Xie Jinzhi and Xie Yingrong returned to the Li family smoothly. There were no accidents and no accidents were met.

As soon as Xie Yingrong stepped into the door of the Li family, the whole person became listless, and even Xie Mulin asked her, "What kind of soup are you going to make with the medicinal herbs you bought?" He didn't answer, and he didn't even go to report to Mrs. Xie, so he went straight back to the room and lay down.

When Xie Mulin saw this, he knew that something must have happened to her, and asked Xie Jinzhi in a low voice. Xie Jinzhi replied calmly: "It's nothing, I let Yan Jitang's people watch her and didn't let her go out." She probably wanted to go shopping, but she couldn't make it, and she thought it was a disappointment, right? ”

Xie Mulin quickly glanced at Sister Zhang Qiao, who was sitting under the porch making small jewelry, and Mother Wang, who was busy in the kitchen, and smiled understandingly: "The third sister is really childish, and the second brother is also thinking about her safety." He didn't say more, and ran to fiddle with the medicinal materials that Xie Yingrong bought back with Wang's mother. Tonic soup or something, Xie Mulin also knows a few recipes, and he makes them for the old lady to eat, and there is no pressure at all.

But why did she do it? It was Xie Yingrong who wanted to be filial to Mrs. Xie, how could she be a sister and compete with her?

Xie Mulin picked out the medicinal materials he wanted to use, and at the same time motioned to Wang Ma to put Xie Yingrong's share away and prepare Xie Yingrong to cook.

When she was done with her own affairs, when she returned to the room, she didn't forget to remind Xie Yingrong that she wanted to stew supplements for the old lady, hearing that Xie Yingrong's face turned pale, and she couldn't continue to clean up her mood, so she hastily tidied up her clothes and hair, and ran towards the kitchen.

Xie Mulin thought to himself, what a good sister she is!

When there was no one around, she went to ask Xie Jinzhi what happened during the process of going to the clothing assessment gallery.

Xie Jinzhi told her the details, and mentioned that he told the Jiang family brothers that Xie Yingrong was infatuated with Jiang Yuliang, and even had the idea of making him an outer room.

Xie Mulin smiled in surprise: "This ...... Isn't this Zhang Guan Li Dai? The third sister shouldn't have this idea, right? ”

Xie Jinzhi said lightly: "Anyway, what she said was nonsense, why should she involve you?" Just let Jiang Yuliang know that she is talking nonsense. The Jiang brothers know how to be proportionate, and they will not spread rumors and ruin her reputation, but they will not believe her words and have any misunderstandings about you. That's good, don't let her go out at will in the future, so as not to make any jokes about Zhang Yuliang and Li Yuliang. ”

Xie Mulin couldn't help but laugh and laugh when he heard this, thinking that if Xie Yingrong knew what Xie Jinzhi said to the Jiang family brothers, he was afraid that he would vomit blood. However, the object that Xie Yingrong is interested in now should still be that Cheng Du, right? Even if the Jiang family brothers die, as long as they don't spread this kind of scandal and let Cheng Du know, Xie Yingrong still has hope.

Forget it, Xie Mulin felt that he really didn't know what kind of medicine Xie Yingrong was selling in his gourd. Anyway, this girl is not a smart person, and she has no power to act, but if she thinks crankily all day long, let her go.

Then, Xie Jinzhi took out a small stack of paper from his arms and handed it to Xie Mulin: "Second sister, put it away for me." When the third brother came back, he handed one to him and took it out to exchange it for broken silver or small silver tickets, ready for daily use. The third brother often runs outside, and he also needs to be rich. Always relying on you to make some small jewelry and sell some pastries to save money is not a long-term solution. ”

Xie Mulin was taken aback, she found that what Xie Jinzhi handed her was a stack of eight silver tickets, each with a denomination of fifty taels of silver. The silver ticket is seven or eight percent new, and the name of one of the most famous big money houses in the capital is printed on it.

She hurriedly asked Xie Jinzhi: "Where did this come from?" ”

Xie Jinzhi's expression was very calm: "Jiang Shaoliang gave it." The Cao family rewarded the two thieves, and the reward was 150 taels of silver per person, for a total of 300 taels for the two. I didn't want to deal with the Cao family, but Jiang Shaoliang said that he couldn't make me suffer, so he gave me three hundred taels out of his own pocket, and made up another one hundred taels as thank you. The three of us brothers and sisters just know this matter in their hearts, and we don't have to mention it in front of anyone in the future. When the third brother came back, you also remember to tell him, so that when he was dealing with Cao Rong and others, he accidentally said something that leaked. ”

Xie Mulin was still very surprised, was this a little strange: "Why did Jiang Shaoliang give you so much money?" You just told him the news, and you didn't really help him catch someone. ”

Xie Jinzhi smiled: "How can you help him catch someone?" I'm afraid he hopes that the Cao family can't find those two people, right? I told him the news, and it was quite timely. The thief couple is already changing their outfits and will presumably leave the capital soon. Even if they had shown up in the area of Beimen Bridge and leaked their whereabouts, when the Cao family heard the news, they couldn't find anyone. He paused, "Or maybe they found someone, but it wasn't the person they were looking for." ”

It's a bit like a tongue twister. Xie Mulin was a little confused at first, but slowly came to his senses. She whispered to Xie Jinzhi: "The thief couple...... Does it have anything to do with Jiang Shaoliang? Could it be that they stole the jade pendants of Jiang Shaoliang and Miss Cao and destroyed the conspiracy of Wang Angui's eldest daughter...... What else is there to know? Jiang Shaoliang gave you four hundred taels of silver, is he bribing you to shut up? ”

Xie Jinzhi couldn't help laughing: "Don't think too much. He really didn't know the whereabouts of those two, but now that he knew, he knew what to do. I mentioned before that Jiang Shaoliang's temperament is different from his parents. He has what he wants, but his family background does not allow him to do what he wants, so he can only use his own methods to achieve his goals. Although I dislike Jiang Shilang and his wife as people, I have no intention of destroying Jiang Shaoliang's intentions. He left a hole in his work, and I reached out to fill it for him. He will feel my kindness in his heart, and he will repay it. These four hundred taels of silver are only his compensation for the Jiang family's treachery, but what he wants to repay me will certainly not be just floating wealth. The third sister doesn't have to care too much, she just needs to put away the silver ticket and prepare for it to spend in the future. ”

Although Xie Pu said that it won't be long before the government will return the confiscated property in the second house, God knows when the property in the long house will return to the Xie family? If the Xie family, a large group of old and weak women and children, have to rely on the property of the second room to support them, and they have to worry about Xie Pu's recovery in the future, how can that little bit of silver be enough? Now it is a little bit to be able to make up for it......

Xie Jinzhi analyzed with his sister very worriedly, Xie Mansion was originally built under the auspices of the Cao family, and he didn't know if he could return to the Xie family in the future. Then, the second room will need to buy a house in the capital at that time, and the cost is not a small amount. He is the eldest son of the second room, and he wants to share his mother's worries, this money is hidden from the Wen family first, and the house will be bought back in the future, and then he will give his mother a surprise......

Xie Jinzhi said it very well, but Xie Mulin was keenly aware of the essence of "cutting first and then playing", and happily reached a consensus with his brother.

For dinner that day, Mrs. Xie ate Xie Yingrong's filial piety tonic soup, but the taste was nothing special, and it was mediocre. She reluctantly accepted her granddaughter's filial piety, but she still felt a little disgusted in her heart. Helpless a few granddaughters, the youngest Xie Yingfen has never learned cooking, Xie Yingzhen makes good soups and pastries, but she has no filial piety, she can only count on a pampered Xie Yingrong, and she can't ask too much.

Thinking about it this way, Mrs. Xie is in a good mood. However, before dinner was over, her good mood was over first.

Xie Jinkun, who had gone far away, finally returned to Jinling City. He didn't care about the dust, and found the door of the Li family overnight. Accompanying him was his old father Xie Zeshan, the patriarch of the clan, who came from his hometown.

At the same time, he is also Mrs. Xie's uncle.
