Chapter 191 He Zhi's face is wooden, her whole person is wooden
I had known that the Yue family would use these shameless methods, but when this moment came, it also made Mrs. Rong Guogong very angry.
The Yue family does have some cleverness.
They first controlled the public opinion in the city and prepared for the marriage. Even if Rong Ci later retreats and then marries the Yue family, the Yue family will still be able to stand on a high moral level, and the world will only say that the two finally got married.
Congratulations to both of you.
As for stealing other people's husbands, it is not an important matter. You may even step on others in turn, causing the girl's reputation to be ruined and ridiculed by others, and her whole life will be over.
Next, I came to find people from Rong Guogong's Mansion to talk things over. As long as Rong Guogong's Mansion was a little loose, the matter would be settled.
If the other party is not the Duke of Rong, and his status is lower than that of the Yue family, it is estimated that all kinds of inducements and pressures will be added, and things will definitely happen.
However, Duke Rong's mansion not only refused to accept this trick, but instead felt that the Yue family was like a disgusting insect, which annoyed them.
They fought against this world, and today's peaceful and prosperous age is due to their achievements. For this world, they have shed countless blood.
I don't want to live this wonderful peaceful life, and I actually want to die. Is it possible that I have some serious illness?
They have seen a lot of blood and a lot of dead people, and they are not so soft-hearted. If you want to live, you can live, if you want to die, you can die. Who cares?
Moreover, what they hate most is to be forced like this. The Yue family has simply touched their back.
"Let's go, I definitely want to listen carefully. What does your wife want to say to me?" Mrs. Rong Guogong snorted coldly and called her daughter-in-law to slap her in the face.
The maid sent by the Yue family was worried when she saw Mrs. Rong Guogong like this. She opened her mouth, but nothing came out.
Today, the Xie family is also very busy.
In the past, the Xie family was divided into nine branches. Eight of them went to other places. Only the direct branch of Mr. Xie's father stayed in the Imperial City with several common branches. Now one branch has returned to the Imperial City and came to the Xie family.
See you.
Mrs. Xie brought her daughter-in-law Wen and Xie Yixiao and Xie Zhu to meet the female relatives of this tribe. In addition, she also invited women and girls from several side tribes to accompany them.
Compared with this branch in the Imperial City, that branch has an astonishingly large number of people. Not counting those concubines who are not even qualified to enter the Xie family gate, there are nearly a hundred people including women and girls, direct concubines and concubines.
, the room was packed to the brim.
In the past, for fear of causing trouble, the Imperial City set up a rule that they could not take concubines, so there were no concubines. At most, the family could only have a few more children, and the number could not be said to be large.
Xie Yixiao looked at the commotion in the room. He could bear it at first, but after a long time, he felt his head was getting a little big.
Especially when these people knew that she was going to marry into Duke Rong's palace, they were all extremely enthusiastic towards her. The older woman held her hand and called her "niece" and "clan sister", while the younger ones were
People gathered around her, saying "aunt" and "aunt".
Although she was about to become her great-aunt, and the baby in Mrs. Wen's belly was already six months old, but when she saw a girl about her age calling her great-aunt, her whole face became numb.
Not only her face was wooden, but her whole body was wooden.
Mrs. Xie was talking to the head matron of that branch. Her maiden name was Xu. She was nearly fifty years old, and she was old enough to have her great-grandson. She had silver hair and a kind smile.
"Our group walked westward and kept walking until we arrived at Lizhou and settled in a place called Jinshan City on the far west side of Lizhou. Now fifty years have passed and we finally set foot there again.
Homeland."
"In the past, every family wanted to leave, but your grandfather refused to leave. Everyone thought he was too stubborn. If he stayed, wouldn't he be destined to die? Now it seems that he is right."
Although the Xie family is not as prosperous as the previous dynasty, it is still the family of a century-old clan. If you go out and disrespect anyone, you will have a place even in the court.
In addition to the late Xie Qingshan, the other three direct descendants of the Xie family, father and son, are a cabinet minister, a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, and a young minister of the Dali Temple. The father and son of the same family have never held such high positions, even in the previous dynasty.
There have been.
Even Xie Qingshan, who died young, was also a Tanhualang in the past. Before his death, he served as the imperial censor of Zuo Qiandu, the Imperial Procuratorate, with a rank of fourth rank. If he were still alive, he would be equally good.
Mrs. Xie smiled: "Everyone has his or her own destiny. You can leave or stay. If everything is fine now, everything will be fine."
Mrs. Xie knew in her heart that the Xie family could get to where they are today without knowing how much effort they put into it, how many looks they received, and how many heads they bowed. "Be able to bend and stretch" is not just the four words on paper.
The Xie family's wealth was donated, and all the surrounding courtyards were sold. When the court needed them to do things, they would do things, and when they were not needed, they would retreat.
Even for an outstanding son like Xie Jin, according to his ability, there was no suspense about winning the first prize. However, in the end, he only got a fourth place. The Xie family endured it. In order to integrate with the upstarts of the new dynasty, the Xie family also changed a lot.
, many things are no longer as family-style as they were back then.
Compared with other branches, this branch can be said to have endured hardships before becoming a master.
While others were squandering their assigned property, they gave up everything and started over, first to save their lives, then to make contributions to protect themselves, and step by step they got to where they are today.
"Yes, everyone has his own fate."
"The thirteenth in your family is about to get married to Rong Guogong's mansion. That is really a good thing. As for Rong Guogong's mansion, we have heard about it as far away as Jinshan City. Apart from the royal family, it is the best
They are an aristocratic family, if we marry them, it will be of great benefit to the Xie family."
"Thirteen is really a good thing."
After saying that, the old lady Xu glanced at Xie Yixiao, with admiration in her eyes.
Mrs. Xie said: "What ability does she have? Your Majesty's Holy Grace has chosen her. At best, she is just lucky. Sister-in-law, please don't praise her all the time. If you talk too much, she will lose her composure."
"Little girl, it's always like this."
Xie Yixiao showed an appropriate smile and looked like a girl with a gentle personality.
"It's good to be Thirteen. This is what caught His Majesty's eye. There is such an opportunity. Thirteen, we must not forget our sisters and nieces in the clan in the future. We are a family after all."
"I dare not forget the family." Xie Yixiao's expression remained unchanged, but she couldn't help but mutter in her heart. She would never forget the family, whether it was a direct branch or a side branch, as long as the matter was legitimate, if he really asked her to
Come on, she really won't ignore it.
But what she doesn't care about is the people of her branch. Let's forget about them. They are all branched out, their families are separated, and their blood lines are separated by thousands of miles, okay?
Mrs. Xie asked about their purpose of coming back this time: "Are you coming back this time to pay homage to your ancestors?"
Xu smiled and said: "No, we have moved our entire family back to the Imperial City. We have returned to our roots. We will have to trouble our younger siblings to arrange a place to live..."
