The Lady's Code for Raising Her Husband

Hu Yanmu was in a bad mood, so he reluctantly smiled at Mrs. Zuo Shanggong and held her hand.

While the couple was fighting for responsibility, Ye Yuxiao's thoughts drifted away: "A maid came to look for Zhuo Qiao, but the lotus that Zhuo Qiao stole was nowhere to be found. Does this mean that the lotus Bai probably asked her to be handed over to that maid?"

Huyanmu and Yugu both agreed with her guess and nodded in unison.

Ye Yuxiao continued to analyze: "If Zhuo Qiao wants to destroy Lotus White, he can just throw the bamboo tube into the stove and burn it. It will be over. There is no need to spend so much time secretly meeting an outsider..."

Hu Yanmu heard what she said and interjected: "Zhuo Qiao has never been to the kitchen, nor has she been near the pond. She has never been to any place where there is a possibility of 'destroying corpses and exterminating traces' - I asked The guards patrolling Huaiyuan Station."

Ye Yuxiao nodded: "So, Lotus Bai is probably still there, I just don't know where it is."

The same is true of "lotus flowers being stolen in vain". They are dead and they are alive, which are completely different concepts. If they are dead, there is no hope, and there is no point in bringing them back; if they are still alive, then the fisherman's poison can still be saved.

Hu Yanmu rekindled his fighting spirit, rolled up his sleeves, and walked away: "I will continue to interrogate her!"

The fisherman told Ye Yuxiao that she was rude and followed him.

Ye Yuxiao was at a loss and could do nothing but wait for the results of their interrogation. She had no choice but to go to work at the medical clinic as usual and wait patiently for news from Huaiyuanyi.

In the blink of an eye, on the third day, it was time to detoxify the fisherman for the third and last time. Although there was no trace of Lianhua Bai, Ye Yuxiao still came to Huaiyuan Station as promised. As soon as she entered the door, Yugu came up to her with a complicated expression and told her: "Zhuo Qiao will be recruiting soon."

"Seriously?" Ye Yuxiao was very happy, and then confused, "She is going to recruit. This is a good thing. Why do you look unhappy?"

Yugu forced a smile and said, "Amu gave her a severe punishment. She really couldn't bear it anymore, so she decided to do it."

Ye Yuxiao was a little surprised: "She stole the lotus white, which made it impossible to cure your poison, but you still sympathize with her?"

The fisherman smiled bitterly: "She has been following me for so many years, I can't bear it."

It seems that Mrs. Zuo Shanggong is a kind-hearted person. But if this matter were left to her, she would definitely feel uncomfortable. Ye Yuxiao patted her shoulder and comforted her.

While the two were talking, Hu Yanmu came over.

Ye Yuxiao asked happily: "Zhuo Qiao made a move?"

Hu Yanmu's brows were slightly wrinkled, and the expression on his face was full of confusion: "Zhuo Qiao was just about to be recruited when a servant came to report that Miss Xue, the sister of Mr. Xue, the Minister of Household Affairs, was here. She immediately Just shut up and refuse to say a word no matter how hard I beat you, what’s going on?”

Xue Jingyu? Ye Yuxiao suddenly remembered the first time she came to Huaiyuan Yi and was stopped by Xue Jingyu. Could it be that Zhuo Qiao was secretly colluding with Xue Jingyu?

Ye Yuxiao thought about it and frowned like Hu Yanmu: "No matter what is going on, you should go see Miss Xue first."

It can only be the. Hu Yanmu nodded and went into the hall.

The fisherman didn't know who Miss Xue was and asked Ye Yuxiao. Ye Yuxiao briefly told her about Xue Jingyu's countless past, which shocked the fisherman.

After Ye Yuxiao finished speaking, he asked Yugu: "Is there a screen in the hall? Let's go quietly and hide behind the screen to listen."

Yu Gu also had this intention, and she immediately sneaked in through the back door with Ye Yuxiao, hid behind a screen, and peeked out secretly.

In the hall, the person who came was really Xue Jingyu. She had probably just met Hu Yanmu. She was holding a tea cup in her hand and had a blush on her face.

Hu Yanmu had something on his mind and his expression was serious: "May I ask Miss Xue why you came here today?"

Xue Jingyu put down the tea cup and said, "I picked up something early this morning. I heard that Mr. Zuo Monkey might be interested in it, so I came here to ask you."

Hu Yanmu seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly raised his head: "What is it?"

Xue Jingyu took out a bamboo tube from her sleeve unhurriedly.

Ye Yuxiao, who was behind the screen, saw it and was so shocked that she almost screamed. Yu Gu unconsciously took a few steps forward and almost hit the screen.

Isn’t this a bamboo tube filled with lotus white!

Outside the screen, Hu Yanmu stared at the bamboo tube carefully for a long time, and his face gradually darkened: "What is this?"

Xue Jingyu stretched her arms towards him so that he could hear the movement in the bamboo tube.

Huyanmu was very familiar with this sound. He had seen it twice. As long as the fisherman was near Lianhuabai, Lianhuabai would become restless. Probably because the toxins in Yugu's body were getting less and less each time, compared with the previous two times, the noise caused by Lianhuabai today was not very big.

Hu Yanmu subconsciously looked towards the screen. Behind the screen, two figures appeared faintly. No wonder the bamboo tube moved. It turned out that the fisherman was in the hall.

He withdrew his gaze and looked at Xue Jingyu with a serious look in his eyes: "Who gave this to you? Zhuo Qiao?"

"Who is Zhuo Qiao?" Xue Jingyu asked, "I picked this thing up on the road."

Picked it up? Who believes it? Even if she really picked it up, how did she know that Yu Gu wanted to use it? Master Zuo clutched the tea cup tightly, almost crushing it: "I'm not a fool, why should Miss Xue deny it? Please tell me the truth quickly, why did you collude with my maid to steal the Gu insects?!"

Xue Jingyu looked innocent: "Mr. Zuo misunderstood, I really didn't steal this thing. I don't pick up things on the road, but Mr. Zuo said nasty things. Isn't it a bit too much?"

Too much? Is he going too far? He hasn't pulled out the knife to chop her until now, so he's being polite! However, Xue Jingyu refused to admit it, so he had no choice but to suppress his anger and follow her words: "Thank you, Miss Xue, for picking up gold. Please return the lotus white to me."

He said, stood up, walked to Xue Jingyu, and reached out to take it.

Xue Jingyu seemed to be on guard, she quickly retracted her hand and stuffed the bamboo tube back into her sleeve.

Hu Yanmu's anger suddenly rose again: "Didn't Miss Xue come to return Lotus White? Why didn't you give it to me?!"

Xue Jingyu took a few steps back, first distanced herself from him, and then said calmly: "I picked up such an important thing, shouldn't Master Zuo give me a thank you gift?"

It is indeed conditional! Huyanmu asked patiently: "What do you want?"

Xue Jingyu smiled slightly and her cheeks turned red again: "I heard that Lord Zuo Shan wanted me to issue an edict to the emperor to give you an equal wife? What do you think of me?"

The condition she offered was... to marry him? She went to great lengths to steal Lihuabai just to marry him? Huyanmu was stunned. He suddenly thought of Ye Yuxiao again. In order not to marry him, Ye Yuxiao tried his best to detoxify Yu Gu. She was exactly the opposite of Xue Jingyu.

Ha, the girl from Xichao is really interesting. After Huyanmu was surprised, he calmed down and said, "Treat my wife first, so that we can talk about the marriage easily."

"No." Xue Jingyu flatly refused, "Please ask the emperor for an order first, and then I will treat your wife."

"Today is her last chance! Do you want me to enter the palace now and ask for the emperor's decree?!" Hu Yanmu put his hand on his waist and wanted to draw the sword again.
