Xie Yuan's face was red, and his well-maintained face was full of sinisterness.
Mrs. Xie's face remained unchanged as if she hadn't seen it at all, and her voice was still soft, "I heard from Mother Nian that the daughter of the second brother has been spoiled since she was a child and has always acted willfully. But since she went to teach, Miao Xuan's words to her are not... You must obey your advice, or at least listen carefully. I was thinking that maybe she still has an old relationship with the child adopter that she can't forget? When things happened, the child adopter just happened to encourage her, so she regretted it? "
Xie Yuan thought about it, it was really possible.
When Xie Qi was at home, he acted dishonestly and dared to seduce his aunt who came to the house for help, thus completely bringing down the face of their eldest son. How could his daughter be such a good thing?
Having a child adoptive husband at a young age, it is still open to question whether he is still intact.
"Xie Qi has bad conduct and has raised a daughter who is shameless. He also appointed a child foster husband for her, but she turned out to be a lowly servant who was found from nowhere! It really puts my Xie family's face in this world. Trampled underfoot. And that Xie Miaoxuan, as a girl, if she had a clear mind, she would have known that her father died of illness and had to seek refuge with the clan. If she was really persuaded by someone to go away with a few words, she is really brainless!"
He couldn't get rid of his anger, and he still thought about the huge wealth in Xie Miaoxuan's hands, and his heart ached unbearably, "It doesn't matter that she is brainless. What if it causes Bu'er to lose his official position? I have promised the Taifu that the money will be transferred to him in three days at most." Here you go, Bu'er has prepared his official uniform and is ready to take office! He has been raised under your knees since he was a child. You know him best. With his character, he must be unable to eat anything. The one who loves him the most is you, Madam. You have always had Ji Zhi, you should think of a solution."
Mrs. Xie lowered her head, and her lips curved into a mocking smile.
"I feel the same way, sir. Of course I am also anxious about Bu'er's fame. But how can I come up with any good ideas when I have never seen anyone in my life..."
At this time, the porter hurriedly came in and reported, "Master, Madam, Granny Nian and the others are back."
Xie Yuan suddenly stood up and said excitedly, "Bring people in quickly."
Nian Nian and Xiao Cui limped and helped Wen Zhuo into the inner room. Xie Yuan was surprised by the embarrassment on the three of them.
The three of them were dressed in rags like beggars on the street. Their faces were black, gray, and blue, and their faces were even more frightening. Their clothes were stained with blood and their faces were gray and pale, as if they were going to die in the next moment.
Xie Yuan couldn't care about their life and death at the moment, and asked sternly, "Why are there only three of you back? Xie Miaoxuan."
"Sir, the girl... ran away." Grandma Nian was panting, her mouth was dry and chapped, and it hurt so much to speak even a little.
"Originally, we still have more than a hundred miles to reach Kyoto. The girl didn't know what the wind was like. She refused to listen to the old slave's dissuasion and insisted on resting where she was. The old slave wanted to persuade her again, but she whipped her over. If it hadn't been Wen Zhuo stopped me for a moment, fearing that he was going to beat me to death on the spot. Just because Wen Zhuo stretched out his hand to stop me, the girl's child supporter punched him half to death, and his words did not mention the clan at all. Taking this into consideration, the girl also threatened that the clan needs to rely on her and asked the adults to put on a good posture."
"We were shocked. Then in the blink of an eye, a group of thieves came out of nowhere. Without saying a word, they rushed into the team, killed Yang Wei, the leader of the group, and stole the gold and silver. If we hadn't reacted quickly, I'm afraid we would have been killed. Kaoru Yiyi was hacked to death. It was at this time that the girl got on her horse and ran away while being protected by other troops."
"It's the other way around! It's the other way around! So much gold and silver just ran away without caring about it! It's so stupid!"
Xie Yuan's throat was like a bellows and he was gasping for air. He kicked Grandma Nian in the heart, causing her to fall to the ground. He asked sternly, "Didn't you say that she is already under your control? No matter what you say, Does she obey everything? Didn’t you say that everything is under your control? "
"What kind of bandit? You ignorant old woman? How could there be a bandit within a hundred miles of Kyoto? Could it be that you are trying to make money and deceive the Lord! If you don't recruit them from the truth, be careful about your fate."
Nian Nian was kicked to the ground, her cry was blocked in her chest and her face was as red as blood.
She is Mrs. Xie's dowry, and she knows Xie Yuan's temper best. Although he likes to show off the majesty of the patriarch and talks about benevolence and morality, if anyone dares to make him suspicious, even ten lives will not be enough to fight him. Killed.
I could only grit my teeth and kneel down again, shrinking and begging for mercy, "Sir, this old slave didn't lie."
Xiaocui was shocked at this time. This was different from what she thought.
The master of the house whom she longed for turned out to be a murderer. Madam looked on with cold eyes. When she saw his cold eyes sweeping towards her, she was afraid that she would follow in the footsteps of Grandma Nian, so she hurriedly spoke tremblingly, "My lord, what Grandma Nian said is absolutely true. I also advise you." The girl's journey was not peaceful and she wanted to return to the clan as soon as possible, but she didn't know what happened, and she actually said that Xie Yuanju was the best husband the master had matched for him, and she also said..."
"What else are you talking about! You still want me to ask you to explain, why are you hesitating?"
"The girl also said that she was not a poor relative who went to Kyoto to fight the autumn wind. What about the shameless nanny next to the lady? She is not worthy to speak in front of her. If the eldest brother dares to talk to her with this attitude, then she will not come to Kyoto. .”
"Not only was Nian Nian beaten, but the slave was also beaten by her because she helped the elder to speak."
As she spoke, half of her red and swollen face was exposed, and she was complaining in her heart. She betrayed Xie Miaoxuan because Nian Nian said that she could show her love in Kyoto, and even the son-in-law of the clan could plan for her. Now that she has returned to the clan , unexpectedly faced a lot of beatings.
She had never suffered like this since she was a child.
But Xie Miaoxuan didn't find it for a day, so she didn't dare to ask for anything. Thinking of Xie Miaoxuan, she felt resentful in her heart. If she hadn't made her own decision, she would have been rewarded by the head of the family and his wife.
Xie Yuan's sinister eyes passed over her face.
Xie Yuan smiled grimly, "Okay! Very good. If she is allowed to return to the clan, let's see how I, the uncle, will deal with this daughter who is ignorant of etiquette. If you think about it carefully, was there anything fishy about that time? What thieves appeared? How many? Aren’t there hundreds of people in the team? Isn’t it possible that the opponent has nearly a thousand people?”
Nian Nian covered her heart, and she was extremely resentful towards Xie Miaoxuan. She originally took this trip thinking it was a good job, but she was about to return to receive the reward, but she never thought that Xie Miaoxuan would suddenly go crazy.
Xie Yuan's words rolled around in her mind, and she suddenly came back to her senses. There was something wrong, but she couldn't tell for the moment.
She tried hard to recall the details, but she still calmed down and said, "My lord is wise, as soon as you said it, I remembered that there was indeed something wrong with the situation at that time! We have been on this journey, and there are still some chapters left. The number was about two hundred, but when we encountered the robbers, the number of the other party was only a hundred at most, but the number of people on our side suddenly decreased a lot, and there were only a dozen people who protected the girl and escaped."
Under Xie Yuan's cannibalistic eyes, at the moment of life and death, Wen Zhuo suddenly had an idea. His eyes widened, "If the robbers and the people who escaped protecting the girl were matched, the number would be exactly two hundred! This is the important place in Gyeonggi Province. How could there be bandits and thieves! It must be a show made by the girl, I hope you will notice it clearly."
Wen Zhuo has been working outside with Xie Yuan all year round, so he naturally has a more vicious view than those in the inner house such as Nian Nian and Xiao Cui.
Previously, he was just confused because of his serious injury. When he met Xie Yuan at Xie's Mansion, he knew that something was wrong, and his mind became clearer.
