Regarding Butler Kong, who was about the same age, Xie Guangde did not hesitate to smile: "Okay."
He glanced at the facade of Tantai Mansion and said sincerely: "It's really big!"
After all, the Xie Mansion in Yangzhou is an old house that has been hundreds of years old. The single-wheel gate is really not as good as the wealthy merchants, but in terms of the foundation, the Tantai Mansion is far behind.
Under the leadership of Butler Kong, Xie Guangde stepped into the Tantai Mansion, but unexpectedly stumbled. Fortunately, Butler Kong stretched out his hand to support him.
"Old man, be careful."
Xie Guangde said: "This threshold is really high."
Butler Kong smiled and said: "Since the young master became the governor, the young lady asked people to raise the threshold seven inches and seven. People in the mansion often tripped and fell at first. Old Master, you often walk around, and you will gradually get used to it."
"Okay, okay."
When Fu Xie saw that his grandfather was polite to others but so indifferent to himself, he smiled bitterly. He must not be angry with me.
"Son."
A clear female voice came out, but it was Xiaoxian Xiaoya. Xie Gu smiled and said, "Why are you two girls here too?"
Xiaoxian responded: "The master asked me to come with him, saying it would be convenient for me to take care of the young master."
Saying this, Xie Fu knew what was going on and said with a smile: "Let's go in."
"Sir, I miss you so much."
…
"grandfather."
Tantai Heqing was greeted at the gate of the inner house.
Seeing Tantai Heqing, Xie Guangde's tight and serious old face immediately smiled and said: "Heqing, grandpa misses you so much."
If Fu Xie heard this, he would never believe that his grandfather would say such disgusting words.
When the two got close, Tantai Heqing took the initiative to hold Xie Guangde's hands. In terms of interpersonal communication, Tantai Heqing never disappoints people.
Xie Guangde patted the back of Tantai Heqing's hand, looked down at her swollen belly, and said softly: "Heqing, thank you for your hard work."
"What are you talking about, grandpa, come on, I'll help you in."
"No, no, no, you're pregnant, I'd better support you."
The two of them were humble to each other, and finally Tantai He smiled affectionately and said: "Then I won't help you. Grandpa, just walk slower."
"He Qing, you too."
Xie Guangde greeted Tantai Heqing with a flurry of greetings and asked him about his basic necessities, food, clothing, housing and transportation.
I heard that Tantai Heqing suffered from severe morning sickness and would vomit after eating, which made her very distressed.
At this time, a sweet and clear voice floated: "Grandpa."
"Ah, Xianting, grandpa misses you so much, come here quickly."
Xie Guangde liked both of his grandsons-in-law very much. If he liked whom he liked more, he could only say that they were indistinguishable.
After also greeting Gu Xianting, he gently looked at Gu Xianting's lower abdomen.
Tantai Heqing and Gu Xianting both knew it well, but did not speak.
"Xianting, is that bastard often away from home?"
"My husband is always busy with official duties."
"Then does he hurt you?"
This question made Gu Xianting blush and said softly: "It hurts."
"Xianting, you can't lie to grandpa. You have a training tool in your hand. You can train him when he needs to be punished. He should be beaten when he should be beaten. He will never dare to resist."
Xie Guangde probably taught Xie Fu his habit, and Tantai Heqing reminded him softly: "Grandpa, my husband is now a second-rank official. You can't say this in front of others. Let's go back to the house to talk first."
Xie Guangde was secretly happy when he saw that Tantai Heqing was so partial to Xie Fu. How should I put it, since he was used to Xie Fu's cynicism and lack of success, it was still difficult to turn this corner. He always felt that the Xie family had taken a huge advantage.
After receiving the wind and washing away the dust, Tantai Heqing was in the reception hall again in the afternoon, asking the servants in the house to meet the old man one by one.
He respectfully called the old man and took a reward from Xie Guangde.
The reward was also prepared for Xie Guangde by Tantai Heqing a long time ago. The thoughtful Xie Guangde felt that if he had married Tantai Heqing, his granddaughter-in-law, the old man would not have to worry about this and that every day.
In the future, Tantai Heqing will be able to take over the position of head of the Xie family.
Because of Xie Guangde's arrival, Tantai Mansion became more lively and happy...
Every household, poor and rich, was full of joy, and the Yuyuan area was also very lively.
There was heavy snow in the sky, and there was already a layer of snow on the ground. The lanterns in the garden lit up at some point, and the red light competed with the white snow, creating a sweet red light.
The maids all put on bright red new clothes that represented the festival and were immersed in joy.
Only Mrs. Wang is wearing a fox-white cloak, and the white of her body blends with the white snow, like a snowflake fairy.
The north wind was blowing, and a few snowflakes fell on her black hair and fluffy fur collar, adding a bit of fairy air.
The calm figure exudes endless elegance. Although she is not wearing makeup, her beauty is unparalleled in the world.
The silent Mrs. Wang looked at the joy and bustle in front of her, as if everything had nothing to do with her.
Since she entered the world, everything has nothing to do with her. Wanzhi is not her child, Wang Zuoda is not her husband, and the Jinling Palace is not her home...
Haven't we always been like this, but this year I feel particularly sad.
It must be very lively over there.
At this moment, I began to regret that I refused so readily that day.
Why!
The maidservant's voice came: "Madam, Mr. Xie insists on breaking in!"
Mr. Xie walked in the snow holding an umbrella, with snowflakes on his face and breathing hot air with a smile.
Surprisingly, he did what he thought he wouldn't dare to do. He didn't do what he thought he could do.
Sima Yuntai smiled as proudly as a plum blossom.
Xie Fu came to her and held an umbrella for her: "Madam, the sedan is ready, please."
Sima Yuntai smiled: "Aren't you afraid?"
"I'm afraid I won't come."
Sima Yuntai took a step lightly, and her embroidered shoes left a gentle footprint on the ground. However, the snowflakes did not fall on her body. Someone held an umbrella for her.
Until he got on the sedan chair, Sima Yuntai was still dizzy, as if he was drunk.
The sedan was very stable, but Sima Yuntai could clearly feel that it was moving, and suddenly she felt like she was getting married.
Everyone was reunited at home, and the once bustling streets became extremely quiet, so much so that Sima Yuntai in the sedan felt like she was walking on a deserted wilderness.
Curious, she opened the sedan curtain and found that there was indeed no one on the street.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Xie Fu Jing did not sit in the sedan chair, but sat on one side of the sedan chair, following the fast pace of the sedan chair bearer and keeping pace with the sedan chair.
The wind and snow were very strong, and snowflakes kept blowing on his face. The hot breath quickly melted the snowflakes on his face, so that his face looked like he was dripping with sweat.
Xie Fu asked softly: "What?"
Sima Yun Taijing smiled shyly and gently lowered the sedan curtain.
When he arrived at the gate of Tantai Mansion, Xie Fu stretched out his hand and asked Sima Yuntai to help his arm get out of the sedan chair.
The auspicious snow jade dust, the long snow covers the entire city of Suzhou, and the lanterns are first put on like the snow glowing red.
A pair of red lanterns stood at the entrance of Tantai Mansion, glowing with fiery red candlelight, as if to welcome her arrival.
The bustle of Tantai Mansion seems to be able to tolerate everything, and the special day of New Year's Eve also seems to be able to tolerate everything.
No one felt anything wrong with Mrs. Wang's arrival.
In the hall, Tantai Heqing and Gu Xianting stood up first, and others followed suit and looked at Sima Yuntai, who had a graceful posture and an unparalleled appearance.
Facing the public gaze, Sima Yun, who never knew what nervousness was, felt nervous during the competition.
Could he be...
Thinking of this, Sima Yuntai's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, pounding wildly, and sweat oozed from his palms.
Under this kind of tension, every step becomes exciting and timid.
"Madam." Tantai Heqing and Gu Xianting greeted each other first.
Xie Guangde also saluted respectfully: "Mrs. Wang."
In terms of seniority, Xie Guangde is one generation higher than Mrs. Wang, but in terms of status, Mrs. Wang does not know how much higher she is than Xie Guangde.
In the face of superiority and inferiority, seniority can be completely ignored, just like ministers who are seventy or eighty years old have to kneel down and kowtow when they see a young queen.
Sima Yuntai could feel that she was the most noble woman present, and Xie Fu also placed her in such a position.
But when she and Xie Guangde were placed in the upper position, Sima Yuntai felt faintly unhappy.
She also understood that today she came to Tantai Mansion as Mrs. Wang. After the tension was relieved, she was replaced by inexplicable loss.
She had already planned to risk everything just now. As long as Xie Fu dares to risk the disapproval of the world, she will follow him no matter how the sky changes, the earth cracks, and the mountains and seas churn.
After Sima Yuntai sat down, other people sat down one after another, but Xie Fu stood up and looked towards Sima Yuntai.
Under his gaze, Sima Yuntai's heart beat violently again, not excited but nervous. The warm eyes a moment ago turned extremely cold, warning Xie Fu not to act recklessly.
After all, calmness is better than excitement. If Xie Fuzhen opens his mouth, he will be finished.
Under the warning from Sima Yuntai's cold eyes, Xie Fu's face turned into a flat lake.
"Today is the New Year's Eve dinner for our family inside and outside. I would like to introduce it to you here in a grand way."
Xie Fu said that the family had a New Year's Eve dinner, which meant that she was also a member of the family. Sima Yuntai's heart really wanted to jump out of her chest, and the socks inside her shoes were suddenly wet with secret sweat.
He pointed at Sima Yuntai with flat palms: "This is the wonderful woman Sima Yuntai that I admire, admire and admire the most."
Hearing Xie Fu read out her name directly, Sima Yuntai's mind suddenly exploded, and everything turned white.
Xie Fu smiled and looked at Sima Yuntai, but Sima Yuntai was so stunned that he didn't react at all.
"Madam, please forgive Mr. Xie for offending you by using your name. It's all because I have feelings to express, and calling me by my name can do that."
In fact, if Xie Fu didn't say it out, not many people present would know her name. Given her noble status, the world would only dare to call her Mrs. Wang, Sima.
However, Tantai Heqing and Gu Xianting were a little curious. Wasn't Mrs. Wang's name Sima Yunxue? They thought that Xie Fu might be nervous and called her by the wrong name for a moment.
Or maybe Yuntai is Mrs. Wang's cousin, and Xie Fu was thoughtful at this moment and even used the honorific title.
A woman's calligraphy is no louder than a man's calligraphy, especially after getting married, it almost disappears.
Xie Fu continued: "When Xie Fu was blind, he couldn't take care of himself. It was Madam who sent people to take good care of me. It was also Madam's kindness and kindness that healed my eyes, allowing me to see the light again."
Tantai Heqing and Gu Xianting were shocked that Xie Fu had experienced such a thing.
