Jingmen Fengyue

Chapter 183 Confession (4)
Xie Fanghua sat aside and frowned.

Seeing that Qin Zheng drank so much in a blink of an eye, Xie Mohan couldn't sit still anymore, and got up to block some of the wine for him.But he was not in good health, and after a few glasses of wine, he couldn't help coughing twice.

"There are still fireworks to watch at Zishi, so don't drink too much alcohol, just enough is enough! Don't miss the fireworks at that time." Zhongyong Hou saw that it was almost the same, and waved his hands to stop those who were about to come forward to toast.

Although some people still wanted to take the opportunity to get close to Qin Zheng, but they gave up when they saw Zhongyong Hou come forward.

"That's right! You can't miss the fireworks!" Qin Zheng put down his wine glass and sat back on the back of the chair. He was three points lazy and seven points drunk. It was clearly ten points, but he took out twelve points as a nobleman, and the rest The extra two points made him shine like a pearl in today's Rongfu Hall.

Xie Fanghua guessed how much stamina this purple orchid drunk would have after drinking twenty or thirty glasses of wine.Today, she wanted to watch fireworks with him, but she didn't want to be disturbed by him, so she ordered behind her, "Go and get a pot of hangover tea."

"Yes! Miss!" Shi Hua nodded and walked out.

Qin Zheng looked at Xie Fanghua, smiled, and his eyes seemed to be shattered.

Xie Fanghua didn't look at him, and quietly looked at several important people in today's Rongfu Hall.One is the patriarch of the Xie clan.One is the uncle of Xie's eldest house, the other is the sixth uncle of Xie's sixth house, another is the helm of Xie's salt warehouse who has retired behind the scenes, and the other is the current head of Xie's rice grain.

The position of the patriarch of the Xie clan can be achieved, and he is in charge of the sacrifices of the whole clan every new year. If the children of the clan make mistakes, they will be sued to the patriarch, and the patriarch will take the elders of the clan to deal with the clan rules.In addition, the ethnology and field houses of the clan are also managed by him.Therefore, although he is not as powerful as Zhongyonghou, he is also the leader of the Xie family, and not ordinary people can sit in this position.

The uncle of Xie's eldest house is a shrewd person, able to marry a wife like Mrs. Min, of course, he is also good at making money.

The sixth uncle of the Xie family's sixth house was born weak. Fortunately, he was born in the Xie family, where good medicines are available, and he is closer to the Zhongyonghou's mansion than others. Therefore, De Meng Zhongyonghou's mansion took care of him and recuperated his sick body.He has a peaceful temperament, although he speaks little, but no one dares to despise him.His wife is Mrs. Ming, because she knows how to make good friends with Mrs. Jingzhong, and even handles affairs with various governments. Therefore, although Xie's sixth family has no children, she is not isolated by the clansmen at all, and is even more favored.

Xie's salt warehouse and Xie's rice grain are the backbone of Xie's two major economic lifelines. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are the world's salt warehouse and the world's rice grain.Xie Fanghua had never met these two people in the previous life. When they met for the first time in this life, they felt that they were indeed the two who were in charge of the Xie family's economic backbone.One is approachable and the other is calm and rigorous.

Xie Fanghua was looking at it, and the servant hurried in from outside and whispered something in Xie Mohan's ear.

Xie Mohan put away his smiling face after hearing this, and looked outside with a frown.

"What's wrong?" Zhongyonghou looked at Xie Mohan.

Xie Mohan said in a low voice, "Grandpa, the Marquis of Yongkang and his wife have come to our residence to ask to see you!"

Zhongyonghou was surprised, his beard raised, "They are not at home having New Year's Eve dinner so late, what are they doing in our house?"

Xie Mohan hesitated for a moment, glanced at Xie Fanghua, and said in a low voice, "Yanting went to Mobei today!"

Zhongyonghou was startled for a moment, then nodded in understanding, stroked his beard and fell silent.

Xie Fanghua could hear the two of them clearly, she looked away from the people at the table, and looked outside, the lights outside were bright, this was the inner courtyard, Yongkang Hou and his wife were blocked at the gate, so naturally they couldn't see anyone.She frowned, it must be that Marquis Yongkang and his wife had been waiting for Yan Ting to go back, but it was dark and Yan Ting hadn't returned to the mansion, they knew that he was with his brother all the time, so they came to Marquis Zhongyong's mansion.

If they knew that Yan Ting had abandoned the Yongkang Hou Mansion and went out of the city overnight to the Mobei Army Camp, they don't know what would happen.

I'm afraid he will be reluctant to forgive his brother and Zhongyonghou's mansion, right?

What's more, she was involved in the middle.

"Grandpa, they are here for Yanting. I will go out for a meeting, such as tonight's banquet. There are too many people here, so it is better not to invite people in." Xie Mohan pondered for a moment and made a decision.

Zhongyonghou nodded, "Alright!"

Xie Mohan stood up and walked out.

At this time, Qin Zheng also stood up suddenly, "I'll go out to get rid of the alcohol, uncle, wait for me, I'll go with you."

Xie Mohan paused, but he still couldn't get used to the title of uncle, so he turned around helplessly and said, "Brother Qin Zheng, after all, you and your sister haven't got married yet, and when we get married, it won't be too late for me to change the name here." .”

"Alright!" Qin Zheng laughed.

Xie Mohan thought that it would be good for Qin Zheng to follow, with him around, the Marquis of Yongkang and his wife would not make a fuss against him.

The two left Rongfu Hall one after the other.

Most of the people sitting at the banquet were drinking to their heart's content, they only thought that the two of them were out to get some fresh air, so naturally they ignored it.Only those few people had doubts about Shi Shu who came in hurriedly, Xie Mohan, and Qin Zheng went out successively, but on a day like today, and they were in Zhongyonghou's mansion, it was naturally inconvenient to go out to inquire in front of Zhongyonghou.

No more toasting to Marquis Zhongyong, all the people at the banquet exchanged glasses with each other, there was no change in Rongfu hall because of the two people going out.

"Girl, did you see Yan Ting before he left?" Zhongyonghoufu asked Xie Fanghua in a low voice.

Xie Fanghua nodded.

Zhongyonghou sighed, "That boy is not a bad-hearted man, and I look pretty good, but it's a pity that he was born in such a family, but he has such a grandmother and such a mother."

"Grandpa, do you know why the Yongkang Hou Mansion chose Fan Yang Lu's daughter Lu Xueyan for Yanting?" Xie Fanghua asked.

Marquis Zhongyong's face moved, blackness flashed in his eyes, and he said in a deep voice, "Many years ago, it was said that Fan Yang Lu's family helped the Marquis of Yongkang survive the catastrophe. Since then, the in-laws have been established."

"What kind of robbery?" Xie Fanghua asked.

Zhongyonghou shook his head.

Xie Fanghua looked at Grandpa's expression, and felt that Grandpa must know something, maybe it's not convenient to say it here or because he didn't get any conclusive information, so she didn't ask any more.

"Shi Mo, go out and have a look!" Xie Fanghua turned her head and told Shi Mo who was behind her.

Shi Mo nodded and walked out.

Not long after, the servant painting came in with the hangover soup, Xie Fanghua took it, poured a bowl for Zhongyonghou, and handed it to him.

Zhongyonghou shook his head, "I haven't had a few glasses of wine, save it for Zheng boy!"

"You're getting old, you don't want a few glasses of wine." Xie Fanghua stubbornly stuffed it into his hand.

Zhongyonghou shook his head and muttered, "When there is no girl, I miss her, but when she comes back, she is under control."
