Chapter 280: Evil Concubine VS Living Dead General

Mrs. Xie saw that her son was still kneeling in silence, as if he was determined to take the blame for Lin Yushuang.

Suddenly, she had an idea and came up with a plan: "Xingzhi, since you want to take the blame for Lin Yushuang, I will give you this opportunity."

Xie Xingzhi's expression remained unchanged: "I'll leave it to mother to punish me."

Madam Xie said in a deep voice: "Since you are sincere in accepting the punishment, from today on, you will move to Hengwu Garden and take care of Little Koi closely until she recovers."

"Mother?" Xie Xingzhi frowned slightly, obviously dissatisfied with the punishment.

Madam Xie slammed the table and said, "What are you doing? If you dare to do it, you must dare to take the consequences. You dare to indulge your daughter-in-law to hurt my unborn grandson. Don't you have the ability to take the consequences for her?"

"You are my son, and you don't even have this much responsibility?"

"Little Koi is pregnant with your child, what has she done wrong? Who has she offended?"

"I'm telling you, not only do you have to take care of her until she recovers, you also have to apologize to her on behalf of your wife! My general's family has been loyal and lenient for generations, and we have never seen such an insulting thing happen. If you don't apologize, you are not my son!"

Xie Xingzhi was silent for a moment, and finally agreed: "Son knows."

Mrs. Xie was a person of swift and decisive character. After things were finalized that night, she had people move Xie Xingzhi's things out of Chengshuang Garden and move them all to Hengwu Garden the next day with great fanfare.

Lin Yushuang was so angry that she vomited blood on the bed, but there was nothing she could do.

This was acknowledged by Xie Xingzhi himself.

No matter who says something, nothing can shake him from agreeing.

Lin Yushuang could only watch as Xie's mother moved all of Xie Xingzhi's things out.

In Hengwu Garden.

Bai Qinghong was lying on a bamboo chair to cool off.

Her face and hands were burned, her hands were wrapped like pig's trotters, and her face was not much better, with redness and peeling all over, she looked so pitiful.

He looked in good spirits, with his big eyes rolling around and his two pig's trotters held high. When he saw Xie Xingzhi coming in, he acted as if he had seen a ghost and hid behind Linxi in fear.

Linxi covered his mouth and laughed secretly, muttering quietly: "Master, the lady has given you a rare opportunity. Why don't you seize the opportunity to cultivate your relationship with the general? Why are you hiding from him?"

Bai Qinghong shook his head pitifully: "He is very fierce, and his wife is also fierce. I don't want to provoke him."

Hearing this, Xie Xingzhi's mouth twitched slightly and he sneered in his heart.

It’s best not to get close to him, so he can save a lot of trouble.

Breakfast was served.

Just as Xie Xingzhi was about to eat, Nanny Li beside him reminded him, "General, Madam asked you to take care of Miss Jinli first."

Nanny Li was the person that Madam Xie left behind to take care of Bai Qinghong, and she also had the responsibility of supervising Xie Xingzhi.

Xie Xingzhi frowned and looked at Bai Qinghong beside him.

She blinked her eyes blankly, as if she didn't understand what Nanny Li said. The two steamed pig's trotters were still lying on the edge of the table and the breakfast was placed in front of her.

Nanny Li's meaning was very clear. She wanted him to prepare the meal for her personally.

Xie Xingzhi was silent for a moment, then picked up the bird's nest and milk porridge in front of her and fed it to her.

Bai Qinghong shrank his neck in fear: "Well... why don't we let Linxi come?"

Her big eyes were so lively, full of fear and resistance towards him, not hidden at all.

Nanny Li looked at her with amusement and said, "Miss Jinli, it's your blessing that the general wants to take care of you personally. Come on and eat!"

Bai Qinghong was about to cry out of fright.

Xie Xingzhi looked cold, expressionless, sharp and distant. Her mind was filled with the fear of being almost strangled to death by him that night. How could she dare to eat anything he handed over?

Xie Xingzhi lost his patience and said in a gloomy tone: "If you don't eat, you will be strangled to death."

Bai Qinghong was so scared that she quickly grabbed the spoon in his hand and put the porridge into her mouth. She was startled by the scalding sensation and did not dare to spit it out. She forced herself to swallow it, and tears as big as beans rolled down her cheeks.

Xie Xingzhi: "…Why are you crying again?"

Nanny Li quickly tried to smooth things over: "Look at this silly girl, she's so moved she's crying!"

Bai Qinghong sniffed, unable to hold it in any longer, and opened his mouth pitifully: "It's so hot..."

Xie Xingzhi: “…”

Nanny Li: "..." Xie Xingzhi was speechless for a while: "You won't spit it out if it's burned?"

Bai Qinghong was about to cry again: "I'm afraid you will scold me for wasting your family's food..."

Linxi and Nanny Li looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.

They all looked at this well-behaved, cute and not spoiled little girl with great fondness.

Or perhaps it was because the sickly Liuli at home had seen too much, so they had to walk lightly when passing in front of her, for fear that a gust of wind would blow if they walked too fast and make them sick.

As they were getting to know each other, a chubby, tough, lively country girl suddenly appeared. She was cheerful and cute, and it was hard for them not to like her.

Xie Xingzhi: “…”

He scooped another spoonful, this time put it to his lips, blew hard, and then handed it over.

Bai Qinghong learned his lesson this time. He carefully touched the porridge with his lips to make sure it was not hot before eating it.

But his brows furrowed again, as if in extreme pain.

Xie Xingzhi felt that she was deliberately acting coquettish to attract his attention, and he felt annoyed: "What's wrong? Still hot?"

Bai Qinghong sensed the cold aura around him and was too frightened to say a word. He quickly shook his head: "No... No..."

Xie Xingzhi had a cold face and scooped another spoonful for her.

With every bite, Bai Qinghong's brows furrowed a little more.

Xie Xingzhi finally lost his patience and threw the bowl away: "If you don't want to eat it, then don't eat it. Who are you showing off to as if you're eating poison?"

Bai Qinghong was stunned for a moment, feeling aggrieved: "I don't want to eat, it's just that my mouth hurts..."

Seeing that Xie Xingzhi didn't believe her, she quickly explained: "Really, I got burned just now, and I feel blisters on my tongue, look."

She opened her mouth and stuck out a little tongue.

The wet, tender and bright red soft flesh in the mouth was exposed defenselessly under his eyes.

Xie Xingzhi was caught off guard and saw a small red spot on the tip of her tongue.

Suddenly, I remembered the fresh and juicy seafood I had eaten two days ago.

The narrow, moist, hot and twisted feeling in the middle finger of my right hand became clear again.

He choked on his breath and put the bowl down abruptly: "How shameful!"

Bai Qinghong was startled and quickly shut up, looking at him uneasily.

Seeing that he just had a stern face and was not saying anything, she muttered quietly: "I was the one who was burned, why are you angry?"

Xie Xingzhi pushed the bowl over irritably: "Eat it yourself!"

Bai Qinghong held his little pig's hoof and looked at him eagerly.

Xie Xingzhi: “…”

After a long silence, he finally compromised and picked up the porridge again. This time he even blew on it a few more times and waited until it cooled down a bit before feeding it to her.

The two of them managed to finish their breakfast in relatively harmonious harmony.

There was nothing to do at noon. On weekdays, Bai Qinghong played games with the maids in the yard.

But her fever had just subsided and the fetus had just stabilized. Mrs. Xie repeatedly told her not to move and she could only lie in bed.

Xie Xingzhi was handling official business at the desk next to him.

Shitou came in to deliver official documents more frequently. He couldn't help but smile and said, "Master is particularly efficient today. This batch is the last batch of documents for today."

Xie Xingzhi was also stunned when he heard this. Things that usually took a whole day to complete were done quickly today.

I didn't feel annoyed.

He took one look at the room and immediately realized what was going on.

Hengwu Garden has a quiet and cool environment with ventilation on all sides. An occasional breeze blows by, making people feel relaxed and happy.

He unknowingly sped up his pace.

On weekdays in Chengshuang Garden, I feel stuffy and irritable, and often start sweating after sitting for a while.

He needs to drink cold tea constantly and wipe the sweat off his body with a handkerchief...
