Chapter 637: Could it be that Old Lady Xie is not the same on the outside?
The party in Fan Yuelou was an afternoon, some people got together to drink tea and chat, some people played cards, some people played chess, etc., because many people came later, Cao Shizi asked the guys in the building to vacate the private room next door.
The people in the room were noisy, it was really a little noisy, and Rong Ci was so noisy that he wanted to leave a few times, but he held back.
Some of his brother said well, these people are the most well-informed, as long as they sit in this party for an afternoon, not to mention the news of the imperial city, even the news outside the imperial city can also know everything, and most of them are true.
Then there are people who have reached cooperation, made friendly relations, exchanged resources at hand, etc., and I don't know how many people want to participate and don't have the opportunity.
Cao Shizi led his cousin Cao Jiankong to get to know everyone, Rong Xun also found an old friend to talk with, Xie Yu was playing cards with others, and Rong Ci was playing chess with the eldest son of the Xu family.
Xu Dagongzi is Xu Huanting's brother Xu Chengjin, who is two years older than Rong Ci, is a reserved and silent son, his chess skills are unique in the imperial city, and there are few characters in the younger generation who can compare with him.
Rong Ci played chess with him, but he also played a good match.
There has never been a shortage of outstanding sons of families in the imperial city, and the younger generation includes Cao Shizi, Gu Zhixuan, Xie Jin, Xu Chengjin and so on.
The snow outside is getting heavier and heavier, the brazier in the house is burning, the guys in the building have added charcoal back and forth several times, the windows are open, some people are looking at the blue lake and enjoying the snow on the river, and the people in the private room next door even began to compose poems with the theme of 'snow'.
After Shen Shi, some people dispersed one after another, but most of them were reluctant to leave and wanted to exchange more feelings.
Rong Ci and Xu Cheng finished the second game today, and felt that today was almost the same, if it was dark after another game, so they made an appointment to go down another day, and at this moment, they heard a commotion from the private room next door.
Someone opened the door to look, but saw Xu Qingqing pulling a woman to leave quickly, and hurriedly went downstairs.
When the good deed came back from watching the play, he talked about it again, and it turned out that this person was none other than Xu Qingqing's wife Liu, that is, the cousin of his family.
Because this family affair was forced to come, and she also tried her best to show her face, although Xu Qingqing married someone back, but she has been lukewarm, and the relationship between husband and wife is not good, this Mrs. Xu felt that Xu Qingqing was still thinking of finding another noble girl to be his wife, and kicked her away, and she was very suspicious.
No, I heard that he followed Gu Zhixuan to Fan Yuelou, and he didn't leave at noon or in the afternoon, thinking that these sons and brothers gathered here to do something unseemly, so they brought people to kill them.
Xu Qingqing was anxious and angry, feeling extremely embarrassed and afraid that she would be even more embarrassed if she continued to make trouble, so he had to take her away quickly.
Everyone sighed for a while.
"It's a pity for Xu Xiu." Xu Qingqing was the champion of the Yuanlang and was awarded the post of revision of the Hanlin Academy, from the six products.
The house is not repaired, the inner house is unstable, it is difficult to have any future at all, just like today, when she comes out to drink tea and chat with friends, she has to come over to make a scene, feeling that the man is looking for a woman outside behind her back, who is still willing to associate with her man.
Xu Qing was born in a poor family, His Majesty gave him the champion, obviously optimistic about him, if there is nothing wrong, when he stays in the Hanlin Academy for three years, there must be a good arrangement, but now it is difficult to say.
"It is said that marrying a wife and marrying a virtuous person, taking a concubine, not to mention that this virtuous person is not virtuous, but he can't be so unreasonable."
"Previously, everyone thought that Xu Zhuangyuan was the champion in the middle of the dynasty, and wanted to kick his uncle's family away and deny this family business, but now it seems that there is something hidden in it?"
"Who knows......"
Rong Ci went downstairs with Rong Xun, Xie Jin and Xie Yu, said goodbye to each other, and then prepared to leave.
Xie Yu's mouth was loud: "Little uncle, when it's the New Year, remember to bring our little aunt back, we miss her." He didn't find it embarrassing to call someone who was only a few years older than him an uncle, and he was very eager to do it.
Rong Ci also knew what kind of character this person was, glanced at him, calmly responded, and after a while, Xie Jin dragged him into the carriage and left.
After Rong Xun got into the carriage, he couldn't help laughing: "This junior of the Xie family really doesn't look like the Xie family. "He has never seen such a person in the Xie family who can talk so much and jump.
Rong Ci said calmly: "It's about like his grandfather." ”
"His grandfather? Xie Ge Lao? Rong Xun raised his eyebrows, a little unconvinced, "I remember that Xie Ge was a very calm and elegant person when he was young. ”
Rong Cixin said, you haven't seen the way this ancestor let himself go after resigning from the old man.
"Could it be that Old Lady Xie is inconsistent?" Rong Xun asked.
Rong Ci glanced at his eldest brother, and then said, "Although it's about the same, it doesn't seem to be a good word to be inconsistent." ”
"It's the difference between the outside and the inside." Rong Xun thought about it and laughed, "It's quite lively to deal with the group of people in the Xie family, right?" ”
The rest of the Xie family is fine, but Old Lady Xie, Xie Yu, and Xie Yiling are really difficult to deal with, not to mention the different things in Old Lady Xie's appearance, but he used to be a person who only recognized his own reasoning, and he ignored you when others ignored you, to put it bluntly, he was unreasonable to admit death.
This can be seen in Xie Yiling.
Since Rong Ci and Xie Yixiao got married, Xie Yiling would come to Rongguo Mansion when he was free and play with Rong Jing Rongxuan, although this kid can't fight, but his reasoning is one after another.
Xie Yu is smart, has a lot of crooked reasoning, and can play, jumping up and down, Rong Xunhe also has a little friendship, and feels that this kid is like poison, so he asked him to play with Rong Ci, but he didn't expect him to hook someone into the Xie family as a son-in-law.
"It's really hilarious."
The two brothers went back to the Rongguo Mansion, and Rong Ci remembered that Xie Yixiao said that he would fold two plum blossoms for him before he went to see the princess of Qingwu today, but the result was that he didn't go back, and went out directly, and he didn't know if there were any plum blossoms.
So he went to Merlin and folded two plum blossoms before returning to the Spring Garden.
When he came back, it was not yet 17 o'clock, the winter days were short, it was still snowing, and the sky was already dark.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, I saw him lift the curtain and step in, and suddenly rejoiced: "Are you back?" ”
Seeing that he was holding two plum branches in his hand, he was in no mood to continue reading the book, and got up and walked over: "You also went to Merlin?" ”
Rong Ci handed her the plum branch, then took off the cloak and hung it on the shelf on the side: "When I came back, I stopped by and went on a trip, and when I heard you talk about it today, I thought about breaking two." ”
"Wait for you to fold it for me, I'm afraid that the plum blossoms will be thanked."
