without brains."Auntie Liu, what are you hesitating about" Yang Xiao saw her wavering and quickly added fuel to the fire:"I heard my mother say that if a fox demon's soul stays in An Xuetang's body f...Ye Er knew that he had no chance against this woman.

He was neither capable of killing her nor of staying out of what she was doing.

Thinking this, Ye Er painfully closed his eyes. When he opened them again, it was as if he had made some difficult decision.

He sat back down and, without hesitation, picked up the porcelain bottle that An Xue Tang had put on the table. He then poured out a pill and put it in his mouth.

An Xue Tang didn't speak the whole time, but a faint smile still played on her lips.

It seems Ye Er believes her now.

Ye Ergang had just swallowed the pill when his eyes lit up. The cool sensation in his throat made him feel very comfortable.

As this woman said, after taking the pill, his sore throat really got better.

At this moment, Ye Er actually felt a little less wary of the woman in front of him.

He looked at An Xuetang, "How much do you actually know"

An Xuetang smiled, "You don't need to sugarcoat it for me. I definitely wouldn't know as much as you, the person involved. Just say it, why did you drug your older brother"

As soon as she finished speaking, Ye Er gritted his teeth and said, “I don’t have an older brother! My mother only gave birth to me.”

An Xue Tang was not at all surprised, instead, she even wore an expression of 'as expected'.

Ye Er's brows furrowed, "You know"

"Just found out."

She had only guessed before, but today seeing the mistress of the Ye family and seeing the maidservants and servants in Ye Er's courtyard, and what she saw when she pushed open the door, she was certain that Ye Er was definitely not the biological child of the mistress of the Ye family.

An Xue Tang narrowed her eyes slightly, "So you harbor resentment toward Ye Xiaoming because you are not the eldest son of the Ye family, and you poisoned him"

I don't have that ability, the poison I administered isn't lethal.

"Yes, the poison you laced is not fatal, but it will cause instant weakness upon onset."

Ye Er pursed his lips, clenching his fists. Regarding what An Xue Tang said, he not only did not deny it, but even said with some resentment, "If I hadn't been unable to get something more poisonous, I would have definitely killed him that time!"

An Xuetang just listened quietly. She had come today mainly to figure out the relationship between Ye Er and the Ye family. Now that he could take the initiative to explain, she was already very satisfied.

Ye Er's throat ached with every word he spoke because he hadn't spoken in a long time, but he could bear it for now.

Seeing the sweat on his forehead, An Xuetang frowned. She took out a silver needle and said to Ye Er, "I'll seal a pain point for you so that speaking won't hurt as much. Are you willing"

If Ye Er hadn't eaten that peppermint candy just now, he might not have been willing to, but the peppermint candy brought him a very good feeling. At this moment, Ye Er almost didn't hesitate at all before nodding his head.

An Xuetang wasted no time either. Seeing him nod, she immediately got up and sealed several acupoints at the back of his neck.

How are you feeling now

"Sure enough, that feeling of pain is gone. Thanks."

"Your throat is severely inflamed due to previous injuries and your constant consumption of irritating foods. Currently, there may be some foreign objects lodged in your throat."

Ye Er pursed his lips and looked up at An Xue Tang, "But... but there's still a cure"

"A cure is possible, it all depends on your choices moving forward."

As soon as An Xuetang said this, Ye Er understood what she meant. Since the pain in his throat had disappeared, he didn't have much to hide at the moment, so he immediately explained his relationship with the Ye family.

He is a member of the Ye family, but he was not born to Madam Ye. His mother was merely a maidservant who accompanied Madam Ye into marriage.

When Mrs. Ye was pregnant with Ye Xiaoming, she gave the maid who accompanied her dowry to her husband as a concubine.

Madam Ye refused to let anyone else bear her husband's child, so she always had the concubines drink a contraceptive potion. However, who would have known, Madam Ye Er's mother still became pregnant with Ye Er.

Because she drank an abortion decoction, Ye Er's constitution was weak from birth and she often fell ill.

And he also carried a poison within him, one that came from his mother's womb. Though this matter had never been spoken of in the Ye family, he knew very well that the poison in his mother's body must have been inflicted by the venomous Mrs. Ye.

His mother died in an accident just days after he was born. Everyone said it was an accident, but he knew deep down that it couldn't have been.

When he was a child, he always thought that he was also the son of Lady Ye. Until he grew up, he would occasionally encounter various 'accidents', each time almost losing his life.

And then there was Mrs. Ye's attitude, back then he couldn't understand why, even though they were both sons, Mrs. Ye's attitude could be so different. From childhood to adulthood, Ye Xiaoming always had the best food, clothes, and everything else, while he...

When Ye's grandmother was still alive, the things he used weren't too bad. But ever since Ye's grandmother passed away, his life began to go downhill.

He didn't care about material possessions, but he later discovered that after the old woman died, there were more and more "accidents" happening around him, and his servant even died mysteriously.

By then, he was already over ten years old and naturally wouldn't foolishly believe that everything behind it was simply a matter of 'accidents'.

Later, he became more discerning and found the nanny left by the old woman during her lifetime. Under his repeated insistence, the nanny may have felt pity for him, so she told him about his true parentage.

After he learned the truth, within two days, all the people in the old woman's courtyard also left the mansion. They said it nicely that they were leaving the mansion, but he knew very well that all those people had been killed by that poisonous woman.

But he knew deep down what could he do

He thought that no matter what he said, his father should believe him because he was his flesh and blood. But in the end

Not only did the father not believe him, but after he complained, he thought he had gone mad. And for all the misfortunes that happened to him, this good father never suspected a thing.

Over the years, he has survived solely because Ye Xiaoming wanted to use him to test poisons, so he wasn't killed.

What Xiaoming Ye didn't know was that while he was poisoning him, Xiaoming Ye stole some poison powder from his medicine box.

But in order not to let him find out, he could only take a little bit each time.

He wouldn't actually practice poison making. The poison he gave to Ye Xiaoming that day was just something he made up casually. He hadn't planned on poisoning him that day, but Ye Xiaoming came early in the morning to brag to him, saying he would marry Xiaoqin.

Because Ye Xiaoming knew, the woman in his heart was Xiao Qin.

As long as Ye Xiaoming had his eye on something, he wanted to grab it. Although he hadn't thought about how he would be with Xiaoqin, because he knew he wasn't worthy of her.

Ke Ye Xiao Ming, however, didn't think so. Ye Xiao Ming knew his mind, so that day when he set off to An Le Hou Fu, he came to show off to him.

He flaunted his success and even went so far as to say those things. If he hadn't said those words, perhaps...he wouldn't have chosen to poison himself that day.am... was just a little too real.Sitting on the bed, An Xuetang finally calmed down after who knows how long. She now looked calmly at Ning'er, "Ning'er, pour me a cup of water."In her dream, she didn...
