Chapter 374 - 374: The New and The
Madam Xie shifted all her artillery fire onto Xiao Baoshu.
Obviously, if he didn’t do such a thing to make her angry and scared, she definitely wouldn’t do such a blind thing.
“I was just thinking about it. It’s been so long and there’s no news. If I didn’t tell you, you’d be angry. Look at your mouth. Are you anxious?” Madam Xie said guiltily.
Xiao Baoxin smiled but did not say anything. In the end, he did not tell Madam Xie about what Xie Xian told him about Xiao Baoshu.
He was afraid that his mother would think too much and blame them again.
“It’s all thanks to mother for giving me accurate information. Baoshu also helped our Xiao family gain face. He is doing it! Xiao Baoxin had blown up Xiao Baoshu. This matter had been handled brilliantly!
She naturally hoped that her little brother would have a smooth sailing and grow up like a sapling.
However, the problem was that the sapling was a little crooked. Now that he had one, whether it was for the country or for his family, he was a man if he could stand up for it!
Madam Xie’s words of pride were more or less comforting Xiao Baoxin and also meant to comfort himself. However, Xiao Baoxin was genuine and did not have any falsehood.
“I didn’t receive any news before, so Xuan Hui was worried too, so he sent two hundred men of sacrifice from the Xie family to Jingling to protect Baoshu. Therefore, mother, don’t worry. With the Xie family’s men of sacrifice and the elite soldiers sent by father to protect Baoshu, the safety of Baoshu is at least guaranteed.”
When the treasure tree grew up, Mother had to let go, right?”
That’s your brother. The problem is that he’s a piece of meat that fell from your body. Your son, see if you still want to say that you have to let go.
Madam Xie’s eyes clearly disagreed, but she didn’t argue with her on account of Xiao Baoxin’s pregnancy.
She was pregnant, but she had not given birth yet. If she really raised the child, she would understand how it felt to be a mother. When the time came, if Xiao ’ Baoxin was still like this, she would admire him.
However, now was not the time to fight for this.
How experienced was she to demand an explanation from her pregnant daughter?
However, Xie Xian’s actions made her extremely satisfied.
In the past, she was worried that Xie Xian’s body was not good enough. Now it seemed that not only was he good, but he was also extremely good to her daughter. He even cared so much about the Yue family’s matters. Her daughter had married the right person.
She trusted Xiao Baoxin very much now.
Back then, he was the one who picked it himself and took a fancy to Xie Xian. Indeed, no one else could compare to him in terms of speed, accuracy, and ruthlessness.
At that time, if someone had told her that if she married Xie Xian, her daughter would be considered to have married into Fu Wo’s nest, she would definitely think that the other party had ill intentions and had tricked her family’s Bao Xin.
“From what I see, other than the fire blisters on your mouth, your complexion is fine. You’re chubby. The Xie family is really concerned.’Madam Xie’s heart calmed down when she saw her daughter.
In all aspects, especially Xiao Baoxin’s position in his in-laws ‘family, it was something that he did not even dare to think about in the past.
In terms of life, it had to be her Baoxin.
She had a bad temper and bad hands, but she was beautiful. She was also kind and had her own opinions. To be objective, there were good and bad people. However, humans were like this. Who was perfect and flawless? The Xie family was indeed a hundred-year-old family. They were magnanimous and tolerant of their Xiao Baoxin.
Every time Madam Xie thought of the Xie family, she would always be grateful. If she met an unreasonable family, wouldn’t her daughter be the one in trouble?
“You’re doing well in the Xie family. As a daughter-in-law and granddaughter-in-law, you must be filial to the elders and be harmonious with your sister-in-law and sister-in-law. If you really can’t stand it, you can’t do anything to them, understand?”
“Those are all weak little ladies. You won unfairly and used a sledgehammer to kill a chicken, do you know that?”
“Even if it’s because of how much the elders of the Xie family treat you, you should restrain yourself. No matter how good she was, she had the word ‘Xie’ on her head. She was the legitimate wife of the Xie family. The same blood flowed in her bones. Which elder wouldn’t feel heartache if you hit her? Whether it’s ethics or righteousness, it’s wrong for you to hit someone.”
Xiao Baoxin was shocked. After three days of separation, a scholar should have a whole new level of respect. Even his mother had put a big hat on her head, and she still had to talk about ethics and righteousness…
Madam Xie rambled on for a long time, and her restless heart finally calmed down. She only had these words to instruct her daughter. After all, she was a married daughter, and it was not easy to meet her. It was not as boring as before when she was not married.
It was not common now, so it had become a hot commodity.
She asked Xiao Baoxin about his body and the child in his stomach. In the past, he could not eat anything, but now that he was well, he wanted to eat anything. Her daughter was different from the rest. She was open and unrestrained.
This conversation lasted for another hour. He was just about to leave when Xiao Baoxin stopped him. His mother had come anxiously. It was not easy to meet him, so she would not let him leave without even eating lunch.
Before the mother and daughter could argue, Madam Yuan went to Rong An Hall. This time, it wasn’t her daughter who stayed, but the in-law’s wife personally came out to ask her to stay.
“I was rash and came to visit. No matter what, I should have paid my respects to Grand Furen first.”Madam Xie blushed. She was indeed rude in this matter. She was so anxious that she had gone crazy. Her stomach was filled with grievances and her head was filled with lawsuits. She had even forgotten the etiquette of coming to her door.
However, he still had to say what he needed to say. Otherwise, it would be bad for his daughter’s reputation.
She immediately told Lady Yuan about Xiao Baoshu’s willingness to stay in Jingling to fight against the rebels. She also knew that she would be adding color to her face if she said this.
“Baoshu and Baoxin have a good relationship. I’m not afraid that Baoxin will be worried if she doesn’t hear from Baoshu for such a long time. Yesterday evening, I received a letter, so I rushed over to tell her early this morning. As expected, this child had a mouth full of fire bubbles.”
“Indeed, like father, like son!” Mrs. Yuan suddenly realized that this was a serious matter.
She didn’t know what Madam Xie was thinking, but she, she couldn’t rest assured. Her heart had to be clenched every day.
In the past, she had only heard that Xiao Baoshu was a lawless person who would attract cats and dogs all day long. Now, it seemed that it was true. Dragons gave birth to dragons and phoenixes gave birth to phoenixes. It was nonsense, but when something big happened, she had to say that he could stand up!
With Madam Yuan blocking her way, how could Madam Xie escape? She immediately went with Madam Yuan and Xiao Baoxin to pay her respects to Mother Xie.
Since Mother Xie had asked for a meal, Madam Xie did not dare to refuse, so she called for Madam Wang and Madam Cai’s two wives and the little lady to come over for a meal. The scene was grand, giving Madam Xie enough face.
The news of Xiao Baoshu staying in Jingling inevitably spread.
Everyone started to praise him. Even Madam Wang, who had always looked down on the Xiao family, could not help but praise Xiao Baoshu like a flower. She just didn’t have a son. If she could give birth to a son, she would rather have a son like Xiao Baoshu. He didn’t care about small things, but he was also not ambiguous about big things. He had the spirit of a young man.
Madam Xie was smiling on the surface, but she was actually bitter on the inside.
The righteousness was there, but if she had to choose, she would rather her son run away and come back to Jiankang in one piece.
She would rather not have such a reputation.
However, it was already a done deal, and she couldn’t change it. She had to take the reputation. Not only did he want it, but he also wanted it to be a big deal Not only did he want the Xiao family to gain face, but he also wanted Xiao Baoxin to gain face in his in-laws ‘family.
Their Xiao Baoshu only knew how to cause trouble, but he was also a young hero who had the heart, courage, and chivalry!
