Chapter 178: Revenge
On the day Mrs. Xie returned to Beijing, the Xie family made a big fuss, of course it wasn't Mrs. Xie who made trouble, she was still very knowledgeable.
She just pushed the chief butler of the Xie Mansion in front of Xie Hong and Xie Yan, and at the same time sent someone to invite her father and two elder brothers to come.
Outsiders don't know what the Xie family is messing with, but Lin Qingwan knows everything clearly from the letter sent by Mrs. Xie.
The chief housekeeper of the Xie Mansion did not confess who asked him to drug Mrs. Xie, Yang Yi and his two sons looked at the Xie family with a sneer.
Xie Hong blushed with an old face, and stubbornly resisted their gaze and did not continue the interrogation, but beat up the whole housekeeper's family and sold it, which was regarded as an explanation to Mrs. Xie.
But how could such an explanation satisfy the Yang family, Mrs. Xie didn't say anything specific, but Lin Qingwan knew that from the moment Mrs. Xie returned to Beijing, the Xie family bowed their heads in front of her and the Yang family.
If they want to keep Xie Dalang, they have to offer Mrs. Xie.
But is Mrs. Xie so easy to offer?
Since Mrs. Xie returned to the capital, the Xie family's life has not been easy.
Mrs. Xie did not specifically target the Xie family, after all, she is the housewife of the Xie family, and she is still very generous and polite to the outside world, and she can be regarded as a qualified housewife.
She didn't make a fuss, seeing that her stepson and stepdaughter-in-law were also smiling, and she didn't scold her, even Xie Yan couldn't find her fault.
But the Xie family is not having a good time.
Except for the dismount on the day she entered Beijing, she didn't make a big fuss, but the Xie family tossed her a lot.
The cause of Xie Erlang's death was well known to both parties, and no matter how peaceful it was on the surface, Xie Yan also knew that Mrs. Xie didn't mind at all.
She was in Jiangnan before, and they could still be safe and sound in the capital, but now they see each other and live under the same roof, not to mention that Xie Dalang is weak and afraid, but Xie Yan is afraid that Mrs. Xie will not be able to poison Xie Dalang one day.
So as soon as Mrs. Xie arrived in the capital, they tensed their nerves, but Mrs. Xie was not crazy, and she was not stupid, they just wanted to live separately from others.
The Yang family is in the capital.
Xie Yan had already been beaten with a sack by his two uncles, and he didn't want to try it again at all.
What's more, Mrs. Xie has a naturally suppressed identity for Xie Dalang - she is his stepmother!
It doesn't matter if she is a pro or a successor, Xie Dalang has to be filial to her anyway, and he has to listen to her for a certain range of things.
Xie Dalang is still like this, not to mention Xie Dalang's daughter-in-law Li?
On the second day of Mrs. Xie's arrival in the capital, she asked the Li family to set up rules, and every morning and dusk, her mother-in-law's rules were sufficient, and she did not scold or beat, as long as she got up, Li was waiting by the bedside, helping to hand over the towel and choose clothes.
Give her a dish when eating, make a pot of tea for her when she drinks tea, and just serve her when she goes in and out.
Where did the Lee family suffer from this? In less than three days, he "fell ill".
When she got married, Mrs. Xie was kind to her, and she was a stepmother-in-law, so she didn't want to call her daughter-in-law too much, so she never made her rules.
When Xie Dalang entered Beijing to study, she directly followed Xie Dalang into Beijing, while Mrs. Xie stayed in Yangzhou to take care of the family business, and the two sides lived separately, which was irrelevant.
It can be said that Lee has never suffered such a sin.
Li "fell ill", and Mrs. Xie asked her two children to be carried to her, and did not even let them go back at night, on the grounds that she was afraid that the children would be too sick and directly scared Li to get sick that night.
It was Xie Yandu who personally came forward to bring the two children back and hand them over to Xie Dalang and his wife, for fear that the two grandsons would be folded in the hands of Mrs. Xie.
Mrs. Xie was happy to see them, and seemed to have found a way to torture them, not only asking two children to come to her every day to greet her, but also bringing people over to eat together every once in a while, and stuffing them with some snacks and tea every day.
Li Shi was terrified when he looked at it, especially after seeing Mrs. Xie looking at her meaningful gaze, he always felt a chill in his heart, and he lost weight in less than a month.
By now, I'm too haggard to look like I'm gone.
At the same time, Xie Dalang was not happy, after Mrs. Xie entered Beijing, but only a few times when she went out, there were rumors in secret, saying that he was disloyal, unfilial and unjust, indulged in slavery and hurt people, contradicted his mother, and molested people's daughters.
Even the poems made at the poetry meeting were written by people with knives.
But these are just rumors, if he clarifies, it will make the matter bigger and bigger, and he can't get evidence to prove that Mrs. Xie instructed someone to do it, and it's even harder to poke it out, just like Mrs. Xie can't find out that he killed Erlang.
Because of these things, some people questioned his character and mentioned the cause of Xie Erlang's death.
Originally, the events of three years ago were cold, and not many people remember them anymore, but because Mrs. Xie returned to Beijing, everyone brought it up again.
Everyone looked at him strangely.
Xie Dalang, who had already survived once, couldn't stand this kind of gaze that gathered again, and he was so angry that he lost his temper several times, which made his reputation even worse.
Xie Yan is not much better, the house is full of miasma, he has been busy outside all day, and he has to be annoyed by all kinds of family affairs when he goes home, he doesn't want to go home.
Mrs. Xie gave him two beauties very intimately.
Xie Yan decided that Mrs. Xie was uneasy and kind, and she didn't dare to use the people she sent, but the two girls were really beautiful, which couldn't help but arouse some of his thoughts.
Therefore, Xie Fuzhong has recently added two girls who have become a room, and he is still looking forward to developing on his aunt.
Mrs. Xie was not angry, she happily promoted them, turned around and continued to toss Xie Dalang and his wife.
In addition to these, she is also very keen to take the Li family out as a guest, but after going out a few times, the relationship between Xie Dalang and the Li family who have been operating in the capital for many years fell apart, not to mention the prestige, and even the character was questioned.
Of course, Mrs. Xie would not speak ill of her daughter-in-law, but she only needed a few words to make people reverie.
Xie Hong couldn't see it, this was not just a family struggle, it had already involved the future of the Xie family.
So he personally talked to Mrs. Xie, and Mrs. Xie was courteous in front of this father-in-law, he said anything, and turned around to do whatever he wanted.
Xie Hong had no choice, knowing that the anger in her heart had not disappeared, so she could only go to Yang Yi, who knew that Yang Yi didn't even see him, so she directly asked her subordinates to close the door, and they couldn't see it when they met them head-on in the court, and the post sent to Yang's house was thrown out directly.
Xie Hong frowned, the attitude of the Yang family had obviously softened before, why had it changed again at this time?
Thinking of the scene when Mrs. Xie entered Beijing to make trouble, Xie Hong sighed slightly, and hated his eldest grandson a little.
Mrs. Xie had already lost her only son, so why did he bother? Don't know how easily mothers who have lost their children go crazy?
He didn't make people crazy, but he drove them crazy.
Xie Hong frowned, thinking about whether to find a reason for Mrs. Xie to go back to Yangzhou, after all, she couldn't make trouble like this.
Although it is harmless, but there is a commotion at home, Xie Yan has no intention of political affairs, and Xie Yiyang has no intention of studying, how can it go on like this?
Xie Hong asked her straight to the point, "Eldest daughter-in-law, how are you willing to stop?" ”
The expression on Mrs. Xie's face distorted for a moment, then suppressed the anger that erupted from her, looked up at her father-in-law, and said with a smile: "I also want to know, how can my son be resurrected, father-in-law, you are considered a great Confucian today, you say, how can there be such a ruthless person in this world, how can he bear to attack his own brother?" ”
Xie Hong was silent, and only said in a half-loud voice: "It's his mistake, but Erlang is gone, and you can't let Dalang pay for your life......"
"Then why did my father-in-law ask me?"
Xie Hong frowned and said: "Eldest daughter-in-law, you know that it is impossible, I am thinking of the relationship between the two families, and I can turn a blind eye to the previous things, but don't forget, this is in the Xie family, and I will never allow anyone to ruin the reputation of the Xie family and the future of the Xie family." ”
Mrs. Xie sneered and said, "Father asked them to send a child to me, the eldest or the second, I will raise it myself." ”
She raised her eyebrows at him and smiled, "Let Xie Yiyang and the Li family personally send it to me." ”
Xie Hong frowned fiercely and looked at her unhappily.
Mrs. Xie got up and said, "Father can also refuse, I like my current life very much." Don't threaten me, now my Yang family is not as good as your Xie family, but my father and brother are not vegetarians, not to mention that I have five nephews. ”
Xie Hong thought of Mrs. Xie's five nephews, his back bent, and he nodded after being silent for a while.
He looked at Mrs. Xie's back and was silent, originally the Xie and Yang families were married by two surnames, but now they have become enemies.
Xie Hong was angry with his eldest son when he thought of this, they were all good sons he taught, and he couldn't even teach a child well, what else could he do?
Xie Dalang and Li personally sent their second son to Mrs. Xie.
Mrs. Xie laughed happily for a night, and the next day she brought the crying child back to the Yang family, and in front of the children, she laughed to tears at the two sisters-in-law, "Do you think the Xie family is stupid, they actually gave the child to me!" ”
The two sisters-in-law of the Yang family looked at each other, looking at the children who were huddled aside, not knowing whether to be indignant or sympathetic.
Seeing the person appearing at the door, the two immediately stood up and shouted, "Father-in-law! ”
Mrs. Xie also turned around, got up and saluted lazily, "Father." ”
Yang Yi frowned and looked at the child who was shrunk aside, and said to his subordinates: "Hold him down." ”
"Don't hug it!" Mrs. Xie said sharply: "I have nothing to say to others, why should I hold it?" ”
"Nonsense!" Yang Yi said angrily: "What are you doing to revenge on the child for the mistake made by the adult?" ”
"Who said I was going to take revenge on the child?" Mrs. Xie smiled and touched the child's face, and said with a smile: "Father, I will raise this child well, just like teaching Erlang, but he must know that his parents gave me his life in order to save his reputation." ”
Mrs. Xie sneered, "Doesn't their Xie family like to cause trouble against Xiao Wall?" I'll train them another one, so that they can have a good taste of this disaster. ”
Yang Yi slapped her angrily, and said sadly and angrily: "I have taught you for so many years, and you have learned this?" ”
