Xie Mulin never expected to hear such words from his mother Wen's mouth.

How could Wen not take her to Beiping? Do you think it's enough to be accompanied by Xie Liu and Xie Jinkun? But these two people, one is the uncle in the next room, and the other is the nephew in the next room, they are both young and strong men, even if they are relatives, it will be inconvenient in many things, right? Xie Mulin doesn't think that Wen's physical fitness and social skills can quickly cope with the general situation of going north to Beiping and the general situation after arriving in Beiping, with her by her side, she can also help come up with ideas, at least there is a response on the way, right?

For no reason, why is Wen reluctant to take her?

Xie Mulin asked: "Is it because of the lack of cabins?" I'm not squeamish, and it's okay to be crammed together with a girl. Anyway, I heard from the shopkeeper Mao before, the boat ordered by my mother went very fast, and it would be possible to reach Cangzhou in ten days. I'm not someone who hasn't experienced hard times, and this kind of thing can't be difficult for me. ”

Wen smiled bitterly: "The cabin is indeed a little insufficient, but it is not completely impossible to squeeze out the space. I don't want to take you to Beiping because ......," she paused, "the old in the family, the young, the sick, the weak...... I was in a hurry to go to Peking because I couldn't rest assured that my lord. But if even you leave with me, who can I hand over to that big mess at home?! ”

Wen's consideration is very realistic, and now in the situation of the three rooms, no one who can suppress the scene and manage the family stays in Huyin's hometown, and it will definitely be chaotic.

Not to mention Mrs. Xie's temper, once she has the opportunity to control the power, she will definitely be a demon. She has always been at odds with her clansmen, especially with the two concubines in the clan and the second room. The two old ladies may not want to be like her, but if her words work, will she refrain from provoking? The Wen clan is not happy to see another wave within the good clan.

Besides, Mrs. Xie's health is not very good, in the second half of last year, she was seriously ill and almost lost her life, although she has now recuperated, but when the winter and spring seasons change, her body is also a little uncomfortable, and she has been infected with a cold for two days. At the moment, she took the medicine in time, and there was no big problem, but because she has always been a willful person and doesn't know the real way of health preservation, if no one controls her, God knows which day she will fall ill because of Hu Lai?

Wen didn't dare to say that he could persuade this mother-in-law, and as for the pearl and Mrs. He who were waiting beside Mrs. Xie, they couldn't control the master even more. But Wen thinks that his daughter-in-law has a lot of ways to deal with the old lady, and with her, Mrs. Xie shouldn't be able to make a big mess.

In addition to Mrs. Xie's ancestor, Wen also had other concerns.

A few boys in the family, the eldest has to keep filial piety this year, and misses the county exam for a year, but he will definitely go down again next year, if he has to run back and forth between the north and the south, it will be too hard, and his body may not be able to hold it, and he can't concentrate on his homework; The second child is out this spring, the results of the county examination have come out, and he has won the first case, and the next government examination and hospital examination are very promising to pass smoothly, so it is naturally impossible to give up the good opportunity and go north with his mother; The third child is still young, and his temperament is also jumpy, he has just opened a shop in partnership with others, and his interest in doing business is strong, but his studies cannot be wasted; The fourth child was weak, and he was already sick during the change of seasons, and he couldn't even go to the clan school, so he had no choice but to take a vacation.

Wen covered up all kinds of negative comments about Mrs. Xie, and said to her daughter helplessly: "Xiao Si's body is really too weak, although he has been well raised in the past few months, but he has been sick for a while, and his efforts have been in vain. In order to take care of him, your Aunt Qin didn't dare to follow me north, and the four girls even surrounded her brother's bedside every day to help take care of him. If I hadn't really been able to let go of my master, I shouldn't have left my sick child and gone out of the house. Now I really have no choice but to entrust it to you. Good boy, you must take good care of the family for me. ”

Xie Mulin really didn't know that there were so many patients in the house, and it sounded like someone really needed to go back to the town.

Mrs. Xie's personality and handling style are not suitable; Wanqin has children to take care of, and her careful thinking and small means, if she really controls the housekeeper's power, she doesn't know what will happen; Xie Yinghui has never been a good housekeeper, and she is the eldest lady's temper, and she is not familiar with life; Not to mention Xie Yingrong, she will only play tricks that can't be used to find a good marriage for herself; Xie Yingfen is too young, and she has a younger brother to take care of.

Thinking about it this way, isn't there only Xie Mulin left to count on?

Although there are still many elders in the clan to rely on, the Song family in the second room is worried that Mrs. Xie will not be willing to meddle in the affairs of the third room, and she also has her daughter and grandson and the affairs of the academy to be busy; Not to mention the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the Tu family and the Du family in the clan, the clan women are already very busy, where is the time to take care of the trivial matters of the third room? Being able to come over once in a while and take care of it is already the limit.

The more Xie Mulin thought about it, the more he felt that he really couldn't go, but Xie Pu was there, there was a Wen family who went to take care of him, and if he added a few more people, it would be almost the same, and it would be okay without her help.

Wen added another sentence at this time: "I'm afraid your grandmother's body is not very good." After the Lantern Festival, a letter came from Yangzhou, and I don't know what Master Yang said in the letter, and the second old lady has been very uncomfortable since then. Before I left, I saw her lying on the bed, listless. Your Aunt Meijun said that this is her old man's heart disease. Even if she invited Old Man Du to diagnose the pulse and prescribe the prescription, she said that she had to think about it by herself. Although your Aunt Meijun, Brother Chun, and Sister Yuan all live in the second room, we can't completely ignore the second old lady in this room. Your brother has to prepare for the scientific examination, so he can't be distracted. When you go back, you can still do a filial piety for me and my master. ”

Xie Mulin sighed: "Mother, needless to say, I know the seriousness of the matter." I will accompany the eldest brother and the third sister to go back and take care of the family. You can rest assured! ”

Wen's eyes were red, and he took his daughter's hand and said, "Good boy, I knew that you would definitely be able to understand your mother's difficulties." Don't worry, when the master has nothing to do, and your brothers have also won the Xiucai fame, we will definitely send someone to pick you up and go to Beiping for reunion. She looked at Xie Xianzhi and Xie Yinghui, "When the time comes, our family, young and old, will be reunited in Beiping, and we will never be separated again!" ”

Xie Xianzhi smiled and nodded, Xie Yinghui was a little worried, and she smiled a little reluctantly. But a new and unfamiliar environment, I don't know anything about her past, as long as no one mentions her biological mother Cao Shuqing and her new love Fang Wenshan, it seems that there is something worth looking forward to?

Now that he has made up his mind, Xie Mulin is not entangled, and directly enters the role: "Mother, what disease did the old lady and the fourth brother have?" Have you ever invited Mr. Du to see a doctor? ”

Wen sighed: "The old lady didn't want to see Old Man Du, so I had to invite Second Master Du to come forward, but it was a little cold and it was not a big problem, but the old lady was weak, and she was seriously ill last year, so she needed to recuperate carefully." Du Erye has prescribed a prescription, as long as the old lady's daily life and diet are properly arranged, and she takes medicine on time, there should be no problems. As for Xiao Si...... she touched her sleeve, "The fourth girl wrote a letter, detailing Xiao Si's pulse, illness and prescription. I didn't have it with me, so I'll find it for you when I get back. She also said that in the past, she was used to asking a doctor to prescribe tonic medicine to Xiao Si in the capital, and Xiao Si ate well. If it's convenient for you, it's best to help find the doctor and prescribe a few more ways to supplement Xiao Si's body. ”

Xie Mulin smiled bitterly: "Since I don't have to follow you to set off north tomorrow, it is naturally convenient." Mother will give me the letter after eating in a while. I asked the doctor to go. ”
