“Thank you for your concern, Uncle, but Grandmother, Mother, and 1 have already made it clear that we will not get married.”Xie Xian said. “Let’s forget about this matter.”

Third Master Xie was anxious when he heard this.” What do you mean by that? You’re already twenty years old. If you don’t get married soon, our Xie residence will become a laughing stock.” No matter what you think, you have to get married first. If it really didn’t work…In the future, she would just adopt a son from another house.”

Xie Xian directly ignored the phrase ‘really can’t do’ and pretended not to understand.

He had proposed a marriage to the Third Furen’s niece. In the future, if ‘it really couldn’t be done,’ he would probably bring her over from the Second household. The two brothers had already calculated all the benefits, and they even used the excuse of doing it for his own good. What should he say? Thank Second Uncle and Third Uncle for their planning?

“Second Uncle’s Wuyi is now the internal history of Wu County? You’ve been married for many years?” he asked.

Xie San Ye was stunned. He didn’t expect Xie Xian to remember everything silently, even knowing where Wu Yi was working. He had thought that his nephew was so arrogant that he didn’t care about anyone.

“She’s three years older than you. She’s already married and has four or five children.”

“In the future, if I don’t have a son, I’ll pick a good one from the second branch.”Xie Xian had already decided on his future.

“That’s good.”

“Forget about the marriage-”

“Stop what? Tell me, do you want to marry that poor daughter of the Xiao family? This is absolutely not possible. Our Xie family will not marry into a lesser family! It doesn’t matter how much nonsense you’ve caused in the past. You can’t decide on the marriage. Our Xie family can’t afford to lose face!”

Third Master Xie did not mention Xiao Baoxin’s current reputation in Jiankang City. Even if her reputation was pure and flawless, the aristocratic families would not marry into the Humble Class. This was their bottom line!

Moreover, even a three-year-old child knew that Lady Xiao was arrogant and domineering. She would beat people up at the slightest disagreement.

That was even more impossible.

“No matter how much your grandmother and mother dote on you, they won’t let you mess around with marriage!”

When Third Master Xie mentioned Xiao Baoxin, it was as if he had been injected with chicken blood.

To Third Master Xie, defending his family’s bloodline was more exciting than defending his own reputation. This was a matter for the entire family. The Xie Clan had been intermarrying with the noble families for generations, which had caused the clans to be closely connected. Even if this generation was a useless talent, the next generation would always stand out and not be squeezed out of the noble families.

Just like Xie Xian, who had offended all the aristocratic families, Third Master Xie and the other members of the Xie family were not ostracized wherever they went. They still had their circle of friends. The Xie family was still strong.

However, if Xie Xian married a girl from a lesser family, then it would be different. He would be ostracized by the great clans.

And because of the rule that commoners should not marry, there had been precedents in the past. The aristocratic families had all attacked and eventually dismissed that person from his position. That was a second-rate family, different from their Xie family.

If they allowed Xie Xian to cause trouble this time, the Xie Clan would only suffer even more intense attacks. After all, the aristocratic families were led by Wang Xie. Once the Xie Clan took the lead to go against this consensus, not to mention those who hit them while they were down, even those who defended the reputation of the aristocratic families would not let them off.

“Xuanhui, I know that you have a lot of face in front of the emperor. You are a high official at a young age and have always been a man of your word. However, you can’t be too casual about marriage.”Third Master Xie tried his best to persuade him. What else could he do? He could scare his own child by slamming the table and glaring at him. However, Xie Xian did not change his expression and did not even flinch in front of the Emperor. Even if the Emperor was angry, others might not be afraid, let alone him.

If he said too much, he would cry. This uncle did not have any strength at all.

If Xie Xian’s marriage had not caused a shock to the entire family, he would not have flaunted his presence here!

“Did you hear that!”

Xie Xian was as unmoved as a mountain. He only smiled faintly.”I’ve already clarified the matter with Lady Xiao many times. It’s all a misunderstanding. Uncle, you don’t have to bring up the Xiao family. As for marriage, I have never planned to get married. Uncle need not worry. 1 will find a suitable marriage for Seventh Madame in the future.”

“You!” Xie San Ye stood up and pointed at Xie Xian, unable to speak for a long time.

What was the meaning of this? He was asking him not to extend his hand too far and meddle in their First Branch’s business.

“Xie Xian, is this how you act as a junior?”

Even though Xie Xian had never let him off easily, in the past, he had always given him some face and had never openly offended him. This time, he was ruthless and directly slapped him in the face.

This was stepping on his bottom line.

“If you hadn’t been so mischievous and forced the clan leader to come forward and ask us to express our stance, do you think I would be willing to care about you? You’ve never respected your elders and looked down on me, your uncle!”

Xie San Ye left in a huff and went back to vent his anger on Madam Wang. What niece of his maiden family? She was even closer to him. If she wasn’t even close to him, who else could she be close to?

“.. Didn’t you say that your chancellor was obtained by Dalang?”

“I don’t think so! It’s already good enough that he doesn’t drag me down. Didn’t you hear what he said? It’s simply like a dog biting Lu Dongbin. I don’t care about this marriage anymore. I’m a grown man, so why should I care about this? It’s a joke. If you want to get closer, go find the old lady and ask her to come forward!”

“Old lady…ln the past, he had said that any family’s daughter was fine.”Madam Wang whispered.

“The family that Old Lady mentioned is naturally a daughter from any aristocratic family.” Third Master Xie snorted coldly. How could I not know my mother? She looks easy-going, but she’s quite arrogant. She definitely doesn’t like that girl from the Xiao family. She doesn’t look like a girl. She’s a broken horse that flies. She’s not worthy of his grandson who’s like an eyeball.”

The couple chatted for a while more before Madam Wang finally calmed down.

However, Xie Xian was not at peace. He had just angered Third Master Xie and left. Before he could even move his butt, Madam Yuan came knocking on his door again.

Every time Lady Yuan visited, she would ask her maids to bring bird’s nest or shark’s fin, all of which were top-grade supplements for the body. This time, she only brought two maids, each holding a row of scrolls.

He spread them out and showed them to Xie Xian one by one.

“This is the Ninth Lady of the Gao family. She’s beautiful and intelligent, and she plays the zither well. That’s the Eighteenth Lady of the Xi family. She’s beautiful, like a jade girl sitting under a Bodhisattva. Also, this…”

“This mother has seen all of these and drew them based on her impression. See which one you like and mother will look at it?”

” Mother.” He could not use the same method he used to deal with Third Master Xie when dealing with his own mother, Xie Xian.” I’ve said it before, I don’t want to drag others down. 1 won’t get married in this life.”

Madam Yuan was not even forty years old yet, but her hair had already turned white. Although she had a beautiful and dignified appearance, she always gave people a cold feeling.

“Don’t say such words again. You’re using a knife to cut out my heart…Even if you…Mother Liu wanted to keep this marriage in mind.”

“Even if it’s the eldest lady of the Xiao clan…”
