Chapter 609: Proposal
Xie Mulin took a deep breath, hurriedly swept the rest of Xiao Rui's letter, and found that it didn't seem to have anything to do with Xie Pu's current situation, but Xiao Rui was introducing his experience on this journey to the north or something, so he temporarily put the letter away, planning to read it later.
Her heart was beating quite fast, and she felt that with Xiao Rui's long-standing habit, she was going to say something embarrassing and blushing at the back of the letter, so she was embarrassed to look at it in front of Gu Niangzi, for fear that if she showed something strange at that time, it would make Xiao Rui's people see the joke.
Speaking of which, the letter mentions the attack on Xie Pu, and the various details are very clear. Xiao Rui had not yet arrived in Peking when he wrote the letter, and he could know this, of course, by listening to the henchman sent to Peking in advance. And the reason why that henchman was so concerned about the attack on an official who had nothing to do with Xiao Rui on the surface, and inquired about the matter so clearly...... I'm afraid that I also know Xiao Rui's intentions for the second girl of the Xie family, right?
Xie Mulin couldn't help but think of the small shop that Xiao Rui sent people to Huyin County to open before, and then remembered the two times before when he gave spring plates and birthday gifts, and those strange people who came to visit her with Gu Niangzi...... Her face couldn't help but heat up again. Xiao Rui, this guy, could it be that before he pursued her, and without her approval, he first shouted about what he liked about her so that everyone around him knew about it? This, this, this...... That's embarrassing!
Xie Mulin secretly glanced at Gu Niangzi, and saw her smiling and looking at herself on the small pestle, with love and joy on her face, and suddenly felt uncomfortable.
She coughed lightly and tried to maintain her composure: "My brother, sister and I just heard the news of my father's attack from others, but I don't know how my father was injured, and I am anxious. Now that I can get a letter from Xiao Ergongzi, I am really grateful. Knowing that my father was only slightly injured and that it was not a major problem, I was finally relieved. Thank you Gu Niangzi for coming to deliver the letter, today is really hard. ”
Gu Niangzi smiled and said, "Second Miss Xie doesn't have to be polite. This is a piece of our master's heart. can contribute to the master, how can this little thing be said to be hard? ”
Xie Mulin laughed dryly: "I don't know which messenger it is?" It was really hard for him to gallop all the way into Beijing. After that, he called Cui Jiao to get the best red seal. It is more important than anything else to get the letter of Xie Pu's injury, and this money still has to be spent.
Because it was a reward for others, Gu Niangzi did not refuse, only smiled and said that she wanted to thank Mu Lin for the reward on behalf of the messenger, and asked with concern: "What did our master say in the letter?" Is everything okay, Mr. Xie? I vaguely heard the messenger mention that Master Xie seemed to be injured. ”
"It's hurt." Xie Mulin felt that there was nothing to hide about this, so he told her, "I was stabbed on my left arm, but it was only a flesh wound, and I also had a crutch on my foot, so I had some difficulty moving, but everything else was fine." Saying that, Xie Mulin couldn't help but worry, this injury doesn't sound serious, but the foot injury must be taken care of, and it is difficult to move, but Xie Pu still insists on continuing to go to the office the next day, can he heal the injury? Speaking of which, how did the Peiping Political Envoy Department arrange? The Lantern Festival has to work the next day, don't they have a Lantern Festival holiday? Or was the style of the officials at that time so hardcore, even on holidays, they would actively work overtime? Xie Pu only brought people with him, and if he insisted on working overtime, he was afraid that no one would be able to persuade him. Qiankun Audiobook.com
Break your muscles and bones for 100 days. Xie Mulin was really worried that Xie Pu would be busy and ignore his body and make himself lame.
Gu Niangzi said with a smile: "The adults in the court are loyal to their duties, and they can't care about anything else when they are busy. The same is true of our generals, because they are busy with military affairs, and they often can't stay at home during the New Year's holidays. Madame didn't know how many times she complained, but the general didn't take it to heart. It was easy to come back and live at home for two days, and the eldest lady was stricter, so angry that the lady and the young lady complained. Seeing this, the general simply left again. He was quiet, but how did he know that his family was actually looking forward to him staying at home for a few more days? Master Xie must be the same, he is dedicated to being loyal to the court, and he forgets about himself. ”
That's true. Xie Pu used to be in the field, although he was suspected of avoiding the Cao family, but he was busy with official business, and he only went home to see his wife and children once in three and five years, which was also speechless. The officials of this era seem to be quite respectful of this style of forgetting selfishness in their official duties, as if they are truly loyal ministers who leave their wives, children, and families to live at home, and do not care about their feelings and interests.
But I don't know that no matter how hard the man in charge of the family is an official outside, he may not be able to resist his wife and children dragging behind him. It's really normal to leave your children behind and raise your wife, but teach a cheating son or something. This is really tragic retribution for officials who do not care about their families.
Xie Mulin is also too lazy to spit out, she is not very familiar with Gu Niangzi, and she has not made up her mind to marry Xiao Rui in the future, so it is not appropriate to talk shallow and deep.
But Gu Niangzi gave her advice affectionately: "Master Xie is injured now, and there are no relatives around to take care of him." Although the subordinate can take care of his diet and daily life, it is incomparable with the family. He is the master, and when he loses his temper, who dares not to listen to him? He still has to have his wife and children by his side so that he can have a good life and recuperate. Isn't Miss Xie going back to her hometown in Huyin? I heard that Mrs. Xie is also in her hometown, why don't you accompany Mrs. Xie and her brothers and sisters to Beiping to take care of Mr. Xie? Otherwise, Master Xie is alone and has injuries on his body, which is really worrying. Although the family lives in Huyin peacefully, it is inevitable that they will be worried! ”
If the Xie family really goes to Beiping, they will be close to her master. Gu Niangzi still likes Xie Mulin in her heart to marry her own master, and she is a little worried that they are far away, and they have been separated for three or two years. If the two of them are close, both in the north, the master can always go to the Yan Wangfu three or two times a year, if he can be transferred to the command of the Yan Wang, directly stationed in Beiping, then it will be more convenient to meet, and by the way, in front of the master Xie to offer courtesy, please the future father-in-law. When the time comes, the time is right, the master has made military merits again, and when he wants to propose to Master Xie, he will be more sure.
Gu Niangzi had a wishful thinking for Xiao Rui in her heart, and looked at Xie Mulin with blank eyes, eager for her to nod and agree immediately.
Xie Mulin was a little confused. Going to Beiping? Xie Pu was injured, and it seemed that the family should send someone to take care of him, and the most suitable person was Wen. Originally, their mother and daughter also planned to go north after the beginning of spring this year. It's just that now she accompanies Xie Xianzhi to Beijing to pick up Xie Yinghui and Xie Yingrong's sisters, and the itinerary has been pushed back. When the four of them returned to Huyin, she still had to accompany Wen to Beiping. The second brother Xie Jinzhi is going to take the Xiucai exam this year, and I'm afraid I won't be able to go along. The eldest brother Xie Xianzhi can be considered because of filial piety. Several other sisters and brothers also ......
Not...... Gu Niangzi's proposal is quite reliable.
