My Ferocious Tigress Wife

Chapter 383: Chapter 383 Can’t Refuse

Translator: 549690339

Xie Wan expressed that she was tired. She was really not interested in listening to her brother spoiling her sister-in-law. Was he trying to tell her that she would never be able to live a happy life?

Putting aside the fact that she had only seen her brother pamper his sister-in-law to such an extent, it was rare to meet him. With the men around her, the elders and juniors were of the same generation. None of them would be together for the rest of their lives. Moreover, there were too many family interests involved.

Actually, she didn’t take Zhuge Zhu’s marriage contract back because she valued his character.

However, she was not sure how much a person’s character was worth.

After all, there were many good people, but if they lived together, there was no guarantee that the husband and wife would be beautiful. Being nice didn’t mean being a good couple. This chapter is updated by ɴovelFɪre.net

Moreover, she could see clearly that once the marriage contract was torn up, the engagement would be gone. Then, they would have to find a replacement for her. With Xie Shan as a warning, the Xie family would not let the two young ladies rot at home.

Even if there was no Zhuge Shu, there would still be Zhang, Wang, Li, and Zhao Shu.

Although Mrs. Yuan was aware of her daughter’s little schemes, she did not interfere too much. The mother and son’s views on marriage were quite consistent, but Madam Yuan met Xie Shizhong and was subdued by him. But in the end, Xie Shiling ‘walked away’ and left her alone in despair.

As the saying goes, deep love does not last long. Although she was alive, she lived without interest.

Therefore, it could not be said that Xie Wan’s thoughts were wrong. At least, she should not have unrealistic fantasies about marriage. Was that good?

Mrs. Yuan herself was still in the process of her own theory of logic and had yet to come to a conclusion. Thus, she had no way of persuading her and could only wait and see. It was just to prepare more dowry for Xie Wan so that she could live a worry-free life without relying on her in-laws.

The Zhuge family, the only family that was criticized, disappeared from Jiankang overnight. Madam Yuan was worried for two days.

Fortunately, his son was a reliable person. He found Madam Yuan and told her the truth. Xie Xian knew very well what a mother was like. He would definitely not spread the gossip…

With Lady Yuan’s current social circle, it was estimated that the news would only reach the ears of Buddha and Bodhisattva.

Having taken the reassurance pill, Madam Yuan was no longer secretly anxious and began to recite Buddhist scriptures.

Xie Wan was at ease.

Outside of Jiankang, the flames of war were raging. Within Jiankang, especially in the Imperial Palace, there was no peace. Battle reports came from all over the country. Although there was a lot of good news overall, it was inevitable that the court was busy. Xie Xian was the Minister of State and the Prime Minister, so he naturally had more work to do. He left early and returned late every day. If it wasn’t for Xiao Baoxin sleeping late, it would have been difficult for the couple to meet.

However, it was fortunate that Emperor Yong Ping kept an eye on Xie Xian even more closely than Xiao Baoxin. His illness had recovered, and he had to drink soup and water every day. He drank at home late at night and had to go to the palace to drink again.

In the end, even the Emperor’s trusted aide, Little Eunuch Duo Fu, advised the Emperor not to let Xie Xian drink anymore.

They knew this because they had a good relationship. Xie Xian was in good health, and the Emperor was confident that he could protect the pillars of Dahang. Those who didn’t know better would think that their Minister Pushe had a big heart. The outside world was already broken, and the court was on tenterhooks. Only he had a red face every day, and his heart was bigger than a melon. At best, the situation on the battlefield could be seen from the Minister Pushe’s face. At worst, it was that he didn’t have a backbone in his heart and didn’t care about the affairs of the country at all. Looking at his small red face, he didn’t look like someone who was worried about the affairs of the country.

The rumors in the marketplace, the many unspeakable things about the Emperor and Xie Xian, Duo Fu had heard of them, but he didn’t dare to mention them to the Emperor. He, a loyal official of his generation, could only do so much.

However, Emperor Yong Ping did not appreciate it. He did not care what others said. In fact, he had never heard of it before. It was lonely at the top, and no one would carelessly spread idle gossip to the Emperor, especially when this was a scandal between the Emperor himself and Xie Xian. Do you think you can live a long life?

As usual, he was still giving Xie Xian soup and water. He was afraid that Xie Xian might not even live past Xie Shizhong’s age and suddenly die, catching him off guard.

Even if there was an illness or a disaster, he was still afraid of delaying his official business. It was a troubled time.

Since the Emperor was kind, it was not convenient for Xie Xian to decline again and again.Jn fact, he had already declined many times, but Emperor Yong Ping was still able to send him soup in a fancy way. He even personally controlled the scene and dragged the other ministers into the water to drink together.

Xie Xian couldn’t possibly refuse, right?

Deeply in the emperor’s grace, Xie Xian was deeply afraid.

The various types of soup that Emperor Yong Ping had drunk over the years were not as varied as after he ascended the throne.

Then, his height actually increased by two inches!

Where was he going to reason with her?

Xie Xian thought,[I suspect that I helped a fake emperor and a real chef ascend the throne!]

Chinese cuisine was vast and profound. The emperor loved to maintain his health, and the Imperial Kitchen and the Imperial Academy of Medicine worked together to develop more than a dozen types of soups that could nourish the body and strengthen the body. They had made a huge contribution to the food culture of our Great China.

Xiao Baoxin looked at the fair and tender Xie Xian every day with mixed feelings. She seemed to be inferior to Emperor Yong Ping. It was her who did not care enough for Xie Xian.

She was already four months pregnant and her pregnancy was already very stable. She began to walk circles with Xie Xian for an hour every day.

Even if Xie Xian wanted to digest the food he ate and drank in the Emperor’s palace every day, he was willing to do so, let alone go with Xiao Baoxin. Even if he was tired to the point of being a dog, he was willing to do so.

Thus, the Emperor and Xiao Baoxin worked together and actually raised Xie Xian’s body to be even stronger than the average person.

Lady Yuan was jealous. What? Did she and Servant Xie not raise him well back then?

She silently complained to her mother-in-law. At that time, she really treated him as a delicate baby. It wasn’t that she didn’t raise him well. Xie Xian was very picky and didn’t like to move. They were also afraid that he would tire himself out after seeing that he was not born well, which resulted in Xie Xian becoming a ‘sickly girl’ all these years.

It was Mother Xie who spoke the truth. She didn’t blame Madam Yuan at all.

It was Xie Xian’s family who had a wife now, not to mention a son. If they were alive, they would have a goal. They did not even dare to die.

Xiao Baoxin contributed the most. He had a three-pronged approach of nourishing food, walking circles, and having love.

They really couldn’t be blamed.

Of course, this was what Madam Yuan and Mother Xie said in private.

Xiao Baoxin knew what Xie Wan was thinking and took it seriously. When they were walking in circles at night, he said a few words to Xie Xian.

Xie Xian was magnanimous.” Seventh Madame has her own ideas, so it’s not necessarily bad. We can’t let her suffer any losses. With you thinking so much for her, it can’t be wrong.”

The main reason was that the Xie family had big ideas. They might not listen to what they said, and they might not do what they thought.

Xie Wan was his biological sister.. How could he not understand her?
