Chapter 57 Confrontation
Yuan Shi, Xiao Shi and the others stood aside, looking at each other in blank dismay, not knowing what the purpose of coming from the palace was?
Soon, a servant girl came over and bent her knees, "Return to the old lady, the eldest girl said, she will not go to the front to receive the order, the old lady punished the eldest girl to shut up and think about her mistakes, and the eldest girl dare not go out!"
"Hmph, if you don't go, you won't go. Without her, this day will not last?"
The old lady didn't know that the order was for Xie Zhiwei, so she helped the servant girl's hand and hurried forward. Shen Shuang walked over quickly and almost bumped into the old lady, "Old lady, the old lady has spoken, the order is for For the eldest girl, the old lady must hurry up and take the eldest girl to the front to receive the order."
The old lady immediately stood where she was, "What did you say? The order is for the eldest girl?"
"Yes, the eldest girl has cured Master Lu, and the emperor issued a decree to reward the eldest girl, old lady, this angel can't afford to offend, and I can't keep people waiting!"
In this family, there is not only the head of the family. If the head of the house harms his two sons, the loss outweighs the gain!
The old lady is used to making calculations, she trembled in her heart, and shouted at Yuan Shi, "Hurry up and get the eldest girl out!"
"Mother, my daughter-in-law is going to invite her. The eldest girl is afraid that she won't come out, so the person who sent to invite her also said that the eldest girl said that the old lady punished her to close the door and think about her mistakes. If there is no old lady, how dare the eldest girl go out?"
"What do you mean, I, the old lady, should invite her in person?" The old lady was so angry that she almost fainted. If it wasn't for the close relationship, she would pass out now.
But she can't faint yet.
Ahead, another servant girl came to urge her. No matter who the person who came to pass the decree was, it was an angel.
If you neglect the angel and offend the emperor, then you will be punished all over the house.
The old lady took a deep breath, turned around and walked towards the east, and came to the door of Qizhaoyuan, and saw the daughter-in-law who was dozing by the door, "Where are you girls?"
The daughter-in-law shivered in fright, and immediately woke up, "Returning to the old lady, the girl is thinking behind closed doors."
Xie Zhiwei, who closed the door and thought about the past, has already washed and dressed. Although she is sitting in the house, the affairs of the Xie family are all in front of her eyes. She knows that there is an imperial decree ahead, and she also knows that she is looking for her. She thought it was the emperor's decree. Let her go to treat Lu Yan.
The courtyard door was opened, but the old lady did not come in, but stood at the door and waited.
Naturally, Xie Zhiwei couldn't let the old lady wait at the door, so she hurried out and stood in the yard to greet the old lady, "The granddaughter apologized to the old lady, the granddaughter closed the door and thought about her past mistakes, and couldn't leave the hospital to meet the old lady, please sit in the old lady's room, and the granddaughter will give her a hand. The old lady serves tea."
"I'm afraid I can't afford the tea you served. An angel came up ahead, and the old man asked you to go out together to receive the order. Come with me!"
I really don’t know what the old lady was thinking, the old lady was full of anger, she just accepted the order, she insisted on Xie Zhiwei go out to pick it up, for fear that others would not know that the eldest daughter of the family is Xie Zhiwei.
"Old lady, my granddaughter is thinking about her mistakes behind closed doors and dare not go out." Xie Zhiwei blessed her body again, and took two steps back.
Could it be that she sued the old man in today's scene?
The old lady also felt that this was a bit unbelievable. The old man is such a shrewd person, how could he make fun of the whole family in front of the angel?
"Grandma wronged you before, Sister Wei, for the sake of grandma's age and confusion, you should not be as knowledgeable as grandma."
Xie Zhiwei shook his head, with tears in his eyes, "Old lady, granddaughter didn't complain whether she did something right or wrong, no matter how old lady punished her. It's just that my mother has passed away for so many years, and she gave birth to her granddaughter. If she is dead, the granddaughter is not blessed, she will not be able to be raised by her mother for a day, and she will be raised in front of the old lady, if the granddaughter violates the rules, what will she do with her mother?"
It means, I was raised by you since I was a child, even if I did something wrong, it is because of your poor education.
The old lady can't do anything else. She talks too much when pointing fingers and scolding dogs. She can understand when others say it.
The old lady was trembling with anger, but right now, she had no choice but to give in. Xie Zhiwei is single, her mother is gone, and her father has not been with her since she was a child, how much affection can she have?
That's why she was able to threaten her with this.
Mrs. Xiao was also sweating all over in a hurry, and whispered in the old lady's ear, "Old lady, the angel has waited long enough, now is really not the time to worry about it. There will be plenty of opportunities in another day."
The old lady could only swallow her anger, "It's grandma who is old and confused. Your mother was good, but her fortune was a little bit poor. Since ancient times, it is not wrong to say that a beauty is unlucky. Today, grandma apologizes to you. There is no need to think about it behind closed doors. I mentioned it. You should follow grandma to the front, if you wait any longer, your grandfather will not be able to bear it anymore."
Xie Zhiwei has always been a person who judges the situation, not to mention, she will not really bet on Xie's family, she will accept it when she sees it, so she stroked her skirt and followed the old lady to the main hall to receive the order.
The old man really couldn't sit still anymore, he drank two cups of tea, and sent three groups of people to urge him, but Xie Zhiwei hadn't come yet. I don't know what's going on with the old lady. The child is not sensible. Could it be that she is also living on a dog at her age?
"Master Xie, don't urge me any more. If you urge the eldest girl to walk in a hurry, there will be troubles, and our family can't afford it."
If this is the case, Master Lu must kill him?
In Li Baozhen's line of work, the most important skill is to observe the situation and judge the situation. When Lu Yan was away, Li Baozhen served the emperor personally. Lu Yan returned to Beijing on the third day after being injured. After entering the palace, he only did two things. The second thing is to get this title for Miss Xie.
This shows what?
Lu Yan was an orphan since he was a child. After entering the palace, he was clever in doing things, and because he spotted the assassin in advance and saved the emperor's life, he was appointed by the emperor to be Lu Huaizhong's adopted son. The seventeen-year-old envoy won the respect and trust of the emperor.
Lu Yan said that there is no weakness in the whole body, he is not greedy for money, he is not greedy for sex, and on weekdays, everyone can't be flattered if he wants to. Now that there is Miss Xie, Li Baozhen and the others will let go of such a good opportunity?
Xie Tiao broke out in a layer of cold sweat. How could these eunuchs treat their eldest granddaughter so well? Could it be that the emperor said something again?
Xie Zhiwei finally came, Li Baozhen hurriedly stood up, passed the old face of the old lady surrounded by Xiao and others in front, saw Miss Xie who was walking at the end, and hurriedly said hello, "Miss Xie!"
