Chapter 577: Disappointment

Xie Yingrong's letter arrived in the hands of Mrs. Bian an hour later.

Mrs. Bian was still a little surprised, she didn't understand why Xie Yingrong suddenly wrote to her, could it be that after meeting outside Bao'en Temple last time, Xie Yingrong was sick again? In her impression, the Xie family brothers and sisters seem to be about to leave Beijing, right? At the beginning of February, they said they were leaving, and now that the middle of February is almost over, why haven't they left yet? knew that Xie Yingrong would stay in Beijing for such a long time, and there was no need for their Bian family to rush to practice it for Xie Yingrong.

Mrs. Bian opened the letter with a smile, and said to the children and grandchildren at home: "This is Sister Rong's letter, presumably the day when their brother and sister leave Beijing has finally been set, right?" ”

Only then did Miss Bian know who wrote the letter in her grandmother's hand, and exclaimed, "Grandmother! Did you make a mistake? This letter is addressed to me, isn't it?! ”

Mrs. Bian glanced at her with disgust: "The envelope is clearly written for me, how can it be yours?" ”

Mrs. Bian heard a little and looked at her daughter: "You replied to her, didn't you?" Didn't I tell you before......" After a pause, he glanced at his mother-in-law and coughed, "I told you that when you want to reply to the letter, you have to tell the family, maybe your grandmother also has something to say to Miss Xie San, wouldn't it be convenient to send the letter over together?" But you have to hide from your family to reply to Miss Xie San, what do you say? ”

Miss Bian stuck out her tongue and said with a smile: "She just wrote a letter to greet me and talk to me about family life." I'll just go back. Now that she lives at home, her family no longer prevents her from communicating with me, and it is very convenient for you to send her letters and things, and you don't have to send letters with me. She stretched out her hand to take the letter from her grandmother, "Grandmother, Sister Rong must have written it wrong, she received my letter, how could she reply to you?" ”

Mrs. Bian had already read the first few lines of the letter, and her face was a little serious. She looked at her granddaughter: "Did you tell Sister Rong that your father might be an official of the Fourth Prince?!" ”

Miss Bian was taken aback, and then blushed: "Recently, everyone in the family has been angry about this matter, so I ...... I casually complained to her...... Could it be that she wrote back to you, and that's what she wrote?! She was quite surprised, did her friend do this...... Something too abrupt?

Although Miss Bian has a somewhat naΓ―ve temperament, she still receives the education she should receive on weekdays. This kind of absurd behavior of outsiders interfering in the contradictions in other people's homes really doesn't seem to be something that a likable and caring girl like Xie Yingrong would do. Even if she really wanted to persuade them to do anything, she should have told the person of the correspondence, Miss Bian, directly. Why did you cross Miss Bian and write a letter to Mrs. Bian?!

Miss Bian was just surprised and frowned, but Mrs. Bian directly disliked it: "This is too abrupt." Although Miss Xie San has always been good friends with our family, she is not from our family after all. After listening to your complaints, she can comfort you and explain you, it is the duty of being a friend, what can you do directly with our old lady? I've never heard of anything like this. This is too much! ”

Miss Bian shrunk her neck, and regretted complaining to her friends in the letter about the quarrel between her parents and grandmother at home. Originally, this kind of thing didn't matter, she didn't complain about her brother's naughtiness or something in her letter to Xie Yingrong before, but Xie Yingrong didn't write directly to the rest of her family at that time......

She carefully watched the change in the expression of her grandmother, Mrs. Bian, for fear that her old man would scold her.

However, Mrs. Bian's expression only became more and more serious, and she seemed to be quite calm, and there was no sign of anger. When she finished reading the letter, she folded it again, put it back in the envelope, and stuffed it into her sleeve pocket.

Miss Bian blinked, showing curiosity: "Grandmother, what did Sister Rong say in the letter?" ”

Mrs. Bian glanced at her, didn't answer, only turned her head to her daughter-in-law and said: "You don't have to complain about Sister Rong, she wrote this letter to me, although it was a little abrupt, but she was agreeing with the meaning of the two of you, thinking that the imperial examination is the right way, the subordinate officials of the palace or something, and it is still a mirror at the moment, so don't rely too much." If the eldest sister's father can be admitted to the Jinshi meritorious service, whether he goes to the palace of the four princes in the future, or is sent to the local government as an official, there is room for choice.

"But if he firmly believes that there is a place for him in the palace of the four princes, he will not study hard and prepare for the exam, and if there is an accident in the position of the subordinate official in the future, the eldest sister's father will be disappointed. After all, the fourth prince is still young and uncertain, and no one knows if he will remember our family when he leaves the palace and opens the mansion a few years later. The Qiao family has its own selfishness, so it may not be reliable. ”

Mrs. Bian was surprised, she didn't expect Xie Yingrong to mean the same thing as herself, and she was a little surprised. But to be honest, surprises are surprises, Xie Yingrong, this girl, wrote such a letter, it is still too much. This is their Bian family's business, and their daughter leaked it to Xie Yingrong to know, and it shouldn't have been. If Xie Yingrong is polite, he should control this topic between the letters of his youngest daughter, instead of rashly writing letters and suggestions to the elders of the Bian family. To put it bluntly, what can this have to do with her? She's too nosy, too!

Thinking so, Mrs. Bian said respectfully to her mother-in-law: "Your old man has a wide range of knowledge, and he is countless times stronger than our juniors. Naturally, we want to listen to you. ”

Old Mrs. Bian said lightly: "Sister Rong'er's words are reasonable, and the thoughts of your husband and wife are also right." It turned out that I was dizzy for a while, and I was confused by the power position of the nobles, so I wanted my eldest sister's father to attach to the four princes. Our family is small, and the old lady went early, although there are a few prominent relatives, but they can't be relied on. Blindly thinking about climbing high branches, even if you gain momentum for a while, you may not be able to last long. The imperial examination is indeed the right way, the eldest sister's father is already a lifter, it is a pity to give up halfway, let him continue to take the exam. Prepare for the exam carefully, if he can win the Toad Palace and become an official smoothly, I will have the face to see his father when I go to Jiuquan in the future. ”

Mrs. Bian was secretly happy in her heart, but she wanted to show a frightened expression on her face: "You are serious." This home is supported by your old man's home. If it weren't for your painstaking cultivation, Xianggong would not have been able to pass the exam. The old lady is under Jiuquan, and she must be grateful for all the things you have done for the Bian family. Your old man has always been wise, and he hopes that Xianggong will be a subordinate official of the fourth prince, but also because Mrs. Gu's family is in a difficult situation, and he is also worried that Xianggong will be implicated, so that the second room of the Cheng family will hinder the future, where is it dizzy? ”

Old Lady Bian sighed. Fortunately, although the daughter-in-law disagrees with her on her son's future, she is also a sensible person and knows the difficulties of their Bian family. is not like Xie Yingrong, who only persuaded her from the reliability of the fourth prince.

The fourth prince is unreliable, she doesn't know, but she knows that the one who told Xie Yingrong that the four princes are unreliable is the cousin of the crown princess Miss Xue who is about to marry into the East Palace, and that is the person on the prince's side. Mrs. Ning Guohou and the second room of the Hou Mansion suppressed her daughter, son-in-law, and grandson's family to the fullest, didn't they just rely on the power of the prince? Miss Xue said bad things about the four princes, can you still believe it?!

Xie Yingrong, this girl, why doesn't she understand this truth?

Mrs. Bian was a little disappointed in her heart. But that is someone else's girl, and she is about to leave the capital, so why should she bother?
