Chapter 207
On the other side, Xiao Heng also returned to his yard.
Although Lin Yuan was here now, he was reluctant to come back, but no matter what, he had to change his clothes before going to the army.
In the yard, several maids were cleaning.
I can't see anything unusual.
Xiao Heng walked to the study on his own, but unexpectedly, he was stopped halfway.
"General! Go and see my lady quickly! My lady has locked herself in the house since last night and has not come out!"
The maid in front of him looked familiar, Xiao Heng recognized her, her name was Xiaohuan. She is Lin Yuan's dowry maid.
After hearing these words, Xiao Heng raised his eyes and looked towards the house, but because what happened last night was too ridiculous, and he was angry with Qiao Nian again today, he naturally had no time to pay attention to her now. Lin Yuan.
He just said coldly, "She will come out when she wants to."
Saying that, he was leaving again.
But unexpectedly, a muffled sound suddenly came from the room, "Bang."
The maids sweeping outside the house were all startled, "What's the sound?"
But Xiaohuan seemed to have thought of something, and rushed to the door and exclaimed, "Miss, what are you doing? Open the door, miss! Miss, don't scare me!"
Xiao Heng didn't think anything was wrong at first, but when Xiaohuan shouted, he felt a little uneasy in his heart.
He strode forward, pushed aside the small ring and raised his foot.
The door was kicked open, Xiao Heng strode into the house, and soon saw the figure hanging under the beam.
Immediately startled, he pulled out the dagger from his waist and threw it.
The dagger blade cut through the silk, and Lin Yuan fell down and fell heavily to the ground.
"Cough, cough, cough..."
Perhaps her neck was irritated when she hung herself, and Lin Yuan coughed violently.
Xiaohuan was worried about being seen by outsiders, so she quickly closed the door, and then rushed in front of Lin Yuan, crying, "Miss, what's wrong with you? Why are you so obsessed with it, miss!"
Before Lin Yuan's coughing stopped, tears fell one after another, "I don't have the shame to live anymore, Xiaohuan, help me tell my mother, I don't have the shame to see her again, wuwuwu..." "
The cry was very sad.
Xiao Heng frowned and finally couldn't help but said, "You go out first."
These words were naturally directed at Xiao Huan.
Xiaohuan was a little worried about Lin Yuan, but she still left the house.
The door was closed again.
Lin Yuan and Xiao Heng were the only ones left in the room.
The crying had become much quieter when Xiaohuan left just now, and now there were only low sobs left.
Xiao Heng's eyebrows were indifferent, but he asked in confusion, "Why would you do that?"
Referring to what happened last night.
Lin Yuan spoke while sobbing, "I know that Brother Heng doesn't have me in his heart now, but I'm already married to you, what can I do? I just want to have a child before you kick me out. So that I can keep my position in the Xiao family..."
She answered truthfully, and Xiao Heng could tell that she was telling the truth.
His expression could not help but darken. He thought this matter was ridiculous, but it seemed that in Lin Yuan's view, it was a last resort?
Just listen to Lin Yuan continue to cry, "I don't know why everything was fine before, but after marrying into the Xiao family, Brother Heng suddenly doesn't like me. I'm also very scared... I don't know what to do. …”
In the Hou Mansion, she was the eldest lady held in the palm of everyone's hand.
But once she arrived at the Xiao family, she became a forgotten chess piece.
No, it’s not forgetfulness, but abandonment!
She didn't know how to accept such a big gap, let alone how to deal with it!
She can only use all means to save herself!
Seeing Lin Yuan like this, Xiao Heng still felt a little guilty in his heart.
The truth of what happened in the past remains to be ascertained.
But now it was obvious that he had already convicted her before the truth was revealed.
Thinking of her weak and cowardly appearance in the past, compared with her madness last night.
Xiao Heng suddenly realized that Lin Yuan became like this because of him.
Taking a deep breath, Xiao Heng finally stood up and walked towards Lin Yuan.
He reached out, picked up Lin Yuan from the ground, and walked to the bed.
Lin Yuan was stunned, tears still hanging on her eyelashes.
She thought Xiao Heng had figured something out, or maybe it was because he still had medicinal properties in his body. Could it be that he wanted to have sex with her...
Unexpectedly, after Xiao Heng put her on the bed, he covered her with a quilt, and then said in a cold voice, "No outsiders will know what happened last night."
After all, it was already very late when he came back last night, and most of the servants in the mansion had gone to bed.
Even if Lin Yuan's voice was heard later, he would naturally have the means to suppress the matter.
In short, what happened last night will never reach the ears of the Xiao family's parents.
Lin Yuan just lay on the bed looking at Xiao Heng with tears in her eyes.
Xiao Heng thought of her last cry last night and said again, "I went to see my elder brother last night, you don't have to think about it."
At this point, Xiao Heng didn't know what to say to her anymore.
But it seems that he has always only said words like 'be good' and 'good' to her.
Unlike in the past with Qiao Nian, even if he thought she was a little noisy, he would bring cakes to comfort her.
But now...
For a moment, Xiao Heng's mind was filled with Qiao Nian.
Thinking of the poisonous words that came out of that little mouth this morning, his heart tingled a little.
He didn't understand how he and she had reached this point.
Feeling inexplicably upset, Xiao Heng couldn't say a word, so he turned around and left.
Not long after he left, Xiaohuan came into the room again and called out with concern, "Miss, are you okay?"
Lin Yuan was lying on the bed, staring at the bed beam, with a tear falling from the corner of her eye.
"Well done, Xiao Huan." She spoke softly, with a hint of coldness in her gentle tone.
This move turned retreat into advance, and found a way out of desperate situations. It worked in the end.
Although Xiao Heng never felt pity for her, at least he would help her suppress this matter.
As long as she is still a desirable daughter-in-law in front of Xiao's mother, then there is still hope for everything.
Xiao Huan stood beside the bed and said respectfully, "It's okay, Miss. It's all what a slave should do."
As he spoke, there was a hint of embarrassment on his face, "But, miss, do you still remember that the young master was here this morning?"
Lin Yuan then looked at Xiaohuan with a bit of doubt, "What?"
Xiao He had stopped Xiao Huan to question him this morning, and she knew it.
She also knew that Xiaohuan was sent out to buy the antidote by Xiao He.
After all, Xiaohuan bought the medicine yesterday, and she knew best which one it was.
What's more, how could Xiao He, a useless person, go out and ask for the antidote?
However, Xiao Huan's face became even more ugly, "After I came back, I never had time to tell the lady that when I went to buy the antidote this morning, I was stopped by the second young master of the Qiu family."
The second young master of the Qiu family?
Qiu Yu?
Lin Yuan's face suddenly became serious, "What's that bastard doing to stop you?"
Xiaohuan hesitated, "He, he said he saw me buying medicine for you, Miss. He said he wanted to see you, Miss."
