Chapter Ninety-Seven: Lost

Xie Huizhi walked to his brother and sister, but saw Xie Mulin staring behind him for some reason. He looked back suspiciously, only to find that Xie Yingrong had not come back with him, and was still by the side of the Jiang family brothers, and he even posed as a fake immortal.

He rolled his eyes, turned around and went back and pulled Xie Yingrong hard. Xie Yingrong didn't notice his approach, she was pulled coldly and staggered, startled, but she was pulled by Xie Hui all the way, she couldn't shake off his hand, she was so angry that she couldn't care about pretending to be a lady in front of her sweetheart, and screamed on the spot: "What are you doing?" Let it go! ”

Xie Huizhi didn't care, and continued to drag people forward. Although there are many people around, there are not many who are willing to meddle in their affairs, at most they look at them curiously. In this kind of neighborhood, most of the residents are eunuchs, and there are very few idlers, hooligans and ruffians, etc., but there will be housekeepers of rich and noble families who beat and scold their servants. Who knows what the relationship is between this teenage man and woman? What's the entanglement? No one would meddle in the housekeeping of other people's homes.

Only Jiang Yuliang heard Xie Yingrong's voice and looked back with some concern, but when he found that it was Xie Huizhi who pulled her away, he stopped paying attention and continued to look back and listen to his brother and cousin talking. Jiang Shaoliang, on the other hand, glanced at Xie Huizhi and Xie Yingrong, and then looked at his younger brother, with a vague guess in his heart, but he didn't plan to say it.

Because that doesn't make any sense.

Xie Huizhi and Xie Yingrong returned to the place where their brothers and sisters were waiting. The former shook off Xie Yingrong and snorted coldly: "It's really enough!" You don't have a face, we still have a face! Baba begged the old lady to ask us to take you out, thinking that you really wanted to help the old lady share her worries, but I didn't expect it to go for a man! ”

Xie Yingrong's face turned red: "What nonsense are you talking about?!" I...... I'm just looking for someone to find out the news! ”

Xie Huizhi said sarcastically: "Yo, so powerful? Then tell me, what did you find out from Jiang Yuliang? ”

Xie Yingrong was speechless for a while, but then answered this question, but what she said was basically what Xie Huizhi told her brothers and sisters before, presumably she listened carefully to her brother's words before looking for Jiang Yuliang.

But Xie Huizhi immediately pierced her: "What's the difference between these news and what I inquired about?" Besides, the surname Jiang has only been here for a short time, so can he know so many things? I'm afraid you're fooling people, right? There are some things that you have done, what else is there to hide? Could it be that you also know etiquette and shame, so you are embarrassed to tell the truth?! ”

Xie Yingrong trembled with anger: "You stinky boy! How dare you slander me?! When I go back, I'll tell my aunt! ”

Xie Huizhi paused for a moment, and immediately turned cold: "If you want to sue, you can sue, even if your aunt has always protected you, it is impossible to condone you to do those shameless things!" ”

Xie Yingrong's eyes widened, and he was about to scold back, but was interrupted by Xie Jinzhi: "Okay! Let's not say a word. This is outside, so many people are watching, you will quarrel, and you are not afraid to make people see jokes! ”

Xie Yingrong reacted at this time, this is in Wangjia Hutong, not in Li's house. She looked in the direction of the Jiang brothers and the person in a little panic, and found that they were still talking head-to-head, and they didn't look at her side, and she didn't know whether to breathe a sigh of relief or be disappointed for a while.

How so? Although she couldn't dress up carefully today, this dignified and reserved style is exactly what Cheng Du likes, why didn't he look at her more? She wasn't ugly! In this life, he has never been obsessed with Jiang Shaoliang, and if he has a bad reputation, where will he not be able to attract him? !

Xie Yingrong bit his lip, thinking that maybe Cheng Du was now focused on the fire of the Wang family, and wanted to know how miserable the Cheng Wang family, who had harmed his family a lot, so he didn't have the leisure to pay attention to other things? When she sees him a few more times, he will slowly discover the benefits of her? From this point of view, she still has to maintain a good relationship with Jiang Yuliang. Jiang Yuliang has a good relationship with Cheng Du's cousin, and he introduced himself to Cheng Du in his last life. If it weren't for the fact that her reputation was too loud, Cheng Du disliked it, and gave it back to Jiang Shaoliang, she would not have fallen into such a miserable situation......

Xie Yingrong was still thinking nonsense there, Xie Jinzhi had already done everything that needed to be done, and ordered everyone to return together. Xie Mulin took two steps first, and when she saw that Xie Yingrong was still standing in place, she pulled the corner of her sleeve, and she woke up and followed.

But Xie Yingrong was still a little reluctant: "We're leaving?" Second brother, it's hard to come out once, should we ask more news before we go back? ”

Xie Jinzhi said lightly: "I have already inquired about everything that should be inquired, and if there is anything missing, the third brother will make up for it later." It's not early, and if you don't go back, you won't be able to catch up with lunch at home. If the old lady can't hear from you sooner, I'm afraid she won't have an appetite, right? I'm also worried that my third sister will be punished by the old lady. ”

Xie Yingrong was dumbfounded, so she had to look back at Cheng Du helplessly, one after another, but unfortunately Cheng Du never looked up until she couldn't see anyone at all.

After getting on the boat, Xie Mulin couldn't help but be a little curious when he saw Xie Yingrong's dejected look. She asked Xie Huizhi in a low voice, "Who was talking to the Jiang family brothers just now?" Xie Yingrong's attitude towards him seems to be a little unusual.

Xie Huizhi glanced at Xie Yingrong quietly, and replied in a low voice: "That's Cheng Du from the big house of the Marquis of Ningguo, and he is a cousin of the Jiang family. ”

Xie Mulin had already quickly called up the family relationship table of the Marquis of Ningguo's Mansion in his mind, and he knew it in his heart.

The situation of the Marquis of Ningguo Mansion is somewhat similar to that of the Cao family, the same Yuan wife's wife died early, leaving behind the eldest son, and the stepfamily who remarried gave birth to a son-in-law, competing with the eldest brother for the throne of the heir.

The difference is that the old prince of the Cao family is quite sober-minded, and insists that the eldest son inherit the family business, and the eldest son has a sibling sister who becomes the queen, suppressing the arrogance of the stepfamily; And Ning Guohou listened to the instigation of the step-room, and snubbed the eldest son Cheng Xin, after the eldest daughter of the step-room became Mrs. Ping Nanbo, she relied on the power of the Cao family to send her younger brother Cheng Li to the position of the son, and the eldest son Cheng Xin was completely marginalized in the family, except for his own wife and children, there was no help.

Cheng Xin married his wife Bian, but she was just the daughter of an ordinary six- or seven-grade petty official in Beijing, compared to the Cheng Wang family married by Cheng Li, but she was a well-known family in Beijing, and there were many children in the family who were officials, and there were those who achieved two or three grades, and the two forces could not be compared at all. Cheng Du, the son of Cheng Xin, has a reputation for being smart since he was a child, not only has he been successful in his studies, but he has already won the Xiucai fame at the age of sixteen, and he is also quite favored by Ning Guohou. Cheng Xin was about to be separated by his father, and relying on his son, he survived in the Hou Mansion again.

Although Mrs. Jiang's Xiao Cheng family is also the daughter of the Marquis of Ningguo, because she is a concubine, she has always been the younger follower of her brother and sister, and she is not close to her eldest brother Cheng Xin's family, but there is no big contradiction. The relationship between the Jiang brothers and Cheng Du is also good. Among them, Jiang Yuliang, who is not related to the Cheng family, has the best friendship with Cheng Du, and he is the most comfortable when getting along. Xie Mulin still remembers that in Xie Yingzhen's memory, Jiang Yuliang told her that she participated in the poetry meeting and literary meeting with Cheng Du.

Xie Mulin recalled that the handsome young man he had just met turned out to be a legendary talented person who had been suppressed and still did not hide his brilliance. Xie Yingrong will look at him differently, is it because he will have a great future in the future?
