Chapter 129: Proposal
"Why is there such a risk?"
When Xie Mulin learned of Xie Pu's concern, he couldn't help but ask this question.
"Although this turmoil ended with my father getting rid of his crime safely, in fact, in addition to some impact on the reputation of Pingnanbo Mansion, there was not much loss, but a lot of benefits. Cao wants to reconcile with you, she has achieved her goal; Ping Nanbo wanted the Xie family's property, and he also achieved his goal. Now it's just that the Cao family has not been able to marry Fang Wenshan for the time being, and Ping Nanbo has not succeeded in putting his father to death. But these two things are not something that my father can decide, but it depends on the mood of the emperor and queen in the palace. In general, both Ping Nanbo and the Cao family are victors, and you have no strength to fight against them at all, what reason do they have to hold a grudge against you, or even bring disaster to your family? ”
Regarding Xie Mulin's question, Xie Pu didn't know how to answer it at all.
If he hadn't cooperated with the emperor's plan, calculated the Cao family, whether it was the Cao family, Ping Nanbo and the Cao family, now he would not be able to get over his face at most, complaining that he was in the way and refused to send him to death, there was really no reason to have to get along with him, and even to the point of being angry with his mother's family.
But how does this explain this to his children? The emperor's plan, naturally, is a big secret. But he still has to think about it, once the Cao family finds out about the emperor's attempt and finds that he is involved in it, and it plays a big role, will they be angry with his mother and children?
Xie Pu could only say vaguely: "I failed to satisfy them, and I also caused them a lot of damage to their reputation, as well as the loss brought to them by the death of Wang Angui's family...... Now that I refuse to accept the queen's will and reunite with the Cao family, the Cao family will definitely hold a grudge against me. I...... I'm just in case, after all, the Cao family has never been a magnanimous person. ”
This explanation is still a bit far-fetched. Xie Mulin looked at Xie Pu's expression, remembering that his brother Xie Jinzhi had privately mentioned the strange situation of his father in prison, and vaguely had an idea.
Could it be ...... The reason why Xie Pu was so calm in prison was because he had long known that he would be fine, and all the critical situations he had shown before were all coaxing his family...... And the Cao family's? Dali Temple...... Or is the emperor having some kind of plan for the Cao family, and Xie Pu is involved? Xie Pu is now worried that Mrs. Xie will be embarrassed by the Cao family, just because she is worried that the truth will be exposed?
That's a lot of risk.
But well...... Old Mrs. Xie is acting like that now, if she doesn't tell her the truth, she will never obediently obey orders. But tell her the truth...... Will a secret still be a secret? Xie Mulin didn't think that Old Lady Xie was wise and rational enough to know what to say and what not to say.
Once Mrs. Xie leaks the secret, the emperor's plan fails, and he can't be angry with Xie Pu? offended the Cao family, Xie Pu could still rely on the emperor to escape the catastrophe; Offended the emperor...... Xie Pu's life really doesn't want it.
That's why Xie Pu hid the truth from everyone and blindly persuaded Mrs. Xie to leave.
As for his insistence that it was Xie Zeshan and the Song family who saved his life...... It is estimated that it was also to achieve this purpose that he deliberately deceived Mrs. Xie, right? Maybe it's also a little confusing to the role of the Cao family?
Xie Mulin thought about it, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Mrs. Xie has that temperament, since she refuses to go back to her hometown, she has to go. In the past, she relied on the Cao family's strength to show off her might, and always felt that everything was fine with the Cao family, and she should be asked to eat the hardships of the Cao family, so she really knew what was good and bad, don't always rely on the filial piety of her son and daughter-in-law, and make the whole family uneasy.
Thinking of this, Xie Mulin smiled and comforted Xie Pu: "Daddy, don't worry, even if the Cao family is dissatisfied with you, it should be for you, embarrass the old lady, what can they get?" Bullying the elderly, is the Cao family's face very bright? As long as the old lady is okay, don't dangle in front of the Cao family, don't be in the limelight, don't go out, and live her little life quietly in the city, the Cao family may not even know where she lives, so how can she not get along with her? ”
Xie Pu felt that his daughter's words seemed to have some truth, and his heart settled down a little: "That's right." Then let her old man continue to live in the house she is now, and don't move around. It's not a lively place, but next to Cheng'en Temple, you can count on the monks in the temple to take care of it. Besides, the neighborhood is the old interior, which is the former residence of Emperor Taizu, and if you want to come to the Cao family, you won't be arrogant enough to come to that kind of place. ”
Xie Mulin nodded: "Anyway, the old lady may not stay there for a long time." After a long time, and we are not with her, maybe she is bored with her life, so she will leave on her own, or come to us, or find another favorite place to live? As long as she is not in the capital, she is in a safe situation and lives happily, it is the same everywhere, why always force her to be an old man? ”
Xie Pu smiled bitterly: "I don't dare to expect her to take the initiative to find Huyin." But......" he paused, "she really doesn't have to go to Huyin County. There are clansmen in Huyin, so I think everyone should go back and take care of them. But if the mother is really not happy...... After leaving Huyin County, we also lived in Songjiang for a few years, and if she really decided to leave the capital, it would be necessary to go to Songjiang. Our family still has some property there, but it's a pity that "it's all in the hands of the Cao family...... now."
Xie Mulin disagreed: "Don't be afraid, the dead things are lost, and there are still living people." Since the old lady has lived in Songjiang for a few years, she always knows a few acquaintances in the local area, so she can take care of it. When we go back to our hometown in Huyin, we will keep in touch with Kyori from time to time. As soon as the old lady goes to Matsue Mansion, we will send you a letter immediately, and you can write to your acquaintances in Matsue and ask them to help take care of the old lady. There is no shortage of people waiting for her old man, and her body is also tough, so she can't do anything. ”
Xie Pu sighed and sighed: "I hope so." "But he can't wait until Mrs. Xie goes to Songjiang before he writes, and he still has to say hello to Songjiang's acquaintances in advance. By the way, the shopkeepers and guys over there in Songjiang will most likely lose their livelihood after the property is returned to Pingnanbo Mansion, and he has to find a way to find another place for them to live. If Mrs. Xie really went to Songjiang, she would need them to take care of her.
Xie Mulin got his father's permission and was secretly happy in his heart. As long as Xie Pu accepts the concept that "Mrs. Xie can live in two places with her family", and then let Xie Pu accept the idea that "it is not necessary to live in two places", it will not be difficult. She didn't want to live with Mrs. Xie anymore, and put up with the latter's "work" every day, watching Wen's appearance of being tossed by the latter. Now, the three of them, mother and son, can finally get rid of Mrs. Xie! Oh yes –
She cheered in her heart, and suddenly remembered someone again: "By the way, Dad, what are you going to arrange for Big Brother and Big Sister?" Don't you take them back to their hometown? Previously, you asked Aunt Qin to send a message to the Cao family, suggesting that they would release them, but they didn't seem to move, this is to detain the big brother and sister, right? ”
Speaking of this, Xie Pu also felt very annoyed. Since the Cao family wants to remarry, there is no reason to marry someone else with the children of the Xie family. In the past, something might happen to the Xie family, and she took away the child to protect them, but now that the Xie family is fine, what is she doing with the child? It's understandable that they are reluctant to have their own flesh and blood, but they can't be allowed to see their biological father, right? Could it be that this woman is really a femme fatale, once she has bad intentions towards people, and before others say anything, she first regards the other party as a mortal enemy, and she never gets along with each other?
Xie Pu said with a gloomy face: "I have already asked your third brother to find a way to inquire about the news." If there is a way, it is best to contact your brother and sister. As long as they voluntarily return to the Xie family, the Cao family will have no reason to detain people! ”
Even if he sues His Royal Highness Jin Luan, he will take advantage of it!
