After Jiaojiao got pregnant, her husband who died in the war came back
Chapter 25 Ancient Foreclosure House
After the old man finished speaking, the others followed suit: "Swear to be loyal to General Meng until death!"
Seeing this situation, Xie Shuyao muttered in her heart that she was facing the ancient version of judicial auction of her house. No wonder He said that. She must have known the inside story for a long time.
Xie Shuyao walked towards the old lady, and seeing that they were against the Pei family, she introduced herself in another identity:
"Don't get excited, old lady. I also respect General Meng very much. Besides, my husband also died for the country. I can understand your feelings very well."
Hearing her words, Song Huiyin's eyes moved slightly, and she looked her up and down, and asked suspiciously: "Are you General Pei's wife?"
Xie Shuyao nodded, trying to convince others with reason.
"I understand that you don't want to move, but this is the decision of His Majesty. I am a weak woman and I really don't want to embarrass you. But the world is difficult and I can't rely on my parents or my in-laws. I just want to find a place for me and my baby to stay."
They had heard a little about Xie Shuyao's story. Song Huiyin was also a woman, so she naturally understood how difficult it was for her, especially when she thought about her child losing his father before he was even born.
This kind of pain is no less than seeing a loved one die.
But she did something wrong again!
Thinking of the past, Song Huiyin became agitated. She took two steps forward and tapped the ground with her cane.
"I have been married into the Meng family for decades. I have welcomed people and sent people off. I have trained many soldiers for the Great Zhao. They all grew up here and gave their lives to the Great Zhao. But in the end, they have lost their home. I cannot let the people of my Meng family become lonely ghosts! They will not be able to face our ancestors after they die."
Xie Shuyao had a headache. She understood that the ancients seemed to attach great importance to belonging, especially this old lady. Moreover, large families like theirs probably had ancestral temples.
Come to think of it, after giving so much, it would be undignified to just take the things away and leave.
Xie Shuyao glanced at everyone and an idea popped into his head, "I promise you, I will divide this mansion into two, and give you the Meng family's ancestral hall and the surrounding courtyards."
This answer was beyond everyone's expectations, and everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.
Song Huiyin's expression was moved, and she said with some doubt: "Are you really willing to let us stay here? As the saying goes, one family cannot have two doors. I have never heard of your idea."
Xie Shuyao didn't care at all. How big a yard could she live in by herself? It would be good to have a neighbor to take care of her in the future.
She nodded repeatedly: "Of course, it is an honor to be neighbors with the Duke of Zhenguo Mansion. Besides, the Meng family is full of loyal and brave people. They may be able to protect my Anding Marquis Mansion in the afterlife. Why not?"
This is a win-win solution. The Meng family doesn't have to move, and the dispute over the mansion can be resolved.
Just as Song Huiyin was hesitating, a man suddenly rushed out from behind the door and interrupted the words she was about to say.
"Grandmother, please don't listen to her. Anyone can say empty words. The Pei family has used despicable means before. If we let them in, we will be at their mercy. She must be deceiving you because of your age."
Xie Shuyao was busy proving herself: "Everything I said is true, otherwise we can ask the government to notarize it."
Jia Xuerui snorted disdainfully and pulled Song Huiyin to leave, "Don't try to deceive us, grandma, let's go."
Compared with Xie Shuyao, Song Huiyin obviously trusted her grandson more. She didn't say anything and was led away by Jia Xuerui.
Xie Shuyao stamped her feet angrily, "Just a little bit."
The old lady was about to agree!
