The Stepmother is Unkind - Chapter 62
The night Xie Ce fell ill, Mrs. Xie got angry at Nanny Tong and others, but did not punish everyone immediately, but after Xie Ce’s condition improved the next day, she asked carefully.
The nurse did not dare to hide it.
But Xie Ce’s residence and study place were warm. The only way to and from school was that the temperature dropped sharply and it snowed that day. They were all worried that Xie Ce would catch a cold, so they put on a lot of clothes for him to keep warm. .
It may simply be caused by a sudden drop in temperature.
But Mrs. Xie couldn’t find the cause, but she couldn’t rest assured. She was afraid that Xie Ce would get cold again. Later, she carefully reviewed all the movements of Xie Ce that day from morning to night. The only thing that was special was that they ate mutton that night. In the pot, I also ate some for Xie Ce.
Mrs. Xie asked the doctor, and the old doctor was not ambiguous. He said that a young child might get angry after eating a little mutton, but Xie Ce Fenghan was mainly cold.
Mrs. Xie moved the place where Xie Ce was studying to his room to completely reduce the possibility of Xie Ce being exposed to cold.
Although the wind chill can kill people if it is severe, the child is too delicate to see the wind.
Yin Mingyu looked at Madam Xie tossing, but he didn’t want to have the experience of tossing in the middle of the night again, so he suggested quietly: “Why don’t you add martial arts lessons?”
Physical fitness is the most important and fundamental solution.
Mrs. Xie felt distressed for her grandson’s suffering, and decided to invite a gentleman who enlightened her in martial arts with tears in her eyes.
Of course, in fact, he found someone from the guards to lead Xie Ce to run and jump around a bit, and to have a little martial arts enlightenment. The actual strength is similar to his current calligraphy practice, not much.
As a result, Xie Ce was in no danger, and after a few days of recovery, he ushered in a new enlightenment class.
But as a kid, he just thinks this kind of running and jumping class is just play. He had a great time, and he happily said “I like it” when he came back on the first day.
Yin Mingyu sincerely hopes that he will like it forever.
While Xie Ce’s illness is cured, Yin Mingyu’s anger is like a thread, and it never gets better.
She had a hard time speaking, she couldn’t eat well for several days, and she felt a lot of relief.
Xie Qin looked at her up and down, and said seriously, “No, the figure has not changed.”
Yin Mingyu: “…”
The only thing that can teach Yin Mingyu to feel a trace of happiness in her illness is that Mrs. Xie fulfills her promise and asks her to go to the warehouse of the main courtyard to pick something.
Yin Mingyu couldn’t speak in a hoarse voice, and it didn’t delay her actively appearing in the main courtyard.
Madam Xie was so “strong and persistent” towards her that she was speechless. She waved her hand and told Mother Tong to take her to the warehouse to choose.
The Xie family has been passed down for several generations, and the ancestral home is the prosperous and prosperous Yangzhou. The private house of Mrs. Xie alone is already a wealth that many other families cannot match in their entire lives. More importantly, it is rich and noble.
In the warehouses of several houses, various objects are placed in different categories.
Jewelry, precious ornaments, brocade cloth, antique calligraphy and painting… Decades of accumulation, everything.
Yin Mingyu was dazzled. Compared with Mrs. Xie’s private house, her dowry silver was completely insignificant.
Mrs. Xie didn’t restrict her choice, while Mother Tong took her directly to a room with more precious collections.
However, Yin Mingyu is not greedy. She has a clear goal and goes straight to gold and silver. She chose two large goldfish, which were really made of gold into the shape of fish. Twelve.
Seeing that she had chosen this one, Mother Tong asked hesitantly, “Young Madam, are you sure you can only choose these two?”
Yin Mingyu didn’t say a word, just nodded, picked up the goldfish, and walked out of the warehouse with a smile without hesitation.
Mother Tong followed her out, shook her head in confusion, locked the warehouse herself, and just returned to Mrs. Xie with the key.
Mrs. Xie knew that Yin Mingyu chose two goldfish, and she disliked her vision. “Gold is hidden in troubled times. Now that the world is peaceful, antiques should be more valuable.”
Yin Mingyu smiled and said, “That’s because the grandson-in-law has no experience. Do you want the grandson-in-law to change it?”
Mrs. Xie said angrily: “Do you think I am a shop? Change it if you want? Go back and raise your broken gong voice.”
Yin Mingyu: “…”
When she was gone, Madam Xie took back the key to the warehouse, and just then asked Mother Tong, “Did you take her to the antiques?”
Mother Tong said: “Go back to the old lady, I brought it, and said that it is precious there, but the young lady looked around and ran for the gold.”
Mrs. Xie snorted, and repeated duplicitously: “I really don’t know.”
And Yin Mingyu returned to the east courtyard with two big goldfishes that made her feel at ease. She took off her coat and sat on the bed. She was in a happy mood and wiped the big goldfish with a handkerchief herself.
When Xie Qin came back from duty, he saw her playing with two goldfish, and knowing that she got it from her grandmother’s warehouse, she paused and asked, “You just take this? My grandmother has a few unique copies, and I don’t even give them to you. If you only want gold, you might as well bring back the copy and I will exchange it with you.”
Yin Mingyu said with a broken gong and a smile: “It turns out that Langjun wants the solitary copy, then I will be more satisfied with the goldfish.”
Xie Qin was amused, and after a while, recalling the events of the day, he was slightly absent-minded.
During the day, Xie Qinhou listened to the edict at the side of the king, and returned to the Central Book Province to complete the plan, and then presented it to the imperial court to invite His Majesty to take a look. It happened that King Cheng was in the palace at that time.
The two left the imperial palace almost at the same time. Xie Qin was a minister. Naturally, he could not go before the king, so he stood on one side and waited for the king to go first, and then he left the palace.
However, King Cheng walked in front of him, but instead of leaving, he stopped.
Cheng Wang was a man with a strong back and a strong waist. Although Xie Qin was no different in height from him, his stature was slightly thin. People who saw this scene from a distance would think that Xie Qin was weak.
But Xie Qin was calm and calmly bowed his hands.
With his hands behind his back, King Cheng looked at Xie Qin with domineering eyes, and suddenly said sharply: “This king originally wanted Xie Jingming to be my son-in-law, but I never thought that your Xie family would be selfish, but he chose a concubine. Female.”
Xie Qin replied calmly: “Your Highness, forgive me. A man and a woman should marry in the right place. The lower officials know that they are not worthy of His Highness’s favor and dare not climb high.”
King Cheng sneered, meaning it was unclear: “Whether the family is right or not, it’s up to the king to say it. If the Xie family refuses this king repeatedly, it will not give this king face.”
Xie Qin folded his hands and said, “I don’t dare to be an official.”
“Young people, don’t be proud of your family, you need to know how to be flexible.”
King Cheng left this sentence and walked away.
After Xie Qin returned to the mansion, the people who had been sent to investigate the eldest daughter-in-law of Mrs. Xu of Guanglu Temple and her family also returned to report.
Xie Qin returned to the East Court to tell Yin Mingyu about the matter: “You told me about the He family earlier, and today someone came to report that the He family’s son was promoted a while ago, and it was the way to become a king. “
Yin Mingyu grabbed the goldfish’s hand and asked, “Then can I avoid suspicion with Lady Wen in the future?”
She actually liked Lady Wen quite a bit, but if the Xie family was affected by them, which in turn affected her life, there would have to be some choices.
Xie Qin said: “Judging from the current indications, it seems that it is just the actions of the He family. Whether the Xu family is aware of it, or whether it is even inclined to become a king, still needs to be checked again.”
After Yin Mingyu married into the Xie family, she only entertained Mrs. Wen. Xie Qin thought for a while and said, “It’s not a big hindrance for the female relatives to meet.”
But the question of position itself is insoluble.
Yin Mingyu held a big goldfish in his right hand, knocked on another goldfish unconsciously, and said what was in his heart: “So, why let the Xu family tend to become kings?”
After she finished speaking, she reacted and said the words, smiled covertly, and said, “I’ll say it casually, Lord Lang, don’t take it to heart.”
Xie Qin looked at her inquiringly for a moment, then shook his head disapprovingly, and said, “It doesn’t matter. Although the Xie family is a loyal minister, they already have a grudge with King Cheng, so my father will naturally consider the Xie family.”
In fact, there is no need to talk to the female family members of the house, but Xie Qin felt inexplicably that he should talk to Yin Mingyu, so he raised his hand and planned to hold her hand.
“The Xie family won’t stand in line, but they won’t let Cheng Wang take the throne.”
Yin Mingyu heard his words with his ears and was thinking, his eyes noticed Xie Qin’s movements, his body was faster than his head, and he subconsciously quickly retracted his hands to protect the two big goldfish.
Xie Qin: “…”
Yin Mingyu didn’t realize what she had done until she finished it. How could Xie Qin rob her of her gold? He quickly put down the two goldfish and said with a dry smile, “Lang Jun, listen to my explanation…”
Xie Qin tightened and loosened his hand, looking at her blankly, “I’ll listen to your explanation.”
How can this be explained?
The muscle memory of a miser?
Yin Mingyu was cheeky, and he just stuffed his soft weeds into Xie Qin’s palm, and squeezed his fingers between his fingers and shook hands with him.
Yin Mingyu rested his head on Xie Qin’s shoulder again, lengthened his tone deliberately, and said stickily: “Lang Jun, you are so bright and beautiful, you are my little man’s heart.”
But she overestimated what kind of impact she would bring to the listener if she spoke such a tone of voice.
Xie Qin raised his other hand, put his index finger between her eyebrows, and pushed her head away mercilessly.
Yin Mingyu followed his strength and lay on the bed, thinking that at such a time, according to experience, maybe he should kiss away his love and hatred…
But at this moment, Xie Qin threw off her hand indifferently and said cruel words: “Give me one of your goldfish, and forget about today’s business.”
Yin Mingyu: “…”
Sure enough, a harmonious relationship between husband and wife must have one person to make sacrifices.
Sechin eventually “snatched” one of her goldfish.
