Chapter 220: Little Expert at Protecting His Brother

Translator: 549690339

The Rong An Hall where Xie Xian was located was in the center of the Xie Manor. Mother Xie was in the west of Rong An Hall, called Yi An Hall.

Rong An Hall was the residence of the family head. After Mother Xie became a widow, she gave up the main courtyard to her eldest son. Later, when Xie Shi Zhong passed away, Mother Xie still favored Xie Xian as the head of the family. She did not want the eldest branch to move out, so she let Xie Xian, who was only seventeen years old, move into Rong An Hall.

Second Master Xie and Third Master Xie were not willing. No matter what, it should not be a junior’s turn. They were uncles, but they had to give way to him.

However, Mother Xie insisted on her own way. She even smashed the cup with Third Master Xie. She wanted to point at his nose and scold him for being ungrateful. Her brother had just died, and she was bullying her nephew.

Third Master Xie was a man who could be forced but not coaxed. After being scolded by Mother Xie, he immediately became obedient and did not dare to make any more trouble.

Second Master Xie was originally a bastard son and had always been obedient in front of Old Madam. Without Third Master Xie jumping up and down, it was not convenient for him, a bastard son, to interfere.

It was inconvenient for the widowed mother to live with her son, so Lady Yuan lived in a courtyard behind the old lady. Out of the three main rooms, one had been converted into a temple hall. She spent most of the day in the temple hall.

Later on, he changed the name of the courtyard to Freedom Courtyard.

It wasn’t far from Rong An Hall or Yi An Hall. They just needed to cross the veranda and a few corner doors.

Along the way, Xie Xian brought Xiao Baoxin along and softly introduced the layout of the Xie Residence to her, as well as the personnel in the residence. It was almost the same as what Cai Wei had heard, but it was not as detailed as what Cai Wei had learned. As a Langjun, it was obvious that his eyes were not on the residence at all.

However, Xiao Baoxin still kept his words in his heart. This was to give her a reassurance.

She wouldn’t take it seriously, but she would wait and see.

After all, he understood her character. She was not the kind to be wronged. Sooner or later, she would get back at him.

In the past, Xiao Baoxin had come to the Xie residence on Mother Xie’s birthday. At that time, he had only taken a cursory look and it was inconvenient for him to take a closer look. Moreover, he was far from being as leisurely as he was now. At that time, she had to deal with the attacks from Yuan Jiuniang and the few young ladies of the Xie family, so she had no time to care about anything else.

As expected of a century-old aristocratic family, the Xie family was low-key and luxurious.

Taking Rong An Hall as an example, there was no need to talk about the display equipment in the room. However, as she entered and exited, she saw a pile of rockery and turquoise stones. According to Cai Wei, there was a pond that was filled with water when she went around it. There was even a small pavilion built at the northeast corner of the water.

Such a beautiful scene was created by money.

Unlike palaces and temples, Xie Mansion does not adhere to the fixed pattern, pavilions, corridors and sills are fresh and free.

After entering Yi An Hall, there was a screen wall painted with pine cranes and longevity. After bypassing the screen wall, there were three main halls, and behind them were five main rooms with carved beams and painted buildings.

When they entered, five or six maids were still sprinkling wine. When they saw Xie Xian, they all bowed and saluted.

Without needing Xiao Baoxin’s instructions, Tangli had already distributed the pouches that she had prepared.

The maids knew that the reward was not small, and they were all overjoyed. Not to mention anything else, the main thing was that they could not say anything. Their madam was beautiful, kind, and generous!

They all thanked him for his reward.

In just a short while, a sound was heard from inside. A15 or 16-year-old girl pushed open the door of a side room next to the main room and came out. She had thick eyebrows and a small round face. She looked very likable.

“When Old Furen heard the voice, she hurriedly sent this servant out to share the joy. This servant Zhilan congratulated Master and Furen. Master and Furen will grow old together and live happily together for a hundred years.”

Her little mouth was eloquent, and her voice was like that of a yellow oriole.

Not only was he good at speaking, he was also afraid that she would not recognize him, so he even reported his name.

“I’ll take your good words.” Xiao Baoxin smiled.

Tang Li didn’t need any instructions. She had a big purse on her head.

Zhilan was not shy and thanked him. She pushed open the door and welcomed Xie Xian and Xiao Baoxin into the house.

In the room, Mother Xie was sitting on the couch while Madam Wang was sitting on the embroidered stool with her two daughters.

“Brother, why is your face so pale? Are you sick again?”Xie Shan had wanted to give Xiao Baoxin a heads-up and trip her up, but she saw that Xie Xian was almost scared out of his wits.

Her face was still red yesterday, but it was already so pale a day later. Was this because of Xiao Baoxin?!

Xiao Baoxin’s mouth twitched. He didn’t even need to touch her to know what she meant, okay? Was this a brainless little expert at protecting his brother?

“What are you shouting for? You’re a big girl now!”Third Madam Wang turned her head and glared at her daughter. Her daughter was unreasonable, did she not understand?

She cared about Xie Xian, but she didn’t even care about her own sister. What was wrong with her??

“Thank you Second Mother for your concern.”Xie Xian said with a smile.

Mother Xie chuckled and did not take it seriously. She greeted,”Come quickly, let me see. Where can 1 find this granddaughter-in-law? She’s so beautiful that she’s going to blind this old woman’s eyes.”

Xiao Baoxin quickly stepped forward and bowed.”

“This little mouth is also sweet.” Mother Xie waved at Xie Xian, who was greeting her.” Sit aside for a while. I’m going to introduce my granddaughter-in-law.””

Xie Xian didn’t mind. Mother Xie was laughing happily, but he was laughing even more happily. The corners of his mouth were almost pulled up to his ears.

Don’t be ridiculous. He looked too much like a fool. Xie Shan covered her face and couldn’t bear to see him.

“This is your third aunt.” Mother Xie pointed at Madam Wang, who had reprimanded Xie Shan earlier, and said,” Because your mother-in-law is lazy, I’ll leave the housekeeper’s affairs to your third aunt. However, I’ve married a new daughter-in-law, so I’ll get used to it first. Then, 1’11 quickly pick up the housekeeper’s affairs. Don’t hide behind both mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.””

Xiao Baoxin agreed with a smile.

Madam Wang was less than forty years old. She had slim shoulders and a long face. She was very beautiful. It could be vaguely seen that Xie Shan had taken after her appearance.

She had always known that Mother Xie was biased towards the eldest branch, so she did not take the matter of management rights seriously. It was already in her heart. She was a stupid woman from a poor family with an extremely evil reputation, and only Xie Xianse was able to make her lose her mind and marry her as a treasure. If he wanted to be a butler, he should have thought about how capable he was.

Madam Wang nodded gently and took a simple sandalwood box from the maid behind her and handed it to Xiao Baoxin.””Originally, I wanted to give my niece-in-law a greeting gift when everyone was here. Coincidentally, 1 came early and took the initiative. It’s also our fate.”

“Thank you, Third Aunt.” Xiao Baoxin thanked him.

In fact, Xiao Baoxin had seen Madam Wang before. She was very arrogant. He didn’t know if it was because she was used to it, but her chin was always used to raising slightly. She was used to being high and mighty.

Then, Madam Wang introduced her to the legitimate children sitting below.

Madam Wang had three legitimate daughters. The eldest daughter had already married the second son of Minister Xu of the Ministry of Revenue. She was now the chief historian of Yongzhou and the prefect of Xiangyang. Naturally, she could not come. The second daughter, Xie Shan, was fifteen years old and had a beautiful oval face. His third daughter, Xie Yan, was only six years old, but she was already as beautiful as a painting, and she looked 50 – 60% like Xie Shan..
