He was just too caring.
It warmed her, a woman who had never been treated like this in her thirty years of life. She was jealous, envious, and hateful, even if the person sitting below was her own daughter.
Madam Yuan was a widowed woman. How could she watch this?
Fortunately, Xiao Baoxin still had his eyes. Seeing his mother’s twitching eyes, he knew that Xie Xian’s act was too much. His mother couldn’t take it anymore and hurriedly glared at Xie Xian, telling him to quickly withdraw his divine power.
She had never seen him so pretentious at home. Why did he start acting as soon as he arrived at her house?
“Where’s Abba?” Xiao Baoxin tried his best to break the awkward atmosphere.
“I was invited by Minister Xu to his house for a drink.” You didn’t even inform him in advance that you were coming back. He had only left for less than an hour. Otherwise, he would have met you.”
“I came out in a hurry and didn’t come.”Xie Xian explained. “It’s my fault for not thinking things through.”
After chatting for a while, Xie Xian got up and wanted to walk around the courtyard.
“We’re only here for a while. What’s the point of leaving? Hurry up and sit down and chat.”Madam Xie was sincere in keeping Xie Xian. She had always found Xie Xian pleasing to the eye. And now, he was her son-in-law. Usually, he would look like a star when he saw him.
Everyone knew that they were going out for a walk, but it was just to make room for the mother and daughter to have a heart-to-heart chat.
If there was a man at home, it would be fine. But now, there was no one to serve them, so how could they let them go to the courtyard to drink the northwest wind? No one would treat their son-in-law like this.
“Quickly sit down.” Madam Xie said. “I just want to talk to you.”
Xie Xian smiled.” Ah Xiao, it’s rare for you to come back. You and your mother must have many things to talk about.” I was just strolling around. It just so happened that Xiao still wanted me to walk around for an hour every day to train my body. It just so happened that 1 was walking around at mother-in-law’s place so that I could have a good rest at home.”
With that, he left.
“You’re really… Aren’t you afraid of exhausting him if you really let him walk for an hour?”
Since Xie Xian was so honest and had already left, Madam Xie didn’t refuse. She called Xiao Baoxin over and gave him a pestle before he could speak.
“I’m just thinking about his health. He’ll be fine after some exercise. He’s much more resistant to walking now than before.”Xiao Baoxin rubbed his arm. Mother’s strength was not much weaker than hers. How much resentment he had in his heart was vented on her.
“He didn’t exercise much in the past, so his body was weak.”
“That’s true. His body…” Madam Xie sighed. “Truly weak.”
Hence, she started to feel sorry for her son-in-law’s health and sighed at his health. This was Xie Xian’s only weakness. As she spoke, she scolded Xiao Baoshu for being heartless.
“You didn’t even write a letter to your family when you arrived at Jingling. The letter he wrote to his family just arrived yesterday. He didn’t know if someone urged him to write it. It didn’t feel like his tone was serious.”
How could he be serious in the past?
As she spoke, she took out the letter from her bosom and showed it to Xiao Baoxin. It was obvious how precious it was and how close she was to him.
Xiao Baoxin opened the letter and saw that it was indeed Xiao Baoshu’s handwriting. However, it was all to tell his family that he was safe. There was no real content. He only told his family not to worry and that he was doing well.
He actually specially mentioned her, afraid that her in-laws would find her troublesome, so he did not write to the Xie residence and asked his mother to pass on a message.
Just this sentence alone made him look like he had grown up quite a bit. Not only did he think of her, but he also thought of her in-laws.
As expected, one would not gain wisdom without experience.
Xiao Bao felt a little relieved after he believed her.
“.. But why did your in-law’s third uncle lose his official position and even have a mistress? Why is this person so unreliable now? He looks like a dog. Just like your eldest brother, the official who had a mistress is gone. The problem is that your eldest brother has a good father, but his third uncle doesn’t. At most, Xie Xian is still his junior.”
“My son-in-law was here just now, so I was too embarrassed to ask. How old was he to do such a thing!”
“Old man, back then, he said that our family was so and so and that he didn’t like us. Who is stronger than him? She would reincarnate into the Xie family.”
After all, she was an elder. No matter how much Xiao Baoxin despised her, he wouldn’t find it out in his mouth, especially in front of Madam Xie. If she dared to say it, Madam Xie would dare to slap her and scold her for being disrespectful.
Madam Xie looked at her daughter as she talked about other people’s family. It was obvious that the two of them were in a good relationship. There was no need to probe. Just their fair and rosy faces were not only harmonious in their relationship, but also in that aspect. They were all nourished.
At the moment I let go of my heart.
“It’s just that your temper is easy to change. That’s your in-law’s family, not your maternal family. Boshu is your blood brother. Even if his bones are broken, his tendons are still connected. He doesn’t hold a grudge against you, but others don’t. He wished that he could look at her wrongly and remember her for years. Some people just couldn’t be sweet when they made sugar, but they were sour when they made vinegar. Don’t always have sand in your eyes.”
“I know you’re a child who has a clear distinction between love and hate, but sometimes, there’s no need to fight for right and wrong in everything in life. It was all trivial matters, and it would pass if he didn’t see the big or the small.”
Before it was Xiao Baoxin’s turn to speak, Madam Xie mentioned Xiao Jing ‘ai from the second branch.
“Just like her, she also went through a lot of trouble to get married. Three days ago, when 1 returned home, you didn’t see these two people. They were both filled with dissatisfaction and almost got kicked out by your second uncle.”
“I heard your Second Shen asking about the maid who went with the dowry in private, and 1 know that these two people didn’t consummate the marriage at all. They quarrel every day, causing Yang Shao’s mother to be really dissatisfied.”
In the past, she was only worried about whether Xie Xian’s body was a responsible person. Who knew that when her daughter married him, the two of them would be so close as if they were the same person. On the other hand, Yang Shao and Xiao Jing ‘ai were cold and didn’t even enter the bridal chamber.
“That maid didn’t dare to come forward either, she listened to three but didn’t listen to four, it seemed that Yang Shao was unable to do it because of Second Mother’s age.”Madam Xie sneered. “You didn’t ask about her age when you married her? I think she didn’t even take a fancy to her. She just kept throwing herself at him. It’s good that she married him. She couldn’t keep her husband and even offended her mother-in-law. 1 think this girl is useless. The more she grows, the more brainless she becomes. She’s not even as good as when she was young.”
Madam Xie didn’t know what was going on, but Xiao Baoxin understood.
His intestines almost broke from laughing.
This was the man that Xiao Jing ‘ai had been trying so hard to get her hands on. In order to marry him, she had even revealed her trump card. She had given him everything, including rebirth and the emperor. In the past few decades and in the future, she had covered her bottom line. In the end, he…
All he could think about was her age.
That’s right, Yang Shao might not have such a strong taste and liked to imagine things. When he thought of the 40 – 50-year-old auntie opposite him, he could not bring himself to eat…Well, that was reasonable..
