Chapter 104

"That's the reason." Mrs. Xie happily shared this idea with Mr. Xie at night, and Mrs. Xie strongly agreed, "As old people, we should be so impartial." Those who saved small gold bricks, and those who did not For bricks, there should be a difference, Xiaoqi should give more.

"What about my cousin's private house? How to divide it?" Mrs. Xie asked with a smile.She was pampered since she was a child, and when she grew up, she married a distant cousin who was in love with her, and she lived a good life.I have never worried about money in my life, and I have never put property in my eyes.At this time, he started to care about Mrs. Xie's private house.

Mrs. Xie coughed twice to cover up, and said dryly: "It's early, it's early, let's not talk about this." Cousin, what are you worrying about, we are full of children and grandchildren, and our lives are so comfortable, no matter what, we can live a good life.Isn't it too early to think about what will happen next?

The old lady Xie looked at her husband silently, without speaking.Old Master Xie knew that he couldn't escape, so he bit the bullet and said coyly: "Of course the children and grandchildren will be equally divided, equally." He has two legitimate sons, two concubine sons, eight grandsons, and seven granddaughters, all of whom are his flesh and blood.

"Cousin, your private house is naturally determined by your will." Mrs. Xie said slowly, "Of course I only have Da Lang, Yu Lang and Shou Gu in my eyes. You must be worried about the life of the second and third children in your heart." Not well off." Xie's family has always been brought up by concubines and concubines, and there are almost few cases of married couples.But the legitimate children have their mother's subsidy, but the concubine does not.Therefore, the life of the concubine is far worse than that of the concubine.

Since Mr. Xie moved to Beibingmasi Hutong, the house is small, and the monthly money is gone, and he has to deal with all the food, drink and clothing by himself, which is very stretched.In fact, the third master Xie has a lot of property, if he lives carefully and carefully, he can get along quite well.But Mr. Xie and Mrs. Xie are not people who live a life. They are used to spending money and are not good at housekeeping.The third wife has been sick from time to time in recent years, and she needs to consult a doctor for medicine, and the tossing of ginseng and cinnamon is not small.

Xie Erye is also a wonderful person.From time to time, letters of greetings and greetings arrive, occasionally hinting that "time is hard".He held a casual job in Nanjing, and his salary was not enough to spend.Two sons are getting married, one daughter is getting married, and money is being spent like running water.The usually honest son couldn't help complaining, how could Mrs. Xie not feel distressed?
Just one point, no matter how much old Mrs. Xie loves Mr. Xie and Mr. Xie, it will be in vain: he has no cash on hand.Mrs. Xie spent his entire life in elegance, and the private house he has accumulated is full of celebrity calligraphy, paintings and antiques. These are all his treasures, and he is reluctant to sell them no matter what.Besides, calligraphy and painting, antiques, etc. are not things that are sold as soon as they are sold, and they are not easy to realize.

Back then, Mr. Xie was involved in a lawsuit, and money and things in the company could not be moved. Mr. Xie looked at a room full of calligraphy, paintings, and antiques, and was determined to sell them, but was stopped by Mrs. Xie, "It's all your favorite things, keep them. "I would rather take out the dowry by myself, and take care of the unworthy bastard, so as to keep my reputation and future.

"Cousin, if you want to leave calligraphy, paintings and antiques for the second and third child, it would be more convenient to give them cash in cash." Mrs. Xie looked at her husband with a calm tone, "When the time comes, I will buy it with you. "You give the cash to the second and third, and leave the calligraphy, paintings and antiques to Dalang and Yulang.Otherwise, if it is sold by the second and third child, it will be a waste of money, and second, people who don't know will think that the Xie family has lost.

Mrs. Xie couldn’t bear it on his face, “I can’t, I can’t. The second and third are both in their teens, so let them go on their own.” With all the cash and money, how could he not be able to survive?Who doesn't marry a daughter and a daughter-in-law, how big is the head and what kind of hat is worn.It's extremely stupid to compare yourself with others without that family background.

The more Mrs. Xie thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong: my cousin never cared about these things, what happened today?It is indispensable to ask each other carefully with a smiling face.The old lady Xie sneered, "Your good daughter-in-law and precious granddaughter will go to Beijing soon. Cousin, let's talk about the ugly things first. The house on Dengshikou Street and the ancestral residence of Yumingfang are not good. Let them live."

Old Mrs. Xie was taken aback before trying to understand, "Your good daughter-in-law and precious granddaughter" refers to the second daughter-in-law and Hua Nian.The second daughter-in-law has been living in Taikang all these years, and Hua Nian married in a neighboring county. Why is she coming to the capital all of a sudden?It would be a good thing if Erfang's grandchildren came.It's just that if you still want to live in the same place, the cousin thinks it won't be tolerated.

"The third child lives alone. If the second child comes to the capital, he will naturally live alone." Seeing his wife's expression was wrong, Mrs. Xie naturally followed her, "We are fair, fair and fair." I bought it for the third child back then Pass a small house, if the second child comes, just buy one too.

"Cousin, this family has already been divided." The old lady Xie said slowly, "I don't want anyone beside me, as long as Da Lang and Yu Lang are by my side. Also, the second and third children don't bother me." Me.” If you want to come to the capital, you don’t write a letter to tell the old man, but Tete sent someone to tell me, but you want to do something.The family has been divided, and it is impossible to support them.It's okay to keep it, as long as it doesn't dangle in front of my eyes, it's annoying.

Mrs. Xie felt guilty, and promised softly, "It's up to you, cousin, everything is up to you." The cousin has always been glorious, she has never liked the second and third, but she has always treated her kindly.The second child and the third child have been spending a lot on food and clothing, education and marriage since they were young. People can't fault it.Now that I am old and old, I just want to be quiet, how can I not follow her.

The next day, Mrs. Xie ordered someone to go out to look at the house.The family has a capable manager, so they chose a three-entry house in Donghuaian Hutong, which is about the same size and price as Mr. Xie's house in Beibingmasi Hutong.Mrs. Xie sent someone to buy it, repair it, and asked his confidant family to send a letter to Mrs. Xie, "The house has been prepared in Donghuaian Hutong, and it can be moved in at any time." The third child bought it, and the second child also bought it.No more excess, no more.

After Fleeting Nian knew about this, he looked up to the sky and sighed: The housing prices in this era are still very reliable!In a similar location, the house price is almost the same between buying it six years ago and buying it now.This has to put aside my previous life. After six years, the house price has risen so much that it makes people want to hang themselves.

The fleeting years have been going well these days.Ever since Tang Nian won the first prize and got engaged to Princess Hanshan, she has "doubled her net worth" in the fleeting years and is often invited to attend various poetry fairs and flower fairs.The noble wives and rich wives who usually wouldn't look at her straightly would hold her little hands and praise her, "This small appearance is really painful." It's the same as her number one scholar brother, with a good appearance.

There are also girls who show their affection quietly, or pretend to be innocent and sarcastic, and they all smile and say nothing.She was very similar to Xie Siye and Tang Niansheng, and with this indifference, she was even more like a father and brother.

"Miss Xie Qi, has Princess Hanshan brought you into the palace?" A girl who was eleven or twelve years old among the guests asked while admiring flowers in the Marquis of Dinghai, blinking her big eyes.She was still young, and she really asked things that shouldn't be asked, and no one seriously blamed her.

"It's really a beauty in the world." In front of Liunian's eyes is a crabapple, blossoming in the wind, the flowers and colors are very bright and beautiful.She was wearing a light green shirt and skirt, standing gracefully beside the crabapple flowers, which made people feel like "two famous flowers are in love with each other".

"Cousin Yue, my seventh younger sister is fascinated by the flowers." Xie Qinian walked over with a smile, held the little girl in his arms and said with a smile, "She has never been to the palace before. However, she will be a guest at Jingyang Palace in the future "Jingyang Palace is the residence of Concubine Shu.

Xie Qinian laughed at Yanyan, as if she didn't understand the meaning behind the little girl's words.Although Princess Hanshan is engaged to Tang Nian, she has not yet married. Whose sister-in-law who has never been married will take her sister-in-law out?This question is actually unreasonable.

Jingyang Palace?She must have chosen the concubine for the ten princes.The little girl named Yue'er bit her lip. The tenth prince is the youngest son of His Majesty, and he is very doted on.I heard that his fief was chosen in the fishing and rice town in the south of the Yangtze River. Whoever marries the ten princes will become a prince and concubine in the future and be rich in the world.

It's a pity that the girls invited by Concubine Shu this time are all from the scholarly family, and none of them are daughters of meritorious families.Yue'er was thinking angrily, then sat aside and sulked.Are these girls from scholars nice?I can't even see it.

Xie Qinian took the time to explain the fleeting time, "Xiaoqi, when you arrive at Jingyang Palace, be careful in your words and deeds." Concubine Shu must like obedient and obedient girls.Xiao Qi is usually very cute, but she is spoiled and spoiled, so she might not be able to stand restraint.

Liu Nian grinned, "Someone will take mine, don't worry." Can Yaya let me enter the palace alone? Naturally, she will go with me.And Aunt Zhang, and Xiao Xu'er, we are so many, who are we afraid of?

Mrs. Dinghai Hou Shizi is busy, so she specially ordered someone to call Liu Nian, and earnestly taught, "If you arrive at Jingyang Palace in the future, if you are lucky enough to return to Concubine Shu, don't neglect it." where.You are my daughter-in-law's cousin anyway, as an elder, I have to mention you.

Fleeting Nian smiled, "It's strange that Madam's words are exactly the same as those of my old lady and wife." You put it down, I have a grandmother, a aunt, and a calm aunt in my family, I need you Chi Chi Wai Wai.

Mrs. Dinghai Hou Shizi spoke earnestly, "As elders, they all have ordinary thoughts. What they say naturally is not far behind. My daughter-in-law, you must keep it in your heart." Liu Nian smiled brightly and agreed.This aunt is really not likable, so hurry up and fool her, and save Xie Qinian from embarrassment.

On the day after tomorrow, the eldest wife and the fourth wife woke up very early, dressed up neatly, took Rui Nian, Jin Nian, and Liu Nian in a carriage, and went to Jingyang Palace for a banquet.The three little girls entered the palace for the first time, very curious in their hearts, they could pretend to be serious, and each one was more ladylike than the other.

When they arrived at Jingyang Palace, Concubine Shu didn't put on airs, she was very amiable.There is a peach grove next to Jingyang Palace, most of the girls who were invited to play in the peach grove, Rui Nian and Jin Nian also went.Fleeting Years was sent by the emperor as a eunuch and went to the Hall of Qinzheng.

"There is no need to be formal." The emperor said gently: "Ayi often said that the little one is so much fun, so interesting. I want to see you." The little one got into the carriage, and there was a lot of laughter?It's rare to be able to laugh.

Fleeting Years is very serious, "Hanshan County Master's words are wrong. Although Xiaoqi is young, he is very knowledgeable. How can it be described as 'fun' and 'interesting'." I am a big girl, and I still use this wording , Too little attention to me!
