072: You have to thank me for solving your family(1/2)
If his master really fell in love with the Chang family, it would be difficult for the Chang family to leave. Zhou Nan didn't want a cruel mistress. Such a woman was too scary, but it was not up to him to decide. He scratched his head with some distress.
brain.
Along the way, he secretly glanced at his master's expression, but unfortunately he couldn't see anything on that handsome face, which made him feel a little frustrated.
After following his master for so many years, he still couldn't fully understand his thoughts, or even what he showed might not be true. Thinking of this, he immediately stopped doing useless work. Besides, compared to the three women before,
Master, it seems that the more cruel Mr. Chang is better.
With comparison, he could accept the unacceptable moment. He thought, at least this is normal.
When Xie Jin arrived at the Qin family's courtyard, it happened to be dinner time. The maids guarding the door saw him coming and were about to go in to report. He waved his hand, indicating that they didn't need to report, and he could just go in directly.
Just as he was about to lift the curtain, he heard a familiar voice.
"Madam, this porridge is well cooked, please eat some to refresh yourself..."
"There is also this dish that is refreshing and delicious. It is most suitable for patients to eat. It does not conflict with the soup and medicine. Would you like to try it?"
"Well, this snack is really delicious. It's fragrant and not greasy. It leaves a fragrance in your mouth. Madam, are you sure you don't want to try it?"
"..."
This was Chang's voice, which made his hand that lifted the curtain pause immediately, and what followed was indeed Qin's laughter.
"You treat me like an old woman like a child," Mrs. Qin said with a smile, "but the dish you mentioned is really delicious. It makes me feel good after eating it. Drinking that soup and medicine these days has ruined my appetite...
Well, then pick up a piece and let me try it. This snack is made of yam. Well, this cook is very good at her skills. Auntie Zhong, I will reward these cooks together later. It can be seen that they cook with great care.
..."
Aunt Zhong also laughed and said, "Madam, this old slave has taken note of it. If they can get Madam's reward, they will be more attentive in the future." After a pause, "They also have to thank Mrs. Chang for her kind words..."
"Mother Zhong, don't make fun of me. It's nothing. I'm just borrowing flowers to offer to Buddha. The key is that the flowers are good."
"I just said that this girl is often too modest..."
Before Mrs. Qin finished speaking, Xie Jin raised the curtain and walked in. He greeted Mr. Qin first, "Is mother feeling better?"
When Chang Xi saw Xie Jin come in, she was not surprised at all. When Qin made such a request, she had already thought of what she would do. She would see Xie Jin more and more in the future.
"If you come and see me more often, my mother will be fine." Mrs. Qin happily took Xie Jin's hand and said with a smile, and then took Chang Xi's hand, "Thanks to Mrs. Chang for coming to accompany my mother."
Speaking of which, my food tastes much better, and my appetite has increased a lot compared to usual."
Feeling Xie Jin's eyes looking at her, Chang Xi didn't want to meet his eyes, lowered her head slightly and said, "That's Madam's compliment."
"As a mother, I often say that this child is too modest," Mrs. Qin seemed to be complaining in front of her son, but in fact she was saying good things for Chang Xi. "Sometimes you should just do the right thing, son, don't you think so?" Then she said with emotion, "
I gave birth to you three brothers and sisters for my mother. As for your sister, she is married and cannot come back to visit me often. As for your brother, he is studying in college. He could come back to visit me once a month, but your father is afraid that he will be distracted.
I want him to stay in the academy and work hard. I miss you so much for my mother..."
Xie Jin listened quietly, and Chang Xi did not interrupt.
Sure enough, when the conversation changed, Ms. Qin returned to the topic, "Fortunately, Mrs. Chang is here, so my mother won't be too lonely. It would be great if I could have a grandson again. My mother feels that her life will be complete."
,Son, you won’t let me down, right?”
After saying that, she looked at Xie Jin with hope. This son was her pride.
"Mother, take a good rest, and this illness will slowly get better." Xie Jin avoided the important and ignored the trivial, and never mentioned anything about his grandson.
When Mrs. Qin heard this, a flash of disappointment flashed in her eyes, but she quickly cheered up. The future was long and she shouldn't rush for a moment, so she still responded with a smile, "Okay, I will listen to you, mother."
Chang Xi stood aside silently, no
Interrupting the conversation between mother and son, Mrs. Qin suddenly intertwined her hands with Xie Jin's. She felt the warmth in the other's hands, and her face suddenly became embarrassed. She wanted to take her hand back.
But considering the current situation, we didn’t move in the end.
Xie Jin frowned and wanted to retract his hand, but seeing Qin's pale face, he finally acquiesced to her move. However, the warmth of Chang Xi's hand kept coming from the palm of his hand, which made him
Subconsciously, he turned his head to look at her, only to see that her face was full of embarrassment. This discovery made him laugh secretly. This woman's reaction really didn't look like she had been married.
Mrs. Qin was quite satisfied with the reaction of these two people, "Come and see me more often in the future, it will be better than taking any medicine."
"Yes, mother." Xie Jin responded.
Chang Xi also nodded obediently and said "yes".
When the atmosphere was just right, a housekeeper hurriedly came in to report. Aunt Zhong went over and whispered a few words, then came back with a solemn face and said to Qin, "Madam, the eighth young lady suddenly returned to her parents' house with her two young masters.
Neither Madam nor Master Ba could stop me."
When Chang Xi heard this, she secretly raised her eyebrows. Bai Shi was using her brains. Since her family has support, why bother to support herself?
Anyway, this kind of family marriage is inseparable. Talking about relationships is superfluous in the first place, but the Bai family is blind and treats the scumbag as a treasure, so there is no choice but to endure it.
Now that the family is being asked to come forward, how can someone like Xie Laoba, who has to rely on family support, have the conditions to resist?
But she has no sympathy at all for a scumbag like Jie Laoba.
Qin's expression became serious. She lifted the thin quilt and was about to get out of bed. Chang Xi hurriedly reached out to help her.
Xie Jin frowned and said, "Mom, you are ill, let the second wife handle this matter by herself."
Mrs. Qin waved her hands and said, "Your grandparents must have asked about this matter by now. It's not good if I don't come forward."
After all, she is the mistress of Zhangzhongfeng.
Mrs. Qin patted Chang Xi's hand and motioned her to stand aside first, and then she was supported by Aunt Zhong and the maid to change clothes behind the screen.
Xie Jin and Chang Xi stood together, both of them expressionless.
After a while, Xie Jin whispered, "Stop meddling in this matter."
Chang Xi looked at him with wide eyes and responded in a low voice, "When did I intervene?"
Xie Jin glared at her. If she hadn't interfered, would Bai suddenly return to her parents' home?
Chang Xi sneered, "Master Jie Jiu, I think you haven't understood the root of this matter? From the beginning to the end, I have been the first person on the road. The conflict between Mr. and Mrs. Ba is not something we have today, and the cousin of the Fang family has also
It’s not that I just came to Jie Mansion for a short stay today, it’s just that everyone turned a blind eye before, but now that the Eighth Young Madam has awakened, won’t the matter be exposed?”
Seeing Xie Jin frowning, she said unceremoniously, "Besides, your Jie family has to thank me."
As soon as these words came out, Xie Jin smiled. This woman's face was really thick-skinned. "Why do you see that?"
Chang Xi gave him an analogy, "If a person has a malignant sore, would it heal faster if you prick it? Or if you just let it swell and swell, would it heal faster?"
Needless to say, of course it is necessary to break it.
"That's right. The cousin of the Fang family has an impure mind. Mr. Jie Ba pretends to be stupid. As time goes by, if these two people really do something, it will be out of control. Then they will divorce their wives.
Marry again? Or break your Jie family's clan rules and take a concubine?"
Xie Jin was speechless, because once such a scene occurs, it will trigger a disaster like an earthquake and tsunami.
Chang Xi would not let him go just because he didn't speak. She made it clear directly, "At that time, whether it is the Jie family, the Bai family, or even the Fang family, all three families will lose face. If one of them deals with it,
If it's not done properly, the three families will become enemies. Mr. Jie Jiu, don't think I'm being alarmist."
She had seen too many examples in her previous life of this kind of marriage not working out but turning into enmity.
"So, do your Jie family have to thank me in turn?" Finally, she concluded, "It was me who prevented the situation from happening and allowed your Jie family to handle this matter calmly."
To suppress a Jie Laoba, for Jie Laoba,
For a big family like ours, this is easy. Anyway, Jie Laoba's talent is the most mediocre among the brothers, and he is not a family heir that is focused on training, so the family has no worries at all.
Xie Jin looked at her self-praise, her eyes were full of confidence, and her face was shining, which showed how accurate her understanding of herself was. Such a woman really didn't look like someone from a small family.
Raised?
"I'm curious, where did you learn so many fallacies?"
Chang Xi dared to show off, so he naturally had a strategy to deal with doubts, "Why is it that Master Jiu is still a scholar, but he doesn't know that reading can make people wise?"
"That's a good reason." Xie Jin said quietly, obviously not convinced by this so-called explanation.
Chang Xi didn't care whether he believed it or not. Anyway, she didn't worry about the fact that she came from time-travel time. She didn't plagiarize other people's poems and songs to gain fame, and she didn't do anything too outrageous. She tried her best to
If you act according to the "Law of the Dayu", you will at most be called a few deviants, which has nothing to do with traveling through time.
Xie Jin took a deep look at Chang Xi's beautiful face. This woman was more calm than he thought. Of course, she was more scheming. He had never really seen through her, and he probably only knew the surface of her.
It seems that he has to re-evaluate this woman in his heart, otherwise he may fall into the pit she dug one day. He believes that she is definitely capable of letting him be sold and counting the money for her.
Chang Xi was not afraid of his probing gaze, but she was quite unhappy, "Master Jie Jiu, is there something dirty on my face?"
Xie Jin was stunned for a moment and was about to say no, but then he realized that she was reminding him not to stare at her. She didn't like it. He snorted coldly. This woman is not lovable when she opens her mouth.
"Has anyone ever said that you're not pleasant to talk about?" He deliberately found fault.
Chang Xi raised her eyebrows and said, "What a coincidence, someone said yesterday that I speak nicely and she likes to hear it." After a pause, "Could it be that your Jie Jiuye has a different ear? That's why she doesn't like to hear it."
In short, there is no problem with me, and you are the one with the problem.
Xie Jin couldn't help but laugh angrily. This woman was really full of lies. If he continued talking to her, he would be dragged into a ditch by her.
At this time, Mrs. Qin came out from behind the screen and saw Xie Jin and Chang Xi looking like they were "happily talking to each other". She was immediately relieved. It seemed that her son had enlightened this time.
It was true that he had not been matched with his first three daughters-in-law before, but he did not even say a word to them. In the end, he resigned early, which could only end in disappointment.
To be continued...
