Is my wife farming today?

Chapter 44 Unintentional entry into officialdom
  When the sky turned dark, Dugu Jin finally came back.

The first thing he did when he got off the carriage was to ask someone if he had left.

"No, Second Miss Xie has been waiting in the mansion for a whole day. By the way, the Lord and Young Master are also back."

Dugujin nodded, "It's already this hour, it's time to come back."

The steward pursed his lips and smiled, "No, my lord, the young master will be back before noon."

"Huh?" Dugu Jin stopped, with an intriguing smile on his face, "So, he came back specifically for the Xie family?"

The butler said, "Yes."

People are happy when they are happy.

Dugujin lifted up his hem and strode across the threshold with a happy smile on his face, but that smile quickly disappeared after a short while.

Because I saw the rejection.

He refused to hear the voices outside and went out specially to greet him.

But when he saw the smile on Taifu's face suddenly disappear, he couldn't help but feel anxious.

"Aunt Jin."

"Go in and talk." Dugu Jin's eyes fell on Dugu Xiwei, who looked as usual, "I will serve tea."

Dugu Xiwei went down to make tea.

After declining and waiting for a day, I could no longer hold myself back and asked quickly: "Aunt Jin, your Majesty is keeping you, but for my eldest sister's sake?"

"Yes and no." Dugu Jin let his servants take off his court clothes and changed into a dark blue gown, and then said slowly: "Your Majesty said that his hands were itchy for a while, so he left me and Sinong Qing to talk for a while in the palace. Bureau, I didn’t pay attention to the time for a moment.”

Xie didn't quite believe it. He frowned and asked, "Why do you have itchy hands today?"

Seeing that he couldn't deceive her, Dugu Jin changed his tone.

"You should have heard that your eldest sister was ambushed on the way to transport rations. Your Majesty left us two here just to make inquiries and find out the lost rations."

"That's the last food I can get in the capital." Dugu Jin sighed.

Xie Jue thought about it and couldn't help but ask, "If we can't find the lost military rations, my eldest sister..."

"Remove from office, jail and sentenced."

Decline was stunned for a moment, so serious? No wonder Mr. Xie, who could collapse Mount Tai without changing his expression, was so angry that he was so angry. This was really bad.

Dugu Jin continued: "The reason why I asked my servants to keep you in the house today is because I am afraid that if you care about me, you will cause chaos and cause trouble again. You don't have to think of any solutions. This is Xie Hong's dereliction of duty. She is a lucky person." Lieutenant Liang must be responsible for the 100,000 soldiers guarding the front line in Jincheng."

"And what you have to do is take good care of your mother, shoulder the responsibility of being the head of the family, and don't make any more mistakes."

Is this... a bit too cold-blooded?

She had been waiting here all day, not just to hear the words "Don't mind your own business."

Xie Xie looked at the person in front of her in disbelief. Is this person really Aunt Jin, who used to be full of smiles and always protect her? Or perhaps, this is the true appearance of the former Imperial Master behind his mask.

She even forgot how she walked out of Tai Fu's house.

She wanted to save Xie Hong, but it was 200,000 shi of food, not 20 shi...

……

Dugu Xiwei, who had just left without saying a word, was finally able to ask her doubts. "Why should mother scare her? Since Your Majesty already knows the truth, he will not punish the Xie family severely."

Dugu Jin lowered his head and brushed off the foam in the tea cup, took a sip, and a bitter taste appeared on the tip of his tongue, "Yes, but have you ever thought about who in the DPRK would take such a big risk and would rather get infected himself?" Are you going to trap the Xie family in the mud even though you are so sexy?"

Dugu Xi's eyes flickered slightly, and the answer was ready to come out, but he held it back again and again.

Knowing a son like a mother, how could Dugu Jin not know what he was thinking?
  "It's good to be frank and casual, but Luo Yi always wants to be the only girl in the capital." At this point, Dugu Jin said with a decisive voice, "Otherwise, how can she be worthy of being your wife?"

"Mother." Hearing this, Dugu Xi murmured slightly: "Why did you choose her?"

Dugu Jin smiled and said, "Because, I believe in my own vision."

When going to court today, Dugu Jin also heard the usually taciturn Sinong Qing decline.

It is said that she became famous at the lotus banquet held by the prince and composed an excellent poem.

Suddenly remembering it, Dugu Jin asked Dugu Xiwei, "I heard that Luo Yi wrote a poem, which is now very popular among literati. Do you know about this?"

"Yes, as soon as this poem was published, it surpassed many other poems and became the leader of the Yuedan Review, but..."

"Just what?"

"Haier even mentioned this to Xie Xie today. She seems not to be interested in becoming an official."

Dugu Jin laughed, "Not interested? How is that possible? Which girl of her age is not gearing up, trying every possible means to get into the court, hoping to show off her talents?"

Dugu Xiwei made no excuses. The expression on Guan Guan's refusal today did not seem like he was pretending to lie to himself, but rather sincere and sincere.

"In your opinion, what do you think of her poems?"

He lowered his eyes and said, "I'm afraid that no one in the entire Shangjing City can surpass me."

Dugu Jin stopped what he was doing and said, "Seriously?"

She has always heard about the reputation of being a dissipator over the years, and if she hears it too much, she will inevitably be fooled by the rumors.

Dugu Xiwei presented the verses he secretly copied.

"The luminous cup of grape wine, I want to drink the pipa immediately. Don't laugh while lying drunk on the battlefield. How many people have fought in ancient times? Well, it is indeed a good poem! The last two lines are particularly exquisite! I didn't expect that the refusal could have such courage and magnanimity! He could do such a thing A majestic, unrestrained and joyful poem!" Dugu Jin seemed still unwilling to give up after reading it, "Does she have any other poems?"

"Hai'er has only copied this song for the time being. After the lotus banquet that day, I had a conversation with Furong Niang of the doctor's family. I heard from her that when she was drunk, she especially liked to sing to herself. I once recited a few lines, which seemed to be 'One grain of millet is planted in spring, and ten thousand grains are harvested in autumn. There is no idle land in the world, and farmers still starve to death.', the child does not know whether it is the whole picture, but only remembers these."

After listening to this, Dugu Jin excitedly slapped the table and stood up, "Next time, I will definitely invite her to drink three hundred cups!"

She refused and returned to her house with a sad expression, like an eggplant beaten by frost, and locked herself in the room. She had no idea that mother and son were having a lively discussion in Taifu's house because of the poem she had written.

Xie Shen didn't wake up until midnight.

When he refused to come see her, he found that his eyes were bloodshot and his eyes were bruised. He thought she was frightened.

"What are you afraid of?" Xie Shen scolded in a hoarse voice, "Even if your eldest sister died on the way to transporting military rations, it was her own fault. As a girl of my Xie family, I must never show cowardice no matter when or where I am! do you understand?"

Xie Rui was deeply touched and couldn't help but yawn.

She naturally knew that worrying was useless, so she spent the past half day busy planning the next thing.

Man, only when you are strong can you enjoy freedom forever.
