I kicked out my vicious husband and married his great-uncle

Cui Shuyan took a look at the dark medicine and smiled faintly: "Mammy, put it aside for now. I just ate something and I feel a little full now. I can't drink it anymore."

Nanny Rong's smile remained unchanged: "Young Madam, Madam has instructed you to drink it as soon as possible. This medicine is best taken while it is hot. If it is cold, the effect will be greatly weakened."

The smile on Cui Shuyan's face gradually faded, and her tone was neither hurried nor slow, but it contained an indescribable pressure: "Mammy, I've already said that I can't drink it. What, Mammy, do you still want to force me to drink?"

Nanny Rong's face changed: "Young Madam, this old servant didn't mean that."

"It's best if you don't mean that. Just keep the medicine here. I'll drink it when I want to."

Nanny Rong lowered her head, turned around and walked out.

Qiao Ya was a little worried: "Miss, would it be bad to offend Aunt Rong like this?"

"will not."

If it were in the past, she would certainly not disobey Madam Xie so bluntly.

But now that she is pregnant, she is willing to do anything for the child.

This medicine is most likely an abortion pill, and she would never drink it.

Even though, what she was about to face was a violent storm.

But, strangely, until sunset, Mrs. Xie never sent anyone over.

This is not Madam Xie's style.

She must have a trick up her sleeve.

After the night grew darker, Cui Shuyan looked at the inky night sky and roughly understood Madam Xie's plan.

Madam Xie has always been a cruel person.

Sure enough, not long after Cui Shuyan fell asleep, the sound of swords clashing suddenly came from outside.

At the same time, Shi Liu's vigilant voice came: "Young Madam, be careful!"

Cui Shuyan had anticipated this and immediately covered her mouth and nose with a handkerchief.

The moment she stood up, Qiaoya, who was sleeping in the outer room, took a feather duster and smashed it hard against the window.

When Cui Shuyan took a look, she saw that a small hole had been torn in the window paper, and a bamboo tube with smoking emanations appeared in her sight.

Cui Shuyan and Qiaoya looked at each other, and Qiaoya immediately opened the cabinet beside her and took out a packet of medicine powder from the box inside.

This powder was prepared by Cui Shuyan long ago and is poisonous.

"Miss, please cover your mouth and nose." As she said that, Qiaoya stood in front of Cui Shuyan and looked towards the door vigilantly.

Whenever someone rushed in, she would sprinkle the powder in her hand.

The two were ready for battle.

What was strange was that while there was such a commotion in the inner courtyard, no one came in from the outer courtyard.

There are clearly seven or eight maids and old women living in the outer courtyard.

At this time, the sound of fighting outside was getting closer and closer.

Judging from the noises outside, there was more than one person coming, and Shi Liu was a little overwhelmed.

Just then, a loud whistle sounded.

After a while, it seemed that someone else joined in and the fighting outside became more and more intense.

Cui Shuyan was a little worried. Just as she was about to walk to the window to look out, she heard strong footsteps coming from outside the door.

The next moment, the door was kicked open and a tall and majestic figure appeared in Cui Shuyan's sight.

Seeing him, Cui Shuyan immediately said, "Qiaoya, stop it!"

The one who came was Xie Xingyuan.

Seeing that Cui Shuyan was unharmed, the stiff expression on his face relaxed a little, and he asked, "Are you not scared?"

"No."

In a flash, Xie Xingyuan noticed the powder in Qiaoya's hand and frowned: "Hold it farther away."

Qiaoya did as she was told immediately.

Cui Shuyan walked out and saw Shi Liu with an injured right arm.

At this time, Mr. Wen was standing beside her, bandaging her wound.

On the ground nearby, there were several men in black lying.

Xie Xingyuan said in a cold voice: "Mr. Wen, let Geng Shun come to see me."

Geng Shun was the chief guard in charge of guarding the palace.

Mr. Wen responded and went to call someone immediately.

Just at this moment, Madam Xie hurried in from outside.

Seeing Xie Xingyuan, she seemed very surprised: "Uncle, why are you here?"

Xie Xingyuan looked at him coldly: "If I don't come again, someone will die in the mansion."

As if she had just seen the men in black on the ground, Madam Xie was extremely surprised: "What, what's going on? Why would men in black come in out of nowhere?"

"Are you asking me this?" Xie Xingyuan's face turned even colder. "You are the one who is in charge of this mansion. Since you can't manage it well, let Cui take charge from now on."

"Uncle, it was just an accident."

"Accident? If such accidents happen a few more times, will my life be at stake? Or do you think I am discussing this with you?"

What he said was to inform Madam Xie, not to discuss with her.

Mrs. Xie's face changed and she dared not say anything more. She had to do as she was told and go in person to get the housekeeper's keys, matching cards and other tokens.

But before leaving, he looked at Cui Shuyan meaningfully.

After Madam Xie left, Xie Xingyuan asked, "Why did she attack you?"

Cui Shuyan didn't say anything, she just lowered her head and looked at her belly.

With just one glance, Xie Xingyuan understood.

Xie Xingyuan sighed almost inaudibly: "You still don't want to divorce?"

"Now is not the time."

"You want to take revenge on the Dafang family?"

Cui Shuyan was surprised: "How did you know?"

"Guess."

"Do you want to stop me?" Cui Shuyan's voice became much colder.

Xie Xingyuan had already seen through her intention. If he tried to stop her, she would have no chance of winning.

"No, just do your thing."

Cui Shuyan's heart warmed up and she asked, "Shi Liu is yours, right?"

Xie Xingyuan was stunned for a moment, but did not refute: "Yes."

This is not difficult to guess. After the loud whistle sounded, Xie Xingyuan and others came over.

The person who sounded the distress whistle could only be Pomegranate.

Thinking along the line of pomegranate, Cui Shuyan suddenly raised her head and looked at Xie Xingyuan: "Senior Sister He is also yours?"

"No. I invited her here."

"Where are Master Zhishan and Master Kong?"

"I can't invite Master Kong, that's a good relationship you made yourself. As for Master Zhishan, he did me a favor."

It turned out to be the case.

Cui Shuyan was very surprised: "You are a member of the Xie family, why are you helping me?"

"Have you ever seen a family member who is calculating?"

Just because he doesn't say anything doesn't mean he knows nothing.

Cui Shuyan nodded and understood.

I still feel very surprised.

It turned out that Xie Xingyuan had been thinking about helping her since so early on.

However, as the most senior person in the Xie family, if he didn’t like the Xie family’s eldest wife, he could just ask them to move out. Why would he go to so much trouble?

In a flash, thinking of the hidden power behind Madam Xie, Cui Shuyan was no longer surprised.

"Have you found out the relationship between Concubine Xian and Madam Xie?"
