Wan Linming was surprised at first when he heard this, but soon he clapped his hands and laughed, and began to discuss the matter with Xie Shu with great interest.
It was not only because Wan Linming was attracted by the concept of investing that Xie Shu mentioned, but also because he was optimistic about Xie Shu himself.
Over the years, Wan Linming has met many talented scholars, but none of them is like Xie Shu, who can remain calm and composed in front of him regardless of praise or criticism.
Wan Linming recalled that when he was this age, he was not as good as Xie Shu in handling affairs, otherwise he would not have left the court. In Wan Linming's opinion, Xie Shu behaved in an extraordinary manner, had strategies and amazing insights, and could be said to have the talent to assist the king!
Wan Linming even had a vague premonition that Xie Shu's future achievements would be limitless.
Therefore, Wan Linming's attitude towards Xie Shu was particularly different.
At this time, Wan Linming once again compared his son with Xie Shu in front of him, and felt that there was a world of difference between them. If Wan Tianyun could be even a bit like Xie Shu, he would be satisfied.
Wan Linming suddenly had an idea. Now that Xie Shu was going to hold a literary gathering, which involved many affairs, it would be better to let Wan Tianyun follow Xie Shu and learn how to do things...
Xie Shu came out of the Wan Mansion and got on the Yu family's carriage. Xi Mo saw that Xie Shu looked calm and was unsure whether Xie Shu's trip would be smooth.
But the master is so powerful, he won’t fail, right?
Xi Mo scratched his head and secretly clicked his tongue. He didn't know since when, but his master developed a personality that never showed her emotions. The only difference was when she was in front of her husband.
Even though Xi Mo has followed Xie Shu for so many years, he often cannot guess his master's thoughts.
Fortunately, his master had a kind temperament and taught him patiently on weekdays. In the past six months, he never lost his temper and never made things difficult for him deliberately.
Therefore, Xi Mo felt close to Xie Shu but also had a sense of awe towards him.
The wheels rolled, and the carriage left the Wan Mansion. Xi Mo lowered the curtain and just turned around to talk to his master, when he saw Xie Shu looking at him indifferently, saying in a calm tone, "Xi Mo, have you forgotten to tell me something these days?"
There was clearly no sign of anger in the master's eyes, and even his questions were so normal, but Ximo held his breath at that moment, and his whole body became a little stiff.
Xi Mo had no idea why Xie Shu asked this. He was loyal to his master. Usually, his master asked him to pay attention to various matters in Jinling. Xi Mo would report every once in a while to Xie Shu on every detail.
But if there was anything Ximo had to hide from his master, it was only about Wei Qingtong...
Since the master woke up after falling into the water half a year ago, it seemed as if she recognized Wei Qingtong. She no longer missed Wei Qingtong as much as before, but instead treated her husband wholeheartedly.
Xi Mo was so happy that he wished he could completely erase Wei Qingtong from his master's mind. However, Xi Mo also knew that Wei Qingtong and his master were childhood sweethearts, and they had been "entangled" for so many years. How could he just erase them?
These days, when Xi Mo learned that Wei Qingtong was going to be taken in as a concubine by Su Kai, he hesitated whether to tell his master, but Xi Mo did not say it in the end.
First of all, Wei Qingtong has nothing to do with the master. If the master wants to intervene, what status can he use to intervene? The Su family is rich and powerful in Jinling, and only the Yu family can suppress it now... In this case, does the young master have to take action?
Secondly, the master and Wei Qingtong did have a history, and Master Yu had also used this matter to stir up trouble. If the master had not been vigilant and the young master had not dug deep into the matter, who knows what the outcome of this matter would have been?
Now that the master and her husband are living in harmony, Ximo doesn't want the master to get involved in this mess, so Ximo decides to keep it secret.
I didn't expect Xie Shu to know now...
Facing Xie Shu's gaze, Xi Mo did not dare to quibble, let alone lie. He gritted his teeth and said, "Master, Xi Mo did hide the matter about Wei Qingtong from you. If you want to punish me, I dare not complain. But if you let me choose again, I will still not tell you."
Having been with his master these days, Ximo knows how his master does things.
The master will not blame him for his one mistake, as long as he makes up for it in time.
So in this situation, Ximo knew that he should admit his mistake immediately.
But only on this matter did Ximo disobey his master.
Xi Mo didn't dare to breathe. He knew that his master would be angry after hearing this, no matter how good his temper was. But he would rather Xie Shu take his anger out on him than keep it in his heart and have a conflict with his husband when he got home.
At this time, Xie Shu's face was as gloomy as water, and his brows were twisted into a deep line.
During this period of time, Xi Mo had never seen Xie Shu so angry before, and he was terrified. He was about to kneel down and apologize, but he heard Xie Shu say calmly: "When did I say I would punish you?"
From the very beginning, when Xie Shu heard Wan Tianyun's words, he was indeed shocked. It was the first time he knew that the original soul was in love and even had an "old lover".
But in the past six months, Xi Mo never mentioned it, but concealed it everywhere. From this point, it can be seen that Xi Mo is really doing it for his own good. All those details and clues also matched up. This is why Xi Mo always advised him not to cling to the past and to be devoted to his husband after he woke up.
At this time, Xie Shu also understood one thing, that is, before he came to this world, after his original body got married, he was still obsessed with his old lover, so Xi Mo acted like this.
This undoubtedly gave Xie Shu a huge sense of absurdity. Did the original body actually marry Lang Jun under such circumstances?
When she thought of this, Xie Shu felt an indescribable heartache and pity for her lover.
In fact, Xie Shu had never doubted Langjun. He knew what kind of person Langjun was and how good he was.
But he never knew how much injustice his lover had suffered when he was not looking.
Langjun was treated like this by his original body, but when he woke up and went to see Langjun, Langjun had no resentment towards him.
He will always remember that day when he went to see his lover. His lover came from behind him and smiled at him generously. At that time, his lover was like a dream to him.
Just now, Xie Shu had been reflecting on how much insecurity his indecision and hesitation had caused to his lover these days.
Fortunately, the only thing Xie Shu could be thankful for was that after she woke up, she had not had any entanglement with anyone, let alone the so-called "old lover". It seemed that she had not made her husband sad...
But Xie Shu never expected to hear the three words "Wei Qingtong" from Xi Mo's mouth.
After many days, Xie Shu only met Wei Qingtong once. He actually couldn't remember Wei Qingtong's appearance very clearly, but the scene at that time was still vivid in his mind.
In other words, Yu Wanchun did not deliberately frame himself, but it was because of his original body that he started with the Wei family.
And what kind of mood was the husband in when he arrived?
When Xie Shu thought of this, how could he not be angry? He was angry at himself.
Xi Mo stared at Xie Shu blankly. He never expected that his master did not punish him under such circumstances. His master really changed, and he should not judge his master with his previous thoughts.
At this time, Xie Shu glanced at him quietly and said in a deep voice: "Ximo, I won't punish you because I know you are wholeheartedly for me, but it doesn't mean you have no mistakes. No matter who you are, you should not exceed the responsibilities I give you."
Xi Mo's heart trembled, and he immediately understood what Xie Shu meant. He was working for his master, and only his master had the power to make decisions. He should trust his master and not act on his own.
Seeing Xi Mo bow his head and admit his mistake, Xie Shu also spoke up: "Okay, tell me the whole story of this matter."
Ximo then recounted the whole story in detail.
After listening to this, Xie Shu fell into deep thought without saying anything.
Xie Shu remembered that Wei Qingtong's parents died one after another because of that incident, but his fate did not get better because of it. Just a few months later, he fell into misery again.
Although Xie Shu knew that Wei Qingtong was not a good person, as could be seen from the previous details, Xie Shu also knew that this was not a reason for him to be coerced.
Xie Shu was also deeply impressed by Su Kai, the other party in the incident. He once went to Langjun's house to threaten him. People like him will use any means to achieve their goals.
And the reason why Su Kai is now making such a big fuss about taking Wei Qingtong as his concubine is worth exploring.
But even though he knew how ugly this matter was, it was difficult for Xie Shu to find a legitimate solution, because marriage in this era was arranged by parents and matchmakers, and the individual's wishes had nothing to do with it.
Of course, even if Xie Shu was in trouble, he would never let his lover worry about it. He had hurt his lover before without knowing it. Now that he knew everything, how could he bear to let his lover suffer any injustice again?
I don't know how long it took, but the frame stopped at the familiar steps.
Xie Shu leaned down and got off the carriage, but he did not walk into the house immediately. Instead, he stood outside and pondered for a long time, then straightened his clothes and went into the house.
Yu Chuxi was working in the study room. When he heard the servant come to report that Xie Shu had returned, he raised his eyebrows slightly, and the corners of his lips rose unconsciously. The red pen was frozen in his hand, and he did not write another word.
But after waiting for a while, Xie Shu didn't come over, Yu Chuxi couldn't help but ask. When he knew the reason, his brows frowned, and a complicated light flashed in his eyes. He was no longer in the good mood just now.
Suddenly, there was a gentle knock on the study door, and the man's voice came from the other side, as gentle as always: "My dear, can I come in?"
Yu Chuxi was silent for a moment, and said "hmm" softly, but after answering, Yu Chuxi regretted it a little. He didn't know why, but he didn't want to see him now.
But even so, the moment Xie Shu pushed open the door, Yu Chuxi's heart was still pounding for him, and the conflicted and nervous mood was so complicated.
Yu Chuxi didn't look up, nor did he meet Xie Shu's eyes.
After Xie Shu entered the room, he saw that her husband was concentrating on his work. Unlike before, this time her husband did not smile at him.
Xie Shu shouldn't have disturbed her husband when he was busy, but Xie Shu still wanted to say a few words to him before leaving.
Xie Shu walked to her lover's side and saw that she still didn't look up, but her long eyelashes trembled slightly under his gaze. At this time, Xie Shu realized something, her lover seemed to be deliberately ignoring her.
Xie Shu suddenly squatted down to the level of Langjun, gently touched his cheek with his hand and said, "Langjun, just look at me?"
