Kido

Chapter 54

Xie Liunian slept dimly, and the sun rose from China. "The old lady heard that you are not feeling well, so she sent your mother-in-law and girl to visit several times." He Li combed her hair while explaining carefully, "I will see the old man later, please be well." Stop pretending to be sick Yes, the old lady is worried.

"I know." Xie Liunian smiled mischievously and agreed.Who are the old lady and fourth master Xie? There has always been a tacit understanding between mother and child.Fourth Master Xie only needs to let out a word, or even look in the eyes, and the old lady will be able to understand that "Xiaoqi is not awake".

Sure enough, when Xie Liunian arrived at Xuanhui Hall, the old lady held her little hand with pity on her face, "I'm sorry, I've been weak since I was a child." I'm asleep." After Xie Liunian obediently agreed one by one, the old lady whispered in her ear, "Are you awake?" Xie Liunian gave a soft "hmm" with a blushing face.

The eldest wife smiled kindly, "It just so happened that I was preparing the ingredients for the pills, and Xiaoqi is still taking ginseng Yangrong pills now? Let them make more ingredients." The fourth wife is also very virtuous, "Let's put down the needle and thread, and wait for the body." I'll learn when I'm done." Xie Liunian thanked them one by one, "Auntie Xie is concerned, Mrs. Xie is considerate."

In the evening, Fourth Master Xie returned to his residence and learned from the fourth wife that "Xiaoqi is not feeling well", so he also made a special trip to Jingxinyuan to see his daughter. "Did you enjoy playing last night?" His expression was indifferent, and his voice was also indifferent, but Xie Liunian could hear a chill from it.

As if not aware of it, Xie Liunian excitedly took out a card, raised his face and smiled courteously, "Father, I made a big killing last night, it's impressive." He took the card and told Fourth Master Xie how to play, which is indispensable Show off how you won and how many people you locked up.He Li smiled and listened, Fourth Master Xie refused to applaud, but she did.Xie Liunian held her face in his arms and kissed her twice, "It's better to be a mother." The more you save face, the more you will cheer.

It just so happened that Xie Tangnian also came.Xie Liunian started as a little teacher, taught them one by one, and then strongly demanded, "Play for a while, just for a while." As a result, the luck was bad, and he lost a fight, and his little face turned green in the end.

He Li never loses or wins.Xie Tang won a few games when he was young, but Fourth Master Xie looked leisurely, but he won the most.Xie Liunian held the red sandalwood box in which banknotes were placed, and reluctantly said, "Losing money is easy, but saving money is difficult." After working so hard to save money for half his life, he lost all his kung fu in such a short period of time.Alas, I shouldn't have been dazzled by the victory, I shouldn't have hit such a big one.

He Li and Xie Tangnian couldn't bear to see her so attached to her, "Little Seven, let's save for the future." If you lose, you lose, and there is still future.Fourth Master Xie didn't seem to see the pitiful look in his little daughter's eyes, stood up and flicked his sleeves, ordered Xie Tangnian to hold the red sandalwood box, and Shi Shiran went.

"If Xiaoqi treats guests again next time, there will be no banker's ticket to pay the bill." Xie Tangnian laughed.Fourth Master Xie's mouth curled up, but he didn't speak.Xie Tangnian took the red sandalwood box, followed Fourth Master Xie to the study room, and put it in the dark compartment.

When Fourth Master Xie returned to Jingxin Courtyard next time, Xie Liunian was playing with a golden nanmu box triumphantly, "Daddy, touch it, it's like a baby's skin, moist and delicate like jade." And quiet and innocent, demure and elegant.

Seeing that Fourth Master Xie ignored her, the little girl Xie Liunian was not discouraged, she opened the box with a smile, and took out a few banknotes to play with.He Li pulled and thanked Fourth Master, "How can anyone coax a child like this?" What do you do for her with such a large amount of banknotes.How can I get real money to coax children? It's still a huge amount of real money.

Fourth Master Xie leaned on the step, and said leisurely, "Xiaoqi, pick a book." Let her read to learn the truth, it's useless to talk about others.Knowing that if she opened her mouth to teach "don't take other people's money and things", Xiao Qi would say plausibly, "I won!" If she said that the gambling was wrong, she would definitely reach out her hand impatiently, "Give me back the red sandalwood box!" There is also the box The banker's ticket.

Xie Liunian resoundingly agreed, put the banknotes away, and handed over the golden silk nanmu box to He Li for safekeeping, "Daddy, talk about elegance." Uncle Zhang said, he is not afraid of losing no matter how much he loses, and he will make up as much as he loses.I have the economic base, now I need the superstructure!

After reading the book to his daughter and coaxing her to sleep, Fourth Master Xie and He Li were alone in the middle of the night, whispering, "Did she make things difficult for you these days?" "No, she has always been pleasant."

He Li sighed faintly, "Yulang treats me well, I know it all." The Fourth Wife treated herself honestly and harshly, and no one could say anything. "Men don't talk inside, women don't talk outside." Whether it is reasonable or unreasonable to discipline concubines in the main room, it is inconvenient for the husband to comment.Not to mention the parents-in-law, no matter how unruly they are, the parents-in-law will not interfere in the affairs of the daughter-in-law's house.It took so much pains for Yulang to quell the disputes in the inner house and pick himself clean.

Fourth Master Xie smiled slightly, "How can Ah Li thank me?" He had just bathed, only wearing a snow-white coat, and his long black feather-like hair was scattered beside the pillow, making one's heart throbbing.He Li looked sideways at Mr. Yulang, with winking eyes like silk, "I don't appreciate it, Yulang is for Tang'er and Xiaoqi..." Before he finished speaking, his lips were sealed.He Li was confused for a while, Fourth Master Xie hugged her with one hand, and took off the curtain hook with the other, the gauze curtain leaked to the floor, tender and charming, with infinite spring.

The next day, He Li's waist was sore and limp, and before going out, he still didn't forget to put a layer of yellow powder on his face to cover up the spring color on his face.The fourth wife was very disgusted when she saw her, I really don't know what Yulang was thinking, how many years had he rejected concubines and maidservants, but he couldn't let go of this pair of thirty-year-old concubines.Yuan Zhao still has a good color, what can He Li do?Yulang is also a little too nostalgic. "Retire." He Li was sent away early.

The fourth wife is busy.To arrange for Han Siye's birthday gift, Xie Jinnian's clothes and jewelry must be carefully prepared, "Yan'er and Bai'er are young men, so there is nothing wrong with their clothes", and the girl's dress needs to be extra worried.

Besides Xie Jinnian, Xie Liunian was also on his mind. "I don't know what mother wants to see her for." The fourth wife was dizzy and complained in her heart.It's not good if it's too expensive, and it's not good if it's too careless. After picking and choosing, Xie Jinnian ordered a big red dress, while Xie Liunian ordered a pink dress. "She has ready-made ones, so don't make them." Girls are very cute in pink, even the old lady can't say anything.

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Xie disagreed.The fourth wife laughed and returned the gift list, the carriage, and the attendants, and Mrs. Xie had no objection.Only when it came to Xie Jinnian and Xie Liunian's clothes, the old lady pondered for a moment, then said softly: "Xiao Qi is young and innocent, so it's better to wear sky blue."

The fourth wife naturally said "yes" with a smile, and the eldest wife joked, "After all, mother has eyesight. Xiaoqi's skin is snow-white, and she must be like a little fairy in a sky blue dress." Mrs. Xie smiled slightly, if Yulang The daughter-in-law is as transparent as Da Lang's daughter-in-law, so I should save myself a lot of worry.But it can't be said that it is common for the youngest son's wife to be worse than the eldest son's wife.

On the day of Han Siye's birthday, Fourth Master Xie and Fourth Wife went out early with their three sons and two daughters.The eldest wife runs the house well and orderly, with carriages, servants, mother-in-law, daughter-in-law, and girls all ready.Before leaving, Mrs. Xie told Tang Nian, "Good boy, follow your father and don't run around." Seeing that Xie Liunian wanted to explain something, he opened his mouth not knowing what to say.Xie Liunian raised his face and smiled sweetly, "Don't worry, Aunt Zhang will go too, and Sister Yaya will go too." How about I be so honest?

Mrs. Xie first smiled in relief, then straightened her face.This heartless little Qi, at first insisted on following his mother, but now he likes the big family of Nanning Marquis Mansion, this young child has a heart!Although girls are extroverted, they can't go out so early.

The eldest wife was exquisite and translucent, and seeing her mother-in-law's expression was troubled, she ordered someone to bring Fifth Miss Rui Nian here.Rui Nian was innocent and innocent, with a childlike talk, and soon the old lady was amused, "Silly boy, it's not about being arrogant, it's about being arrogant!" Rui Nian blushed, "Grandma, I remember .”

After lunch, Mrs. Xie took a nap as usual.After the eldest lady helped her lie down, she walked out lightly.Although the old lady Xie was staring, she couldn't sleep in every possible way, "Tang'er and Xiao Qi are at Han's house, what's wrong." Tang'er is fine, she is with Yulang, but Xiao Qi is with Yulang's wife.Usually the child would hold his breath when he saw her, but when she coughed, the child was like a frightened little rabbit.What will happen to the Han family?
Now Xie Liunian is swimming in the pond in the back garden of the Han family.She was swimming around like a small fish in the water. Zhang Xi stood on the bank and coaxed her, "Little Qi, come up quickly! If you want to swim, when you get to my house, I will let you swim in warm water." In this pond The water has not been changed for a few days, it is not clean.

Xie Liunian plunged down, and after a long time, he revealed his wet little head, "No! Swim a little longer!" The girl from the Han family stretched out her hand and before she could push me, I fell into the water by myself, just to swim for a while ?The water in this pond is very clear, much bigger than my bath tub!
Whether it is a male guest or a female guest, they are all listening to the show at the moment.The female guests are in the flower hall of the inner house, and the male guests are in the flower hall of the outer courtyard.

On the male guest's side, Fourth Master Xie listened to the servant report "Miss Xie Qi fell into the water", without changing his face, stood up slowly, and cupped his hands at the guests at the table, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry." He turned around and asked the servant gently, "Excuse me, which way should I go to the pond?" The servant pointed out the direction attentively, "Over there."

Stay calm!Be calm!Everyone at the banquet was looking at him with admiration, but they saw Zhang Yu, Marquis of Nanning, approaching him at some point, stretching out his arms to hold him, as if flying, and disappeared after a while.What kind of light work is this?Everyone was stunned at first, then I looked at you, you looked at you, not knowing what to say.

The ladies were not so calm.The fourth wife looked like a loving mother, with tears streaming down her face, "This child! Why are you so naughty!" The little girls were playing in the garden in twos and threes. Why did the girl from Xie's family fall into the water without rules?If the old lady knew, she would love her granddaughter indiscriminately and blame her daughter-in-law.Being ashamed at her mother's house, being scolded at her husband's house, what to do on a happy day.

Xie Yu straightened up.Yaya gently tugged at her, "The little one is broken, he's swimming." He followed her closely, how could he let her suffer?She was lucky, the girl of the Han family walked towards her, and then secretly reached out her hand, and before she touched her, she fell into the water!It's fun to swim.Anyway, there is a little brother here, let her play.

"Is the water dirty?" Xie Yu was still worried. "Very clear." Yaya curled her lips.If the water is not clear, can the little one jump down?Poor kid, he can only play with water in the bath basin every day, and this time he finally got out of the pool.

Mrs. Han ordered people, "Quick! Save Miss Xie Qi!"The old lady Han sighed, and stood up tremblingly, "Please forgive me for being rude, I have to stay with you for a while." She personally took people to the pond.

"Miss Xie Qi is too naughty." "The Han family is kind." A concubine's granddaughter has nothing to do with the Han family, and the respected old lady Han went to rescue her herself.

Walking unhurriedly, Mrs. Han felt overwhelmed.Jin'er, do you and your grandmother look similar, and do you have a similar fate?When my grandmother was young, there was an intelligent, sweet and charming concubine younger sister who followed behind her, covering all her brilliance.The concubine's daughter is gloomy, but the concubine's girl is gorgeous, and the grandmother's childhood is full of laughter.

This Xie Liunian has grown up to this appearance, if he followed Jin'er in a humble way, humble and obedient, it would be fine.With her identity and appearance, she has no obscene appearance, she is calm and elegant, as if she is a daughter of a famous family.Jin'er stood side by side with her, and was completely compared to her.

Alas, as people get older, their hearts become softer and softer.I don't ask for anything else, as long as the Xie family can lock this little girl up, out of sight of the sun, and out of the way of Jin'er, that's all.When she grows up, he will also choose a good match for her, so that she can marry smoothly for the rest of her life.A concubine born out of a common house girl, like this, is not too bad, and I am worthy of her.

It's useless for Fei Momo, it took a few months of work and she still can't handle such a trivial matter.Now that I go out in person, I don't want Xiaoqi from the Xie family to do anything, as long as everyone knows that she is naughty and not a lady, that's fine.Afterwards, the Xie family either felt that it was not appropriate for her to go out, or that she should be disciplined severely, it didn't matter.

Until the last moment, he was unwilling to resort to thunderous means.The old lady Han comes from the Dinghaihou Mansion, and she has seen many sinister things since she was a child.However, since she married into the Han family, she is really a hero and has no use for her skills, and she rarely uses her housekeeping skills.

In the pond, Xie Liunian hadn't enjoyed swimming around.On the edge of the pond stood two men and a boy.A man smiled at Mimi, "Little boy, come out when you have had enough fun." The boy's persuasion was useless, and began to threaten, "Little boy, if you don't come out again, I will go down and catch you!" Another man stood quietly with his hands behind his back. Stand, don't speak.
