take a hot bath herself. Put on clean clothes.

Sitting on the imperial concubine's couch with a quilt on her back, drinking hot ginger syrup.

Liu Xing next to her was so uncomfortable that her eyes were red, and the hand that applied the medicine to her wound was shaking, and her voice was crying with grievance: "The injury on your neck is so serious, how big of a scar will it leave? Don't others feel sorry for it?" I feel sorry for you, slave.”

"Miss, you fell into the water when you were a child and got sick. You are afraid of water. You still risked your life to save your cousin. You are not caring about your own body. How can this doctor not come over?" Liu Yun wiped his tears.

After saying that, he applied medicine to the nail marks on her arms even more carefully.

There were many maids surrounding the little imperial concubine's couch, and they all gasped.

When I saw the large green and purple nail marks on the arm as white as jade, I felt so shocked that my heart trembled. It turned out that I didn't pinch it myself. The only person present at the time was my cousin.

This cousin's attack was a little too cruel.

Xue Mingyue herself didn't feel aggrieved, but was in a good mood, but it was a pity that she couldn't show it.

She glanced far away at the warm bed. In her previous life, she was prevented from going into the water to rescue Bai Zhenzhen because of her fear of water. However, after she was rescued ashore, she kept muttering "Don't push me", which made everything worse. Everyone thought it was her who pushed it.

Everyone in the house was hanging around Bai Zhenzhen's bed, and no one paid any attention to her, Mrs. Hou.

After that, Bai Zhenzhen went into a coma for a whole day and night, making up bad things about her in her dreams.

It wasn't until Xie Lang came back that Youyou woke up and opened her mouth: "Cousin, don't blame my sister-in-law. She didn't mean to push me away. She just doesn't like that my cousin and I have a good relationship. That's why she's unhappy."

This time she struck first. Since Bai Zhen really wanted to pretend to be dizzy, he might as well make her really dizzy.

Xue Mingyue lowered her head and took a sip of the ginger soup, and said comfortingly: "Silly girl, I'm fine. My cousin is a relative of my grandmother and husband. As long as I can save her, it doesn't matter to me."

After a pause, she gave up explaining the sweet-scented osmanthus cake for the time being.

She held Liu Yun's hand, rubbed it twice, and said softly: "Liu Yun, go to the small kitchen cabinet in our courtyard and get a ginseng root to make some light chicken soup. When your cousin wakes up, you can have a bowl of warm soup." Drink the soup to warm yourself up."

Liu Yun was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood the meaning of her words.

The sweet-scented osmanthus cake was made in the small kitchen in the courtyard, and no one else intervened during the delivery process. If something went wrong, it was either the servants in the courtyard or the people in the small kitchen. She immediately put a look on her face and said yes. He hurriedly left and returned to the yard.

Xue Mingyue then took another sip of the ginger soup.

There was a rush of footsteps outside the house.

The maid next to Grandma Wang ran in and said to Xue Mingyue: "Madam, the imperial doctor just came to treat the old lady and now she has woken up. I ordered my servant to ask you to come over and learn about the situation of falling into the water."

"Okay, I'll go right away."

Xue Mingyue was a little surprised that her grandmother woke up earlier than in her previous life. Is it because of the imperial doctor?

Thoughts briefly passed through her mind. She didn't think much, but stood up and took the palm-sized hand warmer from the maid, put on a snow-white cloak and walked towards the main house.

They arrived after walking for a while.

Walking around the screen, Xue Mingyue saw the frail old woman who was half-leaning against the bedside. She had frosty hair, and there was an indelible wind and frost between her brows and eyes, and she was taking a small mouthful. Sip the medicine given by Grandma Wang.

His eyes fell on her impartially, and he said warmly: "You are here."

Xue Mingyue's eyes felt sour inexplicably.

In her previous life, only her grandmother cared for her in the Hou family.

She took a deep breath, knelt down, saluted, and said, "My granddaughter-in-law made a mistake. Please punish her."

"We are a family. Even if you make a huge mistake, you don't have to kneel down. I've heard everything from Grandma Wang. It's not a big deal." Old Princess Cen bent her eyes helplessly and raised her eyes. After looking at Grandma Wang, she immediately put down the medicine bowl and went to help the person.

But Xue Mingyue couldn't stand it.

She looked over with firm eyes, pursed her lips and said, "My biggest mistake was to let my grandmother eat cakes with ingredients by mistake. I was careless and failed to notice. It was for nothing that my grandmother suffered such a big sin. I understand Should be punished."

After a pause, Xue Mingyue seemed to have something to say.

After a moment, he lowered his eyes and said with a wry smile: "Later, when I was arguing with my cousin by the pool, I learned that she was dissatisfied with me because she liked my husband. She thought that this was because I was jealous of my grandmother for treating her well and deliberately harmed her. I fought with her when I refused to accept it. If I get up and cause my cousin to fall into the water, I will also be punished."

"Please grandma not blame my cousin. This is all my fault."

Xue Mingyue lowered her stance.

His face was so pale that there was no blood, and the scars on the side of his neck were shocking, making him look even weaker and thinner, as if he would be scattered by the wind. No matter how hard-hearted Grandma Wang is, she can't say anything cruel.

After a while, Princess Cen sighed: "That's all, you should get up first."

"I believe this matter was not your fault. Aunt Wang and Butler Zhang will find out the person who administered the drug as soon as possible. Zhenzhen's parents were Jinglan's father's deputy generals. After their parents passed away, he raised him under my knees. , this time it is care and chaos, as my sister-in-law, you should be more considerate."

Xue Mingyue paused slightly, and the joy that had just risen in her heart was extinguished by cold water.

Yes, how could she forget it?

If you had to make a choice between her and Bai Zhenzhen, everyone in and outside the entire Hou Mansion would choose Bai Zhenzhen instead of her. This move of retreating into advancing has never been vulnerable to outright favoritism.

"But it's really unfair to do this, and I've wronged you." Princess Cen said gently.

"My cousin is angry at me this time because she loves and respects my grandmother. Although my granddaughter-in-law has just married into the family, her respect and love for her is not inferior to that of my cousin. My grandmother is in coma and I have a bad conscience, so my granddaughter-in-law wants to ask my grandmother to come again." Please give me one more chance."

"I want to catch the thief with my own hands to prove my innocence."

Xue Mingyue raised her head, her attitude was unusually tough.

Princess Cen felt a little surprised: "Don't wait until Jinglan comes back?"

Xue Mingyue shook her head and said softly: "Since I married Lang Jun, then I am the mistress of this prince's mansion. It is only my duty to deal with a few slaves. There is no need for Lang Jun to come back for everything. I support you."

Besides, it’s not certain who Xie Lang will support when he comes back.
