Chapter 833: Overthinking
Because Xie Wan had suddenly been diagnosed with pregnancy, Mother Xie asked her to stay for dinner and sent someone to inform the Zhuge residence Before dinner was over, Zhuge Shu, who had received the news, came to the Xie residence with gritted teeth. As soon as he entered Wuyi Alley, he realized that his current appearance was inappropriate. Although it was a good thing to be pregnant, his mother-in-law had just died. If he dared to enter the Xie residence with his teeth bared, the Xie family would dare to beat him out until he could not take care of himself.
She restrained her smile before she dared to greet Mother Xie.
Xie Wan had long returned to the courtyard where she originally lived Ever since she got married, only Wang Qiang and her son, Chu An, lived in the courtyard. They lived in seclusion every day and rarely appeared in front of others.
However, this was a joyous occasion for him. It was impossible to expose Wang Qiang even if he exposed anyone.
They had known each other since they were young, and they were even closer than biological sisters.
^expected, when Wang Qiang heard this, she actually cried happily for Xie
Chu An was already six years old. Wang Qiang had sent him to the Academy at the beginning of the year. He had made some progress in half a year. When Mother Xie asked about it today, Madam Wang said,
“Ah An has grown up. Shouldn’t we find a courtyard for her and separate her?” Mother Xie nodded. Madam Wang was thoughtful.
He didn’t expect that when the Wang family of Langya fell, Xie Laosan would become more and more out of tune as he aged. It made the Wang family more thoughtful and considerate.
“As an aunt, you’re good.” As she spoke, she looked at Wang Qiong. She knew that this mother and daughter depended on each other. Logically speaking, they should have started when they were six years old. However, Wang Qiong had never mentioned it. She did not know if it was because she was unwilling to part with them or because she was too focused and was living under someone else s roof. It was not easy for her to say it.
“If you don’t object, let your aunt make the decision to vacate a courtyard In my opinion, we have many boys in our family. Ah Tiao is almost six years old In the future, Ah Yan and Ah Qi will also have to move out. Why don’t we find a few courtyards connected together so that they can live closer to each other? They can take care of each other and it will be convenient for them to come and go.”
Wang Qiong was originally hesitant to find an opportunity to move out of the Xie family. She couldn’t live under someone else’s roof for the rest of her life but when Madam Yuan suddenly passed away, she shut her mouth.
The entire Xie family was shrouded in a depressing atmosphere. How could she be bothered by that little thing?
Now that Mother Xie mentioned it, she didn’t know what to do.
Should he bring it up or not?
Grandmother,” she hesitated.” Actually, I want to bring Ah An to find a house in Jiankang City to stay in. It’s close to his academy, and it doesn’t have to be so troublesome.””
Mother Xie’s face fell before she could finish her sentence.
“Why? Ah Lang has just stepped down from his position, and you think the Xie family doesn’t have the ability to protect you and your son?”
Wang Qiong panicked. She didn’t mean it like that. Was Great Madam imagining things too much?
Xie Xian was in power, also… There was no need to bail her out. She was not a criminal.
Grandmother, Ah Qiang didn’t mean it that way. I, I, I, I am-” “Are you treating Grandmother as an outsider and feeling uncomfortable living in Grandmother’s house? Tell me, who gave you a hard time? I can’t beat her to death!”
As she spoke, she swept her eyes around. Madam Wang and Madam Cai also grimaced at her. It really had nothing to do with them. Other than paying respects to Mother Xie in Yi ‘an Hall, this Fifteenth Madam Wang lived in seclusion. She could not be seen anywhere else.
In Yi An Hall, who would dare to throw a tantrum and discriminate?
Madam Wang thought to herself, ‘This is still my relative. I can’t bully mv niece.’ ’ ’
Although she was the daughter of a concubine of the Wang family, she was different from the 12th Madam who married into the second branch. Madam Wang did not recognize her as a relative. In fact, she did not have such surging feelings. After all, there were many members of the Wang family in Langya The number of concubines in the Wang family added up was not much different. It was unrealistic for each of them to be so good.
Wang Qiang had been close to Xie Wan since she was young, but she had a clear boundary with the few young ladies of the third branch, clearly standing in the captain’s room.
Madam Wang wasn’t so petty as to put in so much effort to push a helpless httle lady. To be honest, they didn’t interact much. If they didn’t meet in Yi An Hall, they would have forgotten that the Xie family had such a good person.
“Mother, why are you looking at us? We’re all old noobs, do we have to be with a Little miss can’t pass?” Madam Wang felt wronged. She could slap whoever she wanted. Don’t use her sisters-in-law to build a raft. She wasn’t that despicable.
A little widow living under someone else’s roof, what kind of conflict of interest did she have with her? Did she have to disregard her face to target her?
He thought too highly of her. He really wasn’t that petty. Moreover, he was spending her money.
Furthermore, Wang Qiang said that she was living under someone else’s roof, but all her food and clothing were provided for. Even the monthly salary for the servants was paid by the other party. Although she had no one to rely on whether it was her biological mother or her dead mother-in-law, they had done her justice and left her a lot of silver.
It was just that they had a big tree to lean on and they could enjoy the shade. It was safe to live in the Xie family, and no one dared to bully them. Other than that, the Xie family really did not have anything to do with them.
Wang Qiong was arrogant and would still do such a thing.
“Yeah, Fifteen, what’s going on? Grand Madam has always treated you like her own granddaughter. If you have anything to say, you can tell Grand Madam and ask her to make the decision. “Madam Cai was just short of saying that she mustn’t use riddles to draw dirty water onto them.
Since the two old ladies had spoken, how could Wang Qiong still dare to insist?
Her small head shook like a wave drum,
“Grandmother didn’t do anything, it was me, whether it was aunt or elder sister-in-law, or the young ladies who were my age, they never treated Ah Qiang badly, nor did they give me any face.”
“Since that’s the case, stay here in peace. As long as I’m alive, no one in the Xie family will dare to neglect you. If I’m dead, there’s still Baoxin. You’re good friends. You should know her temper. With her protecting you, I can rest assured even if I die.”
“Grandmother, what are you talking about? Grandmother, the pine crane is eternal. “Wang Qiong was terrified and hurriedly bowed.
She felt really guilty. She shouldn’t have let Mother Xie worry. She even said such words with tears in her eyes.
Mother Xie nodded.” That’s right. I’ll definitely live to a hundred years old I’ll live with all my might.” You guys have to work hard. Don’t run in front of this old woman one by one and even let this old woman send you off.”
In the end, he said it to Madam Wang and Madam Cai. He really didn’t want the white head to send the black head.
It was too hurtful.
At this moment, she heard Zhuge Shu’s arrival. Mother Xie hurriedly called for someone to help Wang Qiang up. “Don’t mention this again! Otherwise, don’t call me grandmother anymore!”
The matter was over,
“You’re not allowed to say such things in the future!” Xie Wan reprimanded in a low vo!ce. She knew that Wang Qiong was thoughtful and had her own pride She was not willing to live under someone else’s roof. However, reality did not allow it. The Wang family had fallen, and the Chu family’s eldest branch had become enemies with Wang Qiang. They could not go back…
Fortunately, she still had someone to protect her in the Xie family. If she really moved out and was bullied by others, it would be useless for the Xie family to step in.
He didn’t know that she had such an idea. He really didn’t reveal a single word to her. 0
