Chapter two hundred and sixty insatiable greed
"mother."
Mingxiu came to the front and saw that in addition to her mother and Xie Zhan, there were also a few uninvited guests.
There was doubt in her eyes, which fell on Xie Zhan.
His expression was extremely ugly. If it weren't for the fact that this place belonged to the Ming family, he would have driven out these unruly people from his palace long ago.
The visitors were none other than the elder Li family, the younger Li family, and Miao Zhuang.
Seeing Mingxiu, Xiao Li hurriedly stepped forward to hold her arm.
"Girl Xiu'er has become more and more beautiful since she got married. She is indeed the royal family's supporter."
Before she stepped forward, Mingxiu turned sideways without leaving any trace, avoiding Mrs. Li's touch.
Little Li was a little embarrassed and looked at her husband and mother-in-law at a loss.
"Sister-in-law was joking, but we haven't seen each other for a few days and she said nothing."
Without approaching them, Mingxiu went straight to Ming's mother and asked, "I wonder what you mean by coming here?"
Ming's mother whispered something into her ear, and Mingxiu's face suddenly turned ugly.
She walked to Xie Zhan, and together with him, she looked at the three people standing with burning eyes.
Xie Zhan shook her hand and said with a smile: "Why are you just standing? Sit down."
Although this is the Ming family, Xie Zhan's words are much easier than those of Ming's father and Ming's mother.
His attitude was so kind that the elder Li family breathed a sigh of relief. Without even looking at Ming's mother, they sat down and said to Xie Zhan in a flattering manner:
"Your Majesty, we are very grateful for your consideration. Now that the Ming family is living so well, can you help some of your relatives?"
These words were too direct. After all, Xiao Li was young, and she felt a little uneasy, so she gently pulled her mother-in-law.
But Mrs. Li ignored her intention.
Xie Zhan raised his eyebrows noncommittally, and Ming's mother was full of worry. This was the first time that the young couple came back to the house, and Mrs. Li came to the house to make such a fuss, which would inevitably make Xie Zhan feel unhappy with Mingxiu.
If these irrelevant people affect Mingxiu's life, then the gain outweighs the loss.
But Xie Zhan didn't seem to have any doubts. He raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Then what kind of support do you want?"
He didn't want to argue with a woman named Li, and his eyes fell directly on Miao Zhuang.
You don't need to think about it to know that Mr. Li came here this time for Miao Zhuang.
But despite his age, he was still hiding behind his mother. Seeing Xie Zhan look at her, Miao Zhuang actually avoided her.
Such things are not uncommon for Xie Zhan.
He occupies a high position, let alone Miao Zhuang, a peasant with little experience, and even the old foxes in the court who have been involved in officialdom for many years, few can stop him.
But in the final analysis, those people have nothing to do with Xie Zhan.
And Miao Zhuang's behavior really made Xie Zhan look down on him.
Xie Zhan was ready to relent. Mrs. Li's eyes lit up. No matter how ugly Mingxiu's face was, she pulled her son beside her to stand up.
"Your Highness, you see, my son is not young yet, but he still doesn't have a serious job. I secretly think that this matter could not be easier for Your Majesty. If you can arrange a job for him, our whole family will be happy."
Grateful."
With Xie Zhan speaking in person, the job that can be arranged will definitely be much better than the last time Mingxiu casually asked him to be a spy.
With the prince's support in the future, Miao Zhuang will definitely have a bright future.
Little Li also looked at Xie Zhan expectantly.
She couldn't care less about being shameless at this time.
Nothing is more important than having a good life at home, right?
Ming's mother slapped the table hard, "You guys are really trying to get things done. Do you still want my family to take care of your son for the rest of his life?"
Mrs. Li, who was full of expectations, was startled. Her eyes fell on Xie Zhan, and she muttered secretly: "My daughter gave birth to your eldest grandson. What's the big deal in helping my son?"
." It's a small matter to them anyway, isn't it?
Whether it's Mingxiu or Xie Zhan, just one sentence can make Miao Zhuang enjoy it endlessly.
It will not have any impact on their lives.
Mrs. Li believes that this is mutual help between relatives.
"Do you really think my family cares about your girl?" Ming's mother was really angry this time. She could forgive her for sucking her blood no matter what, and it was not impossible for her to swallow her anger for Ye Ziming.
But if it affects Mingxiu even half a point, then it’s absolutely not allowed!
People are close and distant.
It is true that she loves Ye Ziming, but Mingxiu is more important.
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Li immediately became unhappy, "Even if my girl is not good, she still gives birth to a big fat grandson for you. Since you don't want to see her so much, then I will take my daughter and grandson back!"
As he said this, he sat aside and glanced at Ming's mother from the corner of his eye, obviously waiting for her to give in.
In fact, Mrs. Li's thoughts cannot be said to be wrong. This is how people in the countryside are. Even if the mother-in-law doesn't like her daughter-in-law, she won't be able to part with her grandson.
This attitude really frightened Ming's mother. She was startled and looked at Mingxiu at a loss, not knowing what to choose.
Mingxiu sighed in distress, Mrs. Li was so greedy that she even talked to this point. If she didn't get some benefits, Xiaobao might really be taken away.
She can be said to be rude but not rude. Although Miao Manman is not lovable, Xiaobao is still very good.
After glancing at Xie Zhan, Mingxiu considered how to keep Xiaobao without letting anyone get too proud.
I had known that Mingxiu's family had relatives who were not very good, but when they met this time, it was as if the news had arrived.
Xie Zhan was not someone who would be constrained by a country woman, so what if she was the daughter-in-law of the village chief?
If Mingxiu is in trouble, just deal with it directly and keep it so that she can't make any trouble.
But Xie Zhan is very good at handling Mingxiu. If she knew how to deal with it, she would definitely not agree to it.
Xie Zhan had another plan in mind.
There was silence in the room for a moment.
On the face of it, the big Li family has every advantage.
Miao Zhuang and Xiao Li immediately lost their urgency.
They were sure that Ming's mother would relent for Xiaobao and ask Mingxiu and Xie Zhan to arrange a good place for Miao Zhuang.
And secretly decided in his heart that it must be better, better, even if Miao Zhuang can get a small official position with Xie Zhan's escort.
Then they are also officials.
"Since Mrs. Miao said so, let's take Miao Manman and her daughter away."
Ye Ziming came in full of anger. He heard Mrs. Li's words as early as the door. He didn't rush in immediately because he wanted to see how his family would deal with it.
It was understandable for him to sacrifice him for Mingxiu, but he would feel a little uncomfortable.
But no one answered, obviously they didn't want to let go of Xiaobao.
