Chapter 219 Homecoming
Ms. Xiao covered her face with a handkerchief, crying so hard that she couldn't breathe.
If it was different from the past, Xiao Shi would definitely have a quarrel with Xie Zhongbai, but now, she is disgusted by Xie Zhongbai, and there are so many things happening at home, she dare not make a scene.
Mother Tang was the only one left in the room. She was Xiao's wet nurse. Now she came forward and saluted Xie Zhongbai. , Pillow to persuade his wife, the master feels that the wife is doing something wrong, if you talk more, the wife can still listen to it. These days, the wife has been thinking about it. Today, the old lady is in the public, and she is ashamed of the wife. If the master If you don't cherish your wife more, how can your wife survive?"
While talking, Nanny Tang winked at Xiao Shi, allowing Xiao Shi to take the opportunity to give in to Xie Zhongbai.
Mrs. Xiao is not stupid. Seeing that Xie Zhongbai's eyes softened, she hurriedly knelt down in front of Xie Zhongbai and cried, "Master, I am not the kind of person who can't tolerate others. I think Aunt Yu's two children are better than you. How much younger can the concubine Cheng be? The master said that he would bring in another one, and the concubine did not stop him, but the master could not ignore the concubine. How could the concubine have any face now? People in the capital only I'm afraid I'm making fun of my concubine."
This is the truth. Seeing the end of the year, Xiao Chenglie will also go to Beijing to report on his duties. Knowing this, he will definitely not let it go. Just now my father also said that he was hesitant to talk about the widowed girl in Lin Jijiu's family. , and have not given the other party permission so far, it doesn't matter if this marriage is not done now.
Xie Zhongbai abides by the rules of a gentleman. At the beginning, it was his father who said that he would bring in a good concubine to beat Xiao Shi. He is not a good-looking person. If Xiao Shi is willing to keep his own place and not follow the old lady to help the tyrant, he will not be able to make troubles in the backyard.
Xie Zhongbai helped Xiao Shi up with his own hands, raised his finger, and wiped away the tears on Xiao Shi's face, "You have been wronged today, father, I will go back to carry the concubine, my knees are already Three brothers, it's not impossible for you and Mrs. Yu to have children. You don't need people to come in and spread your branches. Only you should know from now on, what can and can't be done. The reason why I agreed to this marriage back then was because of my father-in-law My lord is a Jinshi on the second list, a person who has read poetry and books, and has a clean reputation. Thinking of the girl under his knees, she should also be sensible and general."
Mrs. Xiao understood what she said. The reason why she wanted to raise her concubine was to beat her up.
She was overjoyed, she naturally agreed to everything Xie Zhongbai said, lowered her head and said, "Master, I know I made a mistake, and I will correct myself. If I did something wrong, the master said that I am wrong." will be kept in mind.”
Xie Zhongbai got up and helped her up with both hands, "You and I are married, I understand your thoughts, and I have told you again and again that the future head of this family will only be the eldest brother, the eldest brother is literary and military, distinguished, regardless of his status. His temperament and talent are beyond my comparability, he was selected as a Tanhua at the age of sixteen, and everyone said that he has the talent of the number one scholar, and his writing is beautiful, how many people are there in the past and present?"
Speaking of elder brother, Xie Zhongbai was full of distress, and his expression was bleak, "Later, elder brother suffered the pain of losing his wife, he had no intention of official career, traveled abroad for a year, left many legends about him in the rivers and lakes, went to the frontier, five years, the Xie family did not Give him any help, he has made great military exploits, and was appointed by the emperor as the commander of the Shenji Battalion. The elder brother is only 30 years old, and he is already a fourth rank. I think I am not as good as him!"
Xie Zhongbai is also a young man who is proud of his talents when he was admitted to the imperial examinations. But if we say, who is worthy of his admiration in his life, one is his father and the other is his elder brother.
The old lady has brainwashed him for so many years. He has never shaken his belief, let alone Xiao.
The old lady had the idea of arguing, and he had no choice but to do so, but the Xiao family had it, and he absolutely couldn't tolerate it.
Xiao Shi had already realized this, and with lingering fear in his heart, he lowered his head and admitted his mistake, "It's my concubine who is short-sighted."
The old man was still waiting for Xie Zhongbai to reply in Qijianzhai, Xie Zhongbai didn't stay in Fuhe Courtyard any longer, and only asked Xiao to apply some medicine on his face so as not to hurt his face.
The goal was achieved, and Xiao Shi was really afraid of hurting her face, so she hurriedly asked Mammy Tang to boil eggs to apply to her face, and then found some medicine to apply.
"What about my sister? Will she not be discovered?" Xiao asked.
She got this slap, which was more uncomfortable than killing her, and the guilt of revenge for the old lady was gone.
"Is that possible?" Tang Momo glanced out of the window and said in a low voice, "The princess of the county is doing things, what else does the wife have to worry about? Now, the master's heart has finally come back, and the wife should not twist with the master in the future." Now, this husband and wife are of one mind, their profits cut through gold, and the girls and buddies will be successful in the future, which is better than anything else."
"I've seen through it a long time ago." Mrs. Xiao didn't want to mention the previous incident anymore, and the loss was almost exhausted. If I think about it, I can't get along with myself. What's going on? I always feel that this is wrong. Looking at Uncle Yongchang's mansion, it means that she doesn't take sister Mei seriously. If this marriage is really going to happen, it's best if they are cousins in the first place. Yes, could it be said that the Yongchang uncle's mansion was plotted by sister Mei?"
Nurse Tang didn’t know, she was deep in thought, when Hongyu walked in quickly outside the door, and said in a hurry, “Madam, the master said to let the wife go to Chunhui Hall quickly, uncles and wives are calling.”
Ms. Xiao covered her face, and said to herself, she hadn't found the Yongchang uncle's mansion yet, but the Yongchang uncle's mansion actually came to her door. This is really great.
Chunhui Hall was in a mess.
The vertical screen at the door was knocked down to the ground. There were several pots of narcissus in glass pots, pots of fire-burned flower bonsai and pine red plums.
Mr. Xiao, Mr. Qian, and Mr. Yuan who came after hearing the news stood in the yard, looking at each other, listening to the sharp quarrels and insults coming from inside, no one wanted to go in.
"Report to Tianfu!"
Xie Zhiwei's voice sounded at the door, and the third sister-in-law hurriedly turned her head away, seeing Xie Zhiwei standing at the door wearing a red cloak with a pale face, she couldn't help being startled.
"What are you doing here, kid?" Yuan Shi hurriedly asked, asking someone to send Xie Zhiwei back.
"Mother, Second Aunt, Third Aunt, everyone is calling at the door, what are you waiting for? Report to the yamen!" Xie Zhi said coldly, looking at the main hall of Chunhui Hall.
There was a moment of silence in the room, and after a while, Mrs. Sun and the two sisters-in-law rushed to the door, and cursed at the third sister-in-law of the Yuan family, "I thought the Xie family's poems are polite, how can you make sense? My aunt has been married to the Xie family for thirty years, right?" It’s a dog that has learned to read and write, why doesn’t it make any sense at all? The junk that can’t be accommodated in my own house is stuffed into my Feng’s house, not only hurting my father, but also hurting my son! "
The first update!
