Chapter 89

Xie Yujiao originally scolded Liu Fugen with anger, but now that she analyzed it carefully, she suddenly felt that anger seemed to have subsided a lot.She who traveled from modern times didn't understand how to fight a war when there are only cold weapons?Isn't it just a live hand-to-hand fight?Take innocent lives to forge the so-called pornographic hegemony.

When Xie Yujiao thought of this, she sighed a little more in her heart, Zhou Tianhao was gone, maybe he was right, he would never come back.

Seeing the calm expression on Xie Yujiao's face, Liu Fugen breathed a sigh of relief, and only returned a few things that needed Xie Yujiao's decision at home, and left in a hurry.

The matter of conscription has come to an end, and the Xie family is rarely idle.After Xu Yuxing went out that day, he didn't come home for two or three days. Xu was worried, and wanted to discuss countermeasures with Xie Yujiao, but seeing that Xie Yujiao was also a little distracted these days, she didn't speak.

This day coincided with Xu Yuxing’s return from the busy world, so Xu wanted to take the opportunity to ask about this matter. Before he could open his mouth, Xu Yuxing said first: “I heard that there was another defeat in the north, and the imperial court is recruiting troops again.” Yes, this time it was directly compelled, but if there are three males in the family, one of them must be sent to the front line, fortunately our Xie family house did not delay this time, otherwise there will be troubles."

After hearing this, Xie Yujiao was secretly depressed. She had never learned anything about the history of the dynasties she traveled through, so naturally she didn't know whether she could win this battle. From the moment they can eat and sleep, they can ride horses. Everyone on horseback is an elite, unlike the people of Dayong, but they only know how to farm with a hoe.

After hearing this, Mrs. Xu frowned and said, "I don't know where this tartar came from. We have been fighting with Dayong since we were young. Why is it like being beaten uncleanly? Could it be that they have three heads and six arms? ?”

When Xu Yu was fleeing before, he almost ran into the pursuers of the Tartars. Those people were ruthless and merciless, and they were able to kill the unarmed Dayong people, making the people on the border frightened.Xu Yuxing didn't want to mention those experiences anymore, but just listened to it, and felt a little scared.

"Recently, many big families have been relocated from the north one after another. I heard that several families in the capital have been looking for houses in Jinling for a while." Xu Yuxing said, only looking up at Xie Yujiao.A while ago, he wanted to sell the two houses, and the price was considered moderate, but Xie Yujiao felt that the situation of the battle was unknown, and he could wait for a while, and maybe he could sell it for a better price.

Seeing Xu Yuxing winking at her, Xie Yujiao immediately understood that the Xie family now owns more than a dozen houses, and if they were sold when they moved south, the white money would be snowballed. into us.But Xie Yujiao didn't know why, but she was afraid of moving south again.If there really was such a day, wouldn't that mean that those who went to fight in the north could no longer hold on and died?

Xie Yujiao sat down quietly, held the teacup, tapped the lid of the cup, and said slowly: "Uncle, if anyone wants to buy those few houses we have built, then let's sell them."

Xu Yuxing originally thought that Xie Yujiao would refuse. In his opinion, Xie Yujiao is the kind of person who dares to take risks and make a lot of money. Now that the situation in the north is so tense, it is possible to move the capital, but at this time, Xie Yujiao is willing to sell. This really made Xu Yuxing feel a little unexpected.

Xie Yujiao took a sip of tea, and said lightly: "I thought about it in private, no matter what, it would be best if the north can be defended. Since we are the people of Dayong, we naturally don't want to see people burn. The money is still not distributed."

Xu Yuxing knew from a long time ago that Xie Yujiao was a person of great wisdom, and in the business field, he was very clear about it. Now that she said such a thing herself, Xu Yuxing really admired it.Xindao is worthy of being the girl taught by Mr. Xie, who knows the general and affairs well, and also has a patriotic sentiment.

"Since you think so, then I will sell those houses one after another in the past few months. As for the shops, they are all good, so I just keep them for rent collection, and I can count as a stable business." Xu Yuxing was in a mood for a while. Great, I even drank two bowls of tea.Seeing Xu Huiru on the side, he just smiled and said, "Can't father drink tea more slowly? Is aunt still reluctant to make good tea for you?"

When Mrs. Xu heard this, she just smiled and said, "This tea is newly delivered from the tea garden this year. It's not considered good tea, but it's fresher and refreshing to drink."

Mrs. Xu wanted to ask Xu Yuxing about that matter, but she didn't know how to open it. She had been unable to do anything with this younger brother. Last time when Aunt Liu's affairs became like that, Mrs. Xu always felt somewhat apologetic towards Yuxing.

Xie Yujiao lowered her eyebrows, looked up and saw Xu's anxious face, and said, "Mom, my aunt and grandma's 60th birthday next month, have you thought about how to spend it?"

When Mrs. Xu heard about it, she hurriedly said: "I haven't thought about it yet. Although it can't be a big deal, I still have to set up a table of wine. It's a little interesting. I'll discuss it with your aunt in two days."

When Xu Yuxing heard that they mentioned his aunt, his face became more serious, and he only said to Xu Huiru, "Huiru, you go back to your room first, I have something to discuss with your aunt."

Xu Huiru just stood up in a daze, glanced at Xie Yujiao, and said, "Cousin won't leave, and I won't leave either. What's the matter with Daddy, can't my daughter know?"

When Xu Yuxing was asked such a question by Xu Huiru, his face suddenly became a little more embarrassed.Xie Yujiao saw some signs, and said with a smile, "In that case, then cousin, let me go with you."

In fact, Xu Huiru knew that Xu Yuxing asked her to go away, and it was probably because of that matter. Although she wanted to hear it very much, but Xu Yuxing refused to let her listen, she had no choice.If Xie Yujiao also left with him, there would be no one to talk to him at that moment, which would make him even more depressed.

Xu Huiru stood up, with a bit of playfulness on her face, pouted and said: "Okay, okay, my daughter is leaving first, you have something to discuss slowly."

Seeing Xu Huiru leave, Xu Yuxing felt a little more at ease. Seeing Xu Yuxing like that, Xu Yuxing said with a smile, "You are still the same, you are so old, why should you be ashamed?"

Xu Yuxing was a scholar when he was young, and he was quiet and shy at first, but his calmness and sophistication later on were honed little by little after going through hardships. After all, he was still a little shy when he encountered these emotional things.

"Hui Ru said something to me that day, and I have thought about it for a long time in the past few days. Now that Hui Ru is grown up, I feel at ease when she lives here, and some things just go by chance."

Xie Yujiao looked at Xu Yuxing's faltering words, and wanted to laugh in her heart, but the other party was her uncle after all, so if she really laughed, it would be a bit disrespectful.

"If you have anything to say, uncle, just say it, how can you follow the fate?"

Seeing Xie Yujiao's straightforward question, Mrs. Xu just stretched out her hand and pretended to hit her: "You girl, you are still joking with your uncle. Let's talk about serious things. If you don't want to listen, just like your cousin. Go back to the embroidery building!"

Xie Yujiao couldn't help laughing at this moment, so she just said, "Why is mother so anxious? Uncle said it himself, so we naturally have to ask clearly. We will get the wrong meaning about this thing. Isn't it delaying people?"

Mrs. Xu just shook her head, Xu Yuxing wasn't too shy at the moment, he was in his thirties after all, since he had made up his mind, he should have taken some responsibility.

"If my sister is free, please help me to invite a matchmaker. I... I am willing to propose marriage to the eldest sister of the Xie family."

Although the servants of the Xie family still refer to them as aunt and grandma, in fact, she came back from Heli, so she should be regarded as the daughter of the Xie family, not aunt, so Xu Yuxing used the name Xie family's eldest sister.

Seeing what Xie Yujiao said, Mrs. Xu finally settled down, wishing she could stand up immediately and thank God.Seeing Xie Yujiao, she covered her handkerchief and laughed. It has been a year and a half since she traveled to Xie's house, and now she finally had another happy event.

Mrs. Xu kept saying yes, and hurriedly took the perpetual calendar to see the good day.Xu Yuxing sat on the side holding the teacup, thought for a while and said: "If this matter is settled, I plan to take them to live in the city."

Mrs. Xu was touching the pages of the perpetual calendar with her fingers. Hearing what Xu Yuxing said suddenly, she felt a bit of reluctance on her face. She didn't know how to keep her, but she heard Xie Yujiao say: "Uncle, just do what you want, and live in the city." It’s also pretty good, now that the business is in the city, you’re tired from running around, since you have a new aunt, you should live together.”

Although Xie Yujiao knew that the Xu family was reluctant to part with them, Xie Yujiao knew that the ancient rumors were no joke, and the Jiang family was not very kind to old things. My aunt's temperament, it's no wonder if she doesn't get pissed off!Once you go to the city, you will live in peace. Once the house is closed, no gossip can come in. At that time, if you buy a few new maids and wives, then the eldest aunt will be a serious wife.

Hearing Xie Yujiao's words, Mrs. Xu had no choice but to accept her reluctance for a while. She managed to settle this marriage with great difficulty, and everything should follow Xu Yuxing's temperament.

In the evening, Mrs. Xu ordered the servant girl to invite the old aunt and grandma over, planning to go directly to the matchmaker after two breaths.

The old aunt didn't have much hope for this matter at first, although she was thinking about it in her heart, she didn't dare to say it.My aunt is a second-married woman. Although Xu Yuxing is also a widower, he is a son of a family, and his status is much higher than that of my aunt.Therefore, the old aunt only called the eldest aunt a few times in private, and seeing that she was still not enlightened, she was secretly worried.Seeing that Mrs. Xu suddenly invited her over, the old aunt was curious for a moment.
