Daughter-in-law of the Marquis Family - Chapter 300

The trick of these house women crying, making trouble and hanging themselves is usually not immediately taken into account, because it is really not new. Nine out of ten times they are fooling around, just listening to the excitement.

Old Xie GE’s resignation and return to his hometown is not a matter of face. My wife is used to the days of noble women. When she wants to return to her ancestral home, she is unwilling. It’s not uncommon to make a scene.

Fang Dai said to Xie Jingxi with a look of indifference. “I don’t have to go back to my ancestral home. Since my wife doesn’t want to, it’s better to buy a yard in the capital for the elderly. My wife grew up in the capital and is probably not used to life in the South.”

Fang Dai was afraid that Xie Jingxi was uncomfortable. He didn’t dare to mention it too carefully. He chatted like a gossip, and didn’t ask her whether she wanted to go back. It was completely preconceived when Xu fooled around.

Xie Jingxi didn’t think Xu was completely mischievous. Her attachment to the capital was engraved in her bones, and her aversion to her hometown in Hangzhou was deep into the bone marrow. When she was young, she was bound by the love between husband and wife. She can endure one or two. Now, it’s reasonable for her to make such a fuss, or she’s not. She probably really wants to leave, Then stay alone in the capital.

“Let her go. What does Jingyu say?”

Now there is only one Xie Jingyu to support the Xie family. If there is something at home, he must not ignore it. He is afraid that Xu will make trouble for Jing Yu again.

Just now, a young man from the princess’s house hurried in and gasped: “third aunt grandma, our princess asked me to come and send you a message, Mrs. Xie’s house, it’s gone.”

Xie Jingxi and Fang Dai looked at each other and stood up from the chair, “where is your princess? What a matter sooner or later?”

“Just last night, at first our princess didn’t take it seriously. This morning, Xie’s house came to report the funeral. Our princess and my uncle rushed there immediately.”

What’s more, since people are really gone, they have to go and have a look. No one expected that Xu would die in the capital.

“Madam, do you want to go into the palace and tell me? In case of any situation, we can deal with it.”

“But there’s no need. Xie’s house has nothing to do with the chaotang now. It’s not good for him to go. There won’t be anything.”

Xu is dead. What moths can she produce? As the daughter of the Xie family, she has done her duty. Who can say anything.

Xie Jingxi quickly changed her clothes and hurried to Xie’s house. The lintel of Xie’s house has been hanging half dead since the chaos in the capital. The door is broken and has not been mended. The door picked by Ren Jun is open to the outside world, showing a panoramic view of the past luxuries of Xie’s house.

The Xie family was so frank that they didn’t stop the patronage of Xiao Xiao thieves. The valuable things in the house were almost wiped out. At this time, no matter who came in to have a look, they would probably be filled with emotion. When Xie Jingxi came, he was just in time for the boys from the princess’s house to take care of the aftermath for Xu. After all, the Xie family has no servants and can’t even handle the funeral, It’s not like that.

Xu’s yard was quiet. There was no sign of mourning. The door was not closed. Xie Jingxi went in and saw the white cloth on the beam. She was cluttered in her heart. Only then did she really realize that Xu had hanged herself.

“Third sister, you’re here.” the third princess came out of the inner bedroom. “Just convergence. It’s all handled by mother Feng. Do you want to go in and have a look?”

Xie Jingxi nodded and came. Naturally, she wanted to have a look. Xu was dressed and lying in bed. The ferocity of her death was not intuitively displayed in front of Xie Jingxi. Therefore, it seemed that Xu was still Xu. A face that was very strange no matter how close she looked or how far she looked could not lift too much waves in her heart.

“Three girls!” mother Feng has been kneeling on the ground, probably already crying dry tears, and there is nothing else on her face except tired sadness. “Three girls, your wife must be happy if you can have a look. I blame me for not looking at her.”

Xie Jingxi helped her up. “Mother Feng has done her duty for her mother all her life. No one can blame you. Everyone has his own life. It’s not up to others. You’re old. If you have anything, let us do it. It’s your turn to rest.”

Mother Feng nodded, “I listen to your three girls, but my wife has gone. I will try my best in the last few days. I can still hold on to my old bone.”

After settling down, mother Feng, Xie Jingxi came out with the three princesses and met Xie Jingyu. “Elder sister, you’re here. It’s just time to discuss something with you. Mother should go back to our hometown for burial, but my father doesn’t speak. I don’t know how to do it.”

Xie Jingxi frowned, “what did your father say?”

“It’s OK for him to say something, but I’m worried if he doesn’t say anything. He hasn’t said a word since I came here. However, it seems that it’s probably difficult for his mother to go back to his hometown for burial, as well as the funeral. I think it’s up to three days. The new Emperor sees that he is going to ascend the throne. It’s not easy to handle the funeral wantonly at this juncture, sister. What do you say?”

“The family now depends on you. Naturally, you make the decision. My father doesn’t say a word, which means that you have full discretion. Jing Yu, you will be the only one in the Xie family in the future.”

Xie Jingyu replied, “I know, elder sister. Since my mother didn’t want to go during her lifetime, she stayed in the capital. She will be bereaved two days later.”

“That’s all right.”

The garrison house is a gift from the former Emperor. Xie garrison returned home after leaving office. The house belongs to the things handed in and returned, so there is no need for follow-up treatment. Moreover, there is no one to take care of the house now. It is not a matter to stay empty like this. It is estimated that Xie Cen will not stay for a few days, and three days later will be the grand ceremony of the new emperor’s accession to the throne, so it is urgent for Xu to mourn as soon as possible.

But since then, Xie Jingxi has never seen Xie Cen again. On the second day after Xu’s death, Xie Cen quietly left Beijing and went south, as ignorant as Xu’s death.

As soon as he left, he let the Xu family who came to “discuss the story” for Xu. The two brothers of the Xu family stayed in the capital as officials, and all the children of the Xu family moved to the capital to wipe face. Because Xu hung quietly, the Xu family felt that this was a good opportunity for blackmail, so they went to the door and made a scene, but nothing good. They were blocked by the three princesses.

Xu had a silent funeral, and then there was the grand ceremony of the new emperor’s accession to the throne. The new emperor sympathized with his subjects and the people in the capital. He did not waste people and money wantonly. Everything in the ceremony was simple.

On the third day of the amnesty in the capital, the depression of the previous days was swept away, and the center of gravity became lively again. Once the son of heaven, once the atmosphere, there was a new atmosphere everywhere. At the same time, the replacement, appointment and removal of officials at all levels in the central government were also going on quietly, which was almost equivalent to a reshuffle.

Gu Yun stayed in the cabinet for two or three days in succession. He felt that everything was complicated and dizzy. The holy emperor temporarily assigned him a position to walk in the cabinet. It was inexplicable and groundless, but the central government had nothing to do, so he had to come to him to go through a procedure. It’s no wonder that the holy master believes in him deeply, and all confidential and important matters should pass his eyes. Everyone follows the trend. Before we can’t figure out what the new emperor is, we have to come to him to explore the news, even if we get a word and a half.

But it was hard for Gu Yun. The new cabinet ministers, except Chen Du, were all trembling. They didn’t know what to call it. They couldn’t count on major and minor events. After three days, Gu Yun entered the palace and was ready to quit.

“I said, holy master, you’re trying to spoil the coolies who don’t want money. You should let those new officials do things before they take office. Otherwise, invite them to serve the Bodhisattva. I think Chen Du can be of great use. Give it to him. I have nothing to grind and pass you a book. Don’t you know that my pride and meat are expensive?”

The holy master raised his head from a pile of folds and wanted to spray him a few words, but now uncle Gu is the real Bodhisattva. He has to give it well, “who said you should do it for nothing, you first-class senior, I can still lose you.”

“Put it away quickly. I don’t need your money. I have food, drink and a daughter-in-law. It’s not better to go home for the elderly. Why can’t I live with myself.”

The holy master didn’t know that Gu Yun’s body couldn’t hold up. Needless to say, Pei Zixi had already told him, but he really had no way. At least he couldn’t leave him for a year and a half.

“After Sheng Luan occupied Luzon, I will recruit him to Beijing immediately. After a month or two, I won’t stop him where you like to go to provide for the aged.” the holy master threw down his pen, stood up and rubbed his shoulder. “You saw it this morning. Many people want to make a fuss with me. If you don’t kill them now, it will be more difficult to do things in the future. I’ll be more stable with you.”

If the emperor wants to pick someone to be powerful, Gu Yun must be an accomplice. No matter who sings red face, he can’t run anyway. The new emperor has just ascended the throne, and the people under him are in a wait-and-see state. Some are silent and some are out to pick things. Anyway, they won’t tacit cooperation. That is, everyone wants to take Joe for a face. They want to get promoted to an official and get rich and live a good life, but they don’t want to be despised by the new emperor. They don’t cooperate like this, Everything gets twice the result with half the effort. No wonder Gu Yun is only busy from head to toe.

Gu Yun knew that the holy master knew well, and would not really let him go at this point. He just came to complain. With such a complaint, he could have a fair rest for half a day the next day. As for the salary of that senior official, he deducted all the money and was entitled to contribute to the holy master to do good deeds.

After he returned to the house these days, his spirit was obviously poor. Xie Jingxi knew that the Korean affairs were cumbersome. Although he had opinions in his heart, he had no real solution. He could only say a few words of comfort. “How, Chen Du didn’t enter the cabinet. If others didn’t succeed, he could always count on it. How could he work you like this?”

Gu Yun held his daughter-in-law’s hand and rubbed it back and forth on the scar. “There are always a few thorns in the new position of the holy master. Everyone takes the order and waits for him to tremble. What’s the matter? I can’t hold it. Hold it back and wait to worry.”

“That means you have to sing the double reed with him?”

“No, so when you become a holy man, you can’t think about him with the logic of our common people. Just, if he wants to pass this level, I’ll bear a white face for him and don’t let him owe some favor. How can we go as soon as possible?”
