The lucky little prince's doting wife

"I'm going to the capital to find my second brother-in-law," Sister Xie decided not to wait any longer and talked to Mrs. Miao. Not only did it not relieve her nervousness, it actually made her even more nervous.

Mrs. Miao: "Is the second uncle in the Yamen at the moment?"

Sister Xie walked forward and said, "I don't know. If he's not here, then I'll go to his house to look for him."

"I'll go with you," Mrs. Miao walked behind Sister Xie.

Sister Xie stopped in her hurry, stopped Mrs. Miao, and said, "Second mother, we don't need two people for this. I can just go. You, please wait for me at home."

Mrs. Miao: "Sister, I'm not worried."

Sister Xie said: "You are still wearing an apron."

At this moment, Sister Xie felt a little regretful. Her second mother is a very particular person. When did she wear an apron and go out on the street?She was anxious for herself and made her second mother anxious too.

Mrs. Miao looked down at herself, stretched out her hand to take off her apron, and said, "I'll take off my apron and follow you."

"What are you two doing here?" Sister Xie was about to persuade Mrs. Miao to go back again, when Father Xie's questioning voice came from behind her.

Sister Xie was busy and turned around to look.

Father Xie was walking towards Niang Liang'er with his hands behind his back. As he walked, he said, "Are you going out?"

"Where have you been?" Sister Xie didn't suppress her anger and asked Dad Xie loudly.

Father Xie walked up to Mrs. Xie, looked at Sister Xie, then at Mrs. Miao, and whispered, "Why is Mrs. Jin still wearing an apron?"

"Master, where have you been?" Mrs. Miao also asked Xie.

Dad Xie: "Let's go home and talk."

Sister Xie and Mrs. Miao followed Father Xie. Mrs. Miao said, "Sir, have you had breakfast?"

Dad Xie: "Ah, I have no appetite today."

Mrs. Miao: "You haven't eaten? You can't skip breakfast even if you don't have an appetite. Aren't you hungry?"

Dad Xie said: "I'll go home to eat. Is there still food at home?"

Mrs. Miao: "Yes, there is still a pot of porridge. Shiquan hasn't gotten up yet. Master, this son of yours is crying so loudly that he can still sleep without waking up."

Father Xie laughed softly and said, "It's a blessing to be able to eat and sleep. Madam, you don't have to worry about everything."

How many families can't raise their children well enough? This child in their family, who eats and sleeps stupidly, looks like he will live a long life.

Mrs. Miao: "Let him continue like this? He doesn't need to study?"

Dad Xie: "Read it."

Sister Xie asked: "Dad, where have you been?"

The three of them had already walked into Yuansheng Alley. Sister Xie would not be distracted by her father's words and changed the topic. They could talk about Xie Shiquan's studies another day. If that didn't work, they would always talk to the Xie family. You can also hold a family meeting to discuss, but now, Dad, you must tell me, you went out before dawn today, where did you go?
Mrs. Miao asked Father Xie in a low voice: "Are you going to see Xiaojiu off?"

Father Xie: "No, didn't the Holy One not let anyone give it away?"

Sister Xie: "Then where have you been?"

Dad Xie: "I just walked around the city casually."

Sister Xie didn't believe her father's words and said, "Really?"

Father Xie: "I also went to take a look outside Commander Xie's residence."

Sister Xie and Mrs. Miao looked at each other, and Sister Xie said, "Who?"

Father Xie: "It's Xie Changjin, the commander of the front department. I heard that his eldest lady is going to Jiangnan with Xiao Jiu'er." Sister Xie: "Follow Xiao Jiu'er..., no, then you should go to the city gate to see Ah, why are you going to someone else’s house?”

Dad Xie: "I couldn't enter the commander's palace, so I just stood outside the palace and looked around."

Mrs. Miao couldn't help but ask, "What can you see?"

Father Xie whispered: "I saw Miss Xie coming out of the house with someone, but she didn't follow Xiao Jiu'er."

Sister Xie: "Then is she going to Jiangnan?"

"Ah," Father Xie said, "Looking at the direction she was walking, and the people following her carrying luggage, Miss Xie is heading to the south of the Yangtze River."

Mrs. Miao: "Then why doesn't she go with Xiao Jiu'er? If they go together, they can still take care of each other."

Father Xie turned to look at his wife and said, "What can Xiao Jiuer do to take care of her?"

Do you expect Xie Jiuhuan to take care of others?

Mrs. Miao felt guilty for a moment, but she quickly said, "Why can't Xiao Jiu'er take care of others? Our Xiao Jiu'er is fine."

Dad Xie: "Okay, okay, our little Jiu'er is fine."

"Then why did Miss Xie leave so late?" Mrs. Miao continued to ask.

Father Xie said helplessly: "It must be the arrangement of the imperial court. Where can I go to find out?"

Mrs. Miao looked at her master and suddenly felt a little resentful towards Father Xie. You just have a higher official position, right?It must not be as difficult as it is now to inquire about news from the imperial court, right?

Sister Xie: "So you didn't do anything and were just stunned?"

Dad Xie sighed and said, "What can I do?"

Sister Xie stopped talking. Thinking about it carefully, there was nothing his biological father could do. He couldn't send Xie Jiuhuan away, and he couldn't talk to Xie Changjin's daughter.

After Xie returned home, he sat down in the main room and Mrs. Miao brought him porridge that was warming on the stove.Wenshan followed Mrs. Miao, with four dishes of side dishes on the tray in her hand.

Father Xie went out early and did not meet Wenshan who came back. When he saw Wenshan, he smiled and said to Wenshan: "Xiaoshan is back. When did she come back?"

Mrs. Miao put the hot porridge in front of Father Xie and said, "Sir, not long after you left, Xiaoshan came back. After the fifth uncle saw her off, he went home."

"This little girl," Mrs. Miao looked at Wenshan and sighed helplessly and said, "I asked her to go to bed. She only slept for a long time before she got up to help me with my work."

Wen Shan pursed her lips and smiled, carefully placing the four dishes on the tray on the table in front of Father Xie one by one.

"Let him eat. My clothes haven't been dried yet. Xiaoshan, come with me," Mrs. Miao asked Wenshan to follow her.

This little girl feels uncomfortable doing no work, so let this little girl help you with some easy work.Mrs. Miao is considerate, otherwise wouldn't she be able to serve a bowl of hot porridge and four plates of side dishes by herself?

After Sister Xie came back, she went to the backyard to tell Xie Shiquan to get up. According to Xie Shiquan's urine, the two siblings must be "aggressive".

Father Xie was left alone, holding the porridge bowl in his hand, and he sighed heavily.He didn't tell the truth to his wife and eldest daughter, he didn't wander around the city, he left home and went directly to Commander Xie's mansion.

He stood outside the Commander's Office for a long time and saw many people coming to the Commander's Office, including civil servants, military generals, and eunuchs in the palace.

Father Xie also discovered that among the people hanging around outside the commander's residence, apart from him, several had suspicious identities, as if they were being followed.

Even an inexperienced person like him could find problems. Father Xie didn't believe that the people in the command office couldn't find them, but this family just let it go.

In the capital, you can't even straighten your waist. What are you afraid of?What's the situation of the Xie family in Liaodong? Father Xie shook his head and took a sip of the hot porridge. Well, the clear porridge didn't taste very good.

Father Xie stood outside Xie Changjin's house for a long time that day, several hours, and finally left silently. (End of chapter)
