For someone like Mrs. Xie, if she told her the truth directly, she would probably not believe it. But if she can be suspicious herself, and then slowly "think" about a conclusion through the words of others, she will firmly believe that this conclusion is correct.

Xie Mulin saw that Old Lady Xie's expression had changed significantly, and knew that she had become suspicious of Xie Yingrong, so he no longer continued to discuss the topic of the Marquis of Ningguo's Mansion and the Bian family, so as not to overdo it.

She instead talked about how her eldest sister Xie Yinghui lived alone in Beijing, how lonely and boring, the Bian family misunderstood her, and several uncles and aunts of the Cao family were cold and ruthless to her, and finally had two new friends Ma Yurong, but because Ma Yurong's sister-in-law Bai died, she was not always a guest at home, and she was not very familiar with Lu Feiyun, so she could only be in a daze all day long and write family letters for fun......

Xie Mulin actually did a second processing of the content in Xie Yinghui's letter, but Mrs. Xie didn't know the truth anyway, so what did it matter if she added oil and vinegar?

Old Lady Xie didn't pay attention to whether Xie Mulin's words were true or false at all, and her attention was attracted by the funeral in the Yongning Eldest Princess's Mansion.

She asked Xie Mulin again and again: "Is the eldest princess's mansion really holding a public funeral?" Do you just let people come to the door to mourn? No one doubted why Bai died so suddenly? That Dong Huijie also died in vain, there were still so many people in the Taoist temple who knew about it that day, there was no reason for the eldest princess of Yongning not to do anything, right? "It doesn't sound as ruthless as she thinks.

Xie Mulin told Mrs. Xie very frankly: "What else does the eldest princess of Yongning do?" Now everyone in the capital knows that Bai died of the epidemic, from the news of her illness to the time she really lost her breath, it has been more than half a month, which sounds very reasonable. And Dong Huijie was bitten to death by a wolf because he took the wrong path while hunting in the suburbs, and he is only missing at present, and the body is missing. The death of these two people sounded just unlucky, and there was nothing suspicious, even the side branch of the Bai family didn't feel that there was anything wrong, and there was no rumor outside, so it can be seen that those insiders all shut up knowingly, and they didn't intend to offend the eldest princess for a pair of dog men and women. If the eldest princess still has something to do, it will attract attention, right? ”

Old Mrs. Xie still didn't believe it, and at this time, she didn't care if Xie Mulin would notice anything, she just wanted to know the truth: "Could it be that the princess of the human family has already done it, but Sister Hui doesn't know?" ”

Xie Mulin snorted: "The eldest sister has lived in other people's Zhuangzi for more than 20 days, and gets along with other people every day, if there is really any news, can she know nothing?" The people in the Taoist temple that day were not nameless, if something really happened, it would definitely alarm the whole city, and it was impossible for the eldest sister not to hear about it, and it was impossible not to mention it in the letter. She wrote everything in her letter to us, except for the adultery between Bai and Dong Huijie, which was covered up with Spring and Autumn brushwork, there was nothing to hide, including the death of Bai and Dong Huijie, and Mrs. Qishanbo went crazy, and even the Cao family, she scolded a few words. ”

Old Lady Xie pursed her lips and said after a while, "How is the eldest son of the Qishan Bo family?" And that ...... What about Concubine Xiao's nephew? ”

"Big sister didn't mention it." Xie Mulin glanced at her with some surprise, "Is there anything wrong with these two people?" ”

Old Mrs. Xie said: "Concubine Xiao's nephew was sent to Jinshanwei by his family after that incident!" If the eldest princess of Yongning really didn't care what the people in the Taoist temple knew, with the power of the Xiao family, why did she have to send her son away?! ”

Xie Mulin blinked: "How does the old lady know that this is not a normal arrangement?" Isn't it normal for the children of the General Mansion of the Pillar State to go to the foreign guard to go to the guard station for training? Xiao Rui is not a prince, so he doesn't have to stay in Beijing? ”

Mrs. Xie closed her mouth angrily and stopped talking, looking at her expression, she was obviously in a bad mood, and she didn't know if she thought of something.

Xie Mulin smiled and sighed: "Speaking of that eldest prince of Qishan Bofu...... He's the one who has benefited the most from this, right? Originally, he was forced to go to prison by his stepmother and younger brother, but now that his brother has an accident, his stepmother has gone crazy, and he has no other brothers, Qishanbo must pay attention to him again. His position as the heir could not be more stable from now on. Speaking of this, she glanced at Old Lady Xie, "It's impossible for the eldest princess of Yongning to do anything to him, no matter how Qi Shanbo is, he is also a famous noble, if he dies, it will definitely cause heated discussions in the whole city." ”

Old Lady Xie's face became even more gloomy.

Xie Mulin smiled, and then changed the topic and discussed the gossip rumors in the palace mentioned by Xie Yinghui, mainly about the prince's choice of concubines. She said that there are many rumors about Miss Zhao's family, but Miss Zhao has always been very calm, and no matter how others ask about it, they don't mention the truth; also said that the prince listened to the rumors and did not like Miss Zhao, but the queen and the Zhao family were very disappointed; also said that the queen mother and the eldest princess of Yongning admired Miss Zhao, and even felt that the prince didn't like her, so it didn't hurt to let other princes marry her......

Anyway, the final conclusion is that the eldest princess of Yongning can be so fond and respected by Miss Zhao Jia, one of the insiders in the Taoist temple that day, there is no reason to kill everyone else.

Old Lady Xie's face was already comparable to the bottom of the pot.

Mrs. He boiled the medicine and sent it over, and Xie Mulin personally held it in front of Mrs. Xie and asked her to take the medicine. However, she was in a restless mood, where was she in the mood to eat this? Habitually waving his hand, he wanted to sweep the medicine bowl off.

Xie Mulin cleverly took a step back to avoid it, and pulled down his face: "The old lady is losing her temper again?" If you don't want to be tortured by illness anymore, you can't be so willful! After speaking, he also asked Pearl and Mrs. He to step forward and suppress Mrs. Xie, so that she could pour the medicine into her.

Old Lady Xie drank the bowl of medicine in a bit of embarrassment, almost choking, and could only stare at Xie Mulin hatefully, but she couldn't speak.

Xie Mulin smiled and put the empty bowl back in the tray, took it and walked out: "The old lady has taken medicine, let's rest first." After talking about this half day, you must be tired. I'll stay with you again when you're eating. ”

Mrs. Xie threw the pillow at her again.

Xie Mulin quickly avoided the bamboo lady, walked out of the house briskly, threw the medicine bowl to the rough envoy, and went to Wen's house.

Wen had already talked to Ma Luyao and his wife, and went to see the results of the cement test, and also looked around the old house before and after, inside and out, and looked around the places where the old house was ready to be repaired, and when he looked back and saw his daughter, he smiled on his face: "Sister Zhen, I went to see it, and the cement is really good!" If you use it to pave the ground in the courtyards of the old house, you will definitely be able to cover the muddy ground soon. When the time comes, the roof tiles and corners of those empty rooms will be repaired, and people will be able to continue to live there. ”

Xie Mulin nodded: "Uncle Ma said that he would find a skilled craftsman to come, and then see what the craftsman plans to do." The cement can not only be used to pave the floor, but also to build walls with some mortar and bricks. I think it's much stronger to build a wall in this way than to build a wall with dirt. ”

Wen didn't know how to build buildings, but her daughter's words seemed to make sense, so she nodded: "Then let Ma Lu Yao find a suitable craftsman as soon as possible." I can go back to the clan to inquire about this. There are so many clansmen, and when Xie Jiajiao built a house over there, that is, a few years ago, they must know a lot of craftsmen. ”

She paused, and hesitated: "This matter should be sooner rather than later, I won't stay for lunch, but I want to wronged you to be alone with the old lady, my mother really can't stand you......"

Xie Mulin happily hugged her: "Mother, don't worry, I'm not wronged." I'm not afraid of old ladies! ”
