Chapter 146: Off the beaten path
.. org, the fastest update of the latest chapter of the reborn Gaomen pet daughter-in-law!
Xie left Xie's mother and Chang Qing behind, waved off the other subordinates, and the mother and son sat together to talk, peeling the fruit, and said lightly, "If you want to say that there is anything worth coming to this Li County, one is the silk and satin, and the other is the melon and fruit water spirit." In the past, before your father became a Beijing official, he stayed in Changzhou Mansion for six years, and he was close to the Li County clan, and the family's local fresh vegetables and fruits were never broken......"
As she spoke, her hand movements slowed down imperceptibly.
Once upon a time, she and Li Zichang also had a concubine.
Knowing that he loves to eat the fruits produced in the orchard of the clan, she personally took the maids to dowry, and returned to Li County every ten years to personally pick, take them home to wash and cut them, put them into a beautiful fruit plate, and welcome him home, she took a skewer to feed him, and he smiled and let her.
At that time, Li Shu's biological mother was still her most powerful big girl, and Li Zichang was still an ambitious young boy at that time.
Now he has a concubine and an aunt, and she only respects each other like ice.
The injury was too unproductive, Xie frowned slightly, and drove the changing picture out of his mind.
She fed Li Yingge half a piece of fruit with her own hands, took the handkerchief and wiped her hands, and said thoughtfully, "Since the old lady has opened her mouth, you will take Chang Qing to live in the old lady's yard." Don't fall in the morning and dusk, and it's a hard time to do it.
With Evergreen, the old lady won't embarrass you openly, if she asks you anything in private, just push it on your mother. As I just confessed, just be naughty with your cousins. Your brothers and sisters, to put it mildly, have all been disciplined by the old lady and are not afraid. How do you usually behave with me, you can still use it on them. Just one point, you should always take evergreen with you, and if you go to the garden to play, you will also bring Xiao Fuding'er. Let him keep a close guard. ”
Xiao Fu Ding'er has a baby face, born thin and small, changed out of the Dali Temple's official clothes and put on a small shirt, and threw it into the pile of people to be inconspicuous. He was a eunuch when he was a child, and he asked Xie's mother to give him a meal, saying that he was still a young maid in the inner courtyard, but no one thought about it.
Now there is Changqing, and he is not in a hurry to break the path of Xiao Fu Ding'er.
Li Yingge understood, and when he saw that Xie's mother and Chang Qing had peeled the fruit, he leaned on Xie's shoulder and said in a low voice, "I listen to you." Just looking at the grandmother's attitude, it seems that it is not easy to let go. When you asked someone to call me, Li Fuzheng was invited into his grandmother's hall, and his uncle was also there.
Father still doesn't know your plans, even if Li Fu's elbow knows how to turn inside, I'm afraid he won't be able to stand up to his grandmother's identity and oppression. I look at Li Fu...... It may not be able to help......"
"I don't need Li Fu's help. He's a front for tipping off. Xie squinted and smiled, the smile in his eyes was full of bamboo, "The matter of dividing the family in the clan must be finalized before your father comes and before the old lady's birthday." 'Disobedient' to the old lady, no one can do it, especially your father, but the old lady doesn't care.
You must be able to see how temperament your uncles and aunts are. Everyone is at the age of holding their grandchildren, and they have to listen to the old lady in everything, as long as the head is not filled with straw bales, but if they are a little ambitious, who can stand pretending to be a grandson for a lifetime?
I have the advantage of being able to impress them and come to my side. Even if you can't help me explicitly, you won't blindly follow the old lady's wishes. As for the uncles and elders in the clan, they are just in charge of affairs in name, and they don't rely on your father?
It was not difficult to convince them to support our separation. What's more, it's not the whole clan that is divided, but our one of us is out of the house. ”
The income and expenditure of the clan depend on the sacrificial fields and industries of the public middle school.
Not to mention how much land Li Zichang expanded to the clan after entering the cabinet, only to say that before he was appointed as a Beijing official, in addition to serving two consecutive terms as the prefect of Changzhou Mansion, he also served as a parent official in many state capitals in Beizhili.
Li Zichang is quite wealthy, and the Xie family is confident.
How could the clan elders not be interested.
Li Yingge thought clearly, but he didn't understand at all, "The two methods you said can only be operated secretly. But it can't be put on the bright side. When the time comes, if you really want to divide the family, you will always have to invite your elders to guarantee and discuss. As long as the grandmother bites to death and does not let go, the elders and uncles of the light clan nod in private, but they are not of much help. ”
If the old lady Yang is forced to be anxious, she will cry, make trouble and hang herself, once she doesn't make sense, who can help her?
Judging from the perception he had seen with his own eyes in his previous life, if the Yang family really wanted to tear his face with the Xie family, it was estimated that nine times out of ten he would dare to lose his face and put on this kind of shrew battle.
Unfilial piety and disobedience are a great crime, and they can be criticized and punished by flesh and blood, and sentenced to exile at worst.
Yang has no fear.
Li Yingge's mind turned around, and he was about to come up with a "bad" idea, when he saw Xie suddenly laugh.
"Who said that I should reason with the old lady and handle the separation of the family according to common sense?" Xie Shi looked at his daughter, his eyes were shining, and people couldn't see through the emotions, "What I said was done, one is to share the old lady's heart, and the other is to take the opportunity to pave the way back, so as to save the clan from talking nonsense in the future."
As for the separation, does the old lady agree? Ha! She had to agree if she didn't agree. I didn't mean to move her, but I wanted to pinch the handle and force her to nod. ”
Xie never thought of getting together and dispersing, and what he fought in the morning was to suppress people and threaten the old lady Yang's idea.
It is also in line with Xie's determination to always be good at drawing salaries from the bottom of the kettle.
Li Yingge only felt that there was a flash of light in his mind, but he couldn't grasp it for a while, and couldn't help but wonder, "What handle can grandmother have?" ”
If so, how could the Xie family have done so far?
Xie's eyes moved slightly, he glanced at Li Yingge deeply, touched his daughter's head, and quietly diverted the topic, "If you don't get involved, you don't get involved." Bringing you here this time is to make you make a gesture, so that the people in the clan who have seen our four rooms have not forgotten their roots, and they are deliberately moving around more with the clan. ”
After that, he shouted Changqing, "Pick up Brother Ying'er's clothes and move them to the old lady's yard." Remember my instructions to accompany Brother Ying for a few days. ”
This time she wanted to live in the clan temporarily, but the Xie family didn't allow Li Yingge to bring any books, nor did she allow her to reveal her knowledge of occult arts, so she only let her bring a female red needle and thread.
Chang Qing blinked, hurriedly threw away the fruit, smiled and pulled Li Yingge away.
Hsieh's words seem to be untrue.
After Li Yingge lived in the old lady's warm pavilion, he had to secretly pay attention to Xie's movements.
It's just that except for the three meals a day and Yang's smiling and unsmiling verbal battles, there seems to be only the joyful atmosphere of their arrival in the old mansion, and there is nothing else abnormal.
Spring rains.
It wasn't until the day of the ancestor worship that the old lady Yang mentioned the matter of Tixie's intention to split the family with a little sarcasm in front of the clan elders who picked up the big beams to worship. It was only when the conversation began, and the heads of the clans who heard about it at first glance looked at each other, glanced at the Yang family, who obviously disagreed, and then looked at the clan fathers and elders who could talk about things.
What I got was a frowning silence.
Yang turned his eyes to look at Xie and sneered disdainfully.
How many people are in the Li family in Li County, it depends on Li Zichang's face, but she, an old feudal monarch, is not a useless ornament.
Xie Shi seemed to have nothing to do with him, neither explaining nor refuting.
It wasn't until the ancestors returned and returned to each courtyard that they called Mother Xie and the accompanying mothers-in-law brought this time, and waved their big hands and said, "Go, according to what I told before, make an appointment with the person who should be made, and prepare the things that should be given." It's time to meet those ghosts, snakes, and gods for a while. ”
The crowd whispered yes, and each took his command.
Just a few days after the Qingming Festival, Chang Qing leaned over to Li Yingge and said mysteriously, "Miss, I just heard the news from Mother Xie. The elders who had the right to speak all received heavy gifts from their wives and signed a contract. What was done yesterday is being done today, and someone is going to the old lady's house. ”
The so-called contract, eighty percent is to ensure that after the four rooms are separated, the supply to the clan will not be cut off.
And most of the people in the clan came to be lobbyists for the Xie family.
None of this is hard to guess.
The only thing Li Yingge can't see through is the so-called unconventional path of the Xie family, how can he not play cards according to common sense?
She put down the needle and thread in her hand, raised her eyes and asked Chang Qing, "There has been no movement in Grandmother's Courtyard these days?" ”
"Nope. Madame did not hide things, and the old lady knew that Madame was traveling around with people, but she did not react. Chang Qing shook his head, but there was not much worry on his face, but he sighed, "It is said that ginger is still old and spicy, which is really true." I see these little fights, but they can't shake the old lady. ”
Li Yingge laughed when he heard this, "You like to chirp the most on weekdays, why are things not as good as expected now, but you are not worried?" ”
Chang Qing was dumbfounded, as if he was at a loss for what to ask, and was about to speak, when he heard the little maid report outside the door, "Second Miss, the sisters and brothers of the big room, the second room, and the third room are coming to you." ”
During these days, the Xie family was busy, and Li Yingge was not idle.
She was impatient to play Tai Chi with the old lady Yang, so she blindly pretended to be stupid and cute, and found excuses to avoid it when she had the opportunity.
She couldn't laugh or cry, but she couldn't.
I can't play with those cousins and sisters who have become parents, it is better to be with my nephews and nieces, so children are shallow-minded, even if they get the explanation of adults, they can't resist Li Yingge's thousands of pounds, and they can't find out anything.
It was Li Yingge who simply opened his heart, just thinking that this trip was really here to play the spring.
As soon as he heard that the little ones had come to the door again, he asked Changqing to bring the snacks he always had on hand, put down his needle and thread and got up and said, "Let's go to the garden to bask in the sun." ”
The spring rain stops and goes, but this day is a warm sunny day.
The grandchildren and grandchildren in the third room are all a little older, and they are playing around with Li Yingge, and they are scattered and crazy in less than a moment.
Chang Qing put away the snack's snack, wiped his sweat, and was about to go back to the pavilion to serve Li Yingge, when he heard a sound of rustling footsteps behind him.
Looking at the sound, it was a maid with a raw face.
Seeing that he was dressed but not like a rough man in the garden, Changqing's eyes rolled, he turned around and walked into two steps, and said with a simple expression, "Is there something wrong with this sister?" ”
