Chapter 59
Xie Zhong and Xie Ze spoke together, expressing the impatience of the Xie family and the Yunjun Palace. It turned out that after beating Xie Hai and sending the daughter of the Xie family to Queen Duan, the old lady and even the Duke of Zhongguo thought that this was the case. Unexpectedly, by chance, when Yue Zhen was listening to a sermon in Hongluo Temple, he learned that in fact, King Duan was in love with Xie Fangla, and he was deeply infatuated. I don't know when I saw Xie Fang, and after that, the house has accepted five or six little girls, all of whom are similar to Xie Fang. Of course, how could a concubine of the Zhongguo Mansion go to make a prince in his thirties small. Therefore, King Duan couldn't open this mouth, but conveyed this meaning through Xie Hai. and promised that if Xie Fang married into the Duanwang Mansion, he would succeed in his great career, and he would be the imperial concubine.
But I didn't expect Mrs. Xie to be so opposed to Xie Fang's marriage into Duanwangfu, and even did not hesitate to turn her face with Huai'en Houfu, and went to live in Liuhe Zhuangzi for a summer. King Duan also seemed to feel that he insisted on asking a daughter of the Guogong Mansion to marry as a concubine for fear of causing a situation that would be difficult to clean up, so he acquiesced to replacing it with the daughter of the clan. But he didn't stop thinking about it.
The last words that Yue Zhen heard that day were King Duan, "If you can hold the beauty, this king no longer cares about letting her grow up two or three years old, there is always a way for Xie Yuan to hand over his daughter." ”
The day after Yue Zhen heard this, he came out about the matter of Prince Li's mansion, so he told Xie Zhong about it. After Xie Zhong summed up with his grandmother and father, he weighed it up, it was better to marry the second son of Jianfu than to be a concubine to a person in his thirties, and since King Duan said such a thing, he was afraid that he would not be able to protect Sister Fang by marrying into an ordinary family, no matter what, it was impossible for King Duan to rob his daughter-in-law with the son of a county prince's family, so he had this family business.
The three of them waited until dawn, and then they were arranged by the servants to rest in the study.
The old lady was very happy because the New Year was coming, and her third son also came back, and she wanted to go to Hongluo Temple on a whim to offer incense. Since the old lady has spoken, how can the people below do anything wrong. I sent someone to Hongluo Temple to talk to the host early, and sent a servant to clean up the snow that led to the top of the temple, and invited the abbot of the temple to look at the day, and chose the day before the new year. So the whole of the Chungkook Mansion got busy.
A few days later, Xie Hai brought a large family to greet the old lady. No matter what happens on weekdays, for outsiders after all, the surname Xie is Xie when the eldest son and the third son had a secret conversation that day Xie Zhongyuan originally sued the old lady locally, and the old lady has presided over the Zhongguo Mansion for so many years, knowing that this is not the time to turn his face with Xie Hai. Because Xie Hai's water is too deep to act rashly. So the old lady entertained Xie Hai's family very warmly.
Xie Hai's wife, Qu Shi, was married to him when he was in the northwest, and was the daughter of a guard, with a relatively straight personality and a loud voice, and she was an unreasonable person at first glance. My mother's surname is Qu, and I heard that she has six brothers, but she has only one daughter. If Xie Hai hadn't married her, he might have died in the northwest that year.
Although she is not the daughter of a big family, Qu's basic politeness is still there. I brought gifts to every lady in the house, especially a bracelet with some transparent stones the size of a small fingernail, and said while putting it on Xie Fang's hand,
"This is from the country of Rose, called diamond, it is the most beautiful in the sun, but it has two strings, one string is given to Sister Fen, and this string is given to Sister Fang. Who called her sister and sister fate, and they married into a family. ”
The old lady nodded, looked at Sister Fang and accepted it very awkwardly, and said with a smile, "Who said no, you left Sister Fen in the capital at the beginning of the year, and I was still thinking that I would always find the right person, but it was a coincidence." Our Sister Fang is a character who doesn't know how thick the sky is, and there will be Sister Lao Fen in the future. ”
"Grandmother Uncle's words are serious, Sister Fang and I are cousins, so we are naturally close. Besides, Sister Fang is only young, and her temperament is the most lively and likable, I believe that the princess will like it in the future. Xie Fen stood up and replied very respectfully.
Tan sat there and felt uncomfortable when he thought of the origin of his daughter's family affair, and he didn't say a word. Seeing this, Xu Shi hurriedly served tea and water.
"Auntie, I heard that you are going to take your sister-in-law and them to Hongluo Temple to offer incense, right? Don't blame me for being rare and weird, I've heard the name of Hongluo Temple in the northwest, but I didn't have the opportunity to come to Beijing to see it. Now my niece and daughter-in-law have a reluctant invitation, and I hope that my aunt can take us to take a look, and it won't add any difficulties to you. ”
What kind of person, isn't this forcing others to agree when they say their thoughts, what else are you asking? Sister Fang glanced at Qu Shi very unhappily, Xie Fen sat on the side and looked at it without being annoyed at all, and kept smiling.
"Look at what you say, there will be any difficulties, just go together. It's the twenty-second day of the lunar month, come over early then, let's go together. The old lady said with a smile.
Xie Fang returned to Graceland angrily, Qiu Xiang hurriedly took her clothes and changed them for her, because she twisted around, she accidentally shaved a strand of Xie Fang's hair.
"You're blind, how do you do things, just like your cress, she doesn't speak lightly, you don't do things lightly."
Qiu Xiang hurriedly knelt down and didn't dare to say a word, Mother Liu came over and motioned for Qiu Xiang to go out and serve Xie Fang in person.
Qiu Xiang walked out, holding back tears from her eyes and hurried back to her room. This cress is not enough to succeed and more to lose. Last time, I thought that I could use her strength to add to the wisteria by lighting a fire, but I didn't expect that she did go to Songhe Garden, but she didn't go to the old lady and went to find her aunt. As soon as Shuiqin's aunt Qi's mother heard her niece say this, she asked who was suing her about this, and Shuiqin naturally told Qiuxiang. As a result, Qi's mother took the opportunity to come to the second lady's yard to deliver something, and told Qiu Xiang with a gun. The most important thing is that I don't know what Qi's mother said to Dongwen, after that, Dongwen looked at her differently, Qiuxiang wanted to explain, but Dongwen didn't ask a word, and the hatred in her heart was helpless.
Today, when I saw the second miss talking about herself and Shui Qin together, my heart beat a drum, didn't the second miss know something? No, I finally got to the second class, and I can't do anything that disgusts the second lady, so let's stay up first, and then start when I have a chance. It's just that idiot of cress, you must find a chance to take this breath.
Mother Liu saw that Xie Fang's anger had passed for a while, and said while pulling her hair, "Qiu Xiang is usually a little smarter, but her heart towards Miss is sincere, whether she talks a lot or not, but the slave maid thinks it must be unintentional." You also know that Shui Cress came with the two of them, one was promoted to the second class, and the other was by your side to serve every day, can she not be in a hurry? So, maybe it's a bit of a rush. ”
"Well, got it. Aren't I also unhappy in my heart, you also saw Xie Fen's pretentious appearance, and I was angry when I looked at it. ”
Mother Liu turned around and half-squatted in front of Xie Fang, and lovingly pinned a wisp of hair behind her ear, "Miss, you are going to marry into the Guogong Mansion, the old slave said something overstepping, you have to change your temperament, and it will only take two years." You will marry in the future, but not only Xie Fen alone, you have seen the temperament and skills of the princess, as well as the temperament of the second lady. Not to mention a large group of brothers. Something like today isn't worth being angry about, you know? ”
"What can I do, nurse, I am scared when I think about it. Why do you say that person must save me, the water is not deep, just drink a few sips of water from the sky. Xie Fang put Liu's mother's hand around her neck, and blushed when she thought of the person who hugged her.
Mother Liu hugged Xie Fang, a soft-hearted, her son who had just given birth a few days earlier suddenly went, her body was uncomfortable and her heart was even more uncomfortable, it happened that the Zhongguo Mansion was looking for a nurse for the second lady. said that she chose a lot, but the second lady just refused to eat, the neighbor's old sister-in-law in the Zhongguo Mansion Lou Cha saw that she was sad all day long, and the milk was damaged, so she persuaded herself to come to the Zhongguo Mansion to try, but I didn't expect the second Miss Deng to eat her own milk, watching such a young child grow up little by little in her arms, plus it didn't take long for Liu's mother's head to go again, and she had no worries about her heart on Xie Fang's body.
