Xie Xianzhi, Xie Jinzhi, Xie Huizhi and Xie Hanzhi, four brothers, walked into the upper room of the main courtyard one after another. Looking at their faces, they were in good spirits, they should have eaten a little wine, but they didn't drink much, their steps were not chaotic, and they were obviously not drunk.

The four brothers greeted Xie Pu and Wen, and then greeted the sisters separately, and everyone sat down separately.

Wen asked Xie Xianzhi with concern: "Sister Hui'er, how is it?" Have you eaten dinner? No one in the Huang family embarrasses her, right?! ”

Xie Xianzhi replied with a smile: "The eldest sister is fine, when the banquet was held outside, Mrs. Huang ordered someone to bring hot meals to the eldest sister, everything was good, and even a few bridal girls were not left behind." The daughters of the Huang family are also very polite, and there has never been any rudeness. This is all Lu Qi said to me personally, and my aunt can rest assured. ”

The Huang family's house is small, Huang Yan has a banquet of 20 seats today, it is in a time-honored restaurant on the commercial street near his house, relatives and friends almost all pulled over, even the four brothers of the Xie family were invited together, only a few female relatives of the Huang family, several female elders of Mrs. Huang's Zhen family's mother's family, and the two aunts of the Zhen family's in-laws, the Song family, arranged to eat and drink in the Huang family's house and sat at two large tables.

The girls and boys in the Huang family came to have fun, although they had naughty behaviors, but they didn't dare to make a fuss in front of the bride, presumably because they had been advised by the elders in the family in advance, and they didn't dare to make a mistake in front of the daughters of high-ranking officials, and they were even more afraid of offending Huang Yan, a promising fellow clan. Therefore, Xie Yinghui has never been offended since she entered the door of the Huang family, everyone is kind and friendly, and they take good care of her properly and thoughtfully, and even a few girls around her have been stained with a lot of light.

Lu Qi was also secretly surprised, so when she reported to Xie Xian in private, she said many details.

Xie Xianzhi left the table with his younger brothers shortly after dark, and Huang Yan specially sent two henchmen to escort them back to Xie's house. On the way, Xie Xianzhi turned around and went to the Huang family's house, originally just wanted to ask his sister's companion room, his sister was good in the new house, but he didn't expect to wait for his sister's personal girl, but because of this, he knew more news, and at this time he reported to the Wen family one by one.

For example, what is it like in the new house, there is also an ice basin in the corner, far away from the wedding bed, so that the bride will not suffer from the cold, but it can also make the bride suffer less from the heat, and even the people waiting around Xie Yinghui will benefit.

For example, there are no girls in the courtyard of the Huang family, not even girls over the age of thirteen and under the age of thirty, and the same is true for Mrs. Huang.

For example, the female relatives of the Huang family spoke politely to the bride, and the courtesy was thoughtful, there was no deliberate sour language, and there was no rush to curry favor with people, anyway, Xie Yinghui felt good, and thought that when she returned to her hometown in Changping with her husband and mother-in-law, she should be able to get along with the female dependents of these clansmen's relatives.

And so on and so forth.

Xie Xianzhi is not such a trivial person on weekdays, but today he has become particularly verbose. But Wen didn't care, but asked very carefully, and Xie Pu also listened carefully. The other brothers and sisters all smiled and listened, and occasionally interjected a few words to make fun, only Xie Yingrong was the most unsociable, and quietly yawned twice during the period, but she has been learning expression management recently, so she covered it with a handkerchief, if Xie Mulin wasn't sitting next to her, she wouldn't be able to see her little action.

Xie Yinghui married into the Huang family, everything went smoothly on the day of the big joy, judging from the attitude of the Huang family and many in-laws, she will most likely always be treated preferentially in the future, and no one will deliberately embarrass her. This fact made the Xie family secretly relieved. This is the first girl in the family to get married, and everyone is not very used to it, so we must make sure that she is still living well after getting married, so as to feel at ease.

Xie Jinzhi also talked about the guests who went to Huang's house to congratulate him today: "Many of them are friends that Huang's brother-in-law made in the past, most of them are scholars, and a few of them have a small reputation in the local Shilin. and Huang Da's classmates and peers before his death also sent their sons and nephews to congratulate him. There are children of local officials, and their parents are afraid that they are eating and drinking in our family; There are also children of local famous families, probably met by Huang's brother-in-law when he was in the Zhou family; Among them, the sons-in-law of the Zhou family came, and they also brought Zhou Yazheng's congratulatory gifts by the way. When the son left the table, he was still in the corner of the banquet downstairs, and found two gentlemen who used to be in front of Mr. Zhou, and they all looked a little down. ”

Xie Pu understood: "There were more than a dozen staff members of Boss Zhou during his lifetime, some of whom were good friends with Uncle Zhou, and some of whom were not of the same temperament. Now that the Zhou family has returned to Baoding to keep filial piety, and it is Uncle Zhou who is in charge, he will naturally be disappointed in several staff. But after all, they are all people with some ability, even if they are down for a while, there will be a way to solve it, and you don't need to worry about it. ”

Xie Jinzhi heard that his father didn't plan to recruit those admirers, so he smiled and didn't mention it more. After Xie Pu was promoted to political envoy, his official affairs became more and more busy, but the three gentlemen who could be used by his subordinates were still the three gentlemen, in fact, it was nothing to add a few more, which was far from the staff team of nearly twenty people in front of Master Zhou. The people who have worked in the Zhou family are so familiar with the work that they don't have to be familiar with the work again. But since Xie Pu has no intention of this, he must have the idea of avoiding suspicion, and Xie Jinzhi will naturally not be troubled.

Xie Huizhi noticed that Mrs. Huang's maiden Zhen family may not be in a good situation, obviously several cousins are not bad at talking and learning, but most of them are white, and a small half is left, only two talents have been produced, and the others are just children. The people around them, especially those from the Huang family, were not very respectful to them, and Xie Huizhi also found that most of the clothes on their bodies were a little old, and they looked clean and decent, but they were not new materials. He speculated that the Zhen family was not in a good situation, no wonder he couldn't provide any help to Mrs. Huang a few years ago, so he could only ask his nephew Huang Yan to make a curtain for others, so he fought his head. Considering that the Zhen family was originally the in-laws of the Song family, Xie Huizhi specially told his father Xie Pu about this matter and asked him to consider whether to help the Zhen family next.

Xie Pu frowned, and really thought about it.

Xie Hanzhi is relatively speaking, he is not as complicated as his brothers, he is very happy to come to the Huang family's wedding banquet today, there are many scholars, and they are all the kind with real talent and learning-it is estimated that without talented embroidered pillows, it is impossible to become Huang Yan's sincere friends. Everyone at the banquet was very happy, and they also improvised a congratulatory poem, and a few sentences sounded particularly good, Xie Hanzhi quietly memorized it, and he could be silent when he returned to the room after a while. Thanks to the blessing of his eldest brother-in-law Huang Yan, he talked to several talented people he admired, and made an appointment with someone to exchange more letters and exchange poetry experiences in the future!

Xie Pu listened to his youngest son's words and smiled slightly: "Very good." Since you have the heart to study in this, you should ask your seniors for advice, and you should learn how to do it. It's just that you're still young and weak, can't you burn your body because you're too addicted to books and poetry, remember? ”

Xie Hanzhi's eyes were shining, and he responded loudly: "Yes, father!" Son remembered! ”
