Chapter 785: Chapter 785-See Through the Vest
Just in terms of brains, Xie Xian was a hundred times better than her. She admitted this.
Moreover, speaking of which, back then when she had arranged for Xie Yan to marry into the Zu family, didn’t she also not have the Prophet to meet Xie Xian, and he didn’t even say a single word of no? There was no reason for Xie Xian, as a father, to arrange a marriage for his son. It was as if her heart and lungs had been stabbed.
The only thing that made her scratch her head was…
Chu Lingzi was Xie Yan’s mother-in-law in his previous life. With such a change, it was his brother’s turn. He didn’t want to cause a quarrel between the brothers, which would be disrespectful.
“Why don’t we pair Ah Yan and Jiao Niang?”Xiao Baoxin really didn’t know what to do in his heart. He had also never heard Xie Yan talk about whether his relationship with his wife in his previous life was good or not.
He didn’t sound confident, but what he heard entered his heart.
“Why?”
Xiao Baoxin laughed dryly, unable to make it up.
“Although Ah Yan has decided to have Zu Si ‘niang’s child, who knows when she will give birth to a daughter? What if they give birth to a boy, won’t our Ah Yan be single? There was no reason to arrange a marriage for Erlang first.” No confidence, rather no confidence. With Xie Xian’s sharp eyes, there was no reason he couldn’t tell that she was guilty.
However, the other party pretended not to see it and did not ask. He just treated
it as it was.
“I have only heard that before I get married, I will go to the boss first. But in terms of engagement…I’ve never heard of it.’
Xiao Baoxin expressed that he had tried his best.
Xie Yan was an emperor in his previous life, so he definitely had many women, so he should…He wasn’t that infatuated. Even if he followed his biological father from his previous life, it was impossible for him to be so infatuated and not have that kind of son.
She had miscalculated. She had originally thought of silently agreeing to give the daughter she gave birth to to to the Zu family. She had four sons, and her family style was so upright. She definitely could not miss it.
However, she didn’t say how they were compatible.
Who would have thought that Emperor Yong Ping would interfere and target their Xie family?
Xiao Baoxin didn’t want to marry the royal family. Putting aside the fact that Xiao Ning was able to plot and kill Consort He Shu at such a young age, she was really afraid that a daughter who inherited Empress Xiao’s legacy would marry his son.
If it was a son, she didn’t want to marry a descendant of the royal family who might get involved in the battle for the throne in the future. Didn’t you see the battle between the deposed Crown Prince and the new Emperor? Blood flowed like a river, and countless people died. It took several lifetimes to have a good ending. The Xiao and Xie Families had the merit of helping the new Emperor ascend to the throne. Now, the new Emperor was on guard against them. Countless eyes were staring at them, wanting to find a problem to pull them down.
Even if that person really broke out of the encirclement and entered the Middle East Palace to become the emperor, there would still be an endless number of concubines…
She did not want to have a daughter who would have to fight with countless women for men.
Even though marrying an ordinary person might not necessarily lead to deep love between husband and wife, no matter what, the probability was far greater than marrying an emperor, right?
Being the empress, the mother of a country, and above millions of people had never been her goal.
“. I know what you’re worried about, but I’m in this position and in this kind of environment. There are many things that I can’t change after I say them. At least for now, it was definitely not possible.”Xie Xian was seriously resolving Xiao Baoxin’s concerns.
“Maybe in the future. But he had to discuss it with Xi Silang and Sixth Lady.” Needless to say, Xi Silang’s entire family was in mourning, so they were basically absent from social occasions. There were not many people who could visit him on a normal day. Everyone knew that he was in mourning and did not visit him often.
Xie Xian wasn’t a sociable person to begin with. If he came to visit, there must be something big.
It made everyone anxious.
In the end, when Xie Xian mentioned the marriage between the two families, Xi Silang immediately made the decision. Just based on Xie Xian’s face, he could agree to it. The Xi family really needed the injection of Xiao Baoxin and Xie Xian’s beauty.
These days, Chu Lingzi despised him so much that she doubted his life.
He had never felt so ugly in his twenty years of life.
So what if he was ugly? He was talented.
However, after giving birth to her daughter, there was a huge gap between her and Xi Sanlang’s daughter…
The fact that Xie Xian was interested in her meant that he was talented and Chu Liuniang was pretty. He believed in the Xi family’s tradition. Anyway, they were both self-abased and proud. The little bit of thoughts that Xiao Xiao Baoxin and Chu Liuniang were best friends reminded him of his mother’s little thoughts. He was so shocked that his wings were all gone.
It wasn’t that Xi Silang hadn’t seen Xie Xian’s two sons before. They were both handsome.
Whichever one he gave, he would laugh out loud. Of course, Xie Xian had pointed out that it was the second one. So be it if he was second, he was even better looking! He had no doubt that with the hard work of Chu Lingzi and Xie Qi, the descendants of the Xi family would improve greatly in terms of looks. Of course, if Chu Lingzi gave birth to a boy in the next child and could marry Xie Xian’s daughter, that would be the best combination.
However…The heavens did not follow his script. There was nothing he could do. They couldn’t possibly marry into the same family as the siblings. This was too extreme.
In the end, Xi Silang didn’t even need to discuss with Chu Lingzi before exchanging the birth characters of his two children with Xie Xian. They even exchanged their tokens. He believed that with Xiao Baoxin’s and Xie Xian’s looks, his wife would not disagree. He did not have to worry about being blamed in the future.
Xie Xian handed over the eight characters and the dragon-shaped jade pendant that Xi Silang had placed in the wooden box to Xiao Baoxin, asking her to keep them safe. Seeing that she still looked a little conflicted, he couldn’t help but laugh.
“Why don’t we ask Ah Yan for his opinion? If he wants to marry Xi Si’s daughter, as his father, I’ll do it for him no matter what.”
Xiao Baoxin chuckled. He was often criticized by Xie Xian.
She had a faint thought in her heart. Could it be that this Xie Xian had seen through Xie Yan’s disguise? Her attitude was not like that of a one-year-old child.
It was just that…
If he didn’t have the courage to open this matter up, he would just pretend to be ignorant.
“We’ll talk about it when we’re older.”
Xiao Baoxin mumbled as he handed the engagement box to Tang Li and asked her to put it away.
Tangli and Qingfeng’s marriage was already on the agenda. After Xie Wan got married, she was about to get married too. These days, he was in high spirits, his eyes were sparkling, his legs were agile, and his words were light, in Cai Wei’s words, it was as if he had been injected with chicken blood.
As for Hibiscus and Youmei, they had given up early because Mingyue had a loyal heart for Caiwei. They did not take a fancy to her, so they had the idea of serving Xiao Baoxin for a long time.
Good food was not afraid of being late. With her family’s wife here, she could still treat them badly. She was not afraid of choosing slowly.
As for Cai Wei and Ming Yue, because of Ming Yue’s aggressive stance, Cai Wei had already softened a little. However, she did not want to fall out with her sisters, so she announced that she would only marry when there were plum blossomsand hibiscus.
Ming Yue was anxious. She didn’t want to fall behind others. Now, she was taking the time to recommend various suitable candidates to Xie Xian. She wa: quite active and hardworking.
