Chapter 14: Family Affairs (1)

Mo Li put down her hand and raised her eyes to look over again, Old Lady Xie was already smiling, Yan also persuaded both sides to drink, Mrs. Yang stiffened her face and laughed, but her hand almost knocked over the wine glass, while Miss Xie Si was pale and got up and left the seat after a while.

Almost none of the guests in the garden noticed what was going on, and when the musicians' tune sounded again, everything looked the same as before.

After a short time, the subordinates of Xie Mansion sent tooth cards, chessboards and other things to help the fun. Xie Tianyun was already a little bored there, and his location was far away from Mo Xue, so it was inconvenient to tease the little girl, and he was too lazy to take care of his little sister, so after staying for a while, he got up and ran to the front to find Xie Gexian and the others. Mrs. Xie didn't even notice that her favorite grandson had sneaked away. And Wei Shi has always doted on himself, the only lifeline, and he couldn't bear to be more controlled, so he asked the maid to follow Brother Yun carefully, and said a few words in his mouth, so he didn't pay much attention to Mrs. Xie's side.

After a few songs, the sun was getting hotter, and although the shade of the trees in the garden was thick, it could not block the summer sun, just as the seats in the pavilion were set up. After the maid came over to say something, Mrs. Xie glanced at Yan, and Yan got up and beckoned the guests to sit in the pavilion and watch the flowers.

And Mrs. Xie took this opportunity to say that her back was a little sore, so she had to go back to the house and lie down and let the maid rub it. There was nothing around the female guests who didn't understand, and besides, Mrs. Xie's face was really not very good, so they all got up and cared a few words. Mrs. Xie hurriedly smiled and said, "I'm just old, and my waist is not very good, so you all go to the garden to have fun, I'm rude first." ”

The guests shook their heads busily, so after being polite to each other, Mrs. Xie took the maid's hand and left. Mo Li could see it clearly, when the maid reached out to help the old lady Xie, the old lady's hand trembled faintly. When Yan saw this, he said that the two younger siblings would help greet the guests, and she would come back with the old lady to serve them. Wei was so preoccupied with his son that he didn't want to follow the old lady back to the house to serve, so he immediately nodded in response. Tian had already inquired about the female guests who came over today, and several of them had secret recipes for having children, so she waited for a while to ask for advice, so Yan's request happened to be in her arms.

Old Mrs. Xie turned around and walked two steps, but suddenly remembered Mrs. Mo, and hurriedly turned around and walked over to Mo Li and said: "I really can't stand the old sister today, I originally wanted to catch up with the old sister, but I may have drunk two more glasses just now, and suddenly I felt a headache and a sore waist, and I really couldn't lift my spirits." Today, the old sister is strolling around in my garden, forgive me for not being able to accompany me, I will send a sedan chair to invite you another day, let's talk about it. ”

"Tell me these kind words, you are rich and noble, and your body is no rougher than me, and besides, you are older now, so you really need to pay more attention." Old Mrs. Mo waved her hand and smiled, and then said, "I came here today to recognize the door, and I will come to the door again when I am free, and I don't want to mention what sedan chair is not sedan chair, shame my old face." ”

Old Mrs. Xie smiled, glanced at Mo Li again, and then at Mo Xue, with a faint hint of complexity in her eyes. Yan hurriedly came over and grabbed Mrs. Xie's arm and said, "Daughter-in-law help you go back." ”

Mrs. Xie glanced at her, said, "Mei Xiang, come and help me," and then turned around and left.

……

"Go and call the four girls to me." As soon as she entered the house, before she could sit down, Mrs. Xie gave an order with a cold face.

"I've already asked the maid to call over, I'll come over right away." Yan's face was not good, he was careful, he was suppressing his anger, and he was thinking about what to say for a while, but his head hurt when he thought about it, and his chest was also blocked. She is a thousand calculations, how can she not calculate that the jade pendant is in the hands of the sister of the Changchun Academy, the four girls actually hide it from her, and the Yang family dares to ...... If it weren't for the fact that there were many guests today, she was afraid that if something went wrong, she would have called Mrs. Yang over just now.

Only then did Mrs. Xie be helped to sit down on the couch, and the maid outside came in to report: The fourth girl is here.

Yan glanced at Mrs. Xie carefully, then calmed her face, pursed her lips, went out to let the maids inside and outside go out, and ordered the two big maids to look at the door, and then personally led the pale Xie Yueniang in.

Xie Yueniang, the fourth girl of Xie Mansion, is a concubine, but she has been under the name of Yan a few years ago. Originally, the Yan family didn't like this concubine, until the past two years, she saw that this child was getting more and more out of place, but her brain was not very long, and she was easier to manipulate left and right, plus her status in Xie Mansion was faintly threatened by Wei's now, and her husband's official road was not smoother than that of the third uncle. So after thinking about it a few times, she began to slowly get close to Xie Yueniang, planning to use Xie Yueniang to pull some potential help for her husband and consolidate her position in Xie Mansion. But she never thought that Xie Yueniang would have no brains to do this, and she still had the courage to do such a private thing behind her back!

"Fourth girl, did you keep the pair of jade pendants I gave you before?" After Xie Yueniang came in, Old Lady Xie stared at her for a while before slowly speaking, and her tone sounded obviously suppressing anger. Everyone in Xie Mansion knows that although Mrs. Xie always looks smiling on weekdays, and most of the time she is easier to talk, if she really gets angry, even if her four sons kneel in front of her, they don't have to worry about it.

Since Xie Yueniang was pulled in by the Yan family, her face was bloodless, and her body trembled like sifting chaff, and now when she heard Mrs. Xie's question, she couldn't support it anymore, and suddenly knelt down in front of Mrs. Xie and cried.

Yan was so angry, but he couldn't make it loud, so he gritted his teeth and scolded in his throat: "What are you crying about at this time, don't you hurry back to the old lady, is the jade pendant there!" ”

"Send it, give it to Yang Gongzi......" Xie Yueniang sobbed and said a few words, then covered her face and knelt there and cried, "I, I don't want him to give the jade pendant to ...... My wife obviously told me that Mr. Yang values me very much, and the family affairs have been decided with Mrs. Yang, so I am waiting for the Yang family to be hired, and I ......"

"You-" Yan almost fainted in anger, this Xie Yueniang is indeed at the mercy of a wooden head on weekdays, but at the critical moment, she also showed a tendon temperament, she hasn't figured out how to find a good reason for herself in front of the old lady to fool her, this is good, this dead girl will sell her all in one sentence!

"You're really messing around!" Old Mrs. Xie is old and refined, Xie Yueniang said this, she guessed a seven, seven, eighty, eight or eight in her heart, so she immediately looked at Yan with an angry face, "You hurry up and give me 1510 authentic, I just heard about it, but you interact with those people every day, don't you know that the Yang family has already made an in-law with the Mo family, what kind of joke do you want to make for the Xie family!" You still don't think the second child is troublesome enough, right? ”

"Old lady, I'm not-" This happened so that she was really caught off guard, Yan couldn't help but be a little flustered, shook her lips, and couldn't help stammering, "Yes, it was Mrs. Yang who said earlier, saying that she had withdrawn, and then she fell in love with the four girls in our family, just, just ......"

Old Madam Xie snorted coldly: "You go and ask someone to invite Mrs. Yang to me now, I will ask in person." ”
