Xie Mansion

Early in the morning, after breakfast, Mrs. Xie Mingtang, Mrs. Xie and Xie Zhan walked into the conference hall, drinking tea to digest food while waiting for the arrival of the Lu family.

There were two people sitting in the side hall next door, they were Prince Gong and Lu Desheng's immediate superior Yushitai Yushi doctor Zhou Chengzhong.These two people were specially invited by the Xie family. As intermediaries, they will be witnesses after the discussions between the two families are completed.

Fortunately this time the Lu family did not release the Xie family's pigeons like yesterday, and at exactly the right time, Lu Desheng and his wife arrived at the Xie family.

The steward of the Xie family welcomed the two into the meeting hall.

Xie Zhan found out that only Lu Desheng and Lu Desheng came to the Lu family, and Lu Songli didn't come, so he couldn't tell what it was like, feeling lost?It seemed that others had turned around and left, but he was still staying where he was.

After Lu Desheng and Mrs. Jiang sat down at the guest table, and the servants of Xie's family served tea again, Lu Desheng looked around and found that only the two of them were there, and asked, "Is it just our two families? No need to invite someone else? "

Xie Mingtang answered with a smile, "Brother Lu really wants to go with me. We have already invited the middle-aged man. They are drinking tea next door."

Lu Desheng rolled his eyes, it's shameless to call him brother and brother even at this time!

"Who is it?" He asked casually.

"Prince Gong and Doctor Yushi Zhou Chengzhong."

Well, these two are old acquaintances.Lu Desheng nodded. In fact, he didn't care who the Xie family invited. Anyway, after today's talk, they will be settled, and there will be no further entanglements in the future.

After the two exchanged a few pleasantries, Xie Mingtang glanced at his wife and signaled her to start.

Mrs. Xie's expression was a little stiff, and it was only in these two days that Mrs. Xie knew that her father-in-law and her husband and son had lied to her about such a big thing!Lu Songli was unable to conceive an heir because of her body injury while saving her son?No wonder the father-in-law insisted on going his own way at the beginning and insisted on making an marriage for his son in the Lu family. You must know that she didn't agree to pay for his son's life because of it.Now everything makes sense.

When she first found out about this, she was very angry.After all, she is the mistress of the Xie family and the biological mother of her son. They actually concealed such an important matter from her!The reason Xie Mingtang gave was that she was afraid that if she knew about it, she would show it on her face when facing the Lu family.Faced with such an explanation, although she was dissatisfied in her heart, Mrs. Xie knew what she was doing. If she had known that Lu Songli was infertile, she would have unconsciously become critical when she saw her.

Thinking of the sense of superiority she has shown in front of Lu Songli, the future daughter-in-law, all these years, her face becomes stiff.

Mrs. Xie was thinking about how to speak, but Lu Desheng and Mrs. Jiang were too lazy to argue with them, and went straight to the point, straight to the point.

"Let's gossip, I think you all know our reason for coming. Now, your Xie family only needs to return the engagement token and Geng Tie. From then on, our two families will have nothing to do with each other."

Xie Mingtang thought about it and said, "For the marriage between Miss Lv Er and A Zhan, our Xie family has always been full of expectations, and our Xie family has always hoped that Miss Lv Er will marry. People are bound by fate, but now the Empress Dowager has bestowed marriages on the two of them, and the emperor's order cannot be violated, so our two families have to return the Geng Tie and engagement tokens, and then we will marry each other."

Xie's attitude was very low.

Jiang snorted coldly, Xie's family said that she was as innocent as Bai Lianhua.If it wasn't for the Xie family's ambiguous attitude and intentional connivance, why did the Zhao family make such a fuss like moths to a flame?If Mrs. Jiang has been to the later generations, she will know that the Xie family's actions are the actions of a scumbag, and it is irresponsible not to take the initiative or refuse.When people pass by the flowers, a leaf does not touch their body.Disgusting is disgusting, but you can't catch him.

The Xie family changed the subject, "However, our Xie family is very grateful for the fact that the second lady of the Lu family saved Ah Zhan back then, and begged the Lu family to give us the opportunity to allow our Xie family to make up for it."

While talking, Xie Mingtang pushed the box on the table over, the box was slightly opened, and it could be seen that there was a stack of bank notes inside.The denominations are all 1000 taels, and there is a thick stack, which looks to be about [-] to [-] taels, which is equivalent to half the dowry of a wealthy daughter-in-law when she gets married.The Xie family is really generous!

"Here is a 3 taels of silver note, which is the wish of our Xie family. Please accept it for me."

The Xie family has never left anything to criticize in this regard.This money can be regarded as Xie Zhan's life-saving money, how could the Xie family give less?To give less is to mock Xie Zhan for being worthless.

"I hope that although our two families are not destined to become relatives by marriage, we can get together and part ways."

Lu Desheng pushed the wooden box back.

His actions made Mrs. Xie's complexion change slightly, thinking that they looked down on this little money and wanted to make an inch of it.

Xie Mingtang was surprised, did the Lu family reject it?Such a large sum of money.

Xie Zhan also looked up.

"We don't want silver bills! If the Xie family is sincere, they can be converted into food and given to us." Lu Desheng asked directly.

3 taels of grain? !Xie Mingtang and Xie Zhan father and son looked at each other, then Xie Mingtang asked Lu Desheng, "Why do you need so much food?"

Lu Desheng's eyes lit up, Xie's family didn't say they didn't have any, they just asked them why they needed so much food.

On the contrary, Xie Zhan's eyes flickered, and he hurriedly added, "We don't have that much food." The current price of grain fluctuates between four and six silver coins per stone. The grain of 3 taels of silver is worth [-] to [-] shi, right?

Lu Desheng didn't believe it. His daughter had been reading books in his study recently, deliberately collecting information about Xie's family. There must be a basis for her request.

Lu Desheng made a gesture to stand up, "It doesn't matter, you can give the food if you want it, and if you don't want it, let it go." It's okay to talk about compensation, they only accept this kind of compensation, and don't talk about other things.Just like this bank note, they don't accept it.

As soon as Xie Zhan made a sound, Xie Mingtang also reacted.

Xie's father and son looked at each other. This request from the Lu family was either determined that the Xie family had so much food, or that they had a way to raise food. No matter which one it was, it made Xie Zhan's heart palpitate. Know so much about the Xie family?

Can't give!The father and son conveyed this thought to each other in their eyes.

"I don't know what Uncle Lu needs so much food for?"

"Build a shed to give out porridge, help victims of disasters and refugees, and do good deeds for my daughter. I hope that one day in the future, I will meet a good doctor and heal her body, so that she can have a son and a half daughter after marriage." Lu Desheng said very bachelorly .

This statement is a bit poignant, and the reason is well chosen, which makes it impossible to refute. On the premise that Emperor Kang Cheng believed in Buddhism and Taoism, the Xie family could not say that doing good deeds is useless.

What the Xie family meant was, "Can't you take the money and buy it yourself?"

Xie Zhan thought more. The Empress Dowager had just given them a marriage to the Qin and Lu families. It was hard not to think that the Lu family's request was to raise food and grass for the Qin family.Just thinking about it makes me sour.You just gave her a marriage, so you can't wait to think about your in-laws?

Mrs. Jiang stood up, "Forget it, since your Xie family is not sincere, what's the point of talking about it? Master, go back."

Xie Zhan quickly said, "Aunt Lu, our Xie family is very sincere to compensate Miss Lv Er, but it is too embarrassing for you to make this request. Our Xie family really can't do it. Otherwise, you can change to a simpler one?"

Lu Desheng was very displeased, his daughter really hit the mark, the Xie family would not let go of tens of thousands of shi of grain no matter what.And he had never expected that the Xie family had stored so much food!

Mrs. Jiang readily changed her request, "Okay, let's change to a simple one. We want your Xie family's [-]-acre land in Changshi Village, Shangyang County."
