Chapter 308
"Have you met Sixth Cousin's fiancée before?"
After Lu Yuan finished speaking, Xue Rong's expression changed slightly.
She has been a maidservant in Xie Mansion for many years, even though Xue Rong is not a good person, she has developed some skills in observing words and demeanor.
Last year, after the help girl "lost memory", she recognized the head of the family as her elder brother, and recuperated in Tingfengyuan. She served her son for more than a year, and she had never seen him treat anyone as kindly and obediently as he did to the help girl.Although she hadn't been close to serve the maid at that time, she had heard the movement in the wing room in the next few nights.In addition, Nanny Zhang went to Tingfengyuan, and after talking with the helper girl, the snow lotus was sold, and all the guards in the courtyard were beaten. What an important person in my heart.
Xie Zhan is the head of the family, and she is her serious master in the Xie family. Asking her to tell this distant cousin about Fengyuan's privacy behind her back, is it different from asking her to betray the master?
Therefore, Xue Rong shook her head and said with a smile: "What did the girl say, although I have been working in Fengyuan for a while, but at that time the master has not been engaged, so how could he meet the mistress-to-be?"
When Xue Rong just heard the words, her expression moved slightly, and her face calmed down in a blink of an eye. She knew that the Xie family's maid was guarding against her. Is it?"
He made a gesture of regret again, and said: "When I was staying up late, I heard from my sisters-in-law that the girl was extremely beautiful, beautiful, and she was praised as the most beautiful girl in Jiankang City. I have always had little knowledge, but I really want to See you soon."
After speaking, she smiled and looked directly at Xue Rong for a moment.
Xue Rong met her half-smiling gaze, so she had no choice but to accost her in a friendly voice: "Don't be impatient, girl, there will always be a chance to meet each other."
The word "meeting each other" touched Lu Yuan's heartstrings. After Xue Rong left, she secretly figured out how to really meet her so as to confirm the identity of the "handmaid" who listened to Fengyuan that day.
**
Because it was the Yuanchen Festival, the masters of Xie's courtyards went back to tidy up in the courtyards, and then gathered in Wenxi Hall again to greet their parents for the first time in the new year.
The Lu Yuan siblings who had just joined the Xie family were no exception. After the several legitimate children of the Xie family had paid their respects, she and her younger brother solemnly kowtowed to greet Xie Yuan and his wife with the same courtesy as a junior.
Lu Yuan was born with a well-rounded appearance, a gentle and docile temperament, well-mannered and polite, the more Mrs. Xie looked at her, the more she liked her.
After giving the New Year's gift, Madam Xie took Lu Yuan's hand and patted it, glanced at Xie Zhan, and said: "It's been a year, Yuan'er is seventeen years old this year, I'm your age , but you have given birth to Dalang, and it is time for you to think about your own life. Your parents are not around now, and the master and I are your relatives. If you have a man who is in love, you have to tell me Say, I will make the decision for you."
As soon as the words fell, Lu Yuan's face turned red instantly, and he secretly glanced at the direction of Xie Zhan, who was sitting upright, and hurriedly said: "Madam, please don't make fun of Yuan'er. Yuan'er has just arrived in Jiankang City, so there is no such thing as a suitable gentleman."
I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, just now Lu Yuan's sneaky glance at Xie Zhan deliberately paused for a few more moments, and without any surprise, it fell into the eyes of the people present again.
Xie Zhan didn't realize it, he tapped his palm lightly and heavily with the folding fan, his eyes stayed on the sachet at his waist, obviously he looked like he had nothing to do with himself.
Mrs. Xie was furious in her heart, her kind smile remained unchanged, and she said to Lu Yuan: "A few days ago, I saw that the few paintings you made were very good, but if we really want to talk about tasting, our family has to rely on the one who came out." The words of the famous Fenghua Langjun count. You can go to Fengyuan in your spare time, and ask your sixth cousin to give you some guidance. It won’t be long before your level can go a step further.”
As soon as these words fell, everyone present was shocked for a moment.
Among the daughters-in-law, some opened their mouths in surprise, and looked at each other quietly and quickly.They never expected that last night their mother-in-law mentioned that this cousin was "familiar" with Mr. Xie's family, and on the first day of the new year, they would make such an obvious and abrupt act of matchmaking in public again.
Even Xie Yuan, who was drinking tea from a teacup, couldn't help but pause for a moment, thinking to himself why this is so necessary.
Lu Yuan put on a magnanimous appearance at the side, and said: "The sixth cousin is in charge of Dali Temple, and he is also in charge of a government. He has heavy official duties and has no skills at all. How can Yuan'er add another burden to him?"
Then he glanced at Xie Zhan helplessly, expecting him to look at Mrs. Xie's face and politely refute her words.
Unexpectedly, Xie Zhan answered calmly: "Thank you cousin for your understanding."
Mrs. Xie breathed a sigh of relief, she pretended not to understand Xie Zhan's evasion, and smoothed things over with a smile without giving up: "It's just a few pointers, how much effort will it take you? It's just a small thing to look at and mention a few words."
Xie Zhan felt dissatisfied when his mother ignored his own wishes and forcibly involved other girls with him one after another.
The room fell into a brief silence, only the sound of Xie Zhan knocking on the folding fan in his palm unhurriedly.
After a while, Xie Zhan raised his eyes to look at Mrs. Xie.
A pair of temperatureless eyes were dark and deep, not only carrying the usual coldness, but also a sharpness that was hard to ignore.Like a falcon, the pair of eyes are not concealed and sharp, as if they can see everything, they can see right into the bottom of people's hearts, so that there is nowhere to hide all lies and secrets.
Such an imposing appearance made Mrs. Xie panic suddenly.
With a "bang", Xie Zhan's folding fan was thrown on the table next to him, and everyone couldn't help but hold their breath.
Now, the silence in the room turned into dead silence.
Xie Zhan didn't show any mercy, and refused again in public: "Seventh brother studied under Mr. Dongsi, and he is quite accomplished in painting. He has long been better than blue, and I am ashamed of myself."
He turned to Xie Yue, and said with a heavy face, "Seventh brother will go to 'Fuyue Pavilion' later."
When such ruthless words come out, everyone knows what they mean.Why don't you want to point out any paintings, people just don't bother to talk to anyone.
What adds fuel to the flames is that Xie Qilang and Xie Yue, like Xie Xinxuan, were afraid of him as the sixth elder brother since childhood. Now that Xie Zhan has become the head of the family, he fears and respects him. As soon as he heard Xie Zhan's words, he was immediately shocked. Standing up as if, he said loudly and seriously: "Okay, Sixth Brother."
The two gentlemen sang together, like two slaps, hitting people's faces with "slaps, slaps".
Lu Yuan's eyes were red, and she politely withdrew her hand from Mrs. Xie, then returned to her remote seat, and pretended nothing had happened to talk to her eight-year-old brother.
Mrs. Xie was secretly angry, but she couldn't ignore her face, so she could only purse her lips without saying a word.
Everyone in the hall ignored Mrs. Xie's embarrassing expression, pretended nothing happened, and chatted about other matters.
Xie Chen looked at Xie Zhan without any trace, then at Mrs. Xie, quietly approached his wife, and sighed: "I have never seen the sixth brother with such arrogance that he can say what his mother said without saying a word in public." In the face of the mother."
Mrs. Wang sighed secretly, that was the time you had never seen in Heyuan, he drove mother-in-law out of the house directly.But as far as the matter is concerned, the mother-in-law has gone too far in this matter. How can the mother-in-law look for a concubine for the son before the daughter-in-law enters the door?
In front of her husband, Mrs. Wang didn't want to confide about the Crane Garden here without money, and she didn't dare to talk about her mother-in-law, so she just whispered: "When you and I visited Danting last year, I saw Liu's cousin dressed just like Liu Lang. Yes, it must have been ordered by Liu Lang. Also, when Fu girl lost her memory, Liu Lang directly took her back to Tingfengyuan. Can’t you see? Liu Lang took great pains to get back married That's right, this person hasn't married yet, so he was so careful that it was too late, so how could he be involved with other girls?"
Xie Chen suddenly realized and smiled, jokingly said: "Tsk, I really didn't realize that the cold-hearted sixth brother also has the same stupidity as I did back then."
Back then, the two were incompatible and had to be pursued by Xie Chen. After hesitating for a long time, Wang finally made up his mind to fight for the direct son of the Xie family. During this time, Xie Chen really put a lot of thought into her.
With flushed cheeks, Wang gave Xie Chen a coquettish look.
Everyone in the room had their own thoughts, on the surface they were chattering and gossiping in a low voice, but in fact, they were all secretly observing the situation between Xie Zhan and Mrs. Xie. Let alone, especially, last night the new Patriarch played jokes on Mrs. Xie in a flattering manner.
Everyone saw that the expressions of the mother and the son were exactly the same, both of them were stern, their lips were pursed straight, and their beautiful peach blossom eyes were half hanging down coldly.
After all, it is the Lantern Festival, and the weird atmosphere in the hall cannot be allowed to permeate. When no one dared to speak loudly to reconcile, Xie Yuan coughed lightly, and asked Xie Zhan in a warm voice: "When will Liu Lang leave for Xuzhou? "
Xie Zhan returned to Xie Yuan: "Three days later."
Mrs. Xie was surprised, she raised her eyes sharply, and wanted to ask why she was so eager to leave before the end of the year, but she didn't want to bow to her son first, so she didn't open her mouth.
Glancing at his mother's expression from the corner of the eye, Xie Zhan explained to himself: "There are too many Zhuangzi inspecting this time, so I went earlier to try to return to Jiankang City as soon as possible. After all, I can't leave the job at Dali Temple for too long."
Xie Yuan nodded, and said again: "You can find some brocade for your mother, it was said a while ago that it was used up."
Knowing that his father was trying to please his mother, Xie Zhan said kindly, "I will try my best to find more horses for my mother."
Yunjin comes from Daqin, the northern neighbor of Daliang. In the whole Daliang, only a few counties on the northern border of Xuzhou can have it.Its fine weaving, exquisite patterns, and gorgeous brocade patterns have always been known as "an inch of brocade is an inch of gold".
Mrs. Xie finally couldn't help but said: "Oh, the tone is not small."
Xie Zhan quickly answered, "As long as mother wants it, my son will go through fire and water."
As soon as the mother and son exchanged a few words, the atmosphere in the room immediately eased, Xie Dalang Xie Qi took the opportunity to propose: "Why don't you choose a day to hold a banquet and let Liu Lang practice it."
**
After nearly a year, when Fuxuan received an invitation from the Xie Mansion again, she was shocked.
One is that he was surprised that the Xie Manor held a banquet before the end of the year; the other is that this time the host was Mrs. Xie, and according to Mrs. Xie's attitude towards her when she was in Crane Garden last year, it was not likely that she would invite her. her look.
Rao was very puzzled, but Mrs. Xie was the future mother-in-law after all, no matter what, the two of them would have to live in the same house in the future, and it would be better to establish a good relationship in advance, so Fu Xuan accepted the invitation and went to thank her. The government attended the banquet.
During the time when Fuxuan lived in Xie Mansion, you can go back to chapters 233-247.
