In Du Heng's courtyard, Xie Xin was still kneeling on the ground.
There was just a soft cushion under his knees.
After all, he is Chen Fang's biological son. Even if he has caused a big disaster now, how can Chen Fang bear to punish him severely?
What's more, Xie Xin was venting her anger by teaching Xie Bao, her concubine, a lesson.
Even if he made the old man so angry that he had a stroke, it was not intentional.
If the old man had listened to the imperial physician and controlled his diet on a daily basis, he would not have suffered a stroke from anger, and would not have become paralyzed on one side of his body and unable to speak.
Chen Fang kept making excuses for her son in her heart. When she saw Xie Yi coming back, she immediately asked, "Did you give him the things? Did he accept them?"
Xie Yi nodded. Seeing the ecstasy in her eyes, he immediately became alert: "Xie Xiu accepted the gift, and mother seemed very happy? Did mother tamper with the box?"
Chen Fang knew what he was worried about and quickly waved her hand, "Don't worry. The contents of the box are colorless and odorless. He will never notice anything unusual and suspect you or me."
Xie Yi, however, became increasingly alert. He refused to give up and continued to ask, "What on earth did mother put in there? I think Xie Xiu is incredibly lucky. Mother, please don't let this backfire!"
Chen Fang's face darkened with displeasure. "I told you to rest assured, why don't you believe me? You're my son, how could I possibly harm you?"
On the other side, Xie Xiu just returned to Xiaoxiang Courtyard with the brocade box, and Xie Ying immediately noticed it.
Tu Jiaojiao looked at the brocade box in Xie Xiu's hand and subconsciously reached out to take it, asking, "Is this from your father?"
Unexpectedly, Xie Xiu dodged her hand and stopped her from touching the box: "Don't worry, Xie Yi brought this to me specially, and said it was a gift from my mother."
After saying that, he winked at Tu Jiaojiao.
Tu Jiaojiao immediately understood: "Okay, keep it for yourself."
Xie Xiu found a larger box, put the brocade box given by Xie Yi into it personally, and locked it.
"Okay, let's go. Father said there's no need to say goodbye to the old lady."
Tu Jiaojiao had no choice but to go. She snorted when she heard that, turned around to greet people and prepared to set off.
This time they will not only move the things away, but also take the servants away.
As for the beautiful maids that Chen Fang had deliberately sent, as well as the servants arranged by the mansion, Tu Jiaojiao did not take any of them with her, but only let them stay to look after Xiaoxiang Courtyard.
Not only were these people not sad about being abandoned, they were secretly very happy.
Although the Taoist priest was not a legitimate person and had been arrested by the government, they still felt it was better to believe it and no one was willing to continue to serve him in the other courtyard.
What if there really is some evil spirit that brings them bad luck all day long and kills them?
So these people stayed with great joy, and nodded one by one, saying that they would take good care of Xiaoxiang Courtyard.
However, as soon as Xie Xiu and the others left, these people immediately ran out of Xiaoxiang Courtyard and went to beg for help, hoping to be transferred to serve elsewhere.
At the same time, on the carriage.
Tu Jiaojiao hugged Xie Ying and whispered to Xie Xiu, "When you were away earlier, Xie You came and said that the old lady was very angry this time. She also said that she believed Yingying was definitely not an evil star. What do you think she wants to do?"
Xie Xiu smiled, not really caring: "She's just trying to win us over, so we'll just deal with it. We've moved out now, and if she's willing to help pass on information, we can return the favor."
Tu Jiaojiao sighed, "It's not easy for her, but we can't decide her marriage, so I'm afraid there's a limit to what we can do to help her."
Xie Xiu, however, was very open-minded: "Don't worry about it. There's only so much she can do to help us."
Ever since he found out what Xie Jia had done, he no longer had any warmth towards his half-sisters. Instead, he was always on guard against them stabbing him in the back.
Although Xie You is not Xie Jia, he does not want to gamble with the safety of himself and his family.
