Wen Xuyou and his wife are rare people in the capital who still have good thoughts about the Xie family and are willing to lend a hand. Before the Xie family came to the door to ask for help, they had already started the rescue operation within their ability, which was tantamount to sending charcoal in the snow for the Xie family.

When Wen took Xie Mulin and Xie Huizhi to visit yesterday, Wen Xuyou and his wife were not at home, and they only saw the Wen family's housekeeper, and they were very sorry. The Wen family also planned to go again one day, but they didn't expect the Wen family to take the initiative to find them first.

Wen Xuyou is Xie Pu's fellow villager and classmate, and his wife is also from Huyin County, and he also had a friendship with Wen when he was in the boudoir. Although they have not been to Xie's house for many years, the friendship between the two sides does not seem to have had an impact. The Wen family wanted to talk to Wen, but Wen didn't plan to count the children, so they only called Sister Zhang Qiao to accompany them. After Xie Mulin gave the Wen family and his wife a salute, he had no choice but to go back to the West Courtyard.

Before leaving, Sister Zhang Qiao also stuffed a small basket for her, which contained twenty or thirty silk ropes of various colors for tying the strings, as well as variegated jade beads for decoration, as well as five or six fine silver wires, and a small half box of worthless millet beads. Silver wire is softer than copper wire, so it is not so easy to hurt your hands, and it is safer to tie the wire. As soon as Xie Mulin saw it, he understood Sister Zhang Qiao's intentions, and he also understood her affection in his heart.

Bracelets made of copper wire are too low in value to be worth the effort. After proving her craft, she certainly prefers to make something of higher value.

However, when Xie Mulin returned to the west courtyard, as soon as he entered the door, he saw Xie Yingrong hiding by the courtyard gate, sneakily looking at the east courtyard, which startled her and almost dropped the basket in her hand. Fortunately, it didn't fall, otherwise it would have fallen to the ground in pieces, and it would have been troublesome to pick it up, and it would not be good for the silk rope to be stained with mud.

Xie Mulin couldn't help but be a little annoyed: "What are you doing here?" What kind of bad idea are you going to fight sneaky?! ”

Xie Yingrong glanced at her resentfully, and snorted coldly, "Who is sneaky?" Don't talk nonsense! It was the old lady who heard that a guest was coming, and asked me to come over and see whose it was. The second sister walks alone and doesn't look at the road, why is it on my head?! ”

Since she tore her face with Xie Mulin, she no longer pretends to be a good sister now.

As soon as Xie Mulin heard this, he knew what Old Lady Xie was thinking. She knew what Wen Xuyou's background was, and she was reluctant to associate with the other party before, but now that people are at the door, she refuses to come out to meet, and only asks the juniors to find out the news. This kind of petty style of childishness, I really don't know what to say.

Xie Mulin said angrily: "It's Lord Wen Xuyou and his wife who live in General Yang Lane. It's good for you to reply to the old lady like this. Now only my mother and Sister Zhang are in the front hall, if the old lady is willing to come to meet her father's classmates, it will be great! ”

Xie Yingrong rolled her eyes, turned her head and walked towards Old Lady Xie's room. As soon as she heard that it was the Wen family and her wife, she immediately lost interest. Wen Xuyou, she had heard of it in her previous life, although she helped Xie Pu inquire about the news, ask for favors, and say good things, and was a very benevolent and righteous person, but she still couldn't help Xie Pu escape the fate of exile. This person is good to the Xie family, but it can't be useful, that is, he is blind! His family is not very rich and noble, and the house he lives in is also small. In the previous life, when the old and weak women and children of the Xie family were driven out of Pingnanbo's mansion, they never thought of going to them at all. Now that Wen Xuyou and his wife have come to the door, it is estimated that they are helping Wen's to inquire about the news, right?

Xie Yingrong felt that he didn't need to listen to the Wen family and his wife, he could know about it, so he had no intention of meeting people at all.

Xie Mulin saw that there was no movement after she walked into Mrs. Xie's room, and knew that Mrs. Xie didn't plan to see the old man in Huyin. She doesn't care, as long as Mrs. Xie doesn't get in the way of Wen's business. As for the news and intelligence, when the Wen family and his wife left, was she still worried that she would not be able to find out from Wen's mouth?

Xie Mulin returned to his room, Xie Yingfen still took care of her brother who had not yet recovered with her biological mother Wanqin, she was not in the house, she was happy and clean, and hurriedly put the basket in her hand, while no one was reading the book for a while, she went to look at her brother Xie Jin, and when she returned to the room, she saw that Wen was back.

The Wen family has already said goodbye and left. By this time, it was already getting late.

Xie Mulin took the initiative to greet him: "Mother is back?" I just looked at the second brother, he didn't have a fever anymore, and his spirit was okay, but he couldn't help coughing. I took a few of the recipes to Sister Zhang, and Ming'er asked her to show them to Dr. Yan and Dr. Li, and if they could be used, I would quickly make them for my brother and fourth brother to drink. ”

Wen's face was still tired, and he smiled a little when he heard the words: "Really? That's great. I see that you cough twice from time to time, and when the time comes, I will also ask Dr. Li to see if you can drink it. "To be honest, some of those small prescriptions, some of them she has seen, some have not, and her daughter said that she copied them from the medical books she had read before, and she couldn't remember them clearly. However, if it can really come in handy, the cost of medicine can be reduced, which is also good news for the Xie family, who are currently under the fence and shy in their pockets.

She glanced at her son, and saw that Wanqin directly placed her daughter and son in the same bed, obviously not planning to let Xie Yingfen go back to the house to sleep, and she didn't say much. Both children are recovering from serious illnesses, and it is normal for them to be uneasy to be a mother-in-law, and they want to take care of their children under their noses. If it weren't for Wanqin's help in the past two days, she wouldn't have been able to be distracted, taking care of Xie Pu and Xie Jinzhi at the same time. Wanqin helped her a lot, she reciprocated the favor and wouldn't say anything.

Seeing that his son was sleeping peacefully, Wen said hello to Wanqin and turned around and went to his daughter's room. At this time, Xie Yingrong had not yet returned, so she took the opportunity to talk to her daughter about the news brought by the Wen family and his wife.

Wen Xuyou inquired about a lot of information about Xie Pu's case, some of which Xie Mulin had known for a long time, and some of which he had never heard of, just filled the gap in her intelligence.

For example, Xie Pu's case, on the surface, was falsely accused by Wang Angui, but in fact it was implicated in the dispute between Empress Cao and Lin Zhaoyi in the palace. The Lin family thought that Xie Pu was secretly bribing the people under Governor Lin and finding out the information of the Lin family, so they wanted to retaliate ruthlessly; The Cao family thought that Xie Pu had dealings with the Lin family, and was trying to betray the Cao family and take refuge in the Lin family, so they were unwilling to spare him.

The Cao family's harmony is only the first step, and the Cao family may take more excessive measures in the future, but Xie Pu himself is probably not aware of it. When he was in prison, he had little contact with outsiders, and no one told him what was happening outside, but the Pingnan Bofu would send people to the prison from time to time. Wen Xuyou was worried that Xie Pu would be coaxed by the Cao family and make a wrong decision, so he reminded the Wen family that he must bring all this news to Xie Pu as soon as possible.

When Xie Mulin heard this, he was a little puzzled: "Why did the Cao family suspect his father's betrayal?" At most, he refused to listen to the Cao family's orders, and was unwilling to fight for power and profit for the Cao family. But my father contributes tens of thousands of taels of silver to the Cao family every year, and he has been an official in other places for many years, so he can't hinder the Cao family at all, can they use such a ruthless hand? "Actually, the most important reason why Ping Nanbo wants to remarry the Cao family to Fang Wenshan, right?

Wen sighed: "This thing...... Maybe it's a misunderstanding. According to Master Wen, the Lin family is suspicious of your father, and it is also because of this...... Your father corresponded with Master Li, the governor of Hedong of the Lin family, which attracted a lot of attention from others. But...... Then Li Changsheng is your father's old acquaintance, and the relationship between the two has always been poor, how could your father collude with him and rebel against the Cao family?! ”

Lee Chang-seung?

Xie Mulin quickly remembered the name, and suddenly became interested: "Who is this Li Changsheng?" ”
