Chapter 488: Grace
Xie Mulin was a little surprised, Mrs. Ping Nanbo has occasionally been embezzled by Mrs. Chengenhou recently because of the dowry of the deceased mother-in-law, Duchess Chengen, and other things, and came to Xie Yinghui as a helper, wanting to compete with Mrs. Chengenhou, isn't this nothing unusual? Why is Mrs. Ping Nanbo sending someone here now, Xie Yinghui is so shocked?
She hurriedly asked Xie Yinghui: "What's wrong?" Eldest sister, but Mrs. Ping Nanbo is going to make trouble again? ”
Xie Yinghui said with a pale face: "Hide behind quickly, don't let anyone see you here." If you tell your aunt to know that you and your brother have returned to the capital, I don't know what you will do! ”
Xie Mulin was stunned, and before he could ask more clearly, he had already asked Xie Yinghui to pull it up, push it into the inner bedroom, and specially put down the curtain to cover one or two.
Xie Mulin was suspicious in his heart, but he wanted to ask the reason, and he was not in a hurry for this moment, so he obediently hid by the Luohan bed in the inner room and sat down, and motioned to the cuijiao who came in later to be quieter, and the master and servant listened carefully to the movement outside.
Mrs. Ping Nanbo sent a well-dressed housekeeper, but she was very polite to Xie Yinghui, saluted her according to the etiquette, and asked her how her health was and whether she had improved.
Xie Yinghui's attitude was very cold: "I'm sitting here, you can also see it, my body is still like that, I'm afraid I won't get better until the real spring blossoms." Your lady doesn't have to send someone to see me every day, and if you want to ask someone out to play, you have to convince someone else to do it. Miss Ma is not blind, she is sincere to her friends, and she knows that I am not feeling well, and she will never have the idea of asking me out. What's more, I still have clothes on my body, and I can't kneel in front of the spirits of my ancestors every day to offer incense and pray for blessings, which is no longer right, let alone go out to play without heart and lungs. I can't do that. The Xie family is a scholarly family, and they still have to be faced. ”
Xie Mulin was a little suspicious that Xie Yinghui had something to say, and he was satirizing the mother and son of Pingnan Bofu.
When the housekeeper heard Xie Yinghui's words, she was also a little displeased, and her tone immediately became cold: "Why did the cousin say such a thing?" Who doesn't know that the Xie family is a merchant? I have only been an official in this life, and I am embarrassed to say that my family is a scholarly family. If our lady hears this, she may not be able to laugh at it. ”
"Then you go back and let your lady hear!" Xie Yinghui suddenly became angry and threw the teacup on the table to the ground, "Now that your young lady has something to ask me for, you evil slave still dare to put up a fight in front of me, give me a look?" Who do you think you are?! Go back and tell your lady and young lady, saying that our Xie family is a merchant who is not on the table, and if we can have the blessing to associate with the emperor's relatives, we have already burned high incense in our previous life, where do we dare to invite the daughter of the emperor's relatives to go out to play? I don't have to break my life! Please ask her to be smart! ”
The housekeeper knelt down with a thud, and put on a courteous and affectionate face again: "Don't joke about it, cousin, if the little one really returns these words to the lady and the eldest lady truthfully, I'm afraid that the little one will die." The little one didn't speak carefully, and he bumped into the cousin, all of them are small, and please be magnanimous and forgive the little one! ”
Xie Yinghui sneered: "I finally know now what it means to be a compliment, so why bother?" Now that our Xie family has fallen down, any subordinate dares to look down on me, I don't get angry, and you won't put on such a respectful appearance. After you deal with me, don't you still look down on people? Who is not pampered, when the pearl is generally pampered and spoiled? I am still the daughter of a high-ranking official, and I have never been a poor girl, and it is not my turn to suffer such a wretch! ”
After she finished speaking, Lu Qi, who was standing next to her, immediately picked up: "Why don't you get out of here?!" ”
The housekeeper threw her sleeves angrily and left, and Lu Qi immediately asked Xie Yinghui: "Miss, let's send someone immediately to report this mother-in-law's evil deeds to Pingnan Mansion, right?" In this way, Miss Cousin wants to get angry, and she is also going to the mother-in-law, and she will not annoy you for a while. ”
Xie Yinghui sighed: "This is just an expedient measure." If my aunt and Cao Wenfeng really sent someone who didn't make a mistake in everything, I wouldn't be able to hold their handle, and I don't know how long I could refuse. ”
Lu Qi exited the room, Xie Mulin walked out of the room, motioned for Cuijiao to guard outside the door, and then sat next to Xie Yinghui and asked, "Sister, what's going on?" ”
Xie Yinghui glanced at her listlessly and sighed again.
It turned out that the mother and daughter in Pingnan Bofu had a new trick in the past few days, and began to harass Xie Yinghui, putting on a posture of wanting to get back together with her, and even said that they would marry Xie Yinghui for Cao Wenheng after three years of filial piety, the purpose was to hope that when Xie Yinghui and Ma Yurong, the daughter of the eldest princess of Yongning, met, they would bring their cousin Cao Wenfeng with them.
Before Xie Yinghui turned her face with Pingnanbo's mansion in the past, she had a good relationship with Cao Wenfeng, wherever she went to play and who she interacted with, she had to be piggybacked, and Mrs. Pingnanbo thought that this was nothing to Xie Yinghui.
However, Xie Yinghui now knows the true face of the family in Pingnanbo's Mansion, and she is disgusted in her heart, how can she be willing to send her ill-intentioned cousin to her friend Ma Yurong? She didn't know what Pingnanbo's idea was up, but she remembered that her cousin Cao Wenheng hadn't decided on a marriage yet, what if Mrs. Pingnanbo and Cao Wenheng wanted to calculate Ma Yurong? How could she trap her friend? Therefore, Xie Yinghui repeatedly tried to excuse herself and refused, and she had always used her poor physical condition as a reason for not being able to go out, but now she simply threw the pot on the head of the arrogant and rude messenger.
Xie Mulin was a little incredulous: "How did they have the face to hit the horse girl?!" In the past, the sons of Pingnan Boshi may not be able to climb this family, let alone the current Cao Wenheng! Do they really think that the eldest princess of Yongning is a vegetarian?! "Besides, to re-mention the marriage between Xie Yinghui and Cao Wenheng to lure the former to climb high branches for Cao Wenheng, Mrs. Ping Nanbo's logic is not wrong, right?
Xie Yinghui said: "Even if it is not the idea of letting Cao Wenheng marry Yurong, it is possible that he wants to marry Cao Wenfeng to the children of the Ma family." No matter which one it is, the people in Pingnanbo Mansion are not worthy of the Ma family, so I won't do this evil! Even when I heard that my aunt was going to bring up my marriage to my cousin, I felt disgusted, let alone someone like Yurong? ”
As for Cao Wenfeng, Xie Yinghui understands this cousin's temperament better, if she hadn't been a cousin and grew up together, she really wouldn't be happy to be close to this cousin. The other party's nature is not a good girl, and he is very vicious.
The third son of the Ma family has already married Zhao Ying, and the marriage is about to be completed in the spring, and the marriage given by the emperor is of course impossible to change. Another second son of the Ma family just lost the Yuan and Xiaobai clan, this son is working as a widower, if Mrs. Ping Nanbo has the heart to marry her daughter into the Ma family, most of them are his idea. But the eldest princess of Yongning has already been optimistic about the candidate for the second son, so she waited for the third son of Ma to return to her hometown to worship her ancestors after marrying Zhao Ying, and took the second son of Ma away by the way, under the pretext of traveling to see each other, she didn't plan to find someone in Beijing at all.
The upbringing of the one in front of Ma Ergongzi has problems, so that Ma Ergongzi has suffered great humiliation, and this successor candidate, Princess Yongning and the Ma family will never be ignored. Cao Wenfeng can't do anything except for a queen's aunt, why did the eldest princess of Yongning fall in love with her? If Mrs. Pinnanbo had this idea, she would have been humiliating herself.
Xie Yinghui only said about this: "They may still think that they have been greatly wronged by not letting Cao Wenfeng be the concubine of the East Palace, but instead matching a gentleman to continue the string, where do they think that others may not be willing to marry?" I didn't even bother to argue with them, I just wanted to prevaricate with words. When we're gone, who cares what their plot is? ”
