Chapter 495: Pushing the Blame

On the contrary, Cai Wei was rather surprised. She actually didn’t receive any news!
“Second Lady died just like that?”
Xiao Baoxin thought,”Then how do I die?”
“Pack up and prepare the money. Let’s make a trip.”
No one stopped them. They knew that they had to go. The four maids were busy, like the Four Great Vajras. They surrounded them from all sides before they left the Xie Manor like stars surrounding the moon.
The four maids felt ashamed of this formation. It was too ostentatious, but it was personally set by the master. If one wanted to leave the Xie residence, or even stay in the Xie residence when there were many people, they would have to act like this in order to protect the pregnant Xiao Baoxin.
In the Xie Manor, even if it was Lady Yuan or the housekeeper’s Lady Wang, it was enough for them to bring two maids at most. Xiao Baoxin only had four.
However, it was Xie Xian’s decision, and no one else in the house had any objections. It was obvious that they had already informed him.
Xiao Baoxin had been repulsed in the beginning, but now, he had silently accepted it. At most, he would immediately change his formation after leaving the Xie Manor. He would be more than enough to lose face in his own home.
The Yang family was on the Imperial Street, which was very close to the Imperial City. They were not allowed to build anything privately, let alone build a mourning shed. When a family had a funeral, they would only light a white lantern. As for the mourning shed, it was customary to set it up in the alley outside the backyard.
When Xiao Baoxin arrived at the Yang family, he was not surprised to see the white lantern.
Unexpectedly, the Yang family’s servants saw the expression on her face when she got out of the car. It was almost as if she had seen a ghost.
This made Xiao Baoxin a little suspicious. He kept feeling that something was going to happen, and his eyelids twitched…Yes, the one in her stomach was also making some noise.
‘Mother, Second Xiao died just like that?’I am also very puzzled.
Of course, every single thing she did was courting death. Was he threatening Father Yang because he was afraid that he would die too slowly and too easily? Father Yang had more than 18,600 ways to kill someone silently, alright?
Second Master Xiao was reborn. Why did he feel that it was even worse than his previous life?
For the first time, he felt that his rebirth halo was not that useful. Perhaps it wasn’t a great task that was given to him by the heavens to complete some mission…
Perhaps, it was just a pie falling from the sky, and it would fall on his head at any time?
What great responsibility could Second Master Xiao have for her?
That was not right. At least her father and mother’s marriage had been broken after she was reborn. Her father’s path to becoming an emperor had also been completely shattered. However, it had only been less than two years. She was very functional.
‘Zhen’ was in a mess. He couldn’t figure out if he and Xiao Er were given a great task by the heavens or if they were given a pie and a trap by the heavens.
Xiao Baoxin couldn’t care so much at the moment, and it was impossible for her to pay attention to her old son’s thoughts at all times. The Yang family’s servants invited her into the residence, and someone else reported it to them. Unexpectedly, the person who came out to see her was neither the concubine of the family head, Lan Ying, nor the old madam of the Yang family, but Yang Shao.
He was dressed in plain clothes, tall, handsome, and high-spirited. He did not have the slightest bit of sadness or sadness. For a person who had lost his wife, he seemed too calm and heartless.
However, he was quite frank.
It was like a lifetime ago when they met again.
“Lady Xiao.” “Please come in,” Yang Shao said.
Xiao Baoxin was slightly hesitant, but he still followed him in. Yang Shao did not bring her to the mourning shed. Instead, he went to the reception room of the main house. When she sat down, two maids served her a cup of hot tea.
“Lady Xiao is pregnant. Don’t you know that you can’t drink tea?””Why don’t you go down and get a cup of hot water?” Yang Shao said coldly.”
“No need.” Xiao Baoxin said indifferently.
“Second Mother, how did you die?”
Yang Shao pondered for a while and did not look at her.”The coffin is parked in the alley outside the backyard. Since you are pregnant, it is inconvenient for you to go there.”
He explained to her why he did not bring him to the spirit shed. It had to be said that he had handled it very well.
Xiao Baoxin really didn’t have the need to meet him, nor did he have the intention to.
The two of them were not that friendly.
“Actually, I’m not very clear about the specifics. Recently, there have been many matters. Fortunately, the Emperor has entrusted me with an important task, so I took over the garrison of Stone City. There are many things that need to be dealt with urgently. Basically, I live in Stone City, and my family is handed over to Lan Ying…My mother sprained her waist previously and has been taking care of it all this time. She has never taken care of anything. Where is Second Lady…”
“Ever since she had a miscarriage, her body hasn’t been feeling very comfortable. She’s also recuperating. It’s just that I came back yesterday and heard that she… His body was bleeding non-stop, and he wasn’t clean. She suddenly bled out yesterday- -by the time I got back, she was already gone.”
Yang Shao had explained the entire incident and cleared all the relevant responsibilities.
After responding to Xie Xian’s words, he had already thrown the blame away before it could be placed on him.
Xiao Baoxin was too lazy to argue with him. With Xiao Jing ‘ai’s actions, she would die sooner or later. Only she herself could not see it.
“Where’s Second Aunt? Why isn’t she here?”
Xiao Baoxin finally remembered what was wrong. He felt his teeth ache after realizing it.
Normally, when a daughter died, the mother would have to take care of her in-laws. Even if she was a stepmother, she had to put on a good show. However, if it were not for the white banner hanging in the courtyard and the servants changing into mourning clothes, she would not have been able to tell that she was a funeral family. The atmosphere was different, without the slightest bit of sadness. There was no woman who came forward to take charge.
Yang Shao’s face was rather awkward, but he finally showed an expression of ease.
“.. Father-in-law seemed to be…If you have any objections…”
Xiao Baoxin raised his eyebrows in realization.
No wonder the Yang family’s servants ‘eyes almost fell out when they saw her. Now she finally knew that it must have been a big scene yesterday that scared the Yang family’s servants.
Therefore, she was like a rare object when he saw her.
Of course, this was Xiao Baoxin’s idea.
The Yang family’s servants were actually more straightforward. They were afraid that this grandaunt would vent her anger on behalf of the Xiao family and come to smash the Yang family!
Therefore, he was scared out of his wits and went to look for Yang Shao.
“In that case, I’ll take my leave first.”After saying half a sentence, Xiao Baoxin stood up and left.
Yang Shao was stunned for a moment and quickly followed up,”I’ll send the eldest lady out–”
“Pardon me for being honest, but Second Mother is dead, but I am your sister-in-law. Even if I don’t call you sister-in-law, I should call you Madam Xiao. It would be beneath beneath his status as a general if he were to call her Big Lady again.””It’s better to change it,” Xiao Baoxin said indifferently.”
“There’s no need to send me off.”
Without even turning their heads, the four maids automatically formed a square formation again. Only five people walked out of the majestic feeling.
Yang Shao couldn’t even see Xiao Baoxin’s figure clearly, so these maids blocked him tightly..
