Chapter 280 sounds quite tempting to read
Xie Jian toasted Wang Nei Shi and talked about the situation in the palace from time to time, saying how the people in the palace respected Wang Nei Shi and that he and his men had benefited a lot from following Wang Nei Shi.
Chen Heng listened in embarrassment, and saw that Wang Nei Shi was enjoying what he was saying.
After a while, Wang the eunuch talked about how he had been castrated since he was a child and entered the palace, and how he had gone through so many setbacks along the way, lamenting that it was not easy.
"Grandpa, when Min'er grows up, you won't have to work so hard." Little Xie Min said sincerely in his childish voice.
"Good boy." Eunuch Wang kept his mouth shut after hearing this.
Thanks to Xiao Xiemin, they both became more relaxed after the meal.
The next few days were busy with moving.
Even though she had been here once before, when Xia looked at the new mansion again, she was still stunned for a long time looking at the big stone lions at the door and the main gate.
She felt that the mansion bestowed by the government was her greatest blessing. Who would have thought that she could live in such a big house.
Five years ago, the family was still struggling in poverty, but now my brother-in-law has become a high-ranking official in the dynasty.
Inside the gate, the corridors on the left and right lead to two circular gates, behind which is the garden, leading to the back house.
Nanny Feng was outside directing the servants to move things.
Chen Heng took Achan and Tan Yun to tidy up the inner house.
The entire mansion has two large gardens and five small gardens. The main garden is naturally where she and Xie Jian live. Her sister-in-law's garden is on the west side and is an independent courtyard with a small bridge, flowing water, rockery and jade, gravel paths, and colorful gardens. She will never get tired of living there for a lifetime.
The Xie family now has a total of ten servants, which is still too few for a mansion like this.
The shop assistants also called three people to help, and they managed to clean up some of the things by the evening.
Just as the family was having dinner, people from Prince Ning's Mansion suddenly arrived.
"The eldest daughter has brought the young master to visit her parents?" The fatigue on Nanny Feng's face disappeared instantly.
"Yes. The princess invited the nanny to her house to have a meal and chat with the young lady." said the maid.
"Okay. I'll change my clothes and come right away." The nanny smiled and walked into her room. Once inside, the happy look on her face remained, but it had faded a lot.
It was true that Princess Ning had feelings for her; after all, she was a veteran of the palace for decades and had handled countless matters, both large and small. However, the princess was not one to place much importance on the relationship between master and servant, and occasionally inviting her to the palace to speak was considered a great favor.
The eldest daughter's family even asked an old maid like her to have dinner with them. Well, she still has some self-awareness.
Rising tides lift all boats. Now that Lord Xie is the Minister of the Central Secretariat, and there is some rift between Princess Ning and the Xie family, or the Shen family, I'm afraid she will have to be used to ease the relationship.
As for the affairs of the Xie family, Princess Ning will definitely inquire more about them, so she has to deal with them well.
That night, Chen Heng was so tired that she went to bed early, but when Xie Jianqi came, he still woke her up.
"You haven't been sleeping well recently." Xie Jian had just finished taking a shower and sat beside the bed, watching Aheng who had just woken up.
"I'm thinking of you." Chen Heng leaned sideways and looked at him sleepily.
A smile flashed in Xie Jian's eyes: "Me too."
Ouch, that's so corny. Shen Heng patted the seat beside her and said, "Come and sleep."
Xie Jian hummed lightly: "My colleagues are all asking about the housewarming party, so you should find time to hold a banquet."
Shen Heng thought for a moment and said, "Then let's do it in three days."
"Okay." Xie Jian sighed as he lay down.
