The Xie family is already informed of Song Wei's contribution to the suppression of bandits and was given a large house in the courtyard for five years.

Seeing his promising third nephew, Aunt Xie praised him without hesitation.

Song Wei greeted him and sat down, and asked, "Why haven't you seen Xie Zheng recently? Is he very busy?"

Although the two were in the same yamen, Xie Zheng was a Shujishi who had no rank and was not considered a formal Hanlin official. His main task in the first three years was to study in the Hanlin Academy, and he would be awarded a formal official position based on his assessment results three years later.

At the beginning of the Hanlin formation, Xie Zheng would wait for Song Wei when he went to the yamen. The two of them came back together. After a long time, they went their separate ways. It was not that their friendship was weak, but that Song Wei was step by step and his position was different. The time he went to the yamen was often not accurate. Xie Zheng was busy going home, so he did not come to him anymore.

Including the month that went to Ningzhou to suppress the bandits, Song Wei did not see Xie Zheng one day.

When Aunt Xie heard this, he hesitated for a moment and said, "He seems to have a lot of things to do now. He often goes out early and comes back late, and he doesn't know what he is busy with."

After hearing this, Song Wei did not answer the conversation, and his expression was thoughtful.

Aunt Xie immediately greeted Mrs. Song and Dad Song, who were beside him, "Second brother, second sister-in-law, what are you all doing?"

Mrs. Song didn't hide it, "Isn't this a house where Sanlang made contributions to the bandits? I happened to be free today, so I went over and took a look."

Aunt Xie's eyes lit up, "How is it, is that place big?"

"It's quite spacious." Mrs. Song briefly summarized three words.

"When will you move here?" Aunt Xie asked again.

Mrs. Song didn't say anything and looked at Song Wei.

Song Wei said: "I have asked someone to help with the repairs. When it's almost done, let my mother watch the day and move over."

With words, I never forget to save face for those who are mothers.

Pooh Song felt relieved after hearing this.

Aunt Xie thought of something and showed a little embarrassed to say, "Sanlang, did I misunderstand you last time?"

Song Wei looked over in confusion.

Aunt Xie continued: "When I came before, I asked Mom Cao, and she said that the people who came to your house were guests and had left. I thought that some adults gave it to you as concubine..."

Song Wei smiled calmly and said, "When I sent Concubine Duan to the Rehe Palace last year, these three little palace maids were infected and brought back to treat me. After that, they have been staying at our house and only left when Concubine Duan came back from Rehe Palace."

Aunt Xie was stunned, "Is it a palace maid?"

"Um."

"Then, why did you ask someone to set up such a good room?"

Song Wei said: "Even if you are a palace maid, you are a servant around the noble person, so you can't neglect it."

This reason undoubtedly convinced Aunt Xie, "That's true."

Mrs. Song sat down next to the kang and asked her, "You made a special trip just to ask this?"

"Yes, not all." Aunt Xie returned to the topic, "I just wanted to ask, what will be done with this yard after your family moved in?"

Song Wei asked without answering, "Does your aunt have any ideas?"

Aunt Xie hesitated for a while and said, "I'm thinking about whether I want to sell it to our family?"

Seeing Song Wei's face showing confusion, Aunt Xie said again: "We have many families, and if you have children and adults add one, it is inevitable that there will be bumps and bumps between the two rooms. If Sanlang, you agree to sell, I will ask someone to open the wall in the middle and put the two houses into four courtyards, which will make it spacious to live."

Two days ago, Xie Tao and several boys of Xie Zheng's family had a fight. Song Wei heard about the fact that Xie Tao's family was pushed down and knocked down and broke his head. However, because of the busy official business, he had no time to ask in detail. Now, after hearing what Aunt Xie said, I am afraid that the two houses have become quarrel, otherwise their family would not be in a hurry to buy a house.

Mrs. Song heard some meaning and asked directly: "What's wrong? Xie Tao's wife still refused to give up?"

All the words were already spread out, and Aunt Xie had nothing to say. She sighed, "My second daughter-in-law was originally a strong-minded person. She was suppressed by me before, and she was still calm. This time, she was hurt by her kid, but she didn't step on her tail directly. Since the day of the accident, she has been yelling to separate the family. Old Xie and I have not been buried yet. Can she let her separate? These days they are making trouble, and I can't persuade them, so I can only think behind my back, thinking about waiting for your family to move out and opening it up. At most, let them live in a yard in one yard in the future. It is impossible to separate the family. As long as I have a breath, I will never agree to their brothers' division."

Nowadays, filial piety is emphasized, and there is a saying that "the parents are there, and there is no family."

However, not everyone follows this unwritten statement. Sometimes brothers are having trouble and cannot survive together, and there are many people who force their families to separate.

The Song Erlang family back then was an example.

But in the eyes of Aunt Xie, the Xie family finally reached this point with Xie Zheng. No matter what conflicts there are between the two rooms, the Xingwang family should be the priority. The second daughter-in-law thought it would be great to watch a stall to make two small money. She just had no eyesight to see Xie Zheng's bright future. If she really wanted to separate her, when Xie Zheng made a fortune in the future, the Xie Tao family would definitely follow the old path of Song Erlang's family. By then, even if the second room was shameless and leaned forward, would the people in the Renmin University House be happy to let you rely on it?

Mrs. Song glanced at Aunt Xie, "Have you discussed this with the two brothers Xie Zheng and Xie Tao?"

"Not yet." Aunt Xie said: "Xie Tao's wife is angry. She can't listen to anything I say now. It's better to come and have some practical things. I use the money from the public housing market to buy the yard. At that time, there is one for their yard. Even if she is reluctant, she will have to stay there."

Mrs. Song shook her head and said, "It's wrong for you to force people to stay like this. Maybe you will force people to do something in a hurry. You should say hello to them in advance. If you make it clear, Xie Tao's wife still insists on splitting up the family. Don't be embarrassed. Let them separate them and live a better and ugly life in the future. That's their own choice, and you can't blame others."

Aunt Xie frowned, "I'm afraid, Xie Tao's family will be the same as Erlang and the others in the future."

When she mentioned the second son, Mrs. Song was so angry that she felt like she was lit. "There was a living example of the Erlang family. Xie Tao and his wife pretended not to see it. What else can you do to swing a stick and beat the person up?"

Seeing her angry look, Aunt Xie suddenly laughed, "Second sister-in-law reminded me, then I will talk to them when I go back. If I say I have to split up my family, don't blame me, the old woman, for squeezing the stick."

After Aunt Xie left, Wenwan sent the grass carp she bought on the way home to the kitchen.

Jinbao followed her with his short legs, staring at the fish on the chopping board. Seeing that Mother Jin had not started moving, he pointed.

Although I didn't say anything, it was not difficult to see that the little guy was urging me to eat fish.

Seeing this, Jin's mother was a little funny and asked him to wait a little longer and start doing it immediately.

Wen Wan was about to take her into the room to eat some snacks to cushion her belly, but unexpectedly, the little guy's legs seemed to be fixed in the kitchen, blinking his eyes, staring at the fish and not letting go.

Wenwan had no choice but to roll up her sleeves and help Jin's mother do it together.

The fish porridge was cooked and Wenwan served it in a small bowl. Before she could blow it cold, the little guy had already snatched the spoon from her and planned to eat it by himself.

Wenwan said: "The fish are hot, so you must be hot."

As he said that, he made a mouth shaped to blow things cold to him.

Jinbao scooped half a spoonful of fish porridge and put it beside his mouth. He huh, he huh, which came out with saliva.

Wen Wan was really out of sight, so she took another spoon, blew half a spoon to send it over, and Jinbao pursed his lips and ate it with his mother's hand.

Wenwan asked him, "Is the fish delicious?"

The little guy sucked it twice, and opened his mouth with a "ah" instead of answering.

Jinbao, a two-year-old, had a much larger appetite than before. He ate all of a bowl of fish porridge. Finally, he touched his round belly and shook his head to say he didn't want it anymore.

Wenwan put the bowl on the stove and pulled it into the treasure to the east wing.

Song Wei had already returned to the room at some point. He had just changed his clothes. When he turned out from behind the screen, he saw Wen Wan pulling Jinbao. He smiled softly, "Are Jinbao full?"

Jin Bao didn't say anything and burped at the father-in-law.

Song Wei picked him up and sat on the chair. He was intimate with his son for a while before looking at Wen Wan who was looking for clothes to change, and whispered: "Xie Zheng has something wrong with this period."

Wen Wan paused her hand holding the clothes and turned to look at the man, "Isn't it just that their two rooms are unhappy about the children?"

"Not this." Song Wei said: "They Shujishi went to the yamen every day, but I heard from my aunt that Xie Zheng did not go home immediately after he went to the yamen, but went back very late. Where did he go?"

Wen Wan hesitated: "Maybe, it was my colleagues who invited me to drink or something."

"I would rather be like that." Song Wei said: "I'm afraid that Xie Zheng couldn't figure it out for a moment because of the pressure from his family."
