Chapter 139
"Let's go this way. ”
Hearing Cui Shangshu's voice, Xie Yun retracted his gaze, bowed his head politely, and the two got off the bridge and slowly walked away from the other side.
When Cui Wencheng's wife Yuan heard that her husband invited guests to the house, she was first surprised, and then heard that the person was the "son of Chen Jun", and now the rookie Xie Yun in the court, she was even more surprised.
By the time Cui Wencheng and Xie Yun finished talking, it was almost lunchtime, and when Xie Yun got up to say goodbye, he only heard the door of the study squeak-" opened, and then saw a strange but somewhat familiar woman walk in.
I saw that this woman was in her forties, dressed simply without losing her identity, and her demeanor was quite everyone's, as soon as she entered the room and saw Xie Yun, her eyes moved slightly, and then a gentle smile appeared.
"Why is Madame here?"
Hearing Cui Wencheng's surprise blurted out, Xie Yun suddenly remembered that the person in front of him was Cui Wencheng's wife, Yuan, although they had not talked to each other at the flower banquet in the eldest princess's mansion before, they had seen it.
"The junior Xie Yun has seen Mrs. Cui, and today he came to the house to bother, and he never said hello to his wife, and the junior was rude. ”
Listening to these gentle and polite words, Yuan smiled and looked at the young man in front of him who bowed his head slightly and apologized, and his eyes became more and more satisfied and liked.
"Master Xie, get up. ”
Yuan smiled and raised his hand slightly, and then looked at Cui Wencheng on the side with disgust and said: "Others don't know, but I know, our lord is a well-known government idiot, needless to say, it must be the lord who invited Lord Xie to go straight into the study to talk about the affairs in the yamen." ”
Cui Wencheng was a little embarrassed when he heard this, and he moved his mouth and was about to defend something, but he was pressed down by Yuan's eyes, and he closed his mouth.
At this time, Yuan Shi said gently and with a little apology: "Lord Xie came to the mansion as a distinguished guest, and he should have been entertained, but I only blame my lord for his eagerness and busy with official business, and he actually restrained Lord Xie in this study for a long time for the sake of things in the yamen, and today we are rude." ”
Hearing Yuan's words, Cui Wencheng suddenly remembered something, and was a little embarrassed for a while, Xie Yun noticed the change in Cui Shangshu when he heard it, and the corners of his lips hooked up in a polite tone and said: "Madame is serious, I have the honor to talk with Lord Shangshu today, and the younger generation has benefited a lot, not to mention, Xie Yun is a junior, and he should have visited the mansion, how can he be a distinguished guest." ”
Hearing Xie Yun speak like this to relieve Cui Wencheng, Yuan's heart gave birth to a lot of likes for the posterior in front of him, and Cui Wencheng couldn't hide his gratitude.
It has long been rumored that although the military department of the dynasty was born as a civilian official, he became famous for his war, and when he subdued the rebels, he only heard Cui Wencheng's name, which could make the rebels frightened and flee in all directions, but he was such a powerful character, but he was still known for his fear of the inside.
It is not strange to be afraid of the inside, but what makes everyone strange is that Mrs. Cui was born in the scholarly family Yuan, and in the banquet in the capital, Mrs. Cui Yuan was even more dignified and elegant between her hands, and she was kind to others, all of which made people praise. Therefore, people are even more surprised, how can such a Mrs. Cui make Cui Shangshu so afraid.
Xie Yun has always paid little attention to these rumors, but today in this mansion, he gradually came up with an answer to this question in his heart.
Although Cui Shangshu was born as a literati, he is more straightforward as a martial artist in his bones, not to mention that Cui Shangshu is very anxious, so it is inevitable that he will be negligent in matters other than official business, but Mrs. Cui Yuan is a delicate person, which makes up for Cui Shangshu's shortcomings.
Therefore, in Xie Yun's heart, Cui Shangshu is not afraid of his wife Yuan as the world says, but should be love and respect.
Because of this mutual love, no matter how rumors are outside, Cui Shangshu is still in harmony with this wife, Qin Se.
And it seems that Yuan is angry with her husband, but in fact, her words are full of making up for her husband's negligence, it is precisely because Yuan can always solve the siege for him like this, like a teacher and a friend, Cui Shangshu's heart gradually respects this wife.
The relationship between Cui Shangshu and Mrs. Cui, which is different from others, may have become a joke after tea and dinner in the world, but in Xie Yun's heart, this is a pure and simple feeling, which is enviable.
"It's lunch time in a while, Lord Xie and the master have talked for a long time, presumably they are tired, Lord Xie might as well take a break in the mansion and eat in the mansion today. ”
Speaking of this, Yuan added a sentence slightly apologetically: "It's just coarse tea and light rice, and I hope that Lord Xie will not refuse." ”
Before Xie Yun could speak, he heard Cui Wencheng on the side clenching his fists and coughing: "Yes, Madam is right, you can stay and eat together." ”
Seeing this, Xie Yun naturally couldn't push back, so he arched his hand and said, "Then, the juniors will bother." ”
Hearing this, Yuan smiled and said gently, "Lord Xie is polite. ”
Cui Wencheng couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw this, and he forgot about Fang Cai, and couldn't help but say with a little interest: "I heard that your chess skills are quite good, how about you and I kill a few games?"
As soon as the words fell, Cui Wencheng heard Yuan laugh and say, "If the master wants to play a game, let's wait for a game with Master Xie after dinner." ”
Saying that, Yuan Shi looked at Xie Yun and said: "Lord Xie is in the house, you should also ask the Lord to take a turn in the house, I must be tired of the official business in this study for a morning, although the house is simple, but fortunately, the spring is good today, so let the dog accompany Lord Xie to take a walk in the house, I don't know if Lord Xie thinks it's good." ”
Xie Yun bowed his head and said politely when he heard this: "I'm just afraid of disturbing it." ”
"Probably so. ”
Yuan smiled and his lips opened slightly, and then he turned to the outside and said, "Ah Yan." ”
The next moment, I saw a tall and graceful young man walk in, facing Xie Yun, and bowed to each other.
This man was Cui Zhiyan, the eldest son of Cui Wencheng and Yuan, and he saw him salute Cui Wencheng and Yuan, so he politely stretched out his hand to Xie Yun and said, "Lord Xie, please." ”
Seeing this, Xie Yun bowed his hand slightly to Cui Wencheng and the others, and then he and Cui Zhiyan humbly left.
Seeing Yuan standing there, quietly looking out of the door, Cui Wencheng couldn't help but call out: "What is Madam looking at?" ”
Hearing this, Yuan moved slightly, and there was a little more appreciation in his eyes.
"What does the master think, how is this son of the Xie family?"
Cui Wencheng was slightly stunned when he heard this, and after thinking for a moment, he blurted out: "Outstanding talent, humble and humble, this Xie Yun is not a thing in the pool, he should be a talent for governing the world." ”
Hearing this, Yuan nodded slightly, causing Cui Wencheng to say loudly: "Madam asked what is this for?"
Yuan couldn't help but feel a little helpless when he heard this, and then turned around and looked at Cui Wencheng with a little disgust.
"I don't think you understand your daughter's mind at all. ”
As soon as the words fell, Yuan Shi turned around and went out, personally instructing people to set the meal, leaving Cui Wencheng alone to stand there slightly stunned, and suddenly, a thought suddenly flashed through his mind.
The next moment, I saw that Cui Wencheng had figured out a few points, and the corners of his lips couldn't help but smile with relief, and he seemed to be dissatisfied, but in fact he said kindly: "Sure enough, my daughter is older, so I can't keep it." ”
