The lucky little prince's doting wife

Chapter 19 There is a tomb in the Duke’s Mansion of Qin

From the east outer city to the inner city's Yuansheng Lane, Xie Shi, the youngest, was not afraid of walking because he was in debt of several thousand taels of silver and wanted to call a carriage.The family of four walked for more than two hours before walking home.

When Xie Shiquan got home, he was so tired that he slumped down on the chair and stuck out his tongue.

Father Xie glanced at his son and said, "You are like a puppy now. Sit down and put your tongue back."

Miao also said: "Take your tongue back quickly. Who did you learn this from? Do you really think you are a puppy?"

Dad Xie: "He is not a dog either."

Xie Shiquan called out: "Oh, you still have time to talk to me? What should I do with my eldest sister's debt? I am worried to death. How much money can I get if I sell it?"

Xie Jiuhuan wanted to give Xie Shiquan some chicken soup, for example, the value of a person cannot be measured by money, but then she thought, what was she doing in this world with such chicken soup?There were many slaves waiting to be sold in the slave market, but no one thought this was wrong.

"A seven-year-old child like you is available in the slave market." Xie Xie also happened to tell Xie Shiquan about the slave market. "It costs about a dozen. After all, you seem to be able to support yourself and work."

Xie Shiquan was dumbfounded again. He was worth more than ten dollars?

Miao didn't blame Xie Xie for saying that to her son. The world was difficult and there was no need to hide it from her son. "Let your father take you to the slave market some other time." Miao said to Xie Shiquan, "You, don't be around all day." When you are a young master in your family, there are many poor people out there, you will know when you see them."

Xie Shiquan nodded first and said yes, then he reacted and said, "But aren't we talking about the debts owed by the eldest sister's family?"

Miao: "Your father sells paintings first, and if that doesn't work, then he plans to build this house."

Xie Jiuhuan: "Then shall we rent a house to live in in the future?"

Father Xie was very tolerant and said, "If I rent a house, the Hanlin Academy will give me more money. It'll be fine."

If there is a rental subsidy, then it will be fine. Xie Jiuhuan immediately felt at ease.

Miao: "I have to set up the stall quickly. If the IOU issue of the old Zhao family is not resolved, the debt of the eldest sister's family will still have to be repaid."

"Er Niang, I'll go with you then," Xie Jiuhuan immediately asked to join.

Mrs. Miao looked at Xie Jiuhuan with some hesitation. Miss Jiu was still a girl who had not left the government, so it was not easy for her to show herself to the public.

"Go ahead," Xie Xie said without Miao's worries, "When I come back from the Hanlin Academy, I will also help. I, I will have no problem collecting money."

"Dad, have you finally decided to work honestly?" Xie Shiquan said in surprise.

Dad Xie: "..."

Really, why does this son have a mouth?
"I, I'm going to take a look at my painting," Mr. Xie stood up, touched his nose, and said sadly, "I'll have to look at it a few more times. I won't be able to see it in a few days."

Father Xie ran to his study, and Xie Jiuhuan asked Xie Shiquan: "Don't you want to see the paintings passed down by the master?"

Xie Shiquan shook his head, "I'm hungry and want to eat."

Xie Jiuhuan was also hungry, but she could still bear it.

Miao sighed and said, "I'm going to cook. It's getting late now."

None of the three mothers are interested in Xie Xie’s treasured collection of paintings, which shows that the Xie family’s cultural inheritance is about to be completed.

Xie Shiquan remained slumped on the chair in the main room without moving. Xie Jiuhuan drank water until she was three-thirds full before leaving the main room and went to the kitchen to find Mrs. Miao and said, "Second mother, I'm very bored and want to go out for a walk."

The Xie family is not a family that keeps its daughter under control. Mrs. Miao didn't think much and just told Xie Jiuhuan: "Don't go too far. Come back in a while. The meal will be ready soon."

"Hey," Xie Jiuhuan promised Miao and ran out of the house.Miao boiled hot water, thinking that Father Xie might want to drink tea, so she went to the study to bring hot water for making tea to Father Xie.

There is a landscape painting spread out on Dad Xie's desk.

Miao took a quick look and said, "Yeah, it's a landscape painting."

Father Xie pointed to the old man in the painting and said: "Madam, look at this old hunter. His face is full of melancholy. The mountains are covered with heavy snow, but he went hunting in the mountains but found nothing. Madam, look at the remaining leaves on the branches, the fallen leaves in the snow." Withered grass, as well as the old Orion’s hair, beard, and his raised sleeves and hem.”

Mrs. Miao looked carefully. What did her Master Xie want her to see?
Dad Xie: "There is also wind in this painting, the north wind, the howling north wind, the flying snow, the loneliness of the empty mountains, and the hardships of mortals. They are all in the teacher's picture of wind and snow."

Miao: "..."

God, there are so many things in this painting?Why didn't she notice anything?
"The master came to the palace today. What does the Holy Master want from you?" Mrs. Miao was more concerned about this. She didn't have time to ask before, but now she has time to ask.

Father Xie said nonchalantly: "It's nothing. The Holy One wanted to grant Xiao Jiuer a marriage, but I refused."

"What?!" Mrs. Miao roared, and almost performed a live performance for Xie Xie, jumping three feet high.

Dad Xie: "Madam, don't be impatient."

Miao said anxiously: "How can I not be anxious? The Holy Father has granted me marriage, and you still have objections, sir?"

Miao just asked Dad Xie, are you not dizzy?

Dad Xie: "The Holy One wants to promise Xiao Jiuer to Lin Deyi."

Miao's mind was in a state of confusion and she didn't react immediately, so she said, "Who?"

Father Xie: "It's the fourth young master of the Lin family whose fiancée died today, the one from the Duke of Qin's palace."

Mrs. Miao was stunned for a moment, then quickly shook her head and said, "This is not possible. Even if we, the ninth girl, remain old girls for the rest of our lives, we cannot fill the grave in the Duke of Qin's mansion."

"This is an unpleasant thing to say," Xie Xie waved his hand at Mrs. Miao and said, "Princess Le'an is also anxious. We have to understand this."

"Understand?" Mrs. Miao became more and more angry as she thought about it, and complained: "She is worried about her son. She has a motherly heart, so she has to take the life of our ninth girl? What is the truth? Master, you are right to refuse, this matter We can’t agree to it.”

"So let's just pretend this never happened," said Father Xie, "and don't tell Xiao Jiu'er."

"Hey, I've written it down and won't tell you," Miao agreed immediately.

"Where's Xiao Jiu'er?" Father Xie asked, "I asked her to come over and take a look at my painting. Didn't she ask about it before?"

Miao: "She said she was bored and went out for a walk. I saw her worrying about her eldest sister's family."

Mrs. Miao glanced at the painting on the desk again and thought to herself, Miss Ninth probably wouldn't be able to understand this painting.

Father Xie is speechless, and Xie Shiquan doesn't know how to appreciate paintings. He is sometimes lonely at home. In terms of culture, no one has a common language with him.

As for Xie Jiuhuan, she ran all the way to Lao Zhao's house.It is true that I expect my second brother-in-law to investigate the IOU, but there is another solution, which is to get this IOU out of Youshi's hands.If there is no IOU, how can Sister Xie and her husband pay back?Not only do they not have to pay back the money, Sister Xie and his wife can also sue the old Zhao family.

Xie Jiuhuan was thinking that she would go to Lao Zhao's house first to see if she could get in if she turned into a cat.

If you don't use special skills, it's like not getting off work at the right time. There's something wrong with your brain.
