Xiao Yu still looked at her like that, with a slight smile on his face, and Xie Songhua picked up the chopsticks again.
I don’t know what kind of chain reaction such an episode will trigger in the main courtyard, but this meal was a bit tasteless.
When the couple sat and read each other after dinner, Xie Songhua finally said, "What do you think of tonight's dinner?"
"What do you think?" Xiao Yu took the book away and raised his eyebrows at her.
Xie Songhua also put down the book, "Since this happened, I just wanted to ask the prince, how should I treat the people in the prince's palace when I live here? Which ones can I touch and which ones can't I touch?
, to what extent can I move, and do I need to say hello to the prince?"
Only by explaining it clearly will it be easier for her to act in the future.
If you encounter one or two people who are carelessly sent away, it turns out that they are important to Xiao Yu, and there will be a rift due to this, and it will not be easy to cooperate with them in the next few decades.
Xiao Yu thought for a while and then explained to her: "Most of the people in the house are orphans from the families of people who followed me on the expedition and did not come back. Either my brother followed me and did not come back, or my father died in the war.
There is no one at home.
There are also some children picked up in war-torn areas. I have a special place for these people. If I encounter a suitable opportunity, I will release them.
Some of them really couldn't live on their own, so we finally selected some and put them in the palace to give them a place to live, but..."
He paused, "But these people who come in are indeed trained, not just everyone is let in."
When Xie Songhua heard what he said, he hesitated for a while.
The emotions that are floating around in this house are not bought by people!
No wonder, there are so many people in this palace despite him being the only master.
In this way, I am afraid that just picking one up can have some connection with Xiao Yu himself.
She somewhat admired Xiao Yu. Such a coach could still do these things for these soldiers who died on the battlefield, but in this way...
It's a bit difficult for her to handle. Doesn't it mean that all the maids in the yard have to be sacrificed?
Probably seeing what she was thinking, Xiao Yu said again: "I'm just telling you the actual situation in this house. As for the things you are not allowed to use, what should you do?
Even if they are expelled from the house, there are still people outside who are arranging their lives. You don’t have to feel any burden. The people in this courtyard are all for you. If there is anyone who is disobedient, how did you deal with them at Yanchuntai in the past?
How can you still deal with it.
As for the others, if you meet those in charge, report it to Butler Huo. Except for those in the outer courtyard, you can do whatever you want."
These words were beyond Xie Songhua's expectation. She looked at Xiao Yu and said, "You mean..."
"I don't care much about the affairs in the backyard, but I will trouble you more in the future. And now that we are married, some of our personal relationships have to be transferred to your hands. There are many things and messy relationships, so you should take more care of them."
His tone was normal, as if he was asking her to help him with something.
But actually...
Doesn't this completely delegate power to her?
Thinking of what he said to himself before getting married...
At that time, she thought he was going to lock her in the backyard, but it turned out...
It turned out that I had made a mistake.
When Xiao Yu saw that she was silent, he just thought she was troublesome, "Of course, I heard that you used to like playing with medicinal materials in Xie's Mansion. If you think these things are too troublesome, you can leave them to your subordinates..."
"Oh no," Xie Songhua came to his senses, got down to the ground, and bowed to him seriously, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your trust."
Originally, the marriage she longed for most in this era was just like what she had said to Ye Rongshi before.
Marrying Xiao Yu was an accident. Now it seems that this accident is a beautiful accident.
It can be seen that prejudice is fatal.
"Um."
Xiao Yu seemed a little uncomfortable with this kind of interaction, so he casually agreed and went to the clean room to wash up.
As usual, Xie Songhua slept on the bed, and Xiao Yu made his own quilt and slept on the Arhat bed.
The next day was Guining's day, and he had to go out early in the morning as usual. Butler Huo had already prepared a bunch of gifts to take to the Xie family. There were quite a few things, which showed his sincerity.
All the errands in the Xie family have taken leave and are waiting at home...
Even Xie Yun and his wife came over.
Xie Songhua thought for a while and said, "If the prince cannot bear such social interaction and excuses something in the palace later, we can leave early."
Xiao Yu's willingness to come in person today was a great honor to her, and Xie Songhua was very grateful.
During this period of time together, I got to know his temperament to some extent. Not to mention the ups and downs of the Xie family, it was also obvious that he was not keen on various social activities in daily political affairs.
"I was just about to tell you, and it's not an excuse. There are indeed some military affairs that need to be handled. I probably can't have lunch here. It doesn't matter if you go back later."
When they entered Xie's Mansion, they saw a group of people waiting, and the two of them parted ways at the Chuihua Gate.
Although she is a princess today, she is more of an aunt from Guining of the Xie family, so the old lady did not come to the second door to greet her.
The An family, the Qi family and the Yu family are all the same.
As usual, they go to the Shou'an Hall to say hello first, and then the family members sit together and chat.
The old lady naturally asked about the affairs of the palace, and was very happy when she heard Xie Songhua said that the palace was indeed as clean as the rumors outside.
"This is a good thing. How many women are looking forward to a husband like this? Not to mention the identity and status of the prince. This is because the prince values you and our Xie family.
You must be more sensible. The most important thing is to get pregnant as soon as possible. If you give birth to the prince's eldest son, your position as the princess will be secure!"
Of course this was a sincere and kind word, but Xie Songhua could only laugh and mumble it.
Anshi said cheerfully, "How does the prince treat you? I thought he might not come today."
"Your Majesty is very nice, but it looks cold outside."
If there are too many, I won’t say more.
After chatting for a while, the old lady smiled and said, "You sisters, let's go have some fun! Let's have a family dinner together later, and I happen to have something to entrust to you."
Xie Songhua couldn't help but be puzzled by this nonsense, but the old lady obviously didn't intend to tell her at this time, which made Xie Songhua even more puzzled.
The group of people simply went to Xie Tu's house.
Xie Sihua seemed to be in much better spirits, but he secretly looked at Xie Songhua several times.
But given her temperament, if Xie Songhua didn't ask, she probably wouldn't speak.
But Xie Songhua didn't have that leisurely mind.
Mother Zhang came over with Brother An in her arms. The child was one and a half years old and could speak short sentences.
When he saw Xie Songhua, he wanted to give her a hug, "Sister, give me a hug!"
Xie Songhua always used to play with Brother An for a while when he came to Shou'antang. The child didn't know where he learned the trick of acting coquettishly. When he saw people close to him, he would yell for a hug, with a pair of round eyes filled with grievances.
Xie Yun said with a smile: "Speaking of it, it is fate after all. The third sister was living abroad. Who would have thought that there would be a day when she could be found again? Now not only has she been found back, but she has become the most promising among our sisters."
, just don’t forget to give your sisters a hand in the future!”
When she came here today, Xie Yun kept looking at her. When she got off the carriage, she saw her uncle winking at her.
Xie Songhua guessed that something was going on, and smiled and said: "There are no outsiders here, but we are just a few sisters. If the second sister has something to say, you can just say it."
