Chapter 268: Sensationalism
After Xie Mulin's alarmist words, Wen's mind was completely confused. After she wept out of shape, she couldn't talk about anything else. Xie Mulin sent her back to the main room and personally served her to rest.
When Xie Mulin was about to turn around and leave, Wen grabbed his daughter's hand: "Sister Zhen, what should I do with the old lady?" I was afraid that she would make trouble, that she would get into trouble, but I didn't have the courage to control her. Even if you harden your heart, I am afraid that your father is far away in Beiping and does not know the situation at home, and after listening to the old lady's complaint, he will misunderstand me. You said...... What should I do? ”
Xie Mulin turned around and patted the back of her hand: "Mother, you don't have to worry. You can't control the old lady, just let the person who can manage her come forward. When I was in Jinling City, the old lady was the oldest in the family, and we couldn't do anything about her. But now that he has returned to the clan, there are not only one or two people who can manage the old lady. As long as you don't be soft-hearted, always think about taking care of the old lady's face, and don't say anything, then there will be no problem. Even if it's Daddy's, you can tell the truth in your family letter. Will Daddy still not be able to trust the clan? Even if he favors his own mother, but the three old people, the uncle and grandfather, the uncle and grandmother, are not people who will mess around! ”
Wen thought about it, in the past, he really didn't trust the elders of the sect and the second room. The elders are gentle and kind, and they are all decent people. They said that they would leave the old lady Xie to support the elderly in the clan, and they must have their own methods, and they would not really make the situation too ugly. She really thought too much, but she was a little disrespectful to the old lady and her mother-in-law.
Anyway, she has returned to the Xie family clan, although in front of all the children, she is an elder, but in the entire Xie family corner, she is just a junior. When the juniors have difficulties, they should obey the elders.
The big stone in Wen's heart suddenly disappeared halfway, and he could rest for a while. She was busy for a few days before she cried again, and her spirit was really exhausted.
She closed her eyes and took a nap, Xie Mulin whispered a few words to Sister Shan, then pulled out of the main room and let out a long breath.
Frankly speaking, she talked to Wen so many times, and repeatedly persuaded Wen to rise up, and Wen deserved it every time, but after that, she always softened in front of Mrs. Xie, which really made her very impatient.
I don't know how Mrs. Xie raised this daughter-in-law and brainwashed people to this point.
Xie Mulin really would rather talk to Xie Pu now than persuade Wen anymore. Although Xie Pu is a little stupid and filial, he understands things and can distinguish the importance of things, he shouldn't have promised Mrs. Xie about things, and he will never agree. But what about Wen? It's just a dead brain. Xie Mulin seemed to have no other way than to try his best to isolate her from Old Lady Xie and find a way to sow discord and let Wen take the initiative to distance himself from the latter.
Now I can only let the elders of the clan intervene in this strange situation in the third room, and I hope that the three old men Xie Zeshan, Tu and Song can really stop Old Lady Xie from being a demon. As long as Mrs. Xie can be honest, even if she wants to live with her family for a few years, Xie Mulin will admit it.
However, if she has the opportunity to shake the pot, she doesn't want to let it go.
Xie Mulin secretly pondered, and went back to write a letter to Xie Pu. It would be great if he could bring people to Beiping. It was he who connived at his own mother like this, why could he leave without his hands, but ask his wife and children to bear all the consequences for him?
While slandering his father in his heart, Xie Mulin ran to the kitchen to ask how to prepare dinner, and happened to meet Pearl there.
Mrs. Xie was angry again, saying that in the evening, she would not only eat Nanxunxiang kohlrabi, but also finger-long Taihu Lake whitebait, and stir-fry leeks until fragrant, so that she could use them to accompany the porridge. Pearl and Mrs. He persuaded for a long time, but they couldn't dispel her thoughts, and the former had to go to the kitchen to ask for food.
The cook complained to Xie Mulin: "Second girl, the whitebait in Taihu Lake is just a trivial matter, and it doesn't cost anything, but the sun is in the west, where can we buy whitebait for the old lady?" Even in the back villages, you may not be able to buy fresh goods. People caught fish in the morning, and they were already sent to the county town, where will they stay until this time? If the old lady can wait, I will definitely be able to deliver this dish to the old lady at noon tomorrow. But this will be ...... It's really hard to do! ”
Pearl sighed beside her: "Why don't I understand this truth? It's not that I'm going to embarrass my mother, it's the old lady's temper, you don't know. Just now, Mother He and I have been persuading her for a long time, she must eat tonight, what can I do? If we turn around and tell the old lady that there are no whitebait tonight, and she refuses to eat, how can we waiters afford it? ”
The cook stopped talking. From her point of view, she must feel that the big girl waiting next to the old lady is more decent than herself. The old lady just eats one less dish for dinner, can she still get rid of her henchmen?
Xie Mulin sighed in his heart, and said expressionlessly: "What kind of leeks do you eat at night?" It was something from the rising sun, and the old lady should have shouted that she couldn't sleep at night. Send someone to Qianwan Village to buy it, forget it if you can't buy it, buy it back and make it for the old lady. If the old lady asked, she said that she had sent someone to buy it, but she didn't buy anything fresh, and she didn't dare to give the old lady something smelly. ”
The kitchen saw that the master had spoken, and hurriedly agreed.
Xie Mulin asked about other dishes for dinner, ordered a few dishes, and added a soup that Wen loved to drink before leaving the kitchen.
Pearl had been following her, and when she saw no one left and right, she leaned over to her and whispered: "When the eldest lady of the sect and the eldest lady came to greet the old lady together, the maid next to the eldest lady once pulled me to talk to Mother He, handed over the gifts brought by the eldest lady to us, and also inquired about what the old lady and the second girl had done and said in the past few days. Mother He and I told the truth, and we didn't dare to hide anything. ”
Shemulin looked back at her, and she hung her head and was silent.
Shemulin understood.
How can a clan woman be a fool? Xie Mulin was just a half-grown child, and it was the first time he saw Du Shi, and the latter couldn't believe what she said, so he really found an opportunity to ask the people waiting beside Mrs. Xie. Fortunately, Xie Mulin had already enveloped Pearl and Mrs. He, and he never lied, at most he just added fuel and vinegar. As long as Pearl and Mrs. He don't mention too many details, the general confession can still match Xie Mulin's words.
After this pass, Du will really no longer be suspicious of Xie Mulin, and he will form a relatively fixed impression of Mrs. Xie's nature and temper. If Mrs. Xie wants to ruin the reputation of her juniors at will in the future, she will not believe it easily.
Very good. Next, Shermulin decided to strike while the iron was hot.
She went to the back floor to see Mrs. Xie and greeted the other party kindly.
Old Mrs. Xie squirted from her nose: "Hmph, what are you doing?" Where's your mother? Why don't you come to me and wait?! ”
You've just driven people away, and now you're picky again. Isn't she a serious mother-in-law in name, can she afford to put such a big score?
Xie Mulin tugged at the corners of his mouth and said, "My mother is in trouble." Just now, the eldest old lady and the second old lady have been here, and I am finally relieved to hear that the eldest aunt said that your condition is fine. They all wondered, you didn't mention that you wanted to come back before, and you didn't go by water with us, and you ran back from Jinling with two maids, and you didn't even bring your two granddaughters, and you tossed yourself like this, what happened? My mother didn't know anything, she couldn't answer. The two old ladies said that it is better to write back to Jinling to ask, and by the way, it is also to report your safety. ”
Old Mrs. Xie almost didn't fall out of bed: "What did you say?!" No...... No way! Can't write back! ”
