Lady Yuan had always known that when Xie Xian had expressed his request to Xie Shi Zhong to marry the eldest daughter of the Xie Clan, the couple had unanimously opposed it. However, in the blink of an eye, everything changed. Xie Shi Zhong died, and Xie Xian had been in mourning for three years. After that, no matter how he was asked to get married, he was unwilling.
She didn’t know how much of this was because she didn’t want to make do with anyone other than Lady Xiao.
However, he was her only son now. This was the only thought she had in the world. She did not care about the secular world or the improper marriage. She could not give up her son just to save the family’s face and help others.
“As long as you want to marry Lady Xiao, Mother will go to your door and ask for your hand in marriage!”Mrs. Yuan was going all out. For the sake of her son, get lost.
First, it was Xiao Baoxin’s flirtation in the car, and then his mother’s bold words. Xie Xianzhi sighed with emotion and his eyes were wet.
He met the best woman in the world and the best mother.
” Mother.” Xie Xian calmed down slightly, but his body gradually turned cold.
He wanted to show off, but his physical fitness was there. She had just been drenched in the rain, but her body was already a little cold. How was he supposed to support her family and shelter her from the storm with this body?
Even if he was alive, as long as he was dead, Xiao Baoxin would have to face the entire Xie family, like Third Master Xie. Right now, he was still the Xie Clan’s Patriarch, yet they were already jumping up and down, looking down on the Xiao Clan’s background. Once he died, he simply didn’t dare to imagine how Xiao Baoxin would be mistreated.
How selfish was he to drag her into such a situation?
Since he couldn’t protect her forever, he might as well set her free. She was so beautiful, and there would always be people who would treat her sincerely.
“If 1 like Lady Xiao, I will marry her even if anyone objects. In the past, he was just young and ignorant. He did something foolish when he was ignorant, and it was only a joke.”
“I don’t want to get married. Mother, you only need to know this.”
As for whether the outside world could spread rumors about him, it was up to him. If thinking like this could kill off his mother’s thoughts, then so be it.
As expected, Xie Xian successfully drew Madam Yuan’s attention elsewhere.
“Ahem.” Xie Xian really couldn’t help but cough.” Mother, I’m not feeling well, so I’ll go rest first.””
At this moment, Madam Yuan could not care less about his marriage. She quickly called Qingfeng Mingyue in to take care of him.”Take good care of her at night. If she has a fever, hurry up and call the doctor.”
After a while, Lady Yuan left with two maids carrying the portrait. Before she left, she gave Ming Yue a look.
Xie Xian had already laid down in the room. Seeing that there was nothing for him to do, Ming Yue turned around and followed him out.
Walking out of the house, the rain did not stop at all. The autumn wind was so strong that even Madam Yuan felt cold.
“Where did you go today? Why did you come back so late and get drenched in the rain?”Madam Yuan asked.
“He went to the Xiao family.”
“Xiao clan?” Madam Yuan was surprised. Could it be that she had been chased away when she went to propose marriage? That was why her heart was like ashes. Her son had rejected her when she went to propose marriage personally?
In the blink of an eye, she thought that it was impossible. The mistress of the Xiao family was not that blind. Anyone with eyes could see the good in her son. As long as her son wanted it, there was no reason for others not to agree.
“Are you going to see Lady Xiao?” she asked.
This…
How should he answer?
Ming Yue’s young face was filled with hesitation.’Tomorrow, the Xiao family will invite Master Lang over, saying that their Erlang has some academic questions to ask Master Lang. And then…l also met Lady Xiao.”
Madam Yuan frowned.” The Xiao family invited someone over to meet Lady Xiao?”
What kind of family style was this?
“No, no, no, no!” Ming Yue shook her head like a wavy drum, afraid that her words would ruin the image of their master’s sweetheart.
“Master Lang and Lady Xiao met in private.”
“Meet in private?” Madam Yuan’s frown deepened. It was raining so heavily. How could a man and a woman meet on their own?
Ming Yue was about to cry. Why did he feel like he had said too many wrong things? The most serious thing was that he did not know what he had done wrong.
Fortunately, Mrs. Yuan did not continue to ask. He suspected that if Mrs. Yuan continued to ask, he would sell out his master.
“You should take care of Xuan Hui more. In the future, on a day like this, don’t let him walk around if you can. I didn’t ask you to come here to see Jing ‘er. If you have nothing to do, come back frequently. If you don’t, you’ll get sick in the rain like today. You know your master’s health well. He can’t withstand such torture.”
Ming Yue thought to herself. He had to be able to be Lord Lang’s master, right? This person was a righteous person. Even eight bulls wouldn’t be able to pull him back. Moreover, since it was about Lady Xiao, his master had never given in.
The nanny behind Lady Yuan put on a straw raincoat for her and reminded her that it was time to leave.
“It’s cold at night, Furen should go back.”
“.. Do you think your Young Master likes Lady Xiao?”Mrs. Yuan asked one last time.
Ming Yue:” That’s a great favor.”
What was it? Was Madam going to fulfill Lord Lang’s wish?
Her small face was filled with excitement and nervousness. He realized that he had said something wrong again.
“Madam,”
This time, Madam Yuan did not reply to him. She turned around and looked at Xie Xian’s room thoughtfully, then left with a group of maids and old women.
Before Ming Yue could turn around, Qing Feng slapped her on the neck.
“You brat, don’t say things that you shouldn’t say if I don’t tell you? What if you cause trouble for Master Lang? Do you know what Madam means? With our master holding the fort, there’s nothing we can’t do. Do you need to talk here?!” Ming Yue felt wronged.
“But, 1 was sent by Madam to take care of Master at all times. Madam asked me, so how could I not say it?”
Alright, Qing Feng slapped his own mouth. He was used to being by his side and still thought that he was only loyal to the Lang Master because he was the Lang Master’s manservant. In the end, Ming Yue still remembered her background and knew everything about her. She recognized her old master!
“Good brother, don’t tell Master. 1 think 1 said something wrong, but 1 don’t know what I said wrong.”
“..”Qing Feng glared at him fiercely. How should he put it? It was also Master Lang who could not bear to hurt Madam and Old Madam’s hearts. Otherwise, it would be strange if he could keep a traitor like Ming Yue, who was neither stupid nor a woman.
“Alright, you’re on your own.”
With that, Qingfeng returned to his room.
Only Brightmoon was left standing outside the eaves, listening to the sounds of rain, thunder, and wind. It was cold beside him.
He just didn’t understand. Master Lang clearly liked Lady Xiao and was scratching his heart every day. He had already painted and burned countless portraits of Lady Xiao. Why bother? It was the right thing to marry her as soon as possible.
If he really waited for Lady Xiao to get married, he was afraid that he wouldn’t even be able to meet her secretly. When that time came, he would see her husband singing along with her wife. They were a beautiful couple who hugged each other in a year. His husband was alone and secretly drew her portrait. That would be called inhumane.. Wouldn’t his intestines turn green with
