Chapter 16: You Idiot!
Hearing her son's words, Mrs. Xie almost laughed: "You idiot, what do you know!" β
"Mother, you have never scolded me so harshly." Xie Cheng was a little unhappy.
In the Xie family, he has always been the one who is pampered and coaxed by Mrs. Xie, before he went to the border with his father to garrison, and his mother sent several letters a month, all of which were missing him.
Why is it that he is called stupid for an outsider now?
Xie Cheng's grievances Mrs. Xie is naturally not clear, even if she is clear, she doesn't bother to pay attention to it: "How long have you been back in Beijing, you don't know anything about the affairs of the Xungui family in Beijing, how can you listen to the wind and rain?" β
"Even if I don't know about other people's families, I saw with my own eyes that Su Hengyu pushed her sister." Xie Cheng is very persistent, he believes in his eyes, and believes that he will not be wrong.
Mrs. Xie sighed, not knowing what to say to her son.
"Human feelings are the most complex, and you can't judge a person whether they are good or bad based on one thing alone. Son, the world is not as black and white as you think. Mrs. Xie swallowed a pill from the hand of the accompanying medical woman.
She always knew that her son was raised too naΓ―ve by her husband, and he only had one thing in the world before, such as war, and most of the people he knew were straightforward military men, and he didn't know the complexity of human nature.
Although Mrs. Xie has never been in contact with the two daughters of the Zhongyong Hou Mansion, but seeing that no one in the entire Hou Mansion favors the real daughter, and the name of the fake daughter has always pressed on her head, she can know that this second lady of the Hou Mansion must not be as innocent as her son sees.
It's just that no matter how much Mrs. Xie has, it's hard to say, after all, it's someone else's business, and it's inconvenient for her to talk too much.
"In short, today we accepted the love of the eldest lady, and when we return home, we will find an opportunity to thank Miss Su." Mrs. Xie mentioned her son.
Xie Cheng has no opinion on this, he has always been so clear about grievances.
He hates Su Hengyu, but he will not forget the other party's kindness today.
The conversation between mother and son here gradually came to an end, and Mrs. Xie's body began to slowly warm up surrounded by several hot pots.
On the other side, Mama Qin also brought back her information: "I see, that mother and son should also be powerful in Beijing." Although they didn't report their origins, I could see that the boy had some martial arts in him. β
"The surname is Xie, there is a young son, and he still has martial arts on his body...... What was the child's expression when he heard that the owner of the manor was me? Su Hengyu asked.
Mama Qin: "Look, it seems that her face is a little ugly. β
"Then I see." Su Hengyu laughed, "It should be the young master of General Weiyuan's Mansion who saved Su Baozhu in my hands not long ago, Xie Cheng." β
Speaking of Xie Cheng, Mama Qin was also a little surprised: "It turned out to be the one, Xie Cheng's father Xie Qingxiao has three sons and two daughters, Xie Cheng is his youngest son, and it is said that he is also the most talented one among them." Xie Cheng was born in the capital but grew up in the border pass, and at a young age, he followed Xie Qingxiao to stand on the city wall to resist the Huns. β
Obviously, Mama Qin still has a good impression of General Weiyuan's family.
Or it should be said that the people of the entire Great Wei Dynasty have a good impression of General Weiyuan's family, after all, the family has been guarding the border pass since his great-grandfather, and has resisted the Xiongnu outside the city for so many years, winning a stable life for the Great Wei for decades.
Before the first Weiyuan general was born, the Xiongnu had to enter the capital several times.
At that time, the mountains and rivers were broken, the people moved south, and the community withered. Even the emperor was so anxious that he couldn't sleep.
It was Xie Cheng's great-grandfather who turned the tide at a critical moment and drove the Xiongnu out of the territory of Great Wei with his men and horses, so that he never broke through again.
It is rumored that the emperor at that time originally wanted to give General Weiyuan the title of Duke of the Kingdom, but General Weiyuan at that time refused. On the grounds that he was worried that his descendants would only enjoy the glory of his ancestors and would not take responsibility, he begged the emperor to give him only the title of general.
If his descendants fail to make such achievements as he did, then he should be an ordinary person, so as not to be in a high position, but he will only do stupid things and lose his face.
And now it seems that the general Weiyuan is really a visionary.
Until now, the Xie family has been glorious for several generations, and their name as the god of war is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people of Great Wei, but no monarch is afraid of the Xie family.
So compared with Xie Qingxiao today, Su Hengyu actually admires the Weiyuan general who rejected the position of the prince of the country.
"I remember that I asked Ru Jun to leave some tender tofu, and asked Ziyun to ask the woman if she could eat it, and if she could, serve her a bowl of sweet bean curd." Su Hengyu suddenly spoke.
Ziyun has always supported her young lady's decision, and she also admires General Weiyuan very much, so she is naturally willing to help his wife on this trip.
Ru Jun is a very good cook, after Su Hengyu showed great interest in tofu, she protected the bean curd left alone very well, and it is still hot.
When Ziyun asked, Ru Jun quickly took out a bowl of bean curd according to Su Hengyu's words, poured a spoonful of brown sugar water, and put some crushed hawthorn.
"It's a pity that there is no fresh fruit in this season, otherwise it would have tasted better." Ru Jun said to Ziyun.
Ziyun replied with a smile: "It's okay, when the fruit grows, let's just make bean curd." β
She put the bean curd into the food box, picked up a few plates of pastries made by Ru Jun, and went all the way to Mrs. Xie's residence.
It was Mrs. Xie's medical woman who received her, Ziyun specially talked about what materials were used in the food box, and only when the medical woman was sure that Mrs. Xie had nothing taboo to eat, she left satisfied.
Inside the house, Mrs. Xie, who had listened to the conversation between the two, laughed: "What good things did you send me, and I want to tell you specifically?" β
The young medicine lady also smiled at her: "I heard that it is made of beans, and I look very soft and cute, and I should have an appetite for the lady." β
When Xie Cheng on the side heard this, he suddenly stood up: "Let me see what she has sent, don't let some of my mother's food that shouldn't be eaten mixed in." β
Mrs. Xie glanced at her son, and then turned to the doctor and said, "You don't pay attention to him, just give it to me." He hasn't been normal today. β
In fact, Mrs. Xie doesn't have any appetite at the moment, her old illness has recurred today, and although she is taking medicine now, her heart is still depressed and uncomfortable.
But since this is the kindness of the host's family, Mrs. Xie wants to try it.
The lid of the food box is opened, and a layer of sweet brown sugar water floats on the snow-white bean curd, and the reddish color in the white makes people have an appetite at a glance.
Mrs. Xie was a little surprised: "This is really made of beans, how can I look like white jade?" β
As she spoke, she picked up a spoon and scooped a piece into her mouth.
In an instant, Mrs. Xie's eyes lit up.
