As soon as Xie Pu said this, Xie Mulin saw a look of shame and self-reproach on Wen's face.

It's not good, the cheap mother will definitely take the responsibility of Mrs. Xie on herself. God knows how Old Lady Xie raised the Wen family in the past? How did he teach people to be so weak, and that Our Lady never dared to rebel against her mother-in-law? Actually, she did it on purpose, right?

Xie Mulin immediately grabbed the opportunity to speak before the Wen family: "Dad, because the third brother heard from the eldest uncle and grandfather that something happened to the Cao family, and he couldn't spare his hands to toss us for the time being, so he was curious about what was going on, so he went out with Aunt Qin to inquire about the news, and he should be back before noon." As for the old lady, she refused to move here, saying that she didn't want to see her uncle and grandfather, and she didn't want to see the people in the clan. No matter how my mother and we persuaded her, she refused to let go, and finally pretended to be sick. We had no choice but to let her go. Just let her continue to stay in the Li family, which is not the same, so the third brother helped find a house near Cheng'en Temple and let the old lady live in it. The third sister followed the past to serve the sick. The mother also hired two mothers-in-law, and the arrangements were very thorough. ”

Xie Jinzhi quickly added: "That house was rented by the third brother with great effort, although it is smaller than this side, it is cleaner and more comfortable, and it is a bit like the courtyard where the old lady used to live at home. The old lady liked it at first sight, and lived in it happily, and there was nothing sick about it. has a third sister Cheng Huan's knees, and it will be fine to come to her old man's house. Yesterday we were too late to deliver the letter to her, and in the morning we were so busy picking up my father that we couldn't spare any manpower. But I think that when my father appears in good spirits before the old lady, the old lady's heart must be full of joy, and she will not think of blaming us for being late. ”

At this time, Wen finally had a chance to speak: "I'm sorry, master, it's all my fault, I failed to take care of the old lady......"

However, Xie Pu, who had already reached a conclusion on the matter because of the words of a pair of children, raised his hand to stop her from continuing.

He said to his wife, "It's not your fault. Whenever my mother encounters people and things in the clan, she is always willful, and you and I should have gotten used to it. However, my uncle is still working hard to save me, but my mother deliberately slapped my uncle in the face in order to get a knot in the past, which is too much. When I go back to ask her old man for peace, I must make it clear to her. In the past, the two rooms lived in two places, and they didn't see each other once a year, and my mother loved to play petty, so I had to let her go, and I would do my filial piety at the end of the horizontal and vertical sect and the second room, and I didn't have to let my mother know. But now, the two sides have met, and I have once again received the grace of my eldest uncle and second aunt, if I am indifferent, will I not become an ungrateful villain? ”

Wen Shi was surprised, and then said carefully: "If the old man really wants to say these words to the old lady, he has to consider the sentences." If the old lady is annoyed by this, she is afraid of ...... It didn't end well. ”

Xie Pu sighed: "Although my mother has suffered some small hardships in her life, she has not really suffered, and there are always people who can indulge her to live as she wants." But now it is not as good as in the past, although I am safe and sound, but the future career is unpredictable, even if the emperor is magnificent, give me official reinstatement, I am just a small prefect, no longer have the name of the emperor's relatives. If my mother continues to have no scruples as she always does, she will surely suffer in the future. I'd rather annoy my mother and scold me for being an unfilial son, than if she collided with a noble person in the future, and no one could save me from a big loss. ”

Wen Shi bowed her head silently, although she was still very worried about her husband in her heart, but Xie Pu had already made up her mind, and she would definitely not object.

Xie Mulin and Xie Jinzhi were very much in favor of their father's plan. Mrs. Xie should also learn some lessons. Since she always relies on her son to come here, let her son teach her.

The atmosphere at the scene seemed a little dull, and Aunt Dajin laughed dryly, trying to break the deadlock: "The lord and the wife don't have to worry too much about the old lady." Although she lives elsewhere, she is more comfortable than us, and it is only two months. In two months, we will be able to move back to our house, do we still have to worry that the old lady will live unsatisfactorily? ”

Xie Pu raised his eyes to look at her, and said with a faint smile: "Maybe it's more than two months." However, as long as the mother lives happily, it is the same everywhere. ”

What do you mean by "more than two months"?

Aunt Dajin was a little confused. Xie Pudu was acquitted, can't the property seized by the government be returned?

Xie Jinzhi vaguely guessed a few points: "But the Cao family did it on purpose?" ”

Xie Pu said calmly: "Previously, the Cao family said that my crime was not good, and I asked me to entrust the family's property and property to Ping Nanbo to take care of it first, and the provincial government raided the Xie family, and I couldn't save my life, so that the old and weak women and children in the family had nothing." I handed over the industries in the capital, Suzhou, Songjiang and other places to Pingnanbofu. Later, Cao asked about Guiyuan again, and I also handed it over. Except for the property of the house handed down by the ancestors in his hometown, and the private property of the second room, there is nothing left. ”

Aunt Dajin stammered: "But...... Is the master safe now? They...... Why did they continue to withhold the Xie family's things and not return them? ”

Xie Mulin had already understood, and said to Aunt Dajin: "Auntie, my father wrote the transfer agreement and gave the things to Pingnanbo's Mansion. If the government wants to confiscate those industrial properties, the Pingnan Bofu will do something through the influence of the Cao family, so that the things can fall into their hands. Now that Dad is fine, the property and property confiscated by the government are Daddy's again, and the transfer agreement written by Dad is true and valid, how can Pingnanbo Mansion easily spit things out? ”

Aunt Dajin was shocked.

Wen looked at Xie Pu worriedly, but the latter was very calm: "It's okay, our family is not all homeless, just treat it as an ordinary rich family, and life can still be lived." Without the in-laws of the Cao family, such a huge wealth is not something we can easily keep. Now that everyone outside knows that the Cao family swallowed the Xie family's wealth, we can also clean our ears. ”

Wen said softly: "When the property of the second room is sent back, the master can just take it and make it." ”

Xie Pu nodded, still looking very calm, as if he had not been robbed of millions of family property.

Aunt Dajin has no bottom in her heart. Although it sounds like the Xie family is not poor, in the future, their mother and daughter will really have to look at Wen's face...... Forget it, the Wen family is not difficult to get along with, it is better than letting the Cao family or Mrs. Xie be in charge.

Who knew that Xie Pu immediately startled everyone again: "I may let go of foreign posts again, and I can't stay in Beijing as an official." ”

Xie Jinzhi: "My father has been in charge of the six ministries before, and everyone knows that you want to stay in Beijing, but now there is an accident, is it the meaning of the top, or does my father want to leave?" ”

Xie Mulin blinked: "Is it because you are worried about the existence of the Cao family?" ”

Xie Pu smiled and nodded: "Whether it is the emperor or myself, I feel that it is better to be released." After all, my strength is in the local people's livelihood, even if I reluctantly stay in Beijing, with the Cao family's elbows, it is difficult to get ahead one day. Continuing to release not only allows me to show my strength and accumulate qualifications with confidence, but also avoids the edge of the Cao family in the future. The emperor also has this meaning, but there is no conclusion on where to put it out and what kind of officials it will be. I will recuperate at home for a while, waiting for the order from the officials. ”

He paused and looked around at his family: "After I leave the capital, you can pack your bags and go back to your hometown with your eldest uncle, don't stay in the capital anymore." ”

Everyone was taken aback. In that instant, Shermulin understood. Xie Pu was able to make up her mind to persuade Mrs. Xie to give in, probably because she was about to return to her hometown and live by the clan.
