Chapter 171 That means you are tired
I don't know how long it took, but the door of the room opened.
Xia's eyes were abnormally swollen, and her expression was heavy, as if she could not stop crying when suffering suddenly came. She helped the two people who were kneeling up.
"Sister-in-law? No matter what happens, Ajian and I will be by your side." Shen Heng was still worried.
Xia was silent for a moment, then said, "Ajian, Aheng, I want to see him, just from a distance."
"䗽." Xie Jian answered without any hesitation.
No one slept that night.
In the past, Chen Heng and Xie Jian would always chat casually until they fell asleep, but tonight they both stared at the ceiling of the tent for half a day until dawn.
As usual, when the two got up, Xia had already prepared breakfast.
Seeing the two people come in, Xia served them porridge, placed chopsticks and side dishes, and sat down.
"Sister-in-law, you should eat a little too." Seeing that she didn't move her chopsticks, Shen Heng gently persuaded her.
"I'm not hungry, you guys eat."
How can anyone eat when everyone has something on their mind?
Therefore, when they went out, the three of them had empty stomachs.
Xie Jian asked his sister-in-law to wait at the gate of Dali Temple, and to take a look when Tang Zixuan got out of the sedan chair. From their angle, they could just see the person.
When a familiar figure emerged from the official sedan chair, Xia's originally hesitant and nervous gaze gradually became focused.
This is a tall and majestic figure. The husband in her memory is a young man with a burly figure wearing coarse cloth.
His face was handsome and his features were soft, no longer the tough one he had been seven years ago. She still remembered the way he laughed with his hands on his hips.
The man was dressed in an official robe, and when he pursed his lips, he looked a little serious. The subtle authority from him made people feel a sense of distance.
Big tears fell from Xia's eyes. She wiped them away desperately but couldn't wipe them away. Suddenly, her cheeks started to hurt from the calluses on her fingertips. She lowered her head slightly, looking at the calluses on her hands, and then looked at the man not far away who was greeting his colleague from the Dali Temple.
This face became unfamiliar. If it was not what Ajian and Aheng said, even if he stood in front of her, she would not believe that this person was Min'er's father.
"Sister-in-law, my brother will definitely become the brother he used to be. I will definitely bring him back." Xie Jian promised.
Xia wanted to say something, but her throat was so heavy that she couldn't utter a word.
Chen Heng was crying beside him, she really couldn't help at all.
"She lives a very happy life." Xia murmured. Whether a woman and a man are living a happy or not, the expression on their faces can tell everything.
Chen Heng and Xie Jian didn't know who this she (he) was referring to.
"He is exactly like those young masters from aristocratic families that Master Meng met when he got married." Xia clenched her silk skirt with both hands, and the touch of the coarse linen made her let go. Over the years, except for the jewelry and silk skirt bought for her by Aheng, she wore only old clothes and was reluctant to wear new clothes.
"Sister-in-law, one day, I will make a lot of money, and you can use my maids and servants as you like, and wear silk and satin as you like." Chen Heng took her sister-in-law's hand and swore secretly in her heart that she would do what she said.
Xie Jian looked at Ah Heng's angry face and said, "Don't worry, sister-in-law. One day, I will fight for an imperial decree for you. Even Yu Shi will have to pay tribute to you when she sees you. The limit is five years." In five years, he will definitely be able to sit in the position of a first-rank official.
Xia withdrew her gaze and stared at the two people beside her. Yes, for seven years, she had been determined to redress the grievances of her father-in-law, to let Ajian embark on a career in officialdom, and to give Min'er the best job.
