Chapter 357

Xu Boyi secretly guessed the reason behind Tian Miaowen's question and replied, "Yes! That day, I saw Xue's mother crying to the passersby on the street. I felt sorry for her and directed her to seek help from Li Qiuchi. "

The bead curtain swayed gently with the breeze in the mountains. The beautiful face behind the bead curtain was somewhat blurred, but the pair of sharp eyes were like two swords, piercing through the bead curtain and fixating on Xu Boyi. Xu Boyi's eyelids drooped, but he could still feel the piercing stare on his forehead.

After a while, Tian Miaowen's faint smile came from behind the bead curtain, "So that's how it is. Ye Xiaotian is the Elementary Scholar personally appointed by Zhang Duo in Tongren, and can be considered his disciple. As for the relationship between Zhang Duo and my Tian household, I believe you are aware of it. Since Zhang Duo sent a letter, I have to give him face. "

Xu Boyi was secretly vexed, "This Ye Xiaotian, no matter where he goes, he always manages to get involved with the big shots there. In Gourd County, he used his connections to intimidate others and made my reputation go down the drain. Now that he's in Shuixi, I thought that since he's in my territory, he would be at my mercy. I didn't expect him to get involved with Zhang Duo. Zhang Duo, that damned fatty, what kind of shitty disciple did he choose? "

Tian Miaowen's clear and elegant voice continued, "Zhang Duo has already investigated this case, and there is more to it than meets the eye. Ye Xiaotian has been wrongly accused. I will inform the Disciplinary Bureau about this matter, and not let them wrongly accuse an innocent person. You don't have to worry about this matter anymore. "

Xu Boyi secretly gritted his teeth and swallowed his anger. His attitude became even more respectful, "Yes! Boyi will naturally follow Miss's orders. "

Tian Miaowen nodded slightly, "Very good! Go back and prepare for the examinations. I value you very much. As long as you can become a High Scholar, I will give you a bright future. "

Xu Boyi bowed, "Yes! I will take my leave! "

He quickly glanced behind the bead curtain, but it was like looking at flowers in the fog. He could only feel the beauty of the face, but could not see anything. Xu Boyi secretly sighed and thought to himself, "With my character and appearance, this little woman who has been a widow for three times is still not tempted by my appearance? Up until now, I have not been able to see her behind the curtain. How can I tempt her? "

As Xu Boyi thought about it, he did not dare to show the slightest bit of impulsiveness in his speech or attitude, so as to avoid arousing Miss Tian's disgust. Instead, he became more and more like a gentleman, politely bidding farewell to Tian Miaowen and stepping out.

Behind the bead curtain, there were two round chairs against the wall. A white-robed young master sat on one of the chairs. If Xu Boyi was pretending to be cool and unrestrained, then this white-robed young master was truly as gentle as jade. His ink-dyed hair was tied into a bun with a jade hairpin, making him look like an immortal.

He played with a small golden fan in his hand, and after a long silence, he suddenly laughed, "This Xu Boyi is not a good person. He already has a good wife, but he covets Zhan Ning 'er's family background and deliberately hid the fact that he is married. On one hand, he tried to please Zhan Ning' er, but on the other hand, he threatened his wife to divorce him. Later, he was exposed and his reputation was ruined, so he had to leave Hulu County. His character is very despicable. "

Tian Miaowen lightly said, "Our Tian family wants to rebuild our family, so we must not stick to one pattern. Even a dog has its uses. "

The man in white laughed and stood up from the chair. He smiled and said, "I just received news that Yang Yinglong is coming to Shuixi. It's really strange. He has always been watching his own territory, but I don't know his purpose for coming to Shuixi this time."

Tian Miaowen said, "Big brother, don't you always like to be in conflict with him? It's a pity that he always stays in Bozhou and refuses to leave. If you go to his territory and compete with him for the limelight, you will be asking for trouble. Now that he has come to Shuixi, isn't it exactly what you want? "

The man in white coughed lightly and said, "Hey! That was when I was young. Do you think big brother is still an insensible young man? If our Tian family wants to rise again, I always feel that this matter will fall on Yang Yinglong, so I can't ignore his every move. "

Tian Miaowen lightly said, "You are in charge of external affairs, and I am in charge of internal affairs. This is your business, I don't care."

The man in white said, "Little sister …"

Tian Miaowen lightly brushed her sleeves and stood up, saying, "I'm tired."

The man in white sighed helplessly and said, "Then rest well." He reached out to brush aside the bead curtain and quietly walked out.

A gust of wind blew and the wind chimes in the corridor …

…

Mama Xue walked into the room with a bowl of rice. Shuiwu, who was lying on the bed in a daze, saw her enter and immediately turned around. There is no sorrow greater than a dead heart. Shuiwu was unfortunate to have a father who only cared about profit, a mother who was blinded by anger, and a fiancé who was so shameless. She really wanted to die as soon as possible.

Mama Xue walked to the side of the bed and said, "Wu 'er, eat something."

Shuiwu did not say a word, but tears quietly flowed down her cheeks and wet the pillow towel.

Mama Xue placed the bowl on the table beside the bed and sat down on the edge of the bed. She lightly sighed and said, "You little girl, why can't you get over it? That child Xiaofeng's conditions may sound absurd, but you have a pure body and true gold fears no fire. So what if you enter the bridal chamber first? When he knows that you have never done anything wrong to him, he will feel guilty and dote on you even more. You will eventually become his wife, so what's the big deal about giving yourself to him first? "

Shuiwu laughed bitterly and choked with sobs, "Mother? Do you really think this is not a big deal? Do you really think that I am wronged and gave myself to him without a title? Do you really think that he will dote on me even more when he knows that I have never done anything wrong to him, and not look down on our Xue family? "

Mama Xue was astounded, "How can that be? I have also watched that child grow up. He is pure in nature, how can he do something like using and then abandoning? "

Shuiwu sighed faintly and said no more. A girl's dignity was worthless in her mother's eyes. She really had nothing to say to her mother now. Mama Xue picked up the bowl again and said, "You haven't eaten for two days. Why are you so stubborn? Get up and eat something."

Shuiwu did not even turn her head as she said coldly, "I'm not eating! Mother, just be kind and let me die! "

Mother Xue was enraged. She slammed the bowl hard on the table and said fiercely, "Why are you so obsessed with protecting that Ye guy? Fine! I won't stop you if you want to die! Even if you die, I will make that Ye pay for your father's death! "

Shuiwu sat up and glared at her mother. "Mother! Are you crazy? Tell me, who is your enemy? "

Mama Xue was stunned by her daughter's question. She asked blankly, "Who is my enemy?"

"Of course it's Ye Xiaotian!"

A voice suddenly came from the door. Xie Chuanfeng walked in with a smile. Mama Xue came to a realization and said, "Right! Ye Xiaotian is our family's greatest enemy! If it wasn't for him, your father wouldn't have died! If it wasn't for him, your father wouldn't have died … "

She repeated the answer several times, as if she was afraid of forgetting it again.

Xie Chuanfeng glanced at Shuiwu with a smile. Shuiwu turned her head away in a huff.

Xie Chuanfeng was already certain that Shuiwu was unfaithful. Even if her body was still pure, her heart had long belonged to that Ye. The shock he felt when he first saw her and the warmth he felt when he was young were all swept away. At this moment, there was only jealousy and hatred in his heart.

This woman was no longer worthy of his cherishing. She was only worthy of being trampled and abused. This was what she deserved for betraying him! As for the humiliation that Ye Xiaotian had inflicted on him, he would definitely wash it away. He was a man, a steward of the Tian Estate. How could he tolerate someone who made him a cuckold living in this world?

Xie Chuanfeng gently helped Mama Xue up and said gently, "Mother-in-law, Xiao Wu was just muddle-headed for a moment. Please don't be angry. That Ye guy has already come to Guiyang City. Hehe, he actually came to Guiyang to take the imperial examination. Don't worry, once he shows up, the authorities will arrest him and take revenge for Father-in-law! "

"Brother Xiaotian came to Guiyang?"

Shuiwu was shocked. She suddenly turned her head and saw Xie Chuanfeng supporting Xue Feng as they walked out slowly. She swallowed the words that were at the tip of her tongue. She knew that even if she asked, Xie Chuanfeng wouldn't tell her anything. After staring blankly for a while, Shuiwu's gaze fell on the table. She suddenly picked up her bowl …

…

Ye Xiaotian accompanied Mao Wenzhi, who had just recovered from a serious illness, as they slowly walked through the forest. Ever since he came to Guizhou, it was not the first time he saw the scenery of a city within a city and a city within a mountain. Walking in the forest, it was as if he was not walking in the city, but walking in the wilderness. It was a wonderful feeling.

A Big Man and Fuwa followed behind them. It was rare for them to be brought out by Ye Xiaotian. The two fellows were very happy. After a while, they impatiently followed behind them. A Big Man jumped and climbed up a towering tree. Fuwa occasionally grabbed a few bamboo leaves and chewed on them. Then he eagerly chased after Xiao Tian.

Ye Xiaotian said, "How is it? Have you recovered?"

Mao Wenzhi said, "En! My fever is gone. It's just that my legs are shaking. I don't have any strength. "

Ye Xiaotian laughed, "Nonsense. For the past two days, your fever made you talk nonsense. Illness comes like a landslide and goes away like spinning silk. You just need to rest for a few days and you will be full of energy."

Mao Wenzhi said, "En! Big Brother, I … I feel like running again. "

Ye Xiaotian helplessly stopped and said, "Go, go, I will wait for you here."

"Yes!"

Mao Wenzhi answered and ran a few steps away while clutching his stomach. Suddenly, he stopped and plucked a few large leaves from the bushes before diving into the bushes.

Ye Xiaotian stood there for a while but did not see Mao Wenzhi coming back. He looked up and there was only a small path in front of him. He was not worried that Mao Wenzhi would not be able to find him. He walked forward. Just when he turned a corner, he suddenly came face to face with a little girl with a green headscarf on her head and a bamboo basket on her back. Her face was as red as an apple.

Ye Xiaotian stared at her, "Pear girl?"

When Xia Yingying saw Ye Xiaotian's appearance, her face turned pale. The mushrooms in her hands fell to the ground. She stammered, "You, you, you … ghost, ghost … ghost …"
