Chapter 19 Xie Qi
"Jingyuan is here?"
Upon seeing Xie Jingyuan, Xie Sanniang beamed with joy, even the wrinkles on her face seemed to fade.
"mother."
Xie Jingyuan, dressed in a moon-white robe, strode into Yujin Hall.
Xie San Niang held Xie Xuchuan's hand in one hand and Xie Jingyuan's hand in the other, her eyes brimming with joy.
Xie Boyu wore a faint smile, while Xie Chengzhi and his wife looked disdainful.
Xie Chengzhi was indignant and wanted to say a few more words, but before he could speak, Xie Sanniang glared at him and shut him up.
"Shut your mouth! If Huizhou were such a good job, would you have given it to Xuchuan?"
Xie Sanniang snorted coldly: "You are lazy and arrogant. You won't accept what I give you. All you do is stare at what others have. You cause trouble in the house every day."
"My second brother was doing it for the family."
Xie Jingyuan patted his mother's hand: "You mustn't get angry before meals, otherwise you won't get to eat the fresh fish that your child caught himself."
Xie Jingyuan was just over twenty years old. He was eight feet tall and naturally gifted.
Even a simple, elegant straight-cut robe can make a person look dashing and dashing.
Moreover, his every move exuded a carefree and unrestrained air, making him stand out in the crowd and impossible to ignore.
His words immediately delighted Xie Sanniang, who burst into laughter: "How could that be? The fish that Jingyuan caught himself is better than any delicacy."
Seeing the couple's unpleasant expressions, Xie Jingyuan said, "A friend of mine gave me an imported mercury mirror. I am not yet married and have no need for such delicate things belonging to women. I will have someone deliver it to my sister-in-law's room in a little while."
Imported goods are always expensive, and Xie Chengzhi and Zheng Shu are used to being greedy. Upon hearing this, their faces relaxed and they smiled.
Xie Boyu helped Xie Sanniang sit down and secretly cast an admiring glance at Xie Jingyuan from behind her.
Xie Jingyuan raised his eyebrows slightly, implying that Hua Nanzhi looked unwell.
Xie Boyu was in a dilemma, and Xie Jingyuan couldn't help but wink at him.
This was a secret code between the two brothers since childhood. Xie Boyu knew that he meant that he had also brought a gift for Hua Nanzhi, so that Hua Nanzhi could use it to please his wife later.
Xie Boyu smiled, clasped his hands in gratitude, and shook them at his dear third brother.
Although the two made many small gestures, no one paid any attention to them.
With Xie Jingyuan and Xie Xuchuan around, Xie Sanniang's smile never stopped.
With the matriarch of the Xie family in a good mood, the house was naturally filled with peace and harmony.
The earlier quarrel dissipated like dust, replaced by family joy.
The room was filled with laughter and chatter. Even Xie Lurong, who was usually timid and shy, pursed her lips and chatted with her maid with a smile.
Until Xie Qi walked into the house.
The entire room fell silent for a moment.
Xie San Niang suppressed her smile, and the second wife and husband exchanged a strange glance.
When Hua Nanzhi saw Xie Qi, she turned her face away lightly, while Xie Boyu looked unusually embarrassed.
"Grandson greets grandmother."
Xie Qi walked up to Xie San Niang and greeted her.
Xie San Niang asked, "Is the minnow ready? If it is, then let's eat."
Having said that, he led the old woman beside him to the mahogany table on the side.
Hua Nanzhi got up and followed, followed closely by the second branch of the Xie family, leaving Xie Qi standing in place.
Although Xie Qi and Xie Xuchuan are twin brothers, they do not actually look alike, and their physiques are not indistinguishable like twins.
He was much taller than Xie Xuchuan, and showed none of the thinness of Xie Xuchuan's youth.
Xie Qi's features closely resemble Xie Jingyuan's, but unlike Xie Jingyuan's refined and gentle demeanor, he has thin and sharp eyelids, and his extremely handsome face gives him an air of aggression.
Moreover, Xie Qi had a wasp waist, broad shoulders, and long, strong legs. Although they were twins, it was as if he had matured on his own, secretly leaving Xie Xuchuan behind.
Seeing that everyone ignored him and left, Xie Qi lowered his eyes, slowly concealing all his subtle thoughts, looking rather gloomy and lonely.
