Before pouncing on him, she needed to train the fats on her body that did not belong to her.
Xiao Baoxin called Cai Wei in. After handing over the mission, she changed into a light Hu robe and went to the courtyard to practice her daily martial arts. One fight lasted for two hours.
It was already early spring, and the weather was still cold. However, Xiao Baoxin was dressed in red and Hu clothes. Her long hair was tied up and flew in the air with her strength. Xie Xian looked out of the window and seemed to be mesmerized.
It was the only bright light in the entire courtyard.
She was also the soul of his life.
Just by looking at her, it was as if the emotions in his chest were about to overflow.
Xiao Baoxin stopped his attack and turned around to look at the window, smiling. The sunlight shone on the beads of sweat that were dripping down her face. They sparkled and shone so brightly that Xie Xian’s eyes were almost blinded.
After the fist fight, his heart was open.
After taking a short nap in the afternoon, she asked Tang Li to prepare the silver. She personally delivered it to the third wife, Madam Wang.
At that time, Madam Wang’s face was an indescribable color. It was green, black, and purple. It was a mixture of emotions. It wasn’t as if he didn’t see Xiao Baoxin’s intentions, but he still accepted it.
!!..
Presumably, she also understood why Xiao Baoxin would use this trick to divert the trouble.
However, she couldn’t reject this move. It was only temporary when she fought with Xiao Baoxin. This time, she would suffer in silence. Next time, every time, if Xie Laosan wanted to fight for his mistress again, he would have to lower his head and beg her.
Even if she hit him and pinched his seven inches, he would not dare to make a fuss.
The advantages outweighed the disadvantages.
As for the Second and Third household, by the time Third Master Xie finally realized that something was wrong, it was already half a month later. He had repeatedly asked Second Master Xie to drink with him, but he had been rejected.
Something happened?
Who has nothing to do at home? Painting flowers?
He was a minister of state who worked in and out every day. He wasn’t that busy at home.
Third Master Xie was a straightforward person. He said whatever he thought of, and he was even more fearless in front of his own family. In the end, Second Master Xie’s face turned green and he directly closed the door to send the guest off.
Why?
Painting flowers!
He wanted to paint a big garden, and he had plenty of paintings!
Xie San Ye was puzzled and went to find Madam Wang. Only then did he realize that it was his mouth that made the noise.”Then…That’s right. If I don’t say anything, can he pretend that he doesn’t know? The second branch was originally a concubine, but it didn’t affect my relationship with Second Brother. How could he be so petty?”
“Besides, that’s my son. What’s that? That’s his grandson. Their seniority was higher than his, so there was definitely a difference in the amount of silver.”
“No matter how big the difference is, it can’t be compared to a Di son.””You said it just now,” Madam Wang said coldly.”
“Yes,” Third Master Xie had yet to realize that there was a pit in front of him, behind him, left, right, waiting for him in all directions.
Madam Wang didn’t remind him. She would know the pain when the servants received their monthly payment.

In fact, other than Third Master Xie who jumped out to question the money needed to raise his son, no one else in the Xie family made any more comments. The eldest wife, Madam Yuan, was Xiao Baoxin’s biological mother-in-law. Now that she had grandchildren, everything was fine. The time she spent on cultivating scriptures and chanting Buddha had drastically decreased. Other than taking care of her children, she was taking care of them.
The Second household was born of a concubine and had never participated in the power struggles in the Xie residence.
As for the third wife, Madam Wang’s maiden family had fallen, and she did not have the confidence to fight for it. In addition, there was still Third Master Xie holding her back. Her own courtyard had not yet settled the matter, so she naturally did not have the heart to hinder Xiao Baoxin.
As the new year passed, the three wives of the Xie family were getting married.
The Fourth and Fifth Niangs of the Second household had their wedding dates set on the 10th and 20th of March respectively.
As for the Chu family’s seventh son, who was betrothed to the Third household’s Second Lady Xie and Xie Shan, he was originally also betrothed. If the young lady who was originally betrothed had not died of illness, they would have been betrothed long ago.
He and Xie Shan were both at the age of marriage. They were already fifteen years old and could not be delayed. The two families also picked a date. Because the wedding date was close to the second branch and she was older, it was not good to fall behind the third branch. She rushed to the eighth day of the third month, two days earlier than Xie Siniang.
Xiao Baoxin had just taken over and had to hold three marriages in a row. He was so busy that his feet hit the back of his head. Fortunately, Madam Yuan would guide him from time to time and Xie Wan would help him from the side, so he was not in a bad state.
At this moment, Empress Xiao sent a message from the palace. She had not seen Xiao Baoxin for a long time and asked her to choose a day to enter the palace to reminisce about the past.
When Xiao Baoxin held the one-month-old banquet, Empress Xiao had also rewarded her with a lot of things. She had also mentioned that she wanted her to enter the palace for a chat, but in her words, she wanted her to carry the child into the palace.
She didn’t even carry a child at home, so how could she coax a child to Empress Xiao just to take a look?
Without hesitation, she left her son behind and went to the palace the next day.
Xiao Ning lived in the Jiaofang Palace.
Originally, the palace of the crippled Wang was so magnificent, but now it was even more magnificent than before. Emperor Yong Ping wanted to show the honor of the Empress, and he didn’t want the crippled Wang to be the only beauty in front of him, so he moved all the valuable items to the Jiaofang Palace.
Empress Xiao was in the limelight.
Otherwise, it would not be like what the Eldest Princess of Xuancheng said, where the Fourth Consort would jump up and down to please the Emperor.
It was only when Xiao Baoxin entered the Jiaofang Palace and saw it with his own eyes that he knew that the rumors in the palace were true. It really had the posture of a middle palace, extremely luxurious and luxurious.
Because Xiao Bao was summoned into the palace, Xiao Ning had sent a letter to the Fourth Consort that she did not need to come to pay her respects. Therefore, although Xiao Baoxin arrived, he did not see the Fourth Consort. Instead, he left her on the spot. It took a full hour to see Xiao Ning arrive late.
Xiao Ning looked a little annoyed. Before Xiao Baoxin knelt down to pay his respects, she quickly raised her hand and said,
“Sister-in-law, please get up. There’s no need for the two of us to be polite.”She looked displeased.” The palace maids below are ignorant. I clearly told them that I was just taking a short rest and that they would quickly wake me up when sister-in-law came. In the end, they actually took the initiative to make sister-in-law wait for so long.””
“My Jiaofang Palace cannot afford such a palace maid. Guo Shangyi, chase that palace maid out of Jiaofang Palace and go to the laundry bureau.”
Guo Shangyi still had a stoic expression on his face.” The Empress has been tired recently. Cui Liu is also wholeheartedly devoted to the Empress.” But rules are rules, rules are rules, rules are rules After saying that, he looked at Xiao Bao Xin.
It seemed like he was waiting for her to say something good and do him a favor, so he could take advantage of the situation.
Xiao Baoxin was not in a good mood.
Why should she wait for an hour and then make her appear on stage to give them a way out?
She really didn’t think that Xiao Ning needed to show off her strength like this. At least Emperor Yong Ping and Xie Xian hadn’t fallen out yet, and Xiao Ning still needed the help of the Xie family in Jiankang, right?
“Guo Shangyi?” Xiao Ning glanced at Guo Shangyi.
“Still not going down?”
Guo Shangyi lowered her eyebrows and lowered her eyes before she went down.
“Sister-in-law, don’t worry. I… He was indeed tired these days and had no other intentions.”Xiao Ning knew Xiao Baoxin’s character. Instead of holding it in and hoping for a tacit understanding, it was better to wait in the city and be fair and square..
