Chapter 458: Family History
Translator: 549690339 |
Xie Wan had grown up in an aristocratic family since she was young. Her father was talented and her mother had both virtue and talent. She had always thought highly of herself. When Xie Xian was young, he had experienced a period of low tide in the Xie family, but Xie Wan had been going smoothly ever since she could remember.
Although the Xie family’s chief branch was lonely for a while after Shi Zhong Xie’s death, her personality had already formed at that time, so it did not affect her much.
He was confident and decisive in his work. He also followed Madam Yuan’s personality and had a clear distinction between love and hate. If she liked the way you looked, then everything was good. But if she didn’t like the way you looked, she felt that it was a waste to look at you.
Xiao Ning was the same.
Although the Xiao and Xie families were real relatives, and Mother Xie and Old Madam Xiao were present, Xiao Ning had arranged a marriage with the new Emperor not long after she arrived in Jiankang City. They hadn’t even gotten to know each other yet, but Xiao Ning had already held herself high and hadn’t seen him for a long time.
Regardless of the twists and turns, whether Xiao Ning did not want to have more dealings with the Xie family or was deceived, Xie Wan did not care.
A brain was a good thing. As the future queen, she hoped that she had one.
If not for Mother Xie’s instructions, Xie Wan would not have bothered to say anything.
“Then who is Guo Shangyi?”
Xie Wan walked as she walked, her face already filled with undisguised disdain.
“It’s just a Shangyi. In the future, that person will enter the palace to be the
Empress. Who asked a Shangyi to control her with just a few words?
“No matter what, she came from an aristocratic family, but she was fooled by a few words. I think she was the one who was arrogant first. She felt that she was different from others and that she was high and mighty.
“He hit it off with Guo Shangyi.”
Xiao Baoxin suddenly realized that this was why Xie Wan was angry.
” I feel so stupid after I got pregnant…”
Xie Wan looked at Xiao Baoxin with a complicated expression. She was not that smart to begin with.
Needless to say, Xiao Baoxin had already read her mind, and his face instantly turned red.
They couldn’t play together anymore.
“I can’t blame you. Since I was young, other than reading and writing, I’ve also been dealing with people.”
Xie Wan had originally taken a fancy to Xiao Baoxin because she was straightforward and open-minded. She did not beat around the bush and put all her thoughts on her face.
“When I was four years old, Mother taught me how to distinguish servants and their character. Now, I can basically tell 60 – 70% at a glance.”
Xiao Baoxin deeply felt God’s kindness towards her. If it wasn’t for her innate ability to hear the thoughts of others, would she have married into an aristocratic family and let others swallow her whole?
Father!
When she was four years old, she seemed to be interested in learning martial arts. She played with cats and dogs every day and fought with her neighbors.
This was the origin of family knowledge.
“So, you have the Fiery Eyes now.”Xiao Baoxin wanted to learn how to suck up
in the future.
Xie Wan was speechless. It’s just a little personal opinion.”
“It’s not appropriate for you to take the lead in this matter. You’re the only one she has some friendship with in the Xie family.”
Was he afraid that she would overthink?
“Grandmother has her own considerations. I won’t overthink this. Moreover, you are a proper wife of the Xie family. Wouldn’t it be more powerful for you to come forward than me?”Xiao Baoxin laughed.” If I say the same thing, I’m afraid Guo Shangyi has ten thousand words waiting for me.”
It wasn’t that her status wasn’t high enough, but that her background wasn’t high enough.
Xie Wan came from an aristocratic family. Be it rules or etiquette, she was good
at it.
Who in Daliang knew that the children of aristocratic families had eyes on the top of their heads? Even the royal family was not worthy of his attention.
No matter how rich you are, if your family doesn’t have a foundation, you’re at most a nouveau riche. Won’t you die if you talk about the rules with the aristocratic families?
Why did Xie Wan have a few complaints about Xiao Ning?
She was in it and could see it clearly.
Not to mention that her mother was gone, no one had taught her, so she could not see the situation clearly. Xie Wan expressed that she had yet to lose her father. If not for her brother, their eldest branch would have ended. Who would want to stand there and fool her into forgetting about her roots? That would be a kind of nonsense.
“She didn’t think about it. If she doesn’t rely on her own family, what right does she have to stand firm in the palace?”
Xiao Baoxin agreed.” I guess I lost my mind for a moment. It’ll be fine as long as I figure it out.””
“I doubt it.” Xie Wan snorted coldly. “When I first arrived in Jiankang, my sister and sister were so close. I’ll stay as far away from such a person as I can.”
Xiao Baoxin rubbed his stomach and felt frightened.”Seventh Madame, you are indeed very popular today.”
■’I’m just… I can’t stand fools.” Xie Wan said lightly and said goodbye to Xiao Baoxin. Xiao Baoxin invited her to Rong An Hall, but she didn’t answer. She said that she wanted to go back and catch up on sleep.
She didn’t sleep well last night. If she didn’t care about her appearance, she would have yawned non-stop.
Xiao Baoxin then returned with the two maids. As for Xie Shan, the third household, she never showed up.
It wasn’t until the afternoon when Xiao Baoxin woke up from a nap and heard Cai Wei’s excited talk that he found out that someone from the Third household had come to propose marriage, but was chased out by Madam Wang. -What kind of person is he?” Xiao Baoxin asked curiously while holding a small bowl of meat porridge.
Cai Wei smiled mysteriously,”Furen definitely won’t be able to guess.”” She took advantage of the time when Xiao Baoxin was sleeping and chatted with the famous maid in the third room to find out.
“So it was yesterday. Madam Wang took Second Lady to pay respects to Eldest Princess, and on the way back, the car broke down. When changing cars, she accidentally got the wrong car and met a man in his twenties. He was dressed like a military general.”
“In the end, they came to propose marriage today.”
Xiao Baoxin didn’t even need to listen anymore. He was definitely from a poor family. Otherwise, no matter how incompatible his family background was, he wouldn’t have been chased out by others.
Madam Wang cared a lot about her family background. She relied on her status as an aristocratic family and did not even put the Xiao family in her eyes. If it wasn’t for the fact that the Wang family had fallen and that there was no one to support her maiden family, Xiao Baoxin definitely wouldn’t have had the peaceful days he had now.
Those people were looking down on her and her family background.
As expected, he heard Cai Wei say,””I heard that it was a general from a poor family who made Second Lady cry with anger. Madam Wang was also so angry that she kept cursing. She didn’t mention anything else, but when she mentioned the person she saw yesterday, Madam Wang exploded. She heard… He was so ugly that you could see him from the entire street.”
“Even the ugliest servant of the Xie family looks more dignified than that person.”
“This…” During the day, Xiao Baoxin was looking at herself in the mirror, and at night, she was looking at Xie Xian, who was as handsome as a banished immortal. She really had no right to tell people not to look at faces.
Originally, no matter how down and out an aristocratic family was, they wouldn’t go so far as to let you directly come over to propose marriage after seeing them on the streets, right?
He had only hired a matchmaker, and there was no proper guarantor.
No wonder Madam Wang was so angry that Xie Shan was about to cry. This was too unusual..
