The old lady and the eldest lady saw that Xu Xi's expression kept changing, and finally showed a relaxed expression and turned to look at them.

The eldest lady quickly asked: "What's wrong? What did you think of?"

The old lady also stared at Xu Xi closely.

Xu Xi is not someone who likes to hide her words in her heart. Although her conjecture is just a guess, she will not hide it in her heart and say nothing.

If they don't say it out, how can they keep the two of them on guard? Just now the old lady promised the Wei family to take her back to the Wei Mansion.

She looked at the two of them with a serious expression: "Old madam, eldest aunt, do you think the second madam is eager to take me back to my parents' home, does she want to turn me into a Wei family member?"

"What?" The two of them didn't understand the meaning of Xu Xi's words at first. However, after being stunned for a while, the eldest lady's expression suddenly changed.

She grabbed Xu Xi's hand and said urgently: "Sister Xi, you can't go to the Wei Mansion with her. No, you should just ask for leave and not go to the academy during this period. I don't trust you leaving my sight. Anyway, your uncle

She will be back soon. When the truth comes out, I will make her unable to fight back. She just needs to be patient for a few days."

The old lady was old and her brain was slow. Seeing that the old lady was so excited, she knew something was wrong, but she couldn't figure out the reason.

She couldn't help but said anxiously: "Tell me what is going on. Don't make me anxious."

The eldest lady then turned around and looked at her, excitedly: "Mother, do you think that if the Wei family brings Sister Xi to the Wei Mansion, the young master of the Wei Mansion will directly taint her innocence, and use this to blackmail us into taking Xi?

If my sister marries into the Wei family, what will happen to us? For the sake of Sister Xi, do we have to swallow this breath back in our stomachs and never be able to pursue the Wei family's crimes again? She, she..."

She shed tears as she spoke: "She took away my daughter and threw her into the countryside, hoping to use her own son to occupy the position of the prince of the Hou family. In the end, I can't hold her accountable, so I can only suffer the consequences of being dumb."

, maybe for the sake of Sister Xi’s life, her son must be put in power. Why is she so ruthless in her methods and so vicious in her heart? I hate her so much, I can’t wait to kill her.”

As she spoke, she covered her mouth with her handkerchief and started crying.

Only then did the old lady understand the secret, and she was so angry that she trembled all over: "God, why was I so blind back then that I allowed such a person to enter the Zhao family!"

She grabbed Xu Xi's hand and said gratefully with tears in her eyes: "Fortunately, our Sister Xi is smart and saw through her trick. Otherwise..." Thinking of this, she shed tears, "How will your aunt live?"

." He took out his handkerchief and wiped his tears.

Xu Xi saw the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law crying together, so she had no choice but to let them vent.

When they were almost done crying, she asked: "Do you think she will find anything?"

"What?" The cries of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law stopped suddenly, and they both raised their tearful eyes and looked at Xu Xi.

The eldest lady's face turned pale as she thought about the consequences: "No, it can't be?" She wiped away her tears and stood up, "No, I have to ask someone to inquire and see what happened to her."

She was about to step out, but she was worried about Xu Xi. She lowered her head and said to Xu Xi: "Promise me to stay in the house and don't go anywhere, lest the Wei family will jump over the wall and let the Wei family stain your innocence."

Xu Xi stood up and waved her hands quickly: "No, in this case, it is just a warning. Maybe the second lady didn't find anything wrong and just wanted to solve the problem as soon as possible? If I suddenly stopped going to the academy, wouldn't it be more likely to arouse her suspicion? And she made excuses

I have nothing to do at home, and you want to take me to the Wei Mansion, how can you refuse?"

"Why don't I live in the academy directly?" she said. "No matter how many schemes the second lady has, she doesn't dare to rush to the academy to plot against me. It just so happens that I have Mrs. Xiao as an excuse, so it won't be weird if I don't go home.

I usually have Mrs. Xiao's people escort me from the Silver Building to the Academy. It will be fine. Don't worry. If you are really worried, you can also send people from the Hou Mansion to stay at the gates of the Academy and the Silver Building to stop me when I go in and out.

During this journey, escort me secretly."

The eldest lady thought about it, then turned to look at the old lady: "Mother, what do you think?" With this question, she already felt that what Xu Xi said made sense.

The old lady nodded: "Just listen to Sister Xi."

Now she felt that despite her young age, Xu Xi was smarter than both her and the eldest lady. She was thoughtful and perceptive. Otherwise, they would not have discovered Wei's evil intentions.

The eldest lady's idea was really bad; Xu Xi's idea was well thought out, and it protected her safety without arousing suspicion. It was much better than the eldest lady's idea.

This period of time is the most critical. If they keep Xu Xi in the house, they can't tie it to their waistband all the time. Once they make an oversight and someone exploits the loophole, it will be too late to regret it.

Mrs. Wei is as smart as a sieve, and her methods are really hard to detect. You never know when she will do something wrong. Let Xu Xi stay in the academy, even if Mrs. Wei is full of tricks, she can't do anything.

Nothing could be more secure.

The eldest lady said to Xu Xi: "Then you pack your things when you go back. Go to the academy tomorrow morning and don't come back. Then tell Mrs. Xiao to leave you to work. But for safety, you can reveal some things about the house to Mrs. Xiao.

She seeks asylum. Safety comes first. When the time comes, I will also send someone to protect you secretly."

"Yeah, okay." Xu Xi nodded.

…

The Wei family, as soon as they left the main courtyard door, ordered Nanny Li: "Go and check to see if the little girl was really sent back tonight by the guards of the Zhennan Palace."

After Mrs. Wei returned to the main courtyard of the second room and sat down, Nanny Li came back and reported: "Madam, they are indeed the guards of Zhennan Palace. Their clothes have the logo of Zhennan Palace embroidered on them. I guess these are not the fifth girls."

It can be forged."

Mrs. Wei sneered: "She knows how to sneak into the camp. She has only been back for a few days and she is already fawning over noble people."

Aunt Li didn't dare to say anything.

"Go and find the master, and tell her that I have something urgent to do to see her." Mrs. Wei pointed to a little maid.

The little maid hurried out.

After a long time, Zhao Yuanliang came back, and his clothes were full of the smell of powder.

He suppressed his impatience and asked, "It's so late, what do you want from me?"

Wei sneered: "What's the matter? I want to talk to you and make your sweetheart unhappy?"

Zhao Yuanliang's impatience finally showed on his face: "Stop talking about this. If nothing happens, I'll leave." As he said that, he stood up again.

Zhao Yuanliang and Wei, you can't stand me, I can't stand you. He rarely stays at Wei's place, and Wei can't do anything to him, and doesn't want to win back his heart. The two of them just kept a cold war, and when they met
