In reality, Xiao Baoxin and Xie Xian did not stay outside the Yi An Hall for long. After all, there were so many pairs of eyes in the residence, and their skin was not as thick as that of the servants.
At least, Xiao Baoxin didn’t think so.
Originally, Xie Xian wanted to bring her around the Xie residence, but when he recalled Madam Yuan’s words, his heart was filled with heartache for his son. Xiao Baoxin also saw that Xie Xian’s expression was not as good as yesterday, so he pulled him back to Rong An Hall.
Her mother-in-law had just taught her adult education with a big red face. Her little heart was still beating up and down. She did not want to tire him out again. When the time came, he would grab her and say that it was all her fault.
Xie Xian wanted to explain that his body wasn’t that weak, but when he saw Xiao Baoxin’s swift steps, he felt that his words were stuck in his throat and couldn’t say them. Compared to Xiao Baoxin, his body was indeed not as good as his.
His eyes darkened, feeling sorry for her.
“I heard from Liuniang that you spent a lot of effort to rebuild Rong An Hall. When we go back and rest, can you bring me around in the afternoon?”Xiao Baoxin was in high spirits. The young couple chatted as they walked and soon arrived at Rong An Hall.
Xiao Baoxin couldn’t see clearly last night. He woke up late in the morning and didn’t have time at all. Now that he looked at it, the scenery was indeed extraordinary, and he seemed to have put in a lot of effort.
“1’11 walk with you now. This place isn’t big.”Xie Xian saw that Xiao Baoxin’s beautiful big eyes were almost unable to move away, and the uneasiness in his heart disappeared.
Xiao Baoxin shook his head.” It’s better to wait a little longer. Let’s go to Second Madam’s place to say hello first.””
The bride was supposed to meet the elders of her in-laws the next day, but Lady Cai was pregnant, so she didn’t meet them. It was already very awkward.
Madam Cai could choose not to come, but she had to go.
Otherwise, it would be her fault for being rude. If word got out, it would be her fault for being arrogant and disrespectful to her elders.
She was upright, upright, and unafraid of others ‘words, but she couldn’t do something that was clearly reasonable. Moreover, who couldn’t have a true temperament? What if Lady Cai was pregnant and it was inconvenient for her to go so far away from Yi An Hall? She couldn’t just assume that she was targeting her. She had to find out what was going on.
How could Xie Xian not know Xiao Baoxin’s unfinished words? He understood it better than anyone else.
However, he could not say anything. They were juniors, so this was what they should do.
“It’s inconvenient for me to accompany you to the inner courtyard’s back house. Just sit for a while and come back. Don’t disturb Second Shen’s rest.”
Xiao Baoxin pursed his lips into a smile. This person was not afraid of disturbing Second Aunt’s rest. He was clearly worried that she would be put in a difficult position and did not want to say it out loud. Instead, he used Madam Cai as an introduction. His heart could not help but feel sweet.
Following that, Xie Xian ordered Qing Feng to prepare a congratulatory ceremony for Xiao Baoxin to bring over.
He was as meticulous as dust.
Xiao Baoxin looked at Xie Xian’s torment happily. Actually, this was what she should do, but he had his own reasons for snatching it, so she let him do as he pleased.
“Second Aunt, I don’t know much about that person, but All Niang doesn’t like her and thinks she’s petty. The daughter he taught was not bad either. She was very clingy to the third branch.”Usually, Xie Xian was unwilling to gossip about the family, especially when it was the matters of his own residence. However, because Xiao Baoxin had just married into the Xie family, he could not help but worry about everything for her.
“You can ask Seventh Madame about the matters in the back of the house. Whether it’s the second or third branch, you know what to do. This family will be in your hands sooner or later.” Xie Xian directly said.
Xiao Baoxin was taken aback. She was saying all this on her first day of marriage. Did he trust her ability too much, or did he not trust the third household too much?
“You don’t like it?” he asked.
“Not really.” Xiao Baoxin took a sip of tea to calm herself down. She just didn’t expect him to be so impatient.
Xie Xian smiled. Every noble daughter had to learn how to manage the family before they got married. Although the Xiao family was not a big family, it was the trend now. Regardless of background, after marrying someone, they had to establish a family to live. It was just that their family was big and it was more difficult to manage than ordinary families.
“Grandmother thinks highly of the eldest branch. Even if Abba passed away, he did not let Third Uncle succeed as the head of the family. Instead, he chose me against everyone else. Our chief branch will be duty-bound to lift up the pillar of the Xie family.”
“After father passed away, mother’s heart was filled with grief and she was bedridden for half a year, her heart like dead ashes. Although she gradually recovered, she was still a chastity husband and it was inconvenient for her to show her face when socializing with the various aristocratic families, so she handed it over to Third Shen to take charge of the family. Third Shen was generous and was very popular among servants. However, being too generous would produce laziness, and laziness would easily nourish corruption.”
“I’m a man, so it’s not convenient for me to casually interfere in the matters of the rear residence. From now on, I’ll hand all of this to Xiao. Although Xiao is young, he is tenacious, decisive, and not inferior to men. I believe that you will definitely purge the harem.”
Today, Mother Xie had also mentioned that she would be in charge of the middle-aged feed, and Xie Xian had mentioned it again. How dissatisfied was this with Madam Wang?
Thinking about how Madam Wang’s face froze when she heard Mother Xie’s words, Xiao Baoxin felt pain for her. It could be seen that Madam Wang was very fond of power. Otherwise, it would be impossible for Madam Wang to not give up her power even after Madam Yuan’s funeral.
This was great. His new wife had just entered the house and his butt had yet to warm up, yet he was already thinking about her…
Being attacked by their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law–
In fact, it was not the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, but Xie Xian, who was concerned about the two of them. It was obvious that they were attacked by the mother and son.
“Thank you for your attention, Chang Shi. Baoxin is deeply honored.”Xiao Baoxin stood up and pretended to bow, formally acknowledging Xie Xian.
Xie Xian smiled and went forward to hold her hand.
“Why, you’re not called Qing Qing anymore?”
He raised his voice slightly at the end of his sentence, giving off a light, flirtatious vibe.
Xiao Baoxin raised his eyebrows. If there was flirting, others would not have any reaction. Did he have to make a big red face first? Are you transferring someone else or yourself?
‘Nora.’
‘.. Nora.
She didn’t say anything else. She called her Qingqing more than ten times in her heart. The more she called her, the more lingering she became. Her heart softened into a puddle of water. The sulky Xie Xuanhui!
“Nora.” Xiao Baoxin’s playful heart was aroused. He raised his feet and kissed his lips. Then, he watched as his eyes suddenly widened and his heart thumped.
She really heard his heartbeat. She was too close.
“Wait for me to come back and play with Nora, okay, Nora?”
Xie Xian swallowed his saliva. He was obviously thinking about those scenes that were not suitable for children last night.
‘Dao begets one, one begets two, two begets three, three begets all things…’
‘Why is there such a beautiful, alluring, and gentle woman like Qingqing in all things? She charms his entire mind, and he can’t wait to hand her over to his palm, hold her in his mouth, and keep her in his heart!’
Tang Li fell. She couldn’t live like this anymore. There were still people in the house. Was it really good to be so showy?
Or did they not have a sense of existence?
“Ahem.”
However, he did not expect that these two voices would not be able to warn Xiao Baoxin and would instead make Xie Xian confess.”You guys can leave first.”
What was he doing in broad daylight?
