??Chapter 77 Welcome
??At this moment, it’s not time yet, and there are no guests. Mammy Tang is just making an excuse to prevent Xie Zhihui from going to see the second wife. I don't know what to be afraid of.
"Second Miss, what Madam means is that today's celebration banquet is about Xie's family's face. If something goes wrong, it will be fine. Let the girl stick to the banquet. Madam's illness is not serious, just rest for a few days. gone."
??Xie Zhihui's original character was indeed upright, she followed what others said, and never tried to judge others with malice, but since she was touched last time, she knew that there are not only two colors in this world, black and white.
??When did her mother become so virtuous?
??Xie Zhihui couldn't help looking at Nanny Tang, and seeing Nanny Tang's eyes dodge, she asked directly, "My wife isn't sick, is she? She just refuses to help Auntie, right?"
?? "What's the matter? Madam felt dizzy when she got up early today. Because there is a banquet at home today, she refrained from inviting the doctor. The lady said that to Madam, and Madam might be sad when she heard it."
"If the mother is really ill, and quietly invite the doctor to come in through the back door, as long as it doesn't affect the guests, who will say anything?" Xie Zhihui sighed, "Since the mother is ill, what about me as a child?" Can you disregard your mother's body?"
After Xie Zhihui finished speaking, she rushed into the main room without hesitation. As soon as she lifted the curtain, she saw Mrs. Xiao sitting at the table with a ruddy complexion drinking a bowl of lily lotus seed porridge. There were four or five side dishes and seven or eight snacks on the table. The dishes are almost eaten.
??Xie Zhihui looked at the empty plate and asked, "Did mother have breakfast with father this morning?"
Last night, the second master did not come to the backyard. Xie Zhongbai stayed in the front yard study room for the night because he was going to the office late. Early in the morning, he only sent someone to get his clothes, saying that there were still some things to deal with in the office, so he hurriedly I went there in a hurry, and finished it as soon as possible, so that I can come back to treat the guests.
Mrs. Xiao cast a reproachful glance at Tang Nanny, touched the corner of her mouth with a handkerchief uncomfortably, and then got up, "Why is Sister Hui here? You are not busy with your big sister, what are you doing here with your mother?" ?”
?? "It's a happy event for the entire Xie family that the eldest sister gets the title of county head. Today's family banquet, if the mother is still healthy, she will think more about the family and go to help the eldest aunt."
Mrs. Xiao was feeling uncomfortable because of this matter. After the Siyi Pavilion incident happened, Mrs. Xiao heard that the place was sealed off, and the long house was going to report to the officials. He just waited for today's banquet to pass, so he invited Shuntian Mansion to go to the scene in person. The investigation found the murderer, and it was said that the loss was 20,000 to 30,000 taels. She was so worried that she asked the accompanying wife who did that to take advantage of the darkness to clean up the whole thing. Who knows, the person who was hidden in the dark , caught it straight.
??Early this morning, after she heard about this, didn't she tremble with anger? I was holding a breath in my heart, how could I have the patience to listen to my daughter teaching her at this moment?
?? "Is there anyone in the world who talks to your mother like this? All the books you read have been read into the stomach of a dog?" Xiao's face could no longer hold back, and he became angry, slapping the table on the table, and said angrily.
??Xie Zhihui looked at Xiao Shi disappointedly. After watching for a long time, Xiao Shi felt chilly in her heart. She turned around suddenly and rushed out like the wind.
??Ms. Xiao was worried about her daughter, so she urged Madam Tang, "Follow me quickly to see how she is doing?"
The old lady and the second room pretended to be sick one after another, and the third room Qian also heard about it. When she got up early to make up, she asked her husband, "Mother and second sister-in-law obviously didn't intend to give the long room face. You said we followed the long room. Or look at the face of the old lady?"
Xie Shibai sat on the chair, put on his boots, and glanced at Qian as if he was a fool, "I heard a few days ago that the emperor wanted to call eldest brother back. Look at the old brother who has been away for many years, the father's face When did you ever get a little funny? If you are smarter, don't get involved in these things. I'm a worthless person. I just take care of these household affairs. I don't have much future in the future. I can only make a living with my elder brother eat."
??Ms. Qian glared at him from the mirror, "You are also a student after all, why can't you work harder to get a Jinshi exam? Find an official position in the future?"
?? "Do you think that if you pass the exam, you will be able to get a title on the gold list? I am not a material for studying. If it weren't for the ancestor's precept, the Xie family would not have a white man. I would not even take the exam. Do you want people to take care of the general affairs of the family?"
??Xie Shibai got up and adjusted his robe, a servant girl hurried in and blessed her body, "Third Master, the steward in front has something to see, please come over quickly."
After Xie Shibai left, Qian stood up helplessly, tugged at her skirt, "Let's go too, help my sister-in-law, and let's take a look, who are the guests who are here today? By the way, where is the third girl? Let her dress up well, don't get angry today, and help her big sister spend a day."
??Xie Zhiqian's penalty was not paid so quickly. However, the Xie family also has rules, if the person who is punished has something to do with the family, unless the head of the family specifically confesses, he will not be punished on that day.
??The Xie family generally doesn’t punish girls who haven’t left the cabinet very severely. Girls are all spoiled guests in their natal family. If they do something wrong, they will be punished, but it will never hurt their face.
?? What a shrewd person Mrs. Qian is, since Xie Zhiwei has won the favor of the palace, the guests who come today must be ladies and noble ladies. It is only good for Xie Zhiqian to show up more on such days.
??Nurse Ren followed behind and said, "The third girl has already passed by, she must be busy at the moment."
Mrs. Qian breathed a sigh of relief, and when she arrived in front of the big flower hall of Anfu Hall, she heard the woman in front hurriedly report, "Eldest lady, the young lady of the Prince Taiping's mansion is here, Mrs. Zeng and the eldest girl of the Ministry of Rites Shangshu's mansion are here." It's here too."
Qian Shi thought to himself, why did he come so early? Thinking about it again, Cui Shi, the second youngest mistress of the Grand Princess' Mansion, belongs to the Cui family, while Mrs. Zeng Haishi, the first wife of the Minister of Rites' Mansion, belongs to the Hai family, and they are all members of the four families. , it's normal to come so early.
??When Yuan Shi heard that it was these two people who came, she felt a little apprehensive, so she gave Qian Shi a hand, "Sister and sister, come with me to welcome you."
??Seeing that her daughter was still foolishly looking at the orchids under the eaves, Mrs. Qian called out, "Sister Qian, Miss Zeng is here, and you should come to welcome her too."
The three of them led a group of maidservants, all smiling and enthusiastically walking towards the Yimen Gate. They saw that the roads on both sides were decorated with cold orchids, black orchids and lotus petal orchids, which were pleasing in growth and elegant in color. Underneath, exudes a faint, elegant fragrance.
Just after passing through the hall, I saw a group of people head-on. Walking in the middle was Xie Zhiwei, who was dressed in imperial clothes. On her left was Young Mistress Lu from the Princess Taiping's Mansion, and on her right was Mrs. Zeng, followed by the second wife from the Princess Mansion. The girl Zhang Qinghan and the third girl Zhang Qingrong, and the eldest girl Zeng Yaoqi of the Minister of Rites.
