Xie Yixiao was deeply moved after hearing these words. The old lady had indeed planned for her wholeheartedly, for fear that she would be wronged, and that she would have a rough life in the future and have a bad life.
She reached out and hugged Jiang's arm and said coquettishly: "Grandma, you treat me the best."
"You, stop acting like a spoiled brat. Look at her white face. Take good care of your body. Grandma will be happiest." Seeing that her health had begun to improve in the past few days, Jiang was willing to treat her illness and no longer thought about Gu Zhixuan.
, feeling relieved.
She was unwilling to marry Xie Yixiao to Gu Zhixuan. Gu Zhixuan didn't have her in his heart, and Zhou also cared about her having no father and mother. Even though she could still protect her when she was alive, as she got older, she could still protect her.
He stayed with her for several years.
She had experienced the feeling of being alone in an empty house, and knew the pain and sorrow in it. She really didn't want her granddaughter to live such a life.
It is best to find a man who likes her and takes good care of her for the rest of her life.
"In two days, the Spring Festival will be announced. After the announcement, I will take my family to Yunzhong Temple to pray. If you feel better then, you can go too."
"Yunzhong Temple is a good place. It's quiet there. If you think it's good there, you can stay there for a month and come back when your second cousin comes out of the palace. Then you can pray in the temple. It's better than going to Zhuangzi to recuperate."
.”
One month?
Xie Yixiao calculated that Gu You would definitely not be able to come back in a month. No matter what Gu Yi in the mansion wanted to do, he would not be able to hurt the old lady's head, so he agreed.
"Then just follow grandma's advice."
Two days later, the results were released in Chunwei, and the imperial city became lively. People were talking about this matter wherever they went.
"Hui Yuan is Mr. Xie Jin of the Xie family and Xie Huaijin!"
"It's the eldest son of the Xie family!"
"As expected, Huiyuan is Mr. Xie Huaijin!"
"Master Xie is very talented!"
The Xie family is a scholarly family. It was a famous clan in the previous dynasty. There were several famous people in the family. The son of the family has always been good at reading. People in the world say, "You should study like the Xie family." It is not a joke. He was elected to the meeting.
Yuan, all the students were sincerely convinced and praised him.
Xie Yixiao received the message from the Xie family, and asked Mingxin to give the messenger a reward, and asked Mingjing what gift she would prepare for her eldest nephew to congratulate him.
Ming Jing said: "Why don't you give me some supplements? I told you that the girl feels sorry for the eldest son because he is tired from studying and gives him some nourishing supplements to replenish his body. It just so happens that the young lady is not pregnant just now and needs to be replenished."
"As for other gifts, there is no need to give them yet. Everything has not been decided yet. It is a little early to give gifts. After the palace examination, the eldest son wins the first place, and the Xie family should host a few tables. Then the girl will just give another big gift."
Xie Yixiao thought about it, so he said: "Then give me some supplements. Please go pick them up and take a trip for me."
"Slave, go get ready now."
"By the way, I'd better prepare two copies. I'll send one over to my eldest cousin."
Ming Jing paused for a moment, then asked her: "Where is the second young master?"
This time, both Gu Zhixuan and Gu Zhisong from Changning Marquis Mansion participated in the Spring Festival. Gu Zhixuan got fourth place and Gu Zhisong failed. When the inquirer came back, Gu Zhisong threw something on the spot and his face turned red with anger, which made it a bit ugly.
Xie Yixiao also paused for a moment. If Gu Zhisong was in a situation like this, if he gave him a gift, he would probably mark you down and say that you were humiliating him.
But if you only give one as a gift and someone finds out, they will also feel that you look down on him.
"Then I won't give it to you. My aunt and cousin probably don't want to accept my gift, so I'll prepare one and send it to Xie's family in person."
"yes."
The Xie family was in a state of celebration, and the Changning Marquis Mansion was also very happy. Jiang set up two banquets in the Shou'an Hall, and asked the masters of the house to come and have a drink, and treat it as a family celebration.
Xie Yixiao also went.
The elders were very happy, as if the haze of Gu You's escape from marriage had finally dissipated. Mrs. Zhou smiled with gentle eyes. Marquis Changning drank several glasses of wine and said that Gu Zhixuan had the same demeanor as he did back then. Mr. Jiang smiled happily.
Non-stop.
Aunt Xu, the second roommate, was beaten up and couldn't get up now, so of course she didn't come. Gu Zhisong was drinking sullenly at the side with a sullen expression on her face.
The second master Gu didn't care about this. With the good wine, he drank a few drinks and felt comfortable all over. Then he praised Gu Zhixuan for his greatness and toasted a few glasses to Marquis Changning. He couldn't see that his son's face was getting uglier.
.
Gu Yi poked at the fish in the bowl, feeling more and more unwilling to accept it. Why was it not her brother who got it, but Gu Zhixuan!
However, Jiang and the eldest brother pretended not to notice the dissatisfaction and anger of the second roommate. Those who needed to drink drank, and those who needed to eat ate food, so as not to make a fuss and ruin their good mood.
Two days after the banquet was held, Jiang took his family's female relatives to Yunzhong Temple to pray for blessings and stay for a few days. Gu Xiang, who was about to get married, also went with him, saying that the wedding things had been prepared beforehand.
Let her go and worship the Buddha and seek a perfect life.
On the way, Xie Yixiao accompanied Jiang in a carriage and asked Mingxin to tell some interesting things, which made the old lady giggle. Xie Yixiao was also laughing.
Jiang sighed: "Girl, you are quite interesting. The two things your mother prepared for you are pretty good."
"They're all pretty good."
Ming Xin is lively and lively like a magpie. Although her brain is a little hard to use sometimes, she is really good at making people happy and relieving boredom. Ming Jing is smart and careful, and can always get things done properly. Thank you for anything.
If you can't make up your mind, you can discuss it with her.
Jiang looked at the two maids with a smile. His eyes fell on Ming Jing's face for a long time, and his expression became a little confused: "Speaking of which, it seems that I have seen this girl Ming Jing somewhere? It's strange, she always feels familiar."
Xie Yixiao was surprised: "Does it look familiar?"
Ming Jing smiled and said: "Mrs. Tai is of course familiar with the slave. The slave is with the girl every day. Of course, Mrs. Tai can see her often, so of course she is familiar with her."
Xie Yi smiled and said: "No, grandma often sees it, so she looks familiar."
Jiang felt something was wrong, but she couldn't tell what was wrong. Seeing this, Xie Yixiao talked to her about something else: "Grandma, why don't we play Shuanglu? Gillian wants to play."
"Shuanglu." Jiang thought for a while and said with emotion, "I haven't played it for more than ten years. This is a game played by little girls. Grandma has stopped playing it a long time ago."
Xie Yi smiled and said: "What's the point? Who doesn't have a girl's heart? Besides, grandma is not old at all, like an eighteen-year-old girl. Mingxin, why don't you take out the chessboard and let me play with you?"
Grandma plays a game."
Mrs. Jiang was so happy that she coaxed her, so she started playing with her.
Replaying the games of girlhood felt like returning to that carefree age. Jiang was a little happy and a little emotional.
