Chapter 49 You're overthinking it, really.
Tu Jiaojiao had a worried look on her face and held her daughter nervously in her arms.
After hesitating for a while, she whispered, "I also smelled this fragrance on the day Yingying was born."
There was nothing at first, but then Sun Qingqing took the child out to wash him. Suddenly, I heard Yingying crying, and then I smelled a strange fragrance.
I was very worried at the time and wanted to go out to check, but Di'er hadn't been born yet and I was in so much pain that I couldn't even get up.
"It just so happened that when Mrs. Xu said she was going to see the child, I was relieved. I had no idea that she was going out to switch the child."
When Tu Jiaojiao said this, she burst into tears out of self-blame.
"If I had reacted faster and stopped Sun Qingqing from taking the baby away, they wouldn't have had the chance to switch the baby!"
Xie Xiu quickly took out a handkerchief to wipe her tears and comforted her, "You can't think like that. Xu Shi would rather poison the child than switch the baby. If you still had the strength, she would definitely not be polite to you.
If you had gone out and caught her switching the babies, she would have done something even crazier to protect herself!"
Tu Jiaojiao thought so too, but when she thought of Xu's sudden fainting, she couldn't help but say, "She must have been very weak at the time, and she was holding on just to switch the babies. Otherwise, she wouldn't have fainted right after the switch.
If I had gone out at that time, she would definitely not be my opponent given her condition. In the end, it was because I was too careless that I almost hurt Yingying. "
Xie Ying: “…”
Mom, you think too much, really.
Although Xu was weak at the time, she was not so weak as to faint suddenly. If she had not asked Xiangxiang to do something shady, Xu would never have fainted and would not have woken up until the next day when she was in court.
Xie Xiu was outside the delivery room at the time and had no idea what was going on inside.
He said: "This is not your fault alone. It's also my fault for being too careless. This is why Xu and Sun Qingqing took advantage of the situation. So we are all at fault. We can't do this again in the future.
Especially after we go to the capital, we must be more careful. The Xie Mansion in the capital is not like our own home. Although it is not a den of dragons and tigers, it also hides countless hidden arrows and traps.
If we are not careful, we may step into a trap carefully laid by others."
At this point, Xie Xiu suddenly asked Tu Jiaojiao, "Jiaojiao, are you afraid? I brought you into a life-or-death crisis. Will you hate me?"
Tu Jiaojiao suddenly glared at him: "It's good that you know! But since we are husband and wife, don't even think about getting rid of me! If you dare to have other thoughts in the capital and take a concubine, I will show you how I will deal with you!"
She put on a fierce look and said, "I'm not that generous, and don't expect me to learn from those stupid women and take the initiative to arrange women for you.
Also, you're not allowed to keep those concubines outside! Look at those concubines, how many of them are good? Xu poisoned the wife of the principal wife, and to save her daughter, she also poisoned me and my mother, trying to switch our daughter.
And your father..."
She had just said this when Xie Xiu interrupted her: "Don't be fooled by my father's gentle and elegant appearance. He is actually very proud and doesn't like to bow down in front of women.
My biological mother came from a merchant family. Although she was well-educated, beautiful, filial to her parents-in-law, and took care of my father in every possible way, my father still despised her merchant background.
Chen Fang came from a prominent family, but she also had a bad temper. She often put on airs at home and was only superficially respectful to my grandparents.
With her personality, my father would never truly like her. But he was afraid of the power of the Chen family and did not dare to favor a concubine at home. The only concubine he had was because of an accident.
I suspect he also secretly keeps a mistress outside. I heard that Mei Qingchuan is a student he values very much. Since Mei Qingchuan has a mistress, it is not surprising that he, as a teacher, would also have a mistress.
They might just have similar tastes, which is why they appreciate each other."
Tu Jiaojiao looked dazed: "..."
Even if your father is not a good person, is it really okay for you to say this about him behind his back?
Won’t you be struck by lightning?
She looked up at the sky with some fear, and only breathed a sigh of relief after making sure that there was no thunder.
Xie Ying's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she couldn't help but flatter him in her heart: "Daddy is really smart! He even let you guess something like this! They say no one knows a son better than his father, and you know the father better than the son!"
Xie Xiu: “…”
Tu Jiaojiao: “…”
The two looked at each other silently, both speechless.
Which one did Xie Xiu guess correctly?
It was obvious that he heard his daughter's hint and said this on purpose!
The carriage returned to Tujiazhuang unknowingly.
When they got home, they were so hungry that they could only eat something quickly to fill their stomachs.
Xie Ying and Xie Di had already eaten on the way, but there was nothing they could do because they were too young and could not stand the hunger.
Xie Ying could hold back her tears when she was hungry, but Xie Di couldn't.
Whenever he was hungry, he would whimper. If he found that his mother did not feed him in time, he would immediately burst into tears. His crying was so heartbreaking, as if he had suffered a great injustice!
The two of them fed on the way and fell asleep shortly afterwards.
I didn't wake up when I got home.
After Xie Xiu filled his stomach, he specifically told Xie Rou and Xie Tang not to tell anyone about the strange fragrance emanating from Xie Ying.
The two children agreed obediently, and Xie Xiu assigned them homework as a reward.
Fortunately, Xie Rou and Xie Tang were not children from later generations. They were very happy that Xie Xiu personally assigned them homework. They happily ran to the study to complete their homework so that Xie Xiu could check it.
It’s a pity that Xie Ying was fast asleep and missed this wonderful scene, otherwise she would have secretly complained in her heart.
When she woke up, Xie Rou and Xie Tang were still doing their homework.
As soon as Xie Ying woke up, she found something wrong with her body.
She couldn't help but blush secretly: the little baby's body is so ignorant!
Where is my mother? Come and help her solve this problem!
Xie Ying looked around anxiously and found herself lying in the cradle. Tu Jiaojiao and Xie Xiu were not around, and she immediately screamed "Ah ah".
As a result, this shout woke up Xie Di who was standing next to him.
He opened his eyes in confusion, hummed a few times, and then seemed to realize something, and suddenly burst into tears.
Xie Ying looked at him with a smile: Very good, it seems that stupid brother has pooped again!
Tu Jiaojiao and Xie Xiu heard the noise and rushed over quickly. Seeing that both of them were awake, they quickly helped them clean and change their diapers.
Xie Ying found that her silly brother was quite cunning. As soon as he was in Xie Xiu's arms, he stopped crying immediately. Instead, he whimpered and looked at Xie Xiu with tearful eyes, like a little green tea.
But after changing into a clean diaper, he did feel much more comfortable.
Xie Ying lay comfortably in Tu Jiaojiao's arms, listening to her and Xie Xiu discussing Sun Qingqing: "Sun Qingqing seems to have disappeared and has not been found yet. Where do you think she went?"
Xie Ying's gossip radar popped up: Huh? Sun Qingqing is missing?
