Chapter 154: Asking to See

After Xie Mulin listened to what Wen said, he was a little surprised, and had a faint guess: "Does the Zhou family know that there is an aunt in our family who has a complicated relationship with that couple?" Otherwise, Mrs. Xu was absconded with money, what does it have to do with us? The mother-in-law came over to give a gift and conveyed Mrs. Zhou's words, and it was over, so there was no need for Tete to tell us about this gossip triviality, right? ”

Wen smiled and said, "No matter what the intentions of the Zhou family are, anyway, we know the news, just tell Aunt Qin." This can be regarded as reassuring her, the eyes and ears planted by the Cao family in Beiping City, and there will never be a chance to threaten her again. ”

Xie Mulin chuckled. It's not that it won't threaten Wanqin, but there will be a chance to contact Wanqin and urge her to betray the Xie family, right?

Xie Mulin was not worried about this in the first place. The Zhou family may have just noticed that an aunt of the Xie family had acted abnormally, but they have been guarding filial piety recently, and they probably don't know that the Ye family has found it from the capital. Wanqin's relatives are no longer in the Chengenhou Mansion, and she is more tightly controlled by the Xie family, so why is there any need to be the eyes and ears of the Cao family? Although the situation of the Cao family is much easier than before, the loss of real power also means that they have to stay away from the people who hold real power, and the marriage of the children of the Cao family is still a problem, even if they have any resources, they can't get the daughters of outsiders. Wanqin should have thought about this a long time ago, and it was impossible for her to have delusions about Cao Wentai anymore.

However, Xie Mulin still told his little sister Xie Yingfen about it as usual, and Xie Yingfen told Wanqin again.

Wanqin was stunned when she heard this, and wanted to ask her daughter: "Did the couple go back to Cao's house, or did they run away?" ”

Xie Yingfen shrugged: "Who knows?" But in the end, they are the people who betrayed the Cao family, and now the Cao family doesn't need so many people. If they do find it, it won't end well, right? It would be better to take the money and live in a place where no one knows them. I inquired with Uncle Zhao privately, and it is said that the silver they took away from Mrs. Xu was more than 6,000 taels! And because of the recent discussion in the city about the release of Yinzi money, there has been a lot of uproar, and this silver is not very visible, so Mrs. Xu, the bitter master, is not embarrassed to report to the official! As long as the couple never asks Mrs. Xu to bump into each other again in this life, there will be no trouble. There is so much money for them to be rich for a lifetime. The fool went back to Cao's house to be a servant! The Cao family has lost its previous power and scenery, and they are thousands of miles away, what can they do? ! ”

Wanqin opened her mouth and hesitated for a long time, but after all, she still didn't say anything.

What else could she say? The Cao family now seems to be in no danger of extinction, but it is no longer the high-ranking ministers of the past. Even a few eyes and ears who are in charge of investigating intelligence in foreign places dare to openly betray the lord and flee with money, she, an old maid who has already betrayed the lord, still has any nostalgia for the Cao family? That's it, that's it, the Cao family now, I'm afraid that Xie Pu, who is a high-ranking official, is not doing well! The water flows low, and the people go high. She is a concubine, since she has gotten rid of the quagmire and enjoyed wealth and glory, she should not always worry about the old master, it is meaningless!

To be a man, you still have to look forward!

Aunt Wanqin quickly changed her mind.

Xie Yingfen didn't know that her biological mother had changed so quickly, and she still regarded her as a dead brain in the past, and said a lot of persuasive words. Wanqin was also embarrassed to directly say that she would not be a down-and-out old master anymore, so she seemed too powerful, so she tried to change the topic: "It's not ...... How many times did my father want to ask to see the eldest young master? The eldest young master still didn't agree to see him? ”

Xie Yingfen stopped persuading and reluctantly replied to her biological mother's words: "What else is there to see?" After the Lantern Festival, didn't the Ye family enter the house to kowtow to the eldest brother and sister? also asked Ye Laogao and his wife to come to see his aunt. One time is enough, and the reward is not less theirs, and now they are shouting all day long to see big brothers and sisters again, what kind of idea are they playing?! Our family is good enough for them, and we have arranged a place to live, and there is no shortage of food, clothing, and housing, but I just thought that they were not familiar with life in Beiping City, and we were afraid that they would make trouble, so we stopped them from going out. Besides, the situation of the Cao family was not good a few days ago, and the nominal owner of the Ye family was surnamed Cao, and he didn't let them go out to protect them. Why doesn't Ye Laogao's family know what to do, and they still have to make a lot of trouble?! ”

Xie Yingfen was very angry about this. Although she didn't recognize it, Ye Laogao was always her maternal grandfather by blood. The Xie family has already raised the Ye family, they have good food and drink, they still want to make trouble, what do they want? She and her fourth brother Xie Huizhi felt deeply shameless.

Wanqin is the daughter of Elder Ye Gao, and she has been waiting by Cao Shuqing's side for many years, but she guessed something slightly: "You said earlier that the news of the capital has spread to Beiping City one after another, and there are people talking about the Cao family on the street, will it be ...... My father also heard about it, and when they knew that the Cao family was safe, they wanted to ......"

Xie Yingfen raised her eyebrows: "They want to go back to the capital?!" "This is possible, after all, the Ye family has lived in the capital for many years.

Wanqin smiled bitterly and shook her head: "I'm afraid it's not only that." They were ordered by Mrs. Cao to escort their belongings to Beiping. Now that the Cao family has nothing to do, with the temperament of Mrs. Cao, most of them will not leave the capital and go to this bitter cold place in Beiping to live. There are no her clansmen here, her children are not close to her, and her ex-husband who has always had a grudge is here, but if there is another choice, Mrs. Cao will not run away to be bored. In this way, the goods that are brought in will ......"

Xie Yingfen's eyes widened in disbelief: "Is it possible...... Ye Laogao's family still wants to get things back?! Isn't this what the Cao family handed over to their biological children?! Before Ye Laogao left Beijing, she could still tell them that once the Cao family had nothing to do, they would get their property back from their own children and send it back to her. This is also a mother?! The eldest sister is going to get married this year, and the eldest brother is going to see each other this year, whether it works out or not, they will always get married this year and next year. Cao's mother-in-law, even this bit of property has to be recovered, and her biological children are going to get married, so she doesn't say anything?! ”

Wanqin smiled bitterly: "Even if you want to give, you can't give so much!" Last time, the eldest young master called the fourth young master and the fourth girl, you and me, let us follow the list given by Zhao Fengnian, count the old things of the Xie family in the past, and only leave the wife's things, register them separately, and then seal them. The rest of this alone is worth 10,000 handfuls of silver, and there are several sets of heads and faces with years, which look like the craftsmanship of the palace and must have been given from the palace in previous years. How could Mrs. Cao be willing to give away such a good thing easily? She's going to keep it for the scene! ”

Xie Yingfen sneered, she had nothing to say: "Anyway, our Xie family's things have been detained, and even the jewelry made from our Xie family's silver when the Cao family was still in the Xie family in the past, my father didn't care about her." Our Xie family is kind enough! If the Cao family wants to get her things back, let her tell the big brother and sister! If she can pull this face, can our Xie family still be stingy?! If you want to do such a thing with Ye Laogao's subordinates, it is a dream! ”
