Xie Wanyu looked at that person, and her eyes suddenly turned red.
The person at the door is none other than her eldest brother Xie Ruan.
I remember that in his previous life, Xie Ruan went on an expedition with Tai Shuqi in the past two years, and finally died in battle.
Of the three direct brothers and sisters of the Xie family, none of them survived. Although the concubine children were all poor people who could not afford to support them, they still lived reasonably well relying on the Xie family's money. However, after the Xie family was in trouble, they all Not a happy ending.
At that time, Xie Wanyu had been taking care of the affairs of her husband's family and did not even attend Xie Ruan's funeral. The Xie family also gradually declined after Xie Ruan's death.
In the entire Xie family, the only person with the most promising future is Xie Ruan.
The last time I saw him was at a palace banquet, but Xie Wanyu had been busy dealing with Princess Lingyun, and the brother and sister didn't even exchange a few words.
"Brother." Xie Wanyu called out.
Xie Ruan walked over quickly and said, "Brothers and sisters, why do you and I have to salute? Get up quickly." He pulled Xie Wanyu up.
He helped Xie Wanyu sit down and then sat across from her, "I have been busy recently and my mother is not in good health. My father and I have no time to spare. It was not until you wrote that you were fine that we felt relieved."
Xie Wanyu could tell that he was really worried. After all, they were siblings from the same mother.
"I have sent people to look for the doctor, and I think we will have a result soon." Xie Wanyu said.
Xie Ru'an nodded, "My father and I also sent a lot of people. Our Xie family has a lot of money, and there will be brave men under the heavy reward. You don't have to worry."
Xie Wanyu felt warm in her heart, "Eldest brother and father are busy, but are they busy with the war in the northwest?"
"How do you know?" Xie Ruan asked.
"After all, the Marquis is also a military commander, and he knows more or less the affairs of the court." Xie Wanyu said with a smile.
Xie Ru'an was very cautious, looked around and said, "This matter cannot be spread out yet. The people from the northwest are tough, and the prince plans to make a sneak attack." He whispered.
"Brother, my mother is not in good health, so please don't go to the battlefield yet. Besides, my sister-in-law is pregnant for the first time in so many years..."
Xie Ru'an also married the Qian family's legitimate daughter early on. His father was the Minister of Rites. Although he had a high official position, he did not have much power, otherwise the emperor would not agree.
It's just that Qian has been infertile for many years since he entered the family. Xie Ru'an is a doting wife and doesn't want a concubine.
Xie Ruan sighed, "The man has his ambitions in all directions. Your sister-in-law is a sensible person and never cares about this."
"Yes." Xie Wanyu lowered her eyelids, knowing that she could not easily prevent Xie Ru'an from going to the battlefield, so she could only think of other ways.
"Your husband is an idiot. If you can't live anymore, even if you go back home with Li, my brother can still support you." Although Xie Ru'an is conservative, he could see what happened that day clearly. Xiao Jing was right Xie Wanyu is not good.
Even when Xie Wanyu vomited blood, he was not worried at all.
"Master Marquis just doesn't know how to say nice things, but he is still nice to me." Xie Wanyu said something that even she didn't believe. She just didn't want her family to worry.
At this moment, there was a sudden noise outside the restaurant, and many diners had already rushed to the door to take a look.
Xie Ru'an opened the window and saw a group of people being driven away in a prison van. The leaders were Song Fuli and Yan Qingzhao, both of whom were Tai Shuqi's men.
"It's from the Guo family." Xie Ru'an said with a frown.
Xie Wanyu was a little surprised, "Isn't that a member of the Queen Mother's family?" Did Tai Shuzhen declare war on the imperial power? How dare you touch the emperor's mother clan.
Xie Ru'an thought for a while and then said, "No, I'm going to ask for details." He stood up, but he was worried about Xie Wanyu, "You should take good care of yourself. If you are not doing well, go home..."
"Alright brother, I'm fine, go ahead." Xie Wanyu said with a smile.
Xie Ruan nodded and hurried out.
He originally came in after seeing the Xiao family's carriage at the door of the restaurant.
Because Qian is sensible and takes good care of his family, he can focus all his energy on government affairs. Now he is probably doing errands when he passes by the restaurant.
Xie Wanyu waited for Xie Ruan to leave before she smiled.
Nowadays, the sides in the court are very obvious, and the war is about to break out. I never expected that Tai Shuqi would not restrain his strength at this time, but instead faced the difficulties.
After finishing the meal with a lot of worries, Xie Wanyu took Grandma He and Zhu Fang back home.
Qi Ranyuan.
Qing He knelt on the ground, "...In desperation, Xue Xuening pawned a few pieces of valuable jewelry, and this was enough to get two hundred taels."
Now Xue Xuening and Mrs. Xiao finally met their match. The Zhou family women were a rough-and-tumble but also a good citizen, and they couldn't fight or scold them.
Otherwise, Xue Xuening would never be able to take out the two hundred taels of silver.
After listening to Qinghe's words, Xie Wanyu smiled and then nodded towards Zhufang. Zhufang took out a silver coin from her sleeve and handed it to Qinghe, "Sister Qinghe, get up quickly. Let's go and accompany you." I'm going to have tea."
After the two resigned, they left together.
Qinghe knows how to assess the situation very well, and has now successfully become the second-in-command of the West Academy.
Zhufang also knew very well, so he often pulled Qinghe to talk.
"Madam, why don't we go see the old lady? I guess she won't be able to bear it." Aunt He stepped forward and said.
Normally, she would have gone first without waiting for Nanny He to remind her. After all, she valued filial piety.
But now, she won't be like before. "Grandma is in good health and we don't need to worry about it at all. Besides, the drug in me is gone and I don't have the strength to go out."
After saying that, Xie Wanyu took a book and read it while leaning on the couch.
Naturally, Aunt He didn't want to say anything more. She just felt that her wife had become more temperamental. Thinking about it carefully, it was not a bad thing.
Xie Wanyu lay in Qiran Courtyard for two days, and the whole family ignored her.
Until Xue Xuening came to the door in person.
"Ouch, why are my siblings' faces so pale?" Xue Xuening looked worried.
"Sister-in-law, please stay away. Don't get over your illness, cough, cough, cough." Xie Wanyu lay on the bed, covering her lips and coughing lightly.
Xue Xuening sighed, "I'm afraid of illness. I'm just worried about your health, so I came here to take a look."
"Sister-in-law, please worry about it. I'm afraid my illness won't last long." Xie Wanyu gasped heavily, looking like she didn't have much time left.
Xue Xuening had been counting the time since she gave Xie Wanyu the medicine, but she didn't know that Xie Wanyu hadn't drank for a long time. Seeing Xie Wanyu looking like this, she was secretly happy.
"Don't tell me that you are only so old." After Xue Xuening finished speaking, he added, "But if you fall down, this family may be in chaos."
Biyun also agreed, "That's right. Nowadays, no one is taking care of things, so I have caught many people stealing property."
Both the master and the servant looked at Xie Wanyu, but Xie Wanyu said, "Is this happening? Zhufang, go and question me."
