Chapter Twenty-Seven: A Wave Unsettled, Wave Upon Rise

On the second day, Mrs. Meng arrived at Xie's house early. It's just that he didn't make a big splash this time, he only brought a small guy with him, and he didn't go through the main door, but quietly entered the house through the side door. When the second master heard that he was coming, he hurried to the second door to greet him, and after the two exchanged pleasantries for a while, they stayed in the outer study for three full hours, and even lunch was sent to the study. When it was time to eat in the evening, Mrs. Meng said that there was still an urgent matter that could not be left for dinner, and got up to say goodbye. Because at that time, the two sent out all the servants of the little servant, and no one knew what the two sides were talking about.

As soon as the old lady Meng left, the second old man immediately entered the old lady's yard, and he didn't know what was going on, the second old man chatted about a cup of tea in the old lady's room, and the old lady even postponed the time for dinner.

It didn't take long for Rong's mother to come to Qingfeng Garden. At that time, Xie An had just had dinner and was about to take Aimo Aiyan to the courtyard to consume food, knowing that Rong's mother had nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, so she had to dispel her thoughts.

Rong's mother also invited Xie An and explained her intentions. said that the doctor had instructed Xie Anyi to recuperate for a while, not to disturb, and to rest more, and Mrs. Xie cherished Xie Anyi, so she put her mind into it. In the end, I thought that the Xie family had a Zhuangzi in the north of Weicheng, and there were masters who had calculated that the feng shui was excellent, and the water and soil were very supportive. It is very close to Jing'an Temple, it only takes an hour to go by carriage, and in the past, it may have been blessed by the treasure temple, and the income has always been the best among several Zhuangzi. If Xie An could live there for a while, his illness would naturally get better sooner. The words were all good for Mrs. Xie, and there was no mention that Xie An was also related to the Meng family.

Xie An didn't have any inappropriate feelings about this, he just felt that it was good to go to Zhuangzi to relax, so he only responded, "It's all up to your grandmother." Aimo was very angry, but she didn't have the right to speak, so she could only be angry next to her.

Rong's mother obviously didn't expect Xie Anyi to agree so happily, which made the words that she had prepared for a long time to persuade Xie Anyi to swallow in her stomach and useless. But fortunately, her mission has been completed, and it is surprisingly smooth. When she was about to go out, she seemed to suddenly think of something, stopped and said: "By the way, the old lady also said that the mother Wang was in charge of the Zhuangzi before, and she was very familiar with the Zhuangzi, both the environment and the people, and this time with her, the old lady will feel at ease." ”

Xie An was also stunned for a moment, and said, "Grandmother's arrangement An can not be more assured." Thank you grandmother. ”

Rong's mother was still very satisfied with her attitude, nodded, and went back to her life.

As soon as Rong's mother walked out of the courtyard gate of Qingfeng Garden, Aimo couldn't help it anymore: "Girl, they are really too deceitful. Are you really going to send us to Zhuangzi?! Winter is coming soon, and the supply of Zhuangzi is definitely not enough, in case there is no silver silk carbon, how can this winter be over? ”

Xie An also smiled, he couldn't go to the yard to eat, so he simply took off his shoes, leaned on the couch, and took a book to look at it with relish. Seeing that Aimo wanted to speak and stopped, she really couldn't help laughing: "Okay, okay, Mother Rong didn't say when to leave, you and Ai Yan took advantage of the time to quickly put away the things and put them all up." The little bit of silver in my hand and the supplements sent from the various courtyards this time must be loaded. Oh, by the way, bring all the books in my room. After saying that, he no longer paid attention to Aimo and immersed himself in the sea of books.

Aimo Aiyan discussed it and found that there was really no other way than to listen to the girl's words and go to Zhuangzi obediently. can only be as the girl said, the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge.

……

The people under the master and the subordinates in Qingfeng Garden have let go of the burden in their hearts, and their lives are very comfortable. But Mrs. Xie really had trouble sleeping and eating, and she was very troubled.

It turned out that just the day before yesterday, the eldest lord in Beijing came with a letter. The old lady happily took it out, but her heart was cold when she saw it. The eldest lord did not greet the old lady as before, but directly said the matter of Beijing.

There is one thing that Jingzhong has been talking about recently, that is, the relationship between the Xie and Meng families. It is said that the Xie family wants to marry the concubine to the Meng family's concubine, but because the Xie family's concubine is not talented, the Meng family asked to accept a concubine first. This can be said to be a stone in the Jingzhong family to stir up a thousand waves, and everyone showed their disdain and contempt for the Xie and Meng families when they talked about this matter, after all, this kind of thing cannot be done by other families, it is too despicable.

The Xie and Meng families were shocked when they heard about this, and sent people to investigate overnight, but finally found that the rumors were actually from the Liu family in Weicheng. The two families touched the melons again and found that the third wife of the Liu family, Meng Shi, had really come to the Xie family, and wanted to marry the daughter of the family in the name of Concubine Teng.

The eldest lord of the Xie family was very angry when he learned about this, and immediately went to find the eldest master Meng to theorize, and his words were very excited, which made the two eldest masters almost turn their faces. Master Xie grabbed the third wife of the Liu family, the Meng family, and said that the Meng family was talking about things, and he insisted that the Meng family was behind the ghost. The eldest master of the Meng family was speechless, but he was really unreasonable, and the whole dumb person ate Coptis chinensis, and he couldn't say anything about his suffering.

Fortunately, the two eldest lords are usually people who have lived in the court for a long time, so they decided not to make a public announcement, that is, to make a gesture, and finally agreed to write letters to their families separately to ask about the situation and verify the matter.

Master Xie also specially instructed Mrs. Xie that the two families had already agreed before this family affair that they would marry the seventh sister Xie An to Meng Junchi. Although it is only a verbal negotiation, it is difficult for a gentleman to chase after him, and he must not break his word. If the two families want to calm down this turmoil, they can only exchange Geng posts as much as possible and get married as soon as possible, so as to block the mouths of the people.

At the end of the letter, it was also mentioned that the Meng family would send a matchmaker to propose marriage in the near future, and asked Mrs. Xie to prepare the seventh sister's Geng post.

After reading the letter, Mrs. Xie only felt that her chest was clogged in panic, and she almost couldn't breathe. Fortunately, Rong's mother was by her side, and she pinched and pushed her back, so she was spared.

What made Mrs. Xie embarrassed was Mrs. Meng's words.

It turned out that when Mrs. Meng came to the door that day, she said that recently, passing through Weicheng, she knew that the Xie family was here, so she wanted to meet her future in-laws and recognize the door by the way. But when I arrived in Weicheng, I heard that the seventh sister had lost her soul. I was a little hesitant about this family business. Later, I heard that the eighth sister and the seventh sister are almost the same, but the temperament is different, so I wanted to change the eighth sister.

This is exactly what the Xie family wants. That's why the old lady wanted the seventh sister Xie An to hide in the Zhuangzi, and then she only said that it was the eighth sister's family affair that was decided early in the morning, and outsiders had no way of knowing and nothing to say.

It's good now, but Master Xie wrote to say that it must be the seventh sister, how should this be? It's no wonder that she is fast, as soon as she decided on this matter, she sent someone to send a letter to Master Xie San, and now Master Xie San should have gotten the news and sent someone to send Eighth Sister back.
