"Madam, the fifth lady is sharp-toothed, and she is clearly bullying the concubine and our big house." Aunt Mei bit a sentence to death, that is, Xie Qing bullied the big house.

Xie Qing smiled faintly: "Aunt Mei, let's talk to my uncle." ”

Suddenly, Li's face sank, and he glanced at Aunt Mei, this slut is used to blowing pillow wind on weekdays, so he must use this soft and weak posture.

Aunt Mei's face turned blue with anger, and she hurriedly explained to the Li family, "Madam, don't fall for her, the concubine has always respected Madame." ”

"Speaking of which, this matter is also caused by the fourth sister wanting to buy jewelry, but it is just a piece of jewelry, since the fourth sister has already bought it, it is also in line with the eldest aunt of the ward, and the eldest aunt is not a stingy person, and she will not treat the fourth sister badly, as a result, Aunt Mei, you made such a fight, are you hinting at something?"

Aunt Mei was so girly that she almost didn't bite a mouthful of silver teeth, "Fifth Miss, you are sowing discord." ”

Xie Qing's eyebrows were slightly raised, and Aunt Mei understood the meaning in her eyes, I was just sowing discord.

"It's also Qing'er who is too talkative, and I really shouldn't talk about the big house, Qing'er apologized to the eldest aunt, and please don't take it to heart." Xie Qing respectfully saluted the Li family, and said with a light smile, "Auntie, Qing'er just wants to make a joke with the fourth sister, it's all Qing'er's nonsense, forget about it, this IOU is not needed, just think that Qing'er bought a gift for the fourth sister." ”

When Xie Qing spoke, he took out a note from his sleeve, and deliberately unfolded it for Li and Aunt Mei to look at, confirm it, and then tear it up.

Shredded pieces of paper flew like snow, and Li Shipi said with a smile: "How can Qing'er, you, who are a younger sister, give gifts to the fourth sister, Bihe, go and take a hundred taels of silver from the public to the fifth lady." ”

If this money is really not returned, the Li family will definitely have a reputation for slamming the door. It's just a hundred taels of silver, Li won't be in pain, what really makes her feel is that this silver is spent on Xie Hui.

Xie Qing smiled sweetly: "Since this is the case, then thank you for your compassion, Qing'er went to see her mother first, as for Aunt Mei, she is a person under the eldest aunt, and please let the eldest aunt decide for herself, Qing'er has no opinion." After curtsimming to the Li family, Xie Qing turned around and went back to the room.

"Madam, the concubine is ......" Aunt Mei wanted to say something, but she was glared at by the Li family.

"Take Aunt Mei back." The Li family commanded in a cold voice, Xie Qing is right, even if Aunt Mei is the concubine of the Hou Ye, her immediate boss is also the Li family......

Xie Qing did what he said, but he only asked the Li family how he dealt with Aunt Mei, and only took care of the Lin family with peace of mind. The wound on Lin's face is not deep, but it is a wound on the face, and it can't leave a scar.

"Qing'er, my mother is fine, her face has already scabbed." Lin comforted his daughter.

Xie Qing said with a smile: "After all, this is a wound on the face, and you have to wait until it is completely healed to feel at ease, otherwise it will not be good to leave a scar." In fact, Xie Qing is sure that Lin's face will be restored to its original state, but after all, she is a mother-in-law, and her wound is not completely healed, and she is always uneasy in her heart.

Lin sighed lightly: "Your father is gone, and it doesn't matter if I have a scar on my face." "Women are those who please themselves, and if there is no one to please, what is the use of being good-looking.

Xie Qing's heart hurt, and the Lin family must have been stimulated by Aunt Mei's widow. Second Master Xie went early, and the Lin family was widowed in less than two years, how could he not be sad.

"Mother, Dad is watching from the sky, if you are injured, Dad will be distressed. What's more, the daughter is still by her mother's side, this matter is all because of her daughter, if the mother has a scar, the daughter will see her every day, and she will blame herself every day. ”

As soon as Xie Qing said this, how could the Lin family say that he didn't care about this face, "Okay, okay, then listen to Qing'er, my mother's face will definitely be good." ”

Lin took Xie Qing in his arms, hugged her like when he was a child, and whispered: "Mother's Qing'er should be happy, don't blame yourself, it's all Aunt Mei's trouble, I sometimes pity her in the past, it's not easy to be a concubine, but now it seems that those poor people have been fed to the dogs." ”

Lin recalled the scene when Aunt Mei pounced, her long nails scratched her face, if she hadn't blocked Xie Qing at that time, it would have been Xie Qing who was injured. Looking at his daughter's beautiful face, if this is broken, who will marry her in the future, Lin couldn't help but tremble.

"Mother, what's wrong with you? Cold? Xie Qing felt the trembling of her body, and hurriedly ordered, "Caixia, go and close the window." ”

Lin held her daughter's hand tightly: "Qing'er, my mother is fine, I just think about it and I'm a little scared, what if Aunt Mei hurts you." ”

Xie Qingwan smiled: "Mother, my daughter will be fine, you have to remember that no one will be able to hurt her daughter from now on." "She is a man who has crept up from hell, and whoever dares to hurt her, she will pay for her blood.

"How did your aunt deal with Aunt Mei, do you blame you?" Lin asked.

How did the Li family deal with Aunt Mei, Xie Qing really didn't pay attention, turned her head to look at Lingzhi, she didn't know, Lingzhi must be clear to inquire about this bag.

Lingzhi replied with a smile: "The eldest lady punished Aunt Mei for copying scriptures, and the fourth lady was also punished to kneel in the ancestral hall. ”

Xie Qing raised his eyebrows slightly: "Didn't the eldest uncle say anything?" ”

"I don't know, but I heard that Master Hou has been very busy these days, and he hasn't even gone to the backyard much." Lingzhi replied.

"That's right, grandmother's birthday banquet is coming, and my uncle must be busy." Xie Qing nodded and said.

Lin also smiled and said: "That's fine, even if this matter is in the past, as long as it doesn't implicate us." "Lin's idea is very simple, as long as Xie Qing is not involved, their mother and daughter are safe.

Xie Qing smiled lightly: "What my mother said is true, but the eldest sister is a kind-hearted person, and she actually pleaded for the fourth sister." ”

"Sister Ru is a good one, and everyone in the Hou Mansion praised her for her generous manners and outstanding virtues." Lin said with a smile, "But in my mother's heart, Qing'er is the best girl." ”

When Xie Qing heard this, she said with a smile: "Mother, you saw Qing'er directly break Aunt Mei's hand, do you still think Qing'er is the best girl?" ”

Lin touched his daughter's face, and said with a smile: "Qing'er, what kind of character do you have, how can you not know for your mother, it is also Aunt Mei who has gone too far, Qing'er, you are your mother's daughter, and your mother will not say that you are not good." ”

Xie Qing's eyebrows were crooked, and she called sweetly: "Mother, my mother is also the best mother." Xie Qing was still a little scared in her heart, she was afraid that she would be too ruthless and scare the Lin family, and the Lin family would have a disgrace in her heart, but she didn't expect the Lin family to be even better than she imagined.

"Qing'er, your grandmother's birthday banquet is coming, are you ready for the birthday gift? This is your grandmother's 70th birthday, but you can't be sloppy. Lin suddenly remembered this, she knew that Xie Qing had an idea, but she still couldn't help but ask.

Xie Qing nodded: "Mother, don't worry, I bought a white jade Guanyin, which is very suitable for grandmother." ”

Lin said with a smile: "The old lady likes to eat and worship the Buddha, which is good." ”

In the blink of an eye, Mrs. Xie's birthday banquet was getting closer and closer, and Third Master Xie also led his wife and children back to celebrate the old lady's birthday. When Xie Qing arrived in Mrs. Xie's courtyard, Third Master Xie also arrived.

"Say hello to the old lady." Third Master Xie led his wife and children to kneel down and salute Mrs. Xie with a respectful attitude.

Third Master Xie is a concubine, and his biological mother used to be Mrs. Xie's dowry maid who opened her face as a concubine. After the old marquis and the old aunt died one after another, Xie Sanye happened to be sent to another country as the prefect, Xie Sanye simply took his wife and children to take office, first, it was a long way, and secondly, his biological father and mother died, and Xie Sanye did not want to come back often. It's just that this time is Mrs. Xie's seventieth birthday after all, in the end, she is the mother-in-law, the nominal mother, if she doesn't come back, I'm afraid that she will be criticized.

Old Madam Xie looked at the concubine kneeling below, the old marquis and the old aunt have both died, and the three rooms have long been separated, and it is not as-for-tat as it was back then, so she called him up immediately, "Get up, third child, how have you been outside all these years?" ”

Xie Sanye replied: "Thanks to the old lady's concern, everything is fine with me." ”

Old Madam Xie nodded, and said with a smile: "That's good, since you're back, find time to go to your father's and aunt's graves to put incense." ”

Xie Sanye's expression was slightly pale, and it was certain that he would go to his parents' grave to offer incense, but now it was Mrs. Xie, the grandmother, who said it first, and he couldn't believe his ears. Although Mrs. Xie didn't beat and scold her like those mothers in other mansions when she was a child, she didn't treat him very well, she just barely maintained the superficial harmony, why did Mrs. Xie become amiable this time?

"Yes, I will take my wife and children to incense tomorrow."

Xie Qing's eyes flashed slightly, the surprise in Xie Sanye's eyes she saw clearly, Old Madam Xie is not bad, but she is an eccentric and short-sighted person, would she be so good to Xie Sanye for no reason? Xie Qing didn't believe it.

"You are a good one, in the blink of an eye, the deceased people have passed away for many years, and the living people should be put down, you are a member of the Xie family, you have been an official outside for so many years, if the opportunity is right, go back to Beijing, it is not good to leave your hometown." Old Madam Xie said faintly.

When Xie Sanye said this, his eyes couldn't help but turn red. He has been in office for so many years, going thousands of miles away, and he doesn't come back during the New Year's holidays, just to avoid Mrs. Xie, his mother-in-law didn't want to see him before, and it was inconvenient for him to go up. Now Mrs. Xie said this, but there is a feeling of seeing through the grievances of the world.

"What my mother said is that this time I came back to celebrate my mother's birthday, and secondly, I also went back to Beijing to report on my work, if Your Majesty is interested, maybe I can go back to the capital." Xie Sanye was so moved that even his title changed, and he directly changed from an old lady to a mother.
