Xiao Baoxin then talked about Censor Xiao’s situation.”
Imperial Physician Luo’s medical skills were superb. After a few needles, he saw the effect. However, he had not fully recovered yet. He did not know what would happen in the future. He was afraid that he would have to submit a memorial to retire.”
Mother Xie sighed. The censor is a kind father…”
He did not say anything else.
Fortunately, Imperial Censor Xiao had a good brother. If he didn’t have any foundation, his career would be over.
Even if I recover after a while, who will still remember you?
Sikong Xiao was different. The emperor was afraid that he would not be able to show mercy to those who had the merit of following the dragon.
However, Mother Xie didn’t like Censor Xiao’s attitude. How big of a matter did he have to make himself look crooked?
Which family didn’t have someone die before?
For example, she lost her husband in her middle age and her son in her old age. Who was as unlucky as her? She had experienced the two greatest hardships of life. When was it not heartbreaking?
But what could he do? Gritting his teeth, he still had a family.
If she fell, what would happen to the Xie family? Even now, she gritted her teeth and lived on. Her grandson was at a critical period in his career. If she died, she would have to mourn for at least a year.
After a year, the new had replaced the old, and the Xie family’s foundation had yet to stabilize.
No matter how much he owed the royal family, it was nothing.
If he was like Imperial Censor Xiao who had lost his mind, the Xie family would have been finished long ago.
In the end, he couldn’t write the word ‘Xiao’ in one stroke. It wasn’t convenient for Imperial Censor Xiao and Xiao Baoxin’s family to talk about this.
It wasn’t that she was mean, but it wasn’t that she hadn’t seen Second Lady Xiao before. Just looking at the things she had done, it was enough to disgust people when it reached her ears.
So what if he died?
Now, the one who was truly in trouble was the Third Lady of the Xiao family. She had just married over and had not even kicked the first three feet away, but she had already lost her official position at the father’s side…
It was still the same sentence, having a good brother.
With Sikong Xiao’s face, he wouldn’t make things difficult for Third Lady Xiao. Of course, this still depended on Lady Xiao’s status in the Xiao family and Sikong Xiao’s temperament. Was he willing to give his niece a facelift?
The Xi family was still decent, with Chief Justice Xi suppressing them. However, it was inevitable that the hearts of the younger generation would waver.
The same rice could feed a hundred different people. The Xi family did not praise the high and step on the low, but it did not mean that the people below were the same.
Mother Xie was born in the Xiao family of Lanling. She married into the Xie family of Chen County, which was also a noble family, when she was an adult. She had been in the aristocratic families all her life. What had she not experienced and seen?
Most of the time, the people below were even more white than red. When they were bullied, they had nowhere to complain.
“The most important thing now is the censor’s health. If you need any rare herbs, just tell your third aunt.”
“You don’t have to worry about the Chu family’s matters. Your mother-in-law is here. He couldn’t let her be lazy and stay in that broken courtyard. At such a young age, she already looked like she had seen through the world and was aloof from the world. What did she look like? Do you want to become an immortal or a Buddha?”
“It’s not like I don’t have any desires. I’m just thinking about this and that in my heart…”
“I have to find something for her to do. It’ll be even better if you give birth in the future. If you find it annoying, send it to your mother-in-law and let her watch over it!”
Xiao Baoxin actually felt that throwing the Zhou Consortium out was a great humiliation. It was as if he had thrown it out too late, and the matter had become small.
Thinking back to how he had gone all out and put all his eggs in one basket, why did it seem like…What a joke.
From Grandmother’s words, she seemed to have done her duty of filial piety by stirring up this matter.
It was so touching.
“If the mother-in-law is willing to help take care of the child, I will naturally be happy to let go.”Xiao Baoxin smiled sincerely as if he had thrown a hot potato.
The most sincere words.
The Zhen in her stomach was indeed her own flesh and blood, but she was in her thirties and forties. She had more experience, including skin aging, than her. If she were to hug and coax him, she was afraid that her heart was not strong enough to carry him.
Awkward.
I’m also worried. His eldest daughter was even older than his biological mother…
This was a mess. He was thinking about how food would be a problem in the future. He could not eat it. He didn’t even dare to think about such a miserable state in his mother’s arms and deliberately ignored it.
He had no choice but to ignore it. If he thought about it carefully, he would die.
The heavens had given the two of them a hard time.
With Mother Xie’s suggestion, there was another way out.
How could he pretend in front of a stranger? His mother knew everything about him. He still wanted to keep his old face. He was afraid that his life would not be easy.
The mother and son heaved a sigh of relief because of Mother Xie’s half-truth teasing, but Mother Xie treated her as a young and inexperienced woman.
“You agreed so quickly now, but I’m afraid you won’t be able to bear it when the child is born.”
She was willing…
“If mother-in-law is busy, I’ll send it to grandmother.”He looked like he was in a hurry to get rid of it.
Mother Xie was overjoyed.”
When she said this, Mother Xie treated her as a child even more. Was she treating a child like a puppy? If she couldn’t give him away here, she would give him away there.
However, she was happy in her heart. In Mother Xie’s eyes, this was considered as entertaining her parents in colorful clothes. She didn’t take it seriously at all. It was rare to have such filial piety to tease her.
The old man and the young man were chatting and laughing when they heard laughter coming from outside the house.”Grand Furen is old but strong. Hearing this loud laughter, it is much harder than my body. Longevity was already considered low, at least 120 yuan.”
Another one who could talk.
Before he could finish speaking, Madam Yuan and Madam Chu Yuan walked in one after another. The one who spoke was none other than Madam Chu Yuan.
“Yo, Bao Xin is here too? I told you that you were the only one who could make Mrs. Hunt smile so happily.”
After greeting Mother Xie, Chu Yuanshi pulled Xiao Baoxin along to talk. She didn’t even let Xiao Baoxin greet her,””Now that you have a body, you have to be delicate. Don’t be so polite. We’re not outsiders.”
Xiao Baoxin didn’t know if he was saying good or bad things.
Seeing that Chu Yuanshi had come, it was definitely because of the Zhou Consortium incident yesterday. With a face full of spring breeze, it was likely that he had gotten what he wanted and did not bend to him. It was not suitable for Xiao Baoxin to stay any longer.
Unlike Chu Yuanshi, who wanted to stand up for the Zhou Consortium and regain face for the Chu family, she would definitely take responsibility for it.
She didn’t want to join in the fun.
If she was really here to make peace with the Xie family, it would be difficult for Chu Yuanshi to speak with a junior like her.
“Aunt must have something to say to Grandmother. I won’t accompany you any longer and will leave first.”
Before Mother Xie could say anything, Madam Yuan nodded.
“You should go back and rest first. You’re tired after a busy morning.”
Xiao Baoxin walked out of the door and heard Chu Yuanshi ask curiously,” Why would I trouble your precious baby?”
Chu Yuanshi had been busy with the Zhou Consortium’s matters for half the night. She had only just freed herself to make a trip to the Xie family. She really did not notice the direction of the news outside..
