Chapter 109: Intimacy
Wen looked at his daughter in a daze, a little incredulous that she would say such a thing.
Xie Mulin smiled and said: "I'm not wrong, mother, think about it carefully, the old lady has done so many wrong things, and she is too sorry for the big house and the second room, especially the second old lady, even the second old lady, our grandfather in etiquette, was indirectly killed by the old lady." The second old lady doesn't care about the old lady, it's completely for her father's sake. But we can't take people's tolerance for granted? The old lady refuses to face the bitter lord by herself, and she lives so righteously, don't we, who understand things, feel guilty for her? Dad is the old lady's biological son, so it's hard to say anything to accuse the old lady. But our mother and son, how can we say that we are also the daughter-in-law, grandson, and granddaughter of the second old lady, do we still have to serve the old lady all the time and ignore the second old lady? That's just sticking a knife in the heart of the sufferer! ”
Xie Jinzhi sighed and said to Wen: "Mother, although my sister's words are a little biased, they are not unreasonable. My father is also guilty, so he will keep hiding from the old lady and keep in touch with the second old lady and the clan, right? This time, my father was in trouble, and the old lady couldn't help with anything, and it was the eldest uncle and grandfather and the second old lady who lent a hand. The elders have been gracious to their fathers one after another, but they are afraid that their fathers will no longer be able to deceive themselves. The old lady is my father's biological mother, and my father is in a dilemma and difficult to decide, but we can share his worries. ”
Wen Shi showed a blank expression: "How can we share his worries?" Could it be that he left this group of old and weak women and children at home and went back to Huyin to serve the second old lady? But...... Respectfully, no matter what the etiquette is, the old lady ...... After all, it's your father's biological mother, your biological grandmother! If the Cao family was still there in the past, and everyone was safe and sound, and the old lady was taken care of, we could still be distracted and do our filial piety in front of the second old lady. Now that there is only one daughter-in-law left by the old lady's side, if I leave her and run to flatter the second old lady, what will your father think? If he can be ruthless with this heart, it won't be him! ”
The mother-son relationship between Xie Pu and Mrs. Xie is deeper than others imagined. They also used to have a good time of motherhood and filial piety. When Mrs. Xie was young, even if she sometimes did a little bit of good work, she would not show her bad side in front of her husband and son. And by the time the conflict between her and the Song family broke out completely, and she did wrong things one after another, Xie Pu was already in her teens, and her good impression of her mother was already deep-rooted. In addition, Mrs. Xie is young and widowed, and the mother and son depend on each other, which makes Xie Pu have special pity and respect for his biological mother. Therefore, even though he clearly knew what big mistakes his biological mother had made and how confused and domineering she was, he never had the heart to treat his mother coldly.
The matter dragged on to this day, Xie Pu was sandwiched between the two mothers, and he had already walked into a dead end, and he didn't know how to crack it. He originally thought that when the time slowly passed, he would always have a way to persuade his mother to soften her attitude and take the first step to ask her heir Song for forgiveness. As long as Mrs. Xie unties the knot in the Song family, the affairs of the clan will be easy to handle. But he never expected that before he took this first step, he himself encountered a catastrophe first. This time, he had to rely on Xie Zeshan and the Song family to help him, and the debts he owed seemed to be increasing......
Wen was well aware of Xie Pu's thoughts. She still relied on the support of the Song family to successfully marry Xie Pu, and the other party was also her nominal mother-in-law, so she naturally had the idea of serving the other party. However, she only dared to tell Xie Pu in private about this kind of thought, once Mrs. Xie heard it, it would really add fuel to the fire. Mrs. Xie already thought she was in the way, if she knew that she wanted to recognize the Song family as her mother-in-law, I am afraid that she would immediately drive her mother and son out of the house, right?
When Xie Mulin heard this, he was a little puzzled: "What if the old lady drove us out of the house?" We don't belong to hers, and there are still the names of my mother and our brother and sister on the family tree, right? If it weren't for the old lady's words, we would not be the daughter-in-law and children and grandchildren of the Xie family. I think that in the past ten years, my father has been in a foreign office, and my mother has not been able to reunite with him, and it is possible to be controlled by the Cao family and angry with the old lady if she stays in the capital, so why not go back to her hometown in Huyin directly? Our family obviously still has an industry in our hometown, so we don't have to worry about our livelihood, and we can be more filial to the elders in the second room, which can be regarded as a filial piety for our father. ”
Wen Shi said angrily: "If we really want to do this, I'm afraid it will be difficult to see your father!" "She and Xie Pu are also husband and wife! It is not possible for a child not to see his father all the time. Staying in the capital, Xie Pu's family, although he has to be separated from Xie Pu, but Xie Pu will send people to send letters and things back from time to time, and occasionally when he returns to Beijing to report on work or seek new vacancies, he can also live at home for a period of time, which is when their husband and wife are reunited. If Wen returned to Huyin with his children, when would he be able to see Xie Pu? Even if Xie Pu can find an opportunity to meet them in the name of returning to his hometown to worship his ancestors, he may not be able to turn around in a few years!
Not to mention that Mrs. Xie may have to block it, the future of the two children is also something that Wen needs to consider.
In fact, when Xie Pu first started to take up his foreign post, Wen followed him to the office, and he was pregnant with Xie Jinzhi in office. It was only after she was six months pregnant that Mrs. Xie sent a letter urging her to return to Beijing, saying that she would personally watch her give birth to a child. Although Xie Pu felt that it was very nonsense, considering that the conditions for her appointment were poor and not conducive to Wen's production, he still sent her back to her home in the capital. The Cao family invited the famous Wen Po and the imperial doctor, and also allowed the Wen family to give birth to a son smoothly.
It's just that after Xie Jinzhi reached 100 days, Mrs. Xie claimed that she was reluctant to let her little grandson and refuse to let Wen take her son back to office, and it was impossible for Wen to really leave her son who had not yet been weaned. In those months, Wen was pregnant with a daughter again, and he couldn't go far away. During that period, it was the Jin sisters who served in office, and they also made a farce in which Aunt Jin was favored and provoked the dissatisfaction of the Cao family.
After that, Wen wanted to follow him several times, but there were obstacles, either his son was sick or his daughter was sick. Later, she found out that Aunt Xiaojin's death was a bit of a problem, the Cao family was not as virtuous and kind as she thought, Mrs. Xie tightly held Xie Jinzhi and Xie Yingzhen, and the Wen family couldn't rest assured that the child would have to die, and wait for Xie Pu to return to Beijing to reunite. As a result, she waited for nearly ten years.
Wen Shi carefully analyzed these words for his daughter before saying, "Good boy, I know that you have complaints about the old lady in your heart, so you don't like to stay by her side." But you have to know that you can't get close. The old lady is your father's biological mother, even if the second old lady is very kind to your father and is the heir mother, in your father's mind, she cannot be equal to the old lady. The reason why your father kept the old lady secret and exchanged letters with his hometown was because he didn't want the old lady to be angry and sad. Why didn't the second old lady understand your father's point and indulge him? The second old lady has a daughter and a grandson, and there is no shortage of juniors around her to serve, so she doesn't care if my daughter-in-law, who is in etiquette, can stay with her. In her opinion, as long as your father is doing well, it doesn't matter what others think. No matter how much she resents the old lady, she can't outstrip her love for your father. ”
Xie Mulin was speechless. Anyway, shameless people will always live better than faceless people. Mrs. Xie has no fear, doesn't she rely on her son's filial piety and the generosity of the Song family and others? But who owes her again?!
Xie Jinzhi listened silently to the conversation between his mother and sister, his eyes flashed slightly, and his eyes were lowered.
