Planning to marry the third master

Chapter 495: Account Payable

The next day, a group of people dressed in mourning clothes and plain clothes left Longnan, with the Xie family flag hoisted. Outsiders could tell at a glance that someone from the Xie family had died. With such a big ceremony, it must be an important person from the Xie family.

After the coffin left Longnan, the news of the past few days became a hot topic. After all, Longnan was in chaos during that period, the people were living in misery, and the government was unable to cope with it, so more people paid attention to it.

Among all the rumors, the only person who died was clear, and that was Mr. Xie Sanye’s wife.

Feng Zhuoming and Xie Xinnian carried the coffin towards Jinling. Since Jinling was their ancestral home, it was natural for them to return to their roots.

After finishing the work, Xie Yunxiao was in the meeting room of the Chen family, facing Chen Haonan and Chen Jiangting again.

Chen Haonan sat in the same old position, with Chen Jiangting and Xie Yunxiao sitting opposite him. Today was also a one-on-two situation, so they naturally had to talk about marriage. However, Xie Yunxiao was not a person who beat around the bush, so he said directly: "Tomorrow, I will leave Longnan. You and I know what I said before. Anything that doesn't exist is just empty talk. Let me change the conditions. I will protect the Chen family's business in Bianjing."

The tone of his words was so arrogant that it was shocking. Xie Yunxiao actually said this under the emperor's feet. However, they knew the style of Mr. Xie Sanye, and he was a man of his word. The Chen family did not get involved in officialdom, and it was not an exaggeration to say that their business was far away from Bianjing. If someone protected the Chen family, that would be another matter.

However, compared with the two families' marriage relationship and the business in Bianjing, the marriage relationship is obviously better. The interests are intricately linked and cannot be explained in a few words. The bad thing is that neither family has a ready-made girl, and the timing is not right.

Chen Haonan took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "You and I are still young, and we still have a long time to live. My Chen family can wait."

Xie Yunxiao said calmly, "Good things take time. No one can predict what will happen in the future. Besides, with Xin Hui here, the Chen and Xie families already have this relationship, and the seniority will be messed up. There is only one chance, and I will not come to Longnan later. It is better for the head of the Chen family to decide now."

Chen Haonan glanced at Chen Jiangting, who thought it was feasible and nodded.

Chen Haonan said: "That's fine, when will the Third Master go to Bianjing?"

Xie Yunxiao estimated the time and knew that he would have to go to Bianjing sooner or later. He said, "After I finish my work at the court, it will be half a year later."

Chen Haonan nodded and said, "How do we find the Third Master?"

Xie Yunxiao said: "General's Mansion."

"Okay, then my fourth uncle and I will go to Bianjing again."

Xie Yunxiao nodded, stood up and said, "I have something else to do."

The two nodded and watched Xie Yunxiao leave.

After the people left, Chen Haonan looked at Chen Jiangting and said, "I have to admit that Mr. Xie is capable and competent."

Chen Jiangting took a sip of tea and nodded, "Indeed, it's rare to find someone who is worthy of admiration."

At this time, Xie Xinhui went to talk to Feng Zhuohua. Feng Zhuohua saw that Xie Xinhui's behavior was exactly the same as Luo Mingshuang's. Thinking that she had ruined Luo Linxi's life, although it was not her turn to manage, there were some things that she had to remind Xie Xinhui. She couldn't help but said, "I was twelve years old at that time. Before that, you, me and Linxi slept in the same bed. Do you know why I suddenly stopped playing with you?"

Xie Xinhui was puzzled. There was indeed a period of time when the three of them were very close and played together almost every day. After that, Feng Zhuohua started reading books every day. She asked, "Isn't my cousin often sick and weak? What's the matter? Is there another reason?"

Feng Zhuohua stood up, looked at the flowers in the small courtyard, picked a flower bud and said, "I accidentally heard the conversation between my aunt and Aunt Xue. Do you know what I heard?"

Xie Xinhui was puzzled and asked, "What?"

Feng Zhuohua showed the flower bud to Xie Xinhui and said, "This is how to destroy a person, so that he or she will never blossom and bear fruit."

Upon hearing this, Xie Xinhui's face turned pale. She had never done anything bad in her life. The only thing was that she listened to her mother and did something that let Luo Linxi down.

Feng Zhuohua said: "I don't want to interfere in your affairs today, but Lin Xihao grew up with us, how can you make it up to her.

She followed you to Longnan alone, so that you would not be alone here. Since you made a mistake, try to make amends." He couldn't help but mind his own business.

Xie Xinhui was flustered and nervous, her eyes turned red, and she said, "I, I want to confess to her, but I'm afraid she will hate me. I want to adopt a child for her, but I don't know how to tell her. I, I regret it every day, I, I feel guilty towards her, and I think about making it up to her every day, but I really don't know how to start." After she finished speaking, she began to cry, and the more she cried, the sadder she became.

Feng Zhuohua was angry, but what could she do? She said, "I won't tell her. No woman can bear such hurt. Since the matter is irreversible, you should treat her well."

Xie Xinhui nodded and said, "Yes, don't worry, I will always take care of her and not let her suffer or get tired. I will let her live a peaceful and stable life here."

"Okay, I believe you. Let's forget about this matter now, and I won't mention it again."

Xie Xinhui didn't expect that someone would know about such a secret matter. As the saying goes, there is no wall that is impenetrable. At this moment, she could only nod in agreement.

It was like a knife hanging over her head, making it hard for her to sleep or eat. She didn't know whether what her mother taught her was right or wrong.
