The short-lived ghost of the Xie family has lived a long life

Chapter 545
Xie Erli was shocked.

This was the second time he heard Zhu Weixi say such things.

The first time was before the wedding, when he followed his father to Zhu's house. His father had something to discuss with Mr. Zhu, and Zhu Yuanmo walked around the house with him.

When they turned to the back garden, a bright girl stood on the porch.

The girl lifted up her skirt and walked towards him, nodding to Zhu Yuanmo, "Brother, how about you let me go for a walk with him?"

This was the first time he saw Zhu Weixi, and there was another surprise among the unexpected.

First of all, she is very good-looking and has a well-educated manner.

Secondly, she is the eldest daughter of the Zhu family.

The Zhu family's family status is not high, but the benefits are real. How many people want to ask for help but have no way.

In the end, Master Zhu's favorite person is her, and she almost always responds to every request.

Of course, his father also secretly told him that Zhu Weixi once had a sweetheart, a distant cousin from her grandmother's family, named Geng Songsheng.

Because of the fraud committed by Geng Song and Sheng Chunwei, the marriage was not consummated.

His father did not force him and let him think about it on his own, so he took this trip to the Zhu family.

The two of them walked a while, and the girl stopped.

"Thank you, Mr. Xie, I have a not-so-glorious past..."

Xie Erli was stunned on the spot.

If it were any other young lady, she would have wished that this kind of thing had been covered up for the rest of her life and no one would know about it forever.

The eldest lady of the Zhu family is good at not covering up at all.

"If you mind, you must not accept this marriage..."

"I do not mind."

The reason is simple. He only needs a well-matched and affordable wife who can bear children for him and take care of his children. Nothing else is within the scope of his consideration.

Zhu Weixi is the most suitable candidate.

Afterwards, his father was quite satisfied with his decision and praised him for his vision and knowing the right choices.

What her father didn't know was that his choice of her was not a matter of vision or choice.

Geng Songsheng and he were classmates in the Imperial College.

Geng Songsheng was a child prodigy. He learned everything quickly and remembered everything firmly. For him, it was easy to pass the exam.

However, his qualifications were mediocre. He had to study until midnight every day, and his head was so weak that it hurt his bones.

Because of this, there was no interaction between the two, and Xie Erli even disliked him.

What is ridiculous is that in the spring of that year, Geng and Song were promoted because of fraud, but he worked hard and won the Jinshi.

Accepting this marriage, in Xie Erli's heart, it was as if Geng Song Sheng had been trampled under his feet again, and there was an indescribable joy in his heart!

……

The moonlight was clear and light, and the couple walked slowly, looking at the handsome man and the beautiful woman from a distance, and they seemed to be a perfect match.

After walking a while, Zhu Weixi stopped and looked up at Xie Erli with an apologetic look on his face.

"My father's inner demons involve someone."

"Who?"

"Gengsongsheng."

Xie Erli's eyes widened, "How could he be involved?"

"I can't tell clearly, but Miss Yan said that there was something fishy about his fraud back then, and we need to investigate it carefully."

Speaking of this, Zhu Weixi's face became even more apologetic.

"So I have to go to that mansion these days, and I hope you will allow me to go there."

It happened so suddenly that Xie Erli's chest felt like a big stone was stuck, heavy and stuffy, and his voice couldn't help but sink.

"What are you going to do and you can't help me?"

Zhu Weixi knew as soon as she heard that the man was unhappy. If it had been anything else, she would have kept her mouth shut knowingly, but this matter...

“There’s always time to help.”

"Then what should we do in this mansion? Who should we leave it to?"

Xie Erli's face also darkened, "Don't forget, you are now the eldest lady of the Xie family, not the eldest lady of the Zhu family."

Zhu Weixi's face turned a little pale, and his eyes darkened little by little. "I have already reported back to the old lady, and she has agreed. I will keep Chuntao and let her take care of Manager Xie. The affairs in the house will not be delayed."

When Xie Erli heard what the old lady had already said, he couldn't hold back his anger.

"You've already made arrangements, what else do you want to say to me?"

"Of course I have to say that you and I are husband and wife."

"You still know that we are husband and wife?"

Xie Erli's eyes turned cold and he sneered: "I see that until now you have been married, only Geng Song Sheng is the only one in your heart."

"You, what did you say?" Zhu Weixi raised his head and looked at the man in front of him in disbelief.

"You understand what I say."

Xie Erli pointed his sleeve and walked away.

Zhu Weixi looked at his back in despair, and the tears that she had finally wiped away welled up again.

Since their marriage, that person has long been stuffed into a cage by her, covered with a lid, and collected dust.

She planned to keep it sealed for the rest of her life, but her father's inner demon turned the Zhu family upside down. She had no choice but to wipe away the ashes and lift the lid.

Before coming, she kept telling herself in her heart to calm down and speak well, even if she lowered her head and coaxed or begged, it was her fault after all.

He never imagined that it would be like this - her dedication and hard work over the years, in his eyes, was just that she was in the Cao camp and her heart was in the Han Dynasty.

"Grandma?"

Chuntao, who was hiding in the dark, rushed over, took out her handkerchief, and wiped away her master's tears sadly.

Zhu Weixi took the veil and said, "Why are you back?"

Chuntao: "Don't worry, grandma."

"There is nothing to worry about."

Zhu Weixi sniffed.

"You stay at the house tomorrow and make your own decisions on small matters. Discuss major matters with Manager Xie. If Manager Xie can't make the decision, you can either report back to my wife or wait until I come back."

Chuntao thought about the uncle's attitude just now and hesitated: "Do you still want to go there, grandma?"

"go with!"

Zhu Weixi endured the astringency in his eyes, "If we can't do this, I will be uneasy in this life!"

……

When Wei Lin saw his master's walking momentum from a distance, his heart lifted.

The uncle speaks and does things in a leisurely manner, so much so that he walks half a beat slower than ordinary people. Especially when he is in a good mood, he even takes a leisurely stroll.

Coming in such a hurry, it was obvious that something was wrong.

Wei Lin came up to greet him: "Master?"

"I will rest in the study today."

Xie Erli dropped this sentence and walked to the study, leaving Wei Lin alone and a little at a loss.

Rest in the study room?
That thing is related to grandma.

in argument?
Entering the study, he thanked Erli and closed the door, his eyes instantly quenched his fire.
He and Zhu Weixi have been married for many years, and he thinks that his role as husband is not [-]% good, but only [-]% or [-]%.

Never interfere in the affairs of the inner house;
Give her enough face in front of outsiders;
There are no messy wives and concubines around.

Mr. Zhu had been ill for several months, and she would run to her parents' house from time to time. Whenever she was free, she would accompany him. Her own father had never been so filial.

Because of this reason, his mother criticized Zhu Weixi a lot. It was he who advised her to worry less and be more considerate.

The result was good, as his tolerance and tolerance were rewarded with a cuckold.

When Xie Erli thought of this, his eyebrows jumped.

Zhu Weixi, why am I not good enough to you?What failed to satisfy you and make you still yearn for that rotten person?

What do you think of Xie Erli?
Where do you put my Xie family?
"Master...Master...the hot water has been poured..."

Xie Erli opened the door. His body seemed to be covered with a layer of thousand-year-old ice. He was so frightened that the maid outside the door did not even dare to breathe loudly.

"Are there any rules for yelling?"

Xie Erli looked at the maids on the ground with a sullen expression, "One by one, did I give you shame?"

The maidservant was so frightened that she fell to her knees.
