Chapter 849: I want to deal with someone who is convenient for me, so I don’t need to
Chen Jing'an is the adopted son of Marquis Jiaxing, and is treated no differently from any other child with the surname Xu.
His parents and family members died many years ago, and the Xu family is his home.
His marriage with Tian Ying'er could only be arranged by the Xu family.
Thinking of the situation at Tian Ying'er's home, Second Aunt Xu said with a hint of sarcasm: "It's just that we are all women in a deep house, and we have never seen the rules that people in the martial arts world talk about."
"Sister-in-law, you have to inquire about this matter carefully in advance. No matter what intentions they have, you can't be careless."
Xu Wenxiu said with a smile: "Do you even need to tell me that?"
"But I asked Jing'an about his opinion, and he just said there's no rush. When the time is right, I'll go and ask for mercy for the girl. That's the only way to be decent."
"But don't worry, I've already prepared everything they need long ago. Whenever they need it, it's always there. I can't afford to be careless at all."
This kind of talk is most likely to arouse people's interest when they are tired and exhausted.
Nan Weiwei herself was not married yet, and had wanted to shamelessly listen to the fun for a while, but in the end she and Xu Yanran were sent away together.
Sang Zhixia sat calmly facing the two envious eyes. Zhizhi never expected that the topic would eventually turn back to herself.
Aunt Xu said cautiously with uncertainty, "Xia Xia, I heard from Yanran that Yanyou sent a letter home, saying that all the family members over there have been confined in the mansion. Did Yanyou go to see them?"
Everyone knows what the Sang family's situation is.
Coupled with Sang Zhixia's previous attitude, everyone lost their previous caution and tried to get rid of this imminent trouble.
Mrs. Xie was a little annoyed: "If you ask me, Yanyou is just messing around."
"Why bother with all this trouble? We could have just gone back quietly, but he insisted on showing up. Isn't that asking for trouble?"
"This is really unfair to Yanyou."
Aunt Xu said quietly, "Even if we don't make it public, there will still be many friends and relatives who will come to visit us. Aren't there people coming to visit me too?"
Mrs. Xie was speechless when she thought about what happened a few days ago.
Aunt Xu said with a sneer on her face, "It's been so many years, and this is the first time my whole family has thought of me."
"Mingyang also said in the letter that he had met his uncles and was very polite. The old man at home even hugged him for a long time and gave him two large boxes of gold on the spot."
Aunt Xu raised her fist and gestured, adding delicately, "My fist isn't even as big as Mingyang's. The lump of gold in that box is even bigger than his hand. This is such an extravagant gesture that anyone who sees it would have to praise his generosity. But what about before that?"
"Who has ever thought about the life and death of the three of us, mother and son?"
Second Aunt Xu came from a wealthy royal merchant family. Although her family was not extremely powerful, they were certainly wealthy enough to rival a country.
But what?
Second Aunt Xu said disdainfully, "If you're poor in a busy city, you'll have no friends or relatives; if you're rich in the mountains, you'll have distant relatives. That's just how people are. It has nothing to do with whether we're low-key or flamboyant; it all depends on our hearts."
The situations of the other people were similar, and they couldn't help showing a bit of coldness on their faces when they talked about this.
Sang Zhixia said calmly, "I heard that these two guys, in Kyoto, were using the young prince's influence to visit the homes of all the powerful people in the city, and they were really showing off. Does Second Aunt know about this?"
Aunt Xu's originally cold face once again showed a smile, and she could not help but nodded: "The two boys are just nonsense, how could I not know?"
The two little ones were of the avenging nature. When they arrived in Kyoto, they had nothing to do except follow the headmaster to gain experience and to show off their power at the homes of their enemies.
Speaking of Sang Yanyou bringing the personal soldiers given by the young prince to visit the Sang Mansion three times in one day, he obviously didn't do anything but scared the people of the Sang family like frightened birds. Even Madam Xie laughed.
Sang Zhixia listened to the laughing voices around her and rubbed her fingertips thoughtfully.
Unlike those who were directly confiscated and beheaded, the Sang family clearly implicated a favored concubine, but Jiang Yubai has not yet made any decision to deal with the Sang family.
The imperial concubine Sang Bingrou, who was once the most favored concubine in the palace, was sent back to the Sang Mansion. The entire Sang family, including their scumbag father who had suffered a stroke and was paralyzed on the bed, are currently confined in the mansion.
Unlike Xu Ou's previous plan of killing someone with a borrowed knife, Jiang Yubai was probably annoyed by Xu Ou's concealment, and now it was obvious that he did not want to help Xu Ou.
This trouble...
Sang Zhixia lowered her eyes and moved the fruit in her hand, muttering absentmindedly, "Xu Yu, let him handle it himself."
She had no feelings for her scumbag father and the people of the Sang family, but she was occupying the body of his own daughter and it was difficult for her to do anything.
Since the trouble has been left until now, let Xu Yu be the bad guy.
Xu Yu sneezed loudly without any warning while sitting on horseback.
Rong Chang, who was following Xu Yu closely, glanced back nervously and said in a daze, "General, Minister Wen and the others are not gathering together to curse. Could it be that..."
"Could it be that he hid and scolded you?!"
Xu Yu: “…”
Xu Yu chuckled expressionlessly, "That's a fresh take."
"If I don't hide, will I not be scolded?"
Rongchang clasped his fists in admiration. Xu Yu turned his horse and said calmly, "Order to reorganize. We will set off in a quarter of an hour."
"We have to speed up."
After Xu Yu finished speaking, he rode his horse to the back of the convoy and happened to meet Qi Lao's raised eyes.
Old Qi withdrew his hand from Sang Zhixia's wrist and nodded calmly.
Xu Yu actually struggled fiercely about whether to let Sang Zhixia accompany the main force.
Sang Zhixia was pregnant and should have rested at home. A long-distance trip would do her more harm than good.
But after the troops withdrew, most of the royal city was empty. Sang Zhixia and the women in her family would have to stay here to take care of the pregnancy, which would delay their stay for at least a year.
In the following year, Xu Yu was deeply trapped in Kyoto and had no energy to spare, nor was there any chance for him to return between the two places.
In the end, it was Old Qi and the Great Wizard who stepped forward and made the final decision.
The two men took Sang Zhixia's pulse three times a day, and as long as Sang Zhixia's physical condition allowed, he would follow the team normally.
Once they discover something wrong, they will send out another team to accompany Sang Zhixia to settle nearby until she recovers and then go forward to catch up with the advancing team.
Fortunately, although Sang Zhixia looked tired during the journey, everything was stable and the baby in her belly was growing healthy.
Xu Yu took today's reassurance and without saying anything more, he made a gesture and ran to the front.
Sang Zhixia reached out to help Qi Lao but was slapped on the back of his hand: "Who is helping whom now?"
Seeing Sang Zhixia still smiling, Old Qi glared at her and said unhappily, "Come on, get in the car with me."
"The journey is getting faster day by day. From today on, you will ride in my car at night. I will keep an eye on you and feel more at ease."
"As for your terrible father..."
Old Qi curled his lips and revealed a sinister sneer: "Girl, don't be afraid."
"If anyone dares to disturb you while you're pregnant again, I'll naturally give them an explanation."
The only real blood relative of Sang Zhixia is his paralyzed father. What's so difficult about this?
If anyone dares to cause trouble to Sang Zhixia, he has plenty of ways to make that person's life worse than death.
Sang Zhixia said with a smile: "What if no one bothers me?"
"What's the big deal?"
Old Qi sneered and said, "I don't need any reason to deal with anyone I want to deal with."
