Chapter 355 Maintenance
"In the middle of the night, you come in and out of my room. You might cause criticism. Get out, I'm going to sleep." Xiao Xun yawned pretentiously, waved his hand, and wanted to drive Mu Guihong away.
Mu Guihong was extremely surprised, not because Xiao Xun was going to sleep as a night owl before the first watch, but... Mu Guihong licked his lips, "Ah Xun, when did you care so much?" What do other people think of you? We have been buddies for so many years, we have always advanced and retreated together, didn't you say that you are not afraid of gossip?"
"I'm not a fool, so I'm not afraid of gossip?" Xiao Xun glanced at him, "Aren't I afraid of people saying that I don't like women and men? What should my future wife do if she finds out?"
Mu Guihong took a deep breath, unable to hide the pain in his heart, he took a deep look at Xiao Xun, turned his head and walked out.
Xiao Xun didn't bother to talk about what this long-time friend was thinking. He changed his clothes, went out, climbed over the eaves and walls all the way to Xie's house, and then huddled under the big begonia tree in Xie Zhiwei's yard. At this moment, he had to wait The man, for some reason, has not returned.
In Qijianzhai, Xie Zhiwei sat in front of Xie Tiao, she lowered her head, a little guilty, "Grandfather, granddaughter is a little impulsive today..."
She told what happened before she started, and Xie Tiao waved her hand, "You are still young, and there are some truths I didn't tell you. In this life, even if you want to be safe and stable, and your wife is average, you must It depends on what price to pay. If you want to exchange dignity, servile obsequiousness, then forget it, it is better not to live than to live."
Xie Tiao also felt a little sad, "Your eldest cousin, I still remember her appearance when she was a child, Yuxue is cute, not inferior to you. When she married and came to Beijing, I went to drink a glass of wedding wine. I really didn't expect that Xuandehou The Second Young Master of the mansion is like this."
"It's my granddaughter's fault. The two families are so close, I didn't pay much attention to my cousin, and I didn't know Mrs. Han was such a person."
"You are still young and ignorant. This matter has nothing to do with Mrs. Han. When a woman marries into her in-law's house, it seems that she has to set rules in front of her mother-in-law every day, go around in the backyard, and deal with her sister-in-law. In the end, it all depends on your husband."
Xie Zhiwei raised his head in surprise and looked at his grandfather.
Xie Tiao touched his granddaughter's head across a table, and smiled kindly, "If a husband-in-law respects his wife and protects him everywhere, even if his mother-in-law doesn't like it, he won't dare to talk about it. On the contrary, no matter how good No woman can stand in this family unless..."
"Unless the west wind overwhelms the east wind!" Xie Zhiwei thought so, and she cupped her hands mischievously at Xie Tiao, "Grandfather is so popular in the backyard, and granddaughter admires it!"
"Hahaha!" Xie Tiao looked at his granddaughter with a look of pride, not out of arrogance, but proud of having such an extremely intelligent granddaughter, it was rare for him to sit and talk with his granddaughter, and he didn't want to talk too much Other people's affairs, "Don't worry about this matter, it should not be your cousin Cui's family who is anxious now, it should be Xuandehou's mansion."
"Yeah!" Xie Zhiwei nodded, "Back then, although the eldest princess asked for the marriage, it should have been the emperor's will. The emperor personally issued the marriage decree. Marriage between a family and a powerful person is a beautiful story, but If people in the world know that the daughters of aristocratic families have suffered all these hardships in powerful families, and they don’t know how to lose face of the powerful, in the future, which noble family would like to marry a noble family? The emperor wants to blend the two rivers that are clearly separated, It may be difficult to weaken the influence of the family."
"Besides, grandfather, do you think the palace will think too much? Do you think Mrs. Xuande Hou Shizi is dissatisfied with the marriage bestowed by the emperor?"
Xie Tiao took a deep breath, and looked at his granddaughter in horror. These truths, which were unclear to many scholars in the court, were said so clearly from his eleven-year-old granddaughter.
Xie Tiao once again felt extremely regretful, if the person in front of him was the eldest grandson, in the future, he might climb out of the grave with a smile one day.
Alas, Xie Tiao's only dissatisfaction with the Cui family is that he turned a good eldest grandson into a first-in-law granddaughter. In this family, whether it is brother Cheng or brother Xi, they are far worse than sister Wei. One and a half stars.
Fortunately, the granddaughter has always cared for the younger brothers in the family. Under her leadership, the brothers and sisters in the family are harmonious and friendly. They will support each other in the future and will not lose the reputation of the Xie family.
"That's it. How is your eldest cousin's health?"
"There is no danger of life for the time being, but if you want to give birth in the future, it may be difficult. However, if you can't make peace with the Xuande Hou Mansion, will the eldest cousin still have a child with Zhang Ergong?" Xie Zhiwei shook his head violently when he thought of this. Shaking his head, "There's nothing wrong with that."
"Yeah!" Xie Tiao also agreed, "Grandpa knows this matter well, it's late at night, let Shen Shuang take you back to the yard."
When this incident happened, Xie Tiao had to make a plan first, but imagine how the Xuande Hou Mansion will launch a disaster at the court meeting tomorrow morning. Although this matter involved a girl from the Cui family, it was her granddaughter who made the trouble. Don't say that the granddaughter has done things righteously, even if she is wrong, Xie Tiao has to defend her.
Correcting mistakes and punishing them is their own business. As long as they don’t rebel, it’s not up to others to make irresponsible remarks.
After letting Shen Shuang send Xie Zhiwei away, Xie Tiao asked the second child to come over, told the story again, and asked the second child, "What do you think about this matter?"
Xie Zhongbai frowned and said, "When Cui's Xilou was in the previous dynasty, he was used to speculation, and he didn't think about what he thought about it today. He didn't take his daughter seriously, and he really lost the face of the aristocratic family. In other words, Xilou is no longer qualified to be a It's called a family."
"It's just a saying that the family is not. We live our own lives, and it doesn't matter what people outside think of us. Now, how to solve this matter?"
"It's not a big deal. My son still has a few close censors. If the soldiers from Xuandehou's mansion come, we will block them; When Sister Wei encounters this, if she doesn't take it seriously, her son will still feel chilled, but fortunately, she is a righteous girl, so how can my son let her suffer?"
Xie Tiao nodded, his sons are still good, "You go to arrange it in advance, and say hello to those who should say hello, if the Xuande Hou Mansion refuses to let it go, then we don't have to be polite."
Xie Zhiwei returned to the yard. After taking a bath, he was about to go to bed. His ears perked up when he heard the sound, and said to Zi Mo, "You go out first. I'll read a book first and then go to sleep."
"It's almost two o'clock. Girl, you've been busy all day today, don't you feel tired? Go to bed early, wake up early tomorrow, what books can't you read?"
"That's fine, I won't read it, you leave a lamp, and I will blow it myself later. There is no need to arrange people to be on duty outside."
