14. Chapter 13
Xie Yao's miscarriage and Li were involved in the slander between women. Jiang did not want his two daughters to listen to him, so he asked the two sisters to coax Fang Ling.
Xie Lanqiao was impatient with dealing with the children, ran away like a flash, and threw Fang Ling to his sister.
The sister was cunning, and Xie Lanyin was so angry that she almost stomped her feet. She couldn't lose her temper with the child when she looked timid and restrained.
He led Fang Ling back to Yaoyue Pavilion. Xie Lanyin sat on the couch. Seeing Fang Ling followed him timidly, her little face was crying and her eyes were red. Xie Lanyin couldn't bear to worry. She took a deep breath and tried to make a soft voice and asked, "Does A Ling know who I am?"
Fang Ling nodded and looked at her and said, "You are the fifth cousin. My mother said that the fifth cousin is the best-looking."
Xie Lanyin pulled the corners of her mouth, suspecting that Xie Yao deliberately taught her daughter to coax them to take her in. However, looking at the stunning stunning girl's eyes, Xie Lanyin was more useful than listening to her learning. She sighed and ordered Sangzhi: "Go and bring a basin of water to serve the cousin to wash her face."
Sangzhi took the order and left.
Xie Lanyin waved and waited for Fang Ling to come over with restraint. She held the girl's hand and lowered her head to ask her, "A Ling, why did your aunt say that my uncle doesn't want you anymore? He drove you out?" The mother on the other side of the room didn't let her listen, so she had to find out the news from Fang Ling.
When talking about his father, Fang Ling's eyes turned red again, "Dad wants to marry his cousin, so he doesn't want us anymore. Mom said she would take me to her grandmother's house in Hangzhou... Dad went to the government office in the morning and hasn't come back yet. Mom was afraid that Dad would not allow me to go to Hangzhou, so she took me to ask my aunt for help..."
Xie Lanyin touched the girl's head, and doubts appeared in her eyes.
Xie Yao came out sneaked out, but if she just wanted to take her daughter away, Xie Yao could wait until her health was about to recover. As the prefect, Fang Ze was in the government office most of the day. Why did he drag his weak body to join him? Is it because his aunt had to take her in due to the approaching happy event?
That's probably it. My cousin got married is a big deal. My aunt is now devoted to preparing for the marriage and has no energy to deal with Xie Yao.
It’s no good that she suffered a big fall, and Xie Yao’s ability to make people feel more and more troubled.
Thinking that Xie Yao was going back to Hangzhou after all, she planned to go back with the three of them. Xie Lanyin's chest was like a ball of cotton blocking her chest, and she was so stuffy.
"Fifth cousin, I want to be with my mother. Please beg for my aunt, don't let my father take me away?" Fang Ling said and observed her cousin's face nervously. Seeing her frowning, the little girl was even more worried. Tears rolled down in pairs, looking at her cousin pitifully.
She is the blood of the Fang family. As long as Fang Ze disagreed, no one could persuade him. Xie Lanyin believed that the elders would not interfere rashly and offend Fang Ze for Xie Yao. She didn't want to deceive Fang Ling, nor did she make her cry for nothing. Xie Lanyin looked at Sang Zhi who brought the water in and coaxed her softly: "Don't be afraid, A Ling, my aunt will have a way to take you away. Okay, go and wash her face first, and I will take you to find my aunt later."
Her voice sounds nice and makes people feel more at ease when coaxing people. Fang Ling relaxed her expression and went to wash her face obediently.
After washing, Sang Zhi took her to the dressing mirror to dress up. When he arrived in front of him, he found that there was only the beauty on the rosewood dressing table. Looking at the girl who was looking down on the couch and pondering, Sang Zhi was reluctant to give Fang Ling the good things that the third young master gave to the girl. When he picked up the pastry balm box, he pretended to be surprised and turned his head to ask the parrot, "The girl's balm was used up in the morning. I asked you to change it to a new one. Have you forgotten?"
When Xie Lanyin heard this, she looked up and looked over.
The parrot had skillfully echoed Sangzhi and said, "Look at my memory, wait, I'll get it right away." After that, he quickly walked out. The balm the girl used before was also given by the third young master. She could only buy a small box of dozens of taels. When the girl got the new one, she rewarded them with the old ones, and she did not slouch her when she used it for Fang Ling.
The two maids were weird, and Xie Lanyin only found it funny. It was good to be beautiful. She would not send anyone except her sisters, but if she only used it once in her room, she would not be so stingy. However, the maids all acted, and it was difficult for her to expose them now. Fortunately, Fang Ling is young and should not be able to guess the tricks here.
The parrot came back soon and took a box of full balm. After opening it, the quiet fragrance of orchids immediately dispersed.
Fang Lingqing couldn't help but take a breath, knowing that this was a good thing, but she thought of the faint rose fragrance that she smelled on her fifth cousin. The little girl's eyes turned around on the pastel balm box over there, clenched her cuffs, and lowered her eyes.

When Xie Yao and her daughter arrived at the Jiang family, the Fang family's manager hurried to the government office.
Fang Ze was deciding the case, but he heard from the manager that Du Ying'er had not come out after going to his wife's side. His wife quickly took her daughter out of the house. She expected something to happen, so she postponed the trial with insufficient evidence. She rushed back uneasy and went straight to his wife's yard after entering the house.
"Where has Madam gone?" Seeing that Madam Liu was blocking the door, as if she had expected him to come back, Fang Ze asked in a deep voice.
Madam Liu slowly knelt down and covered her handkerchief to wipe her tears. "Master, my cousin bullies me too much. I heard that my wife refused to leave, so she wanted to persecute her when we were not in the house. Fortunately, we came back in time to save our wife's life. The lady was still scared and dared not live in the mansion anymore. She led the eldest lady to Uncle Jiang's house, and her cousin..."
"How is she?" Fang Ze suddenly felt a bad premonition in his heart.
Madam Liu raised her lips in a difficult situation and lowered her head and said, "Miss Cousin wants to kill her wife with a hairpin. When we stopped her, she accidentally hurt herself..."
"Where are she?" Fang Ze was furious and kicked Mama Liu.
Mama Liu screamed, Fang Ze no longer had the patience to wait for her to continue talking, and rushed in with a blue face. When she entered the house, she saw Du Ying'er's master and servant tied his hands and feet back to the bed post, including Du Ying'er's back facing him, Wutong was struggling, and Du Ying'er did not move at all.
Fang Ze walked around quickly, "Shad..."
Before he finished calling his cousin, he took two steps back in shock and stared at the two slender blood marks on Du Ying'er's face in disbelief. He had one on his left and right face. The intact part was stained with blood, which was hideous and terrifying.
"Master, Madam said that she has been married to you for eight years. Although Madam is cruel to divorce, she cannot do anything to ruin the reputation of Madam. Madam made a big mistake. Fortunately, she was in danger. Madam refused to send Madam to the official position. The rest of the matter was asked by the master to deal with it. But Madam did not dare to stay in the mansion anymore. She dragged her sick body to the Jiang family, and only asked the master to allow her to take the eldest lady away. Madam would have the next child if she married a new man. Madam might only have the eldest lady…”
Madam Liu bent over and followed in and said sadly.
How could Fang Ze believe her nonsense? Look at Du Ying'er, who was still flirting with him last night but was injured and unconscious at this time. Fang Ze suddenly pulled open the handkerchief from Wutong's mouth. Before he could ask, Wutong shouted and shouted, "Master, the girl was killed! The lady asked the girl to come over to get the old gifts given by the girl, and took the opportunity to bully people and sent someone to attack the girl!"
"Bah!" Madam Liu spitted on her face, "We were ordered to get things. When we came back, we saw you sneaking outside the door, just like the wind. When we rushed in, the cousin was about to stab the wife. You dare to bite her back, because the evidence was all right. Do you think the wife is too easy to talk to, right?"
Wutong refused to accept it and made a loud argument.
Mama Liu's voice was louder than her, and she wished she could make a fuss to everyone knows.
Fang Ze's forehead leaped with blue veins, his eyes swept over the blood-stained white jade hairpin beside Du Ying'er, and he recognized that it was indeed Du Ying'er's. He shouted sternly and stared at Wutong and asked, "Miss cousin talks with his wife, why are you not serving inside?"
Wutong knew that this was not good for her girl, and her eyes flashed. Fang Ze roared and lied to death: "Madam, Madam has something to say to the girl, let me go out..."
Mama Liu sneered, "When did you listen to your wife like this?"
Wutong pursed her lips, and saw Fang Ze's face sinking, and immediately avenged her master, "Master, the girl is really hurt by them. You have promised to marry a girl. He Lishu has already drawn a ban on her. She has to agree if she doesn't agree. Why should the girl do this forever?"
"The only seals of the government were stamped on the Heli Book. Our wife has not yet written them. She just came to force the lady to put her handprints!" Madam Liu stared and sprayed back. After saying that, she was too lazy to defend her. Madam Liu turned around to salute Fang Ze, "Master, since Wutong insisted that it was the lady who framed the girl, then I will report back to the lady and report it directly to the official. Please make a ruling in the court!"
After really going to the court, the girl was forced to divorce her miscarriage. Du Ying'er had reason to harm others. Who would the people believe?
Besides, is Fang Ze willing to give up this face?
Just as he was proud, someone suddenly slapped him in the face.
Madam Liu fell down uncontrollably, her head buzzing.
"Get out! Let me tell Xie Yao immediately and let her move her things out tomorrow. Today, we Fang Ze and her will be merciless. If she planted anything, don't come to me to plead with you!"
Fang Ze has been in the officialdom for so many years, but how can he not see the good game set by Xie Yao? Xie Yao has all the evidence and evidence. Wutong hid outside the door and helped her. Du Ying'er couldn't win the lawsuit, let alone he couldn't let this matter spread. When the matter ended in this way, he could only blame him for underestimating Xie Yao's ruthlessness and overestimating Du Ying'er's intelligence. It's a foregone conclusion that Du Ying'er just needs to stay in the hearing garden honestly and be able to be the new wife in a month. But she insisted on coming over to compete with Xie Yao...
After driving Liu Mama away, Fang Ze sent someone to lock Wutong into the woodshed and then ordered someone to hire a doctor.
He sent Du Ying'er back to Wen Shengyuan. Looking at her cousin whose appearance was destroyed, Fang Ze felt distressed and angry, and smashed the bed hard.
My cousin was alone, and it would be enough for him to coax her alone. It would be useless for him to keep Xie Yao and her daughter. It would be better if they left, so as not to be disgusting, but he couldn't swallow this! Xie Yao is the daughter of the official family, and life will not be too hard for him to live together, but he has no beautiful wife!
He was so angry that his mind suddenly appeared in his mind that Xie Lanyin's beautiful face, which was already charming at such a young age, and his delicate "uncle" sounded like a delicate "uncle".
Fang Ze's eyes gradually calmed down, and he raised his hand and touched his chin.
Since the Jiang family has served as Xie Yao’s backing, don’t blame him for using the people there to vent the fire!
