Mrs. Tai is really rich

Chapter 109
At dusk, the setting sun is lingering, the pavilion is covered by the twilight, and the spring breeze blows strongly from the mountains and streams, sending away the distinguished guests from the Duke of Yan’s mansion and the Prince of Yin’s mansion. The road to Qingshan is long and tortuous. Along the way, besides people, there is this wonderful thing that accompanied them. scenery.

The gauze curtain on the carriage was blown obliquely by the breeze, revealing a small corner inside the carriage, exuding a faint scent of powder.

The little girls scrambled to stick out their little heads, looking at the sunset and dusk, the quiet beauty of the mountains and forests.

Xie Haoan, who always loves to join in the fun, is now sitting in the midst of Xie Yi, Xie Yihua and other little girls, staring at these little girls, refusing to leave for a moment, he refuses to ride a horse outside, nor Watching the scenery with the little girls, he almost tied them all around his waist to be at ease.

Gu Ruosu, who didn't know what happened, looked at his youngest son's behavior, and couldn't help but put down the tea in his hand for the time being, and asked:

"An'an, what's the matter, what happened, you have to stare at these little girls, what's the matter? Can someone snatch these little girls away?"

Gu Ruosu just spoke casually, but unexpectedly, it hit Xie Hao'an's heart. When Xie Hao'an heard this, he immediately lowered his head unhappy and refused to speak.

Seeing Xie Hao'an's appearance, Gu Ruosu immediately realized that she might have said something wrong, but she was still at a loss, so she had no choice but to cast her eyes on Xie Ruqing for help.

But Xie Ruqing also shook her head in a rare way, expressing that she still doesn't know what happened.

Just when Xie Ruqing and Gu Ruosu were at a loss, Xie Yihan, who was still a little yellow-haired girl, held a cloth tiger in her hand and said in a childish voice:
"The little uncle is angry, the little uncle is unhappy, the sisters begged for a red lottery to find their brother-in-law, but the old man with the white beard said that the marriage of the sisters is not good, the little uncle is angry, and wants to set up a mess, but is stopped by the sisters down."

When Gu Ruosu and Xie Ruqing heard this, they looked at each other. In the end, Gu Ruosu patted Xie Hao'an's hand and comforted him:
"You child, you don't speak strangely, this kind of thing is just a reference, not necessarily accurate, which means that these little girls are still young and don't know what will happen in the future, so don't pay too much attention to it."

Xie Hao'an felt Gu Ruosu's comfort, and immediately complained to Gu Ruosu very aggrieved:

"Mom! I don't want to be angry, but you don't know what that old Taoist priest said, saying that our family's ideas are married late, and we can't get married when we are young. Husband and her will still be a combination of strong women and weak men!

He also said that our Jia Yihua will definitely have two relationships in this life, and one of them will continue the relationship and marry twice.I'm so mad! "

When Xie Hao'an said this, he was already filled with righteous indignation, and his eyes wanted to spit fire. Gu Ruosu hurriedly handed Xie Hao'an a glass of water, thought for a while and said:

"It's nothing, even if what the old Taoist said is true, think about it, An An, between a man and a woman, getting married early and getting married late are just small things, small things, it doesn't matter if men are strong, women are weak, women are strong, men are weak Yes, the important thing is that two people can love each other, and the most important thing is to love each other for a lifetime."

"However, these days, if a girl gets married late, she will be gossiped. I don't want to miss her being gossiped." Xie Hao'an still frowned.

"What kind of gossip, who dares to say it! Who dares to gossip about our family, I want to see, who dares to say it in front of our Xie family, let alone Yi Nian married late, even Yihua was confirmed by the old Taoist , how can it be possible to marry twice?

Besides, these days, many couples reconcile, or widows remarry, who dares to gossip!

If someone really dares to say such gossip, they have the ability to go to our emperor and queen to talk it over! " Gu Ruosu said indifferently, thinking that his son was a little unfounded.

It's not that Gu Ruosu is ignorant of the constraints and opinions on women in this era, but that she has discovered that this era is not as closed as the Qing Dynasty, with small feet and uncivilized. , is quite tolerant and open, even if there are still so-called shackles of the so-called general ethics, the status of men and women can be regarded as equal, and they cannot be reduced to the point of being deformed like master and servant
On the contrary, as long as the girls are strong enough and capable enough, they are not afraid of being angry at their husband's family. On the contrary, their husband's family may have to rely on women...

The girls of their Duke's Mansion are naturally very confident, as long as the Xie family does not fall, the girls of the Xie family will not be afraid of suffering even if they get married.

What Gu Ruosu could think of, Xie Hao'an, as a Juren, could naturally think of the stakes in it, but when he thought of the hexagram that the old Taoist gave Xie Yi, Xie Hao'an still said helplessly:
"Mother, that old Taoist gave our family the same fate as the Princess of Chu, Chu Xunyi. That Chu Xunwan has such a precious status, but in the end...
Other nephews and nieces, my son, I naturally understand that even if those fortunetellings are really accurate, the girls of our Xie family are not afraid, but...the only one who wants to sign off...son, I really..."

Gu Ruosu tilted her head. Although she has the memory of the original owner and has a certain understanding of this dynasty, she has "the hero of the world", "heroine hero", "bloodthirsty devil", "slutty shrew" and "the world" in the living population. The legendary princess of the Chu Kingdom, Chu Canran, who has multiple buffs superimposed on the "No. [-] Beauty", but she doesn't know much about it. Therefore, she opened her mouth to persuade Xie Hao'an not to think wildly, but suddenly, she didn't know where to start.

Xie Ruqing, who had been silent all this time, immediately sensed the embarrassment of her daughter-in-law, and said:
"It means that Chu Xunyi is Chu Xunyi, and the same signing may not necessarily mean the same fate. If you have the time to think about things that may not necessarily happen in the future, why don't you think about your own affairs first."

Xie Hao'an suddenly heard Xie Ruqing speak, and immediately sat upright and listened carefully to Xie Ruqing's words. Although Xie Ruqing's words were only a few words, it made Xie Hao'an suddenly enlightened.

Xie Haoan was about to say thank you Ruqing, but suddenly heard Xie Ruqing continue:

"Your good friends Qi Lan and Liang Liuqi are both painstakingly preparing for the imperial examination, but you... are still messing around at home. You are already a Juren now. If you go further, you can go to the imperial examination and study hard. , No, you can also be a Jinshi."

"A few years ago, I told you that I didn't want you to be an official because I was afraid that our family tree would attract the wind, but now, I don't want to continue to stop you. If you want to, go.

Otherwise, your mother only has you as a biological child. After a hundred years, you don't even have a daughter-in-law, let alone a son or daughter, and you don't even have an independent cemetery for burial. Your mother and I will have no peace under Jiuquan. "

Xie Ruqing's words are half-truth and half-false. It is true that he hopes that his child will be promising, but it is false that he insists on his child to make contributions. I know this child best. He is talented and should be born in the mountains and rivers, not in the temple.

When I said this this time, on the one hand, I just hoped that my son would not let his precious daughter-in-law suffer because of a few sticks, and on the other hand, I really hoped that my son could plan a little more for the future.

What Xie Ruqing was thinking, Xie Hao'an didn't know everything. At this moment, Xie Hao'an suddenly seemed like a cat whose neck was strangled by fate, and he didn't dare to speak for a long time.

Xie Hao'an himself has no intention of being an official. The thing he loves most in this life is to travel around the mountains and rivers. A few years ago, his father refused to let him go to the palace test. From a certain point of view, he obeyed his wishes Xinyi, I didn't expect that after a few years, my father suddenly changed his mouth and allowed himself to go to the scientific examination...

Obediently and quietly... My father is really fickle... It's just that he has suffered so much, and I don't know how to escape from this matter. After all... there are no parents in this world who don't want their children to go to hell. Official career, Guangzong Yaozu...

Even if my family is already a wealthy family, no one would think too little about adding luster...

"Haha...haha... this... Daddy, mother, the matter of the imperial examination, what you said is too sudden, my son, I really have no preparations... I still think carefully..."

Before Xie Haoan finished speaking, he was interrupted by a few girls who didn't know when they started watching the show. Just look, Xie Haoan's most beloved niece, Xie Yi, smiled maliciously and said:

"Grandfather and grandma, let's let the little uncle think about this kind of imperial examination slowly. The so-called getting married and starting a business, grandpa and grandma, why don't you marry a beautiful girl for the little uncle first, and come back when you become a family. I have established a business~”

"Yes, yes, little uncle, you are so beautiful, if you are willing to give us a younger brother and sister, you must be such a handsome little girl~"

"Puff, let's not talk about adding or not having younger brothers and sisters. If my little uncle marries a wife, who will he marry? Our little uncle is known as the number one gentleman in Kyoto. How many girls like our little uncle~

I don’t know if my grandparents really wanted to choose a wife for my uncle, and an aunt for us, what would they look like~”

"..."

"..."

The little girls teased Xie Hao'an one by one, and kept comparing which girl's background, appearance, talent, etc., and how well matched she was with Xie Hao'an. I heard that Xie Hao'an had never talked to anyone. The innocent boy's little face was almost red like a crayfish...

Hearing the words of the little girls getting more and more out of tune, Xie Hao'an stomped his feet unbearably, and said:

"You little girls, you are still young, and you still play jokes on me. Be careful if you suffer in marriage later, I... I... I am an uncle, and I won't come to your door to attend to you. ..."

Hearing this, Xie Yi immediately burst out and said:

"Little uncle, if you are really willing to let us be bullied and you don't care about it, then don't come, the big deal... At that time... let's go and complain to the little aunt... Let the little aunt deal with the little uncle, you... "

Xie Hao'an became more and more embarrassed... Pointing at Xie Yi, the little girl who was staggering with a smile, she didn't say anything for a long time, and finally knocked Xie Yi's head unbearably, and said:

"You little girl... dare to ask for a wife for me, make fun of me... you are too old to break ground! Be careful... be careful... you will bury you alive later!"

After finishing speaking, Xie Hao'an didn't give these little girls a chance to tease him at all, and immediately got out of the carriage and ran out to ride a horse...

Xie Ruqing and Gu Ruosu, who were sitting in the carriage, looked at each other, looked at the smile that was about to overflow from each other's eyes, and pointed to the seat where Xie Hao'an sat just now, everything was settled middle……

The sun gradually set on the top of the mountain, the stars gradually lowered in the vast sky, and the moon reflected on the river surface of the moat, showing the scene of an endless stream of carriages passing by.

When the moon gradually was half-hidden by the clouds that appeared from nowhere, the carriages of Duke Yan's Mansion and Prince Yin's Mansion separated at the intersection of a main street, and each went to their respective gates.

It was here that Gu Ruosu couldn't resist the deep drowsiness and fell asleep...

When the carriage slowly stopped at the main entrance of Yan Guogong's mansion, what Xie Haowen and others who had been guarding the door all along saw was that after everyone got off the carriage and returned to the mansion alone, Xie Ruqing was at the end, hugging Gu Ruosu , slowly got off the carriage...

"Father..." Xie Haowen hurried to Xie Ruqing, dismissed the people around, lowered his voice and saluted.

"Well, wait for a long time, go back, if there is something important, if you don't have to talk about it, tell me tomorrow, I will take your mother back to rest now."

"My son... I don't have anything important... I just want to meet my father and mother..." Xie Haowen looked at the back of Xie Ruqing who was about to leave, and said immediately.

When Xie Ruqing heard this, she stopped for a while and looked at her eldest son who was very similar to her and had the ability to bear everything on her own for a long time...

Xie Haowen restrained all the sharpness accumulated on his body and the aura of a superior over the years, and let Xie Ruqing look at him wantonly like an ordinary child...

"Your mother isn't angry with you, so naturally I won't be angry with you, so you don't have to be so cautious... The officialdom is like this, I don't care about you, I just hope you can grow up better..."

"Son, I really understand this matter...Father...please give me another chance..." Xie Hao asked sincerely with his head down.

"Your Majesty asked you to handle important affairs in the court. Now, don't be held back because of your children's love. Just do your duty well. If there is anything, the family can always make it clear later. "Xie Ruqing finally said softly.

"Nowadays, the southern barbarians are coming in menacingly. My son, I am quite worried about my father, and my son just intercepted the letter sent to our capital from the state of Chu today. What they imply... They also want to visit us in Dayong, and come to our court The person who visited was... the son is really worried about his father."

"You said just now that you have no official business, but you still talked about business with me." Xie Ruqing joked.

Xie Haowen was speechless for a moment, but then opened his mouth to defend himself, but Xie Ruqing shook his head and said:

"Forget it, let me just count you as caring about me, don't worry about it.

I already knew about this matter a few days ago, but you don’t have to worry, Chu’s trip was not to provoke a war, but just to confirm one thing, if they provoked a war, they would not send that person as an envoy. "

"But father... that man is in the court of Chu State, and he has a lot of energy. My son, I really don't know what is going on to make him turn his back on his mother's words and come to our Dayong..."

"That person is the only living bloodline of the princess of the Chu Kingdom. Because of this, the son is as precious as the mother, and he holds the Chu Kingdom's million-strong army in his hand, and his achievements are overwhelming...

Do you think there is anything that can allow that person to travel thousands of miles, delegate power to the emperor of Chu, and come to Dayong? " Xie Ruqing asked suddenly.

"Unless that person is not the only bloodline of Princess Chu..." Xie Haowen took a breath of air in a low voice.

"Go back and ask the soldiers in the city camp to call in a thousand more elite guards to surround the imperial city. This matter is quite important. Since the blood is in our Dayong territory, naturally, don't let the Chu people take it away easily... "

"Son understands..."

"Remember to be careful of the Wei family. For their own benefit, the Wei family will not abandon the interests of the people's livelihood..."

"..."

The father and son conspired again in a low voice, but when it came to the important point, even though there was no one around...but they were still on guard, for fear...that someone with a heart would find out, so they hurriedly stopped the topic and signaled Continue in the future...

But as the father and son brought Gu Ruosu into the mansion, Xie Hao'an, who had left for some reason and stayed in the corner, couldn't help but cover his mouth...

Immediately, taking advantage of the darkness, he ran outside...

Apparently...he was shocked by the sudden revelation of the world...and...it was because of this...that he ran out of his house...to the place where the person he trusted in his heart...to seek comfort……
