Chapter 211: Mr. Xie Falls Ill

Shen Ningning raised her black eyes in a daze: "Brother..."

Her eyes were red and filled with tears.

Xie Mingxu held her little hand: "Ningning, I don't blame you for not telling me, because you suffered too much when you were a child."

"You must not be used to the feeling of having family members to protect you. It's okay, take your time."

"Brother wants to tell you that no matter what happens in the future, I will always protect you when I come back."

To make up for the vacancy of being a brother in the past few years.

Shen Ningning couldn't help it anymore, threw herself into Xie Mingxu's arms and burst into tears.

At this moment, she was happy to have such a good brother.

But, she was also sad.

How she hoped that Xie Mingxu was her real brother.

The matter of Chen Ye was finally settled.

He seemed to have found the life he was interested in.

During the day, he moved stones and sand to build the city wall, and at night he went home to walk with Grandma Chen, cooked for his mother, and raised chickens, ducks and geese.

There were also many matchmakers who wanted to find a marriage for Chen Ye.

Chen Ye didn't care. Instead, when he was moving stones and sand, he found many soldiers who had also returned from the frontier.

They had the same ideals and interests.

Chen Ye was no longer like before, hiding and hiding, and he didn't have a close friend.

So, he was more grateful to Shen Ningning and Grandma Qin.

When he had nothing to do, he would go up the mountain to help move the protruding stones.

Winter was coming, and Grandma Qin had bad legs and feet. If it snowed on the mountain, it would definitely freeze.

He helped patrol twice a day, and if he saw water frozen, he would definitely knock it open.

And the fact that Shen Ningning bought a granary and stored a warehouse of wet wood was also known to everyone.

Once, during the dinner of the Xie family.

Mrs. Xie held the bowl and said with a fake smile: "Or maybe it's because the eldest brother loves the child. Ningning said she wanted to buy wood, and two thousand taels were spent without blinking an eye."

Xie Suzhi ignored it, wiped Shen Ningning's mouth, and smiled and asked her to drink some chicken soup.

"Godfather will blow it for you, be careful of the burn." His careful and caring look made Mrs. Xie sneer in her heart.

Xie Yuanjiu lowered his head and ate beside him, saying nothing, becoming even more silent.

But Mr. Xie Er said with some disgust: "Big brother is right to pamper Ningning as he wants."

Mrs. Xie Er glanced at her husband: "That being said, the child is still young and needs to be educated well."

"I remember when Jiujiu was a child, she spent an extra 100 taels to buy silk flowers, and I scolded her for a long time. Our family is precious, but we can't spend it that way."

"Besides, what we bought was a pile of wet wood, and I don't know what it's for. Hey, I'm also worried about Ningning. What should I do when this child grows up?"

Xie Suzhi raised his head, his face majestic: "I am busy with official duties every day, getting up early and going to bed late, just to let Ningning squander as much as she wants."

Xie Mingxu on the side picked up a chicken leg for Shen Ningning.

He also said calmly: "Second Aunt, don't worry about these. Ningning is a princess and will live a more affluent life in the future."

"But when you usually buy brocade and silk clothes, party with other noble ladies, spend thousands of taels, and help your mother's family, my father never asked about it. We are a family, so there is no need to calculate so clearly, not to mention that it is not your money?"

Mrs. Xie was stunned: "You, you, you, this... How did this involve me? Mingxu, you are not blaming Second Aunt, Second Aunt just said it casually."

"You, child, what you said is really sad, husband, don't you think so?" She pushed Second Master Xie.

Second Master Xie lowered his head to drink the soup, and his expression was cold and he did not respond.

Mrs. Xie was so angry that she wanted to jump up.

Every time when it comes to this kind of thing, her husband will only side with his eldest brother!

Xie Yuanjiu raised his head and said in a gentle voice: "Brother is right. After my father fell ill, it was my uncle who took care of our second house. Mother, you really shouldn't blame Sister Ningning."

This sentence, like a soft thorn, evoked the sorrow of Mr. Xie Er.

He was also a young general who galloped on the battlefield and was young and promising.

But after he became paralyzed, he was like a useless person and could only rely on his brother for support.

When Mrs. Xie was dying, she held Xie Suzhi's hand tightly and asked him to promise that he would never abandon Xie Dizhi in this life and must take good care of him.

Otherwise, she would die with regrets.

Xie Suzhi knelt in front of the old man's bed and swore a death oath.

As long as Xie Suzhi was there, Xie Dizhi would have a good life.

Mr. Xie's eyes were red: "Brother, I have caused you trouble for so many years."

"If I hadn't suddenly become paralyzed that night, you wouldn't have come to see me, and my sister-in-law wouldn't have..."

Xie Suzhi immediately stopped him: "Second brother! Okay, I'm on the same page with you brothers, let's not talk about these things anymore."

Mr. Xie was full of self-blame. He was originally paralyzed because of anger.

The doctor told him to take good care of his illness in the future and not to have big mood swings.

However, now that he was too sad, he began to have difficulty breathing, his face flushed, he gasped, and even his hands began to shake.

Mrs. Xie was so scared that she dropped her chopsticks: "Husband, what's wrong with you, don't scare me!"

Xie Mingxu stood up suddenly: "Quick, call the genius doctor Sima Han over!"

Mr. Xie rolled off the wheelchair and trembled on the ground.

Xie Suzhi immediately rushed forward, protected his head, and shouted: "Second brother, second brother!"

Suddenly

A soft white little hand holding a silver needle reached out: "I can heal it, let me do it."

Mrs. Xie Er looked at Shen Ningning about to give acupuncture to Mr. Xie Er, and suddenly turned pale and said fiercely: "Princess! This is not the time for you to play around, human life is at stake."

Shen Ningning said softly: "Grandma was paralyzed before, the owner of the medicine shop and Grandpa Sima Han taught me how to relieve paralysis."

"If you don't get out of the way, you will delay Uncle Er's life!"

Xie Mingxu pulled Mrs. Xie Er away who was in the way.

Shen Ningning began to give acupuncture skillfully.

After sixteen needles, Mr. Xie Er finally stopped shaking, and his face slowly turned from purple to normal.

He half-opened his eyes and breathed slowly.

"Uncle Er, don't be anxious, breathe slowly, don't get excited, otherwise, you will get sick." The little guy supported his little hand and reminded him with concern beside him.

Mr. Xie Er turned his head slightly and saw the little man's white face.

He smiled with relief: "Ningning... Thank you."

Sima Han was invited by the servants. He didn't care about resting. He hurriedly checked the pulse of Mr. Xie Er and breathed a sigh of relief.

Knowing that it was Shen Ningning's credit, the old man smiled and stroked his beard: "Good, great, I also have an apprentice."

He gave Shen Ningning a thumbs up and praised: "The princess is really smart. I only taught you once last time, and you remembered it. When I teach you, your elder brother won't always let people carry me and run around at any time."

Xie Mingxu protected Shen Ningning and said in a light tone: "You still have to come. Medical skills are too hard. Ningning just needs to learn some fur."

Xie Yuanjiu shed tears and helped Mr. Xie Er up: "Father, it's all my fault. I said the wrong thing. Otherwise, I wouldn't have caused you to get sick."

Mr. Xie Er glanced at his daughter. After all, she was his flesh and blood. He sighed.

"Help me go back." Xie Yuanjiu respectfully said goodbye to Xie Suzhi, Xie Mingxu and Shen Ningning, and pushed Xie Erye away.

Shen Ningning looked at their backs, then turned to Xie Suzhi and said, "Godfather, I will pay you back for the money I borrowed from you."

Xie Suzhi was stunned: "Ningning, why is this? What Godfather gave you to spend is yours, don't feel burdened because of a few words from others."

Shen Ningning shook her head, then smiled sweetly: "If it was clothes and jewelry, I wouldn't pay it back. I have a use for this wood, so I want to pay it back."

Seeing her insistence, Xie Suzhi changed his way and said to the little guy: "In this case, you can help Godfather keep the money first, and when Godfather wants to use it one day, he will ask you for it, okay?"

Shen Ningning nodded obediently.

The little guy was taken back to the room by Muchun and Wanchun to rest.

Xie Mingxu followed Xie Suzhi to the study.

"Father, I got the letter that anonymously reported Ningning Granary. Take a look. Does the handwriting look familiar?"

Xie Mingxu handed the letter over.

Xie Suzhi took it and looked at it. His expression suddenly became dark and cold.
