Chapter 52: Ethnology Debate 11 (Xie Wenhui's Calculations)
Xie Yuanniang thought of her previous arrangement, this official seal was lost too coincidentally, is that the arrangement she made herself, so she doesn't have to do it anymore?
This matter has to start from a case of selling officials after the spring of the previous life, it turns out that the Beijing officials are poor, and every time they have to stay up until the spring of the year, the protΓ©gΓ© receives the meeting gift or those who do not win the spring festival, so they privately drag people to use the official seal to make a certificate for their own seal, with this identity, even if they do not win the jinshi, you can donate an official by spending some money, for officials, this is to collect some seal money.
In private, everyone understands in their hearts that if they open one eye and close one eye, no one will say anything.
In short, the spring festival is a day that everyone is looking forward to, and it is also a day that some officials are looking forward to.
It's just that in the previous life, Zongren's Mansion had a big event because of the collection of printing and settling money, and it was okay to collect and seal money, and he also took a fancy to the daughter of the lifter, and carried it to the house as a concubine, not to mention, but when the person took office in the place, he found that the position on the appointment document had already been there, and the daughter was a concubine, and the donated official was also a fake, and the person went back to Jinling at that time to make a big fuss, and the matter was very big, and finally it went to the court, and many officials in Zongren Mansion were implicated, among which Xie's father could be saved, or Xie Yuanniang was sent by his mother to Jiangnan to ask for his grandfather, My grandfather was angry and didn't help, and it was my uncle who came forward to keep the official position of Xie's father's five products.
In the previous life, Xie Yuanniang was also married, and after hearing Gu Tingzhi once mention the brother of the favorite concubine of the county king's mansion, she had a look of disdain, and only then did she know that it was Song Ji who accepted the daughter of the person as a concubine and sold a fake official.
When she came back from rebirth, she didn't want her father to encounter this again, and she didn't want to give up her face and make her uncle embarrassed between her grandfather and mother, Xie Yuanniang asked Jiang Cai to arrest Song Ji, without Song Ji, Zongren Mansion would naturally not have such a thing as in the previous life.
When she thought about this, she was just a momentary shock, and then she heard her mother ask, "You are still pretending to be stupid there, if you take it out quickly, you usually don't know the importance of it, how can you play with the official seal." β
Xie Yuanniang was annoyed, "Mother, you keep saying that I took the official seal, but there are witnesses?" β
Her voice was raised, and she questioned directly, Kong Shi was also startled, these days she has been used to the little daughter is not as willful as before, suddenly saw the little daughter noisy again, to a little stunned, and then annoyed, "Yuan Niang, what is your attitude?" β
"Alright." Father Xie interrupted his wife on the side, "Yuan Niang is right, I called their sisters over today, just to ask, and no one testified that they took it." β
Kong Shi was unhappy that her husband said this, "You just spoil her, see what it looks like, and if you spoil her, I think it's difficult to talk about family affairs, so who dares to have such a daughter-in-law against the elders?" β
Father Xie's brows tightened, "Jirou." β
In front of his daughter, calling the name of Kong's son can be regarded as a precursor to Xie's father's anger.
Kong pursed his lips, "You can pet it, I don't care." β
He twisted to the side and sat there sulking alone.
Seeing that his wife was no longer talking, Father Xie looked at the two daughters, smiled at the younger daughter comfortingly, and let the two sit down again, before asking, "I heard Brother Wang say that Sister Hui came to the book to borrow books a while ago?" β
Xie Wenhui knelt on the ground, "The official seal is that my daughter lost it, and I always wanted to tell my father, but I was worried about being scolded by my father, so I didn't tell my father for a long time." β
Suddenly, Kong also forgot to be angry, "Sister Hui." β
Obviously, Kong felt that the eldest daughter was helping the younger daughter take responsibility, and her eyes were staring at the younger daughter, with sharpness, Xie Yuanniang stared at the ground lightly, directly ignoring the gaze of her mother.
Xie Yuanniang didn't miss the mother-daughter relationship, but she didn't want her father to be difficult in the middle, and she was more curious about her sister taking her father's official seal.
Xie Wenhui said, "My daughter came to the study to borrow books that day, and when she saw the official seal on the table, she felt that the seal was twisted and carved specially, so she took it back to the Moon Tower and wanted to think about it carefully, so she didn't want to fall into the pool in the front yard of the Moon Tower on the road, and people didn't catch it for a few days." β
"I see." The gloomy look on Father Xie's face receded, "You get up." β
"The daughter knows that she is wrong, please punish her father." Xie Wenhui did not get up.
Father Xie said, "You are also unintentional, how can your father punish you." Get up, and don't kneel down without moving. β
Then he explained, "The official seal is not as good as the private seal, and I am afraid that it will be stolen by someone with a heart, so I will mobilize the public to call someone to investigate." You have always been serious, this is also your unintentional move, don't be so careless in the future, can you remember? β
Xie Wenhui answered softly, then stood up and stepped aside to sit down.
The hand under her sleeve also clenched a few words, and now everyone can say that she is wrong, but when that happens, her father will thank her, and everyone will thank her.
"Mother, now that my sister has admitted it herself, my mother won't doubt me anymore, right?" Xie Yuanniang is not the master who suffers from losses, she sneered, no matter how ugly her mother's face was, she looked at Father Xie with a smile, "The official seal is lost, I'm afraid my father won't be able to do it when he works, right?" It will take some time to return to the top, and then the new official seal will be engraved by the official seal. β
Father Xie nodded, "Zongren Mansion is fine on weekdays, and there is not much time to use the official seal, so this matter will not delay anything." β
Originally, it was also a colleague who wanted to do the matter of printing money, so he begged Xie's father, Xie Yuanniang knew the inside story, and the question just now was just to remind his father to put this matter on the bright side, so that his colleagues would not feel that Xie's father was prevaricating when he knew.
Father Xie didn't think much about it, until his daughter's words woke him up, and his colleagues didn't want to nod their heads, but now it's a good excuse, that is, the eldest daughter took the official seal privately, he thought it was a good thing, but these things were not good to tell his daughters, so he pressed it in his heart.
After coming out of the study, Father Xie was afraid that his little daughter would feel uncomfortable, so he slowed down his pace and talked to his little daughter in the back, it was nothing more than that your mother was too worried about something, so she said something like that in a hurry, so Xie Yuanniang's ears had to hear that the cocoon was coming, and her face responded, and she didn't say what she thought in her heart.
Earlier, Kong was also asking her eldest daughter, "Sister Hui, you have always been steady, how can you do such a thing?" Did Yuan Niang do it, and you helped her bear the charge? β
Until this time, Kong didn't believe that the eldest daughter did it.
How could Xie Wenhui let Xie Yuanniang receive such a good thing, "Mother, I did this thing, it has nothing to do with my sister, she doesn't know at all." β
When the incident in Zongrenfu came out, there was no father inside, and everyone would naturally thank her at that time.
