Volume 2 This Goes to Xie Mansion Chapter 258, Cause and Effect
Chapter 258, Antecedents and Consequences
On the way back from Changsheng and Jinshu, they happened to run into a full house. Jin Shu was without Sister Winnie and Coke Kexi, and the thirteen-year-old full house just covered their shortcomings, so Jin Shu pinned all her thoughts and love for the four of them on the half-grown little girl Manwu, and glued to her very tightly.
Manwu is also very happy that he has met two good masters who are very good with each other, and of course he is happy to play with her. Seeing the full house, Jin Shu greeted her with a smile on her face, and pulled the full house to play with her sandbag, and the full house was happy to play together, and kept silent about Changsheng not mentioning the apple being robbed by Jinwen, only saying that the third master was waiting for her in the house.
Changsheng remembered very sensitively that she had just taken Jinshu to see the old lady, although she was as polite and affectionate as before, but Jinshu's gaze was much colder, although she covered it up well, Changsheng still found out, and was secretly frightened by this, and Mingjing rarely looked for her at this time in order to avoid suspicion, could it be that something happened to Mingqing? Or is there any bad news?
She instructed the house to take care of Jinshu, and hurried back to the house. Mingjing was looking through a miscellaneous book she often read, and when she saw Changsheng coming in, a warm smile appeared on her face, and the affection in her eyes couldn't be concealed.
He put down the book and went up to meet him, and asked with concern, "Are you tired?" You originally only taught Jinshu one, but now you have to teach three, Jinwen is stubborn, Jinshu is young and ignorant, isn't it very hard? Did they do anything excessive? Oh, what did Shu'er do? ”
Changsheng looked at him puzzled, wondering why he asked about this today, and saluted according to the rules, and said with a smile: "Shu'er and Manwu went to play together." It's just that the third master asked about this today? Do you care about me? Or do you care about the two sons? Actually, I'm not tired, no matter how stubborn Jinwen is, no matter how young Jinshu is, but as a child, I always have a sense of awe for my husband, and they are obedient in front of me. As for what's behind it, I don't care, I'm just Jinshu's upbringing aunt, just because there is no teacher at the moment who dares to go to the door of the Xie family, the old lady has no choice but to let me teach them to read temporarily, it's not a real gentleman, so I don't need to care too much, they have such a pair of parents, I don't want to go through that muddy water, and in the end, I don't want to work hard and stay inside and outside is not a person"
Mingjing smiled, this is exactly what he thinks, Changsheng coincides with him, the temporary teacher will be replaced at any time, just do enough superficial work. She saw very clearly that she was originally hired by Mingche, Mingqing was **** to her, Lin Xinhui rejected her and beware of her, the two didn't trust her at all, how could they agree with her Jinwen and Jinshu's education? If it is not suitable in one sentence, it will cause trouble, so she might as well save some trouble, only teach to do knowledge and not teach to be a person, as long as it is enough to shock them and not make trouble in class.
It's not that she's selfish, it's like this, some people are more annoying to help than not to help, and some things are worse than not doing, Changsheng knows his position very well, and he also knows how to pursue advantages and avoid disadvantages.
The two looked at each other and smiled nonchalantly, and never talked about the topic again, because there was something more important than that.
Changsheng said directly: "I just took Shu'er to the old lady, she sent someone to ask us to go, and after we went, we didn't say anything, just asked about some knowledge and food and clothing as usual, it looks the same as before, but I feel that her attitude towards me and Shu'er is very different from the past."
Mingjing's heart moved, and he immediately understood what was going on. Their mother and son have always been like this, generally seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages, following red and white, probably after hearing the news of the eldest brother, they are too lazy to perfunctory Changsheng and Jinshu. Thinking that in the process of growing up, the old lady was generally not bad to herself, and she didn't use too many stepmother methods, it should be said that her heart was not very bad, and the old lady was a person with a deep city, it was impossible for Changsheng to notice it so quickly.
He still said with some doubts: "The old lady's city is extremely deep, and it has always been difficult to see her mind clearly, so it is impossible for you to see something so quickly, right?" ”
Changsheng shook his head: "Her city is very deep, and today she is also affectionate and concerned about me and Shu'er, it is her eyes that betray the secret, because no matter how kind her attitude is, her eyes are full of coldness, I can see that she hates Jinshu and will not pity her at all." You don't have to lie to me, tell me what's going on? If I want to guess, it should be related to the uncle
Mingjing smiled bitterly: "You're right, in fact, I didn't intend to hide it from you." The eldest sister sent a letter and told me about the eldest brother, I would never have thought that things would turn out like that, and I can't believe it until now."
Mingjing smiled bitterly and talked about Mingche's current situation and the root cause of the Xie family's misfortune.
Changsheng sighed again and again, she couldn't have imagined that the old lady and the Pei family had spent so much thought to make Ming Che turn their backs on King Qin and join the crown prince, Ming Che didn't buy their account at all on the surface, everyone thought that Ming Che was loyal to King Qin and disdained the prince at all, so although she clearly knew the result of the change in Xuanwu Gate, and knew that in the end the world would return to King Chun, so she was very relieved, and never thought of reminding Ming Che. Because she clearly knows the outcome of the matter, and knows that Mingche will have a bright future if she follows the right master.
Who knew that the result was like this, Ming Che's incomparable loyalty to King Qin on the surface, as if nothing would change him, who knew that this loyalty was only on the surface, the two had already secretly communicated with each other, to put it bluntly, it was stepping on two boats, he was really hidden, everyone was deceived by him, he did it really secretly, probably only he and the prince knew the truth.
concealed it so well, even Mingjing didn't know, maybe it was to better serve the crown prince when King Qin was not defended, maybe it was to make his wealth and the net worth of the Xie family more secure, no matter who was the ultimate victor, it was a matter of Mingche's benefit, so as not to bet on the wrong treasure and die in the end without a place to be buried.
He calculated very well, and after Changsheng's initial stunnedness, he also felt that it was not so difficult to understand. Because Ming Che understands the strength of King Qin, he is an ancient person after all, and he will not know any changes in the Xuanwu Sect at all, let alone be completely sure that King Qin will win. Behind him are Shu'er, men, women and children of the Xie family, so he can't afford to gamble, so on the one hand, he is loyal to King Qin on the surface, and on the other hand, he secretly shows favor to the prince.
After the death of the crown prince, if this secret will not be discovered, and Mingche is still a courtier who is deeply trusted and relied on by Li Shimin, and he will be added to the rank and become famous, and the future will be extremely bright, and the glory and wealth of the Xie family will be more secure.
It's a pity that Li Shimin found out that he hated him very much, more than he hated his former enemies, because the betrayal of the most trusted person was the most deadly, the most humiliating, and the most hurtful.
