Chapter 218: Angry Countenance
Mrs. Xie wanted to go out to find a chance to get acquainted with the daughter of the Zhao family, but although she had no choice but to talk about it, she couldn't talk for too long, that is, a few words of gossip, and she was hinted at and put it aside. She was also a little discouraged by this setback, and did not plan to work again.
Xie Mulin mentioned the gossip of Qishanbo's mansion, and her attention was diverted, and she whispered about the gossip of Qishanbo's wife, Bai's family. Since there was a female dependant of the eldest princess of Yongning on the opposite side, and the second daughter-in-law of the eldest princess of Yongning happened to be the maiden niece and nephew of Mrs. Qishanbo, she didn't dare to say too loudly, so she just quietly chewed her tongue with the Wen family and her granddaughters.
Xie Mulin was just listening to the story, which was more interesting than the performance on the stage. In the Taoist temple, it is impossible to sing on stage after all, and most of them are still babbling and babbling, which is very boring.
Mrs. Xie has been friends with the old feudal lords of several high-ranking officials and eunuchs for many years, and she can hear more gossip than Xie Yinghui can hear as a little girl. Her old man is now in full interest, and she has even forgotten the taboo that some things are not good in front of unmarried girls, so she can naturally attract the attention of several granddaughters. Although Wen felt that something was wrong, he didn't have the courage to interrupt, so he could only listen to it together. When Mrs. Xie was done talking, she hurriedly found a reason and changed the topic.
The ladies of the Xie family just mixed until the sun was in the west, and they had to go back, so Mrs. Xie took the lead and said goodbye to the main family.
The Zhao family came to receive them, just a young grandmother, not the one they met when they visited the shrine before. Mrs. Xie wanted to take the opportunity to make a friendship, but she couldn't, so she had to leave in a huff.
After getting into the carriage, she also comforted herself and others very energetically: "We are not like other women's relatives, flattering and flattering, just meeting a wife of the Zhao family when we went to worship and pray for blessings, and chatted a few words." This is the etiquette of scholars. The Zhao family is used to seeing villains, so they naturally want to look up to our Xie family. ”
Wen and Xie Mulin sisters could only laugh dryly. Xie Xianzhi and Xie Jinzhi's brothers were in the men's seat, and they just talked a few words with a few old acquaintances, although there were also children of the Zhao family, but they didn't talk much. They didn't know what was going on upstairs, and they were a little confused when they heard it.
Xie Jinzhi saw that Mrs. Xie was already sitting in the carriage, so he urged everyone: "Let's hurry up and get on the train, it's not early, I'm afraid that when I return to Gongyuan West Street, it should be dark." "Zhoushan is not close to Gongyuan West Street.
Everyone hurriedly got into the car.
Xie Mulin followed behind Xie Yingrong and walked to the side of the car, just in time to see a gorgeous carriage out of the side door of the Taoist temple and drive in front of their group, carrying a burst of fragrant wind.
Xie Yinghui frowned and said, "It's Miss Zhao's car." Today, she was away from the table for half a day, and she didn't know where she went. I almost thought she wasn't here. Later, when she finally came back, I asked the girl to hand her a post, but she didn't reply to me and refused to see me. Before she became the crown princess, she put up a shelf. She was also a layman. She said this a little carelessly, and after saying that, she took the girl's hand and boarded the car.
Xie Yingrong stared at the carriage in the distance, smiled coldly, and whispered sarcastically: "What if you become the crown princess?" It's just death! ”
Xie Mulin heard it clearly behind her, and couldn't help but glance at the back of her head quickly, and reprimanded in a low voice: "Third sister be cautious!" ”
Xie Yingrong's face turned pale, and he was shocked to realize that he had made another mistake today, and lost another word, so he hurriedly boarded the carriage, sat next to Xie Yinghui, and secretly looked at Xie Mulin's expression with fear, for fear that the other party would ask him why he said such a thing after a while. When the time comes, how will she answer?
In the future, she really needs to see her surroundings clearly before she can speak, and she can't be as confused as she is today.
Xie Mulin pretended not to notice Xie Yingrong's gaze and calmly sat down opposite her. As Xie Yingfen boarded the car, the Xie family also embarked on the road home.
However, they didn't go far before they saw a few fast horses galloping from a distance, jumping down in front of the temple and rushing straight into the Taoist temple. The man in the lead was about forty years old, and his face was very ugly. And the entourage he brought with him was even more tall and powerful, and he looked very difficult to mess with.
These people aren't here to make trouble, are they? Today, it is the Zhao family who holds a Jiao party in the Taoist temple! What other dignitaries and nobles such as the Eldest Princess's Mansion and Qishanbo's Mansion are there, who has the courage to make trouble? Although the young lady of the Zhao family, who was rumored to be about to become the crown princess, had already left first, but there were still so many female dependents in the Zhao family, whoever came to the door would hit the Zhao family in the face.
So what the hell is going on?
Xie Huizhi lifted the curtain of the car, looked around for a long time, turned back to the two brothers and said, "That person looks like Qishan Bofu." Today, the Zhao family is having Jiao, and Qi Shanbo's wife and children are also guests, what is he going to do when he comes to the door so aggressively? ”
Xie Xianzhi also frowned. He had heard about the Qishan Bofu and was very displeased with his family's way of doing things, so he did not like to come into contact with his family. The eldest son of Qishan Bo, although he is in a pitiful situation, is too squishy to befriend. Moreover, it is rumored that the eldest son of the eldest son has a good relationship with the children of the General Mansion of the Zhu State, and he is not the same as the grandson of the Cao family.
Xie Jinzhi said: "Qishanbo has no reason and will never dare to offend the Zhao family. He came in a hurry, perhaps on an important matter. We're all outsiders, so we don't have to ask too much. ”
Xie Huizhi shrugged: "That's good, anyway, we're about to leave the capital, and we don't have time to inquire about other people's trivial matters." ”
The Xie family and his entourage came to the pier smoothly, changed to the waterway, and returned to the mansion at Pearl Bridge. By this time it was getting dark.
The Wen family and the juniors returned to Jinxuan Hall to serve Mrs. Xie, and Aunt Dajin had already prepared dinner. The family simply stayed for dinner, and then the Wen family took Xie Mulin's brothers and sisters back to Gongyuan West Street.
By the time they entered the house, the husband had been working for a day.
Everyone was tired, hot and thirsty, and hurriedly went back to their rooms to freshen up. When he was done, Wen returned to the front hall and called the girl's mother-in-law, intending to ask about today's housework, but heard the mother-in-law who stayed at home reported a good news.
Today, Xie Jinkun, who canceled the plan to go to the Pearl Bridge to ask Mrs. Xie for peace due to his wife Ji's accidental fall injury, came to report the good news in person. Ji fainted, not because of heat stroke, but because she was pregnant, and her fetal appearance was still a little unstable. But none of that matters.
The most important thing is that Xie Jinkun and Ji have been married for three years and finally have their own children.
