One hundred and seventy-four. support
Chen Ji could only stay in Zhenjiang for three days, and on the third day he had to rush back to Shanghai, which was the result of his efforts to adjust his work arrangement. They called back to Zhenjiang a day in advance, Wu Xinyi answered, she was very happy, but Xie Daozhong and his wife were cold, until the next day these children and daughters came back, Xie Daozhong was still stranded in his office, it was Mrs. Qin who was invited by them in the long room.
Wan Tian and George were naturally the first to pay attention, Wan Tian had already combed his wife's hair in a bun, wearing a hexagram dress with a pipa placket, red and bright colors, bowing her head in front of Mrs. Qin, looking like a shy bride.
Mrs. Qin's eyes were full of mixed feelings, and she didn't know what kind of expression to use to face her for a while. George stood beside Wan Tian, his back straight, and he was full of spirit, and Mrs. Qin's gaze shuttled back and forth between the two of them, and he was silent for a long time before nodding and saying "yes".
"We're going to hold another wedding in front of my sister," Wan Tian asked, hanging her head, "Will father and mother come?"
Mrs. Qin was silent: "Your second uncle called and asked me to go to the capital with your father again, I'm afraid I won't be able to catch up." ”
Although she had already been mentally prepared, when she heard these words come out of her mouth, Wan Tian's disappointment was still overflowing. She turned her head to meet George's eyes, lowered her head again, and replied, "Yes." ”
No one spoke in the room, and after a moment of silence, Xie Huai'an took the lead in speaking: "Mother, after Ah Tian's wedding, I will stay in Shanghai for a few days, a relatively long time, maybe half a year, or ...... A year or two. ”
Mrs. Qin and Wu Xinyi were taken aback together, and just as they were about to open their mouths, Xie Huaian said again: "There is something wrong with that business in Guizhou, it is a little troublesome, I have to deal with this matter." ”
Wu Xinyi didn't know what was going on in Guizhou, but when he heard that he was going to stay in Shanghai for a year or two, his eyes were shocked, and he couldn't help but interject and ask: "Is it serious in Guizhou?"
Xie Huai'an didn't dare to look at her eyes, only stared at Mrs. Qin and said, "I made a mistake, I don't rush to make a move, now that the books are tight, I have to settle this matter with George." ”
Mrs. Qin frowned slightly and glanced at Wu Xinyi. Wanlan said again: "My parents are going to Beijing, and during this time, I will move from Shanghai to accompany Zhen Zhen and help her a little." ”
Mrs. Qin's brows loosened a little, but when she saw Chen Ji, she wrinkled again: "Your husband is still in Shanghai, how can he run back to his parents' house by himself." ”
"Mother-in-law doesn't need to worry about me," Chen Ji immediately said, "Originally, this idea was also my idea, but now that it is an eventful season, don't pay attention to these red tapes." ”
Mrs. Qin nodded at him gratefully, and the front yard reported that the eldest master was here. Xie Daozhong couldn't sit still in the office after all, he walked into the long room, his steps were as calm as before, but a pair of eyes saw Wan Tian's face urgently, and then showed a slight smile: "Ah Tian is back." ”
Wan Tian kowtowed to him with George, respectfully and sincerely. Xie Daozhong sat down at the top, looked down at them, and suddenly said, "I just remembered an old thing. ”
The whole room held their breath and listened to the old story he had to tell.
Xie Daozhong continued: "In the past, when Lord Qianlong was alive, their British Empire once sent envoys to meet the emperor, but the envoys were unwilling to kneel on their knees anyway, and the emperor was furious, and he didn't see him in the end. ”
The hall was still silent, and his eyes were flying, and he didn't know what he meant by his words.
Xie Daozhong didn't let them wait too long, and sighed: "Half a century has passed, and the British Empire's strong ships and cannons have broken through my Qing Dynasty and snatched my daughters. ”
Wanlan didn't hold it, and laughed: "Father, at the moment, our foreign son-in-law is willing to kneel with you." ”
Xie Daozhong sighed again: "The wood is already in the boat, what else can I say." You all know that your mother and I are going to the capital, right?"
The juniors nodded one after another, and responded, "Got it." ”
"The matter of the inner house, presumably my wife has arranged it, so I won't ask too much. Xie Daozhong turned his head and glanced at Mrs. Qin, and then said, "Mrs. please arrange to pack up, Huai'an will take care of the carriage and horses, since you have decided to leave, it will be sooner rather than later." ”
As he spoke, he raised his hand to the Wan Tian couple who were kneeling down: "Get up, you are all tired from a long journey, so let's rest." ”
Xie Daozhong walked in a hurry, which made Wan Tian feel even more uncomfortable. Wanlan comforted her, saying that her father left in such a hurry so in order not to delay her wedding in Shanghai, Wantian pretended to believe it, but secretly cried under the quilt in the middle of the night.
The eldest lord and lady of the long house left with great momentum, and the people from the seven prefectures came to send it, which was a political hint, implying that the Xie family was on the side of President Yuan. Although no matter whether President Yuan can see it or not, or whether he cares about it, they can always do this kind of detailed action without leakage and foolproof.
Xie Huai'an saw them off, in front of the seven mansions, Xie Daozhong and Mrs. Qin respectively told Xie Huai'an and Wu Xinyi Yin Yin to hand over the mansion and the clan to them, and no one in the grand send-off team spoke out against it, which is the strength of the entire Xie family, even if they have the intention of fighting for power and profit, they can always distinguish the priorities.
Xie Huai'an didn't stay in Zhenjiang for a long time, because he was afraid that his addiction to smoking would be discovered by the clansmen - smoking big cigarettes is not a shameful thing, the young masters and young ladies of rich and noble families, and even the ladies and ladies in the palace will smoke a tube to relieve fatigue when they have nothing to do. But the Xie family has always been strict, especially for the eldest son-in-law who wants to inherit the family business - if he is found out by the clansmen to be addicted to smoking, I am afraid that someone will take the opportunity to make trouble immediately.
The old ladies of the Xie Mansion were quite dissatisfied with Wan Tian's behavior of holding a wedding with great publicity, especially the wedding that her parents would not attend, thinking that they were unethical. But Xie Daozhong supported them, and sent them back to Shanghai with Wanlan and his wife on the afternoon of the second day after Xie Daozhong left Zhenjiang, and he stayed in the mansion for a day to meet with all the relatives working in the yarn factories in the seven mansions and arrange their work for the next six months.
Xie Huaixu was the first to notice his abnormality, because he had a needle of Mo Phesan hit on his wrist, and the needle hole was blue and clearly visible.
But Xie Huaixu didn't think about it to Mo Phesan, and thought that Xie Huai'an was sick: "Cousin, what's wrong with your hands?"
Xie Huai'an's hand shook slightly, and then he rolled his sleeve as usual and covered the pinhole: "It's nothing, I'm not used to it in Guizhou, and I got sick when I came back, so I was afraid of delaying things, so I took a few injections." ”
The foreign nurse who pretended to be George's secretary had already followed George back, Xie Huai'an had learned the injection method by himself, and he had been injecting Mophesan by himself for a few days, and it was inconvenient for him to operate with one hand, so he could only be tied to his forearm and wrist and other places that were easy to be seen.
Wu Xinyi didn't know that he was addicted to smoking, because Xie Huai'an didn't plan to tell her, but the husband and wife faced each other all day long, how could they not show their feet?
He thought about it while walking to his residence, Wu Xinyi was packing his luggage for Shanghai, squatting alone by the box and silently shedding tears, when Xie Huaian pushed the door, she was wiping her face with a handkerchief, which startled Xie Huai'an.
"What's wrong?" he hurriedly walked over, helped her up, and let her into the chair, "Why did you cry secretly?
Wu Xinyi had red eyes and a red nose, and Chu Chu looked up at him pitifully: "You live in Shanghai for a long time, can't you take me with you?"
Xie Huai'an paused and sighed heavily: "I was about to tell you about this." ”
Wu Xinyi thought there was hope, and a pair of eyes immediately lit up.
Xie Huaian said: "I want to stay in Shanghai for a year or two, and I can't take you." ”
Wu Xinyi was stunned for a moment, and said in a trembling voice: "You...... What do you mean by that?"
"Zhenzhen, calm down and listen to me first. He held Wu Xinyi's two hands, along with the crying wet handkerchief, in his palm, and said in a deep voice, "I was calculated by Tang Beigeng and became addicted to smoking." ”
Wu Xinyi couldn't understand the meaning of his words for a while, and was stunned. Xie Huai'an didn't speak immediately, the two were relatively speechless, and after a while, Wu Xinyi stammered: "What are you talking about...... addiction to smoking?"
"It's cigarette paste," Xie Huai'an's expression was calm, but he just held Wu Xinyi's hand tighter, "I want to quit it in Shanghai, and I can't be known by the clansmen." ”
When Wu Xinyi was in Shandong, he saw those people who were addicted to big cigarettes, skinny and with dilated eyes. Although she didn't know the Xie family's strict family rules on this aspect, she also hated people who were addicted to big cigarettes.
Xie Huaian patted the back of her hand gently: "If you want to stay in the mansion to help me guard the rear, Sister A will also come to accompany you." ”
Wu Xinyi was full of grievances and cowardice, and was beaten away by his words, she is a wife in the end, and she should support each other with him.
Xie Huai'an watched her expression change little by little, knowing that she had understood and made up her mind, so he was relieved at the moment, leaned over and hugged her shoulders: "Zhen Zhen...... My wife, thank you for your hard work. ”
"Thank you for your hard work, Chongrong," Wu Xinyi leaned on his shoulder and took a deep breath, "Sister Ah can stay in Shanghai to take care of you, I can do it alone, I'm worried that Ah Tian is not as good as Sister Ah can do things." ”
"Sister Lan is worried that her clansmen will embarrass you," Xie Huai'an explained, "She really can't stay here for too long, I'm worried that Brother Yuji will be unhappy." ”
Chen Ji has been a little cold to Wanlan recently, perhaps because he is too busy, and he is negotiating with Shanghai Nanyang Life Insurance Company to open a film and television company, buy equipment from Americans, and contract the production and distribution of the company that Nanyang Life has at hand.
Wanlan occasionally participates in Chen Ji's work, but this one is an exception. From beginning to end, Chen Ji did not reveal even the slightest hint of tone to her.
