Chapter 137: The Best in the Sect
Remember [ .] in one second, wonderful free reading without pop-ups!
The basket then understood.
Miss Fang Cai was digging a pit for Xie Muyuan and Chen Yuanyuan to jump, but Xie Muyuan was still full of joy when he left, thinking that he wanted to use Miss to either climb the high branches of Huai'an Palace, or retreat to second, and the Yasukuni Mansion was not bad...... The wishful thinking is jingling, but I don't know if I will regret it in the future!
Miss's trick is really ruthless!
The basket trotted and went out the door quickly.
Pei Xie Tang was originally worried that these people would twist into a rope and come up with some damage, but it turned out to be just like this, she was in a good mood, she hummed a song and took a cold shower, and after changing her clothes, she saw Xie Yijiang before.
Dad sent Steward Dong last night to say that today, the marriage will definitely flow out, and these relatives in the family have to come to congratulate and let her prepare. She instructed Wu'er to do it early in the morning, bought some used melon seeds and fruit cakes, and sent them to the big kitchen to prepare. If someone from the Xie family came, they wouldn't be in a hurry.
She and Chen Yuanyuan have already torn their faces, and Chen Yuanyuan has nothing to say after coming back, so she will go back to the house to rest first.
At this time, Xie Yijiang generally just got out of the morning court, changed his clothes and handled official business in the study. Pei Xie Tang went straight to the study, and just sat down, and before he could say a few words, he heard Steward Dong come to say: "Master, the old lady in the clan heard that the third lady was married by His Majesty and wanted to be the princess of Huai'an, he was overjoyed, and brought a large family to congratulate him." ”
"Invite them to the main hall!" After Xie Yijiang instructed Steward Dong, he turned his head and said to Pei Xie Tang: "I will see the old lady in a while, you have to be respectful to him." ”
Pei Xie Tang responded: "Yes." ”
However, as soon as she lowered her head, she couldn't hide the disdain in her eyes.
The basket is a chatterbox, known from the first day she woke up, from the girl's mouth. Barry, anyone can hear me. Early this morning, when she told Wu'er to go shopping, the basket was beside her for most of the day.
"Miss, you are kind to these elders in the clan, but these people are disrespectful to the elderly, and it is not worth our Xie family to waste a grain of rice for them! In the past, when Miss was still sick, no one in the clan came to see Miss and never said it, but always blew the wind in the old man's ear, saying that Miss's illness came suddenly, and it must have been because she had done something bad, which led to God's warning and punishment, and asked the master to expel Miss from the Xie family, otherwise, if God was angry in the future, it would affect a large family. ”
"At that time, Miss couldn't walk, if she was really driven out, her life would be ruined, maybe now Miss and the slave maid are a dry bone in the barren mountains and mountains, and they don't know if they are eaten by wild wolves!"
"And the Great Lady. In the past, when the eldest lady was sick, these people always shouted that there was something so precious about a woman's body, and if she was sick, she had to take medicine, and a pair of medicine would cost a few taels of silver. They asked the lord not to heal the eldest lady, and every time he came back from the medicine, he always tried to get it back and return the money. Before the eldest lady could breathe, she forced the eldest lady to say that there were several brothers in the clan who had good business talents, and asked the eldest lady to hand over the shop to them to help take care of it! ”
"Of course the eldest lady refused, saying that she would leave all these things to the young lady, but the old lady was not happy, saying that she would not be allowed to call the shots, if it wasn't for the old man's insistence on obeying the eldest lady, the young lady would have nothing now!"
"These people are not worthy of being our Xie family at all! Over the years, I have never seen them give us anything to the Xie family, but they have taken things from our house everywhere! ”
"Miss, this time the people in the clan came to congratulate, you must be careful, don't promise them anything!"
Pei Xie Tang listened to this, and couldn't help but sigh very much, with such relatives, no wonder Xie Chengyin's illness couldn't be cured. persuading other people's parents to expel their seriously ill daughters, what kind of good thing can these Xie family members be?
It's just that Xie Yijiang is too attached to family affection, and even the Fan family who made a big mistake can forgive again and again, not to mention these clansmen who always care about the cold and ask for warmth!
However, the current Pei Xie Tang is not the original Xie Chengyin, he wants to pit her, these are dreams!
She is preparing enthusiastically today, just to meet the relatives of these cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods for a while, so that these people can know that they want to pinch her Xie Chengyin in the next life!
Following Xie Yijiang's footsteps, Pei Xie Tang was laughing all the way, and when he arrived at the main hall, listening to the noise coming from the main hall, this smile immediately reached the bottom of his eyes.
"Oops, Yijiang, congratulations!"
"Big brother, you are really blessed, I said that Cheng Yin is a rich and noble child, you see, I am not wrong, I became a princess in a blink of an eye!"
"Yijiang, your daughter is good, I heard that His Majesty gave marriage, let's take a look. Well, that's good! ”
Xie Yijiang entered the door all the way, and the people standing on both sides kept greeting him, Xie Yijiang smiled and returned the salute one by one: "Where, thank you!" ”
There are dozens of clansmen in the Xie family, and there are only a dozen or so stools in this main hall, so naturally they can't sit down, only some elders sit on the chairs, and when they see Xie Yijiang coming, some stand up, and some are still sitting upright, they are all elders of the grandfather's generation. On the main seat of the main hall, there is an old man with a full head of gorgeous hair, who is old but in good spirits, holding a dragon's head cane in his hand, his hands stacked on the head of the cane are clean and tidy, and the thumb of his left hand is covered with a green wrench.
Xie Yijiang stepped forward quickly and bowed his hand: "I've seen the old lady." Old lady, why did you come in person? ”
"Well, the Xie family has a princess, of course I want to congratulate you. Our Xie family is also considered to be popular. Old lady Xie bowed her head, raised her hand to stroke her beard, and looked at Pei Xie Tang behind Xie Yijiang very happily: "In a blink of an eye, the three girls are so old." It's sixteen this year, right? ”
"I've seen the old ancestor!" Pei Xie Tang walked out slowly, bowed dignifiedly, raised his head and smiled softly, revealing the pear vortex on his cheeks: "Back to the ancestors, Chengyin will be nineteen this year, and in a few months, he will be twenty years old." The old lady doesn't come to our Xie house often, so I'm afraid she doesn't recognize me. ”
When Old Lady Xie heard this, she paused with her bearded hand and coughed a little embarrassed.
Xie Yijiang glanced at Pei Xie Tang meaningfully.
Pei Xie Tang smiled softly. Soft, with an innocent appearance, seeing Old Lady Xie coughing, he immediately showed a little concern: "Is the old ancestor unwell?" Come! ”
The basket stepped forward, and Xie Chengyin ordered: "The old ancestor has a bad cough, and it is not suitable to drink tea, so I changed it for the old ancestor." ”
"Yes." With a smile in his eyes, he lowered his head and respectfully took the tea in front of Old Lady Xie.
Old lady Xie hurriedly stopped: "No need to change it, it's just a little cough, it's no big deal." ”
After their group came, the slave maid knew that they were all members of the Xie family, and the tea served to them was the spring tea that had just been served this year. The annual output of this tea is not high, the reason why the Xie family has it is because of the blessing of the third lady, and the prince specially gave Xie Chengyin what was rewarded to him in the palace. Xie Chengyin doesn't like to drink tea, and knows that Xie Yijiang likes it, so he uses it to be filial to Xie Yijiang and please his father.
The Xie family is not a big family, and the biggest official in the clan is the old lady herself.
When he was the most prosperous in those years, he used to be the head of the household department of the previous dynasty, because of the second grade of the official residence, he received a lot of rewards, and he tasted good things, and this tea knew that it was not ordinary as soon as he entered it.
Since he resigned from office at old age, the Xie family has had several officials, who are not as old as him, and there are naturally not many good things that can be filial to him, this kind of good tea has not been touched for several years, how can he be willing to be taken away by the basket like this?
He still has other plans in his heart, this tea has always been at hand, and when he leaves later, he can justifiably hint that Xie Yijiang will send him, if there is no topic, it is not good to ask Xie Yijiang for it, so as not to be told by others, he is an elder who always thinks about the things of the junior.
Old lady Xie can't afford to lose this person!
The basket didn't listen to him at all, and walked down quickly with the tea, and after a while, he changed a cup of cool hot water for him.
Xie Chengyin's smile revealed twelve points of care: "Ancestors, doctors often say that drinking more white water is beneficial. You cough so badly that it will be much more comfortable to drink some plain water. ”
She said very satisfactorily, Mrs. Xie couldn't find anything wrong for a while, and she was secretly angry in her heart, but she had to praise her: "Chengyin is really filial and sensible, and he thinks thoughtfully." No wonder the prince prefers to marry his own princess. Yijiang, is the wedding date set? ”
"Not yet." Xie Yijiang replied respectfully.
Old Lady Xie's face sank, and the dragon head staff in his hand poked the ground several times: "Since Your Majesty has given marriage, this matter must be hurried and delayed!" ”
"This ...... Master, are you confused? The prince wants to marry the concubine, and the days have to be seen by Qin Tianjian, where is the eldest brother who has the final say? A young man beside the old lady quickly replied.
This person is about thirty-five or sixteen, standing next to Old Lady Xie, obviously a direct line of Old Lady Xie's lineage, and he is very fond of Old Lady Xie before taking him around.
When the basket saw him speak, he immediately whispered a reminder in Pei Xie Tang's ear: "Miss, this is the grandson of the old lady's big house, named Xie Yunmao." He began to take the meritorious examination at the age of eighteen, and now he has taken the examination six times, and he has not yet been lifted, and now he is in charge of the business of the Xie family's big house, and he is a businessman. ”
Pei Xie Tang nodded secretly and kept it in his heart.
Old lady Xie was reminded by Xie Yunmao, oh, didn't say anything, and motioned to Xie Yunmao with his eyes.
Xie Yunmao asked with a smile: "The eldest brother has three daughters under his knees, Yiyi has an accident, as well as Feifei and Chengyin, now Chengyin has a good marriage, and the eldest brother is just around the corner." I really envy my big brother. Big brother, I'm messing around all day now, it's not a thing, I'm afraid it's impossible to rely on my own ability to get in, now the eldest brother has climbed into a relationship with the prince, that is, with the royal family, Yun Mao has something to ask the eldest brother to help, I don't know if the eldest brother is willing to make a convenience? ”
Before the words fell, Xie Yijiang's face had changed.
