One hundred and thirty-seven. Inner Garden

Wanlan actually knew the reason why he said this, but she didn't show it on her face, she only nodded with a smile: "Don't worry, there is your eldest brother." ”

Xie Huaichang nodded, drank the bowl of soup in his hand, and said a few words with Wanlan, his mind was not here, and the words could be seen perfunctory, Wanlan turned his head to look out the window, and sighed softly: "Go ahead." ”

Xie Huaichang didn't even hear the sound in this sentence, answered, confessed again, got up and left, Wu Xinyi pulled him violently, and the force was so great that he stumbled.

The eyes of the room were all focused, and even Xie Huaichang himself looked at her inexplicably.

Wu Xinyi smiled first and said to Xie Huaichang: "It's been a few days since I came, and I have to leave, why don't you accompany the eldest sister to say a few more words?"

Wanlan said: "That's it, the days are still long, let him be busy." ”

Xie Huaichang reacted at this time, and hurriedly smiled flatteringly at Wanlan: "I was distracted." ”

Wanlan nodded and repeated: "Get busy." ”

Xie Huaichang seemed to hesitate for a moment, but still confessed to her: "There are really some things that I haven't figured out, I'll come to talk to my eldest sister another day." ”

After he left, Wu Xinyi wanted to say a few good words for him, so he sat down next to Wanlan by himself: "There is a little trouble in Jingli, he just came to me to talk about this, and I want to ask if my father told me anything." ”

Wanlan said: "It's okay, my sister and brother have been for more than ten years, and I don't care about this idle word." She flipped through the account book on her lap: "Uncle Fu's son was still there, and I learned to make accounts, and I saw that there was a problem in the account, which was related to the revolutionary party." ”

Wu Xinyi never knew about this, and couldn't help but be surprised: "Uncle Fu's son is a revolutionary party?"

"Ah Xian's teacher Xu Cunzhi is too, at that time the Qing Dynasty was still there, I found out their identities, so I kicked the two out together," Wanlan said: "Now Xu Cunzhi is back, but I haven't seen Brother Xie Cheng again, Cunzhi said that he was all right, why didn't he even send a letter back." ”

"Maybe there is something important that makes it inconvenient to contact the outside world," Wu Xinyi said: "Ning Yin is nothing, eldest sister, don't worry too much." ”

Wanlan said: "Don't worry about it." ”

It is the norm for the minions in the courtyard of the deep mansion to praise the high and the low, and the prime minister's concierge will not change because Wanlan reprimanded Lixia today.

But Wu Xinyi didn't understand her hard work, and after thinking about it seriously for several days, she was still puzzled. After Xie Huai'an came back, Wu Xinyi told him Wanlan's words, and asked, "Do you think she knows that Lixia treats me like that?"

Xie Huai'an was served by her and changed her clothes, and smiled when she heard this: "You guys made such a scene at the door of her room, how could she not know." ”

Wu Xinyi said deflatedly: "Then she still looks like nothing has happened." ”

"Maybe something happened behind the scenes," Xie Huai'an touched her face: "If this matter is dealt with in front of you, it will be your fox and fake tiger, and you will have no prestige in the future." ”

Wu Xinyi actually wanted to complain, but she couldn't help it, because Mrs. Li would frequently complain to Wu Peifu about the grievances she suffered at her in-law's house, and the result of this was that Wu Peifu became more and more estranged from her, because after no man worked hard outside for a whole day, she was willing to listen to his wife's resentful nagging when she went home.

She began to feel lonely in this family, and unconsciously put the words "your family" on her lips, the women in the courtyard of the deep house had already cultivated to perfection, and naturally they could see this change in her, but no one told her clearly.

Xie Huaichang had already left, and he didn't wait for Xie Huai'an to come back from Shanghai, Xie Daoyong asked him to take Mrs. Feng and Xie Wanxin to the capital together, and he naturally lived in Xie Daoyong's mansion.

"I see, don't cut off contact with the south," Xie Daoyong smoked a hookah, grunting, and a little slurred: "It's really not certain who will kill the deer, there is only one president." ”

Xie Huaichang smiled bitterly: "You think too highly of me, uncle, I don't have too deep friendship in the north and south, Wu Ziyu is concerned about chaos, even if I want to betray which side, I don't even have the bargaining chips to surrender to the other party." ”

Xie Daoyong smiled slowly: "Wu Ziyu is not a thing in the pool, I think his future achievements will far overshadow Cao Zhongshan, you have his relationship, I am afraid that it will not be much lower in the future, now there is no bargaining chip, but when he climbs to the top of the mountain, don't you have it." ”

Xie Huaichang said: "He has climbed to the top of the mountain, why should I betray him? Besides, I don't think the president has the intention of calling Wu Ziyu to take over."

"It's not that you betray him, it's that you have a little capital to protect yourself. Xie Daoyong spat out a puff of smoke and came out: "The revolutionary party is going to succeed, the president has soldiers in his hands, but there is nothing except soldiers, the game of chess has always been a pattern, but in the eyes of the president, there is only a dispute between a soldier and a place, whether it is a republic or an empire, he has never understood the true meaning of democracy." ”

The true meaning of democracy is only a subtle and clever way to say, but if you really ask, you can use a few words to pass it, and you can also write a tome with enthusiasm. China has been engaged in constitutionalism and foreign affairs since half a century ago, but foreign affairs have not been able to save the Qing Dynasty.

The previous dynasty left a devastated country for the new dynasty, and the Republic of China was built on the braids cut by the old and young relics of the former Qing Dynasty - these things outside the body are always easy to discard, just like the monk who is a monk, the three thousand troubles on his head can be shaved off with a knife, but the heart may be brought into the coffin.

Xie Daoyong is an official of the former Qing Dynasty, and he is still an official in the Republic of China, he said goodbye to the old man in the post of the Ministry of Posts and Communications, and participated in politics for a few months, and was transferred to the telecommunications yamen.

The roof was lifted, but the pillars supporting the roof were still the same pillars, and no matter how many beautiful roofs were replaced, the house was still so tall and so big.

Xie Huaichang went to report to Wu Peifu's army, he was seconded before, but now he has actually joined the army and is a training instructor under Wu Peifu.

He was on a two-day errand, so he went to visit the house under Xie Daoyong's instructions to show that his personal friendship continued, and Wu Xinyi also asked him to bring it to greet his parents.

The Wu family seems to be in charge of Zhang Peilan, and Zhang Peilan came to accompany the guests at the noon banquet, but a vacant seat was reserved for Mrs. Li. Xie Huaichang actually has a very good impression of Zhang Peilan, she acts violently and magnificently, and can also distinguish priorities, and from time to time brings up the wine and meat in the house to comfort the army, the camp does not know the affairs of the Wu family, and they all regard Zhang Peilan as the genuine Mrs. Wu, and Wu Peifu himself never explains.

Wu Xinyi also asked him to give a message to Wu Peifu, telling him to treat Mrs. Li better, but looking at the current situation, he couldn't say this sentence anyway. It wasn't until the banquet was over that the two moved to the flower hall to drink tea, and Xie Huaichang looked at Zhang Peilan's absence and asked him, "Why don't you see your wife?"

Wu Peifu glanced at him: "What did Zhen Zhen call you to do?"

Xie Huaichang said: "Come and see you and your wife." ”

Wu Peifu let out a long sigh: "What is the situation in the inner house, you probably have also watched it, don't tell Zhen Zhen, you just know it yourself." ”

"I know what this does," Xie Huaichang said: "Your concubine is capable, but your daughter-in-law is not far behind, you are also a person who reads sage books, how can you spoil your concubine and kill your wife so much." ”

Wu Peifu handed the cigarette butt to the plate and knocked it down: "My wife and concubine were all married by Jiaci, and I never like one and dislike the other, let alone spoil the concubine and kill the wife...... If I really want to spoil my concubine, I just need to send my wife back to my hometown, so why bother tossing things around. I think my mother shouldn't have married me this daughter-in-law in the first place, my Wu family is poor and unworthy of her, so she has been wronged for a lifetime. ”

As he spoke, he sighed again, suddenly thought of something, and became alert: "Our Wu family is poor, not as good as your Xie family's century-old high gate, Zhen Zhen will not be wronged in your house, right?"

Of course, Xie Huaichang couldn't tell him about the Xie family, so he had to say: "My eldest sister lives in the house, and she is teaching her to be a housekeeper. ”

Wu Peifu said complacently: "My daughter is smart. ”

He has no children and no daughters under his knees, and he sees that he is approaching the age of no confusion, but the only junior he can worry about is still the adopted goddaughter.

Xie Huaichang didn't see Mrs. Li at all, but he heard her shouting something in a rough voice in the backyard, and the girls waiting in the house heard it, but no one showed a strange look, it seemed that they were all used to it.

Wu Xinyi received a telegram from Xie Huaichang, which was full of words to report good news but not bad news, saying that Wu Peifu was in good health, Mrs. Li lived in the inner garden, and Zhang Peilan was safe.

Mrs. Qin still treats her as before, although she is not intimate, she is not alienated, but she has delegated more power, she has been thinking about Xie Wantian's marriage recently, and she doesn't care much about ordinary sundries.

After the Xie family's pharmacy opened, Xie Huai'an went to Shanghai more frequently, and George often came to Zhenjiang, but because Mrs. Qin was willing to stop him, he and Wan Tian couldn't see each other at all, so they could only rely on Xie Huai'an to pass on the book.

Chen Ji occasionally went back to Zhenjiang to visit Wanlan, and deliberately said good things for George in front of Xie Daozhong and his wife when they were dining at the house, and often said that Wanlan's close friend, Yu Deling, who was married to an American, had recently moved, and wanted to use this to subtly tell them that there was nothing impractical about recruiting a foreigner as a son-in-law.

But Xie Daozhong doesn't care about this, he just needs to wait for Mrs. Qin to take a seat on the young talent in his heart, and then personally pick and choose, and finally choose one person to make a decision, and Mrs. Qin is not in the oil and salt, no matter how fanciful it is here, there is just a light nod and say: "Eat quickly." ”
