"Elder brother." Xie Xuan suddenly held onto Xie Heng's hand, raised his head, and said with eyes filled with thick ink, "I'm not a monster!"

Xie Heng had also heard that ever since he was born, no matter how harsh Second Madame Xie was on him, no matter how many injuries he suffered, his body would quickly recover, like a demon.

If not for this, the Old Mistress would never have closed her eyes to Second Madame Xie's actions.

Although they were both young masters of Xie Family, their circumstances were completely different. Xie Heng had never been sad for his second cousin, but he had never been close with her either.

Xie Heng said with a stern expression. "You are my, Xie Heng's, third brother, so you are naturally not a monster."

But now, it was different. Since he was the sworn brother he had, there was no reason for others to bully him.

Xie Xuan looked at him for a long time before realizing that he had lost control of himself. He slowly let go of his hands, and his expression was still gloomy.

"You don't believe me?"

Xie Heng sprinkled medicinal powder on the youth's wound, his movements not gentle, "Is it painful?"

Xie Xuan took a deep breath, "Why don't you give it a try yourself, brother?"

"It's fine if it hurts. If you know it hurts, it's only because you know it's cold. It can only heal injuries faster than others. When it comes to a good matter that others can't even plead for, you're actually unhappy?"

Xie Heng helped to bandage his wound, after seeing that it was ugly and fluffy, he couldn't help but laugh: "This will do."

In any case, no one else could see.

Xie Xuan lowered his head to look at the white cloth wrapped around his body as he emotionlessly put on his clothes.

"Enough."

Xie Heng patted his other shoulder, and laughed: "You don't allow anyone else to get close to you, if you want to look, don't you let the Jiu help wrap it up for you."

"Men and women shouldn't be too intimate with each other." Xie Xuan looked at him, and said with heavy eyes: "Elder Brother, don't forget, she is Xiaowu's fiancée."

Xie Heng's expression slightly froze, and then, she raised her hand to ruthlessly smack Third Young Master's head, "It's not like I smashed my brain, forget about it!"

Xie Xuan did not say a word, and quietly looked at Xie Heng.

The room suddenly quieted down. The youth's smile faded as he asked, "What do you take me for by saying this?"

Xie Xuan hoarsely said, "Wen Jiu, she …"

"Wen Jiu has just turned fifteen this year, so which normal family's young lady isn't busy picking a husband to seduce? "It seems like it's just her luck …"

Xie Heng narrowed her eyes and looked at him, "She said that she will protect Xiaowu for the rest of her life, and will remain in the Xie Family from now on.

Xie Xuan said in a muffled voice: "She said it herself."

Everyone in the palace called Wen Jiu Young Madame, but if one were to really talk about it, she hadn't even worn her wedding dress, hadn't kowtowed to the heaven and earth, and also entered the Xie Family's family tree. There was no logic in the world that would want a young lady who was in the prime of her youth to serve as a widow for her fiance who passed away prematurely.

Available... Wen Jiu was the one who said he would guard the Xie Family.

Xie Heng replied: "Yes, what she said is true. But when she was fifteen she thought it was all right to be at home, what about twenty-five and thirty-five? At that time, both of us will be out in the open, while the other wives and Young Madame will be around our knees. She is the only one with a cold bed, so how can we spend the long night together? "

Xie Xuan was suddenly speechless.

"Alright, stop thinking about it." Xie Heng pulled up the embroidered blanket from the bed and covered the young man's body. With a light smile, he said, "If you thought about this earlier, how would I continue to be your brother?"

The blanket forced Xie Xuan to lie down on his back, and accidentally pulled on his wounds.

The corners of his mouth curled up in a smile as he looked down at Xiao Chen condescendingly, "We will raise both of her like a little girl and slowly watch on. In the future, if there is a talented youth that can enter our eyes, Grandmother will decide."

Before waiting for Third Young Master to speak, Xie Heng added, "If it really doesn't work, then we can also marry into our Xie Family. Don't you think that you'll be guarding us for the rest of your life? "

Xie Xuan looked at him with a strange expression. Just as he was about to speak, he heard Xie Heng say, "Stop, this matter shall end here." If you keep up the nonsense, I will definitely beat you! "

He raised his hand, threatening.

Xie Xuan simply closed his eyes and did not look at him anymore, gradually calming his breathing.

"Jiu definitely doesn't know. It's best if you keep your eyes open when you're not speaking!"

Xie Heng turned around and walked out, and said: "Such a silly girl, you're too long-winded!"

Xie Xuan was speechless for a moment.

Before the door closed, only the young man outside said, "Even if you recovered, you should at least lie down for two more days. Otherwise, the one at the top would think that it was a fake injury."

In the parlour, Doctor Li was puffing his beard and staring at Wen Jiu, "Your foundation is so bad, yet you still dare to mess around, do you think you have a long life?"

Wen Jiu facepalmed, "It shouldn't be that bad."

She had always felt that her health was still quite good. At least, she wouldn't fall when the wind blew, or she would get sick from the rain.

"Am I a doctor, or are you a doctor?"

Doctor Li was depressed by Xie Family and his face darkened. He got up to the side and wrote down three pieces of paper on a square, "Try drinking it in one month according to this recipe, then change it to another recipe."

Wen Jiu, "..."

Had this old gentleman disliked her for a long time?

In just a moment of effort, Jin Er had already walked up to her and thanked her several times.

Before Doctor Li left, he glanced at Wen Jiu, "If you don't properly follow the instructions and drink the medicine, next time, don't ask for a doctor.

"Jin Er." Wen Jiu rubbed his forehead, then called out to the servant girl beside him: "Remember to pay the old sir."

This old man was also very hot-tempered. After reprimanding someone, he didn't even want the medical fee and directly left with the medicine box.

"Ai, this servant will go right away." Jin Er immediately gave chase.

The accumulated snow in front of the courtyard grew thicker and thicker. Wen Jiu carried the warm hand furnace and stared blankly at the snow falling from the sky, his mind spinning: After yesterday's incident, there were only ten female and six male servants left in the attendant, I still have to assign them a whole new round.

I wonder how's it going with the Third Brother? He would not let the doctor see him, nor would he allow the servants to serve him in close proximity.

Could it be that Brother Zhang's words of scolding could stop the pain?

With that in mind, Wen Jiu suddenly thought of the wooden box that Xie Xuan had given her earlier, saying that it was filled with ten thousand taels of gold. Last night, the mansion was in such a mess, he wondered if it was still there.

She jumped up and went back to her room.

When the servant saw her hurried expression, she thought that something big had happened. She hurriedly asked, "What happened to Young Madame?"

"Where was the box last night? The one that the Third Young Master sent over! " Wen Jiu asked while heading inside the house.

"On the couch." The maid quickly handed it to her.

"Not bad." Wen Jiu was only slightly relieved when he held it in his hand.

It was good that he was still here.

All of them were silver, and they were the private money of the future Chief Minister!

Just as she was about to open the door, attendant knocked on the door. "Young Madame, the general is here."
