Chapter 153: Marriage
Xie Zhen promised to go to the capital with Mrs. Xie, the old man was in a good mood, and immediately took the initiative to leave Xie Zhen for dinner in Changxi Courtyard, Xie Zhen naturally served carefully to help with vegetables and soup, so Mrs. Xie looked at this little granddaughter more and more pleasing to the eye, although Mrs. Jin said that Xie Zhen was a good person, but when Xie Zhen asked her if she wanted to add soup, she still handed over the bowl and added half a bowl.
After finishing dinner, it was not early, after Xie Zhen returned to Mulan Xiaozhu, she first asked Nan'er to go to Chonggui Courtyard to report the news to Xie Yu, only saying that she agreed, but she did not tell Nan'er about specific things, she knew that as long as the third brother heard this sentence, she would understand what she meant, and now she was inconvenient to say more, after all, it was better for Mrs. Xie to inform her personally.
But in the dead of night, Xie Zhen still inevitably suffered from insomnia.
She was lying on the bed with big eyes, and the sourness when she heard those words in the face of Old Lady Xie in the afternoon came to her heart again, and at the same time, she also figured out that her grandfather was using bitter meat tricks on her! But she really stupidly agreed. However, now that I think about it, there is nothing wrong with it, although she didn't leave any good memories in Shangjing, but it's not the same thing to always hide like this! Grandfather's official still has to be done, and Yan Ming is very likely to become the emperor in Shun, will he still make a move against the Xie family at that time? No matter how she thought about it, she couldn't rest assured, so she just went to the capital to have a look!
Xie Zhen wanted to cheer herself up at the same time, and always felt that according to her experience of reliving a life, Yan Ming would definitely not be able to please Yan Ming in this life!
Xie Zhen finally fell asleep.
The news that Old Lady Xie was going to take Third Master Xie and Miss Xie Sixth to Beijing spread three days later. The people in the house all said behind their backs that Xie Sanye and Miss Xie Liu were blessed, and said that I was noble, otherwise why did I only take the two of them?
Second Mrs. Xie Qin almost wringed the veil in the room, and she was really angry, so she reached out and twisted it on her daughter who was sitting on the side.
Xie Fei clutched his arm in pain and cried out.
Qin Shi glared and said, "Dare to shout!" The movement of the girl's family is so big, I let my grandmother teach you the rules in vain? ”
Xie Fei pursed his lips and did not dare to say anything.
The Qin clan became more and more angry and said, "You, you, how dare you say in front of your grandfather that you are not willing to go to the draft girl?" The old man is just angry that we didn't sue him before, maybe I still hope that there will be a princess in our house, but you are crying with a sad face, which is really unlucky. Only let your grandfather dispel this thought. It's okay now, take Sister Zhen with you, just wait for Sister Zhen to be the princess and kowtow to her! ”
Where does Zhen'er have that ability? Sheffie opened her mouth to refute her mother's words. But he was afraid of annoying her even more, so he didn't dare to say it, but only muttered in his heart.
As he was talking, he suddenly heard a maid report outside, saying that the old lady had invited the second lady to go.
This will be. What did the old lady ask her to do? The Qin family was suspicious, but in the end they still cleaned up and followed the maid.
Xie Fei saw that his mother was gone, and he couldn't sit still, so he only asked Yinye to stay in the room and stare at when the second lady would come back, and he quietly slipped away to Mulan Xiaozhu.
Xie Zhen was feeding Xie Jue rice cereal under the corridor, the little brother didn't like to eat such tasteless things, Xie Zhen could also coax him with some novel gadgets, and he coaxed him for most of the day before he barely coaxed a small half bowl of rice cereal.
Xie Fei was impatient to wait for her to finish feeding the rice cereal, and second, he was worried that his mother Qin would not find her if he came back too early. So he hurriedly pulled Xie Zhen to the other side to speak.
"What are you doing?" Xie Zhen hurriedly stretched the bowl in his hand farther away, for fear that it would shake out and dirty the clothes on his body.
Xie Fei lowered his voice mysteriously and said, "You tell me honestly, are you going to go to the capital to be the imperial concubine?" ”
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Xie Zhen glanced at her, handed the bowl to the nurse on the side, and then grabbed Xie Fei and said, "Who told you this?" ”
Xie Fei naturally couldn't tell her that she was said by the Qin family, so he only said: "You don't care who sued me, you just say whether it's or isn't!" Don't lie to me, we're good sisters. ”
Xie Zhen said: "Since you said that you are a good sister, why don't you believe me?" How could I possibly go to that canary? ”
Xie Fei snorted lightly and said, "I don't care what canary you are!" I'll tell you first. Even if you become the imperial concubine, don't think that I will kneel for you! When the time comes, as soon as you come back, I will stay away! ”
Xie Zhen smiled: "Where can you avoid it?" Would you like to avoid your husband's house? ”
Xie Fei's face turned red. Spat her and said, "Why are you not ashamed? At such a young age, he opened his mouth and closed his mouth to say what his husband's family. ”
Xie Zhen said innocently: "What is this? I'm not thinking about you yet? You're going to be married. ”
"Oops!" Xie Fei stomped his foot in shame, reached out and gently pushed Xie Hao's body, and said angrily, "I won't tell you!" ”
When she said this, she turned and ran away.
She came back quite quickly, and the silver leaf who stayed in the house was relieved when she saw her.
Xie Fei said cautiously: "Madame hasn't come back yet, has she?" ”
Silver Leaf shook her head, reassuring her. I made her another cup of tea and told her to take a break.
Before Xie Fei finished his cup of tea, the Qin clan stepped in, and his face was still a little strange.
Xie Fei couldn't tell what her grandmother had said to her mother, and if it was a reprimand, then she would have to find an excuse to avoid it, so as not to be angry with her mother.
"Mother, you sit down first, Fei'er go and see Long'er." She stood up and said deftly.
She usually wouldn't go to see Xie Long three times a month, but now that she said this, Qin didn't know that she wanted to avoid it, but she was unexpectedly not angry, but said, "You sit down!" I have something to say to you! ”
Can't you avoid it? Xie Fei complained bitterly in his heart, but he didn't dare to show half a point on his face, so he only sat down obediently uneasily.
Qin said: "Fei'er, your grandmother showed you the family affairs. ”
Xie Fei was stunned, and only reacted after a few seconds, and suddenly jumped up and said loudly: "What? ”
Qin didn't reprimand her for making too much noise this time, but pulled her down with a kind face, and said, "You, you are so old and so unruly, if you marry into someone else's family, then it won't please your mother-in-law?" ”
She's not married yet! Mother used her mother-in-law to press her! Xie Fei was a little depressed, and felt that she wanted to run away, but she was not a child after all. So I reluctantly sat down, and couldn't help but say, "Mother, my sister hasn't married yet!" I still want to say kiss to my sister, otherwise it won't be reasonable! ”
Qin nodded and said, "You think about your sister." Ah, I also told your grandmother about this, but your grandmother said it, it depends on whether Fang'er has repented, she means. Send a grandmother to Xiaoshan tomorrow to have a look, you can't be slow here. ”
Grandmother co-authoring, does this mean a two-pronged approach? Xie Fei had a headache and was a little scared and nervous, just thinking about talking to Xie Zhen about this matter, although she was young and might not have any ideas, but there was no one else to talk to in this house except her.
Seeing her panicked, the Qin family knew that she was scared, so he comforted her and said, "You don't have to be afraid, this family business is what your grandmother looks at herself, and you know the other party." It's your cousin Jinsheng, how about it, are you relieved now? ”
Jin Sheng cousin? Xie Fei still had some impression of the name, but she had forgotten what the person looked like, and only remembered that at the banquet, the cousin named Jin Sheng seemed to be caught in the crowd and secretly glanced at her.
Sheffield's beauty has always been uncaring for these admirers.
Listen to Qin's words again: "If you want to say that your grandmother has always been fair, I only thought that she was in pain for the fourth room this time, but when I heard her say that, I knew that she still loved you very much in her heart." Not to mention whether the girl went to Beijing to be the imperial concubine. Even if she did it, with her ability at that age, she was designated to be bullied, and it was better to marry into the Jin family and be a clan wife. One day you will take charge of the house, and the Jin family will have to look at your eyes. ”
Xie Fei has always been simple, and he felt a headache when he thought of such a thing as housekeeping and bookkeeping, so he immediately covered his head and said that he had a headache and went up to bed.
Qin was angry with her, couldn't help but scold a few words, and left with a handkerchief.
Qin's departure. Xie Fei quietly got up again, still asking Silver Leaf to guard the door, and he secretly went to Xie Zhen again.
But when she got there, she began to squirm again, and she really didn't know how to speak. You can't just joke with her about her husband's family a moment ago, and at this moment she came to the door to complain because of her husband's family, right? Wouldn't Xie Zhen want to laugh at her like this?
Xie Zhen saw her go and return, and she looked hesitant again, so she simply spoke first: "What's the matter with you?" Is there anything to say directly? It's not like you. ”
Xie Fei said: "Then I told you, you are not allowed to laugh at me!" ”
Xie Hao nodded and said, "I definitely won't laugh at you." ”
Xie Fei then told Xie Zhen his mother's words, and as he spoke, his cheeks burned red uncontrollably, and he looked at Xie Zhen carefully, as if he was worried about being laughed at by her.
Xie Zhen didn't laugh at her, but asked her seriously, "Do you remember what Cousin Jin Sheng looks like?" ”
Xie Fei shook his head very honestly, and couldn't help but ask her, "Do you remember?" It's not going to be a big fat man, is it? It doesn't look ugly, does it? In that case, I won't even get married. ”
Xie Zhen said angrily: "Can you not be so childish?" How can you say that this is also your life's event, how can you just look at your face? ”
Xie Fei said: "You also said that it is a lifelong event, then I will face that face for the rest of my life, if it looks too cold, as soon as the hijab is lifted, I will be scared to death!" ”
She always has so many crooked reasoning, Xie Zhen shook her head, she couldn't argue with her.
"You can rest assured." Xie Zhen said: "I saw Cousin Jin Sheng before, although he was not very old at that time, he was very delicate, and now I think it should not be bad." ”
When she said this, Xie Fei was immediately relieved.
Xie Zhen saw her relaxed face, and couldn't help but laugh at her and said, "Why, I saw that you were still reluctant, why was it that at this moment, when I heard that the person was good, I was tempted?" ”
Xie Fei's face turned red again, and he said, "No! I was just...... It's just that...... Ahem, you say, I can call the shots about this? My grandmother and mother are moved, can I still refuse? ”
Xie Zhen smiled and didn't speak, the children's affairs, the parents' orders, and the matchmaker's words, they really can't be the masters themselves.
Xie Fei said again: "It's just that no matter how you look at it, it's a little bad." If I get married, won't I have to meet Jin Yu from time to time? I don't like her right now. ”
Xie Zhen smiled: "You don't like her, Jin Yu may wish that you, a flowery cousin-in-law, could be her companion!" ”
Xie Fei snorted: "In that case, I won't pay attention to her, I'd rather hide in the house every day and be a female celebrity than ignore her!" ”
Xie Zhen suddenly smiled bitterly. Xie Fei was the most impatient to be a female celebrity, but now she said that she would rather be a female celebrity than face Jin Yu, which shows that she is indeed disgusted with Jin Yu in her heart.
Xie Zhen didn't bother her anymore, but only persuaded: "Okay, okay, don't think too much, Cousin Jinsheng is not the same as her, and she won't meet every day at that time, if she comes to you, you can ignore her if you are willing, and if you don't want to, find an excuse to send her." ”
As soon as Xie Fei thought that he would be able to give Jin Yu a deflated meal at that time, his heart became happy again, and he clapped his hands and laughed: "Okay, good! Just do as you say, as soon as Jin Yu comes, I will be sick! Look at her so much, I'm embarrassed to look for me! ”
Xie Zhen said: "That's not good, as soon as she comes, you will call yourself sick, and your mother-in-law doesn't know the inside story, just think that you are not in good health, and it will not be good to be embarrassed with you at that time." ”
Xie Fei felt that this was not unreasonable, and immediately became distressed, "This is not good, that is not good, am I married to be a wife?" Or marry the angry? Forget it, it's better not to get married! ”
Xie Zhen didn't like that her words made Xie Fei afraid of marriage, and hurriedly said: "Alas, you are also in a hurry, I am just talking, what can I understand as a child?" It's just to chat with you, after you get married, you still have to deal with it yourself, if you don't understand anything, come back and ask the second aunt and grandmother. ”
Xie Fei said bitterly: "Other than that, there are no good ideas, but when I come back, you will not be in the mansion, it is really boring." ”
Xie Zhen smiled and comforted her: "Don't worry, I may be able to come back from Beijing soon, and I will bring you the best rouge in the capital when the time comes!" ”
"Really?" Xie Fei is really the age of beauty, and when she said that she had a good rouge gouache, she left all the unhappy things behind, and only pulled Xie Zhen to talk about the most popular outfits at the moment, and repeatedly told her not to forget to bring her rouge, only let Xie Zhen repeatedly reassure, and then reluctantly returned to her residence with peace of mind.
