Chapter 21: The Xie Family 3

Hearing that someone seemed to be walking towards the front yard in the direction of the east courtyard, Xie Shuyao looked curiously towards the courtyard gates of the two courtyards, a white-haired old man with crutches had already crossed the courtyard gate, the old man's eyes were looking in his direction, and the big Bo Hans and others who followed him also appeared in front of him one after another.

Xie Shuyao was about to tell his parents the news that his grandfather was coming, but he turned his face and saw that they all stood up, and it turned out that they had also seen it. Xie Shuyao secretly glanced at Hans beside the old man and asked him what was going on? Hans didn't seem to see his own eyes, and ignored her inquiry.

Xie Yingchang stood aside and said respectfully, "Dad, why are you here?" ”

Zhou Yiya just glanced at Hans behind the old man lightly, as if she didn't see him at all.

Old Man Xie ignored his unpromising son Xie Yingchang, directly skipped his existence, and asked his daughter-in-law Zhou Yiya: "I heard that you have been angry about Hans going to the military academy?" Don't let him go home for the New Year? ”

At this moment, Zhou Yiya turned her face and glanced at Hans Xie who was standing a little farther away, with a determined determination in her eyes: "This is his own choice!" ”

These words were not only to answer the old man's words, but also to Zhou Yiya's son Hans on the side.

The old man raised his eyebrows, the crutches in his hand lightly buckled the green bricks on the ground in the courtyard, and said in an unhurried tone: "It was arranged by the old man to serve the country, could it be that you are blaming the old man?" ”

The old man suddenly forced Xie's mother into a dilemma, Xie Shuyao and Xie's father secretly pinched a sweat for Xie's mother. The uncle of the Xie family on the side was waiting, with an imperceptible look of contempt on his face.

And Xie Hans, as the protagonist of the incident, could only stand aside and watch his grandfather and mother fight and couldn't speak, and his heart was extremely tormented. When his grandfather raised the question of putting his mother in a dilemma, he hoped that his mother could temporarily forgive himself in the face of his grandfather, and he was even more afraid that his mother's temper would be ruthless.

Zhou Yiya did not answer the old man's tricky question, but turned the contradiction to Xie Hansi on the side: "I'll ask you again, will you go home with me or go back to be a soldier?" ”

When Hans was struggling with whether his mother and grandfather would fall out, his mother suddenly kicked him at the thorny question of loyalty and filial piety, which brought him back to the center of the storm. As we all know, the center of the storm is the calmest, and when he returned to the center of the storm, Hans gathered the attention of everyone present, and he was also caught in a difficult struggle.

Silence –

Or silence -

Time seems to stand still at this moment.

Father Xie had the heart to break this deadlock, but he didn't dare to speak out because he was afraid that Old Man Xie would be on the side.

Xie Shuyao didn't like the silence like death, so he pretended to cough lightly, and after attracting everyone's attention, he smiled and said: "It's all a family, there's no need to make such a fuss, let's have something to say, if there is any problem, let's discuss it well-"

"Mouthy!" Uncle Xie suddenly interrupted Xie Shuyao's words and said contemptuously to Xie Shuyao.

The person who scolded him in front of him was his biological father of this body - Xie Yingchang, Xie Shuyao remembered the past that Uncle Wang told him in his mind, and he couldn't help but feel a little sad for his confused biological father, and he didn't even know that his biological daughter was standing in front of him!

These thoughts flashed in Xie Shuyao's mind, and he didn't show mercy because he was the biological father of his body, and said angrily to Uncle Xie: "This is our own family's business, who allows you to speak?" And grandpa didn't speak here, are you a grandfather and his old man doesn't exist? ”

The identity of the uncle of the Xie family made him unable to pull his face to argue with a little girl, so he turned the anger in his heart to the third brother Xie Yingchang, and asked through gritted teeth: "Third child, are all your children taught like this?" ”

These words not only scolded Xie Shuyao, but also secretly scolded Xie Hans for his indecision and deliberately put pressure on Xie Hans.

Xie Shuyao snorted coldly: "Salty and don't worry about eating radish, which green onion are you in charge of our family's affairs, you-"

Old Man Xie's angry goatee trembled, and he angrily slammed the green brick on the ground with his cane: "You both shut up for me!" Big and small, it's not big or small, and it's a joke to say it! ”

The father and daughter, who were originally biological, glared at each other with incompatible angry eyes, and then obediently closed their mouths.

The old man sighed suddenly, afraid that the two would make trouble again, and sent Xie Shuyao, who was on the side, to another place. "Shu Yao, you go to the kitchen and instruct the cook, let the cook cook a few more dishes tonight, and then go and call your second aunt's family in the West Courtyard over, and let's have a meal together."

Xie Shuyao understood Old Man Xie's intentions, and although she was a little angry in her heart, it was difficult for her to come out in front of the old man. After glaring at his biological father, he left in the direction of the kitchen with a stomach full of resentment.

When he was discharged from the hospital, Xie Shuyao found that a few servants who were eavesdropping on gossip were busy with the things in hand after seeing him coming, and Xie Shuyao, who was upset, didn't bother to pay attention to these idlers, and ran directly to the kitchen.

After the old man took Xie Shuyao away, he persuaded Zhou Yiya in a serious tone: "Hans enters Huangpu, this is a good thing, when he graduates from Huangpu, I will ask someone to let him find a good errand in the government, the best thing, why are you so ignorant of the third family?" ”

"All these years, there has been a war every year, in case one day," Xie Mu paused when she said this, and she didn't dare to say any further, "If he can't come back, then he will never come back!" ”

……

Xie Shuyao said hello to the kitchen, and told the kitchen to go outside to buy two roast ducks in Quanjude, and then left for the west courtyard.

After Xie Shuyao left the kitchen, a thin man asked Chef Sun curiously: "Master, I heard from Mother Li that Miss Fifth has visited the kiln to drink flower wine before, is this true?" ”

Chef Sun wiped his hand on his apron and took out a long cigarette stick, asked the apprentice to load the tobacco leaves and light the fire, and after taking a puff, he said: "Boy, let me tell you, do our business, don't inquire about the master's affairs, don't chew your tongue behind your back!" ”

The apprentice didn't know what was going on in his head, and suddenly said quite seriously: "Master, I think Miss Fifth looks better than Miss Six, and Miss Fifth would look better if she had long hair!" ”

"Ah...... Master, don't fight, I won't say it, I won't say it......"

Seeing that the little apprentice begged for mercy, Chef Sun took back the cigarette stick and took another puff of cigarette, and said to the apprentice who was still holding his head: "You, go to Quanjude to get two roast ducks from Yuquan Mountain, the duck doesn't need to be sliced, the fifth lady loves to eat their sweet noodle sauce, ask them to order more sweet noodle sauce!" ”

"Come on, master, I'll go now." As he spoke, he was about to go out, and when he walked to the door, he turned around and asked, "Master, has the fifth lady really visited the kiln?" ”

……

Xie Shuyao didn't know what happened in the kitchen, and she was reading an unfinished letter with a shocked face at the moment.

Here's the thing, after Xie Shuyao came to the West Courtyard to bring the word to the second aunt, she didn't want to get involved in the conflict between her mother and Hans anymore, so she stayed in the West Courtyard for the time being, planning to go back after they settled the matter.

Xie Shuyao had a good relationship with Xiao Min and Xiao Zhao of the second aunt's family, so she played with them in the room of the two sisters. In the middle of playing, the second aunt suddenly called Su Xin out, I don't know what it was for.

After Su Xin left, Xiao Zhao climbed onto the bed, opened a crack in the window and peeked out, and saw that her sister Su Xin was cleaning the mulberries she had just bought, and after confirming that it was safe, she suddenly took out a letter and handed it to Xie Shuyao, and said mysteriously: "This is the letter my sister wrote today, and it hasn't been sent yet!" ”

"And what are you doing for me?" Xie Shuyao said angrily and funny.

Xiao Zhao said innocently: "My sister said I couldn't watch it, but I didn't say that sister, you can't watch it." ”

Regarding Xiao Zhao's logic, Xie Shuyao had a black line on his face, so he educated Xiao Zhao seriously, telling her that it was wrong to peek at other people's letters, but Xie Shuyao's hand had already opened the envelope.

Xiao Zhao nodded while indicating that he would definitely accept Sister Yaoyao's profound education, while staring at the letter that Xie Shuyao had already taken out with expectant eyes.

Xie Shuyao took out a thin piece of letter paper inside, and there was still a little excitement in his heart, and carefully unfolded the folded letter paper, wanting to get a glimpse of the content of the letter......

"Repair:

How nice yesterday's moon was! I guess you'd be glad to see it, right?

Yesterday, the third aunt's brother who went to be a soldier came back, and the third aunt was not happy that he went to be a soldier, he secretly went to be a soldier, but the third aunt was very angry when she found out, so she didn't allow him to go home! This brother doesn't like me and Xiao Zhao as much as the fifth sister, the fifth sister is so good to me, you know that I love the fifth sister the most, and I love you differently, he is my relative, you are my lover. ”

Reading this, Xie Shuyao frowned slightly, the fifth sister is herself, but what is this "cultivation" that Su Xin called her lover? Could it be that she fell in love at school? Xie Shuyao quickly swept down with questions, hoping to mention the identity of this person later.

“…… Shen is talking about us everywhere at school, I'm not afraid, she's envying us...... You came so late every day, and when I arrived at school this morning, you were still there dreaming, what a dream. Xie Shuyao saw this, and it was certain that the "Xiu" was also in the Confucian School.

“…… How annoying, I waited for you in my sister's classroom for a long time, and you didn't come, but as soon as I left, you came again. Don't dream next morning and come early!

Love your Min forever. Xie Shuyao refolded the letter, and was shocked that he couldn't say a word for a long time, you must know that Xiao Min is only fifteen years old this year! Could it be that puppy love is already popular at this time?

Xiao Zhao pouted and said dissatisfiedly: "I haven't finished reading it yet!" ”

Seeing Xiao Zhao on the side, Xie Shuyao hurriedly asked Xiao Zhao to pack the letter and put it back in its place. The content of this letter can't be let Xiao Zhao know, in case she doesn't keep her mouth tight and leaks the news, things will become very troublesome, so she can only secretly persuade Su Xin.

Seeing Xiao Zhao's dissatisfied expression, Xie Shuyao said seriously: "Don't say anything about the letter, no one can say it, do you hear it?" ”

Seeing Xiao Zhao nodded solemnly.

Xie Shuyao took out the sugar-coated cannonball again and coaxed: "This is the secret between me and Xiao Zhao, as long as you keep the secret, next time I will take you to eat your favorite honey cake!" ”

"Sister Yaoyao, look-what is this?" Su Xin ran over with a plate of black mulberries and said.

……

Bang - Bang -

Bang –

Hearing three explosions that looked like firecrackers suddenly coming from the east, Xie Shuyao guessed that it might be a bear child who was setting off firecrackers, so she didn't care, and continued to spit out her mulberry-blackened tongue to Xiao Min Xiaozhao.

When Xie Shuyao was playing tricks on the Xiao Zhao sisters, a maid suddenly hurriedly ran to the west courtyard and shouted: "Oh no, second grandma, the old lady let people shoot and kill!" ”
