This time, the Lady Xu finally understood the reason behind Lady Zeng's visit to the Xie Clan. She was blaming Yue Bing for being so secretive that she did not want to spit out the truth, but it seemed like she could not say it out.

Her big brother's sickly and sickly appearance might just disappear someday. On what basis would she have to harm a perfectly fine young lady like her? Seeing that Second Miss was out of favour and Third Sister became a widow, she started playing with their Xie Clan like they were monkeys.

The more Lady Xu thought about it, the angrier she became, and even the feeling she got from being in front of Prince Jin's Wife just now, she almost flipped the table. After waiting for Xie Cen to return with such difficulty, he did not care about pouring tea for him anymore, and directly told Xie Cen everything that had happened.

The more Xie Cen listened, the more he frowned, he understood that he was the one who planned Third Sister's marriage, and now that he was involved in Prince Jin's Wife's marriage, he could even guarantee that he would be able to do so. Marquis Anfeng's young master was simply a chess piece that he could not be bothered with, it was not good for him to be able to grab the stage, it was not good for his body either, he was a lady that had married into the Prince Jin's Wife, what kind of logic was this?

As for the matter of Xie Jingxi's marriage, the two of them disagreed with each other for the first time, but there was nothing they could do about it, after all, this was something that the Prince Jin's Wife personally protected. When had they ever seen the Prince Jin's Wife personally protect the media?

Xie Cen was also troubled, "Let's delay it for now, didn't they say we need Third Sister's permission? She wouldn't be willing to marry a sickly girl, right?"

Lady Xu thought about it, that was reasonable, even if Xie Jingxi became stupid like Nan, she still wouldn't want to marry a sickly girl, right?

Xie Jingxi's first reaction was indeed not to agree. It wasn't because he was a useless invalid, but because she didn't want to marry into the Marquis Anfeng Palace and live the same life as Gu Heng.

As for Gu Yun, Xie Jingxi had thought about it, it was hard to say if she was willing or not, but she felt that although this person was not as rumored, she was definitely not the person she wanted to get close to. As for the matter of marriage, it was not something she wanted. As for being a good man, that was even more so something one could not ask for, but at the very least, she had to live a life that she could control. Even if it was the boring life in the backyard, it didn't matter if it was a bit more difficult, she just didn't want to continue tormenting herself.

Although it seemed that her marriage was more valuable than her previous life and she couldn't control it, she had to do her best to fight for it. At the very least, she didn't want to marry into the Marquis Anfeng Palace again.

In order to make Xie Jingxi agree, Lady Xu had even told her about Chen Du. In Lady Xu's opinion, it was better to marry into the Chen Palace than to marry Gu Yun, and it seemed that after refusing Gu Yun, it would be even harder for her to bring up the matter of him being a wife to Gu Heng. He was obviously plotting against the Marquis Anfeng Palace.

This time, Lady Xu hated Prince Jin's Wife even more. Not only did she destroy one of her good moves, she even made the Xie Residence inhumane. After the Lady Xu left, Ming Yu said anxiously: "Miss, what is this all about? That young master in the Chen Palace, I heard that he had already killed two wives, and the old master's wife is pushing you into a pit of fire. If you marry into the Marquis Anfeng Palace, then you're a widow, and if you marry into the Chen Palace, then you're dead without a doubt, and won't be able to live on, why not marry the young master of the Gu family?

Xie Jingxi could not hold it in and burst out laughing. What was the matter with the little girl saying that now, how could she be so careless, "How do you know that the Chen family's wife was killed by him?

"Miss, are you really going to marry the Chen family?" Ming Yu became anxious, "Can I beg? Let's not be so hasty. If you continue to be like this, I'll tell Old Madem everything."

"Don't meddle in my affairs!" Xie Jingxi rolled his eyes at her.

If both parties didn't agree, then she would just wait and do her best to survive. If Gu Yun didn't act out, then maybe Xie Cen really would make the decision to marry her to Chen Du. If she rejected him, then he would have to fix her marriage because he thought she was stupid.

About Gu Yun who was not in the capital and could not see her, he couldn't blame her right now. Once Third Miss thought it through, she should eat and drink. When Lady Xu came to ask questions, she would just carry them all, but if they wanted to care about Prince Jin's Wife's face, they would not dare force her to nod their heads.

It was as if she had never protected the media. Her Xie Family were at a complete loss, and she was getting more and more uneasy. Other than Xie Jingxi, Xie Cen and Lady Xu were really worried about nothing.

"Old master, what kind of security is this? He raised his head and there was no response. Is this for us to agree or not?"

Xie Cen sighed, "In the past few days, Chen Du had also tactfully expressed his intentions, it was probably because he did not have any intention to marry, causing me to not mention it again, it's as if our Third Sister could not get married."

"Could it be because of the Prince Jin's Wife that Chen Du did not dare to agree to it? "This is forcing our Xie Clan to their deaths!" Lady Xu was angry, "I already said before, if you marry Third Sister to Gu Heng, there will be nothing left for you. Now, with Prince Jin's Wife suppressing us, no one will dare to answer to us, Third Sister, doesn't that mean you can only marry that sickly child?"

was also speechless now. At first, he did not want to marry off to Third Sister, but now, it seemed that it would be better to be Gu Heng's concubine. At the very least, if he could hold the second branch of Marquis Anfeng Palace in his hands, it would mean that he could hold the Marquis Anfeng Palace in his hands instead of marrying a lady.

Master, what do you think we should do now? I'm looking at Third Sister because I don't want to agree to the Chen family's request. I'm wasting time with you, do you have any other good families?

"Yes, there is. Can you raise it now?" Xie Cen was also annoyed, "Prince Jin's Wife will not reject it, can you go and bring up other people's homes, who dares to answer?"

The couple had always been polite and kind, their faces blushing red for the first time. Xie Cen then said: "If it really doesn't work, then I'll agree to this part of mine, no matter what …"

"Master, Madam! The old lady is here! "

"What!" Xie Cen stood up at the same time and repeated: "It's the old granny who has come. She has already passed the main entrance."

"Everything's fine, why did the old lady come on her own …"

Xie Cen anxiously went to welcome him, causing Lady Xu to feel extremely unhappy, thinking that this old lady had nothing to do. She was unhappy in her heart, and could not show her face, so he followed Xie Cen to welcome her.

Come to think of it, this was the first time Old Madem Qin had entered the Xie Clan's residence, but after looking around for a while, she let go of the door. Other than the Lady Xu and a few old men in front of the Old Master, they had never seen old grannies before.

"Mother, why didn't you say anything when you came so that your son could come and pick you up?" Xie Cen came up to support his, but was shaken off by the Old Madem, "Why should I alarm you again, you are busy with your own matters, I can run if I want to, it is not a problem to run into the city."

"Mother's body is always alright. My son has been busy with official affairs for the past few years and has not been able to extricate himself from visiting you. I have to trouble you to come to the capital. It's my son who is unfilial."

"Don't even mention these pleasantries, I'm not old enough to ask you to serve me."

Xie Cen could tell that the old lady's words did not carry that sort of meaning, so he accompanied his with a smile on his face. While giving the Lady Xu a look, the Lady Xu smiled decently, "Mother, I'll clean up the place for you now, you can go rest in your room for now. If you want to eat, I'll have someone prepare some food for you."

"Where is Jing Wan? I'll just squeeze with her."

The Lady Xu looked at Xie Cen with difficulty, "How can I make it so that we have a place to stay? I can't ask you to squeeze into my house."

"Forget it, call the children out to see them."

The Qin family did not insist, and let Lady Xu arrange everything. In a while, they would bring tea and water for the meal.

Hearing that the Old Madem had come, Xie Jingxi threw down the book and ran towards the main house, causing Ming Yu to rush to her with clothes in hand, "Miss, you should at least wear some clothes, please wait for me …"

"Grandmother!" When Xie Jingxi saw the Qin family, her eyes shone brightly. If it wasn't to stop Xie Cen from Lady Xu, she would have jumped into her embrace a long time ago.

"Jingwan!" "Come and let me see." The Qin family stared at Xie Jingxi's body and refused to come down, like a wanderer who had returned home after many years, afraid that she would lose a single strand of hair, "I'm skinny, look at you, you're thinner. You're taller, our Jingwan has also grown to be a big girl."

Lady Xu watched on from the side and had a bad taste. When she saw Eldest Miss, why did she not take any notice of him? Fourth Brother had not even finished school, and only Sixth Miss had come.

At first, Sixth Miss was a little shy, but after seeing how harmonious the Third Sister and her sister were, and how she even had a good impression of the Old Madem, she decided to let go of what she was saying.

"They're all good kids. Sigh, why haven't I seen Nan? Could it be that he went to school with Brother Yu?"

Xie Cen was startled. The Old Madem still didn't know about the matters of the Nan, so she couldn't hide it from him. With regards to this person from the Aunt Zhao, the Qin family had never seen him before, but from Xie Cen's words, they were able to guess that the Aunt Zhao was not someone who would let her guard down. After all, he was an experienced man, there was nothing that she could not understand, but in the end, she did not say anything.

"How's Jingwan's leg?" née Qin once again returned the topic to Xie Jingxi.

Xie Jingxi was startled, how did her grandmother know about this? Could it be that someone had secretly told her about it?

"Grandmother, I accidentally twisted my leg and it's fine now. Don't you think I can run or jump?"

In the end, it was still better to touch than to calculate. Whether it was good or bad didn't need others to say. She could feel it, so she felt relieved.

"What did you say about Jingwan's marriage? If I don't come, who are you going to tell her to?"

When Xie Cen heard this, he sucked in a breath. It was unknown where Old Madem heard the letter, but she had specially come to the capital to settle his debts.
