Chapter 3: Grace

Xu Qing was stunned, stunned, and stupid.

Since he rescued her, Xie Nian has always been gentle and elegant in front of her, even when he questioned her a few years ago, he didn't see his expression so scary. She did put some thought into it back then, she didn't expect his wife to be sick, she just thought that she was already his person, could she still marry someone else. She knew that she was from a humble background, and where could she enter a family like the Xie family if she wanted to, but as long as she had a place to stay, even if it was a firewood house where people lived, her requirements were as humble as her background.

She really didn't expect that just a false word would make him lose his wife.

From the moment he knew that his wife had died, Xu Qing knew that if she wanted to enter the Xie family in this life, she might be a luxury.

But she is innocent, how can she hope to marry a husband who loves her, she only has him. Even if he hadn't looked at her since. She stayed in Jian'an, she lived in a grass shed, she washed people's clothes, and she saw the faces of the world. She has worked hard from the double decade to the present. She thought that God had finally favored her, Xie Nian finally came to see her, he looked at her, his eyes were a little deep, she didn't know what he was thinking, she never saw through him.

But she could see that there was a hint of pity in his eyes.

She knew that the only mercy was her future. He told her that he could take her into the Xie family, but all he could give was worry-free food and clothing.

He couldn't give her anything else. He also said that if she didn't want to, he could find her a home and marry her off in style. He is not to blame for everything before...... She had waited for him for so many years, how could she nod. Being able to enter the Xie clan is already a luxury for her, where would she refuse. It is already excellent to have no worries about food and clothing, it is better than her living in a grass hut and not having enough meals.

Seeing her nod, he was silent for a long time before finally telling her.

Let her enter the Xie family, and there are other conditions. The next day, he brought a child in his arms. It's a small lump, but it's only a few days old. The eyes could only barely open a small slit. Xu Qing was shocked, although he was eager to know whose child this was? It's worth his painstaking arrangement. It turned out that she was only taken into the Xie family for the sake of this child.

Is this the child of Xie Nian?

But if it was really his child, would he have gone to such great lengths to arrange it? He could have taken the child into the house in a dignified manner...... But if it weren't, he wouldn't have been able to make such an arrangement. also gave the child's surname 'Xie' a thank word, and the child was destined to have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of his life.

She was a little surprised, but she wisely chose not to ask, and then took the child without saying a word.

She told herself that Bento was really born to her, and as long as she was good to this child, Xie Nian would always miss her, even if it was good at all.

It's just that time has shattered all the illusions of beauty. She was carried into Xie's by a small sedan chair and sent directly to the small cross-courtyard.

The main room has two transepts. That's all she can see. There is no serving girl, no cleaning mother-in-law, and there is not even a small stove in the yard.

Her three meals a day are delivered by her mother-in-law, and if the mother-in-law has something to do or forgets one day, she will be hungry. Is this the day she has been waiting for many years and looking forward to for many years? Fortunately, before entering the house, she used the silver given by Xie Nian to buy two girls, or if she didn't get into the Xie family, I am afraid that there would not even be anyone to talk to.

Where do people live such days?

and the child Xie Nian hugged her to raise. She thought she wouldn't come to see her, child, Xie Nian always had to be a little scrupulous.

But I don't want the whole Xie family to seem that no one cares about that child, even if that child is the nominal fifth miss of the Xie family. She endured it for days. Only then did she have to walk out of the courtyard, no one stopped her, maybe the Xie family felt that it was a waste to send someone to look at her, after all, with her background, she could join the Xie family, but she should be satisfied. How dare you make trouble in the Xie family's house.

It was impossible for her to see Xie Nian. Xie rested in the outer courtyard most of the time, and she naturally couldn't get out of the Hanging Flower Gate.

The only thing she could ask to see was Xie Ke.

But a subordinate in Xie Ke's courtyard sent her away easily...... She was ruthless, thinking that she wanted to see Xie Nian no matter what, she figured it out, if she wanted to have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of her life, she had to give birth to her eldest son for Xie Nian. Although she didn't join the Xie family for a long time, she also let the girl find out some news, and the entire Xie family's inner house was in charge of Mrs. Xie. And Mrs. Xie's heart disease is that the fourth master has no children.

This made Xu Qing see hope.

She took advantage of Xie Nian tonight to visit Xie Ke, and used all her savings to buy a mother-in-law who could watch the door in the inner courtyard, and then followed. Naturally, the mother-in-law didn't know her identity, but she was in which courtyard she was, and she had to leave the house overnight because of an urgent matter at home......

"Fourth master, Qing'er has nothing to ask for, just ask for the master, take pity on Qing'er. Qing'er is not young...... I don't dare to ask for the favor of the lord. Just ask for ...... Give Qing'er a chance to repay her master. Let Qing'er serve her grandfather ......" Xu Qing said with a red face, she was from a humble background, but this kind of thing is always embarrassing when it comes out of a woman's mouth.

If ~ she is kicked out today, don't think about another chance in the future.

The silver in her hand is also very small, and she can no longer spend the silver to support her subordinates.

Xu Qing naturally didn't know about Xie Nian's struggle, and he didn't bother to know. If it was a few years ago, he might have been blinded by her 'weakness', but now. “…… Some I don't want to repeat, get out. Xie Nian frowned, and then disdained to look at Xu Qing. Xu Qing bit his lip and bit the sweet taste in his mouth, and then said softly: "Master, Qing'er really doesn't ask for much, Qing'er just wants to repay the master, Qing'er knows that the old lady has been looking forward to the master to have a person to inherit the incense, the master has saved Qing'er's life, and Qing'er is willing to go to the soup for the master." Qing'er is willing...... Willing to ...... for the grandfather"

What is the use of Xu Qing, how can Xie Nian still not understand.

He felt that there was nothing strange in this world. Xu Qing would only have secretly used some careful thinking a few years ago. didn't want to live a hard life for a few years, but not only did she not learn to be obedient, but she also became so insatiable.

Xie Nian felt disgusted.

How could I ...... back then? I regret not at the beginning, I regret not at the beginning. Xie Nian didn't even bother to give a look to Xu Qing, who thought he was charming. only raised his voice and called Cheng Shancai.

The door of the study was quickly pushed open, and when he saw Xu Qing, Cheng Shancai's eyes sank.

"Master, what do you command?" "Hold Sister Poor to your daughter-in-law, and say that you have worked hard for her." Cheng Shancai didn't ask much, and replied yes in a condensed voice. turned around and walked out, Xu Qing was really stupid at this time.

It took a long time to react.

If Xie Nian let Sister Pian take her away, her last reliance would be gone...... "Master, the slave is wrong, the slave is wrong, the slave must take good care of Sister Pian, and the slave will never ...... Wishful thinking. ”

Xie Nian got up and left, without even looking at Xu Qing.

Xu Qing's body finally fell to the ground in a decadent softness.

She vaguely knew in her heart that her last hope was shattered......

The child was sent by his mother-in-law when Xie Ke was washing early the next morning, and only said what the fourth master meant, and the child will be brought by Cheng in the future. Cheng took the child, looked at this small group, and looked embarrassed, she couldn't help but look at Xie Ke. "Sister, how is this good? The slave is so old, how can she bring such a young child? The child is innocent, although thinking of the child's mother, Cheng is like swallowing a fly, and feels that the jade has lost the face of a woman. This kid has the blood of the Xie family in his body...... What's more, the child who has been through the full moon has gradually grown up, small ~ white ~ tender, and a pair of eyes blinking around, as if they moved when they heard the sound. It's also a bit flattering.

Leaving aside the cherished jade, the Cheng family is quite rare for this child.

"Since it was arranged by my father, then the nurse should bother more. As for the child's nurse, let's find another one. As long as people are clean, they don't have to care. Cheng nodded, and that was the only way.

What's more, in comparison, she would rather suffer a little by herself and hand over this child to the Xu family, which is a really disgusting thing.

Xie Ke poked his head to look at Sister Pian, a small lump, naturally, Xie Ke's mind appeared the appearance of his daughter Sister Ying. This child was born a little stronger than Sister Ying'er when she was a child. She remembered that when Sister Ying'er first landed, she was a small group, so her mother said behind her back that she was not a prosperous man, or she barely gave birth to a child, and she also followed her, looking frail.

Xie Ke suddenly felt a little impetuous, and didn't want to dwell on the child's issue anymore.

"In that case, the nurse will work harder. This child is still taken by the nurse, it is really inconvenient to stay in the hospital. If the nurse is lacking in skills, she will let Cong Rui and Yuhui help on the side. ”

Cheng hurriedly shook her head, I don't know if it was her delusion, why did she think that her sister didn't seem to like her sister.

No, Cheng Shi was relieved when he thought about it.

What is the background of my own girl, and what is the background of my sister. This poor sister came to the world, for the Xie family, it is a burden at all, it is a desecration of the Xie family's lintel, and it is common sense that her own girl does not like it. "That's not necessary, the slave maid immediately asked Shancai to find a suitable nurse, and the nurse took care of it, and the slave didn't have to make any effort. It's just that I'm afraid that there will be fewer slaves and maids in the courtyard in the future, and my sister should not blame. Xie Ke nodded, and watched Cheng carry the child out of the hospital.

Xie Ke breathed a sigh of relief.

It's not that she doesn't like Sister Pity, a person can't choose her background, so all the mistakes have nothing to do with Sister Pity.

She's just ......

I feel more and more that my future is uncertain, and she is not in a hurry if her family affairs are not settled. But that Qi Lu ...... After all, like a thorn, choked in Xie Ke's throat.

She sent someone to send a letter to her uncle, and I don't know if my uncle has received it, and when will she be able to reply? She misses Chu Ye very much now, she has lived in the Chu family for seven years, in fact, she is most often the eldest uncle and second uncle, but in Xie Ke's heart, she and her younger uncle Chu Ye are the closest, that is, the third uncle who gave birth to the same face, Xie Ke always felt a little rusty.
