The Abandoned Daughter

Chapter 84 Xie Shengli’s Questions

Seeing her like this, Qiao sighed helplessly, and ordered the maid to serve.

After dinner, Xie Ruzhuo quarreled with Qiao and Xie Ruyue. Just as he was about to return to the room, he saw Uncle Hai approaching and smiled at Xie Ruzhuo, "Miss Si, the old man called you to the study."

Xie Ruzhuo nodded and said, "Thanks to Uncle Hai, I'll be over."

The night in winter is always dark and early, and the sky is getting dark, and it is completely dark at this time. There was snow on both sides of the gravel path in the yard, and the deerskin boots stepped on and made a squeaking sound, as if to tell people the coming of winter.

Xie Ruzhuo exhaled and pushed open the door of Ning Xitang's study.

On the table in the room, a lamp was lit with a slightly dim light, but the light inside the room was particularly soft. Xie Shengli clung to a wolf with splashed ink and swiped his pen. Seeing Xie Ruzhuo coming in, he stopped writing, showing a smile, and said, "Zuo'er, look at what I wrote."

Xie Ruzhuo walked over and took a closer look before he said, "The grandfather's font is quite vigorous, and the granddaughter is ashamed of it."

"Haha, you girl, you will come and coax me." Xie Shengli laughed, handed the pen to Xie Ruzhuo, and said, "Listen to your father, your calligraphy has improved a lot these days, come, write a few words Show it to grandfather."

Xie Ruzhuo did not decline, took the pen, thought a little, and wrote a few words on the paper.

"Make a decision and then move."

Xie Shengli slowly said these words, and then slightly confused, "Why did Zhuo'er remember to write these words?" Although this girl's words were beautiful, there was a faint male style in them, and these words Meaning, it is not suitable for her as a daughter's home.

As she read, Xie Shengli couldn't help frowning slightly.

Xie Ruzhuo raised a smile and said, "Isn't my grandfather's recent style exactly in line with these words?"

Hearing that, Xie Shengli was a little bit amused, and said, "You girl, you are very alert." After that, he remembered something, and asked sternly, "Why are you doing that at the banquet today?" This granddaughter Recently, he always surprised him and gave him many surprises.

It was only today's matter that made him have to re-examine this granddaughter again.

Xie Ruzhuo originally didn't intend to hide Xie Shengli's secrets. At this time, when he heard him ask, he also solemnly said, "The flood in the south is the second uncle's responsibility. Today, although our Xie family didn't make any suggestions, it was the first one. I am the daughter of the Xie family. What I do and do naturally represents the Xie family. A good thing that can be done, won the emperor’s favor, may also allow him to be more tolerant to the Xie family when it comes to dealing with the second uncle in the future. One point."

Hearing this, Xie Shengli couldn't help but nodded and sighed, "It's worthy of being the daughter of my Xie family. It's just that you are a girl who can put herself in the Xie family in everything." What Master Huicheng said that day made Xie Shengli a little worried. . Although the Xie family turned the crisis into peace, the future of this grandson, who had the life of Fengxing, was uncertain, which finally made him feel uneasy.

Seeing her acting sharply and calmly now, Xie Shengli was also relieved a lot.

Upon seeing this, Xie Ruzhuo took the opportunity to bring up another matter, "Grandfather, I heard that a few days ago, the old Xie family sent someone to ask for help, but was turned away by the concierge. I wonder if this happened?"

When he mentioned the old Xie family, Xie Shengli's expression became a little gloomy, but he was thinking that this granddaughter had just gained merit and did not know his grievances with the old clan, so he just waved his hand and said, "The flood in the south of the Yangtze River, In fact, these big families can't be hurt. They just come here for nothing else. If the concierge refuses, he will refuse."

"Grandfather, I wonder if you can listen to me?"

Seeing that he didn't want to mention this, Xie Ruzhuo asked with a serious look.

When she said this, Xie Shengli naturally couldn't refuse, and he had a faint thought in his heart. Every time this granddaughter mentioned the opinions, they all had their own unique opinions. Therefore, he simply sat on the Grand Master's chair and asked Xie Ruzhuo to sit next to him. Then he said, "Let's talk."

Xie Ruzhuo organized the language in his heart before he said, "Since our line separated from the big clan in the early years, we have no contact with other people of the same clan. Over the years, my granddaughter has heard that besides us, thank you. There are not many people of the same clan who are officials in the dynasty. Although the days will not be difficult, but it is still a small and rich family. If it was safe before, but now, the floods in the south have many places. Who There is no guarantee that the Xie family will not be affected in the slightest. Now the Xie family has come to ask for help, and the granddaughter thinks that if they weren't really in danger, they would not have come.

As she said, she took another deep breath and said, "I wonder if grandfather still remembers the plague in Donglai country a hundred years ago?"

As soon as she said this, Xie Shengli's face instantly changed color. He naturally knew the plague, it was the disaster caused by the flood! At this moment after Xie Ruzhuo mentioned this, Xie Shengli only felt that his back was wet, and he asked tentatively, "What do you mean?"

Xie Ruzhuo shook his head and continued, "Naturally we cannot predict the natural disasters. It is just the disaster of others, but we should take it as a lesson. If there will be a plague after this flood, then the Xie family who is at the center of the disaster will happen. , How should we protect ourselves? It is to take a step back and say, even if there is no plague, the Xie family belongs to the same line as us after all, people of the same clan and the same clan, how can there be no reason to die? It is better to take advantage of our own clan. When people bow their heads, they will be moved to the capital, so that if there is an accident, they can also escape."

After hearing her words, Xie Shengli couldn't help but sighed and said, "You are young and don't understand many things. What happened in the past is the shame of my life. If it were not for the extreme hatred, I would not break away from the genealogy and leave the Xie family. Family. It’s just that you have some truth in what you said."

Seeing that Xie Shengli was a little loose, Xie Ruzhuo felt a little bit more calm. What she was afraid of was that Xie Shengli would not be moved at all. Then when something really happened, there was really no room for recovery!

"In the past, the people who said that they can go with the wind are often not the people involved. The granddaughter knows that the grandfather must have a hard time passing this hurdle, but the granddaughter has one thing to say."

"Oh? Tell me." Xie Shengli looked at the little girl in front of him with admiration. Hearing what she said, he immediately put down the tea cup and motioned her to continue.

"Let’s thank the family, if it is judged by outsiders, it would be regarded as a century-old famous family. But the granddaughter is in the center, but she knows that the grandfather is struggling. Not to mention, within the three rooms, the males are thin, although the father is in a high position, But it didn't make a lot of achievements. The third uncle was in business, but it was his duty. But, that's the case. When something happened to the second uncle, Xie's family was a little wobbly. In the final analysis, it was the reason why Xie family was not prosperous. If all members of the Xie family’s clan can be moved to the capital, the strength of the Xie family will surely rise to a higher level. Only the prosperity of the family can protect my Xie family, which will last forever."

Xie Ruzhuo slowly said, and his face became more and more wise because of solemnity.

After listening to Xie Ruzhuo's words, Xie Shengli couldn't help being a little shocked. He never expected that Xie Ruzhuo could think of things so long at a young age. Over the years, he has occasionally regretted it. If the Xie family supported it, then the Xie family wouldn't be like this step by step in the capital.

It's just that he can't save the face by doing this, so is he reconciling with the Xie family?

"No matter, this matter can't be rushed for a while, let me think about it." Xie Shengli thought for a long time before giving such an answer.

Xie Ruzhuo knew that Xie Shengli had already moved, so he didn't say anything. The ancestors and grandchildren said something else, Xie Shengli was exhausted, and Xie Ruzhuo went back to rest.

Until returning to the room, Xie Ruzhuo's hands were clenched tightly. It is too exciting to be able to correct the mistakes of the previous life one by one, and to stop those wrong and regrettable things from happening again. This feeling is too exciting and too exciting.

The so-called few people are happy and others are worried. This Xie Ruzhuo couldn't sleep at night with excitement, but Shen Jingci was scolded bloody.

"This is the answer you gave me? How much did we invest for the Golden Banquet, but in the end, it was because of your carelessness that our success fell short!" Family Master Shen slammed the crutches in his hand to the ground with a look of hatred. Gangly looked at Shen Jingci standing in front of her.

Although Patriarch Shen didn't go to today's banquet, Shen Jingci's Baoqin was someone he cultivated, and everything Shen Jingci's words and deeds would be truthfully reported back. When it was learned that today because the farmer had not been kept hidden, the emperor did not give the right to run a charity to the Shen family, the Shen family's anger suddenly rose to its apex.

Patriarch Shen was angry, and Shen Jingci didn't get much better. She has lived for two lifetimes and has never been so useless! Cooked ducks can fly. How can she let this matter go? !

"Grandpa, don't worry, I will find out about this matter. If you want to open a charity organization, you must ask my Shen family to do it!" When she spoke, she didn't stop her brows. The Shen family master's face improved a bit before Shen Jingci continued, "It's just that today's things are too weird, I suspect that someone is trying to kill the Shen family!"

Family Master Shen squinted his eyes, but still couldn't conceal the light in the meantime. He slowly sat down and said, "You said this, are you trying to shirk responsibility?"

Hearing this, Shen Jingci immediately knelt down and said, "Grandpa, I will never fool you to shirk responsibility! Give me three days and I will give you a satisfactory answer! Don't worry, I All of these things have only one purpose, and that is, to gain the greatest benefit for the Shen family!"

After hearing this, Patriarch Shen's expression slowly cooled down. He took a sip of tea and said, "I'll give you three days. What to do is up to you."

When the teacup was placed on the table, there was a crisp sound, Shen Jing's heart trembled, she lowered her eyebrows and responded, "Yes."

Patriarch Shen then slowly looked and said, "Tzu'er, you have been different from others since childhood, and grandpa also believes in your strength. However, you must not be careless, remember that the arrogant soldier will be defeated!"

"Listen to Grandpa's teachings." Shen Jingci responded to the words of the Shen Patriarch. Seeing that he was reluctant to speak again, she said, "Grandpa, granddaughter is leaving first."

Hearing this, Family Master Shen waved his hand and said, "Go."

It wasn't until she left the door that Shen Jingci let out a long sigh. She almost walked back to her room and closed the door severely.

The girl guarding the door heard the crackling noise from time to time inside, and she had already ignored it. When the inside stopped, Shi Mo walked into the room, cleaned up all the debris on the ground, and then quietly retreated.
