Xie Yu secretly sighed, then looked up and said, "Is that my sister-in-law and the others? Brother Ning, please put me down quickly. We have to catch up with my sister-in-law!"

But Ning Jin didn't put her down. Instead, he said, "When I took your forehead temperature before getting off the carriage, I found that your fever had gotten even worse. I carried you up directly."

His last sentence left no room for argument.

Xie Yu frowned and said worriedly, "Brother Ning, you said before that this ladder has 999 steps. Although I'm thin, I still weigh several dozen kilograms. Brother Ning, you will definitely be exhausted if you carry me up directly..."

Before she finished speaking, Ning Jin said, "Don't worry, let alone 999 steps, even if there were another 999 steps, I could easily carry you up!"

Li Shen echoed this, saying, "Yu'er, he's not bragging. It's just such a short staircase, so she could easily carry several of you up there at once! What's more, my second brother and I are here. If he really collapses from carrying you, we can just carry you!"

"How could I possibly collapse from exhaustion halfway?"

Ning Jin said this and walked up the stairs holding Xie Yu.

Li Shen followed closely.

Li Yan waited until Ning Ji and others caught up, but he still stood there without moving.

When Cuiwei and Qiufeng looked at him because he was taking so long to catch up, he suddenly turned to Cuiwei and asked, "Is Xiaoshu seriously ill this time?"

Cuiwei frowned subconsciously.

The young lady's illness this time is not serious, and she hasn't even asked the court doctor to see her.

Moreover, the young lady has a good appetite and eats a lot at every meal.

Then the young lady and Aunt Gui both said that if the abortion medicine was not taken for the last time, it would not have any effect on the young lady.

Can……

The young lady has become visibly thinner in the past two days.

Although she and Cuiwei both felt that the young lady must have lost weight rapidly because she was heartbroken by the prince, they did not dare to guarantee it.

So she didn't answer Li Yan.

Li Yan waited for a long while, and when she didn't say anything, he frowned, "Xiao Shu, is it because my third brother and I were so harsh on her that day that she was so angry that she told you not to talk to us?"

Cuiwei responded without hesitation, "Second Young Master, please ask yourself, were you and the Third Young Master really just harsh in your attitude towards the young lady that day? No! Not just that day! For the past six months, Second Young Master, Third Young Master, and even the Eldest Young Master and the Fourth Young Master, every time they reprimanded and scolded the young lady because of Miss Xie, were they really just harsh?"

Li Yan wanted to say of course.

I also want to say that it is because Xiaoshu has become more and more suspicious, jealous, and unreasonable, that they treat her with such a harsh attitude.

But before he could utter a single word, Cuiwei bowed her head and said, "I have overstepped my bounds, please forgive me, Second Young Master."

After she finished speaking, Cuiwei turned around and got on the carriage.

The maid beside her also turned over and sat in the carriage.

Li Yan frowned fiercely, and the thoughts that came to his mind when he saw Li Shu's red and sad eyes outside the Dingbei Marquis Mansion came to his mind again.

Did they really wrongly accuse Xiaoshu?

But Ning Jin said yesterday that he went again to question those who witnessed Xiaoshu and Yu'er falling into the water, and got the same testimony!

Should he go and question those people again in person?

At this moment, Xie Yu's voice reached his ears, "Second Brother Li, what are you doing standing there?"

Li Yan quickly gathered his thoughts and chased after him, "Here I am."

At this time, Li Shu, who had stopped to rest, heard Aunt Gui whisper, "Miss, the uncle and the second and third young masters are about to catch up with us."

Li Shu frowned subconsciously.

Then, Aunt Gui lowered her voice and said, "Xie Yu looks like she has lost her legs, yet she's still being held in her son-in-law's arms. I wonder if she's learned any etiquette or morality!"

Almost at the same time as Aunt Gui finished speaking, Li Shu heard several familiar footsteps.

Once again, she secretly sighed how great it was to know martial arts!

She had been gone for such a long time, but they caught up with her in the blink of an eye!

Then she said, "Let's move to the side and let them go first."

"Yes."

Nanny Gui agreed and supported her to the far left.

Jingzhe and others also moved over there.

Then Ning Jin, who was holding Xie Yu, and Li Yan and Li Shen stopped on their right side.

Li Shu often comes to Nanshan Temple and is used to climbing the stairs.

Therefore, although she was so tired that her face was slightly red, she was not out of breath.

Ning Jin stared at her for a few seconds and felt a little relieved.

But he thought that there were only less than a hundred steps and there were still about eight hundred steps ahead, so he said coldly, "Don't force yourself if you haven't recovered yet. I will come back to pick you up after I carry Yu'er up."

After all, he is her husband. No matter how much they quarrel, he will never ignore her life or death.

Seeing how much thinner she had become, he couldn't help but feel distressed.

If he had not questioned the witnesses again, he would probably have started to think that he had wronged her.

But he saw that after hearing what he said, Li Shu curled up the corners of her mouth and smiled self-deprecatingly.

That kind of smile had never been seen on her face before, and it was even less likely to appear on her face because of what he said.

He was inexplicably enraged in an instant, secretly cursed himself for being such a jerk again, and prepared to continue walking up.

But Xie Yu in his arms suddenly struggled, "Brother Ning, put me down. Let Second and Third Brother Li hold me. Go hold my sister-in-law. After all, you are husband and wife. It's wrong to put my sister-in-law behind me. You should always put my sister-in-law first!"

"Don't move. She's not worthy of me putting her first in everything right now!"

Ning Jin gritted his teeth and said this, then quickly went upstairs with Xie Yu in his arms.

Xie Yu called out "Brother Ning" several times in a complaining and helpless tone, but Ning Jin acted as if he didn't hear her. He could only turn around and shout to Li Shu, "Sister-in-law, please don't be angry with Brother Ning. You are definitely the most important person in his heart. He's just been stuck in a rut lately and has many misunderstandings about you..."

Having said this, Xie Yu suddenly stopped talking.

Because the look in Li Shu's eyes when she looked at her was calm, without any fluctuation or anger, nor the grievance, jealousy and envy she had expected.

This is really abnormal!

In the past, if she had said something similar at this time, it would definitely have provoked Li Shu to become hysterical and quarrel with Ning Jin!

Then she will get a lot of points after each event!

If she hadn't spent her points so lavishly, and if she hadn't really needed so many points to change her image, increase her strengths, and successfully make those who Li Shu value her regard her as the most special person, she would have already been a wealthy woman with 150,000 or 160,000 points!

But at this moment, Li Shu was not stimulated at all...

Thinking about all the abnormal behavior of Li Shu in the past few days...

Xie Yu's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately said to himself, "Tongzi! Li Shu's changes are too drastic and too abnormal. Please help me test whether she has been reborn like the heroines in some novels!"

[Given the host's current distance from Li Shu, the system cannot detect it.]

"Then let's wait until we get to the top of the mountain. I'll find a chance to get close to Li Shu!"

[Then please host, please spend as much time as possible with Li Shu.]

“How long exactly?”

【More than ten minutes.】

"it is good!"

Just ten minutes, a piece of cake for her.

but……

She had read so many novels about time travel and rebirth before traveling through time, but it took her so many days to realize that Li Shu might have been reborn.

She is so stupid!
