After the Mid-Autumn Festival, the weather is getting cooler.

Xie Mulin had finished his boudoir class on August 18, and as before, he returned to live in his old house again, and only went back to his new house for one night when he had a boudoir class once every three days.

When she moved back to the old house, Mrs. Xie stood at the gate of Meilu Courtyard, posing as if she had passed by unintentionally, stretched her neck to look inside, and watched Xie Mulin stuff her luggage into the house with large bags, and she couldn't help but smile a little on her face.

When it was time for dinner, Mrs. Xie pouted arrogantly, "So you still remember to come back?" I walked so happily before, and after the Mid-Autumn Festival, I also ran with others, and I refused to say a word to me, I just don't go back to you. Aren't you going to come back and wait for me now? ”

Xie Mulin smiled at her, didn't answer, and buried himself in eating.

Seeing her like this, Mrs. Xie was a little uneasy, hesitated for a moment, and then lowered her voice and asked, "Second girl, tell me honestly, in the two days of the Mid-Autumn Festival, you ...... Is it intentional? Use that method to deal with me, you want to tell me to shut up and not mention the Song family and the clan? ”

Xie Mulin swallowed a mouthful of food, put down the dishes and chopsticks unhurriedly, wiped the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief, and pretended to be stupid: "What is the old lady talking about?" What is deliberately not intentional? Did we do anything? ”

Mrs. Xie wanted to speak and stopped, she was embarrassed to tell her thoughts and feelings truthfully, as if as soon as she said it, it seemed that she was greedy for family harmony and was pinched by her grandchildren.

But if she can't say it, how can she blame her grandchildren?

She glared at Xie Mulin for a long time, but Xie Mulin was unmoved, finished the meal very calmly, took a cup of health tea casually presented by Cuijiao, drank two sips, and put it on the table.

At this time, Xie Mulin looked at Mrs. Xie and said, "In the two days of the Mid-Autumn Festival, was the old lady having a bad time?" Don't want to continue to have such fun in the future? You have to force us to hate the sect and the second room, and say bad things about them according to your wishes, if we don't agree, you would rather drive us away, live alone in the old house and live a lonely life, and a junior is not around, far away and slander your absurdity and unreasonableness in your heart, and you don't have any sincere love for you, and you are also willing to be like it, is that so? ”

"Fart!" Mrs. Xie couldn't help but burst into rudeness, who would be willing to do this kind of thing? She's not stupid! What she wants is the sincere love of her children and grandchildren, and she wants them to stand on her side sincerely, and she doesn't care about the sect room and the second room, but she doesn't plan to force the children away for the sake of the sect room and the second room.

Xie Mulin spread his hands: "Isn't this the end?" If that's what you think, don't force us to accept things that don't make sense. To be honest, how much grudge can you have with the sect and the second room? You made your own mistakes first, and there is a reason why the clan does not like you. As for the second room, it's because the second grandmother is from a higher background than you, so you are not satisfied with her in your heart. But do you mind that?

"Even if your father didn't have an accident at the beginning and continued to be an official, the old lady Song on the second grandmother's side has also achieved the fourth grade of the country's sacrificial wine, and the official position is still higher than your father's. Don't you think you're stupid compared to your second grandmother? There are more women in the world whose family background is higher than yours, can you still hold grudges one by one? At the beginning, Cao's background was much higher than that of the second grandmother, why don't you resent her? Now that we are sisters, we are also the daughters of the third-grade officials, and our background is not higher than yours, do you want to look at us unpleasantly? ”

"What nonsense are you talking about?!" Old Lady Xie avoided her gaze a little embarrassed, "I'...... I'm because Song robbed my son! She also caused discord between my husband and wife! For her sake, the old lady counted me down several times that day, how could I swallow this breath?! As she spoke, Mrs. Xie's eyes turned red, "How good he was to me, he has always been kind and considerate, when did he scold me so excessively?!" ”

Xie Mulin had heard some things about Old Lady Xie before his death, and said disapprerovantly: "That's not because of the second grandmother, but because the old lady and the second grandfather have a deep brotherly relationship, but your attitude has caused him to lose face in front of his brothers." And you don't take care of it, how can the old lady not be annoyed? Since he treats you well, you should repay him well, instead of stirring up discord between his brothers, right? The second room and the third room complement each other, no one can leave anyone, and the family business of the third room still depends on the protection of the second room, how can the old lady not get along with the second grandfather for you for no reason? Besides, Daddy is a contemplation rather than an adoptive, it's not that the second grandmother snatched your son, but that your son wants to have a few more grandchildren, and then divide one to the second grandfather and second grandmother as grandchildren. The difference here is big, you are also the daughter of an official family who knows how to read and courtesy, and you can't tell the difference? ”

Mrs. Xie choked for a moment, and finally was speechless, so she could only stiffen her neck and defend herself: "Anyway, I just feel uncomfortable in my heart!" Your father is much more respectful to the Song family than to me, and now he is still more and more unwilling to listen to me for her. My sons have become her sons, and I am not allowed to hold grudges in my heart?! ”

Xie Mulin sneered: "Only your old man would think so." The second grandfather taught his father to read and taught him to the point where he could be admitted to the Jinshi and become an official. Isn't it natural for a scholar to respect his wife? Disrespect will be poked in the back, right? But if he really valued his second grandmother more than you, he wouldn't have returned to Huyin for so many years to live for a long time. If it weren't for the second grandmother's own daughter and grandson, there is no shortage of filial piety, and she doesn't care about these things with her father, do you think your father will not be criticized if he does this? He is like a mirror in his heart, even if he knows that he will be criticized, he is willing to act according to your careful thoughts, is it not because you are his biological mother? Change to a slightly less foolish son, do you think you will have a good life like today? ”

Mrs. Xie only felt ridiculous: "According to what you say, you don't listen to me, or are you filial to me?" He persuaded me to reconcile with the clan every year, bowed his head to the Song family, but regarded me more seriously than the Song family? It's a joke! ”

Xie Mulin snorted: "Believe it or not. Anyway, after more than ten or twenty years, you don't know how to grow up at all, and you always make trouble for your father, even if your father is in prison because of the daughter-in-law you picked, he lost his family property, and almost lost his life, you don't know how to reflect, I think my father is a little cold-hearted. He is still willing to persuade you to say these kind words to make peace with your clan, even if it is for your sake. He is afraid that after Xie Cao's two families turn against each other, if you don't follow him to take office, there is no backer by your side, and life will be difficult. But since you don't appreciate it, he can't do anything about you. No matter what, he was also taught by his second grandfather and grandmother with his heart, with three views of integrity and reliable character, and he will not treat you badly because he complains about you. So you don't have to worry about pension, and you can still keep food and clothing worry-free in the future. ”

She looked up at the room: "This old mansion is actually not bad. The mountains and rivers are beautiful, and there is no shortage of people to wait. When you are here, the days must be quiet. It's okay to stay away from the clan, but Daddy is actually worried that if you have a conflict with the clan again, and say something offensive to people, it will make it difficult for him. ”

Xie Mulin picked out his father Xie Pu's thoughts, so he got up and retreated to the table, bowed respectfully, and then retired.

Only Mrs. Xie was so angry that her eyes were bulging, her face was flushed, but she couldn't say a word.
