To deal with a stubborn and even paranoid person like Xie's mother, it is useless to talk to her in any big way. Only by making her hurt and helpless can she reflect on the past.

Hitting the snake seven inches and killing it with one blow is Xie Yong's usual method of dealing with political opponents and people from the outside world. If he turns his head to deal with women in the inner house, I am afraid no one will be his opponent, including Xie's mother.

Xie's mother pressed him and Yuan Yizhi step by step, but he gave in step by step, and even chose to go outside. In the end, he was forced into a desperate situation and could only fight back.

The originally praiseworthy mother of the number one scholar has fallen to her current situation. Who is to blame?

Mother Xie, who keeps complaining and scolding, may not reflect on herself for the time being.

Eight months later.

Yangzhou, Xie Mansion.

The delivery room in the inner house was quiet, except for Po Wen's occasional voice. Three hours had passed since Yuan Yizhi entered, and Xie Yong was walking around in the corridor outside, anxious.

Xie Zhao stood in front of the door, standing on tiptoes from time to time, trying to look inside.

Xie Yong grabbed the old doctor who was also waiting next to him and asked: "Other mothers screamed at the top of their lungs, why is Yizhi silent? She... will be fine!"

He originally wanted to ask something, but in the end he told himself like a hypnosis - Yizhi will be fine, he will definitely not be!

For the smooth delivery of Yuan Yizhi, Mrs. Zheng of Yuanfu specially sent two experienced women, and there was also Yangzhou's famous gynecological expert Wang Gu, so Yizhi would be fine!

The old doctor twirled his sparse beard and said with a smile: "All the mothers in Aunt Wang's care are like this. According to her, this allows the mothers to save energy and concentrate on giving birth, which is safer."

Xie Yong thought for a while and nodded in agreement. Aunt Wang was indeed extraordinary.

While Xie Yong and his son were worried, a sound of baby crying came from the delivery room. The cry was loud and full of energy. It was obviously a healthy child.

Xie Yong breathed a sigh of relief, but his heart was still anxious.

After a while, the door of the delivery room was opened. It was a daughter of a wealthy family. She was white, plump and very cute."

Xie Yong glanced at the little thing and asked eagerly: "Is the potion safe?Can I go in?"

Yuan Yizhi's voice came from inside: "I'm fine, it's too filthy inside, don't come in, I don't want you to see me in such a mess."

Xie Yong stopped at the door.

It wasn't until basins of blood were brought out and Yuan Yizhi was cleaned up that Xie Yong was put into the room.

Yuan Yizhi's hair was wet with sweat, but she seemed to be in good spirits. Grandma Sun prepared brown sugar rice porridge and eggs for her, and she was eating them with a good appetite.

Xie Yong sat next to her and looked at her intently.

Yuan Yizhi held up an egg and said with a smile: "You don't know how relaxed I am now. The big stone in my stomach has disappeared. The greedy insect that has disappeared for a long time has finally appeared again. I feel like I can eat a cow... Hey!Why are you crying again?Hello?Don't scare me. What's wrong with the baby?Tell me quickly!Weren't you fine just now?"

The smell of blood in the delivery room was too strong, and the baby had already been carried to the Nuan Pavilion, where a nurse had been hired to take care of her.

Yuan Yizhi was really tired and needed to rest for a while before changing positions.

Xie Yong hugged her tightly, barely suppressing the surging tears and unable to make a sound.

This time, there were no tears, but he shed more tears than ever before, and they were all sincere.

He thought that he had been trained by the officialdom and the noisy family experience to become a cold-blooded person without tears, but he didn't know until now that he was not.

His tears were still many and very hot.

Remembering what Yuan Yizhi said to him on the night of consummation, he leaned into Yuan Yizhi's ear and said softly: "Madam, thank you."

Thank you for your gentleness and kindness.

Thank you for your brightness and liveliness.

Thank you for being willing to marry me and let me renew my relationship. Finally, I will not be lonely in life.

Xie Yong and Yuan Yizhi stayed together for their entire lives. They were always loving and devoted to each other, making others envious of them.

Yuan Yiyi gave birth to a total of six children, four boys and two girls. Including Xie Zhao, Xie Yong had a total of seven children. If gender was not taken into account, Xie's mother told his fortune, saying that he would have "seven sons and eight grandchildren" in this life, which was partly fulfilled to a certain extent.

Xie Yong loves his youngest daughter Xie Nuan the most. All parents have preferences, which is human nature. Moreover, Xie Nuan is the youngest child in the family, and her brothers and sisters are willing to let her go. Everyone turns a blind eye to her father's favoritism.

Xie Nuan's appearance combines all the advantages of her parents. She is the most beautiful child in the family, and her phoenix eyes are even more enchanting. Yuan Yizhi is even worried that she will get into trouble because she is too beautiful when she grows up.

Children who are pampered by their parents are somewhat arrogant and willful, and Xie Nuan is no exception.

When Xie Nuan was five years old, she already loved beauty and liked to compare herself with other children. Yuan Yizhi was troubled by her bad tendencies and wanted to teach her a lesson, but Xie Yong protected her and Yuan Yizhi angrily said, "A loving father often loses his daughter."

One day, Xie Nuan came back from a visit with her mother and immediately went to the study to find Xie Yong. He held up the golden longevity lock hanging around his neck and said loudly: "Dad, I don't want this lock anymore, it's so ugly!"Everyone laughs at me!"

At this time, Xie Yong had already returned to the capital and was promoted to the right prime minister of Jingguo. He and the left prime minister Yuan Xiuzhi jointly controlled the government and were the mainstay among the civil servants.

Xie Nuan was born in the capital and grew up in the capital. She is well-informed and likes to follow fashion. She dislikes the golden longevity lock she wears around her neck. It is stupid, clumsy and outdated, which makes her very embarrassed among the ladies of the capital.

This golden longevity lock is said to be an heirloom of the Xie family. Xie Nuan's brothers and sisters have all worn it, and their father personally wore it for them. It has been passed down to several children one by one. Now it is the turn of the youngest Xie Nuan to wear it.

In the past, whenever Xie Nuan asked for something, whether it was for food or fun, Xie Yong would try his best to satisfy her, but today, Xie Yong had a straight face and said: "Nonsense!Have you learned vanity at such a young age?He just follows what others say and has no opinion at all."

Xie Nuan had rarely seen his father put on a straight face since he was a child. At this time, he was a little frightened. His little hand holding the golden lock was stiff, and two tears slowly appeared in his clear and beautiful phoenix eyes.

Xie Yong sighed, bent down and held his little daughter on his lap and sat down. He held her little hand in his big hand and picked up the longevity lock. He softened his tone and said to her: "Do you know the origin of this longevity lock?"

Xie Nuan replied tenderly: "It's a family heirloom of our Xie family."

"Not at first.Xie Yong's eyes became gentler and he said: "Dad, let me tell you a story. Many years ago, there was a poor man who went to Beijing to take the exam. He got sick because of the acclimatization and spent all his little money. As a result, he was kicked out of the inn. The son had no choice but to go to Huangguo Temple to stay. It is said that the monks were compassionate. However, because there were too many scholars who were taking the exam, the temple would not accept them without money.That person stood stupidly outside the temple gate, with no friends, no one to seek refuge with, no money to eat, and he might starve to death."

Xie Nuan opened her mouth wide and said: "He is so pitiful, why doesn't he come to our house?I can give him a little bit of my fruit."

Xie Yong laughed and couldn't help but kiss his little daughter's face and said: "Nuan Nuan is so good, as kind-hearted as your mother.At that time, a nine-year-old girl went to Huangguo Temple with her family to offer incense. Seeing that Juren was in such a state of desolation and the monk would not take him in, she jumped out of the carriage, took off the golden longevity lock around her neck and gave it to Juren. She said to him, "Mother said this is very valuable. You can use this to exchange money to prepare for the exam."’ The little girl’s nanny came out to stop her and told her that it was her longevity lock and could not be given away. But the little girl said: ‘Monks are supposed to be compassionate but they are not compassionate. The longevity lock that I asked for from this temple may not be able to protect my longevity, right?It's better to give it away and help others, maybe you can accumulate good fortune and good deeds.’”

Xie Nuan listened blankly. She still couldn't fully understand the meaning of her father's words, but she felt that the little girl was so cute. She asked, "What happened next?"

"Later, Juzi used the gold locked in a pawn shop to pawn some money, which was enough for him to live in a hotel and eat, and it supported him until he won the first prize in the exam.After getting into the exam and having money, Juzi redeemed the golden longevity lock from the pawn shop and regarded the lock as a family heirloom."
