As long as he was alive.
Wen Jiu changed into a set of clothes and waited for the swelling to disappear a little before he arrived at the Songhe Hall.
The Old Madame Xie was coaxing the two little ones to sleep, Xie Wanjin and the Third Master of the Third Madame Xie were sitting in the courtyard, the servants had exchanged some tea on the stone table, none of them had the intention to drink tea.
Once she entered, Xie Wanjin stood up and asked anxiously: Where's elder brother? And … How is Xiaowu? ”
”When I came out, Fifth Young Master had already gone to sleep.” Wen Jiu immediately avoided the question in front.
Fortunately, Xie Wanjin's mind was in a mess, so he did not think too much about it.
Third Madame Xie pulled Wen Jiu to the side and sat him down, ”Jiu, you should also rest for a bit, have you been tired all day?”
Wen Jiu shook his head, ”I'm fine.”
”It's all Xie Yuming's fault!” He left his main wife at home, running around to the east and west, and saved a woman like that, a snake and a scorpion! Not only did you harm second sister's head, even Xiaowu was born sick and weak … ”
Third Madame Xie could not help but curse.
Xie Yucheng, who always had a good temperament, advised: ”Second brother has already left for so long, what's the use of scolding him? For the younger generation to see something like this, it would be bad. ”
Wen Jiu pondered for a moment, then remembered who they were talking about.
Xie Yuming was the second son of the Old Madame Xie, the father of Xie Xuan, and he had passed away many years ago.
It was even said that she was born extremely well in her youth, that she had caused a good stir in the Changping County because of her debts, and now that she thought about it, it should be because of Xie Xuan's mother.
In a blink of an eye, so many years had passed. At that time, none of them were still alive, leaving Xie Xuan and Xie Xuan behind in the human world, who were suffering because of their crimes.
Third Madame Xie was persuaded by Xie Yucheng, his face filled with anger and heartache. He felt that Xie Qi had a tough life, and knew that he was born to be miserable.
Then, he heavily sighed.
Wen Jiu rubbed between his brows, his thoughts gradually becoming clearer, he asked softly: ”Fourth Brother, did you say this morning that you found the Fifth Young Master at the exchange with the gold?”
Xie Wanjin glanced at the first time he laid eyes on Xie Qi, then rushed over and hugged Xiaowu and his brother for an hour. The surrounding people tried to persuade him to fight to his death for a long time without bringing up his hand, before nodding and saying, ”That's right.”
Wen Jiu was about to stand up, but he stood up right after, ”Go and throw away the thousand for gold? I'll go with you! ”
”Where are you going!?” Sit still. ” Third Madame Xie was so angry that he almost smashed the teacup onto him, ”How long is this going to take, you ignorant fool, why are you causing trouble here!”
”Fourth Brother, it's so tiring to smack it. Why not just directly buy it?” Wen Jiu held the teacup, took a sip of tea at a leisurely pace, and said with eyes as black as ink, ”To let a person in the thousand gold exchange experience the consequences of provoking my Xie Family, what kind of outcome would that be!”
Xie Wanjin felt that it was logical and laughed, ”Alright, let's do as you say.”
These two people would use silver to smash people together. Third Madame Xie and Xie Yucheng listened on the side and were left speechless.
Not long later.
Old Madame Xie slowly walked out of the house. In just a single day, she had become a lot more haggard because of the worry in her heart.
Wen Jiu stood up, and went to support the old lady, and said warmly: ”Grandmother, take care of yourself, in two days, I will bring Fifth Young Master to Western Mountain City, when we return, Grandmother will be fine as well.”
”Jiu.” Old Madame Xie sat down on the stone table, held Wen Jiu's hand, and asked with great care: ”Are you really going to marry Xiaowu?”
