Until Xie Jun sent Princess Yongning away, Mrs. Xu was still a little unable to recover.
Princess Yongning... actually left like this?
He didn't get angry or take action against her mother-in-law, so he left just like that?
Xie Mingxi glanced at Mrs. Xu who seemed to be in a dream, and reminded with a smile: "Grandma, mother has left. I don't care about the spring peach and autumn chrysanthemum."
Mrs. Xu suddenly woke up and grinned: "Yes, yes, the princess is virtuous and generous, how can she be jealous of two maids?"
Although she couldn't figure out the reason for this, one very obvious fact could always be seen.
The couple Xie Jun and Princess Yongning are by no means the loving and harmonious couple imagined by outsiders. Most of the loving couple written in Xie Jun’s letters over the years are all fake.
Therefore, Princess Yongning only lost face, but actually didn't care about these two maids at all. This time, the thunder was loud and the rain was light, and there was no real action at all!
This also means that the Xie family's inner residence will be completely in her hands from now on.
Thinking of this, Ms. Xu was so happy. Looking at Xie Mingxi with a smile on her face, she was even more pleasing to the eye.
Since Xie Ming and others were all here, it was not appropriate to say more. Mrs. Xu took Xie Mingxi's hand affectionately and said, "Ming Niang, fortunately you came back in time. Otherwise, I would really feel a little embarrassed facing the princess."
Xie Mingxi smiled meaningfully: "Grandma is worrying too much. As a princess, how could my mother do something disobedient and unfilial?"
Princess Yongning was raised by Empress Dowager Li. She is arrogant and takes face very seriously. She would rather marry a weak-minded husband to cover up her special habits.
Such Princess Yongning would never let go of her pride and face the Xu family unless she was forced to the extreme.
To Princess Yongning, it doesn't matter whether they have two maids who live in the same house or not.
After coming here once, it can be regarded as an "account" for my mother's brother and sister-in-law.
Of course Xu didn't know the secret. However, for Xu, the result is more important than anything else! This is the result Xu is most looking forward to.
…
As expected, Princess Yongning returned to Xie's Mansion and never showed up again.
Mrs. Xu put her heart back in her stomach, and took advantage of Aunt Ding's grounding to grasp all the trivial matters in the inner house bit by bit. There is no need to go into details about how she made some private money from it.
In short, everyone in the second room is very united and is willing to have a good relationship with Xie Mingxi.
Mr. Xie also got two pretty maids. He spent every day admiring flowers, reading, drinking, drinking and sleeping with the maids, which was quite pleasant.
For a time, the inner house of Xie Mansion was peaceful as never before.
Chun Tao Qiu Ju was frightened for several days, and then she gradually felt relieved.
There are not many people in the Xie Mansion, and the food and clothing are much better than before.
Xie Jun is only in his thirties. He is also extremely handsome, gentle and considerate. To be able to serve such a master, the two of them are more than willing to do so.
When Xie Jun went out, everyone envied him. When he returned home, he was the master of the house and was in a good mood.
The only unhappy people in Xie's house are Aunt Ding and Xie Yuanting's mother and son.
Xie Yuanting was imprisoned for a month before he was released. He lost weight, and his eyes became gloomy and depressed. He really looked like he was seriously ill.
…
"Yuan Ting, you have been reflecting for a month, do you realize you were wrong now?" After a month, Xie Jun's anger has almost subsided, and his voice is still gentle.
Xie Yuanting knelt down and whispered: "Father, my son knows he was wrong."
Xie Jun snorted: "It's good to admit your mistake. You and Ming Niang are brothers and sisters. As an elder brother, you should love, care and cherish Ming Niang. In the future, when Ming Niang becomes successful, she will not forget you as my brother."
After a pause, he sighed earnestly: "Yuan Ting, you are my only son. As a father, how can I not care for you in my heart?"
"It's just that Ming Niang is really talented. She is indeed far better than you!"
"You don't know yet! In the second monthly exam, she got full marks again and ranked first. The results of all the students in Lianchi Academy were posted outside the academy. Ming Niang's results were far ahead, and no one else could. And Mr. Li Ge’s granddaughter is a famous author, and she only scored fifty-seven points this time, which is quite a bit worse than Ming Niang.”
"Not only do the ladies prefer her, but also Chief Gu and Queen Yu are very fond of her. She has become famous in the capital. Even if she is born as a commoner, she will be able to get an excellent marriage in the future."
"As an elder brother, you will have many opportunities in the future. Why do you hate her?"
After all, he was his only son. Xie Jun wanted to break up the truth and pour it into Xie Yuanting's ears: "Don't be stupid. From now on, lower your body to Ming Niang and show your kindness. You are brothers and sisters. She will never hold a grudge forever."
It's just that he didn't say directly, "If you want benefits, you have to lower your head and coax Xie Mingxi"!
However, Xie Yuanting was narrow-minded and had already blamed Xie Mingxi for all his bad luck. No matter how much Xie Jun said, he couldn't listen. Instead, he became even more resentful!
My father has been completely smitten by Xie Mingxi! He is devoted to Xie Mingxi!
"Did you remember what I said?" Xie Jun said, his mouth was dry, and he picked up the tea cup and took a sip.
Xie Yuanting responded in a low voice.
Xie Jun said again: "You can go to the academy today!"
Xie Jun didn't mention that Aunt Ding had been ill for several days, and Xie Yuanting didn't ask anything, just responded, got up and left.
The moment he turned to leave, deep hatred flashed across Xie Yuanting's handsome face.
…
After taking a month's leave and returning to the New Confucian Academy, Xie Yuanting was much more depressed than before.
No matter how diligently he studied, he could not compare to Xie Mingxi.
What's the point of trying hard?
After returning home, he pretended to review his books, but in fact, there was an idle book hidden under the book. The servant was waiting outside the study room. When Xie Jun came, the servant said hello. Xie Yuanting immediately put away the idle book.
After Xie Jun left, Xie Yuanting took out the Xianshu again.
Xie Jun was kept in the dark, thinking that Xie Yuanting was studying hard every night, and felt very happy. He smiled in front of Mr. I no longer make noises and fuss, and stay up late every night studying hard.”
Mr. Xie naturally hoped that his children and grandchildren would be successful. Hearing this, he smiled and said, "That's good."
After talking about Xie Yuanting, Mr. Xie reminded him again: "Hanxiang is the biological mother of Yuanting Mingniang. Even though she is a concubine, she must be given some dignity. She is ill on the bed, so don't ignore her. It chilled her heart."
Xie Jun was a little embarrassed: "It's only been more than a month since she was grounded for half a year. Now that I have lifted her grounding order, what should I explain to Ming Niang?"
With the new love, the old love will naturally be forgotten. Xie Jun has been living a comfortable life recently and has not thought of Aunt Ding at all.
There is no better son than a father.
Mr. Xie glared at Xie Jun: "I only asked you to go and see her. Who asked you to lift her ban?"
