I was switched at birth after transmigrating into a book, but I used my superpowers to wreak havoc!

Chapter 81 The Little Uncle Showing His Fangs

Chen Fang rubbed her swollen forehead irritably. "Tell them to go back and tell them that I'm not feeling well and need to stay in bed. They don't have to come to visit me morning and night."

The maid went there quickly.

Not long after, another report came that Xie Xiu and Tu Jiaojiao had paid their respects with their child outside before leaving.

Chen Fang had a gloomy face and didn't say anything, but asked the doctor to help with acupuncture.

She had a terrible headache right now and really didn't have the energy to deal with Xie Xiu and the others.

On the other side, Xie Xiu and Tu Jiaojiao took the child back to Xiaoxiang Courtyard.

They first went to Songheyuan to pay their respects to the old master and the old lady, and then went to Chen Fang's Duhengyuan.

After returning to Xiaoxiang Courtyard, Tu Jiaojiao whispered as soon as she entered the house: "I smell blood, someone must be injured!"

Xie Xiu nodded and was about to speak when he heard Xie Ying gloating: "Bai Yuzhu was injured! She used Xie Jia's elopement to threaten Chen Fang to save Xu Maochun, and Chen Fang went berserk and slashed her arm with a knife."

Xie Xiu and Tu Jiaojiao looked at each other in surprise. Tu Jiaojiao couldn't help winking at Xie Xiu: Are all the girls in your capital city so wild?

Xie Xiu was speechless for a while: ordinary girls in the boudoir are definitely not as wild as them.

After all, Chen Fang and Bai Yuzhu are too weird and are both ruthless people.

Tu Jiaojiao asked: "Then what should we do next?"

Xie Xiu looked around and said calmly, "Let's go to the inn first to have breakfast with my father-in-law and mother-in-law, and then we can fix up Xiaoxiang Courtyard."

Tu Jiaojiao did not refute. She also felt that this place was too dilapidated and looked like a haunted house, which was really creepy.

So the two of them took the child out and went to the inn to have breakfast with Tu Yong and Liu Zhichun.

Tu Yong and Liu Zhichun had stayed at the inn last night and had been worried about Xie Xiu and the others. Seeing them now, they both breathed a sigh of relief.

After breakfast, the two immediately inquired about the situation at the Xie Mansion. They were somewhat dissatisfied when they learned that Xie Xiu and his family were actually living in the yard of Xie Xiu's deceased mother, and that it had been vacant for many years.

Tu Yong couldn't help but say, "Why don't you just split up and move out..."

But before he could finish his words, Liu Zhichun stepped hard on him.

Liu Zhichun looked at Xie Xiu and said with a faint smile, "I know you have a plan. If you have any plans, you can tell me.

"Old Butcher and I came to the capital to help you. So don't be embarrassed. If there's anything you need us to do, just tell us."

Xie Xiu smiled shyly, a rare moment: "Don't worry, mother-in-law, if I need your and father-in-law's help, I will definitely not be polite.

The affairs of the Xie Mansion will take time to resolve, so Jiaojiao and I will live there temporarily for a while, and then find a time to separate.

Why don't you buy a house and live there first? And help us train some servants. We used to live in the countryside, so we didn't need too many people to serve us.

Now that I've entered the Xie Mansion, I'm surrounded by people with ulterior motives. Without servants I can trust, it's really a bit troublesome."

Liu Zhichun agreed straightforwardly: "Okay, leave it to me. I went to the brokerage yesterday to check it out, but I was staying at the inn, so it was inconvenient to bring the person back.

We will buy a house as soon as possible. If we can't find a suitable one, we will rent one first. In short, we will settle down as soon as possible and train some servants."

Xie Xiu thanked him with a smile, and the few of them discussed the next arrangements for a while before parting ways.

Just as he was leaving the inn, Xie Xiu was suddenly bumped into by someone.

His expression changed, and he calmly touched his belt and pulled out a ball of paper from the gap.

After returning to the carriage, he immediately opened the paper ball and saw familiar handwriting - the same handwriting that told him that Xie Jia had eloped and reminded him to be careful.

The difference is that this time there is an address written on the note.

Xie Xiu decisively said to Tu Jiaojiao, "I'm going to go for a walk nearby. You take the children back first."

Tu Jiaojiao grabbed him nervously: "Is there any danger?"

Xie Xiu smiled faintly: "Since I was able to come to the capital safely, how could the other party take my life so easily?"

Tu Jiaojiao thought so too, but then she heard Xie Ying's baby voice: [Take me with you, take me with you, I can protect Daddy!]

Not only that, she also saw Xie Ying trying hard to stretch out her little fleshy hand towards Xie Xiu.

So he decisively stuffed Xie Ying into Xie Xiu's arms: "Yingying can't bear to leave you. Since there is no danger, you can take her with you."

Xie Xiu: “…”

He lowered his head helplessly, and saw Xie Ying looking at him with her big black eyes, looking innocent.

Never mind, this child is already magical, maybe it would be useful to bring her along.

So, when Luo Zheng was sitting in the private room leisurely making tea, when he heard some noise and looked up, he saw Xie Xiu walking in holding a baby.

In an instant, he was completely stunned.

He first looked at Xie Xiu, then at the baby in his arms, and finally turned his head to look at the sky.

Is he really not dreaming?

Why did Xie Xiu come to see him, holding a baby?

Could it be that she thought he would like children, so she brought them here specifically for him to see?

No, this kid doesn’t even know his identity, how could he bring the child here?

Is this how he acts as a father?

Holding a frail baby in your arms, going on a date with a stranger?

Luo Zheng's face darkened with displeasure: "Why bring the child? Aren't you afraid it's a trap?"

Xie Xiu subconsciously hugged Xie Ying tighter in his arms, while staring at Luo Zheng's face.

Luo Zheng: "..."

He couldn't help but ask, "What are you looking at? I just asked you, why didn't you answer?"

Xie Xiu sat down directly opposite him and shouted, "Uncle, is that you?"

Luo Zheng: "..."

He looked at Xie Xiu with complicated eyes, and after a long silence, he asked, "Can you recognize me?"

Xie Xiu sighed and said, "My uncle used to be very kind to me. I still remember what he was like."

"Ha—" Luo Zheng suddenly sneered sarcastically, "You actually remember! You were only five years old when your sister died tragically? After all these years, you actually still remember what I look like and recognized me at first sight."

Xie Xiu felt a little guilty: In fact, his uncle had changed a lot. If his daughter hadn't reminded him, he would never have recognized him at first sight.

Of course, he wouldn't say such things.

My daughter's supernatural powers must be kept secret!

Just as he was thinking about it, he heard Luo Zheng say faintly: "I have seen your father many times, but he has never recognized me."

Xie Xiu: “…”

Well, he guessed so.

If Xie Yun really recognized the other person, he and Chen Fang would have panicked a long time ago. How could they possibly act like nothing happened?

He thought for a moment and said, "After all, my father doesn't have much contact with my uncle."

Luo Zheng snorted disdainfully, but did not deny it.

He was only six years older than Xie Xiu. When his sister got married, he was still a little kid, while Xie Yun was an adult man, so naturally they would not have frequent contact.

Although he grew up gradually, Xie Yun was busy with the imperial examinations. He passed the imperial examinations and became the top scorer in the imperial examinations. He had constant social engagements and was admitted to the Hanlin Academy, where he was busy with official duties.

It is even more impossible to take time out to accompany his brother-in-law.

So if you count carefully, the number of times they met was actually very few, and each time they only met briefly and didn't spend much time together.

It was far less than the number of times he and Xie Xiu met and the time they spent together.

"Since you can recognize me, it means you have a good memory."

Luo Zheng chuckled, then bared his fangs. "So, do you remember all the details of your mother's tragic death? Tell me!"
