Chapter 574: 574

574 Luring the Snake Out of the Cave (2)

The two of them rarely sat together and talked. This was the first time they had mentioned Feng Manman.

Without waiting for him to speak, Yuan Yuwan continued, “I heard that Young General chose it. This means that Young General has good taste.”

Xiao Qirui was stunned. “She said that I chose it?”

He had indeed bought a hairpin, but that hairpin was still in his study.

Yuan Yuwan picked up her teacup and took a sip. “Yes, I made some snacks today and asked a maidservant to send them to her. This is her gift in return.”

She would repay a few snacks with a jade hairpin? She was too rich.

Xiao Qirui finally came back to his senses from the joy of Yuan Yuwan inviting him to dinner. He pursed his lips and stood up. “I still have something to deal with in the study. I… I’ll come over later.”

Afraid that Yuan Yuwan would misunderstand, he explained, “I’ll sleep on the floor. You’re in charge of the house now. It won’t be good if I don’t come.”

Yuan Yuwan nodded and didn’t refuse.

As soon as Xiao Qirui left, You Bai entered and said happily, “Young Master said that he’ll come over later.”

“I know.” Yuan Yuwan took off the jade hairpin and placed it in front of the dressing table. “Fetch water for me to take a shower.”

“Alright.” You Bai instructed the servants outside. She went forward and helped Yuan Yuwan put down her bun. She sighed and said, “Miss, you can’t be so silly in the future. How can you push your husband into another woman’s room? It should be like today.”

If she had known that Madam Song could persuade her young lady, she wouldn’t have worried for so long.

Yuan Yuwan glanced at her and did not explain that she had other intentions. Otherwise, this girl would nag at her again.

On the other side, as soon as Xiao Qirui left the Splendid Courtyard, he asked Xiao Li to investigate what had happened during the day.

The family heads didn’t inquire much, but that didn’t mean that they really didn’t know anything about the backyard. It was just that they rarely asked about anything that wasn’t important.

If they really wanted to investigate, there was really no way to hide it from them.

After a while, Xiao Li returned and told him about Shen Yijia’s visit to the residence during the day and what Feng Manman had said in return with a jade hairpin.

As for what Shen Yijia and Yuan Yuwan had said, no one knew. At that time, they did not leave anyone to serve them.

Xiao Qirui frowned. Feng Manman always told him that she hoped that he and Yuan Yuwan could resolve the misunderstanding, but…

“Young Master, I’ve asked around. People said that you were the one who instructed the butler to buy the jewelry in Concubine Feng’s room.” Xiao Li admired this Young Madam who had just entered the house. This time, Young Master should be able to tell that Concubine Feng was the kind of person who acted one way in front of others and another way behind their backs.

At this moment, Xiao Qirui also remembered this matter. That day, he heard a few maidservants discussing behind his back that Feng Manman was so down and out that she didn’t even have any decent jewelry.

This kind of maidservant, who did not even take her master seriously, was naturally sold by him. After that, he even instructed the steward to buy something and send it to the Magnolia Courtyard.

Feng Manman must have mistakenly thought that he had chosen it himself.

Xiao Li couldn’t hear his thoughts. Otherwise, he would have vomited blood from anger. He sighed again. His young master was really hopeless.

After all, she had saved his life. Yuan Yuwan didn’t expect Xiao Qirui to suspect Feng Manman so easily. However, once the seed was planted, it would eventually germinate.

Moreover, she was mainly doing this for Feng Manman to see. Reminding Xiao Qirui was just a bonus.

Shen Yijia did not expect that her original intention in telling Yuan Yuwan those things was to tell her to be careful of Feng Manman. In the end, she did the opposite and deliberately angered Feng Manman, wanting to lure her out.

Indeed, Feng Manman was blinded by envy and couldn’t think too much about it. It was easy for her to give herself away.

However, Yuan Yuwan was in even more danger.

Shen Yijia lay on the bed and told Song Jingchen about the Xiao family.

“General Xiao knows what he’s doing.” Song Jingchen knew that she was feeling indignant for Yuan Yuwan. He felt sour, but he still had to comfort her.

“I know. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have arranged for two maidservants who know martial arts to go to Sister Yuwan’s place.” Shen Yijia puffed up her cheeks and rolled into Song Jingchen’s arms. “I even asked Mo Yuan to go to Feng Manman’s room to see if she could find the antidote. I didn’t expect her to hide it so well. She couldn’t find it at all.”

When she pulled Feng Manman, she even took the opportunity to check her pulse. Just as Mo Yuan had said, when the Heart-Devouring Poison didn’t act up, she was no different from an ordinary person. She couldn’t find out at all.

“She would naturally bring the life-saving medicine with her.” Song Jingchen knew that Shen Yijia wanted to help, so he didn’t discourage her.

He rubbed her hair and said softly, “General Xiao is watching over Feng Manman. Don’t worry. Go to sleep.”
