Chapter 690 Brother
Xie Zhiwei couldn't help laughing, "You're a man, I didn't expect you to be so small-minded. If you work under my hands, you can help me take care of yourself now. If it wasn't for your own good, would I let you work in front of your elder brother?" ?”
Xiao Wei rubbed his head embarrassingly, he raised his head, and smiled foolishly at Xie Zhiwei, when he heard someone cough lightly, he hurriedly looked over and saw his elder brother standing under the eaves looking at him.
"Come here!"
Xiao Wei froze for a moment, still looking at his sister-in-law habitually, Xie Zhiwei nodded at him and winked, he had to move forward step by step, and when he reached Xiao Xun, Xiao Xun kicked her. Past, "Can't it be faster?"
Xiao Wei endured it abruptly. Fortunately, Xiao Xun didn't really want to kick him, and it didn't hurt too much. Instead, Xiao Wei lowered his head and secretly smiled.
Xie Zhiwei shook his head involuntarily. He didn't understand the affection between their brothers, but it was always touching and wanted to be cherished.
The banquet was placed in the main hall, and a few more braziers were set up. As soon as you entered, it was warm. There were several pots of wintersweet bonsai in the room. The fragrance was fumigated and permeated the room, mixed with the faint scent of sweet-scented osmanthus wine. The wine has not been drunk yet. , people are already drunk.
"elder sister!"
Xie Mingxi walked to the door, shook off his mother's hand, and rushed towards Xie Zhiwei.
Xie Zhiwei hurriedly held him back, seeing that his hands and face were clean, he asked, "Didn't practice martial arts today? Why are they so clean?"
Xie Zhihui smiled and said, "I just washed it."
After Xie Mingxi followed, because he hadn't found a husband yet, he temporarily studied with Yu Yingzhi. Yu Yingzhi now has only two students, one is Xie Mingxi and the other is his own son.
From ancient times to the present, just like doctors who do not heal themselves, even great Confucians rarely teach their sons well. Because of this, Yu Yingzhi died of sorrow. Later, I heard that His Royal Highness Chen Wang was thirsty for talents, so Xie Zhiwei entrusted Wang to help him. Jiangnan asked for a scholar to come over, so he hurriedly wrote a letter to his old friend, asking him to come to the west to build his career.
"Mother!" Xie Zhiwei saluted Yuan Shi, and said, "Mother and sister go to my room to sit for a while, the prince and the empress are talking, Master Lu went back there to rest first, and we will start the banquet later."
"What are you going to do in your room? Let's sit in the side room over there for a while. It happens that a row of red plums is blooming well in front of the door. Make us a cup of tea. It's just right to drink tea while sitting and admiring the flowers."
Xie Zhiwei sat beside her, and she said with great regret, "Mother, Ah Xun said that he will leave his father in Xiliang to take charge of the overall situation, and he will not be able to come back for the New Year this year. If mother and younger brother miss him, I will send mother and younger brother to Xiliang to visit in spring." Father."
Yuan's old face blushed, and she was extremely embarrassed, "Whatever you think, you are an old couple. Besides, the prince can let your father preside over the overall situation in Xiliang. That is because he respects your father. What are your brother and I going to do? Are you holding back?"
Yuan felt that although she couldn't see her husband all the time, she was very happy living here. She could see her daughter every day, and her son was well-behaved and she didn't need her to worry about her. Well, a family like Xie's family really gave her a headache.
Mr. Yuan has gained a lot of weight recently, so Xie Zhiwei asked his younger brother to urge his mother to walk for more than half an hour after meals every day. After walking for more than ten days, Yuan's spirit has improved a lot.
She likes here very much, and likes this kind of unfettered life.
Looking after her husband and raising her son also made her not care whether her husband could come back. It would be great if she could come back for the New Year.
After she read the letter, she felt a little sad, but it didn't make her sad. Later, when her father wrote another letter, she simply put the matter aside.
It's just that she didn't expect that Xu Liang didn't come back with her. She thought that she could catch a glimpse of Xu Liang anyway.
Xie Zhiwei saw his younger sister's expression in his eyes, smiled meaningfully, and said, "Second sister, I heard that Yongxin Bo Shizi has made great achievements this time, are you happy?"
Xie Zhihui blushed, looked away, "Big sister is getting more and more annoying!"
Xie Mingxi snorted, turned around and hugged her sister, "Sister, second sister doesn't like you, I like you!"
Xie Zhiwei said "Okay" and patted his younger brother's head.
Xie Zhihui said from the side, "Fifth brother, after the new year, you will be one year older. From now on, don't always follow the big sister. Look at you, what do you look like?"
Xie Mingxi puffed up his mouth in displeasure. However, he is a very sensible child. Although he was very unhappy, he still left Xie Zhiwei's side and sat on the chair in an orderly manner.
In Rong's room, Xiao Wei knelt on the futon and kowtowed to Rong. Rong said, "Get up, your elder brother asked you to come, not to kowtow to me. Speaking of it, it is my mother and son who are sorry for you mother and son."
Xiao Wei was dumbfounded when he heard that, he raised his eyes and saw Huaying crying, the number of times he has seen Huaying is very few, and he has never looked at this person carefully, at this time, seeing her, only How could this person be so familiar to him!
Rong pointed to the jacaranda and said, "She is your mother. What happened back then has a reason. All these years, your mother and son have lived under the same roof, but she has never shown any kindness to you. It's not because she doesn't want to, but because She dare not!"
Speaking of this, Rong's eyes became hot, "She did this to protect me and your elder brother, so, I said, it is my mother and son who are sorry for your mother and son."
Xiao Wei was shocked immediately, he raised his head, looked at this and that, as if in a dream.
Jacaranda rushed over, and threw herself at Rong's feet, "Your Majesty, stop talking, if it weren't for you, there would be no Jacaranda!"
Rong held Huaying's arm, trying to pull her up, "Stop talking about this, after all, it's fate!"
Rong looked at Xiao Wei and said, "Son, if you have any resentment in your heart, just resent me and your elder brother. Your mother's heart has been hurting a lot these years. Look at her, she has more wrinkles on her face than mine, and the pimples on her head She also has more gray hair than me, how many times she went to see you secretly, after reading it, she came back and cried all night, and now her eyes are not good."
"Don't hate her!"
Xiao Wei didn't know what to say, he lowered his head, when he was scolded by others, his mother was listening, and when he was being bullied, his mother might have been watching , when he resented his own life experience, his mother was crying beside him.
It's not that she doesn't want to, but that she doesn't dare!
He raised his head, "Brother, is he the one with seven stars?"
The second update!
