Chapter 68: Helplessness (Addition)
Jiang Ling was clinking in the kitchen and chopping vegetables and stewing meat, while Xie Roujia put out the dim sum given by Xie Wenjun for Shao Mingqing to eat.
"Didn't you say you came back at fifteen?" She asked.
"Master Xie received the good news and couldn't wait to come back and share it with everyone." Shao Mingqing lay crooked on the mat and said lazily, "We have been traveling day and night all the time, and we almost exhausted me." ”
Xie Roujia glanced at him and saw that he was still dressed, and his face was also full of tiredness.
"I don't know how to wash and change clothes first." She said, shouting out to Shui Ying.
Shui Ying ran in response.
"You go and bring some of your young master's things, let him wash and change clothes here, and rest here at night." Xie Roujia said.
Shao Mingqing sighed.
"I'm sorry about that." He said, lying down but not moving.
"Okay, no one will clean up your place, I|excellent|excellent|small|say|more|new|most|fast|WWW.UUXS.CC|I originally wanted to wait for a few days to clean up, but you suddenly arrived early." Xie Roujia said, "It's cold and damp, how to rest." ”
Shao Mingqing sighed, and Shui Ying had already run out happily.
"You rest first, I'll go boil the water." Xie Roujia said.
"I'm sorry, I'll go boil water." Shao Mingqing said.
"Aren't you tired?" Xie Roujia glanced at him and said.
Shao Mingqing smiled.
"Tired, it's better for you to go, I'm just polite, don't take it seriously." He said.
Xie Roujia snorted, got up and went out.
The night was cloudy, the lanterns were lit in the courtyard, Xie Roujia walked back and forth, and Jiang Ling's inquiry, the aroma of the food was overflowing, Shao Mingqing let out a long breath of relief, rested his head on his arm and closed his eyes.

With the return of Xie Wenxing, the Xie family first celebrated the emperor's reward for three days, and then walked around with the officialdom for a few days, and waited until they could sit down and take a breath Xie Wenxing talked about the specific things in the capital.
When she heard that Shao Mingqing had cut down a piece of phoenix blood stone without permission, Mrs. Xie was so shocked that she got up and knocked over the tea bowl.
"Beat this bastard to death in no time!" She shouted.
Xie Wenxing stretched out his hand and pulled her to sit down.
"It should have been killed, but it wasn't killed then, and it can't be killed now." He said, "The Shao family will definitely not give up, now the Shao family values Shao Mingqing more than before, and the Xuan Zhenzi in the capital will not give up, he should understand in his heart that this phoenix blood stone is not what our Xie family wants to give to him, but it is helpless, if you look at the situation, Xuan Zhenzi actually looks more at Shao Mingqing's feelings, I think this time the emperor will send an envoy to participate in our March 3rd, most of which is the credit of this old way." ”
Mrs. Xie exhaled.
"Do you think, if we treat Shao Mingqing badly now, what will Lao Dao think? will only think that we are jealous of Shao Mingqing because of the matter of the phoenix blood stone, and think that our Xie family is dissatisfied with him, and it is very likely that he will take action against our Xie family first in order to never suffer in the future. Xie Wenxing continued.
"Then this is to provoke the enemy for no reason?" Mrs. Xie said, "It's because of Shao Mingqing's burden." ”
"An enemy is still a benefactor, in fact, it's just a thought." Xie Wenxing said with a smile, "You don't think about things in a bad way, think about the good." ”
"He dares to cut down the phoenix bloodstone, I really don't know what to think of him." Mrs. Xie said.
"Actually, it's very simple, just turn him into a member of our Xie family." Xie Wenxing said.
Mrs. Xie frowned.
"Don't want to pay attention to Huihui, we Huihui won't want to eat horses with grass." She said.
Xie Wenxing smiled.
"Jiajia can't either." Mrs. Xie immediately said, "One impure mind is enough, and if the two of them get together, our Xie family may be destroyed in their hands." ”
Xie Wenxing smiled and nodded.
"Of course not, getting married, getting married, getting married, not hating." "Of course, everyone is satisfied." ”
Mrs. Xie nodded.
"But as soon as I think of this kid, my heart is furious." She sat up again and said angrily, "Are we being pinched by him?" ”
"He has pinched us, we can also pinch him, pinch him, we will stabilize the relationship with Xuan Zhenzi in the capital, and when it stabilizes, Xuan Zhenzi accepts the sincerity of our Xie family, it doesn't matter to him, it will be much easier to send it away when the time comes." Xie Wenxing said.
Mrs. Xie felt a lot better.
"And who do you think is suitable?" She asked.
"It's not in a hurry, you pass the word to the people below, and whoever is interested will naturally come to you." Xie Wenxing said, "It's not like we forced them, it's so sincere." ”
Mrs. Xie smiled and nodded.
Yes, she will never do anything to assign relatives to people at will, they are all chosen by those people themselves, and they are willing, and it has nothing to do with her.
"Is the news in the capital confirmed?" She asked again.
At present, the most important thing for the Xie family is to welcome the upcoming March 3rd, and the third March 3rd with the emperor's personal envoy coming.
"I saw the adults on Kuizhou Road yesterday, and the news hasn't come yet." Xie Wenxing said, "It's not news that it won't come, it's definitely coming, it's just that the news of who will be who will be has not yet been decided." ”
"It's almost February, and the first audition is going to be ready." Mrs. Xie said.
"No problem, I heard from the gentlemen, the little girls are working hard." Xie Wenxing said with a smile.
"I hope that on March 3rd, there will be a vision." Mrs. Xie said.
For example, Mrs. Xie's witch dance was like that.
"This, we can't compare with other people's families, other people's families are optimistic about the sky in advance, and then choose the day to make some visions, our family's days are mostly fixed." Xie Wenxing smiled, "Don't think about it, look at the sky." ”
Look at the sky.
It's this look at the sky that sometimes makes people unfair.
Mrs. Xie let out a sullen breath.
Out of the first month, on the second day of February, the closure of Yushan Mountain ended, and Mrs. Xie personally came to hold a mine opening sacrifice.
The mine horn that had been rested for a year resounded all over the mountains.
"It's been a long time since I've seen this spirit." Several overseers also had to admit it.
However, the cost of eating and not working for nothing, that is, Yushan Mine can not care because it is sure that there is high-quality sand, and other mines can be reluctant.
Looking at Old Madam Xie who was about to leave, Shao Mingqing was a little surprised.
"The old lady wants to go back to Pengshui?" He asked.
Old Madam Xie hummed.
"Megumi is going to have an audition on March 3rd." She said.
This kind of occasion as a grandmother must be present.
Shao Mingqing nodded.
"Oh yes." Old Madam Xie stopped thinking of something and asked, "What about Brother An?" ”
"I'm in the mine." Shao Mingqing said.
"You tell him later, you don't have to go into the mine, come back to Pengshui with me." Mrs. Xie said, "After March 3, Huihui should come into contact with the mine and cinnabar, and I plan to let him accompany Huihui." ”
Shao Mingqing's footsteps stopped.
"Old lady." He said, "Is this your plan, or is it Miss Megumi's plan?" ”
Old Madam Xie looked at him.
"Megumi is going to do it." She said without hesitation.
"Can you not go then?" Shao Mingqing asked.
"I can't." Old Madam Xie said.
Shao Mingqing stepped in front of Old Madam Xie.
"Old lady, do you know that some people don't want something for themselves, but just don't like others to have it, so she wants to take it away?" He said.
Old Madam Xie nodded.
"I know." She said.
Shao Mingqing was stunned.
"You know?" He repeated.
Old Madam Xie nodded.
"Yes, I know." She said, "But so what, no matter what that person wants this person for, I know what this person has done in the past, and this person is also very suitable to do this, Young Master Shao, why do you say I don't agree?" ”
Shao Mingqing looked at her and nodded.
"Yes, you are right, you are the old lady of Xie, not only a grandmother, but also the old lady of the Xie family, for you, the affairs of the Xie family are the most important." He said, smiling wryly again, "I just feel a little helpless." ”
Old Madam Xie hummed.
"There are a lot of helpless things." She said, "And you, you are already about to be selected as a son-in-law in the Xie family, I have met several girls, and it is estimated that it will not be long before you can be the groom." ”
Shao Mingqing's eyes widened, and his expression was stunned.
No, Brother An is not the only one who is unlucky, it turns out that there is also him.
