The daughter of the metaphysical fortune teller: she is the best at eating melons to prolong life

Chapter 286 You Kill Someone, I Give You Poison
Xie Dahe looked at Xie Lan with suspicion, "Lan girl, why do you suddenly think of asking this? Your mother only gave birth to you. She had someone send you to Sanqing Mountain, and she died of illness not long after."

Seeing Xie Lan staring at him coldly, Xie Dahe suddenly became angry, his eyes widened, "Lan girl, don't let your imagination run wild and think that we killed your mother!
I tell you the truth, your mother injured her vitality when she gave birth to you, and she suffered from postpartum bleeding, so she passed away. It has nothing to do with us!

If you don’t believe me, you can ask your second uncle, he knows these things too.”

Xie Lan didn't originally have high expectations for this matter, he just wanted to take this opportunity to inquire about it.

However, what she didn't expect was that Xie Donghai looked a little uncomfortable. Although he quickly returned to normal, the panic and guilt at that moment still didn't escape her eyes.

Xie Lan's eyes rolled, his face turned cold, and he asked sternly: "Second Uncle, you are so guilty, could it be that you killed my mother?"

Xie Donghai jumped up like a cat whose tail was stepped on, and retorted: "What nonsense are you talking about, girl! Your mother and I have no grudges against each other, why would you want to harm her! Your third uncle is right, your mother did die of illness.

Lan girl, don't you think about it? When your mother gave birth to you, your father was at home. How could he allow such a thing to happen? Although Second Uncle doesn't know where you heard these rumors, I can be sure that they are all rumors and slander.

If you don't believe it, wait for your father to come back and ask him in person!"

"After all this, Second Uncle still wants to hide it from me? Then don't blame your niece for being rude!" Xie Lan sneered and pointed at Tiechui with a sharp look.

Before Xie Donghai knew what she meant, he saw Tiechui's figure flash and firmly grasp Xie Yuan beside him. The long sword in his hand flashed with a cold light and was firmly placed on Xie Yuan's neck.

"Stop!" Xie Donghai was horrified and his face turned pale in an instant. He subconsciously rushed forward a few steps, trying to save his son, but suddenly stopped.

He wanted to save his son, but he was afraid that his rash behavior would anger Tiechui and make her kill him without hesitation.

Holding back his anger, Xie Donghai looked at Xie Lan anxiously, his voice trembling a little: "Lan girl, why don't you tell your maid to let go of Yuan Ge'er!
Your mother's death has nothing to do with me. When she passed away, your second brother was not yet born. He is innocent! Why did you arrest him? Let him go immediately!"

Xie Dahe was shocked by this sudden change. He subconsciously wanted to scold Xie Lan, but he was worried that she would get angry and even threaten his son. After thinking about it, he shut up.

Everyone has selfish desires. Although he didn't want Xie Yuan to be killed, he didn't want anything to happen to his son even more.

Xie Lan believed that Su had only given birth to the original owner, but she didn't believe that Xie Donghai knew nothing about Su's death. How could she let go of such a good opportunity to interrogate him so easily?

"If you weren't the one who murdered my mother, then who killed her? Uncle, if you won't tell me the truth, then I can only be rude to you, my second brother."

"Lan girl, if you kill someone, you must pay with your life. Lord Xiao is still watching here. If you kill your second brother, you will not be able to escape death."

Xie Lan sneered. Her second uncle was not stupid. He knew how to use the tiger's skin to pull the banner.

Xie Lan took a quick look and realized that Lord Xiao had asked the waiter for a pot of tea and was drinking it by himself.

After all, Xie Lan was threatening Xie Donghai with murder, and he was not sure whether he would stop it. After thinking about it, he decided to find an excuse to get him out.

Unexpectedly, before she could open her mouth, Xiao Jin seemed to have read her mind, and took out a small and exquisite porcelain bottle from his arms, and said slowly, "Don't cut it with a sword, the blood will not look good, and it will also affect your appetite.

This bottle contains poison. If you feed it to your second brother, I guarantee that no one will know. Even if the imperial physician came, he would not be able to find out the real cause of death. At most, he could only find out that he was too emotional, which triggered the palpitations he had in his mother's womb, and finally lost his life because of it."

Xiao Jin paused, glanced at Xie Donghai, and continued, "Your second uncle sold his own daughter to Mr. Song as a concubine for money. Your second brother disagreed, so he quarreled with him, which is why he was so emotional."

Xie Donghai was shocked and angry, his eyes were as big as copper bells, staring at Xiao Jin, his eyes seemed to be spitting fire. He never thought that Master Xiao did not stop Xie Lan, the dead girl, from killing people, but even let her poison.

He wanted to question Xiao Jin how he could help the tyrant as the Minister of Justice, but when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back when he thought of his identity.

Although Xie Yuan was scared just now, he didn't believe that Xie Lan really dared to kill him in front of his father. It was obvious that she really took the medicine bottle, and finally couldn't help asking for help, "Dad, Dad... Save me quickly, I don't want to die."

"Lan girl, you are not the only one here. Even if you kill your second brother, you can't hide this matter..."

Xie Lan interrupted him impatiently, "If you don't tell me, I will kill them all."

After Xie Lan said this, Xie Dahe was fine, but Xie Rui was so scared that he almost cried, "Sister, you can't kill me, I didn't kill your mother. If you want to kill someone, kill my father, I am innocent."

Xie Mao also shouted, "Big sister, I am innocent too. You can't blame us for what Second Uncle did. He is responsible for his own actions. Since he killed your mother, let him pay for her life himself."

Xie Donghai never expected that before Xie Lan even asked him to pay with his life, his own son and nephew wanted to push him to death first. He was so angry that he almost vomited blood.

Seeing that Xie Lan was not moved, Xie Donghai had to speak up, "Lan girl, I really didn't kill your mother, but maybe it was related to your father."

Xie Lan's heart was moved, but his face was full of doubt, "Impossible, my father and mother have such a good relationship, how could he kill my mother? You must have lied to me on purpose, trying to alienate the relationship between me and my father."

Xie Donghai did have the intention to sow discord, but he was not lying.

"Who said your father and mother had a good relationship? Your mother was picked up from the mountain by your father when he went up to the mountain to chop wood. Your mother broke her head and got amnesia. She even forgot her own name.

Your father saw that she was beautiful and wore exquisite clothes and jewelry, so he guessed that she was from a wealthy family, so he became interested and used sweet words to trick your mother back home to marry him.

Seeing that Xie Lan didn't believe what he said before, Xie Donghai gritted his teeth and simply told everything that he had kept in his heart for many years.

After Su and Xie Changting got married, the Xie family moved to the capital. Xie Changting sold Su's jewelry and used the money she had on her to buy a house and donate money to an official position. He lived a wealthy life from then on.

Xie Lan was a little disappointed. She thought Xie Donghai knew some secret. She had already overheard what he said from the conversation between Xie Dahe and Zhu.
