Chapter 151: The Study

After Mrs. Xie returned home, Xie Zhen couldn't help but be more diligent when she ran to Changxi Courtyard.

Old lady Xie deliberately wanted to hone the patience of this little granddaughter, so she looked very cold every day, and when Xie Zhen invited her, she simply raised her hand and sent her to the yard to play.

Xie Zhen didn't know what his grandfather thought, but he thought he was busy with something, so he didn't dare to make too much noise, so he just sat obediently in the yard. Fortunately, she is a quiet character, she often doesn't feel bored when she sits all morning, and Xie Yu often comes to accompany her, the two brothers and sisters talk and laugh, and time flies very quickly.

On this day, Mrs. Jin, who was sitting in the wing room and looking at the window, couldn't help but pout when she looked at the two children sitting in the yard, and said to Mama Jin: "You said that the monkey has really become a sperm, and she knew that she was going to shoot her grandfather's ass at such a young age." ”

Mama Jin smiled: "Miss Six has always been a filial child. It's rare for the old lady to come back once, I don't know when the next time we meet, can Miss Six not be rare? ”

Hmph, if the old man brings that monkey to Shangjing, will there be fewer days of meeting in the future? The monkey knew that the old man had been filial to her? Mrs. Jin couldn't help but think so in her heart, but she also thought that she had often embarrassed their mother and daughter in the past, and it was really understandable that Xie Zhen and her were not close, and it would be a little sour to say this.

Thinking like this, Mrs. Jin only turned her head a little awkwardly in Mama Jin's smiling gaze and continued to look out the window.

At this time, I didn't know what Xie Yu said to provoke Xie Hao, the little girl was so angry that she clenched her hand into a fist and punched Xie Yu's arm.

Old Madam Jin subconsciously frowned and said, "Whose clothes is that monkey wearing?" Why is it so long? If she goes out, people who don't know will think that I detained her. ”

Mama Jin glanced out of the window and said a little strangely, "Yes." Didn't you just cut new clothes for a few young ladies a few days ago? Why did Miss Six wear such a big dress? Could it be that the new clothes cut this time are not up to size? ”

Old Madam Jin said, "You call her to ask." ”

Mama Jin answered yes and only took two steps, but Mrs. Jin felt that it was inappropriate, so she only changed her mind and said, "Forget it, just ask her outside, don't let her come." She now comes to say hello every day, it's noisy, I get annoyed to listen to it, after you asked. If she's okay, let her go back! ”

Mama Kim smiled and should be.

Xie Zhen didn't expect Mrs. Jin to observe them in the house, but when she suddenly saw Mama Jin come to ask about her clothes, she was startled, and heard that Mrs. Jin didn't mean to see her. I was relieved again.

Liang Fengxian has treated her hand for more than half a month, although the red mark has not been completely removed, but it has also made the color of the red mark a lot lighter, and now there is only a thin pink one, if you don't look carefully, you can't see it at all, so she dares to run to Changxi Courtyard so blatantly, the reason why she is still wearing wide clothes, is mainly to be careful.

Now that Mama Kim came to ask her, she was surprised at first, but she quickly calmed down. First, Mama Jin will never open her sleeves and look, and second, the third brother is still by her side!

Sure enough, I heard Xie Yu explain for her: "Mama, Ah Zhen, this girl is stingy, where is she willing to wear such good-looking new clothes?" I said I wouldn't wear it until I was going out to play someday. ”

Some children are like that, always saving the best for last. Mama Jin didn't think it was strange, but said again: "Third master, sixth miss, the old lady is still talking in the study, and I can't finish talking about it for a while, why don't you go back first?" It's time for lunch. ”

Xie Yu looked at Xie Zhen. He came to Changxi Courtyard and really didn't have anything else to do except for the morning and dusk provinces, and he didn't have to talk to the old lady Xie according to his true identity, he came here just to accompany Xie Zhen, she sat in the courtyard every day and read a book. He looked bored for her.

Xie Zhen wanted to find an opportunity to ask Old Lady Xie the purpose of coming back this time, and immediately said, "Then we will stay and dine with my grandfather and grandmother." ”

Is this still worth it? The old lady's meaning is clearly that she doesn't want to see Miss Six, not only did she not invite Miss Six back, but she left people behind, I'm afraid that the old lady will be so angry that she can't even eat, right? Mama Jin looked hesitant, a little annoyed that she had brought up the matter of lunch.

She had no choice but to look at Xie Yu and said, "Maybe the third master has something important?" ”

She originally wanted to invite Xie Zhen and Xie Yu to go together through Xie Yu.

But he didn't expect Xie Yu to say without thinking about it: "I don't have anything important." Let's stay with Ah Hao to accompany my grandfather and grandmother! ”

Mama Jin was speechless.

Xie Yu said again: "Please also ask Mama to let people tell the small kitchen, you don't need to add any dishes, just add two pairs of dishes and chopsticks." ”

Mama Jin still wanted to find an excuse, but Xie Yu turned her head and instructed Yun Lai: "You go back to the courtyard and tell your wife, I will stay with my grandfather for lunch today." Don't forget, also go to Mulan Xiaozhu. ”

Yunlai said yes loudly, turned his head and ran.

His steps are very fast, even if Mama Jin wants to stop him now, there is no way, and Xie Yu has arranged it like this now, what she says is somewhat faceless, she has to go back to report to Mrs. Jin that the third master and the sixth lady are going to stay for dinner.

Mrs. Jin didn't expect to wait for such a result after waiting for a long time, so she couldn't help but complain about Mama Jin's ineffective work, but she didn't get angry in her heart, although she didn't like Xie Hao very much, but mainly because of the Li family, she was not as disgusted with Xie Zhen as she verbally.

Mama Kim then sent someone to inform the kitchen.

When Old Lady Xie came out of the study, she stood at a glance at the two children standing straight in the courtyard.

"Why are you still here?" He waved his subordinates back and said strangely.

Xie Zhen smiled and said, "My third brother and I are here waiting for your grandfather to dine together!" ”

Xie Yu also smiled and echoed her words.

Old lady Xie snorted lightly, didn't say anything, only took the lead in the hall with his hands behind his back, and Xie Yu and Xie Hao hurriedly followed.

Mrs. Jin was already waiting inside, and when she saw Mrs. Xie coming in, she hurriedly beckoned someone to bring a basin to clean the old lady's hands, and personally took the silk to wipe the old lady's hands.

Old lady Xie also felt that this matter was too small and ordinary, so he only stretched out his hand to serve the old lady.

Xie Yu and Xie Hao secretly exchanged a look, both a little surprised, who would have thought that the strong old lady Jin in front of people would be so gentle in the face of Old Lady Xie?

Xie Zhen felt an indescribable envy in her heart, when she and Yan Ming were still in a good relationship. It seems that such a small thing has never been done for him.

The two old men didn't look at the two of them, and sat down.

Xie Hao thought that she insisted on staying, and she also felt a little embarrassed.

Xie Yu is much more comfortable.

Fortunately, a maid brought a basin of water to let them clean their hands, and Xie Zhen hurriedly washed her hands. Sit down with Xie Yu.

Eat without saying a word.

The atmosphere of this meal was very depressing, Xie Zhen ate less than usual, Xie Yu couldn't help frowning.

Mrs. Jin and Mrs. Xie had never eaten with Xie Zhen, so they didn't think that the little girl had eaten less today, just as she had always been. Although I knew that it might not be good for the little girl to eat so little, in the end, she cared about her identity and thought that it would be good to give Li Shi a little wake-up afterwards, so she didn't say anything at the moment.

Although Xie Zhen didn't eat much, she knew how to be polite, the two old men didn't put down the chopsticks, and she didn't get up first, she only took a mouthful of green vegetables and bit them slowly in small bites.

When Old Lady Xie and Old Lady Jin were full, she followed Xie Yu to get up. Obediently helped hand over the handkerchief.

Mrs. Jin ignored her, and only took Mama Jin's handkerchief and printed the corners of her mouth.

Old lady Xie didn't think about it so much, she just took the handkerchief handed by Xie Zhen casually and wiped the corners of her mouth, then put it on the table casually, and raised her feet to go to the study again.

Xie Zhen hurriedly said, "I'll go too." ”

Old lady Xie said, "What are you going to do?" I don't have much fun there. ”

Xie Zhen said: "I'll grind it for you!" I can also help you copy the book, my handwriting is good! ”

I don't feel embarrassed to praise myself so bluntly. Old Lady Xie really hadn't seen such a child, and he only felt a little funny in his heart, but he still shook his head and said, "I only read books in the afternoon, and don't write." You don't need to grind. ”

"Huh?" Xie Zhen didn't expect Old Lady Xie to refuse so completely, and suddenly ran out of ideas, and only turned her eyes to Xie Yu for help.

Xie Yu hurriedly said, "Grandfather, I have read a new book these days. There are some things I don't understand that I would like to ask my grandfather. ”

Old lady Xie is too lazy to worry about such a trivial matter on weekdays, but after thinking about it, he is not at home all the year round, and occasionally he still has to care about the studies of these juniors, so he nodded slowly and said, "Then you can come to the study with me!" ”

Xie Yu nodded happily and followed.

Xie Zhen was even happier than Xie Yu. only followed behind Xie Yu.

Old lady Xie said: "Your third brother is going to be a scholar, what are you going to do?" ”

Xie Zhen opened her mouth without thinking and said, "I'll help the third brother grind!" ”

Xie Yu preemptively said: "Then there is Lao Azhen you." ”

Xie Zhen smiled and waved her hand.

The two children had their own discussions, and Old Lady Xie didn't say anything anymore, so he just threw up his sleeves and walked in front.

Xie Zhen hurriedly pushed Xie Yu to follow.

When he arrived at Mrs. Xie's study, Xie Yu was miserable, all he said was nonsense, and when Mrs. Xie asked him what article he was reading, he couldn't say anything, and he was about to reveal his stuffing immediately.

Old Lady Xie's face sank and said, "Are you reading a book?" Why don't you even know the name of the book? ”

Xie Yu had no choice but to bite the bullet and said: "Grandfather, don't be annoyed, it's the grandson who doesn't know how to say it for a while, so I ask my grandfather to wait for a while." ”

Old Lady Xie snorted lightly and stood in front of the window with her back hand.

Xie Yu hurriedly glanced at Xie Hao.

Xie Zhen, who was standing behind the bookcase grinding, nodded, hurriedly took the pen and quietly wrote a few lines on the paper, fanning the wind and blowing with his hand, and when the pen and ink were almost dry, he folded the paper a few times, held it in the palm of his hand, walked quickly to Xie Yu's side, and pretended to persuade: "Third brother, don't be nervous, think about it, by the way, didn't you write down the question you were going to ask when you came?" Where are you looking? ”

Xie Yu squeezed the note she handed over, and suddenly realized: "That's right! It's a shame you reminded me. ”

Their conversation finally caught the attention of Old Lady Xie, and the old man walked back to the bookcase and sat down with a calm face.

Xie Yu opened the note in front of Mrs. Xie openly, cleared his throat and said: "That day, my grandson heard that my second brother was reading historical records, and I was curious, so I borrowed historical records from my second brother in the past few days, but I didn't expect that the article written by Mr. Sima was too profound, and my grandson couldn't understand it for a while. ”

Old lady Xie didn't believe his words, because Xie Long's reading of the historical records was completely false, how could Xie Yu still borrow books from Xie Long?

Therefore, he deliberately made a mistake: "The book of historical records is relatively dull, and it is understandable that you can't read it for a while, but you have to study the spirit of Mr. Sima." ”

Xie Yu nodded and said: "Mr. Sima is damaged, but he can work hard and be realistic, which is indeed worth learning from his grandson." ”

This is so-so, at least it shows that he did understand the historical records. Old Lady Xie nodded, thinking that Xie Long might not have read the historical records, but it didn't mean that he didn't have this book there, and it was not strange for Xie Yu to borrow books from him.

Old lady Xie then bowed his head and said, "If you don't understand anything, just ask." ”

In this way, Old Lady Xie believed him, Xie Yu suddenly admired Xie Zhen in his heart, and only felt that she was so smart that she could know in advance what Old Lady Xie was going to ask, and also wrote down the answer.

Xie Zhen felt in her heart that Xie Yu was smart and clever, where did she write so much detail on the paper, but it was just a few keywords, and the main thing was that Xie Yu was good at adapting.

The brother and sister looked at each other again and blinked in tacit understanding.

Xie Yu glanced at the note again, and said loudly: "Grandfather, there are often stories in historical records about the prince's private visit to Weifu, and it is also said that many assassins assassinated these princes, which shows that it is very dangerous, why do these princes still have to go out of the palace and risk danger?" ”

Old Lady Xie frowned, he didn't expect that what he was curious about was actually this question.

Xie Yu also felt strange in his heart, but he couldn't bear to look at Xie Zhen with doubts, just because he was afraid that Old Lady Xie would see the clues.

Xie Hao also lowered her head, as if she was not at all interested in their previous conversation, but her grinding movements were much slower, obviously paying attention to Old Lady Xie's answer.

This question is inevitably suspected of talking about the royal affairs, the old lady Xie sank his face, and did not intend to answer this question, but he wanted to talk about the matter, and only came back with this question simply as a question, and saw that no one else was present, so he muttered: "Prince, if you want to inherit the treasure in the future, you must always take a good look at your world." ”

Xie Zhen was shocked, could it be that Yan Ming left the palace this time because of the emperor's intentions? Could it be that the emperor is planning to hand over the throne to Yan Ming? How so? Yan Ming in that life didn't have such good fortune!
