Chapter 121: It's Cold

The Xie family has now turned against the Cao family, is no longer an in-law, and even has a little enmity. Even if Empress Cao doesn't care about the Chengenhou Mansion and the Cao family's second room, Pingnanbo's Mansion is not easy to deal with.

It's not that the Xie family must be entangled, but that Pingnanbo Mansion has done harmful things by himself, and he is weak-hearted, and he may be afraid of outsiders gossiping, so he is naturally unwilling to let the victim escape, leaving a clear evidence for their family's despicable behavior.

Don't expect the Pingnan Bofu to find out with a conscience and be ashamed to stop. If they had a conscience, they would not have dealt with Xie Pu from the beginning.

Therefore, it is reasonable for Xie Pu to want his family to leave the capital out of a precautionary mentality. He wants to go out and leave the old and weak women and children in the capital to be targets for the Cao family? He's not that stupid!

Anyway, the mansions and properties in the capital were swallowed by Pingnanbo's Mansion, and it was easy for the Xie family to leave. The second room still has some private property in Jinling City, but as long as someone helps take care of it, it doesn't matter if the Wen family doesn't stay. After the Xie family left Beijing, the best choice was naturally to go back to their hometown Huyin County. There, the Xie family clan can take care of this group of old and weak women and children, and the Xie family brothers can also go to the Zhushan Academy opened by the second room to study. Wen's mother-in-law Song, who has not been filial to her in etiquette for many years, can also make up for it by the way.

Everyone was happy.

Except for one point: Old Mrs. Xie, who once left a black history in the Xie family's clan, may not be very happy to return to Huyin. Even if he goes back, he may continue to put on that annoying face, and once again offend the entire clan.

Therefore, Xie Pu had to spread out the actual situation and tell his mother, no longer conniving at her willfulness, forcing her to agree to return to her hometown, and putting down her body to live in harmony with the clan, and no longer making petty temperament, so as not to anger Xie Zeshan and his wife and the Song family and others, and even the others could not accommodate themselves in their hometown.

Xie Mulin quickly thought clearly about Xie Pu's thoughts, and sighed secretly in his heart, this filial son is not easy to do, once he loses his sense of proportion and spoils people, if he wants to bring back the crooked old lady, it will take a lot of effort. She is really not very confident, Mrs. Xie will listen to Xie Pu's persuasion, even if she is forced to agree to return to her hometown for a while, when Xie Pu leaves for a foreign post, the old lady refuses to leave, who can tie her up on the road?

At least Wen can't do such a thing.

Xie Mulin pursed his lips and calmly looked at his father Xie Pu to explain to everyone the reason for returning to his hometown. It's basically the same as she thought, but I don't know why, Xie Pu seems to be very sure that Pingnanbo's Mansion will be unfavorable to the Xie family, so he strictly ordered the Xie family to leave the capital as soon as possible to ensure that nothing goes wrong.

Does Xie Pu know something?

Xie Mulin couldn't help but ask: "Dad, did you hear any rumors that Pingnanbo Mansion would be unfavorable to us?" But we are a group of old and weak women and children, and we haven't provoked their family, why should they harm us? In comparison, dad is more dangerous, right? ”

Xie Pu couldn't put the fact that he cooperated with the emperor, let alone say that the Cao family might have bad intentions, and if he realized that he was involved in the emperor's plan to calculate the Cao family, he might turn around and take revenge at any time.

He only said vaguely: "I will pick a place far away from the capital to be an official, and if they want to harm me, they can't do it." ”

Xie Jinzhi frowned and said, "Father must not take it lightly. If Pingnanbofu really has bad intentions, even if it is far away, it may not be that there are no dead soldiers to send. ”

Xie Pu smiled: "Don't worry, I know it in my heart." ”

Xie Mulin glanced at him with some suspicion, frowned, didn't know why, remembered the inexplicable words that Xiao Rui said to himself. She couldn't figure out what that meant, but it was better to tell her father.

The two mothers-in-law who were busy in the kitchen were probing their brains in the yard, and Aunt Da Jin noticed it, and hurriedly jumped up, trying her best to maintain her crumbling personality: "Oh, I almost forgot my lunch after talking here for a long time." I'm going to go to the kitchen. Do you have any dishes you would like to eat? I'll do it for you? ”

Xie Pu waved his hand: "Whatever." "Doesn't he know that Aunt Dajin is not good at cooking? But Aunt Dajin wants to pretend, and he doesn't bother to expose it.

Aunt Dajin rolled up her sleeves and went back to the kitchen, and it didn't take long for her to shout that she was almost done and that she could set the meal. Wen hurriedly asked the two girls to help tidy up the table, leaving only Xie Jinzhi and Xie Hanzhi's brothers to talk to Xie Pu.

At this time, Xie Huizhi and Wanqin also returned.

Wanqin saw Xie Pu, paused, and then bowed down and saluted Xie Pu as she had done in the past.

Xie Pu didn't say anything, just nodded: "It's hard work." If you have anything to say, let's talk about it after dinner. Then he turned his head to look at his third son, Xie Huizhi, "Good boy, thanks to you for assisting your aunt and brothers and sisters in this time." I really didn't expect you to be so capable in the past, and I was really impressed. ”

Xie Huizhi was a little excited, and his ears were red. Since he was a child, he has been a gentleman in the eyes of his family, and this is the first time he has received such a high evaluation from his father, and he is very excited.

In order to prove that he is indeed very capable, Xie Huizhi didn't wait for the meal to start, so he said directly to Xie Pu: "My son just came back from the Cao family's land and asked for some latest news. I heard that the situation in Pingnanbo Mansion has not been good recently, and the queen mother and Chengenhou in the palace can't get along with them! There is also the Cao family, who originally said that he was going to marry some general, but he may not be able to marry! ”

Everyone was very surprised, but Xie Pu only frowned: "Eat first, and then talk after eating." ”

Xie Huizhi was poured cold water, and immediately calmed down, and agreed with some curtle.

When everyone moved to the table and took their seats, and helped put the dishes sent from the kitchen on the table, Xie Mulin looked empty, pulled the corners of Xie Zhengzhi's sleeves, and asked quietly, "What's the matter?" Why can't the Cao family marry that Fang Wenshan? Didn't the Cao family look forward to their marriage? ”

Xie Huizhi's spirit perked up a little, and he secretly glanced at his father's side, and then whispered to Xie Mulin: "I heard that the queen mother in the palace spread the word that Fang Wenshan could not be the commander of the Praetorian Guard, and the emperor appointed someone else to sit in that position, Fang Wenshan is still a deputy general, it seems that he has also provoked the emperor's dislike, and he will be transferred away at some point." In addition, the palace is talking about the Cao family's gossip, which has already damaged the reputation of the queen mother, so the queen mother opposes the Cao family's continued marriage to Fang Wenshan. ”

Not only that, Xie Huizhi also has some additional gains today: "The news of my father's acquittal has spread. I will go to Cao Rong's house again today, and his old man's attitude towards me has also improved greatly, and he asked the girl to grab more fruits for me to eat. I see, Cao's family room and second room seem to be deliberately showing favor to me. Cao Rong also said that now Cao's family room and second room can't get along with the third room, as long as it is what Pingnan Bofu wants to do, Cheng Enhou and Cao Erye don't want him to do it! This time, Pingnanbo's Mansion is really going to be cold! ”
