My Ferocious Tigress Wife

Chapter 553: A Blessing in Disasters

Translator: 549690339

Xi Shiqi thought that his grandfather was going too far. He wouldn’t stop until the Xie family lowered their heads.

Old people also had a tough temper.

However, when the news of Tingwei Xi’s actions spread to the chief branch, Twelfth Xi was moved.

Although his grandfather didn’t like him in the residence, when he really faced outsiders, he still sided with him.

However, Mrs. Gu, who was from the eldest branch, was more thoughtful.

Her husband had died early. Although her father-in-law took care of her, she did not have a proper family in the past.

The higher the official position of the fourth branch, the more obvious the sense of loss became. This was especially true for the youngest son, who was not liked by the elders. It was a sore spot in Madam Gu’s heart.

Now, although Chief Justice Xi still had a knot in his heart and was unwilling to be close to Twelfth Wang, he still wanted to protect his grandson. He wanted to take this opportunity to find a job for Twelfth Wang.

Dudolf’s wife was honored, but her husband was gone, so what was there to be honored about? She could only rely on her son.

The eldest son of the Xi family was born in Madam Xi’s womb, but he died when he was ten years old. The few sons he gave birth to after that were all young ladies. Now that they were all married, she could only rely on the 12th son for the rest of her life. However, her father died after the 12th son was born, which violated Xi Tingwei’s taboo.

Now, for the sake of Twelfth Lang.-

Well, maybe it was because the great-great-grandson of the Grand Secretary of the Central Committee of the People’s Republic of China had fallen out with the Xie family, but at least he still had Shi Erlang in his heart.

Mrs. Gu struck while the iron was hot. She went to the back of the house and found Mrs. Ru, who was the old companion of Tingwei Xi. She said all kinds of good things and made a favor. Finally, Mrs. Ru, who was almost forty years old, blew on Tingwei Xi’s pillow.

He just wanted to find a job for Xi Twelfth.

Twelfth Xi Lang would be nineteen years old after the new year. At his age, Xie Xian had already become an official and had become a fifth-grade official of the Yellow Family.

What kind of person was Tingwei Xi? The number of criminals he had seen was probably more than the number of rice that others had eaten in their entire lives. As soon as Madam’s words blew, he knew that the Gu family must be restless and was running for his son’s future.

No matter how much he disliked Xi Twelfth, he was still the only son of his eldest son, who had died early. He had to arrange a good job for him.

However, he only wanted to help his son to the position of the chief justice first. He couldn’t bring his grandson out first. Otherwise, it would appear that the Xi family was greedy for power. If one grandson went down, two would come up immediately. He was afraid of being criticized by others.

However, the situation was different now.

As Xi Clan and Xie Clan had broken off, it was not a big deal for them to find a job for their grandson who suffered a loss in silence. At least, they were not aiming for the position of the chief justice of the provincial court.

“Shi Erlang should be 17 or 18 years old…”

“Nineteen.” Hearing his words, she knew how much he didn’t care. “Mrs. Cai has been in the family for four years, and she’s only pregnant with one child and it’s gone in the blink of an eye…”

“I’m already nineteen. It’s time for me to find a job.”After saying that, Tingwei Xi closed his eyes and pretended to sleep.

Mrs. Ru knew that he did not want to continue the discussion. Fortunately, she had completed what she had promised Mrs. Gu and did not take in a good manor for nothing.

He closed his eyes as well, and a few wrinkles appeared at the corners of his eyes.

Who asked her to not be born high and be born to the second wife, so she did not have much money on hand. She could only marry Tingwei Xi, who had lost his wife in his middle age.

Although Chief Justice Xi treated her well, she was already in her sixties and almost seventy. Who knew if she would die one day? How could she continue in a prestigious family like the Xi family? Without any silver in her hands, even the servants below would not take her seriously.

Fortunately, Tingwei Xi was stubborn and inflexible, so even his sons and grandsons didn’t dare to greet him. She was always the one to talk about everything. This was the good thing about a big family. They knew how to do things and were not stingy with their money. This made Madam Ru do well.

Mrs. Gu naturally spared no expense for her son. She took out the best manor in her hands to exchange for it. If it wasn’t worth ten thousand taels, it would be at least seven or eight thousand taels.

It was worth it to say a few words.

Thus, Twelfth Xi’s matter was considered successful. It was a blessing in disguise. Madam Gu, Chief Justice Xi, and Madam Ru were all satisfied. It was rare.

###

On Xie Qing’s side, Xie Xian brought her back to the Xie residence. On the way, he didn’t even ask how the Jiankang order was passed. When he returned to the residence, he let her return to the Second household.

“Second Shen has just given birth. Although it’s not convenient for you to go over and pay your respects, you should at least care about her.”With this sentence, Xie Qing was dismissed.

Xie Qing was confused. Was her brother that happy for her mother?

It felt even more casual than the snacks he brought back.

However, if he didn’t bring him back to the Xie Manor, the Chief Justice Xi who came out later might not let Xi Eighteen get together with him.

Xie Qing was really obedient. She turned around and went back to the Second household. However, she was intercepted by the Third household on the way. It was rare to meet this master in the Xie residence. Mother Xie had instructed her to send the dead lady to the temple to be ferried away.

Although Madam Wang’s words were not pleasant to the ears, she did her best to handle the matters that Mother Xie instructed her to handle.

It was also because the Wang family had fallen and Madam Wang had always wanted to accumulate some good karma. Why did she have to fight with a dead person? It had nothing to do with the three families. Therefore, he did not do it half-heartedly and actually did it.

“Grandmother…Merciful heart. My concubine’s surname is Liu and her name is Jiuniang.”

He didn’t say anything else.

“Sorry to trouble Third Aunt.”

Madam Wang glared at him.”Your mother risked her life to give birth to your brother. Her body is weak and she still has to worry about you. You can’t anger her anymore.”

“That child, it doesn’t matter where she is raised. Our Xie family doesn’t lack money. We don’t lack them every month. Don’t ruin the harmony of the family for an unpresentable person. Your Twelfth Mother is really good. She is filial to her parents-in-law and friendly to her sisters-in-law. Can you ask around and find out who in the Xie residence doesn’t think your daughter-in-law is good?”

“You’re good. You haven’t even seen your parents when you return to the residence, and you’ve already brought in two pregnant women…It was really a big show of strength.”

After being reprimanded by Madam Wang, Xie Qing found out that Liu Jiuniang’s child had been taken away again.”

“Didn’t father say to stay at home?”

“Your mother didn’t allow you to stay and has already reported it to Grand Furen. Grand Furen instructed to send it to your other concubine.”

Madam Wang still had the heart to answer Xie Qing’s question because she didn’t want him to suspect that it was her niece’s intention. Otherwise, she would have kicked him out.

“Alright, go back and tell your mother. As long as you are filial, perhaps your mother will change her mind and say no.”

She drew a big pie for him.

Then, he picked up his teacup and sent the guests off.

Xie Qing then returned to the second room. Twelfth Madam Wang was still waiting at Lady Cai’s place, so the room was very quiet.

“Before Lady Fang left, she begged Young Master to remember to visit her.”Xie Qing’s servant waited until he saw that there was no one on both sides before he stepped forward and whispered,”After Third Furen sent someone to send the child left behind by Lady Liu, Lady Fang sent someone to ask Young Master what to do and beg Young Master for an idea..”
