Chapter 1279 Family Reunion
In Shen Xi's eyes, my mother and sister showed their faces this time, exposing their vulgarity in front of the prince. The Shen family's family style was corrupt, and if it was known, it would definitely make a laugh.
Fortunately, Zhu Houzhao will not take the initiative to make a statement, both public and private, and will attract a lot of trouble for himself, so there is no need to worry that he will expose the matter.
However, Zhu Houzhao is no longer a seven or eight-year-old naughty boy. He has a certain amount of scheming, can hide things in his heart, and knows coercion and temptation. In Shen Xi's opinion, Zhu Houzhao must have some practical "sweetness" to make this kid keep the secret.
Of course, there is another possibility, that is, Zhu Houzhao doesn't understand things like the style of the clan. Seeing Zhu Houzhao laughing at the end, the kid seemed to think that this matter was quite fun. The fact that my mother and her sister wanted to beat the prince could be settled, and Chen Xi didn't have to worry too much.
Seeing Xie Yuner's beauty faded, Chen Xi hurriedly comforted: "The prince is still young and may not know the serious consequences of offending his dignity. This may be covered up, but no matter what, my mother must change her temperament, otherwise it will bring disaster to this family sooner or later."
Xie Yun'er patted her chest, and was very scared.
Chen Xi knew that his wife and I had a good personal training. After all, she had been sisters for so many years and almost had to talk about anything. Perhaps this matter was told by Xie Yuner and Zhou, and the effect would be much better.
The main purpose is to make Zhou understand that the hidden dragon and crouching tiger in this capital city is not as simple as she imagined. Even teaching a little naughty child a lesson may lead to the prince, let alone other things? One day, if you provoke princes and nobles, your family will be destroyed, so it is best to be a human being with your tail between them so that the Shen family will flourish and develop.
Chen Xi and Xie Yuner talked for a while, suddenly remembered something, took out a few ingots of silver from their bag, with a little apology:
"Yun'er, the court has not paid any salary in the past few months and the family has not made any investments. It must be difficult for you to support this family. You can collect the money first and keep it for the family!"
A hint of relief appeared on Xie Yuner's face. She took the money and put it in, and then said, "The family's expenses were really tight before. Xiaoyu even lent her money. With this money, I feel much more relaxed. Please rest assured, I will definitely make some arrangements at home and live up to my expectations!"
Chen Xi nodded, but still reminded him: "The key is still mother... Mom is the kind of person who doesn't listen to reason with her. Our Shen family has no foundation in the capital. Although something happens, you can ask Jun'er's grandfather for help, but the more you use your favors, it is not good to nag others when you get old. The most important thing is that we should restrain our own behavior."
"Yun'er, you turn around and pretend to inadvertently tell your mother that she was fighting the prince of the current dynasty and the future emperor, scare her, let her calm down and learn to be a lady."
"In addition, Yi'er is still young. Although she has learned some bad things from her mother, she should be able to correct it by just providing good guidance. Let the female teacher teach her how to learn the foundation of "The Women's Commandments", "Inner Training", "The Analects of Confucius" and so on, and then learn to write and paint and female heroes. Don't let her learn the common things from her mother!"
Xie Yuner was humbly taught: "I have recorded it!"
...
...
Chen Xi’s return home is a major event in Chen’s mansion.
Although Shen Mingjun and his wife were driven away by Chen Xi, he still had to comfort the female family members in the family one by one.
At this moment, Chen Xi also knew the disadvantage of having too many wives and concubines. Not only did his long-lost wife wait for him to comfort him, but his concubine was also waiting for him to water him. Even the little girl who had not passed the door was also coveting him secretly. Chen Xi was unwilling to favor one and the other. He knew that he could not deal with so many women at the same time. The best way was to treat him equally, so that he would not be alone without being alone, so that there would be many speculations.
What Chen Xi is most concerned about is Xie Hengnu who is about to give birth.
Xie Hengnu, who was spoiled since childhood, has experienced the most difficult period of time in the Shen family. Not only did he follow him around, but he also returned to the capital with a long pregnancy. He was always worried about his husband who was on the battlefield.
Chen Xi stayed in Xie Hengnu's room and called the girls around him together, and everyone sat together to talk to each other and spoke freely. Chen Xi was like a parent, asking about the situation at home during this period in detail, and even asking about the trivial matters of tea, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea.
Lin Dai opened her mouth several times to say something, but because there were other people present, she didn't dare to say it.
At noon, Chen Mansion held a family dinner, so Shen Mingjun and his wife should have been invited. However, in order to allow Zhou to reflect on it, Chen Xi decided not to send anyone to invite him, so as not to take advantage of the situation and become more arrogant. Chen Xi was about to turn back and apologize to Shen Mingjun and his wife, but the premise was that Xie Yuner told the prince's identity and let Zhou know what fear was.
After lunch, Chen Xi returned to his yard and took a look. The yard was clean and the bedding was filled with a scent of sunshine. It seemed that Xie Yuner was doing well in housework, which was more homely than when he led the army out of Beijing.
Chen Xi returned to the study room in front with satisfaction, thought about it and called Lin Dai alone.
Lin Dai's face was full of depression. After all, in her mind, she was the "big wife" of the Shen family. After all, she grew up with Chen Xi's childhood sweetheart, shared hardships and was deeply in love with Chen Xi.
Chen Xi asked, "I just saw that you had something to say, but I didn't have the chance to talk to you alone. Now I'm asking you to come over, so let's talk about it!"
Lin Dai pouted her mouth slightly and snorted, looking very dissatisfied.
Chen Xidao: "If you don't say it? Then I'll say it... Your brother, Lin Heng, has been following me recently. He is now the deputy general manager of the border army. He will be promoted and reused after this battle. When he returns to the capital, I will try every means to bring him to see you!"
Lin Dai said aggrievedly: "I don't want to listen to my brother's affairs. This separation lasted almost a year. You don't know that I miss you too much... Didn't you agree to give me a child when you left Guangzhou Prefecture?"
Chen Xi had always thought that what Lin Dai wanted to say either had something to do with Lin Heng, or someone was bullied at home and was about to sue the child, who knew it was to tell the child's affairs.
Chen Xi shook his head slightly and smiled bitterly: "Dai'er, there is no need to hurry up and there is a lot of things. I will not leave in a short time when I return to Beijing this time. After that, we have time to make children. Are you afraid that there will be less chances of getting along alone?"
Lin Dai pouted, and her expression seemed to be saying, "I believe you!"
Chen Xi no longer told Lin Daiduo that he would go to the Ministry of War in the afternoon. Yesterday, he was in a hurry and many people did not explain it. Besides, he wanted to transfer the troops from Nanyuan to the capital from Nanyuan to the capital as soon as possible. In any case, he could not let his soldiers stay outside the city, which would make the soldiers feel disappointed.
Chen Xi said: "You wait at home. If you have nothing to do for a short time, I will come back tonight. Now you are the only ones who are in the game, Yun'er and Jun'er, but Jun'er is pregnant, and your sister Yun'er gives in to you again. Do you have less chances of getting pregnant? Be happier, I don't want to see you drooping your face when you go out to work!"
Lin Dai thought about it carefully and it was really the case.
Xie Hengnu is pregnant and obviously will not compete for favor with her. Xie Yuner has always been modest and easy to talk to. Moreover, Xie Yuner gave birth to her eldest son Chen Ping, so she is not so demanding about inheriting the Shen family. Thinking of this, she is the most advantageous one in the family.
But in a blink of an eye, Lin Dai was a little annoyed again: "What is my advantage? Everyone has it, but I don't have anything here. So what if I get the opportunity? If I don't have the ability, I don't have the ability. It seems that my mother is right. I may be a person with no luck. I have been with the idiot for so many years, but I have not been able to give birth to a child for him!"
