Chapter 190: Getting down to business

Ke Mingxu withdrew his gaze and glanced down at the thoughtful Jinghu, "It's not too early, the wind is gradually picking up on the river, it's a little cool, isn't it time for the little county lord to go back." ”

Jinghu shook his head, "I don't feel cold. He asked him again, "Is Master Xiao Ke feeling cold?" She reached out and touched his hand on the side of the boat, "It seems to be a little cold." ”

"I don't feel cold, but I'm afraid that the maids of the little county lord won't be able to find you, and they will be anxious because of this."

What he said seemed to mean something. Mama Liu's tough attitude during the day, he shouldn't be unaware, I'm afraid it's alluding to this.

But as far as Jinghu is concerned, if it is because of the champion in front of her, she will be scolded by Mama Liu when she goes back, and she will not be afraid.

"It's good that Master Xiao Ke doesn't feel cold, in fact, I still have something I want to ask you."

Ke Mingxu glanced at her when he heard this, and there was some suspicion in his eyes.

Jinghu was speechless, although she had said so many dispensable words before, she really had something to ask, not that she was looking for something.

"I want to ask Master Xiao Ke, is Mrs. Xie's husband your first uncle? and the sister of the Xie family is a few things. ”

By the way, she also wanted to ask Mrs. Xie's maiden family which one was, in Yanjing for so many years, she rarely met such a wife who couldn't socialize.

Ke Mingxu replied to her, "It's my fourth aunt, and her maiden family is the Tan family in Yichang, and she has produced several imperial histories." The world praises the Tan family for their loyalty and uprightness, and although my aunt is a woman, she has also inherited the character of the Tan family. ”

If you say it well, you are loyal and upright, but if you don't say it well, you don't know how to turn around. It is in line with the performance of the fourth wife of the Xie family today. It seems that Ke Mingxu also understands what she really wants to ask.

"My mother has a brother, the fourth master of the Xie family, and a younger brother, the seventh master of the Xie family. The Xie family's rooms are all sorted together, so it sounds like there are many brothers and sisters. ”

"Actually, my maternal grandfather was the third son of my maternal great-grandfather, and he was a cabinet assistant during the Yuan Zhao Dynasty, so he was familiar with my grandfather and gave my mother to my father. Later, due to illness, the current Xie family still respects him. ”

He also said: "As for Sister Ying'er, she is eight." She has only one sister, who has been married a few years ago, became the princess of Mingqing Wang, and settled in Hangzhou. ”

Unexpectedly, the fourth wife of the Xie family did not have a son. Everyone is a big family, living together, if you don't have a son, you will always be bullied.

She had heard her mother say that the room of Zhao Wuniang of the Zhao family in the Hengguo Mansion had no son, so she was always at a disadvantage. Fortunately, she fought for herself, was born beautiful, worked as a princess companion, and married into the Dingguo Mansion, and she will not suffer a big loss if she separates in the future.

Xie Chiying is also fortunate to have a competitive sister, King Mingqing is a brother who has a better relationship with Jinshang, and he is in a place like Jiangnan where there are outstanding people and abundant products.

Ke Mingxu saw that Jinghu was thoughtful, and probably knew what she was thinking, "Do you want to hear the story of my aunt and my uncle?" ”

Jinghu's eyes lit up, "I want to hear it." She likes to listen to stories the most, looking at Ke Mingxu's expression, this should be a good story.

Ke Mingxu then said, "My maternal grandmother was born in another family in Yichang, the Lu family, and the mother of my fourth aunt was a handkerchief. Later, once she brought her two daughters to Xie's house as a guest, and my uncle met my aunt. ”

"My fourth aunt is a younger sister, and the two families originally planned to marry my sister to my uncle. It is said that my fourth aunt's sister is better than my fourth aunt in terms of appearance, talent and temperament. ”

Mrs. Xie Si's appearance is indeed just average, but her complexion is very white and there are no wrinkles, so she doesn't worry about it at home.

"But my fourth uncle was like a demon, and he refused to agree, and finally decided to make her my fourth aunt."

"Later, it was also unfortunate that it didn't take long for my fourth aunt's mother to pass away, and my fourth aunt had to keep filial piety, and my uncle waited for three years and still didn't change his mind, and he became a groom at the age of twenty-two."

Jinghu was stunned for a moment when he heard this, but was misunderstood by Ke Mingxu, "The little county lord doesn't believe what I said?" ”

"No, no, of course not." Jinghu shook his head like a rattle, "It's just...... It's just that...... There are some indescribable feelings. There really doesn't seem to be any reason to talk about feelings. ”

"You don't have to have a lot of money, you don't have to fall into the country, you don't have to be knowledgeable. I don't know what kind of person Lord Ke's fourth uncle is. ”

Ke Mingxu said: "People pay attention to fate, there is the fate of meeting, and there is also the fate of getting married and loving each other, so it is a story worth telling." ”

"As for what kind of person my fourth uncle is, didn't the little county lord promise my fourth uncle to be a guest at Xie's house? You'll find out for yourself when the time comes. ”

Jinghu laughed, "I thought Master Ke didn't hear me talking to Mrs. Xie Si during the day." Does Master Ke want me to come with you as a guest? ”

He didn't answer his thoughts directly, "My aunt has a real heart, if she can't find a way to repay the love, I'm afraid that I won't be able to sleep well." I think it's good that the little county lord can be so considerate. "It's just from Mrs. Xie's point of view.

Since he won't say it, forget it.

She began to nag on her own, "I think Mrs. Xie Si is very good, I didn't just say this in front of you." Although I am young, I grew up in Yanjing, and I have never seen any kind of wife. ”

"I think Mrs. Xie Si is very sincere, and if she has any doubts or thoughts, she will say it directly. As soon as I explained, she immediately lost her prejudices, and looked at me with a kind gaze. ”

"A lot of wives in Yanjing look like they're smiling at you, but when you actually look at her eyes, there's no temperature in her eyes."

"I clearly feel that her praise is just a compliment, and I can't be angry yet, I can only socialize with her in a good voice, which is really troublesome."

She complained, and when she came back to her senses, Ke Mingxu was listening quietly. She was also a little embarrassed, "It's really not early, Master Ke, why don't we go back." ”

Ke Mingxu smiled, walked with her to the cabin, and parted near the main hall.

Jinghu walked to her room alone, and suddenly reacted, she had a question that had just been asked. She should have asked him what kind of woman he liked.

However, he also seems to have answered, "People pay attention to fate." She has always felt that there is a fate between them.
