Chapter 36

Xie Haoyuan had just handed over the official duties in his hand and went to the capital to take up his post. It was a good time to rest and take a bath. A large family and a few capable maidservants came to greet Xie Ruqing and Gu Ruosu.

Entering the main hall of Hefeng Hall, Gu Ruosu and Xie Ruqing had already been sitting at the top and waiting for them. Xie Haoyuan and Wei respectfully greeted Xie Ruqing and Gu Ruosu, and after getting permission, they sat on the two square chairs at the bottom Then, let a few girls salute the two "ancestors".

Xie Haoyuan has three daughters in total, among which the most favored Miss Pan is the one standing at the front. She is dressed in plain clothes and skirts, with a graceful figure and a gentle temperament. She also has a good appearance, with snow-white skin, willow eyebrows and red lips. There are tears in a pair of peach blossom eyes, and they are three points delicate, which makes people feel five points pity.Behind Pan Xiaoniang is Yu Xiaoniang, who was of humble birth and mediocre appearance, but spoke authentic Wu Nong soft language. She was originally the daughter of Xie Haoyuan's wet nurse, and her father was a pillar of the stage. Xie Haoyuan's wet nurse refused her daughter to marry a farmer after the unusual affection, so she begged Xie Haoyuan by virtue of affection, and became a young lady. She was honest and responsible, and respected Xie Haoyuan and Wei's family in everything. She was an honest and responsible person. Standing at the end is Cheng Xiaoniang, who was originally a good daughter of a farming and studying family. Her family was in decline, and she was carried back by the Wei family. Zheng Erba passed through Ming Road and became a good concubine. Compared with the lotus flower, then Cheng Xiaoniang's beauty should be the gorgeous peony, a pair of phoenix eyes and hanging willow eyebrows, with a seven-point charm, red lips like red, delicate and charming, pear dimples on the cheeks, peach pink Luo The skirt complements her charming appearance even more.

"The concubine is for the Duke of the country, the wife of the Duke, please be well, the Duke and the wife of the country are safe."

"Get up, get up."

"You step forward." Gu Ruosu pointed at Pan Xiaoniang and said.

[Bitch, you must be my favorite. ] Seeing Gu Ruosu yelling for someone to move forward, Wei's heart was agitated.

"Yes." Pan Xiaoniang was like a frightened little animal, her face was pale, she stepped forward cowardly, and gave Wei Wei another blessing.

"What are you afraid of? I won't eat you." Seeing Pan Xiaoniang's trembling appearance, Gu Ruosu couldn't help but speak out. In fact, Gu Ruosu was just asking ordinary questions, but in Xie Haoyuan's eyes, it was his mother who was about to start making trouble. It's a precursor, but it's no wonder Xie Haoyuan has such an idea, after all, the one from the second child's family was spoiled by the original owner.

Xie Haoyuan was about to speak for Pan Xiaoniang, but the Wei family held Xie Haoyuan's hand fiercely, and Xie Ruqing, who was sitting in the seat, also pretended to inadvertently cast a glance at Xie Haoyuan. I was going to figure out how to comfort Pan Xiaoniang later.

"I heard that you gave birth to a pair of twins for the fourth child?"

Pan Xiaoniang really didn't expect that the question Gu Ruosu asked would be this, it was an unexpected question, could it be that there was some trap waiting for her?Pan Xiaoniang thought so in her heart, but she still replied honestly: "Yes, the concubine is blessed by the fourth master, so she can give birth to a dragon and a phoenix for the Xie family. This is the blessing of the ancestors."

"Oh, what kind of ancestor's blessing? You are the one who suffers the pain of giving birth, not the fourth child. It should be very difficult for you to give birth to two in one go. Remember to eat more. Although Ruoliu Fufeng is very beautiful , but it looks like a bamboo pole, how heart-wrenching it looks~"

"Fourth, you have to change your aesthetics. You always say that women are the ones who please you. Look at the girls in your room, all of them are as thin as bamboo poles~ It's too bad."

Everyone: ... [It seems that this development trend is wrong? ]
Xie Ruqing: [Well, it's my wife's style. ]
"My son knows, and my son must follow his mother's instruction." Xie Haoyuan put a question mark on his forehead, but it's a good thing that Gu Ruosu didn't make things difficult for Ms. Pan, so he didn't care about thinking so much, and immediately stood up and said.

"I heard that you have a lot of children, so come and let me meet you."

After the girls saw the ceremony, a group of children rushed forward with the servants to pay their respects to Gu Ruosu and Xie Ruqing. The five elders and the seventh thanked Changliu. Among the four children, apart from Xie Yihua, although Gu Ruosu often heard Xie Yihua talk about it, it was the first time they had seen each other. Standing behind Xie Yihua, Xie Changbai About ten years old, with a handsome face and three points like his uncle Xie Hao'an, but with a serious expression, a precocious young man with the appearance of an old judge, the only pair of eyes are still youthful; Xie Yimian, who is a head shorter than Xie Changbai, has a small comb Wearing a pair of taupe-colored velvet flowers and two butterfly gold ornaments made of gold thread, wearing a bright pink brocade dress, she has a lively demeanor, standing casually, and her eyes wandering around curiously. At first glance, he looked spoiled, but as for Xie Changliu, he was still young, and he was very festive in his Fuwa costume.

"Grandson greets grandparents." Xie Changliu's reaction was half a beat slower than that of all the brothers and sisters. After the other three children finished greeting, Xie Changliu spoke in his unique little milk voice.

"Puff." Xie Yimian couldn't help laughing when she saw her particularly "stupid" brother, and then covered her small mouth as if covering her ears.

Xie Haoyuan and Wei frowned one after another, and went to look at Xie Yimian's wet nurse. The wet nurse felt her master's gaze and immediately lowered her head, feeling guilty for a while.

But fortunately this was just a small episode, Gu Ruosu and Xie Ruqing didn't take it seriously, they just heard that Xie Changliu had been ill for a long time, and felt a little distressed, a child suffered such a serious crime at a young age.

"Grandson/Granddaughter send greetings to grandparents." The ones who spoke this time were the children of the concubine, namely, the dragon and phoenix twins born to Pan Xiaoniang, Xie Changxiang and Xie Yishu who were the third and fourth children; Xie Changyou, the second-ranked son, and Xie Yixian, the sixth daughter of Cheng Xiaoniang.

Xie Changxiang and Xie Yishu were the most favored, so they passed the second eldest Xie Changyou and stood at the front. The two wore gorgeous clothes, all of which were of the best Sichuan brocade, and each wore a long-life lock made of pure gold around their necks , also wearing a pair of double-ring silver bracelets to exorcise evil spirits and pray for blessings. The two are generally identical in life, and they are seven points like Pan Xiaoniang. Only Xie has inherited Xie Haoyuan's heroic spirit between his eyebrows. It doesn't make people feel a trace of femininity, but Xie Yishu's face is gentle and beautiful, and his expression and behavior are [-]% similar to Pan Xiaoniang; Xie Changyou, who is behind the two, is already twelve or thirteen years old At a young age, he wore a gray silver-trimmed gown, with a piece of suet jade "happy eyebrows" hung on his waist with green silk and an eight-treasure knot tied underneath. His body was like a jade tree, and his appearance was very similar to Xie Haoyuan, but There was a bit of gloom on his face, as if there was an indelible sorrow between his brows, as for Xie Yixian, born to Cheng Xiaoniang, who was the least favored in Xie Haoyuan's room, she was wearing a [-]% new green jacket, timidly Standing at the end, his thick curtain-like hair covered Xie Yixian's small face, making it difficult to see his expression clearly.

[The fourth child's genetic strength is not good. Apart from Xie Yihua, there are not many particularly good-looking cubs in this group of children. It's a pity for this gene~]
Thinking about it, Gu Ruosu turned his eyes away from the pile of radish heads, and focused on Xie Haoyuan.

Xie Haoyuan was born very fair, even whiter than his brothers in the family, but because of his fair skin, Xie Haoyuan's handsome facial features look exceptionally distinct, his face is like a peach apricot, with sword eyebrows and star eyes, bright eyes and white teeth, and a leisurely and elegant posture. The cloudy hair and the mutton fat jade hairpin on his head reflected each other, Xie Haoyuan also noticed that his mother was looking at him at this moment, and smiled flatteringly, it was more like a spring breeze in March, blowing through people's hearts, making Gu Ruosu can't help but smack mouthed.

"You just arrived in the capital, if you don't understand anything, you can come to the study and ask me, or you can ask your elder brother, your mother is here, you and your wife are just like in the past, just come once on the first and fifteenth day of the new year. It's nothing important, don't come looking for your mother in the early morning, so as not to disturb your mother's rest."

Xie Ruqing's words interrupted Gu Ruosu's gaze of admiring the handsome man, Gu Ruosu realized that he seemed to have lost his composure, but no one should have noticed~ [Guilt ing]

Xie Ruqing: [There is always a bastard who stands up for her beauty and steals my wife's attention from me. ]
Others: [Si Ye seems to be quite caring for Mrs. Guo, look, Mrs. Guo has been observing whether Si Ye has lost weight due to suffering~]
"Son/daughter-in-law understands, son/daughter-in-law must abide by filial piety, and will not cause boring disturbance to mother." Xie Haoyuan and Wei Shi hurriedly stood up,
"Well, filial piety lies in the heart and in actions. You don't have to say it so seriously in words. You always use the word filial piety, thinking how harsh your mother and I are. We are your parents, not that man-eating monster."

When Xie Haoyuan heard this, he hurriedly cupped his hands again, expressing that he was paying secretly in fear [How did I offend my father, I just came back for the first day, shouldn't I? ]
Gu Ruosu also felt baffled, why is Xie Ruqing so serious all of a sudden, this is his own son whom he hasn't seen for many years, shouldn't it be pity?
"Okay, okay, don't scare the children, don't be afraid of your father, your father may be worried about you, but it's hard to say it, he has a knife and a bean curd heart."

"Yes, the son understands that all the decisions made by the father and mother are for the good of the son. The son must be consistent with his words and deeds, respect his elders, and educate his children." Xie Haoyuan wiped the sweat from his forehead, and hurriedly followed Gu Ruosu's words. climb.

Xie Ruqing may have received Gu Ruosu's hint, and she didn't make things difficult. Instead, she cared about Xie Haoyuan's life in the past few years and the precautions for living in the capital. For a while, the family atmosphere was harmonious.

After about two cups of tea, Gu Ruosu felt a little tired, Xie Ruqing let everyone go back, and specially kept Xie Yihua to have dinner at Hefengtang tonight as she wanted to take care of Ruosu.
