Chapter 345: make an appointment

Chapter 345 Meet

"We will go wherever you want to go at that time. We will go out on horseback, and the carriage will follow behind. How about going a little farther?"

Xie Zhiwei nodded desperately, "Why don't you go to the Huangzhuang that the emperor gave me? There is one in Taohuawu, it's March, how about we go there to enjoy the peach blossoms?"

Xiao Xun has no opinion on where to go. For him, as long as he goes out with Xie Zhiwei, he can go anywhere, which is natural.

The two of them agreed on where to go in a few words, and they broke up at the gate of the city. Xiao Xun greeted everyone, patted his horse, and left first.

The two Hai brothers and sisters followed Xie Shibai and his party to Xiaotianshui Lane.

After being separated from her family for two months, Xie Zhiwei has never been away from home for such a long time except that she lived in Cui’s house for two years.

After the carriage entered Xiaotianshui Lane, Xie Zhiwei lifted the curtain and looked out. Only when he saw the two big stone lions in front of Xie’s house and the red lantern hanging under the eaves, Xie Zhiwei felt like going home.

The gate of Xie’s house has been opened, and many servants in new clothes ran out from inside, lined up on both sides, and everyone hung red silk around their waists.

A lot of heads were crowded at the gate, and they all looked this way. Xie Zhiwei saw grandfather, mother, younger brother, and sisters at a glance. She hurriedly got out of the car and walked to the gate without pulling up her skirt. After bowing down, Yuan Shi hugged her into her arms, "Mei Mei, you are really worried about your mother!"

Xie Tiao also had tears in his eyes. He took a deep look at his granddaughter and saw that there was nothing wrong with her. Just now he went up to meet the Hai brothers and sisters, and immediately said, "Since we are here, we will stay at home. We will be a family sooner or later. You don't have to talk to her." See you at home!"

The eye circles of the Hai Muxian brothers and sisters immediately turned red. They had received too much cold reception in the Hai family. After arriving in the capital, they received the kindness of the Xie family one after another. The heart is completely let go.

Entering the main hall of Xie's house, the incense table was already set up, Xie Zhiwei knelt down to salute, invited the imperial decree, and enshrined it on the incense table, so far, the ceremony was considered complete.

After the guest and host sat down, Yuan's mood also calmed down. She avoided re-cleaning her face, and after dressing up, she came to the main hall. Just in time, Xie Tiao asked about the residence of the Hai family brothers and sisters. Yuan Shi hurriedly said, "If the Hai family brothers Don't be afraid of the noise, the Zhuya Courtyard in the front yard is still empty. If the Hai family brothers think it's too noisy, there are still several empty yards in the northeast corner of the house. They used to live there when the old man was recuperating, and his wife and daughter-in-law arranged to clean it. Alright, let's see what the brothers from the Hai family say?"

Hai Muxian thought for a while, "Uncle, how about I take my sister to live in the northeast corner, and we have prepared all the expenses ourselves."

Xie Tiao waved his hand, "If you think it's noisy, you can live there alone. In the courtyard on the northeast corner, only Uncle Mute lives there alone. There is a door open on Linbei Street. , the back door is closed, you can form an independent household, although it is cleaner, it is still not safe, your sister will not be able to pass through."

Yuan Shi continued, "It just so happens that spring is coming, the second girl, the third girl, and the fourth girl should also move out of your mother's yard. According to the old rules, they will live here in Yiranju. There are several embroidered buildings in total. Just repair and take care of it, and the girls choose a good day to move in. The Siya Courtyard next to Yiranju is still vacant, why don't the sisters of the Hai family live there, fourth uncle, what do you think?"

Xie Zhiwei burst out laughing. She was sitting next to Yuan Shi. Yuan Shi heard it and said with a smile, "What is Mei Mei laughing at? Is what mother said wrong?"

When Hai Muqing heard Yuan Shi say that she was "Sister of the Hai family", she was already a little bit astonished, now she smiled and said, "Big Cousin, Miss Wei has always called me Big Sister, and now Big Cousin is calling me Younger Sister again, She's just smiling."

"Your child, you are really not big or young, and you can call her sister?" Yuan Shi said angrily.

"I really can't call in the future!" Xie Zhiwei said, making a face at Hai Muqing, Hai Muqing blushed, and when she turned away, she was about to see Xie Jibai's eyes full of deep meaning looking over, and suddenly I can't wait to get in.

However, her heart is sweet.

The Hai family is really down and out now, but the Xie family is thriving. Although Xie Zhiwei has made great contributions, it is enough to see the status of the Xie family in the court just by looking at who is going to announce the decree. What kind of face is needed to let the majestic Dongchang Factory Governor personally announce the decree.

The ordinary people don't know about these things, but it is impossible for the Hai Muqing brothers and sisters to be ignorant.

If the Xie family denies this marriage, what can they say?

"Sister-in-law is really generous. There are several embroidered buildings in Yiran's house. It is reasonable to say that the three sisters can't live there. Why bother to turn over the Siya courtyard and arrange more women and daughters-in-law to sleep at night. Why bother? I won't be able to stay for a few more days." Xiao Shi said as she glanced at Hai Muqing's maidservant.

An elderly old lady, wishing others could serve her, what can a young maidservant do?

Hai Muxian blushed with anger, and was about to speak when Xie Zhiwei said, "Second aunt, there are five embroidered buildings in Yiranju, and the second sisters occupy one of them, which is decent. Aunt Haibiao came and lived in one An independent courtyard is also decent. People can’t just think about saving money, but also pay attention to being decent, people need face, trees need bark, that’s what it means.”

Even though Mrs. Xiao had a lot of fear of Xie Zhiwei on weekdays, at this time, in front of so many people, Xie Zhiwei mercilessly shamed her, and Mrs. Xiao couldn't stand it, sneered, and said, regardless of the old lady's presence, "Sister-in-law, Sister Wei is now named princess, and she is even more eloquent, and I am still her elder!"

Before Yuan could speak, Xie Zhongbai said, "It's good that you know that you are an elder. The fourth brother's marriage is only two days away. If you are free, you can help sister-in-law take care of the marriage!"

Xie Tiao took a deep look at Xiao Shi, just as if she had farted, and said to the brothers and sisters of the Hai family, "You guys have been frightened and frightened all the way, and the boats and cars are exhausting. I won't let you talk too much. The future will be long , let’s go back to freshen up first, and let you catch the wind in the evening.”

"yes!"

Hai Muxian chose the courtyard in the northeast corner. He wanted to study, so naturally it was not easy to live in the front yard.

Hai Muqing was placed in Siyayuan, and Hai Muxian sent his younger sister to her courtyard.

Siya Courtyard and Yiran Residence are located together. A piece of embroidery building was built on the southeast corner of the garden, and a small courtyard was built on the south side, next to Ningxin Courtyard.

Ningxin Courtyard is reserved for the fourth house, and it is also used as a new house.
