Chapter 114: Dedicated to Father
Xin Wenyuan had arranged for Gu Shuang, and was just about to hold her and treat her tenderly, when he heard a message from his servants that Xin Nianyan had gone to Jingxinyuan.
His heart skipped a beat, and his face was full of anger: "This stinky girl, I really thought she was a sensible person, and she went to the old lady to complain quietly. I have to deal with her today!"
Gu Shuang held his arm, and gently patted his chest with her soft and boneless fingers to comfort him: "Master, please don't be angry. I think the eldest lady seems to be a sensible governor. You can't hide the fact that you brought me back from the old lady."
, why not go and see it and take this opportunity to explain it clearly."
After hearing this, Xin Wenyuan felt that this was indeed the case. He held the gentle woman in his arms and patted her.
"Just wait, I'll be right back."
Seeing the gentle, kind and considerate Gu Shuang, Xin Wenyuan's anger dissipated.
Gu Shuang seemed to be able to evacuate all his unhappiness, and he felt very comfortable as long as he was by her side.
After appeasing Gu Shuang, Xin Wenyuan went directly to Jingxinyuan.
When he arrived, Xin Nianyan was making the old lady laugh at the dinner table, and the atmosphere was harmonious and warm.
"I have met the master." The maid waiting outside bowed.
The two people talking stopped and looked at the door.
Xin Nianyan stood up consciously and saluted: "Father."
When Xin Wenyuan saw the atmosphere, his thoughts, which had been dubious due to Gu Shuang's persuasion, were immediately settled.
He indeed misunderstood Yan'er.
"Why do you want to see your mother today?" The old lady smiled and waved to him: "Have you had dinner? Come, let's have something together."
Xin Wenyuan nodded, took his seat, and looked at Xin Nianyan again.
"Why are you here too?"
He originally wanted to ask Xin Nianyan if he was here to have dinner with the old lady, but his tone changed as soon as he spoke. After all, he rarely gave Xin Nianyan a good look.
Xin Nianyan didn't care, and responded calmly: "Father, Yan'er misses her grandmother, so she came over to see her."
The old lady patted Xin Wenyuan, who was sitting down, and said, "What are you doing with such a straight face? You are so busy that you don't even go home on weekdays. You have an intimate person to accompany you, this old lady, do you have any objections?"
As soon as the old lady took action, Xin Wenyuan was naturally at a loss. He laughed repeatedly. "No, it's a good thing that she has such filial piety."
When the three of them ate at the same table, Xin Nianyan no longer said interesting things to cheer up the old lady like before, and the atmosphere became much cooler.
After eating, Xin Nianyan helped the old lady sit down, and she called Xin Wenyuan over.
"I don't go to the Three Treasures Hall if I have anything to do. If you have anything to do, just say it."
While eating just now, Xin Wenyuan hesitated to speak several times.
Zhizi Mo Ruomu, my son came to see him today, he must have something to say.
Xin Wenyuan coughed lowly and looked at Xin Nianyan pointedly.
"We are all a family. Don't always smoke outside. Is there anything she can't listen to?" The old lady pulled Xin Nianyan and frowned at him.
Xin Nianyan is much more lovable than Xin Rou'er, and she likes this child more and more. After all, she is her granddaughter, so naturally she doesn't want to see her son separated from her.
Xin Nianyan brought someone else to bring tea and placed it in front of the old lady: "If father wants to mention what happened just now, father can rest assured that Yan'er has already said it and he has no objection."
"What happened just now?" The old lady frowned in confusion.
She was the only one who was kept in the dark?
Xin Nianyan was just thinking about how to mention it, but she saw Xin Wenyuan over there couldn't hold back his anger: "Mother, I want to take a concubine."
The old lady was stunned for a moment, somewhat shocked: "Why do you suddenly want to take a concubine?"
After all, I haven’t taken a concubine for more than ten years, so why suddenly...
"The child has met the woman he knows and is pitiful. He wants to take her with him."
Xin Wenyuan was a little worried. If she didn't agree, this matter would really not be easy to handle.
Naturally, he was unwilling to send the person away, but Shuang'er's life in the mansion was not going to be easy.
The old lady glanced at him and said, "You said the same thing when you brought Mrs. Zhang back."
"Mom, I really like Shuang'er, please help us!" Xin Wenyuan was already a little panicked.
If Xin Nianyan had already told her that the old lady had a bad attitude when he came here, he would naturally be able to stand firm and not back down. But now, he is completely passive.
If the old lady really disagrees, she will be so angry with him.
How could he bear this?
"Grandma, Yan'er has something to say, I don't know whether to say it or not." Xin Nianyan spoke at the right time.
"Say." The old lady looked at Xin Nianyan.
"Yan'er thinks that my father is an official in the court and works for the country and the people every day. It is really hard to buy this home for us. If there is a woman who looks comfortable, it would not be a bad idea to bring her into the house."
"If you have many caring people around you who know how to take care of you, the house will be more lively."
Xin Nianyan opened her mouth, and the words she spoke made everyone present feel heart-warming.
"Dad is the prime minister. He is a high-ranking official in the dynasty. It's just a concubine. It's not a big deal." After saying that, he added another sentence.
With this attitude, she didn't mean to help anyone at all, she just looked at the matter from a fair and just perspective.
"That's right, I am a first-class prime minister, what's the big deal about marrying a concubine?" Xin Wenyuan frowned, feeling that what Xin Nianyan said was very reasonable.
The reason why he thought this matter was such a big deal was entirely because Zhang Yunhui's reaction was too intense.
It was as if he had really done something wrong.
Of all the civil and military dynasties, which family didn’t have several concubines?
Why can't you come to him?
"Okay, okay, I didn't say I wouldn't let you marry me." The old lady waved her hand.
"So, mother, you agreed?" Xin Wenyuan looked happy.
"Please find a time first and bring him here for me to see." The old lady didn't like his anxious look.
"I've brought the person back. Mother can see it now if she wants!" Xin Wenyuan said excitedly.
Xin Nianyan raised her forehead helplessly. Is this person really her biological father?
"Father, it's already getting late. Let grandma rest first. It won't be too late to bring her to grandma after the new aunt is settled." She reminded her softly.
Xin Wenyuan was not really stupid, he nodded immediately: "Okay, mother, you have a good rest, and the child will not disturb you!"
He wanted to tell Shuang'er the good news quickly!
"Go, go." The old lady waved her hand and let him go.
After he left, he looked at Xin Nianyan: "Yan'er, do you really not care about your father taking concubines?"
"Grandma, everything Yan'er said just now is true."
"Good boy." The old lady happily took her hand and patted it.
She also dislikes the Zhang family, so what if she accepts another one? If he is really a sensible person, his son will also be considered blessed.
