Song's roar echoed in her yard, and also rang in the ears of Gu Shu, who had been hiding nearby and eavesdropping. Gu Shu watched Xie Yi Nian leave the yard without mercy, and then looked at Song The close old mother and others rushed in to comfort Mrs. Song. The maids in the yard were afraid of the master's anger and did not even care about the work they were doing. After that, Gu Shu slowly walked out from the corner.
Gu Shu had already expected that this matter was related to the Song family, but the reaction to Xie Yinian, who was usually soft-tempered and even timid and taciturn, was unexpected. Gu Shu's heart felt at this moment I couldn't help but look at Xie Yi Nian. If I had been so clear-headed in my previous life, I might not have ended up in that situation...
Of course, now is not the time for her to sigh. She has to solve this troublesome matter first, and then think about how to deal with the Murong family after they come to Beijing. She was the one who just The prince learned from his mouth that a fourth-rank official in the court was about to retire and return to his hometown, and his uncle, the emperor, was planning to select an official from the local area to take his place...
There is really not much time left for her...
However, before that, she had to give the Song family a big gift...
——
(I am a super cute dividing line)
While Gu Shu was still thinking about how to give this great gift to the Song family, the most scorching time of the noon sun had passed quietly. The thanks and thanks on the other side were also due to Xie Ruqing's return. And took the initiative to leave Gu Ruosu's yard, leaving Gu Ruosu and Xie Ruqing, an old couple, staying together...
"I've been coming back a little late lately. I went to meet a friend from far away who doesn't let me worry. I didn't go to meet anyone else." He took it off and put it on the clothes rack behind him, while explaining to Gu Ruosu why he came home late these days.
Gu Ruosu nodded and said with great understanding:
"Well, okay, I know, wouldn't it be nice to have friends come from far away? As a landowner, you naturally have to spend time with them, I understand~"
"If possible, you can let people live in our house. You have such a big house in Kyoto, so letting your friend live in an inn is a waste of money."
"It's okay. He doesn't like to have contact with outsiders. I have arranged for him to live in a courtyard we bought many years ago. He lives comfortably. I just need to go and stay with him from time to time. I won't Let him come and bother you..."
"Wait until next time. When he wants to meet his daughter next time, I will take you there~" Xie Ruqing was afraid that Gu Ruosu would think that she deliberately did not introduce him to her friends, so she quickly added.
"Okay, actually it's all fine. I don't mind these things." Gu Ruosu naturally heard the worry in Xie Ruqing's words, so Gu Ruosu explained.
Xie Ruqing walked to Gu Ruosu's side at this time, sat down, took the velvet fan from Biyun's hand next to her, and fanned Gu Ruosu to dispel the summer heat, while saying:
"I know you don't care, but I can't not explain many things to you just because of your generosity. I am your husband, and husband and wife are one body. I will naturally let you know what I do, even if Sometimes it's not convenient for you to know specific things, so I have to let you know some general information so that you don't have to worry about me."
Gu Ruosu glanced at Xie Ruqing in surprise. She didn't expect that Xie Ruqing thought like this, which really touched her. After all, she and Xie Ruqing could live to the age of her and Xie Ruqing without being smoothed by the trivial matters of life. It can be said that there are very few people who can still maintain the respect and love between husband and wife...
"I know that you are very measured in everything you do... I will be like you and try my best to let you know everything about me and not hide anything from you..." Gu Ruosu said.
Xie Ruqing smiled at this moment, touched Gu Ruosu's hair, which was almost undecorated with pearls and green rings, and then said:
"You, you just say nice things, but you always like to hide something from me..."
Seeing Gu Ruosu's confused eyes, Xie Ruqing paused, then sighed and said:
"It's okay. It's all over. It doesn't matter anymore. Just don't hide anything from me in the future."
"Also, I already know about the rumors circulating outside this time. Don't take it to heart. They are just nonsense. I will handle this matter quickly..."
Gu Ruosu had almost been confused about the two sentences Xie Ruqing said just now. After finally hearing Xie Ruqing say something that she finally understood, Gu Ruosu hurriedly said:
"Don't worry, I won't take this matter to heart. Those rumors are completely false at first glance. Who would believe it~"
"It's just that I'm worried that Shu'er, a child who has always been quiet, abides by the rules, is an honest child...will hearing these words...will have an impact on her physical and mental health..."
Hearing Gu Ruosu's words, Xie Ruqing couldn't help but twitch her lips:
[Gu Shu is an honest child...My wife-in-law’s misunderstanding of her is really deep...]
But Xie Ruqing didn't want Gu Ruosu to know about Gu Shu's views, so she still followed Gu Ruosu's words and said:
"Indeed, Gu Shu is a very honest child. In addition, she has just arrived in Kyoto and is not familiar with the place..."
"I'm not sure I will be affected by these rumors, but don't worry, I will tell them later that I want them to spend more time with her. They are all little girls of about the same age, so there is nothing wrong with having a little fun..."
"It really doesn't work. I remember that this child recently wanted to go to Zhuangzi in the suburbs to stay for a while. She said it was to relax her mind and body. I asked her to take all the little girls and boys at home and stay away. In the city of Kyoto, those rumors naturally stay far away... out of sight is out of mind."
Gu Ruosu nodded and said:
"You are still thoughtful. Then ask them what they mean later. When this matter is resolved, our whole family can have a meal together with Hemeimei."
"It's all up to you... When the time comes, you can eat whatever you want..." Xie Ruqing said, unconditionally supporting Gu Ruosu's decision.
"By the way, you can accompany me later and choose some gadgets for Yi Yi and Yi Hua. Although these two children are young, they are really filial..."
Seeing Xie Ruqing's unconditional support for her, Gu Ruosu couldn't help but feel happy in her heart. She suddenly wanted to say something more to Xie Ruqing, so she started talking about two little girls, Xie Yiyi and Xie Yihua, whom Xie Ruqing also liked very much. These two granddaughters, so the two of them chatted very happily...
——
(I am a super cute dividing line~)
Just as Gu Ruosu and Xie Ruqing were talking about these two sensible little girls, they didn't know that the little girl they were talking about was, to be precise, Xie Yiyi, this little girl, was going to perform another Jingwu show for them. OK……
"Humph, I didn't expect that I could meet you here. Today, I brought so many people with me..." Xie Yiyi was holding Xie Yihua's hand happily walking on the road to the Duke of Yan's mansion, preparing to I took Xie Yihua with me to play with my little uncle~
Unexpectedly, Xie Yiyi ran into Yuan Chen who had come to her house to look for her father before. However, this time Yuan Chen was not alone, but with many scholars she had never seen before...
"It turns out to be Miss Xie. Yuan has met Miss Xie."
"Well, Mr. Yuan is so elegant... Counting today, I have seen you at my house five times... I don't know what you do when you come to my house every day..." Xie Yiyi looked at the recent appearance of you. Yuan Chen, who was still haunted, said casually.
"Today, I brought some intellectuals to visit my father. Your father has learned a lot and is very rich, which makes us yearn for it, so I came more diligently..."
"On the other hand, Miss Xie, since the last incident in the study, I haven't seen Miss Xie studying hard next to your father for a long time... Miss Xie, you should spend your time learning more from your father." Yuan Chen answered in one breath. After answering Xie Yiyi's two questions, he very tactfully expressed his wish to see Xie Yiyi and study with Xie Yiyi in the study.
But Yuan Chen's so-called good expectations and tactful expressions had a different taste in Xie Yiyi's mouth. Xie Yiyi first bit his ears and said to Xie Yihua:
"Look, look, I said, this person is not a good person. He doesn't care about his own affairs, but he takes care of my affairs... What does my lack of knowledge and skill have to do with him... He is just doing his job!"
Then, he said to Yuan Chen:
"Don't bother Mr. Yuan to worry about it. Mr. Yuan wants to worry about my studies. It's better to worry about the upcoming imperial examination. Although Mr. Yuan's reputation is well-known outside, there is a saying that is good. People make progress, what makes people fall behind..."
"Humility makes people progress, pride makes people fail." Xie Yihua received Xie Yi's eyes asking for help and hurriedly said in Xie Yi's ear.
"Yes, humility makes people progress, and pride makes people lag behind. Mr. Yuan was interested in playing in groups with others, writing poems and songs, and brought people to my father, but he was full of confidence in this imperial examination. I’m full, so I don’t review my lessons at home... Mr. Yuan, it’s better not to be so confident in your life, there is no harm in reading more books..."
"After all, every year, there are many people like Mr. Yuan who were famous and high-spirited at first, but in the end their reputations fell behind~"
Yuan Chen looked at Xie Yi, who spoke like a hedgehog and spoke unforgivingly, and chuckled. He was about to say something, but unexpectedly, he was interrupted by several scholars around him. He only listened to these scholars: "You I said in one sentence:
"Why does Miss Xie speak so harshly! Our brother Yuan is a world-famous talent! How could he fail! Miss Xie! You must be responsible for what you say!"
"That's right! Miss Xie, how can you bully others like this! Although we come from a poor family, we are no more noble than you! But after all, we are also well-read poetry and books, and will be talented people in the future! Girl, you are talking like this! Really! Oops!"
"Thank you, girl! As the daughter of the prime minister, why do you speak so carelessly? You need to know how important the imperial examination is to us! Why do you dare to say anything!"
"That's right! As expected of a woman! She doesn't understand how difficult it is for us men to be men at all!"
"That's right! Women are really shallow and ignorant... No wonder we men are asked to study more and become officials..."
"Shut up!" Yuan Chen saw that these people were talking more and more, and their expressions of gratitude were getting worse and worse, and he hurriedly stopped them.
"You are the only ones who are still scholars! Scholars are so fond of taking quotes out of context! Who did I say that Young Master Yuan will definitely lose his reputation this time?!"
"I just asked Mr. Yuan to study more to prevent his reputation from falling. Is there any problem?!"
"Why, is it possible that a person who doesn't study hard can still get into the top exam?! If that's true! Everyone in the world should stop trying so hard!"
"That's right! You gentlemen really don't know how to speak! I mean, although my sister doesn't speak very nicely, her words are rough and rude. No matter how talented and famous a person is, if he doesn't work hard, how can he have a chance to be named on the gold list? ?”
"Everyone is holding on to my sister's words. They just think that they have achieved fame after studying for several years..."
"Also, you scholars keep saying that we women don't understand the difficulties of your men. Then how can you men understand the difficulties of our women? What's more, what's wrong with women? Women naturally know the importance of the imperial examination."
"Yes, you keep saying that women are shallow and ignorant, but I think you are really shallow and ignorant. Isn't your mother a woman? As a woman, your mother gave birth to you and raised you, and also asked you to study and gain fame. Marry a wife and have children, but in exchange for your words!"
"That's right! Our government allows women to take the imperial examination and become officials, and also allows women to go into battle to kill the enemy. What you just said is clearly relying on your fame, and you are arrogant! You have no law!"
Xie Yiyi originally just said something unpleasant, but there was no malice. In addition, she had met Yuan Chen many times, so she naturally knew what to say and what not to say.
Moreover, she had already prepared for a 300-round battle with Yuan Chen, but unexpectedly, she was interrupted by this group of people and humiliated...
Although Xie Yihua, who is good-tempered, is also very angry! What’s more, it was not the Lord’s intention to give thanks that he had never endured in the first place.
Therefore, Xie Yiyi and Xie Yihua, two sisters, worked together and refused to give them a chance to argue, and gave them a good reply.
"Only women and..." A ignorant scholar was about to continue talking, but he didn't expect that he would say thank you directly:
"Only women are the only ones who are still scholars. Everyone who has read knows that the women and villains here are people like you who are cunning, despicable, moody, and shady at heart! What a shit basin. Button on a woman’s head! It’s really shameless..."
"It really disgusts me!"
Seeing that Xie Yiyi's anger had reached an extreme point, Xie Yiyi and Watson were afraid that Xie Yiyi would be angry because of this incident, so he hurriedly said to the side:
"Sister, please don't be angry. Let's go. It's not worth being angry with this kind of person!"
"Hmph! I'm leaving?! Why should I leave? This is my Xie family, not their Yuan family, nor their Zhao Qian and Sun Li's family. I want to leave! They are also leaving!"
"But we are following Mr. Yuan to meet the Prime Minister..."
Xie Yi once again interrupted these people without mercy and said directly:
"What's wrong with the Prime Minister? The Prime Minister! The Prime Minister is my father, my biological father, and I am his biological daughter. Do you think that my father will blame me for driving you out of my house because you are an outsider who humiliated his daughter?" Something about that?”
"Also, Mr. Yuan, what's wrong with Mr. Yuan? It's true that Mr. Yuan is my father's guest, but he is also a guest after all. I am the master. How should the master deal with you ignorant guests? Is it difficult? I have to ask Yuan Sir, do you want the opinion of a guest?"
"Also, Mr. Yuan! Although I don't like you, I think you are an upright person as my father said... But now, it seems that I can't say for sure. After all, birds of a feather flock together. People are divided into groups! The virtues of your friends cannot be judged by your own virtues..."
"Mr. Yuan, you are a guest that my father has invited here. Today, I won't chase you away, so you can take care of yourself! But I have decided to chase these people! If you want to stop me! Just stop me!" , thanked him and called the servants behind him to start driving people away.
Yuan Chen really didn't expect that this matter would develop into what it is now, nor did he expect that these friends, all of whom looked like scholars in front of him and Yuan Shangshu, would treat women in this way and be so rude in private. Being arrogant about his own fame...
It is true that he, Yuan, disagrees...
This group of people were very bastards at the time... If he had known their faces earlier, he would definitely not have made friends with this group of people under Yuan Shangshu's warm invitation... But in the final analysis... he was wrong in everything. People have led to this situation today...
Therefore, Yuan Chen just watched with cold eyes as these people were kicked out by the Xie family's servants. He neither asked for mercy nor was he bothered by the behavior of those people who "failed to save him".
"Hmph, the unsavory people have finally caught up. Yihua, let's go!" Xie Yihua was furious at the moment, so he didn't want to pay attention to Yuan Chen at all, and just wanted to pull Xie Yihua away.
Seeing that Xie Yi was about to leave, Yuan Chen hurriedly came to Xie Yi. Seeing Xie Yi's frown, he refused to retreat.
Yuan Chen bowed deeply in gratitude, and then said:
"I'm sorry, thank you girls. Today, it was Yuan who made friends accidentally that led to today's situation. Yuan is really sorry to the two girls, but please believe in Yuan." , Mr. Yuan is not the same person as them, Mr. Yuan believes that all living beings are equal, and there is no distinction between men and women..."
Xie Yiyi looked at Yuan Chen who was sincerely repenting in front of him. He couldn't tell how he felt for a moment, but in the end he was just angry. But after getting along with him several times, Xie Yiyi still felt that Yuan Chen was not a bad person, so , waited for Yuan Chen to finish speaking, and then left without saying a word with thanks to Hua...
