Of course Xie Songhua did not make a bet with Yu Ruzhuo. This person is completely elusive now. What is there to make a bet with even half a chance of winning?
"But today..." Xie Songhua said, looking serious, "I still want to thank you."
I don’t know whether it’s because it’s raining so hard that it makes people feel as if they’re being cut off from the world by the rain, or because I haven’t eaten at noon and I’m feeling a little dizzy now because I haven’t eaten.
Xie Songhua actually showed some rare sensibility, "Speaking of it, you and I are strangers. Although we are helplessly tied together, we are still two strangers after all. I don't even know what you look like."
She said and smiled, "But, I have been in Xie's house for so long, and you are the first person to defend me for me."
Yu Ruzhuo seemed to be stunned by what she said. After a while, he said calmly: "Where will your father be?"
Xie Songhua shook his head, "That's different. First of all, he is my father. According to ethics, he has the responsibility to take care of me.
Furthermore, he is the head of the family, and he is responsible for all matters in the family. What's more, in fact, you know best that his actions were not for me."
Xie Yuncang sided with Xie Songhua several times. Either Xie Songhua used some tricks, or the situation pushed him to her side.
Seriously speaking, it is indeed not really defending Xie Songhua.
Yu Ruzhuo fell silent, and the atmosphere became a little awkward for a while.
Even Xie Songhua himself felt that it was a bit too sensational, so he had to cough lightly and calm down the atmosphere, "But don't worry, I have always been a reciprocal person. If you are loyal to me, I am also a friend. You As long as I can do it, I will have no problem with it."
"Um."
Yu Ruzhuo returned to his usual cold temper, but Xie Songhua was used to it.
As for the strange phenomenon in the Summer Palace, we really couldn't pursue it the next day because the weird things there hadn't stopped yet.
For example, Mrs. Qi slept well in the middle of the night, and the lights in the room came on again.
Another example is when the flowers and trees in the yard move inexplicably.
Or, there is a maid who is walking on the road and suddenly falls down.
None of this has anything to do with Xie Songhua, because she and I have never set foot in the Summer Palace again.
At the same time, these things are too weird, even if the Qi family wanted to hide them, they couldn't.
Despite how calm Mr. Qi is usually, he was so frightened that he dared not sleep.
It had been raining for days and days, so even if I wanted to invite a spiritual master to come to the house to perform rituals, I would not be able to survive.
Such weird things magically stopped when Mrs. Lin's aunt arrived at Xie's house.
When Mrs. Lin's aunt came to Beijing with a pair of children, she also brought someone with her.
When everyone saw Xie Shuhua supporting Xie Wenyuan, the Lin family's aunt, as she approached the gate of Shou'an Hall, they could hardly control the shock on their faces.
Xie Wenyuan, however, suddenly didn't know. She just asked in confusion: "Didn't I send you a letter a long time ago saying that you would be arriving in Beijing in the next few days? Why are everyone so surprised when they see my aunt?"
Even Mrs. Qi couldn't help but be surprised. She suppressed her excitement to see her beloved daughter and asked in surprise: "When did my sister-in-law arrive?"
"Second sister-in-law is asking this..." Xie Wenyuan said with a smile, "You yourself sent your niece to pick me up at the inn, and you still want to ask questions like this?"
One sentence made Qi's face turn pale. She looked at Xie Shuhua in horror, but saw that the other party was not at all panicked.
Facing the visit of Xie Wenyuan and her children, the old lady didn't even have the slightest smile on her face, she just looked at Xie Shuhua with a heavy gaze.
Xie Wenyuan hurriedly said: "Shu'er must have written a letter to inform you of everything that happened on the way? Mother, don't blame me. Everyone knows that our family is not the kind of family that waits for the dragon to follow the phoenix, but meeting the third prince is really an accident.
Who could have imagined such a coincidence?"
There was so much intrigue in these words that Xie Songhua took a quick look and was immediately sure that no one sitting in the hall knew the story behind it.
Xie Tu reacted quickly. To avoid embarrassment, he immediately asked curiously: "Third Prince? What is this? Grandma knows, but we don't know!"
Xie Wenyuan sat down under Xin's mother's service, and glanced at the old lady again, "Mom, we are all one family, we can't hide this matter, it's okay to tell it!"
Xie Songhua just sat quietly aside, taking in the expressions of the old lady and everyone in the Qi family.
Good guy, Xie Shuhua used Xie Wenyuan to get everyone together.
Xie Wenyuan then explained everything in detail.
Xie Shuhua actually bribed the mother-in-law who was looking after her. She only said that she wanted to see her aunt and asked her to stay at the inn for two days.
Unexpectedly, within two days, I would meet the Third Prince and his entourage.
Under heavy rain, the Third Prince, who was traveling incognito at the Luojia Inn, developed a high fever and there were not enough manpower. Xie Shuhua stepped forward to lend a hand and helped the noble man just once.
When Xie Wenyuan arrived the next day, it was revealed that she had specially ordered her to wait for her aunt here. The third prince naturally knew the identity of Xie Shuhua, who was the third girl from Xie Ge's mansion.
She met the third prince and said that she was here to pick up her aunt. How could those people who were looking at her dare to say that she was going to be sent away?
The scandal in the Xie family cannot be revealed to the royal family.
Xie Yuncang happened to come in and listened to everything Xie Wenyuan said.
Xie Shuhua then saluted her father Yingying, "My aunt has already received her, so there is no need to worry about my father too much."
She actually wanted Xie Yuncang to admit her lie in front of Xie Wenyuan.
Regarding the punishment of Xie Shuhua, not many people in the government actually knew about it. First of all, Xie Yuncang didn't tell everyone directly, so Qi and others would naturally not take the initiative to tell others.
Secondly, it only lasted two or three days, and Xie Shuhua didn't come out for a few days. Some rumors leaked out, but in the end there was no time to confirm them.
But no matter what, Xie Shuhua did not show up in the mansion for several days, and there were rumors that she saw the carriage that sent her away, and the Qi family who chased her out crying.
So everyone knew very well that Xie Shuhua was telling lies with her eyes open at the moment.
Therefore, everyone's eyes were now on Xie Yuncang, wanting to see if the head of the family would admit Xie Shuhua's lie.
Xie Yuncang just stared at Xie Shuhua with a heavy gaze and did not say a word.
Xie Shuhua, on the other hand, still maintained the smile on her face, no different from her usual respectful and submissive image.
However, Xie Songhua clearly saw that Xie Yuncang's hands behind his back were clenched into fists, and he was obviously angry.
She sighed in her heart, and sure enough, she heard Mrs. Xie speak first, "Just got it. Your aunt has come all the way and walked such a long way. She is tired after thinking about it. Has her residence been tidied up?"
"
Mrs. Qi was overjoyed when she heard this, and almost couldn't help but jump up. Now she suppressed her excitement, forced herself to stay calm, and said with a smile: "It has been packed up a long time ago. I asked people to clean Mianqiu Residence.
After a while, I’m just waiting for my sister-in-law and niece to move in!”
He said with a smile and said: "I just feel wronged that my nephew lives with Erlang. When he learned that his cousin was coming, he refused to ask me to clean up another place and insisted on living in his yard."
"Very good," the old lady was very happy, nodding her head repeatedly, "Next spring, the two brothers will go off together, and now we can just discuss and learn together."
Mrs. Lin's aunt took her son to Beijing to take the exam, and by the way she took her daughter back to her parents' home to visit relatives. She wrote a letter after the Guipang came out.
The mansion had already made arrangements for the arrival of guests. The only thing that surprised everyone was Xie Shuhua's "resurrection".
After the reception banquet, everyone went back to their respective rooms, but Xie Tu stopped Xie Songhua, "I haven't seen you in the past two days, and I'm getting angry. Why don't you go and calm me down?"
