Thinking of Huang Yan, Xie Xianzhi's heart settled down a lot.

Wen also comforted him: "The master has long instructed the people in the shops in the capital to pay more attention to the news of the Cao family. If your mother is really in trouble, she will definitely help. No matter how much you grudge the old things, it depends on you and Sister Hui'er's face! ”

Xie Xianzhi choked and nodded, thanking Wen, but he still planned to write a letter to Beijing, and by the way, he brought a private piece of silver he had saved as the cost of his mother. Even if Huang Yan and Xie had a plan to contribute, he couldn't ask them to pay even the money. It was his mother's mother and sister, who also had a grudge against the Xie family, and refused to recognize Huang Yan as a son-in-law. It's just a matter of saving people, but he can't be cheeky and make the wronged people suffer.

While speaking, Xie Yinghui also wiped away her tears and returned to the sisters' banquet from the end. She heard the conversation of everyone outside, and calmed down a lot, and she also had some expectations for her fiancé in her heart, so she said to her brother: "I also have some silver there, so my brother can bring it with me." I am also the flesh and blood of that person, and if I want to provide for her, I naturally cannot do without my share. ”

Xie Xianzhi hurriedly said: "Sister, why bother? I am the son, and it is my duty to provide for my mother. ”

Xie Yinghui sneered: "I can only make a sum of money before I get married, and when I get married, I will naturally not care about her anymore." It's not that I'm not filial, but I'm worried that she will want to cling to Ziheng and become an official in the future. It is I who owes her the grace of nurturing, and I will repay the kindness, and there is no reason to ask the husband's family to cut the meat to support her. If she scolds me for being unfilial, she will be allowed to go. No matter how unbearable I am, it is better than her leaving her seriously ill mother to elope with wild men. If she really falls into a situation where she is homeless, she has to rely on me to live, there is no food and clothing, I can still afford three meals, how can I be more attentive than her grandmother, whoever scolds me, I will stand up straight! ”

She said to Xie Xianzhi: "The same is true for the eldest brother, no matter how filial he is, he can't indulge her too much!" She is a person who has been used to happiness since she was a child, and she has never suffered hardship. But if the Cao family is really defeated, can we still provide her with the same rich life as before?! If I want to get married, brother, you also rely on the Xie family to support you, and you don't have to produce. How did she treat the Xie family in the past? Almost swept away our entire family's possessions! Could it be that now the eldest brother will continue to spend the Xie family's money to support her and live a luxurious life? There is no such reason! Even if she cries in front of you, the eldest brother must distinguish the importance clearly, and must not be coaxed by her to forget the root cause with a few words, so that the real relatives are cold! ”

Xie Xianzhi sighed: "Am I that foolish person who can't tell the difference between right and wrong?" My sister was too worried. Besides, this is all a shadowless matter, even if the Cao family is going to lose, it will have to wait a few days. If the second room of the Cao family is safe and sound, my mother may not think of us thousands of miles away. Instead of worrying about what will happen in the future, my sister might as well live the life in front of her first. You're going to get married next year, so let's happily prepare to be a bride, and leave the trivial matters to my brother. ”

He glanced around, and said to Wen with some embarrassment: "My sister was worried about her biological mother for a while, and she said a lot of angry things, telling my aunt to watch jokes with all my younger brothers, sisters, and second brother-in-law. ”

Wen smiled, "What's this?" My family should have something to say, and I don't need to worry about anything. If you can't be at ease in your own home, then how can you say it's a home? You brothers and sisters have something on their hearts, you don't have to hide it from anyone, and you don't have to bear it all by yourself, just say it when you have difficulties. If you are still children, you should turn to your parents for help. If you don't even want to accept the help of your loved ones, that's the real life! ”

Xie Xianzhi and Xie Yinghui saluted her together, and they should be obedient. The crowd sat down again and ate the laba porridge that had been cold. Wen ordered someone to remove the porridge and reheat it, but everyone felt that it was unnecessary. It's warm in the room, but it's not really cold. After the hurried meal, everyone began to chat again, but everyone had their own thoughts, and the room could no longer return to the lively atmosphere before.

After eating porridge and drinking tea for a while, Xiao Rui got up and said goodbye. He still has to go back to the Yanwang Mansion to report the news he heard from the post station. If King Yan still wants to get more information from this group of envoys from the capital, he naturally can't count on his son, and there are some things that should be arranged, and they have to be arranged as soon as possible.

Xie Mulin sent him out of the second gate, avoided others on the way, and asked him quietly: "From the mouths of that Gao Gonggong and his entourage, did you only hear the news of Cao Lin's two families and the two princes?" What about the side? For example, the third prince or something? And your identity, how many people in the capital know? The emperor had previously promised to let King Yan's parents inherit the Yan Palace, so there is no intention of changing the hexagram at present, right? ”

Xiao Rui replied to her in a low voice, "Not only are you thinking about these things, but I am also paying attention to them." Today's time is limited, and those people have concerns about talking, and they only hear so much for a while, and I have to go back and explore the wind again. Once I have a quasi-letter on my side, I will definitely not hide it from you. ”

Xie Mulin saw that he didn't hide everything from himself, and he was very happy in his heart: "Then you are so good to take care of your body." These days are very cold, and there are heavy winds and snowstorms from time to time. You don't have to come often, and if the weather is bad, I'd rather stay at home and be warm than brave the snow and wind and snow. And the woolen gloves, ear protectors, neck pads, knee pads and so on that I made for you before, don't be too troublesome, just wear them, and after wearing them, don't you feel that it's not so cold when you go out?! ”

Xiao Rui smiled and nodded: "It's not so cold." I'm not bothered, but I often forget. However, when I returned to the palace, I instructed the people waiting around me to remind me to wear it when I went out. When I get used to it, I can discuss it with my father, and I can also add a batch of similar items to the army in winter, so that the soldiers will be less cold. ”

Xie Mulin said with a smile: "You can just look at this kind of thing, but you don't have to force it." There are so many people in the army, if everyone adds a batch of these small accessories, it will cost a lot. ”

Xiao Rui said: "If it can really benefit hundreds of thousands of soldiers in the army, what is the cost? My father was never stingy with this. He stood on the second door and persuaded his fiancée to go back to the house, "It's windy outside, go back and be warm." I often come to your house, the roads are familiar, you don't have to be carried by anyone, and you won't go to the wrong place. I have all the news you want to know. If the affairs of the palace are too busy, and I can't spare time to see you, I will send someone to deliver a letter. You can just wait for my news at home, don't worry. ”

Xie Mulin smiled and nodded, tidied up the straps of his cloak for him, and watched him turn and leave.
