Chapter 829 The big day(2/2)
Today we have invited relatives of the Xie family from all over the country, as well as distinguished guests from Yangzhou, but don’t make a fool of yourself if the bride doesn’t arrive by then.
Xie Li smiled and said: "Grandpa, don't worry. How can a woman be careless about this kind of thing? She must have already set off. The team is already halfway. I have also arranged for people to contact outside the city. Once we meet, we will come back and report immediately. I will go there again."
Welcoming the bride."
Xie Guangde smiled and said: "Okay, okay." Then he asked: "Aren't there any guests yet?"
Xie Li smiled and said, "Grandpa, it's still early."
Xie Guangde ordered: "Li'er, today's guests must be treated equally regardless of whether they are rich or poor, do you understand?"
"Don't worry, don't you know Li'er's character yet?"
Just when it was said that there were no guests, a sedan came to a stop at the door of Xie's mansion, and a person came out of the sedan. It was Xie Qiupeng from Yongjia County, a branch of the Xie family in Kuaiji.
Xie Guangde and Xie Li stepped forward to greet him.
Xie Qiupeng chuckled and said, "Uncle De, congratulations."
Xie Guangde smiled and said: "Thank you."
After Xie Qiupeng said congratulations to Xie Li, the groom, he gently asked: "Where's Fu?"
Xie Guangde was surprised when he heard this. It was well known to everyone in the Xie family that Xie Fu was expelled from the clan.
Normally there was nothing much to see in the mansion, but on today's occasion, he was worrying about whether to let Xie Fu appear, but he didn't expect that Xie Qiupeng would take the initiative to bring it up.
Seeing this, Xie Qiupeng asked: "What? There is a happy event in the palace, and Mr. Xie didn't come back?"
"Qiu Peng, please sit down in the mansion first and then talk."
The two of them sat down in the hall, and Xie Guangde explained: "He is back, but he has been expelled from the clan. It is not suitable for him to show up on an occasion like today."
Xie Qiupeng thought about it after hearing this, and found that it was in line with Xie Guangde's style of doing things.
So he told the story of how Xie Fu interceded with Lu Tao, the governor of Suzhou, and saved his family's lives.
After hearing this, Xie Guangde naturally marveled in his heart, is Fu's ability so great?
As the direct descendant of the Xie family in Kuaiji, he was supposed to be responsible and able to help the clan members at critical moments. Now that he was more capable, Fu could do it, but he was the one who was expelled from the clan, which was simply ironic.
At this moment, Xie Guangde was a little embarrassed, feeling like he had become an old fool in front of Xie Qiupeng.
Xie Qiupeng smiled and said: "Uncle De, I have discussed with several uncles in the clan and want to hold a grand ceremony for Fu and let him return to the Xie family with honor. I hope you will give him a chance because he was young and ignorant at the time."
They say that he is young and ignorant, give him a chance. They are all nice words. The real reason is that Xie Fu is now more capable. Who doesn't want to have a big backer in the clan to rely on?
Xie Guangde was overjoyed when he heard this. It was suspected of favoritism for him to speak up about this matter. It would be best for Xie Qiupeng to take the lead. He nodded and said with a smile: "He knows his mistakes and can correct them. He is also quite filial to me, so I'll give him a
Give it a chance."
The two of them discussed Xie Fu's return to the clan.
