Chapter 318: Hidden Edge Revealed
Chapter 318: Hidden Edge Revealed
The mastermind behind the scenes has yet to be identified. Madam Song will be eating vegetarian food and chanting Buddhist scriptures in the small Buddhist temple from now on. Even if she wants to trip up Zhao Fangjin in the future, she will have to find a way to leave the small Buddhist temple first.
Afterwards, Minister Song and the eldest lady made a promise, and Zhao Fangyu brought Zhao Fangmo to visit Zhao Fangjin in the main courtyard, and even Shu Jie'er was brought along by her.
"Is Big Sister having a bad time in the Song family?"
Along the way, Zhao Fangmo looked at the decoration of the Song family, and it didn't seem like the kind of place that only looks good on the outside but is rotten on the inside.
Among the younger sisters in the boudoir, some older sisters are married. After marriage, a woman seems to start a new life. Whether the rest of her life will be bitter or sweet mostly depends on the mood of her husband's family.
Zhao Fangmo's two elder sisters both married into good families, but she saw that both of them were not living happily.
"No matter how good or bad it is, women's lives are always difficult. Being like us is a blessing that many people cannot even ask for."
Whether it was Zhao Fangjin's difficult childbirth or her uncertain future, compared to others, these were lives that many people could not even ask for.
Zhao Fangmo was silent and thoughtful. When he saw Zhao Fangjin, his face was immediately filled with heartache.
The little baby gradually grew up, the red color at birth faded away, and became fair and tender.
Shu Jie'er had no brother in her eyes, only her mother. She was afraid that her actions would hurt Zhao Fangjin, so she obediently stayed on the edge of the bed and covered Zhao Fangmo's hands.
"From now on, it will be good days."
Zhao Fangyu tucked in the quilt for Zhao Fangjin, straightened his hair, and sat on the edge of the bed looking up at the sky.
A huge weight was lifted off his shoulders, and Zhao Fangyu felt as if his entire body was relaxed, as if all the bones in his body had been taken apart and reassembled.
Fortunately, the Song family never discovered that Zhao Fangjin did it on purpose.
Fortunately, Zhao Fangjin was fine.
Now, as long as we can find out who is behind this, the matter will be settled.
One thing after another, every blink of an eyelash seems to be a challenge.
She has a lot of burdens on her shoulders and she still has a long way to go. She doesn't know when or what will be the last straw that breaks the camel's back.
"Big sister, if you hurt yourself again in the future."
"I will add all the money to myself."
To deal with Zhao Fangjin, you don't need a sharp or heavy knife. Just point the blade at yourself and Zhao Fangjin will surrender.
This strange world is just like a fleeting dream, but human emotions are not like plants or trees that come and go freely.
Zhao Fangjin treated her like his own sister and planned this for her, but she didn't want Zhao Fangjin to end up like this.
"Big sister knows, I keep my word."
As he spoke, Zhao Fangjin's hand fell on Zhao Fangyu's earlobe and gently pulled it.
The force was not strong, but with a hint of flattery, gently shaking the hem of Zhao Fangyu's clothes.
"Sister knows she was wrong."
Meeting Zhao Fangjin's eyes that were gentle enough to heal all wounds, Zhao Fangyu's heart softened again and again.
She knew that it was not Zhao Fangjin's fault. It was because she was not strong enough and did not have enough power.
If one day she could hold the life and death of countless people in her hands, the scene today would be completely different.
Zhao Fangjin had nothing to do, so he asked about Zhao Fangmo's schoolwork. Zhao Fangyu sat at the table next to him, writing and drawing, and helping Zhao Fangjin take care of his dowry.
These things were not difficult to get started with. She moved to the next room and met quite a few shopkeepers. In less than four hours, she had finished all the tasks that had been relieving her of the pressure in the past few days.
When she was going back, she ran into Song Bai coming out of Zhao Fangjin's room.
Song Bai endured a lot of days. He could not delay his daily duties in the court, and there were major events happening at home. He was tormented between his wife and mother, which really drained his energy.
When he pushed the door open, Zhao Fangyu saw tears in his eyes.
"Jinniang is not feeling well after giving birth. If you have time, please come and visit her more often."
Song Bai has been married to Zhao Fangjin for many years and knows that Zhao Fangjin and Zhao Fangyu have a very good relationship. Now that something has happened, it is difficult for him as a husband to be by her side every day, so he can only beg Zhao Fangyu to stay with her more often so that Zhao Fangjin's life will not be so boring and sad.
"Of course, brother-in-law should pay more attention to his health."
"The mastermind behind this can get his hands into the Song family's backyard, so he must have another trick up his sleeve."
Song Bai suddenly raised his eyes, the watery color in his eyes quickly dissipated, and there was a hint of surprise in his eyes when he looked at Zhao Fangyu.
Song Bai's figure was much taller than Zhao Fangyu. If they stood in the same place, it would be like two beasts facing each other, with tentative swords and sabers in their eyes.
He knew that all of Zhao Fangjin's sisters were smart, and he also knew that Zhao Fangyu was no ordinary person as he dealt with aristocratic families.
However, Zhao Fangyu's purpose in saying such things at such a time is intriguing.
"My elder sister is in trouble. I am deeply saddened."
"If the Song family cannot protect my elder sister, they will return her to the Zhao family."
Zhao Fangyu met Song Bai's eyes and was not at all inferior. His black and white eyes were cold and indifferent. There was no trace of cowardice when he looked at Song Bai. Instead, he was like a sharp sword that had been hidden all day long and now finally revealed its snow-white blade.
"If you have a good memory, you should still remember what my elder sister looked like when she was in the boudoir."
"As a man, you should support the family business and protect your wife and daughter. If you did your job well, my elder sister wouldn't be lying in bed, taking medicine every day."
There are some things that Zhao Fangyu only says once, and he can only say them now.
If she didn't tell him, Song Bai might still doubt her later. She had such a good relationship with Zhao Fangjin, so why didn't this matter come to light?
Zhao Fangyu took the initiative to attack, and Song Bai's momentum weakened.
"Things in the court are ever-changing. I will be careful, Jinniang..."
"Thank you for your help these days, Princess."
After Song Bai surrendered, the tense atmosphere around them dissipated in an instant. Zhao Fangyu walked into the inner room without looking around, looked into Zhao Fangjin's pale pink lips, and helplessly stuffed the person back into the quilt.
"Do you think you're getting better too slowly?"
Zhao Fangjin shook his head and handed the child to Zhao Fangyu to look at: "Let him stick to you more. When he grows up to be 30% like you, you won't have to worry about marriage."
Zhao Fangyu took the child over, patted her unhappily, and then whispered, "The person behind the scenes has some clues."
