He took two steps forward and shouted to stop the man.

Xu Wanxi turned her head suspiciously.

"Thank you for taking the plunge." Xie Qian changed his leisure in front of the person, and said with a serious and even solemn expression: "...... The way of husband and wife is to emphasize harmony and mutual respect. Since it was so unpleasant, why didn't Mrs. Zhu reconcile with it? ”

While waiting for Xu Wanxi's answer, no one could see the inexplicable nervousness in his eyes at this time.

"......" Xu Wanxi came back to her senses for a while: "Heli? ”

Are they so familiar with each other?

Xie Qian nodded, still waiting for her to answer.

"Thank you for your kindness, I understand. It's just that...... I won't be separated. ”

Xu Wanxi felt that this topic was really sudden and strange, which made the atmosphere extremely embarrassing, and after saying this, she hurriedly turned around and left.

How could she be reconciled?

She is going to occupy the position of Zhu Xizhou's wife, and she is going to listen to She Lu's children call her a mother!

Why did she spend a lot of time in vain, and after Zhu Xizhou took all the benefits of the Dingguo Mansion, she still had to let go with bruises, so that he could marry his stepfamily with Hemei?

Don't even think about it!

Xu Wanxi is very stubborn.

Besides, if she really left and returned to the Dingguo Mansion, wouldn't she tell the Wan family to see the jokes?

And in this way, the Dingguo Mansion will also lose face.

As the daughter of the Xu family, she can no longer make trouble for the Guogong Mansion.

But then again, why did Xie Qian suddenly say such things to her?

Oh...... She got it!

It must be that His Majesty is enlightened and encourages folk women to remarry...... Xie Qian, as an important minister in the DPRK, intends to promote this move! - She even made political achievements on her head!

So......

After pouting her and leaving, does this person still want to introduce her to a family business?

Thinking of this, Xu Wanxi's face changed for a while.

Then he couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart: It is really worthy of the rumored Xie Gong who is bent on political affairs, afraid that marrying a wife and having children will delay his office......

As she muttered this, the ghost made her feel like she was stunned, and she looked back at her.

But I saw that the tall and thin figure was still standing in place, and he was looking at her from afar.

I didn't know if the four eyes were facing each other, Xu Wanxi suddenly turned her head uncomfortably and sped up her steps to leave.

Seeing her back disappear, Xie Qianshi turned around.

A servant not far away greeted him.

"I'll reply to the clan tomorrow." Xie Qian commanded.

The servant's eyes tightened: "The master has decided?" ”

"Well, let them start preparing for the succession. After sending the portrait, I picked a child who fits my eyes. His tone was still casual and casual.

But the servant was very bitter when he heard this.

"Really...... Do you want to choose this path? ”

Between marrying a wife and having a stepchild, he has to choose the latter, does the lord really want to die alone?

"What's wrong with that?" Xie Qian said with a smile: "If there is no queen, it is unfilial, and I still have to do it as an official."

He can't take care of other people's family affairs.

He can't control the growth of his heart.

But how do you live in the future, you can always be the master.

Knowing that he had made up his mind, the servant could only respond with mixed feelings.

Xie Qian walked forward and stepped on a maple leaf like fire.

Eight years seems like a long time.

What if it was earlier? I don't know if everything in front of me will become a little different.

However, there will be no answer.

……

……

"I told you to stay at home, you have to go out and walk around...... Right now, my legs are so sore that I can't walk. ”

In Kaiyuan Temple, Xu Wanxi held her bulging belly and frowned slightly: "Besides, didn't someone say that pregnant people can't enter the temple to offer incense?" ”

Xie Qian helped her, listened to her chatter, only felt happy, and replied to her while walking slowly forward: "It's just a folk rumor, do you believe such unfounded things." Besides, we don't go to the front hall to worship the Buddha, but only take a rest here - didn't you say that you wanted to come out to enjoy the maple scenery a few days ago? ”

Every autumn, the maple leaves in the backyard of Kaiyuan Temple are also a beautiful scenery in Beijing.

"......" Xu Wanxi twitched the corner of her mouth.

She said that she wanted to come out to see Red Maple, but there was another sentence at the end, she wanted to see it with Zhen Zhen - did this person remember it perfectly?

Seeing that she was indeed tired, Xie Qian helped her into a pavilion not far in front of her to rest.

"Doctor Ming said that it is better to move more. Sweet and greasy things should also be used sparingly. Otherwise, Sheng Yun's childhood sin, I'm afraid you'll have to suffer again—" Xie Qian said after sitting down.

Xu Wanxi's ears were itching when she heard it.

She has been married to this person for more than four years, and gave birth to a daughter in her first child, because the pain during childbirth was a little worse, this person's face sank for a long time, and he was determined not to have a second child.

But she likes children very much, and there is no shortage of silver servants in the family, so if she doesn't give birth to a few more, wouldn't she waste her God-given beauty in vain?

As a result, he naturally couldn't resist her.

However, since she was pregnant, she has been very strict, not allowed to eat, lazy and not allowed to sleep, and even people have become nagging. Not to mention that every time he meets him for a rest, he has to take her out and walk around when he comes back, which makes her feel miserable - now that he is also a person in the household department, why is his official business so little?

If it doesn't work anymore, she turned back to Zhen Zhen and said that she would want His Majesty to send him more work.

Xu Wanxi gritted her teeth and thought.

Master Xie didn't know the 'vicious intentions' of his wife next to him, but he also sensed the other party's anger.

Mr. Sui Na admonished the student and said, "It's this child you insist on, and you know that you regret it?" ”

Xu Wanxi glared at him fiercely when she heard this.

"If I had known that you were so difficult, let alone having children, I would have to think twice about whether I got married or not!"

Hearing this, Xie Qian couldn't help laughing.

At this time, the little girl turned back, holding a cyan bamboo tube and an oiled paper bag in his hand.

Xu Wanxi's eyes lit up slightly.

"Lu Ji's osmanthus syrup." Xie Qian took the things from the little guy's hand, and said with a smile: "There are also rose cakes." ”

Xu Wanxi watched with a blank eye.

She hadn't eaten these things in a while, so was this man going to eat them in front of her? If you don't give it food, what kind of torture is this?

If this surnamed Xie really dares to do this, she will pack up her things and go back to the Dingguo Mansion tonight, so that she will no longer be angry with him!

Facing the pair that seemed to be about to explode in the next moment, stretched out his paws towards him and scratched his eyes, Xie Qian pushed the thing in front of her.

sighed and said, "Eat, I bought it for you." ”

Xu Wanxi was stunned.

This man is so kind today?

Suspiciously, Xie Qian had already handed a piece of rose cake to her mouth, and she subconsciously took a bite.

The long-lost sweet taste made her feel good, and her temper suddenly disappeared, and she tasted the osmanthus syrup with crooked eyebrows.

At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps.

Xu Wanxi hurriedly stopped eating.

Although since marrying Xie Qian, the more she lives, the more comfortable she feels, the rules that have been engraved in her bones for many years still can't be changed, and it is a little inappropriate to eat snacks outside, and some people want to avoid it.

Xie Qian knew her thoughts very well, and when she heard the footsteps, she had already turned sideways to block his wife behind her.

At this time, when I looked up, I saw that it was not a stranger.

Zhu Xizhou's feet were slightly sluggish for a moment, but in the end he stepped forward and bowed: "Lord Xie, Mrs. Xie." ”

Aunt She beside him also saluted.

Seeing that her face was weak, Xu Wanxi glanced at her more.

Zhu Xizhou and Xie Qian exchanged pleasantries, and his eyes fell on the snacks and honey on the stone table, and there was a faint mockery in his heart.

Eating outside, after she married Xie Qian, she became more and more disregarding the rules.

In this way, it can be regarded as the right one.

is so ironic, but there is still unspeakable unwillingness in the bottom of my heart.

Once, he also had a chance -

In the two years since he first entered the officialdom as a jinshi, it can be said that he has seen the warmth of human feelings and the ruthlessness of interests.

Since marrying a wife last year, even if I don't want to admit it, with the support of the Yue family, it can be regarded as a little easier.

But it's just a little, after all, the father-in-law is old, and he can't be regarded as a strong backer, so he still has to rely on himself after all.

After leaving with Aunt She, Zhu Xizhou was obviously a little absent-minded.

"Sir...... But you still can't forget Mrs. Xie......" She Lu said with her head lowered and her eyes were slightly red.

She really loves the master, although she has just had a miscarriage after being embarrassed by the wife of the family, but what makes her even more sad is that she has always been aware of some of the master's hidden thoughts.

The old man has always been calm and self-controlled, but whether he is facing Miss Xu in the past or Mrs. Xie now, the ups and downs of his mood are different from usual.

"Shut up!"

Zhu Xizhou was shocked, and reprimanded with a calm face: "How can such words be said nonsense-Ah Lu, you are becoming more and more ignorant of the rules now!" ”

Fortunately, there was no one around, so he was able to calm down.

She Lu came back to her senses, and said with a white face: "It's the concubine who lost her words......"

She has also encountered too many unpleasant things recently, so she will become more and more confused, and she can't speak for a while.

Seeing her crying again, Zhu Xizhou's heart was full of impatience, so he said: "Today, I accompanied you out to offer incense, because I took care of you and my master and servant, and I can't bear to see you fall into the crux of the problem." However, you have such a temperament, and it is really incompatible with her, and I am now tired of officialdom, and I really don't have the strength to deal with the dispute in the back house - you have always been sensible, and you should know the importance of it. ”

Aunt She's face turned a little paler.

Disagreement?

The wife in the family was shrewd and ruthless, and she didn't even have time to do anything, and the other party couldn't tolerate her.

Moreover...... Master and servant?

It turns out that in the eyes of the master, is she just a slave?

Pressed down by a lot of sadness and hatred, she said in a low voice: "The concubine really doesn't know what to do in order to win my sister's favor." ”

"Yesterday, a letter came from Suzhou, saying that my grandmother has been in poor health recently, so you might as well go back to Suzhou for a while, and it can be regarded as filial piety on my behalf."

She Lu listened in a daze, and only answered after a while: "Yes......"

She walked behind him in a bit of a distraction, and everything around seemed to become unreal.

Looking at the disappearing backs of the group, Xu Wanxi couldn't help but say: "I see that Aunt She's face is very bad, shouldn't she have some disease?" ”

"Don't worry about it."

Xie Qian urged with a smile: "Hurry up and eat your things." ”

"I didn't bother to pay attention to it, I just thought that she didn't have any diseases that were easy to pass on to others......"

Xie Qian laughed: "If that's the case, the first one should also be given to Master Zhu." ”

Xu Wanxi felt that this sounded like a conversation, but it seemed to be weird somewhere-

Too lazy to delve into the looming target in the words of the person in front of her, after Xu Wanxi was satisfied, she suddenly remembered something, and called the people around her: "By the way, you can go to the presiding abbot to ask for a peace charm to come back later-I will bring it to Niangniang when I enter the palace." ”

The mother in her mouth is naturally her family, the current queen's mother, Zhang Meishou.

Under the chatter of those ministers, Zhen Zhen finally moved, and she was still a little older than her.

If you do the math, you should be ready to give birth in two months at most.

I don't know if this doll, which has been stared at and looked forward to by countless courtiers before it was born, will it be a male doll or a female doll?

If you want her to say, the first one, both men and women are good.

Anyway, Zhen Zhen and His Majesty are very good-looking, whether it is a son or a daughter, no one has to worry.

It's not like this jagged one in her house-

Xu Wanxi glanced at the person in front of her and sighed worriedly in her heart.

Uncle Xie Shi's appearance is not bad, but after all, he is still a level behind her, and I don't know if this one in her belly can have the good fortune of her sister, and she also follows her mother's appearance.

Anyway, she tried her best, and if she wants to blame her father, she will blame her.

Xu Wanxi thought about it, and wanted to get the rose crisp again, but was preempted by the man.

“…… Not to say buy it for me! ”

The maple outside the pavilion is red like fire, the Bodhi leaves are green and yellow, although it is autumn, there is also a colorful color between heaven and earth.

……
