Chapter 1114 Xie Hengnu Provincial Relatives (Second Update)
Xie Qian was sullen in Wenyuan Pavilion for a day, and in the afternoon, the Qianqing Palace suddenly said that the emperor understood the hard work of the cabinet scholars, and the night duty in the past few days was temporarily exempted, Xie Qian finally ushered in a rare vacation, and he was ready not to go home for a few days.

"What should I do to go back so early?"
Xie Qian thought with some annoyance, "Your Majesty listened to Liu Shiyong's words and thought that victory was in hand at this moment, but he never thought that if the battle situation at the border pass developed to the point described by Shen Xixiaoer, and Liu Shiyong was transferred away from the mountain, wouldn't the Jingshi be in danger?" But the emperor doesn't care, what do I care about it? ā
Angry in his heart, Xie Qian was angry, and he was perfunctory about the things at hand, so he cleaned up his mood and went home early.
The carriage stopped in front of the Xie Mansion, Xie Qian opened the curtain, and saw at a glance an emerald green soft sedan chair parked at the door, and the servants of the Shen Mansion were waiting beside him, and saluted respectfully after seeing Xie Qian.
Xie Qian's originally deep old face suddenly relaxed, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, his heart was relieved, his pace quickened a little, and he went straight back to his main courtyard.
Xie Fu was beaming, the family had not been so lively for a long time, and Xie Qian had never looked forward to going home so much.
Xie Qian didn't enter the main hall or study, but went directly to the backyard, and as soon as he stepped into the moon gate from the garden, he saw a tall and strong, stupid girl standing in the courtyard, looking into the house. Xie Qian glanced at the girl, and the girl nodded at Xie Qian, and greeted, "Hello, master!" ā
Xie Qian had a thought in his heart: When did there be such a girl who didn't understand the rules in the family?
Taking two steps forward, Xie Qian suddenly figured it out...... This girl is not her own, but the Shen Mansion maid who accompanied her little granddaughter Xie Hengnu back to save her relatives, but the Shen Mansion maid was so strong that she didn't look like a daughter's family at all, which couldn't help but make Xie Qian surprised.
Xie Qian was immediately relieved: "What's wrong with her, I'm here to see Xiao Jun'er, not to see her maid." ā
Xie Qian went directly to the room, Zhu Shan stood in the courtyard, and muttered in a low voice: "This old man looks a little kind, have I seen him before?" I greeted him, why didn't he ignore me? The young lady has been in there for a while, why hasn't she come out yet? What should I eat tonight......
The room was full of joy, the pregnant Xie Hengnu blushed, and the whole person was filled with a vigorous vitality, this was the first time Xie Hengnu returned to the capital to return to Xie Fu Province.
Mrs. Xu took her daughter-in-law Shi Xiaojing to the Shen family once, gave some things politely, and explained a few words to Xie Hengnu.
Xie Yun'er felt that her sister had been depressed, and knew that Xie Hengnu was depressed without her husband after she was pregnant, so she asked her to go back to the house to have a look.
Xie Hengnu had been living in Xie Mansion until he was fifteen years old, and if he couldn't go back to his parents' house to see it when he returned to the capital, it would be too cruel for the little girl.
"Jun'er is really well-behaved, sir...... You're back! ā
When the family gathered, Mrs. Xu finally found the feeling of being a housewife, she saw her husband, her eyes lit up, and she quickly took the little granddaughter's hand and came to her husband, with a happy face, "Master, look at Jun'er, a few years ago she was still a cute little girl, jumping around her knees, and in a blink of an eye, she was pregnant and wanted to be a mother, time flies so fast!" ā
Xie Qian's concubine Jin sat on the side with several sons, looking quite low-key. Shi Xiaojing hugged her grandson, and together with Xie Pi, she hugged her adoptive mother Xie Men Lu, and listened to Mrs. Xu and Xie Qian's conversation.
The family was happy, Xie Qian was very satisfied when he saw this scene, but as the head of the family, he had to be reserved, he had just raised his face, but as soon as his eyes fell on the face of his little granddaughter, he couldn't move it anymore.
Xie Qian cleared his throat and said quietly, "Jun'er, are you back?" ā
"Yes, grandfather, I went to Guangdong with my father-in-law, and not long after I returned to the capital, my wife asked me to come back and have a look, and I left before dark!"
Xie Hengnu said coquettishly.
Xie Hengnu has a deep attachment to her mother's family, after all, she is a little girl, although her heart is full of attachment to Ruyi Langjun, but she can't forget the care of her mother's family.
Among his mother's family, Xie Hengnu is the closest to Mrs. Xu. Xie Qian is rarely at home, and he always has a straight face and is not close to people on weekdays, although Xie Hengnu respects his grandfather, but he is a little less warm, this reunion after a long absence, Xie Qian has a straight face, no wonder Xie Hengnu will answer with a slightly coquettish attitude.
Xie Qian frowned and said dissatisfiedly: "It's rare to go home, you always have to stay overnight and leave again, go back before dark, what are you like?" Shen Xi ......"
Xie Qian wanted to scold "Shen Xi'er can't do things", but suddenly thought that Shen Xi was still in Xuanfu at this time, and the matter had nothing to do with him, so it seemed that he was the wrong person. Moreover, Shen Xi is the husband of the little granddaughter, and scolding the grandson-in-law in front of the little granddaughter is too bad at being a person.
Mrs. Xu hurriedly said, "Master, it's good that Jun'er can come back and take a look." Mrs. Shen is a sensible person and is very good to Jun'er, as the wife of the Shen family, Jun'er should naturally take the Shen family as her home. We hope that her family is harmonious, where can we hope that she will come back more? Even if Jun'er wants to stay overnight, we can't accommodate her, lest others gossip. ā
"The concubine thought that the master would not come back today, but she sent someone to inform the master before, but she didn't expect the master to come back...... It's really surprising. ā
Mrs. Xu kept talking, Xie Qian felt upset for a while, but he didn't get angry, after all, what Mrs. Xu said was reasonable, she hoped that her granddaughter would be well, so she shouldn't want her granddaughter to return to her parents' house often. In this era, the daughter who married out spilled the water, and the daughter always went back to her parents' house, it is definitely not a good thing, and she will be poked in the back.
Xie Qian's face was expression, and he snorted coldly: "What's so strange about coming back?" The palace is deserted, how can you be at home at ease, uh...... Does Madame have dinner ready? ā
"Master, isn't this just arranging for someone to prepare? There are still servants and maids of the Shen family outside the mansion, why don't you call them in together and be hospitalized? ā
When Mrs. Xu saw her little granddaughter, she felt that the Shen family was very good at doing things, so she reciprocated, in addition to planning to entertain the servants and maids of the Shen Mansion to send Xie Hengnu back to her parents' house, she was also going to send some gifts to Xie Hengnu, so that she could take them back to the sisters at home.
Although Mrs. Xu can't get her husband's love, she is the head of the Xie family, Xie Qian basically doesn't touch money, even if the Jin family can get more pampered by Xie Qian, but she can't get the right to speak in the Xie family's house.
Xie Qian nodded: "Okay, then let's arrange it like this." ā
ā¦ā¦
ā¦ā¦
The Xie family was in harmony, and there was constant laughter and laughter.
In the front yard, Zhu Shan and two palanquin men who sent Xie Hengnu were entertained by the housekeeper of Xie Mansion. At the dinner table in the inner courtyard, Xie Hengnu's pregnancy became the focus of women's attention, and the topic mostly revolved around this. Mrs. Xu kept asking for warmth, for fear that her granddaughter would be inconvenient in the Shen family, so she didn't dare to tell the family.
Xie Hengnu said: "Grandmother, you can rest assured, Jun'er is fine in the Shen family, just ...... The seventh brother has been out of the house and can't see anyone, but the lady said that the seventh brother will come back soon! ā
Xie Hengnu will consciously change his name for Xie Yun'er outside, because Xie Hengnu's identity is a concubine, and her status in the Shen family is not high, but the Shen family basically treats the maid well regardless of the priority and inferiority, not to mention Xie Hengnu, who was born in the Prime Minister's Mansion and has a very close relationship with Shen Xi?
When Shen Xi was mentioned, the family couldn't help but look at Xie Qian.
No one else knew the situation after Shen Xi went on the expedition, after all, Shen Xi's leading troops involved secrets in the army, and the return date naturally needed to be kept secret.
Xie Qian said coldly: "Shen ...... Your father-in-law is now making contributions at the border, don't worry too much, there is nothing to do for the time being, and it is estimated that you will be able to come back in this month or two. When you go back, you can raise your baby with peace of mind, at the latest...... By the end of the year, this war is not expected to take too long! ā
Xie Hengnu heard Xie Qian's answer, nodded with satisfaction, and a happy smile appeared on his face.
When she returned to Xie's house, in addition to saving relatives, she also had a purpose, which was to help the Shen family inquire about Shen Xi's situation, after all, these news could not be learned from other channels.
Although Xie Qian didn't say much, he was basically sure of two things, that is, Shen Xi was safe for the time being, and then the border war was about to end, and Shen Xi was about to return.
Xie Hengnu is smart and clever, after analyzing these two points, he smiled, and confidently went back to tell his sister that the whole family would be happy, and she was the hero of the Shen family at that time.
Not only can he go back to his parents' house to see the grandmother, uncles and aunts, and relatives of the Xie family, but he can also complete the task and go back to explain, Xie Hengnu felt a little more satisfied in his heart.
Mrs. Xu seemed to notice her granddaughter's happiness, and as she grew old, she became more and more shrewd, probably guessing her granddaughter's thoughts, and couldn't help but help her granddaughter ask a few more questions: "Master, Lord Shen is at the border...... Where? I wonder how the errand went? Does the imperial court have a fixed return date? ā
Xie Qian wanted to say, where else to ask, out of Juyong Pass did not go far at all, it would only take six or seven days to return to the capital, just such a short trip, the stinky boy actually walked for a month, at this time he actually made a false report of the enemy out of nothing, and was almost held accountable by the emperor and the court!
But seeing the little granddaughter's expectant expression, Xie Qian hesitated for a moment, and smiled: "The errand is well done, Your Majesty has a lot of rewards, the war in the northwest is about to come to an end, he wants to come back, maybe it is the winter moon." ā
Before, it was said that it was the end of the year, but now it is directly said that it may be a winter moon, and the time is equal to more than a month in advance, Xie Hengnu knew it in his heart, and did not interject, but he silently wrote it down in his heart, and was ready to go back and talk to Xie Yun'er.
A family banquet was eaten for more than half an hour.
Xie Qian didn't say anything like before with a straight face, "eat without saying anything", because he himself had a lot of things to ask Xie Hengnu, and the people at the table were all putting vegetables into Xie Hengnu's bowl, even if Xie Hengnu was a pregnant woman, she couldn't eat so many things at one time.
"Eat more!"
Mrs. Xu was still putting vegetables in Xie Hengnu's bowl, and she was looking for that kind of fatty meat, "Eat well and eat well, so that you can give birth and raise, don't worry about being fat, I will give birth to your second uncle when I ......"
"Uh-huh!"
Xie Qian heard that his wife was off topic, so he quickly cleared his throat and reminded him slightly.
Only then did Mrs. Xu change her words: "When you are full, you have the strength to work!" ā
