Chapter 131: The Xu Family (2)
Xu's "magic trick" is still to come!
"Yuan Ting, Yun Niang, Ming Niang," Xu called the three brothers and sisters one by one, and said with a loving face: "Over the years, my grandmother has been in Lin'an, and I haven't even seen your face. This is the first time we have ever met, and my grandmother always has to give me some gifts. ”
"But my grandmother didn't have anything good to handle. This is the broken silver that my grandmother has saved up over the years, and the three of you will take it and buy some fun and delicious food. ”
As he spoke, he took out an old purse, carefully took out the scattered silver in the purse, divided it into three parts, and stuffed it into the hands of the three Xie Yuanting brothers and sisters.
Everyone: "......"
Xie Mingxi, who had a thick face and a black heart, couldn't help but sigh secretly.
Ginger is still old and spicy!
Old Lady Xie was already so angry that she glared at Xu: "Shameful thing!" Don't hurry up and put away your broken silver. I've already prepared a welcome gift! ”
Xu Shi was aggrieved, and his eyes flashed with water: "I have a heart, how can I become a shame!" I don't have a lot of money in my hands, and the greeting gifts are a little meager, and the children will never be disgusted. ”
Xie Yuanting Xie Yunxi: "......"
Actually, we are very disgusted and surprised!
Xie Mingxi: "......"
Oh, don't stop! Go on!
……
The county lord of Yongning was also amused by Xu's poor and sour appearance, and deliberately glanced at Xie Jun, whose face was red and white: "Junma, I remember that you will send silver back to Lin'an every year." Why did the old lady only have such a little silver in her hand? ”
Xie Jun replied with a stiff face: "I don't know what's going on. ”
Old lady Xie didn't want to embarrass her son, so she had to take the initiative to take the black pot: "I will take all the money." However, there is never a shortage of household resources on weekdays. ”
He suddenly reprimanded Xu with a calm face: "In front of the children, restrain your poor and sour appearance." If you are so embarrassed and ugly, I will immediately have someone send you back to Lin'an. ”
Old Lady Xie sank his face, and Xie Ming reflexively lowered his head and remained silent.
Xie Lanxi's three sisters and brothers were also a little afraid, and they all lowered their heads.
On weekdays, the Xu family has long since stopped honestly. Today, he cried and wiped away his tears: "The old man is ugly and is hated by others." I know I'm not as beautiful as I was when I was younger. You spend money all day long to listen to dramas, buy rouge gouache for the maids around you, and you are reluctant to give me money to spend. ”
"If you want to get me back to Lin'an, it's impossible. After working hard for half my life, I finally have the opportunity to enter Beijing to enjoy happiness. If anyone sends me away, I will crash to death in front of the gate of the Xie family! ”
Old Lady Xie couldn't sit still anymore, Huo Ran stood up and pulled Xu's arm angrily: "Go, go!" You're going to hit it now! I'll collect your body for you! I thought a few words would scare me! ”
Xu is from a well-known background, and his temperament is spicy and difficult. Over the years, I have been forced to swallow my anger by silver, and now where can I endure it.
Xu sat on the ground and cried: "God doesn't open his eyes!" Take away this unconscionable thing! If it weren't for me, both of you and father would have starved to death. If I hadn't taken out the money, Ah Jun wouldn't have been able to pay the bundles. is the travel fee for the exam, and it is also my wife's coffin book. ”
"Now that the Xie family is soaring, they don't care about my life or death, and want to force me to death!"
"Oh my God! Hurry up and open your eyes. Just drop a few thunderbolts and kill this old immortal......"
Xie Ming was so anxious that he was sweating profusely, but he was born clumsy, and he didn't know how to persuade his mother.
Que was much more clever than Xie Ming, took out a handkerchief to cover his face, and cried with a whimper.
Xie Lanxi had reached the age of governor, and he couldn't hold his head up in shame by Xu's style. Xie Yuanzhou was a bachelor, pulling Xie Yuanwei to stand in front of Xu. A "come at me" posture!
Old Lady Xie's face was pale, and her temples jumped suddenly.
Xie Jun secretly gritted his teeth and couldn't help but be angry with Xie Mingxi.
It's all to blame on Xie Mingxi! Write a letter to them to come to the capital on their own initiative! On the first day of coming, I was restless.
Xie Mingxi's face was just right dazed and innocent.
To be honest, she really didn't expect Xu to have such means...... If she had known, she would have written to Lin'an on the first day of her rebirth!
……
No matter how annoyed Xie Jun was, it was useless to regret it.
People are coming! If you want to get back to Lin'an, it is obviously impossible at present, so you can only appease it first.
Those who achieve great things need to endure what ordinary people can't bear!
Xie Jun exhaled the turbidity in his chest deeply, forced out a guilty look, and stepped forward to personally help Xu: "It's all because the son is unfilial, and he has caused his mother to suffer so many grievances for no reason." In the future, the son will definitely have a good life and honor his mother! ”
A few good words and want to coax her up? No way!
Xu Shi insisted on lying on the ground and continued to cry: "At my age, I look shabby everywhere. Don't talk about others, even I despise myself......"
Xie Jun gritted his teeth and promised: "I will ask someone to take a hundred taels of silver and send it to my mother later." ”
One hundred taels of silver, is it called Hanako?
Xu Shi cried to Xie Jun: "Ah Jun, when you wanted to study, you knelt down crying and begged me, but I even took out the coffin book!" ”
The Yongning County Lord's patience was obviously running out, and he glanced at Xie Jun with a gloomy face: "Is there no silver in the treasury of the inner mansion?" Send five hundred taels to the old lady to settle down. ”
Don't let Xu "stop" again, don't blame her for turning her face and leaving.
Xie Jun changed his words painfully: "Since the county lord has spoken, then five hundred taels is good." ”
Five hundred taels!
This Yongning County Lord is much more generous than Xie Jun who slammed the door!
Xu's heart was overjoyed, wiped his tears numbly, stood up, and said again and again: "Ah Jun's thoughts, if I don't accept it, it will not be beautiful." So thank you in advance. ”
What is face?
As soon as there was a fuss, five hundred taels of silver were made. It's a great deal!
Old lady Xie's face was almost black to the bottom of the pot. In front of the county lord of Yongning, it was inconvenient to have an attack, so he endured it stubbornly: "Ah Jun, it's not too early, let the kitchen serve the dishes!" ”
Xie Jun quickly opened his mouth in response.
A farce has finally come to an end.
……
There were two seats at the family dinner.
One seat for men and one seat for women.
Without the noisy Xu, the banquet was much quieter. Xie Ming is gentle by nature and is not good at speaking. After sitting down, he didn't say a word.
Xie Jun didn't have a good impression of this bloodless brother, and he didn't have much disgust, so he greeted him casually and accompanied Mrs. Xie to talk.
Xie Yuanzhou was bold, sitting next to Xie Yuanting and asking, "Big brother, which academy are you studying?" ”
Xie Yuanting raised his head slightly, and there was a hint of arrogance in his words: "New Confucian Academy." Then, he proudly added: "One of the six major academies in Beijing." ”
Xie Yuanzhou's eyes sparkled, and he asked with great interest: "Which six academies?" What is the ranking of the New Confucian Academy? ”
Xie Yuanting: "......"
