The old woman only felt her vision blur. Before she could see who it was, she was slapped. Half of the snacks that she had eaten were spat out before she could swallow them. The rest was choked in her throat and she smelled blood.
As she coughed, her ears buzzed.
The maid saw that she was beaten up and rushed forward to scratch her,'”’Who are you? How dare you hit my mother?”
Who knew that before she could even get close, she would be kicked by Cai Wei. Although she had restrained her strength, the maid still cried out in pain. At this moment, the old woman reacted.” Where are you from? Why did you come up and hit me for no reason?”!”
“Where did it come from? If you see injustice on the road, draw your sword and help!” Cai Wei refused to sign up and went up to slap the old woman’s face.
“What a cheap mouth!”
The maid could not take it anymore and grabbed a rock from the ground to throw it at Cai Wei. Cai Wei was skilled in martial arts and with a flash, the rock accurately hit her own mother’s head.
Cai Wei was speechless. She wanted to make a big fuss, but she really didn’t want to hit people’s heads.
His own daughter put justice above family?
Without waiting for Cai Wei to make a move, the old woman, who had clearly been apprehensive earlier, was struck dumb by the stone. She did not notice who had hit her, but felt that this face made her dizzy from slapping her left and right.
But it was fine if it was a fan of light, but he actually used a stone to smash it. Even the blood flowed down his forehead and covered his eyes.
This time, she couldn’t hold it in anymore. She couldn’t hold it in anymore. She shouted at the top of her lungs,”Murder! Robbery! Murder! Help!”

When Xiao Baoxin arrived at Freedom Yard, Lady Yuan was still chanting in the small Buddhist hail.
This was her first afternoon as a daughter-in-law, and the maids did not dare to be negligent. They quickly went to report back, but Xiao Baoxin smiled and said,”There’s no rush. 1’11 wait for Ah Niang to finish the ceremony. Don’t disturb Ah Niang.”
The maids did not dare to leave the new madam there. They only said,”Furen’s words were originally meant to show filial respect to Old Furen, but Old Furen is pious. In the afternoon, when she has nothing to do, she would be in the temple hall, copying scriptures and chanting Buddha. Sometimes, she would stay for the entire afternoon until she paid her respects to Grand Furen before going out.”
“It’s our sin to keep making Madam wait like this.”
With that, the maid went to invite Lady Yuan.
Madam Yuan was copying scriptures. When she heard her daughter-in-law coming over to pay her respects, she put down her brush and invited her in.
“It was Baoxin’s fault for disturbing mother’s Buddhist ceremony. “Xiao Baoxin entered the room to pay his respects first, then approached with a smile.
Lady Yuan smiled.” It’s just that you don’t know my habits. I’m used to peace and quiet. 1 like to stay in the small Buddhist hall when I have nothing to do.” Our family still has the Grand Madame, so we can meet each other every morning and evening. You don’t have to come to me first.”
“Hey.” Xiao Baoxin replied. “I’ll listen to Mother.”
It was very straightforward, without any fear or trepidation. Madam Yuan liked it very much.
If it was in the past, she would definitely cross her heart. When she was in charge of the imperial court, she was also a person who welcomed and sent people off. However, after the death of Xie Shizhong, she devoted herself to Buddhism. At first, she was killing time, but later, she really got into it. She also found that she was becoming more and more pure and less desirous. She could not be bothered with the troubles in the secular world. Instead, Xiao Baoxin’s straightforward and unbashful personality caught her eye.
If Xiao Baoxin were to push and push her, she would be annoyed to death.
Although it was a small temple hall, the room was very spacious. The middle was divided into three rooms by a screen. The east room was a place for meditation and rest, and the middle room was dedicated to Buddha and Bodhisattva. The west room they were in was divided into a study room, which was filled with Buddhist scriptures. A large table was equipped with high-quality brush, ink, paper, and inkstone. There was even a half-written Buddhist scripture on the table.
After the maid served the tea, Lady Yuan saw Xiao Baoxin glance at the scripture she had copied and smiled lightly.
“Baoxin has studied Buddhism?”
Xiao Baoxin was stunned and shook his head. I’m not too interested.”
She thought that her mother-in-law had the intention of teaching her, but who knew that it was exactly what Lady Yuan wanted.
“That’s right. You’re still young. It’s time to see this colorful world. It’s not a good thing to indulge in Buddhism early. “Then she would marry a daughter-in-law, find a friend, and find a partner for her son who would not live in the three realms and the five elements.
Knowing that her mother-in-law wasn’t trying to pull her into Buddhism, Xiao Baoxin was relieved.
“I have something to tell mother.” Xiao Baoxin took a sip of tea, then placed the teacup on the table with both hands and spoke respectfully.
“Oh?” Madam Yuan was stunned.” Just say it.””He didn’t understand why his daughter-in-law was so serious and had a serious expression.
Xiao Baoxin had already thought it through. He couldn’t let Xie Xian take the lead in this matter. It was his sincerity that he wanted to protect her. However, if she didn’t even take the lead in Madam Yuan’s case and pushed it all to Xie Xian, it would seem that she didn’t take the Xie family seriously and was relying on Xie Xian to have nothing to fear.
Moreover, Madam Yuan was a precious mother. She only had her son in her eyes and heart. Even her own daughter had to stand aside. As a daughter-in-law, she had to do everything in the first place and not let others find fault with her.
Otherwise, she had heard a lot about mother-in-law rubbing her daughter-in-law.
Hence, he carefully told her the ins and outs of the matter.
Madam Yuan sneered after hearing this.
“Wang Lang’s methods are getting more and more despicable. He actually used the reputation of the little lady. A living human life was destroyed in his hands. How immoral!”
He did not comment on other matters, but he also expressed his attitude.
“Alright, you don’t have to take these to heart. I’m not an unreasonable mother-in-law. It’s my greatest wish for you husband and wife to be harmonious and filial to your elders.”
Lady Yuan sighed.” It’s said that the harem’s secret methods are cruel and bloody. In fact, the previous dynasty was even worse. It’s just that women like to spread such gossip and are ignorant.””
Her mother-in-law was knowledgeable and broad-minded, so Xiao Baoxin was relieved.
“.. Ah Xian still had an idea. This was a good idea.”When she turned around and talked about her son, a smile appeared on her face. She was really proud of him, and her eyes showed it.
“You don’t know, but when Ah Xian was young, he was already very intelligent. When he was ten, his father told him about the matters of the court, analyzed the current situation, and understood the advantages and disadvantages. His father often praised him for his unique vision and many good plans.”
The second half of the sentence was hidden and not said. Xie Shi Zhong also said that Xie Xian was either weak or caused by twists and turns in his childhood, which was quite extreme.
He already understood his dissatisfaction with the aristocratic families.
As soon as Xie Xian was mentioned, Madam Yuan obviously couldn’t stop herself. It was as if she had opened up a chatterbox. Xiao Baoxin sat on the futon and listened to the glorious history of Xie Xian’s childhood for the time it takes an incense stick to burn.
Oh, just like the Xie Xian in her previous impression, simply described as tall and classy.
Commonly known as the child of others..
