Chapter 54 Meeting Grandma (please read and recommend)

After entering the room,

Xu Wenhui was washing and changing clothes while being served by Xia Xiang.
  While asking Xia Xiang what happened that day,

After repeated inquiries, I learned that Li Qiyan found out by chance that Xu Wanling was assigned to the Zhihua Academy by his grandmother.

Xu Wenhui breathed a sigh of relief.

To be honest,
  Xu Wenhui had some doubts about Xu Wanrong before.
  Because she knew that Li Qiyan was punished by Li Keqin to kneel down in the ancestral hall because of Xu Wenhui's affair, Xu Wanrong was the only one in the Xu family.

However, Xu Wanling also offended Liang Churan and Xu Wanrong's mother and daughter because of Xu Wenhui's relationship.

There is a motive to plot against Xu Wanling,
  Now that I think about it, Xu Wenhui somewhat misunderstood Xu Wanrong.
  Although that girl has deep thoughts, she still cares about family ties.

Thinking of those useless servants besides Li Qiyan,

Xu Wenhui looked at Xia Xiang again:

"How is the servant who served you that day? What does the lady have to say about it?"

"Half a month's monthly payment will be confiscated for all!"

"The eldest lady is really a Bodhisattva. It's hard to say that the servants are talking about the eldest lady now, right?"

Xia Xiang didn't dare to speak after hearing this. Xu Wenhui dared to ridicule the eldest lady, but she didn't dare.
  Xu Wenhui didn’t take it seriously and continued:

"You don't have to follow me to Ning'an Hall later. Together with Heishan, bring all the people who followed Ling Yatou that day to the martial arts arena of Xiu Shen Hall.
  Each of them will be rewarded with twenty big boards. You should let Heishan watch it. If any bastard dares to be dissatisfied, don't hold back.

You bastards without a king or master, what do you want them to do! "

Xia Xiang's heart trembled when she heard this, and she nodded in agreement!
  ……

In Ning'an Hall,

When Xu Wenhui arrived, Mrs. Xu was already a little anxious.
  As soon as he saw Xu Wenhui coming back, he couldn't wait to stand up.
  "Oh, my Hui'er, you are finally back. I miss my grandma so much! Why did you go away for so long?"

"The child is unfilial and makes grandma worried!"

"Come on, let grandma see if you've lost weight!"

"Why are you so thin? Yangzhou is a place with great people and delicious food. I think my grandson has gained two pounds!"

"No way, it looks like I've lost weight!"

The grandfather and grandson talked about their longing for a while, and then Xu Wenhui talked about some things about the Sheng family,

But Mrs. Xu always had a calm expression when she heard about the Sheng family.

Xu Wenhui knew that although Mrs. Xu promised Xu Wenhui to contact the Sheng family, she actually looked down on the Sheng family deep down.
  There was nothing he could do about it. The old lady was old and had a stubborn temper, so it would not be possible for her to figure it out in a short while.

So Xu Wenhui changed the topic and started talking about some cultural scenery in Yangzhou.
  However, Xu Wenhui did not mention the matter of Xu Wanling and Li Qiyan, but Mrs. Xu was the first to speak out.

"Hui'er, that girl Yan'er also knows that she was wrong about Wanling. I have already scolded her. Don't make trouble because of this matter again, so as not to hurt the relationship between the two families. I mean, you can clear?"

This grandmother is good at everything and takes herself very seriously.

But there is one thing, that is, special emphasis is placed on concubines.
  He treats the children of concubines better than his servants and doesn’t pay much attention to them!

Xu Wenhui didn't mention it because he didn't want to lie to his grandmother who raised him, but now that his grandmother had said it, he couldn't fool him anymore. However, Xu Wenhui did not answer the old lady's question directly and asked instead:

"Grandma, do you really think that girl Qi Yan knows you're wrong? That girl's temper is always so domineering and domineering. I've never seen her calm down!"

Mrs. Xu's smile faltered slightly when she heard this, but she soon resumed her smile.

"Yan'er is usually a little more coquettish, but she still has a good temper. This time she went too far, but I asked, and it was indeed not intentional!"

"Grandma really thinks she didn't mean it?"

Mrs. Xu was silent for a while, but said firmly:
  "That's right, Yan'er definitely didn't mean it!" Maybe she realized that her tone was wrong, so Mrs. Xu softened her tone again and said,
  "Hui'er, you know my wish. My only wish is to revitalize our Xu family. Now our Xu family can't stand the trouble!

Hard things are easy to break, Hui'er, you still have to learn to hide your strength and bide your time. When you are in a high position in the future, others will naturally not dare to be presumptuous!

Hui'er, the most important thing now is to study hard. Don't pay too much attention to these side issues! "

In order to prevent Xu Wenhui from wasting any more energy on this matter, Mrs. Xu ended it in time, then brought the topic to the Sheng family and asked:
  "By the way, have you discussed your study with the Sheng family? What did the Sheng family say?"

When Xu Wenhui heard this, he knew that his grandmother was not ignorant of Li Qiyan's temper, but she just thought that Xu Wanling was not worth the risk of the Hou Mansion and the Yue Kingdom falling apart. Even if the risk was very small,
  At this moment, Xu Wenhui suddenly understood the reason for the decline of the Hou Mansion. Perhaps it was not only due to the shrinking of the family's power, but also the reason for the decline of the Hou Mansion.

It’s even more because those in power have lost their spirit, have become accustomed to comfort, are timid, and lack the momentum they once had.
  There is a saying that you should hit with one punch to avoid hundreds of punches coming.
  You have to tolerate even small things. How can others look down on you?

Today we are a concubine and a concubine, but what if tomorrow we are a member of another tribe?
  If this continues, the family's cohesion will completely fall apart!
  Even Xu Wenhui admitted that his past ideas were a bit bad.

If you care too much about system tasks, you will constrain yourself.

He has profound martial arts skills and is from a martial arts family.

It can be said that he is blessed by nature, but for the mission, he is afraid of the battlefield.
  It's so wrong,
  Reading may be the right way for others;

But it may not be suitable for him. Maybe it’s time to make some changes.

People live only one life, and the grass and trees fall one year at a time. He has no idea how many more lives he can live, so what is there to fear!
  Seeing Xu Wenhui's silence, Mrs. Xu thought that Xu Wenhui was still angry about Xu Wanling, and she couldn't help but feel a little annoyed.
  "Hui'er! Are you really willing to see me, an old woman, sad too?"

Although he didn't agree with his grandmother's idea, Xu Wenhui still couldn't argue directly.

After all, most of the power in the Hou Mansion still belongs to his grandmother. If he does not temporarily stabilize her, his next plans will be severely hampered and will be much more difficult.
  Although he deceived his grandmother a little, Xu Wenhui didn't care so much anymore.
  "No, grandma misunderstood. I was just thinking about something else. The Sheng family has invited a great scholar to give lectures. When the Sheng family arrives in Bianjing, I will go with his eldest son Sheng Changbai to attend the lectures!"

Mrs. Xu was also very pleased to see that Xu Wenhui had ‘finally figured it out’. She nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile:

"Oh? The Sheng family can actually hire a great scholar? I didn't expect this. It seems that the leader of the Sheng family is quite capable..."

"Yes, at the beginning..."
