Chapter 056 Are you so thoughtful?
"I'll go in and pack my things." Xie Jian turned and went into the living room.
Seeing Xia looking at them coldly, and recalling what had happened in the past, the second uncle said uncomfortably, "Then let's go wait outside." Then he walked out the door.
"How dare they say such a thing to Ajian? Ajian actually agreed. He wasn't like this before." Xia didn't understand what was wrong with her brother-in-law. In the past, he would have definitely refused such a thing, but now he was still smiling.
Chen Heng thought about the changes in Xie Jian over the past few days. From an ordinary person's perspective, this boy seemed to be becoming more and more normal, being kind to others and having good manners.
"Aheng, please send Ajian to the yamen later." Xia said.
"What am I going to do at the government office?"
"Go ask Lord Lu how Ajian is doing in the academy."
"Sister-in-law, Ajian is not a child anymore." How could Xie Jian be bullied now? It's good enough that he doesn't plot against others. Besides, Lord Lu is here too.
"That's true. I'm still a little worried. You can go there and ask, and you'll have a better idea." Xia said as she went into the kitchen to get the pancakes that had just been baked that morning. She wanted to get some eggs for Lord Lu, but then she thought he wouldn't accept them, so she gave up.
When Xie Jian came out of his room, he only took two books with him. Knowing that Chen Heng was going to accompany him to the government office, he didn't say anything.
"Then you guys go. The third brother and I won't go." The second uncle looked at the three young men in front of him with a smile. These three people are the hope of the Xie family.
The three of them bowed and headed towards the yamen.
Along the way, Xie Cui and Xie Kang said some words to liven up the atmosphere, talking about how smart Xie Jian was when he was a child, and how they took him to play together. Among their peers, the three of them had a very good relationship and so on.
"Then, every time my brothers came home for the ten-day holiday, I would go out to play with them, but why did you always stay home and not see me?" Xie Jian asked with a smile. "I still remember one year, when we were short of money, I went to my brothers' house to borrow some rice, but they beat me out."
Chen Heng remembered that his sister-in-law had told him about this matter. It seemed that the family had a very good relationship with Xie Jian's family in the past.
Xie Cui's expression changed and he smiled awkwardly.
Xie Jianxiao continued, "I think there must be some misunderstanding."
"Yes, yes, it's all misunderstandings. There will never be such misunderstandings again." So many years have passed, and Xie Cui didn't expect Xie Jian still remembered it. He just hoped that Xie Jian really thought it was a misunderstanding and it would not affect their future relationship.
Xie Kang felt relieved, fortunately he was not hurt. He looked up and saw Xie Jian smiling at him, so he forced a smile too.
Xie Jian is good-looking. Although he is not a handsome man according to traditional aesthetics, he definitely fits the appearance of a popular male protagonist. So when he smiles, even if there is coldness or even gloom in his eyes, it is easy to be ignored. After all, no one will stare at a person's eyes all the time while talking.
Chen Heng saw it, her eyes showing deep thought.
"Xie Jian, you're here." The yamen runners were changing shifts.
"Brother Gu, Brother Yu, good morning." Xie Jian greeted them. "Are you all ready?"
The two sturdy yamen runners looked at him in surprise. This kid is quite good. Two days ago, they asked him not to have such a stern face as if he had been given a lot of silver. Now he figured it out in one go.
"My Lord is discussing matters with the people in the room, and it will be ready soon."
Xie Jian pointed at the two people beside him and said, "Brother Gu, Brother Yu, these two are my brothers from the same clan. They want to see you. I have something else to do, so I want them to wait in the government office first."
"Okay, go into the living room and wait."
Xie Cui and Xie Kang's faces lit up with joy, and they quickly said "Xie Xian" and went in first.
"Where are you going?" Chen Heng asked when she saw him walking towards Zhongyi Bridge.
