Xie Rongzhao didn't answer, he understood everything, there was no need to expose it.
Now that the Xu family members are coming over, they simply think that Cheng Jingzhou has been promoted and has a bright future. In addition, since they didn’t come here before, they mainly don’t know Cheng Jingzhou. After all, they are far away. If Mrs. Cheng hadn’t come to the capital this time, , they may not dare to come over rashly.
Cheng Jingzhou didn't take the Xu family seriously at all. His mother's willingness to reminisce about old friendships with those people had nothing to do with him.
Besides, he could also see that he was from his grandmother's side of the family. The relationship was obviously far away, and it was even less possible for him to seek favors for such a distant relative.
Xie Rongzhao had a large dowry when he got married, and his business has been doing well in recent years, so the Cheng family's life is naturally very comfortable.
Moreover, the business of Four Seasons Tea and Embroidery Village has always been recorded in her own name. When she brought it here directly, it was not included in the dowry.
Although they have grown up in the past few years, the relationship between Weiyuan Houfu and Dingguo Dukefu has not faded, but has become closer and closer.
Xie Rongzhao prepared very generous gifts every time, and he put great thought into them. He didn't just give whatever he thought was expensive, but he always inquired privately about what was rare for others and gave it to him.
Xie Rongzhao also understood that when they first entered Beijing, thanks to Zhao Yue's protection, otherwise her father would not have attracted the attention of the superiors so quickly.
At that time, they had no financial resources, so what they could do was limited.
Now that I have savings in my family, I will naturally not be petty.
Only by coming and going can this relationship be maintained for a long time.
Something happened to Wang Yinuo's husband's family last year. Both her father-in-law and her husband were suspended from work for self-examination. It was Xie Xiuwen who dealt with the situation and finally calmed down the anger.
For this reason, Duke Dingguo had to send a thank-you gift to Xie's family again.
However, Xie Xiuwen confiscated it and said that because the Holy Master was angry, he would inevitably speak harshly.
In fact, everyone understood that Xie Xiuwen wanted to return the favor to Duke Dingguo.
Xie Rongzhao understood some of the twists and turns here, and she didn't understand some until Cheng Jingzhou analyzed it with her later.
Even if he were to live another life, Xie Rongzhao's brain was not good enough to be an official.
Xu Li wanted to seek an official position, but Cheng Jingzhou refused. He wanted to be on duty, and in order to avoid Xu's family, he would sometimes go home late.
If you were someone who knew how to advance and retreat, you would know what Cheng Jingzhou meant when you saw this.
But the Xu family just didn't.
Mrs. Xu couldn't see Cheng Jingzhou for several days, so she naturally felt a little anxious.
"Good sister, I know that Sanlang is busy with errands, and there is nothing we can do about it. My Ali passed the imperial examination last year, but he was a little weak, so our family discussed it and let him stay put and see if he could find a job directly. He is an official and part-time official. If he had a body similar to Saburo, we wouldn't mind him being farther away, but this won't work."
Mrs. Xu's eyes turned red as she spoke. Is this a trick?
"Is Ali okay? Have you invited a doctor to come and see you?"
Mrs. Xu did not answer her directly, but first cared about Xu Li's health.
Mrs. Xu's face stiffened slightly: "It's not bad, but it's too weak. You have to take good care of it."
Mrs. Cheng never played by the rules and said directly: "Since he needs a good rest, why do we have to find a job for him? Isn't it better to let him recuperate at home for a year and a half first? Cousin, I don't care. After all, the body is the most important thing. This official position and so on are just external things. You have to make Ali healthy first, then you can rest assured, right?"
Mrs. Xu was stunned.
What does it mean?
Are you planning to let them go back to their hometown to raise them?
How can this work!
"Cousin, it's not that serious. What's more, Ali is now a member of the Juren family. He can't be so idle all the time. After all, he has been studying for more than ten years, so all his abilities have been wasted."
Mrs. Cheng was silent for a moment, shook her head and said: "Cousin, to be honest, I'm just a woman. I really don't have any ability to find work for Ali. Even my Sanlang, he is just a fifth-grade person now. How much power do you have? I'm afraid we can't do anything about you."
Mrs. Xu became anxious when she heard this, "Cousin, why should you belittle yourself? Who doesn't know that Sanlang married the daughter of Prime Minister Xie? I heard that Mr. Xie loves Sanlang's wife to the core."
Mrs. Cheng's face darkened: "Cousin-sister-in-law, do you mean to ask my San Lang to beg his father-in-law?"
Mrs. Xu was startled and didn't realize what she said. She didn't think there was anything wrong with what she said.
"We are all relatives and we help each other. Why do we have to ask Sanlang to ask for help? Then the Xie family is not considered an outsider."
Mrs. Cheng took a deep breath and was about to get angry when Xu Qinghe came over.
"That's nonsense!"
After Xu Qinghe came in, he directly reprimanded his wife, and then apologized to Mrs. Cheng: "Your cousin-in-law can't speak, and I don't want my cousin to be like her. What does a person like Mr. Xie have to do with our Xu family? You don't have to You really dare to say anything!"
Mrs. Cheng didn't say anything. She always felt that the couple were acting with her here.
Xu Qinghe has not been idle these days. Under the name of Cheng Sanlang's cousin, he has been out asking for news.
"We were too loud before. As long as we can get Ali a job in the capital, even if he is a ninth-grade official, we will do it."
Mrs. Xu stood up immediately: "Master, what are you talking about? We, Ali, have a good family background and are full of talents. How come we can only be a ninth-grade official?"
Xu Qinghe said with a black face: "Shut up!"
Mrs. Cheng felt tired when she saw the two of them acting like this.
"I'm a little uncomfortable. I'm going back to rest first. You'd better discuss it carefully first. If I say that Ali is not in good health, he should take good care of himself. You have to rush to find errands for him, in case he gets tired again. Ali's body is even weaker, and it's too late for you to cry."
After saying that, Mrs. Cheng left first.
In fact, is Xu Li's body really that weak?
That must not be the case!
But the problem is that Mrs. Xu said this herself, and now Mrs. Cheng is using this excuse to block her, and there is nothing wrong with her at all!
When Mrs. Xu saw the person leaving, she became even more angry: "Look! You protected her back then, but look now? Now that I'm up, do you still have your cousin in my eyes?"
Xu Qinghe said with a sullen face: "If you can't speak, don't speak!"
The couple broke up again on bad terms.
Xu Li and his wife Jiang Shi were unaware of the dispute between them. They were enjoying tea leisurely in the yard. Who wouldn't want to live such a life?
Jiang's face looked worried: "Husband, I think Cheng Sanlang has no interest in us at all. Can this thing be done?" (End of Chapter)
