Chapter 32 Why does it have nothing to do with me?

"From now on, you will be like your mother, staying in the back house, caring for your husband and raising your children." Father Shen said dejectedly.

"What if I don't? What if I just want to be a manly man and go into battle to kill the enemy?!" Xie Yuan asked in a child's clear voice.

Xie Yuan's stubborn eyes that refused to admit defeat hurt Father Shen's heart. Father Shen finally looked at her and said, "Then you will have to endure a lot of hardships, and the world will not tolerate it. Can you make it?"

Xie Yuan suddenly cried, tears falling down, and he raised his face and said:

"Master... I'm not afraid of hardship, I'm just afraid that others will regard me as a waste. I'm not a waste, I can do anything."

As she spoke, she raised her hand to wipe away the tears on her face, her eyes full of prayer.

Pray that others will value her and not ignore her...

…

…

Xie Yuan stood next to her mother, Mrs. Xie, and looked at the usually talkative maid kneeling on the ground, crying with gratitude:

"Thank you, Madam, for your love. I know the pain in Madam's heart. If I am lucky enough to have a son and a half of the Xie family in my belly, they will naturally still be Madam's children. If I call Madam my mother, I will be Madam's for the rest of my life." My servant will serve you with all your heart no matter the time."

As he spoke, he kowtowed to Mrs. Xie solemnly several times, with blurred tears on his face and a red forehead.

But she didn't feel miserable at all. Xie Yuan could feel lucky from her "miserable" state, the kind of lucky that she finally got through her life.

Mrs. Xie had a haggard face, her face was pale, and her lips without makeup looked even more pale and lifeless.

Her sitting posture was still luxurious, just like the noble person in the picture of living clothes, but she looked fragile and lost her mind. She slightly raised her lips and said:

"Go." The tone was calm, the voice was low, and there were no other words.

The maid timidly raised her eyes to look at Mrs. Xie, then turned around obediently.

After the people left, there was no one else in the room. Mrs. Xie, who was sitting, tilted her head slightly and leaned on the shoulder of Xie Yuan, who was standing next to her.

Xie Yuan used to be clinging to her side, but now it was like his mother was relying on her, which made Xie Yuan feel a strange emotion in his heart.

While I was frightened and saddened by my mother's fragility, I also felt that I had grown up and needed to be more reliable, so I tried to stand firm and asked:

"Mom, what's wrong with you?"

Mrs. Xie straightened up, looked at her and said, "Mom is fine."

But even though he said it was okay, his tears flowed out like a broken river. Silently, but he cried so urgently.

"Mom..." Xie Yuan called her in panic and was helpless to wipe the tears on Mrs. Xie's face.

Mrs. Xie burst into tears and smiled, stretched out her hand to touch her face, and said: "...our Ayuan is so good. He has a tall and straight figure, and his ambition and temperament are not inferior to those of men..."

As she talked, the smile on her face could no longer be squeezed out, and she cried bitterly: "...But why did God choose to make you a girl?"

…

…

Xie Yuan didn't understand. She didn't feel there was anything pitiful about herself, nor did she feel any worse than others, but her mother was sad because she was not a man, which made her sad.

I am very unwilling... What kind of terrible things are embedded in the minds of these adults? They insist on looking down on her because she has caused so many troubles.

Xie Yuan, who ran like crazy all the way, finally found his father Xie Yun in the Xie family's library.

At that time, her father was standing in front of the bookshelf, covering a repaired bamboo slip with a cloth suit, while Shen Liuzhen was on the table beside him, holding a pen and copying ancient books stroke by stroke.

The ancient book was made of silk and had already become brittle and yellowed. It was something her father usually treasured so much that she never dared to touch it.

"A Yuan...why did you come here?" Father Xie glanced at her and asked very normally.

Xie Yuan put his hand on the hilt of the sword at his waist. Danfeng glanced at Shen Liuzhen who was laughing playfully at her, then took it back expressionlessly and asked:

"Dad...why do you want to take a concubine? If you take a concubine, my mother will not be happy."

When Father Xie heard this, he was about to put down his bamboo slip. He froze there for a long time, then put it down gently and said:

"If dad doesn't take a concubine, your mother won't be happy either. There's nothing you can do about it."

Father Xie turned around, glanced at her again, walked towards the table next to Shen Liuzhen, and sighed helplessly and said:

"Children, don't worry about adults' affairs. These have nothing to do with you."

Xie Yuanqi looked at his father lifting up the sleeves of his Confucian shirt and sitting down. He said coldly: "...How come it has nothing to do with me? Dad, I am also a member of the Xie family, and I can also carry on the family lineage for the Xie family. .”

Father Xie raised his eyes and glanced at her, thinking: This silly girl really doesn't know what is wrong with her. How come she can't understand it even after explaining it to her so many times?

"How can it be the same? You will get married in the future. And the sons of the Xie family will marry a wife. After marrying a wife, the child born will be named Xie. Do you understand?" Xie's father patiently explained to her. .

Xie Yuan frowned, his thick black eyebrows knotted, and said angrily: "... Then I can marry a wife in the future, and the children I give birth to can also be named Xie!"

Father Xie almost spit out a mouthful of tea. He put down the tea cup and brushed his clothes twice. He looked at his silly girl with a wry smile and was speechless for a long time.

He turned his head and glanced at his young son-in-law Shen Liuzhen, feeling guilty for a moment. In the end he could only wave at Xie Yuanyi and said impatiently: "Hurry up! I can't tell you clearly."

Xie Yuan stood for a while and thought, if his father couldn't explain anything and he couldn't make sense, it meant that she was right, but his father didn't want to accept it, so he left.

"A Yuan..." Shen Liuzhen called her.

Xie Yuan stood on the arch bridge, turned half sideways and looked at him indifferently.

Shen Liuzhen was frightened by Xie Yuan's heartless expression. He walked over quickly and cautiously, looked into her eyes and asked: "A Yuan...are you angry with me? Why?"

Xie Yuan just stared at him with a pair of red phoenix eyes and said nothing.

Shen Liuzhen was a little panicked, and then said: "...You and the teacher can't be blamed for being angry with me. I didn't offend you."

Xie Yuan looked away for a while, turned around and walked away, saying: "You should stay away from me from now on. I will get angry when I see a pretentious person like you!"

Shen Liuzhen was choked and staggered... He admitted that he was often very artificial, but recently he had not harmed Xie Yuan. How could he be so wronged?

"I haven't done much lately..."

"You pretend to be obedient every day to please my father, but now my father doesn't even bother to hit me. He just says a few words and gets annoyed by me. Isn't it because of you?!"

Shen Liuzhen was stunned for a moment, watching Xie Yuan walk away...
