"Madam, the winter snow has arrived at Luomei Courtyard."

A maid's voice came from the doorway. Su Yingxue nodded, and Xia Zhi immediately had someone come in.

When Dongxue arrived, she gave Su Yingxue a maid's salute, her expression somewhat unpleasant.

"What is it?"

Su Yingxue looked at her, her eyes remaining unchanged.

"This servant has something to inform the Second Madam."

As she spoke, she glanced outside the door, and Qiuye went forward to close it.

Dongxue then spoke up: "The First Madam wants to poison you, Second Madam, saying she wants to take your life."

"Oh?"

Su Yingxue smiled faintly: "Very well."

"what?"

Dongxue exclaimed in disbelief, "Second Madam, didn't you hear me clearly? First Madam wanted to poison you..."

Who would react this way after knowing that someone is going to poison them?

This is not normal at all.

"I heard you clearly, I understand."

Su Yingxue glanced at Qiuye beside her, and Qiuye immediately understood, taking out ten taels of silver and handing it to Dongxue.

"Thank you for delivering the message. If the message is true, the lady will reward you handsomely."

Even after Dongxue came out, he was still completely bewildered.

I didn't expect Su Yingxue to react this way.

Instead of making a fuss, they seemed quite excited.

She weighed the heavy silver in her hand and didn't think about it anymore.

Anyway, she has already delivered the message.

As for what she wants to do, that's none of her business.

inside the house.

Xia Zhi asked curiously, "Madam, what do you plan to do?"

"What's the need for that? Oh, by the way, please invite the second young master to my room for dinner tomorrow."

"Yes."

The two maids exchanged a glance, wondering what their mistress was up to.

When Xie Huaixuan learned that Su Yingxue had invited him to her room for dinner, a knowing smile appeared on his lips.

"I knew it. She had already fallen for me long ago. She was just pretending to be high and mighty all this time, but she actually wanted to get back together with me a long time ago."

"As expected, she still has feelings for me, and she can never let go of me, no matter what."

Xie Huaixuan felt increasingly charming as he thought about it, and his face was full of smiles.

"Yes, young master, Madam must care about you. Otherwise, why would she invite you over for a meal? She probably feels she has neglected you during this time and wants to apologize to you."

After learning about this, Liu Ying was also very happy.

If things continue like this, our young master will soon be able to achieve great things.

Although it's been a year of silence, it's good that things were finally accomplished.

"Then go and pick out a decent outfit, and have dinner in her room tomorrow."

"yes!"

The next day, Su Zhirou was so excited to copy the book after learning that Dong Rong had taken care of things.

You despicable person.

I want to fight her.

This will send her to hell!

Xie Huaixuan arrived at Su Yingxue's room early, dressed in a flamboyant manner, looking just like a peacock spreading its tail feathers.

When I saw Su Yingxue's otherworldly and stunningly beautiful face, I was still a little shocked.

I don't know if it's because I've gotten used to looking at her, but now I think Su Yingxue's face is really nice.

She even has a kind of beauty that surpasses Su Zhirou's.

However, Xie Huaixuan was good at hiding his emotions. When he realized that his thoughts were not right, he immediately gave up the idea.

His expression remained gentle: "My wife invited me to dinner, is there something you want to tell your husband?"

"sit."

Su Yingxue had a gentle smile and exuded an air of elegance in every gesture.

Xie Huaixuan was somewhat surprised to see Su Yingxue like this for a long time, but he quickly recovered.

Seeing that most of the dishes on the table were his favorites, he became even more certain of Su Yingxue's feelings for him.

"I have indeed made things difficult for you during this time, but it is all because I am uneasy. You know how I feel about you, and I am very afraid of losing you. I am really, really afraid. If you really leave me, I will be heartbroken. That is why I pushed you away a little."

"Given my husband's ambiguous relationship with my sister-in-law, I really don't know how to face my husband..."

Su Yingxue's face was pale, and her eyes held a hint of helplessness as she looked at Xie Huaixuan.

Having received a definite answer, Xie Huaixuan spoke gently, "What nonsense are you talking about? I have nothing to do with my sister-in-law. The person in my heart has always been you."

"Besides, you are my wife. Who else could I love but you?"

"If I didn't like you, I would have divorced you long ago. Why would I keep you around and try so hard to please you?"

As Xie Huaixuan spoke, his phoenix eyes gazed affectionately at the young woman before him.

Anyone who didn't know better would really think he was deeply in love with her.

Su Yingxue smiled and nodded gently: "In that case, husband, let's make up."

"Let's not fight anymore, okay?"

"sure!"

Xie Huaixuan had worked so hard for so long, and finally saw the light at the end of the tunnel. He was overjoyed.

Su Yingxue raised her hand: "Husband, please eat. These are all your favorite dishes."

"it is good."

Xie Huaixuan nodded and was about to pick up some food when Xia Zhi spoke up: "Madam, Young Master, it's not safe at home right now. Shouldn't we test it before using it?"

"What's unsafe about this residence?"

Xie Huaixuan frowned: "This is the Duke's mansion!"

He's the second young master; no one dares to harm him.

Not to mention poisoning Su Yingxue's food.

"Let's get it checked. If anything happens to my husband, I don't want to live anymore."

Upon hearing this, Xie Huaixuan nodded slightly, "Very well, since Madam has spoken, let's examine it."

Although Xie Huaixuan knew there was no way anything would happen, their relationship as a couple had finally improved, and there was no need to argue over such a small matter.

After performing the summer solstice ritual, he took the prepared silver needles and examined them one by one.

Xie Huaixuan, seeing that the test results were satisfactory, was about to say something when he was surprised to find that the stir-fried bamboo shoots in front of him had a problem.

The silver needles turned black at a visible speed, and Xie Huaixuan's expression changed drastically: "Who poisoned them?!"

Su Yingxue immediately exclaimed in alarm, "Quickly investigate! See who has the audacity to harm my husband!"

These words carried a strong sense of displeasure, but her protective demeanor dispelled Xie Huaixuan's concerns.

It couldn't have been Su Yingxue who directed and acted in it all.

She didn't need to do that at all.

Thinking this, Xie Huaixuan's expression grew increasingly grim.

"yes!"

The two maids immediately ordered people to investigate, and soon a maid was brought over.

"Madam, young master, this maid was sneaking around the stove. Just now she was about to leave the courtyard to throw something away, so I led some people to catch her. We found that she was a stranger."

Upon hearing this, Xia Zhi immediately ordered someone to lift her face up.

Xie Huaixuan's already furrowed brows tightened even more, and he suddenly stood up.

"It's you?!"

Su Yingxue frowned deeply: "Who are you? Does your husband know her?"

Xie Huaixuan snapped out of his daze and explained, "I don't recognize him, he just looks familiar."

When the maid realized that her plan had been exposed, she tried to swallow poison, but was stopped by the guards who were protecting Su Yingxue in the shadows.

"You want to die? Dream on!"

Xia Zhi kicked the maid, then suddenly recognized her: "Madam, this looks like the First Madam's dowry maid..."

"Yes, this seems to be from the First Madam's courtyard!" Akiha recognized the person as well.

Su Yingxue's face turned pale: "How could this be? How could my sister possibly harm me?"

Seeing her slumped to the ground, looking utterly dejected, Xie Huaixuan's heart pounded.

Could it be that Su Yingxue wants to kill Su Zhirou because I've been neglecting her lately?
