Chapter 55 Mother and Child Love 1
Tomorrow is the day when Xia Mengxi is going to marry Cheng Gu. Seeing that things are imminent, Xia Chuanyuan only feels very difficult in his heart, and Ning'er's method is not undesirable. After all, between the prime minister's mansion and Xia Mengxi, giving up a daughter can be exchanged for the peace of the prime minister's mansion and his righteous image in the eyes of everyone. This account, It can still be calculated.
Thinking of this, Xia Chuanyuan frowned and got up and walked out. Xiao Liuzi immediately followed. Xia Chuanyuan said without looking back, "You don't need to follow me. I'll go to Rongfu Hall."
Xiao Liuzi hurriedly stopped. After watching Xia Chuanyuan leave, Xiao Liuzi's eyes turned around and walked in the direction of Zhuzhi Garden.
Xia Mengning is practicing calligraphy in front of the window. In fact, she is no less anxious than Xia Chuanyuan. She has proposed such a method. If Xia Chuanyuan adopts it, she is also a successful plan. If she does not agree, I'm afraid she will be implicated in herself.
When hesitating to think about things, a drop of ink fell from the tip of the pen and stained a stain on the white rice paper. Xia Mengning looked at it carefully and couldn't help smiling bitterly.
At this moment, there was a voice from outside. In a while, Jiu'er pushed the door and said, "Miss, the little sixth son beside the master came and said that he had something to do with you."
Xia Mengning was stunned and then said, "Let him come in. You go outside and watch. Don't let anyone else come in."
Jiu'er answered. Xia Mengning tidied up her dress, sat on the small couch, and casually fiddled with the lilies in the bottle. After the little six came in, she first saluted respectfully, "I've met the third lady."
Xia Mengning smiled and said, "You don't have to be polite. Hurry up." With that, he poured a cup of tea for Xiao Liuzi in person. "You must have drunk a lot of expensive tea by your father's side. I don't have any good tea here. Only this newly picked awn needle after the rain. Drink some and try the taste."
Such an attitude makes Xiao Liuzi feel extremely comfortable, but he is also a personal thought, so he immediately thought that this third lady must be a thoughtful person who can attract people's hearts regardless of trifles. This heart is really valuable.
Thinking of this, Xiao Liuzi hurriedly and respectfully took the teacup and did not sit down. After all, no matter how much he gave his face, he was also a slave. How could he sit at the same table with his master.
Xia Mengning saw Xiao Liuzi's expression and knew it in her heart. She didn't care much about it. She just said lightly, "Does Daddy want you to come to me?"
Xiao Liuzi quickly shook his head, put down the teacup and said, "Master just went to Rongfu Hall."
The cup in Xia Mengning's hand suddenly pinched tightly, but her face did not change. She just smiled and said, "Oh? Dad went to see grandma. I don't know what's the matter?"
Xiao Liuzi secretly admired that a 13-year-old girl could not be surprised and panic when something happened. It was really not to be underestimated. At the moment, he just smiled and said, "Isn't this just here to tell the third lady? Before the master went to the old lady, he whispered, 'Although he is reluctant, he can only do this. ", little fool, Miss San must already know it."
Xia Mengning suddenly relaxed. She thought that her father had thought of something else, so she went to Rongfu Hall to discuss with her grandmother. Now it seems that she thinks that her father has a good idea in her heart, but she just wants to say it to her grandmother.
Xia Mengning smiled and took out a fragrant bag embroidered with Fu characters from the needle and thread basket on the small couch and handed it to Xiao Liuzi. "I'm sorry to bother you to come and return it. This incense bag contains a few medicinal herbs of Ning Shen, which can also play a role in calming the mind at the head of the bed. There is a girl in my garden, you Don't dislike it."
Xiao Liuzi hurriedly took it over and was happy. The third lady said that there was a girl in the garden, that is to say, she would treat herself as her own person from now on. Thinking of this, Xiao Liuzi immediately showed an understanding expression, carefully put the incense bag into the sleeve cage, and said with a smile, "Miss San's favor, Xiao The sixth son should remember it forever.
Xia Mengning smiled and frowned for a moment, "Although Dad has made up his mind, he can't guarantee that his grandmother will have another trouble. If this matter is not solved today, I'm afraid it will be more difficult in the future."
Xiao Liuzi nodded, "Miss San must have had a countermeasure for a long time..."
Xia Mengning smiled undeniably: "You still need to add more words to this matter."
Xia Chuanyuan arrived at Rongfutang. First, he told Xie that Cheng Gu was dead. Unexpectedly, Xie just said with a faint face, "I know, just say, what do you want to deal with this?"
Xie's straightforward attitude makes Xia Chuanyuan not know what to say, but things always have to be solved. Since he has to do this, he must say it.
Thinking of this, Xia Chuanyuan told Xie how to solve it. Before he finished speaking, Xie opened his eyes angrily, "No, send the eldest daughter to the Antang. You can think of it."
Xia Chuanyuan's face was embarrassed, but he still squeezed his mouth and said nothing. Xie Shi saw him and knew that his son's personality was a stubborn person. Thinking of this, Xie felt that if he changed and refuted him as strongly as before, I'm afraid it would cause unnecessary alienation between mother and son. It's not as good as Xu Xu Tuzhi, and it's better than a plain and strange relationship.
"If you want to send Xi'er into the Antang, do you think whether your wife will agree? Even if you can deal with the Fang family, how can the Zhengong Mansion be persuaded overnight?"
Xia Chuanyuan rubbed the pattern on the tea bowl with his fingers, "Mother, I know what's in your heart is that you don't want to offend the Duke of Zhen, but now things are imminent. What do you think there is a better way if you don't do this?"
Xie Shi was told by Xia Chuanyuan, and she was unhappy. She looked at him and became a little worried. She said, "Do you think everything will be fine if you send Xier out. People will not know such a loophole lie. Do you regard the people in the capital as fools?"
Such a straightforward accusation made Xia Chuanyuan's face white. Even if he proposed to send Xi'er to the an tang, didn't his mother say that she was the master who ignored family and only cared about interests? Xia Chuanyuan had some pimples in his heart. From the beginning of remembering things, his mother was very strict about her education. When to eat? When do you go to bed, when do you go to study, and even make some friends with yourself? They are all controlled by their mother. They have no personal freedom at all. Maybe they have been disciplined a lot. Until now, their children have grown up, but their mothers still always want to intervene in their own affairs, other people's mothers, this I have enjoyed happiness in my old age, but although I am nearly 40 years old, I am still like a child. No matter what, I have to report to my mother before I can let go.
Thinking of this, Xia Chuanyuan suddenly felt a sense of disgust. She was so old that she didn't need her mother's instructions at all. What's more, her mother's words were always the same. Many times, she said that she would discuss with herself, but in fact, in the end, it was her idea. Just follow her instructions. For so many years, I have never had any freedom at all. On the contrary, I am more like a stick in my mother's hand. Wherever she says, I will go, otherwise, I will live a restless life for a long time.
"Mother, my son has made up his mind about this matter. I hope my mother won't say more."
After saying that, Xia Chuanyuan stood up. Xie didn't expect his son, who had always been obedient, to talk to him like this, and immediately stopped him and said, "Come back."
Maybe he was used to being controlled by Xie since he was a child. Xia Chuanyuan couldn't help but stop, but he still didn't turn around and just stopped in place.
Xie Shi stood up from the chair. Chen's mother hurried over to hold her body. Xie took a crutch and tremblingly walked to Xia Chuanyuan and said, "How about it? Now you don't even listen to me, do you? Do you think I can hurt you? Everything I do and everything I think is based on what our Prime Minister's mansion can do better. What was your attitude just now? Is it your attitude towards your mother?
Hearing this, Xia Chuanyuan turned around and took a step back. He bowed to Xie and said, "It's my son's fault. Mother, don't be angry. Take care of yourself."
Xie's face has improved, but it is still difficult to dissipate his anger. "I don't agree with your approach, just because Xi'er is the direct eldest daughter in our house. If you do this, others won't say anything, and you may not say anything about our prime minister's mansion behind your back."
Seeing that Xia Chuanyuan didn't say anything, Xie looked at him, and the sense of superiority in his heart grew again. He said with a majestic face, "In my opinion, Cheng Gu is dead, but Xi'er can't marry again. People in the capital are talking about it. Let's choose another one of the same age from the common daughters in the house, which is the same as that Cheng. As a couple, Gu Jie bought a house and asked her to go there to guard for Cheng Gu. In this way, it is also decent. After all, there is no reason for a direct young lady to be a widow for the dead. This concubine is also a little care of our Prime Minister's mansion. There is no way for others to question it anymore. You can also get a selfish and upright. Good word of mouth."
After saying that, Xia Chuanyuan immediately raised his head and stared at Xie, with his lips shaking a little. "According to his mother, which lady in the house is suitable?"
Although this is the question, Xia Chuanyuan has long heard the meaning of Xie's words. You'er is still young, and only Ning'er is only two years younger than Xi'er. The meaning in his mother's words is to let Ning'er be widowed for her sister.
It's ridiculous, it's so ridiculous that it can't be added!
Not to mention that once this matter is put into action, it will be criticized. Even the relationship between Ning'er and the son of the world does not allow himself to do this. How tense the situation is now. If you offend the son of the world, I'm afraid there will be no good life.
Xie Shi didn't hear the meaning of Xia Chuanyuan's words, but said with a pale face, "Ning'er is only two years younger than Xi'er, and she's just a concubine. It's not impossible for her to be a widow on behalf of her sister."
