After the violent wolf lord was reborn, he became sickly!

Chapter 17 "You have to repay the favor."

I thought that if she honestly handed over the power of managing the budget, she would behave herself, but I didn't expect that it would still be the same.

Madam Xian felt a little sour at first, but then she curled her lips in joy when she thought that most of the Xiao family was now in her hands.

"Sister-in-law, Jingshan and I mean well. We're afraid that you'll be saddened by the scene here. You've been staying indoors for some time, and we've seen it with our own eyes, and we've been thinking about you too. The house on East Street is quiet, with beautiful flowers and trees, and our ancestors have also seen it, and it's really suitable for resting the mind." Madam Xian continued to persuade.

Of course, she didn't really want to take Yang Qingwan away, but she was eyeing the generous dowries of Xiao Linglang's girls. She always thought that the Xiao family was wealthy and powerful, but she didn't expect that the eldest brother had so much private property here.

After the gift was brought over, her eyes rolled. The eldest son had no son, so how could he let someone else take it?

She went to the ancestor and made some metaphors, but unexpectedly, the ancestor shared the same idea as hers and adopted a son for the first wife.

Xiao Linglang understood the deeper meaning behind Madam Xian's words, and clenched her hands into fists beneath her sleeves.

They actually wanted to drive my mother out of the Xiao Mansion.

Xiao Linglang glanced at Yang Qingwan, who looked calm, and the anger in her chest subsided a little bit.

She calmed herself down, raised her eyes, and gently interrupted Madam Xian who was about to say something.

"Aunt really loves my mother. My mother has been really worried and sad lately."

"I'll tell you what I mean. This scene really breaks my heart. How could my elder brother leave so suddenly?" Madam Xian wiped her nonexistent tears with a handkerchief. "He didn't even leave a descendant."

"Well, that's because my two younger sisters are pregnant, and I'm worried about how to raise the children better." Yang Qingwan suddenly raised her eyes and looked directly at the old woman sitting in the main seat, interrupting Madam Xian and covering her voice.

"What!?" Madam Xian jumped up from her chair in surprise, wondering if she had been misled.

The old man sitting in the main seat also moved his cloudy eyes and looked straight at Yang Qingwan.

"Mother, the second and third aunts are pregnant." Xiao Linglang's eyes flashed with joy. She understood the benefits of the two aunts being pregnant at this time.

"Well, your third aunt is just three months old. She had an unstable fetus before, so I didn't tell you sisters because I was afraid that you would offend your aunt. But your second aunt is a surprise. She gave birth to a pearl, and it's already two months old. What a coincidence. It seems that seeing the doctor before was effective." Yang Qingwan showed joy to Xiao Linglang, patting her hands and speaking softly.

Xiao Jingyuan had few children. Yang Qingwan's eldest son died young, and his only daughter, Xiao Linglang, almost died. His two concubines each had a child, one seventeen years old and the other only six years old.

Yang Qingwan turned her head and wiped away her sad tears, and said to the old man sitting there: "I've asked the doctor to check it out. The third aunt is pregnant with a boy. Jingyuan will have someone to carry on his legacy."

The old man almost couldn't sit still, staring at Yang Qingwan excitedly, "Ms. Yang, are you sure?"

"Sure. We've asked several doctors to take a look. If Dad has any questions, you can ask the doctor to come over and take another look." Yang Qingwan winked at Xiao Linglang.

Xiao Linglang immediately understood, smiled, and volunteered, "Grandpa, Linglang will go get the doctor right away."

Mr. Xiao wanted to nod, but when he thought of the previous unstable fetus and saw how confident the first wife was, he waved his hand, acted like he was concerned, and asked Yang Qingwan to take good care of the two concubines.

Xiao Linglang interrupted and said seriously, "Grandpa, my mother has been taking care of the two aunts for many days, and she is too worried about the death of my father. She is exhausted now. I want to volunteer, but I know it's rash. Can I let my aunt take care of the two aunts?"

She tilted her head and smiled at the frightened Madam Xian, "Linglang is begging Second Aunt here. Second Aunt is very capable and will definitely take good care of the two concubines. Otherwise, Grandpa would not have let Second Aunt take over the management of the household. Linglang and sister would like to thank Second Aunt in advance."

Xiao Yuanzhi, who had been silent the whole time, curled her lips, understanding what her stepmother and sister meant. She immediately stepped forward to help out and deliberately compete for their favor.

"Now that Second Aunt is in charge of the household, her ability must have surpassed the old ancestors. My father passed away in a hurry, and my mother has been suffering from headaches recently due to worry. Yuanzhi and Linglang are unable to take care of the affairs of the first house, so I hope Second Aunt can help."

The two sisters sang the same tune, and Madam Xian's face turned green. She had a child by chance, and they wanted her to be the gatekeeper. Was she sick?

She looked at Master Xiao, and she didn't expect that Master Xiao was convinced by the sisters' nonsense and agreed!

Madam Xian now had to swallow her anger. Not only did she lose her madam, she also had to pay for the soldiers and move into a house on East Street.

She gritted her teeth and followed Master Xiao, glaring at the back of his head hatefully. She didn't expect that the old man was still thinking about his eldest son.

After the crowd of people in the courtyard left, Xiao Linglang pinched her fingertips and stepped forward hesitantly, "Mother, are you really going to East Street?"

Yang Qingwan sat still in the chair, "It's good to relax, Yuanzhi, just come with me and stay for a few days."

Xiao Yuanzhi glanced at Xiao Linglang, whose lips were bent, and said, "Okay, mother, then Linglang..."

Yang Qingwan glanced at the injured girl and her expression returned to normal. "Be steady."

Xiao Linglang's heart ached when she heard that. She pulled Xiao Yuanzhi's sleeve and smiled gently, "Mother is right. I won't go to cause trouble to sister and mother. Otherwise, if I go, sister will not only have to take care of mother, but also have to take time to see me."

Xiao Yuanzhi held Xiao Linglang's hand and nodded softly.

Xiao Linglang looked at the warm hand resting on her back, and her nose felt sore again.

After a quick meal, we returned to Wangshu Garden.

"You're crying again. Why didn't you cry so much before?" Tuoba Jin leaned against the pillar, looked at the person who was approaching him while wiping his tears, and stood up straight.

"Why are you here again?"

Tuoba Jin looked at the little girl standing not far away. His fingertips felt itchy and he wanted to grasp in his palm the strand of her black hair that was blown by the wind.

This time he didn't ask her why she was in a bad mood, but said: "Someone has made the young lady unhappy, Chi Nu can help the young lady get rid of her."

"How dare you instigate the young lady to do something improper?" Chanxin stood between them with a frown, glaring at Tuoba Jin.

Tuoba Jin ignored her and stared at the person behind her, waiting for her answer.

Xiao Linglang raised her head, tears still on her eyelashes, her eyes flickered, cunning and bright.

"You have to repay me."

"Yeah." The man's voice had a hint of laziness.

Xiao Linglang thought of Madam Xian, who actually wanted to drive her mother out of the Xiao Mansion. She clenched her fists, her eyes became fierce, and her voice rose at the end, "Then I'm going to teach her a lesson."

"Ah."

Zenxin was stunned.

? ? ? !

How could this man instigate the young lady like this?

------

Tuoba Jin thought that the lesson was to kill all those who bullied her, and was about to wave for help.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Linglang took him in an unconventional way.

Xiao Linglang solemnly handed Tuoba Jin a packet of medicine and carefully instructed him, "Go to the west courtyard and pour it into Second Aunt's food, and then we will both be even."

She was the best at jumping around, but Xiao Linglang didn't expect Tuoba Jin to do anything big for her. After all, he was beaten half to death when he went to settle accounts with his enemies.

Tuoba Jin looked at the medicine bag in his hand, wondering what kind of poison was so powerful that it could be effective just by doing this.

He tossed it in his hand. If the paper wasn't heavy, the medicine bag would have been blown away by the wind.
