"Third brother, you are so nice." With that, Xie Hehua and Xie Laosi got into the car.
The person in charge of the carriage of the Auspicious Brigade was so sad. "Captain Xie's family is so lucky to have Xie Heng!"
"Is this Captain Xie Heng? Didn't he join the army? Why is he back?"
"He must be back to visit relatives."
"He's a handsome guy, but I don't know if he's engaged yet?"
"He, his wife died a long time ago."
"What? Dead?"
"He died a long time ago, but it seems he married another woman in the city. Maybe he came back this time with his new wife to introduce himself to the family."
"Alas, what a pity."
"Why? You still want to introduce someone to Xie Lao San?"
"No?"
"Heh, Liu Pan'er and the captain are so cruel and ruthless, are you willing to let your daughter suffer in their place?"
"Ah, if Liu Pan'er and Captain Xie were better, maybe I would really be willing to let her go. She's just a little girl, what's there to be reluctant about?"
“…”
In the car, as soon as Xie Hehua got in, she saw Zhang Yumei.
Although Zhang Yumei wasn't beautiful, she wasn't bad either. She was usually sheltered from the elements, her skin was much fairer than Xie Hehua's, and her clothes were more fashionable than hers.
Xie Hehua looked at Zhang Yumei's clothes, then looked at her own. She felt like a maid next to Zhang Yumei.
"Third brother, this is my third sister-in-law. You are so beautiful, and your clothes are beautiful too." As she said that, Xie Hehua put her arm around Zhang Yumei, her mouth was so sweet, and she kept saying nice things.
Zhang Yumei looked at Xie Hehua. She had treated her the same way in her previous life, when she first returned to her hometown with Xie Heng. Back then, she had looked down on Xie Heng, and even more so on everyone in the Xie family, so she often belittled him and his family in front of him. This had also distracted her from Xie Heng. In this life, no matter what, she had to maintain good relations with the Xie family and keep Xie Heng's heart on her side.
"You are the third sister, right? When we were in the capital, your third brother often told me about you, saying how well-behaved and filial you were. Now I see that it is indeed true."
Xie Lao Si interrupted, "Third sister-in-law, has my third brother ever mentioned me?"
"Of course your third brother did. He said that you, his younger brother, have been a worry-free person since he was a child, and you will definitely be capable in the future."
Zhang Yumei muttered to herself: Worry-free? Of course, that was impossible, but in the end, she did have the ability. Because of her third brother, Xie Heng, the incompetent Xie Lao Si was able to become a regiment leader under Xie Heng.
If it weren't for Xie Heng, he, Xie Laosi, would only be fit to be a working peasant in the countryside.
Zhang Yumei was being sarcastic in her heart, but she kept saying nice things on the surface. This made Xie Heng in front of her very happy. He felt that Zhang Yumei had brought honor to him. She was not at all like his first wife who could not say anything.
