Chapter 242 Single-minded maintenance
Only then did she pick up the news she got and tell Mrs. An clearly, so as not to let the old man think too much, she even skipped a few points.
At the end, the old lady finally accurately grasped the key point in Li Li's words: "Who is that blind person?" For so many years, no one even the children of the royal family dared to make trouble in the National Temple. ”
Who is so ignorant of life and death?
"I heard that it's the little marquis of the Xie family." Li Li said.
The Xie family is noble, it is precisely because it is too clear, the whole family is as light as water without any taste, except for the name of the Hou Ye's Mansion and the annual enjoyment of the due wealth, they do not have any real power in their hands.
An Xin thought for a while: "Xie Xiaohou of the Hou Mansion's Hou Ye is still young, and he is only one year older than Qin Qing, and the boys are generally late in maturity, so they are a little bolder. ”
If Xie Yi is also reasonable, the child has been pampered at home since he was a child, except for a few families who have dealings with the Xie Mansion who know that the child has a big temper, outsiders have never seen it much.
It is precisely because of this that he doesn't know that there is a person outside the heavens, and he always takes himself as the center, thinking that he is the boss of the family and the boss outside.
Mrs. An shook her head: "Being young is not an excuse, if you do something wrong, you should admit punishment, Zeqing is right, people who bully others will one day be bullied by others, if the Xie family is dissatisfied, just let them come to me, an old lady!" ”
In order to protect her grandson, the old lady really doesn't want to lose face, according to her grade, where can the people of the Xie family see if they want to?
"Yes, yes, if their Xie family is unclear, I must ask my mother to go out of the mountain and teach them a good lesson." Li Li couldn't cry or laugh, but he didn't dare to disobey the old lady's kindness, you must know that the older her mother is, the younger her heart will be.
It's just that this idea of theirs is probably going to come to naught, and the person who is now in charge of the Xie family is not Xie Xiaohou, but Mrs. Xie.
From the fact that Old Lady Xie has been able to raise her grandson alone for so many years, and can manage a Hou Ye's Mansion in an orderly manner, and no one dares to disobey her, it is enough to see that the old lady is also a powerful character.
And now I just don't know if Mrs. Xie is more rational or loves her little grandson more.
At the same time, in the Mansion of Marquis Xie, after Mrs. Xie learned about the incident caused by her little grandson, she couldn't help but be angry, and scolded loudly: "How do you slaves take care of your master!" ”
Xie Yi trembled, sitting aside and not daring to speak, he hadn't seen his grandmother so angry for a long time.
The servants who followed Xie Yi today knelt on the ground, and no one dared to argue, and they said these sinful words in their mouths.
Mrs. Xie didn't even bother to look at them, and directly convicted them: "It is your fault that you slaves can't take good care of your master, and it is your fault to let the master make such a big mistake. ”
As for the deed of sale, it depends on whether these slaves have the ability to take it back.
Mrs. Xie has been in charge of Hou's father for decades, and she has long understood that the people under her bully the weak and fear the hard, regardless of right and wrong, and flatter the master's temperament, but as long as she doesn't cause anything, she usually doesn't care, whatever they want, but this time the trouble is too serious.
Xie Yi didn't know the importance of the National Temple, didn't they, the human spirits who had lived for decades, know either?
Why didn't they stand up and stop Xie Yi when he opened his mouth to pour sewage on Guosi's body?
As long as one of them could be sober, the matter would not have developed to such a point.
After getting the news, even he only felt helpless for a while, the emperor, the eldest princess, Taifu An, General Changping, none of them are easy to mess with!
Seeing that Old Madam Xie was planning to drive all the 'right-hand men' around her out of the house, Xie Yi finally couldn't keep calm and said: "Grandmother, this matter is my fault alone, it's none of their business, they also act according to my orders, if you want to punish me, punish me alone." ”
Old Madam Xie was angry and hated his helplessness, pointed at his nose and scolded: "Do you think this matter can be settled here?" Later, you will go to the ancestral shrine to kneel all night, and I will take you to the Changping General's Mansion early tomorrow morning to ask for guilt! ”
Seeing that the woman in the house couldn't bear to want to ask for mercy, Mrs. Xie said again: "No one can help him intercede, otherwise he will be punished for the same crime!" ”
The ladies who wanted to ask for love shut up one after another, and they didn't dare to speak about their careers, they knew that the old lady was never the same, if they really dared to do it with the old lady at this time, then what was waiting for them was just a letter of resignation.
But after so many years of good life in the Hou Ye Mansion, no one wants to go outside to suffer that hardship, even if they marry again, there will be no better result than Xie Hou Ye Mansion.
Xie Yi was incredulous, his eyes widened, and he shouted aggrievedly: "Grandmother, I have already been taught a lesson in the National Temple. You don't even know how many people are waiting to see my jokes. ”
He lost such a big face in front of so many people, or it won't be long before Xie Xiaohou's 'glorious deeds' will spread throughout Kyoto, they were not famous in Kyoto before, but now they are in the limelight because of his vexatious trouble.
The old lady who loved her grandson the most in the past didn't let it go at this time, and scolded coldly: "For so many years, I have been thinking that you are the widow, and I have been pampering you and indulging you, but I didn't expect to make your character what it is today, how big a thing you have provoked, I don't need to say that I should be clear in my heart, this matter is decided, as the little marquis of Xie Mansion, you know what to do." ”
There are so many people in the Xie family, and they have offended the courtiers and princesses who are now in power, and they are afraid that the entire Xie family will be implicated.
Trying to insult the national temple, this matter can be big or small.
Everything depends on what the eldest princess means.
Xie Yi opened his mouth and responded silently: "The grandson knows, and the grandson will obey the grandmother's arrangement." ”
In the outer courtyard, the minions who did not dissuade the master, and even fanned the flames on the side, were finally punished, and when they saw the little marquis coming out of the old lady's courtyard with a gray face, they knew that there was no one to save them.
Realizing that there was no chance of turning things around, they couldn't help but lower their deliberately amplified shouts.
Xie Yi pursed his lips, stood in front of everyone, and watched the board go down again and again: "I didn't do it right, I will have someone give you ten taels of silver later, whether you can redeem the deed of sale from the housekeeper is up to you." ”
After saying that, he didn't have the slightest nostalgia, and turned around and left without hesitation, able to pull down his face.
Apologizing to a few minions was his limit.
The men of the Xie family have never dared to act, and there is no one who is a bad seed!
The ancestral hall of the Marquis Xie's mansion enshrines dozens of ancestors of the Xie family, including those who are mediocre and those who are careless, including his grandfather and father, who have never met.
Xie Yi knelt straight on the futon, pursed his lips and straightened his back.
The ancestral hall was already cold, and the old lady wanted to teach him a lesson, so she didn't allow him to send him a quilt and food, he rubbed his rumbling abdomen, and regretted that he didn't go outside the house to eat a big meal to fill his stomach.
He wanted to show weakness, but the thought of his grandmother's angry expression made him feel a heavier burden on his shoulders.
He can't be willful, he is the Marquis of the Xie family, and he will support the entire Marquis Mansion in the future.
Early in the morning of the second day, the entire Xie Mansion was alarmed, and the old lady personally took the Hou Ye, who had knelt all night, to the Changping General's Mansion to ask for guilt.
When Li Li got the news, he smiled lightly, and his eyes couldn't tell whether it was praise or sarcasm: "Old Lady Xie is smart, maybe because she is too smart, her grandson is mediocre." ”
An Yichen became interested and asked, "Why do you say he is stupid?" ”
The wife will never show mercy to anyone, this time she only used the word mediocre to describe the current little marquis, which is not normal.
"If he is really stupid, he will not admit his mistake immediately when he sees something bad outside Guoguo Temple, Xiao Marquis Xie is not stupid, but he is too mediocre compared to Mrs. Xie."
If it weren't for the withering population of Xie Mansion and only Xie Yi left, she believed that the old lady would even have the idea of changing the Hou Ye.
An Yichen touched his chin, didn't know what he thought, and bent his eyes with a smile: "I don't think this happened too coincidentally, no matter how unreliable Master Xie is, no one is behind him, how can he fall so fast?" ”
He never liked to think about this, Li Li blinked, deliberately amazed at his intuition, and said, "How did you know now?" I checked everything out yesterday, and the first thing Xie Xiaohou Ye was looking for was the trouble of my sweeping monk brother and apprentice Qingfeng. ”
Qingfeng's child, who has been calm since he was a child, always gives people a good look, and there was a time when they lived together for a while, and the child was a good one.
As for whether this matter has anything to do with him, there must be.
An Yichen seemed to smile: "Call an old man in his fifties a senior brother, you are not ashamed to call him." ”
Li Li raised his eyebrows, and his tone was proud: "No way, who made me senior!" ”
Others have to go through many difficulties when they enter the National Temple, and she, who was in a daze, worshiped the second in command of the National Temple as the masters.
The two talked and laughed, and had a very tacit understanding, and neither mentioned that they were going to visit the National Temple.
One is a straight man of steel, who has already left his son out of the clouds.
The other is ...... Didn't take it to heart.
The subordinates in the mansion came to report: "General, madam, the old lady of the Xie family has come to make amends with the little marquis Xie." ”
"Then let's go and see, no matter what, they are all elders." Li Li was not surprised, and put his hand stained with pastry crumbs in front of An Yichen, who habitually took out his handkerchief and carefully wiped it for him.
An Yichen pinched her face, and his tone was soft and slow: "It's said that it's an old man, don't embarrass people later." ”
"I know that it is difficult for this old lady to run the huge Hou Mansion alone."
