My Ferocious Tigress Wife

Chapter 948: An Arm Can’t Whip a Leg

It wasn’t that the Lu family hadn’t thought of increasing their relationship by marriage. After all, the Lu family had many sons. Back then, no one had thought that Xiao Baoxin would only have two daughters in his life. It didn’t matter who he married. If the two daughters married into the same family, they would still be able to take care of each other.

He had thought it through.

In the end, Madam Zu had only briefly mentioned Mother Jin’s marriage-Mother Cheng was the eldest, so naturally, she would be the first to get married.

He didn’t even say a second sentence. The Lu family had the intention to add another marriage, but Xiao Baoxin blocked him.

Cheng Niang was in charge of her decision, which had already angered Xie Xian. Xie Xian had already let out word that Jin Niang’s marriage was to be chosen by herself and slowly chosen.

If they listened to their words, the Zu family would no longer rush to ask for trouble.

Did he still need to bypass Xiao Baoxin and look for Xie Xian? This was too insensible, so he let go of his heart.

She did not expect Xiao Baoxin to really not have any ‘hidden meanings’. He was just talking casually. Because the Zu family was still alright, they didn’t have the habit of touching their waists and arms at every turn. Xiao Baoxin simply couldn’t get the Zu family’s bent heart.

In the words of the Zu family, Lady Xiao’s stomach was straight. She took it as a compliment, but Xiao Baoxin actually treated it as reality.

Of course, even if the Zu Clan had mentioned it, Xiao Baoxin would probably have rejected it.

Whether it was the Lu family or the Xi family, it was enough to get married. Of course, they were all good families, but they couldn’t put all their eggs in one basket.

If they really got together and ended up fighting in their own nest, or if the in-laws were not on good terms, who would they help?

Xiao Baoxin immediately rolled it up for Chu Lingzi without any hesitation.

“You should quickly rest. Xuan Hui said that he would personally take care of Jin Niang’s marriage, so it’s my duty to interfere.”

Chu Lingzi didn’t have the same awareness as the Zu family.”Then I’ll let my Silang talk to my cousin.”

Xiao Baoxin,”Your Jing Lang is one year younger than Jin Niang!”

In any case, Xie Xian would not agree to it. She refused repeatedly in front of so many people. She was straightforward and not stupid. She was eager to find trouble for her good friend.

“Then I won’t bother with the matter.” Xiao Baoxin was happy and relaxed.

Chu Lingzi was happy and was not affected at all. She smacked her lips and regretfully swept her gaze across Xie Wan’s stomach. Unfortunately, Doctor Xue had diagnosed that it was a young man. Otherwise, she would have made the first move. She also knew that she couldn’t just hang herself on a tree with Lady Xiao. Now that Xie Xian was like the sun in the sky, wouldn’t those who coveted her little son and little lady be thrown from Jiankang to Xiapi?

Regardless of whether Xie Xian was considering it from the clan or from his personal point of view, he probably did not want to tie the child’s marriage to his family.

But… Who asked Eldest Lady Xiao and Cousin Xie to be so beautiful? The children they gave birth to were of excellent quality and beauty. At such a young age, whether it was talent or temperament, they looked top-notch?

Even if he was rejected, he had to try, right?

What if he saw her as a noble person with a simple family background?

“You’re good. The rare gathering has become a blind date for you?”Xie Wan rolled her eyes at Chu Lingzi. Ever since she gave birth to the child, she had been thinking about getting engaged. Did she have to worry so much?

Although she said that she despised Xi Sanlang’s ugly appearance, the two of them were actually very close. She treated the two children like the apple of her eye. She worried about their food and clothing every day. Her maternal instincts were overflowing. She could go crazy and play. When she went to her place, she also coaxed her Fu Ji to love Aunt Chu the most.

Zu shi smiled.” We’re mothers now. Other than worrying about our husbands, we’re only children.” Especially my children.”

“Yes.”

Everyone chatted and laughed as time passed.

They didn’t have anything important to do, so they gathered together to get to know each other and pass the time.

With everyone gathered, it was inevitable that some gossip would not be convenient to talk about. They were all relatives from various prefectures and families. For example, Consort Chu had been slapped by the Princess of South County. She was so depressed that she almost lost her life. Third Master Chu’s heart ached for his daughter and caused a ruckus in the princess’s room. Chu Yan was slapped a few times by Third Master Chu when he was protecting his wife. In the end, the old nanny who the princess had ordered to bring out of the palace slapped Third Master Chu more than thirty times. The two families were in a heated argument. Even the concubine that Third Master Chu held in his hands was beaten up so badly that she was about to die. She was almost skinned and she was gossiping about the princess everywhere…

The second branch of the Chu family was biased towards the third branch, but the Princess of South County did not listen to that.’Your family is bullying others. Fine, let’s split up.’

In the end, when the matter reached the Empress Xiao, she naturally sided with the South County Princess.

Whether it was Chu Yan’s meritorious deeds or the Princess of South County slapping Noble Consort Chu-now she should be called the Imperial Consort-Empress Dowager Xiao was extremely satisfied with those slaps. Naturally, Empress Dowager Xiao had to support the Princess of South County and her husband. In front of all the other women, she knocked on the wife of the second branch of the family, Lady Yuan.

Chu Yuanshi blushed and returned to her residence.

These were the Chu family’s scandals, so they naturally couldn’t say it in front of Chu Lingzi. However, when the Zu family heard about it, they felt uncomfortable not saying anything, so after Chu Lingzi left, they secretly told Xiao Baoxin.

She was also Xie Xian’s aunt.

“.. I heard that Consort Chu has been restless in the palace recently. She’s making a fuss about giving the Fifth Prince a fief and making him a king. She’s desperately following the Fifth Prince to the fief.”

Xie Wan said,”She’s thinking too much. It’s just peaceful. The emperor has just ascended the throne. How can he immediately let the other princes give away their fiefs?””

Especially since the Chu family was different from ordinary commoners. They were an aristocratic family with a hundred years of history and had someone to rely on.

Kangding emperor is only five years old, whether it is Xiao empress dowager, or his own brother, the brain is filled with water water, will let the thief heart not die, so big threat far out. Was he afraid that the world would be too peaceful?

” I’ve heard about this from the Twelfth Aunt.” The Twelfth Aunt Wang was still Empress Dowager Xiao’s favorite. She was supposed to be invited today, but she was summoned into the palace by Empress Dowager Xiao, so she gave up.

“The Empress Dowager originally wanted the Chu family to make their stance clear and stand firm, but in the end, the Chu family caused a ruckus. Consort Dowager saw the signs and caused a ruckus again.”

“Chu Jiuniang is still so restless.”Xie Wan sneered.

In the past, she did not stop and hooked up with Emperor Yong Ping to enter the palace. Emperor Yong Ping was mesmerized by all his methods, but in the end… He didn’t get any benefits, nor did he get the position of Crown Prince, and his mentality collapsed.

Xiao Baoxin chuckled. Chu Jiuniang also knew that she would not have a good ending even if she did not make a scene. She could not openly fall out with Empress Dowager Xiao. Empress Dowager Xiao did not dare to kill her even if she wanted to. After all, she had the Chu family backing her, and the Chu family had even supported the new emperor. They had caught hold of Empress Dowager Xiao’s weakness.

Empress Dowager Xiao had seen through it, but she couldn’t break this situation. That was why she put pressure on the Chu family and tried to force them to stand on the same side.

“An arm can’t win against a thigh.” she said. She meant that Empress Dowager Xiao had a high position and naturally occupied the moral high ground.

However, when Zu Shi and the others heard this, they couldn’t help but nod their heads, thinking that this big and thick leg was Xie Xian.

After all, Xie Xian was the one who had truly contributed.
