When the Ruan family heard that the Wang family was going to move Xie Lang to live in Xiaoxiang Courtyard, his mind turned around, and he couldn't help but rejoice.

The library building is located in the northeast of the entire Xie Mansion, and it faces the street from its own door, and it is not open except for the first day of the new year. Xiaoxiang Courtyard is in the south of the library building, although the courtyard is exquisitely repaired, but because it is too remote, and because the library building is open on the first day of every month, it must be very noisy on this day, so it has been empty and no one lives.

If Xie Lang moved there, no matter how talented he was, he would be affected by this noise, right?

The Xie family is a family of scholars, and the children in the house will all go down this road in the future, and now that Xie Rong has entered the Shujishi, the big house can't always be so idle, the eldest son Xie Hua and the second son Xie Tong will have to take the test for fame. The master is also the most knowledgeable, if you can squeeze Xie Lang down because of this, and let him become more and more of an eyesore in front of the master, wouldn't it be a good thing?

With Ruan's brain, she could only comprehend these from Wang's words, and immediately laughed and said, "Daughter-in-law will order to go down!" ”

In the wall under the back porch, which just accommodates half an adult, Xie Wan, who was standing against the wall, thought that it was not so simple.

It's hard to say whether the Wang family believed that she was instigated by Xie Lang, at least one thing is certain, no matter who their brother and sister are influencing whom, the Wang family doesn't want them to stay together anymore.

Separating them has two advantages, one is to divide the feelings between them, and it is easy to grasp the separation of the two. Second, if the two of them do not live together, then the servants around them must also be divided into two parts. There are fewer people around them, so naturally there are more opportunities to see stitches.

In this way, the middle feed of the second room must be managed by Xie Lang and handed over to Xie Lang, which is equivalent to sending the industry to the Wang family. Although it was impossible for the Wang family to know what Xie Wan wanted to do, her move was just crooked, making it impossible for Xie Wan to hide behind his brother's shadow and give orders to manage the affairs of the second room.

That's the biggest disadvantage.

However, the reasons that Wang came up with are also so righteous, so that people can't find faults.

Xie Lang was waiting anxiously outside the gate of the main courtyard, and when he saw Xie Wan turning out listlessly from the Moon Gate, he couldn't help but fly up to greet him: "It's good to come out!" Let's go, we're in trouble! ”

"Brother!"

Xie Wan was pulled by him and walked a few steps, and suddenly stood again. Xie Lang turned his head and looked at her face carefully: "What's wrong?" ”

Xie Wan knew that as long as she told him that she didn't want to be separated from him and wanted to live with him, even if her brother was killed, she would never let Wang's plan succeed, and she called him at this time, that is, she wanted to do it. But when she saw her young brother's gentle and jade-like appearance, she suddenly couldn't speak.

She wasn't really eight years old, and she knew that just as she could fight for her brother, and that her brother could give everything to protect her, her coquettish pretending to stick to her brother could interfere with Wang's plans, but it would be of no real benefit to them. On the contrary, she also had to cause her brother to quarrel with Xie Qigong because of this, thus worsening Xie Qigong's impression of the second room.

Now Xie Qigong is the only person she can use, and she can't lift a stone to shoot herself in the foot. To defeat the Xie family, it is not something that can be achieved overnight, she must work steadily and carefully calculate the gains and losses of each step.

"Brother, let's go back to the room."

She took his hand again and ran towards the Danxiang Temple.

As a big landowner, Xie Fu occupies a small area, and there are not too many people, so the four or five large and small courtyards in the east are all three-room, and the five or six courtyards in the west are all long-housed.

But even so, there are still many courtyards left, and from the main courtyard to the Danxiang Temple, you have to bypass two or three halls and four or five verandahs. Danxiang Courtyard is located in the East Cross Courtyard, if Xie Lang really moves to the Xiaoxiang Courtyard located in the East Cross Courtyard, then she is afraid that she will not be able to see him three or two times a month.

Xie Wan pulled his brother into the door, let Yin Zuo guard outside, and then sat at the kang table and said, "If the Wang family wants to separate us, is my brother willing?" ”

Xie Lang was stunned: "Why?" Isn't it nice for us to live together? What do you hear? ”

Xie Wan paused, and passed on to him exactly what the Wang family said in the house just now. "How does my brother analyze this?"

Recently, Xie Wan has been very calm, and often spits out words that he feels impossible to use, which makes him a little uncomfortable. However, he still wants to believe in the book, "After one thing, one thing grows and one wisdom", his sister has grown up and transformed, which is a great thing. So he pondered it carefully and said, "What the Wang family said, literally, can't find anything wrong. ”

Xie Wan suppressed the urge to roll his eyes and said, "Of course you can't make a mistake." But don't you think it's very out of her character to do so? ”

Xie Lang frowned and thought for a long time, then bit his lip and said, "Is it to separate us?" ”

Xie Wan said: "What else? ”

He shook his head.

Xie Wan didn't expect him to understand the strangeness here, so he didn't care about being disappointed. "After we live separately, you not only have to study and forge ahead, but also divide your energy to take care of the housework, you don't know anything about running a family, and it is bound to take up most of your energy, this is one of them. Second, you are simple by nature and can't figure out these tricks, but Wang is different, she can make you mess up with any careful thoughts. If nothing else, as long as something happens to me here, can you not panic? If the Wang family uses me to blackmail you into doing something, will you do it? ”

Xie Lang was dumbfounded, and his tongue was knotted: "This, this won't be, right?" How could she be so bold? ”

Xie Wan sneered: "She's not bold, you just have to think about how much she dares to take the dowry of the yuan match as a stepfamily." ”

Xie Lang's forehead was sweating, and he sat in a daze for a moment, he suddenly clenched his knees and said, "No! I can't let you be left alone! ”

"I don't want to be separated from my brother either." Xie Wan said, "So, you have to listen to me in this matter." ”

Xie Lang looked at her suspiciously: "What are you going to do?" Don't risk it! ”

Xie Wan smiled lightly and said, "Brother, your task is to revitalize our second room, so that your parents can be at ease in the sky, you have a great responsibility, and you can't be led away by their noses." Let's make a pact. If I can handle this matter without any damage, you can leave our feed and general affairs to me to take care of, and you can just read your books with peace of mind and test your fame, how about it? ”

"How's that going to work?" Xie Lang flicked his sleeves and said: "Although I don't know how to run a family, but you are only eight years old, and you don't understand it even more!" This is the capital that our parents left us to live on, and if one of us is not careful, it will be lost in our hands. I can't take this for granted! ”

Xie Wan said indifferently: "Then brother, what is the best way to stop the Wang family?" ”

Xie Lang choked, looked back at her, speechless.

When it comes to talent and learning, he naturally wins. But in terms of thinking, he is indeed not as agile as his sister. In addition, the nature of men and women is different, he has accepted the way of sages since he was a child, and he has never been in contact with these intriguing tricks, where will he listen to his voice and guess his meaning?

He sat back on the edge of the kang with a staggered atmosphere.

"And what can you do?" He muttered.

"Mountain people have their own tricks." Xie Wan said. "When my mother was there, I followed her every day, and I saw her handle the affairs of the family a lot. It's not necessarily worse than my brother. My brother only said what I said, and you just don't agree to it. If you agree, not only will I let the Wang family steal the chicken, but even if the Luo steward is there, I will find a way to keep him for you. ”

Xie Lang sat still.

Xie Wan crawled over and shook him: "Brother! ”

Xie Lang glanced at her helplessly, turned around, and picked up a copy of the "Three Character Classic" on the table.

Xie Wan raised his lips, knowing that he was acquiescing. Then he beckoned to Yinzuo: "Go and invite Steward Luo over." ”

Luo Sheng came quickly, thinking that it was for the sake of the people in Huangshi Town, so he entered the door and said: "It's all arranged according to the girl's instructions, and everyone will start to pack up their things tonight, and the small one has already let Wu Xing take the booklet to look at it." Yu Xue Yu Fang Ming'er will come into the house early in the morning. ”

Xie Wan nodded, "I didn't have time." After dinner, I will ask Mother Wu to bring you the money that should be given to them. ”

I also remembered that the house was easy to break down if it was idle for a long time, and most of the vacated houses were rented out, but because she was wary of the Wang family, she never planned to rent out the house, so she said: "In the future, Wu Xing will be sent there every two months to live there for two days and clean up." ”

Luo Sheng has no opinion on this, he has other things to do: "Li Ershun insists on marrying Yuxue as his wife, but I am afraid that he will ask for the second young master." ”

Xie Wan's heart suddenly flashed with disgust. "You don't have to worry about it. I'll talk about it when he comes. Saying that, she took a sip of tea, paused, and then said: "I heard that Yinzhu's sister-in-law in front of Mrs. is in charge of the small stove in the big kitchen, and she has been at odds with the housekeeper Pang Sheng's family in the past two days?" She has only woken up for a few days, where does she know about the big kitchen, but she thinks that after she secretly wants to change Pang Sheng's family from the big kitchen in public, Pang Sheng's family will definitely not tolerate Yinzhu's sister-in-law.

Because Luo Sheng had seen her early appearance before, and he wanted to test her depth, although he didn't understand what she was asking for, he still carefully said the words: "Yinzhu's sister-in-law is called Lin Siniang, and it was because of Yinzhu's face in front of his wife that he was able to take on the errand of managing Xiaozao. Now that Yinzhu has been beaten, and his wife has not said a word, Lin Siniang has indeed been scolded by Pang Sheng's family several times in the past few days. This morning, he was fined half a month for putting less water in the third grandmother's medicinal diet. ”
