Chapter 237 The Way to Be a Concubine
This is not to prevent thieves. It's just digging a pit. Whoever will dig a four-foot ditch in his house will die even if he doesn't drown. He was afraid that he would die not enough, and he still had to lay pebbles. The sentence "picking a sharper" made Xu Zixiang vaguely feel that Shaohua was not digging a pit, but digging graves at all.
Xu Xinru's face is not much better. Obviously, this is what she said. The wall of Xingyonghou Mansion is not short, but to the west is originally a forest. Later, many trees were shoveled, but the slow slope is still retained. As long as you have some skills, it is not difficult to take advantage of it, but it is not easy to turn in from the outside. The height inside and outside the wall is different.
Shaohua felt very happy with the expressions of the Xu brothers and sisters. She smiled and said, "It's good that Xu Langjun can understand. The marquis is usually not at home, and there are only us women in the house. If anyone has any accident, the marquis can't hang up outside."
A few polite words made Xu Zixiang have nowhere to respond, and he didn't know how to cut in for a while.
Xu Xinru remembered Rouwan's explanation, calmed down and knelt in front of Shaohua in front of Xu Zixiang: "Madam, the concubine knows she is wrong and should not sneak out. Please punish her."
Of course, the most surprising thing is not Shaohua. She just feels that Xu Xin's behavior is a little want to cover up. But in Xu Zixiang's view, it is already a great thing to let Xu Xinru take the initiative to bow her head.
But no one can figure it out. Xu Xin hopes that Shaohua can be angry instead of talking so lightly.
Shaohua seemed to see through her mind and didn't care about her words. She waved Xu Xinru to get up, "If you want to fight, you'd better let the marquis deal with it."
Xu Xinru shook her head excitedly, and her voice was sincere and sincere, and she almost dug out her heart to show her sincerity.
"Madam, my concubine volunteered to ask for punishment and beg your wife to complete it."
Rouwan said that Shaohua had better be willing to fight, whether it is light or heavy, and Yan Kai's iron heart should also go and take a look at her. The only way for Xu Xinru to overthrow Shaohua is to overthrow the image she has established in Yan Kai's heart, while Xu Xinru stands opposite her.
A man will inevitably be confused by Chu's poor image. Even if he knows that she is like a snake and a scorpion, he can only be defeated by the tenderness in front of him.
In order to describe Xu Xinru more well, Rouwan took a lot of effort. When she got Xu Xinru's point, she drank three glasses of water to relieve the discomfort in her throat.
Shaohua paused for a moment and felt funny in his heart. This is not like Xu Xinru's style. It's okay to take the initiative to admit his mistake and take the initiative to ask for punishment. If it's not itchy, you'll break your brain when you climb over the wall. She looked at Xu Xinru's sincere face and couldn't help laughing. Aunt Xu, your words are reversed. You told me in front of your brother that you would be punished. Do you want me to be punished or not?
She deliberately glanced at Xu Zixiang and saw his eyes droop slightly, focusing on the ground not far away, as if listening, more like pretending to be stupid.
Shaohua lamented heavily and looked very embarrassed, "I won't punish you. Yu Li's identity as a hostess can't be said. If I punish you and be known, I'm not strict, even a concubine dares to climb over the wall and escape. It really puts me in a dilemma. Let the marquis decide.
In front of her mother's family, she can't punish Xu Xinru in the main room, but Shaohua is not happy to let Xu Xinru pass so easily.
However, Xu Xinru can say almost anything to make Shaohua take action. "Madam, you are the virtuous assistant of the marquis. You should decide all the big and small matters in the family. How can you bother the marquis? Please punish me." Xu Zixiang really wanted to pretend not to know this person at this moment. He turned his head slightly to one side, but saw the water spirit hiding at the door. Seeing that her eyes were red and she was about to cry, Xu Zixiang was shocked and almost walked out.
Xu Zixiang's behavior did not escape Shaohua's eyes. She was curious about him from the beginning. She caught a glimpse of Shuiling's figure at the door and Xu Zixiang's attitude. Shaohua had an idea in her heart.
Shaohua deliberately coughed, pulled back Xu Zixiang's attention and said to Xu Xinru, "I know you blame me. I also advised you early in the morning to respect tea, and you have to be subject to the strict family rules. Even if your mother's family is a relative of the emperor, I will never tolerate it. For the sake of Xu Langjun's personal visit to plea, I won't care about you. But now you let me punish you, did you do it on purpose?
Xu Xinru was speechless, turned her eyes and hesitated how to deal with it.
Xu Zixiang took a deep breath and made a statement, "Mrs. Hou, in your eyes, Sister She has no such intention. However, she has been overly spoiled since she was a child and a little unrestrained. As the same wife said, now her sister-in-law is a strict family, so she naturally has to follow strict family rules. Madam doesn't have to be afraid of the Xu family. She should be beaten and scolded at her disposal.
Shaohua immediately made a sudden enlightenment, that is to say, as long as he is not killed, why ** Xu Xinru can't control it.
If she had said this earlier, she wouldn't have to go around the circle.
Shao Hua immediately smiled and said, "In that case, let's go back and copy the Buddhist scriptures. Chu He, send Aunt Xu back. Obviously, the Xu brothers and sisters didn't expect to go around such a big circle. Shaohua still punished Xu Xinru to copy the scriptures. Xu Xinru was slumped, and fortunately Xu Zixiang.
As early as when talking with Shaohua, Xu Zixiang had no hope for her sister's struggle. After all, she was already married. He also couldn't help, thinking that maybe this was a good thing for Xu Xinru.
Xu Xinru was pulled down by Chu He, and Shao Huashun issued an expulsion order to Xu Zixiang, "Xu Langjun, the marquis is not in the house. I can't leave you for a long time. It's better to let Shuiling send you out."
Hearing Shui Ling, Xu Zixiang couldn't care about Xu Xinru's eager eyes for help and immediately punched Shaohua. Thank you, madam.
Looking at the second brother walking towards the water spirit at the door with a enchanted face, Xu Xinru gritted his teeth and complained in his heart.
Xu Zixiang couldn't guess whether Shaohua knew his relationship with Shuiling, but he was finally able to see his best friend. Xu Zixiang didn't think so much for a moment. Looking at the figure walking in front of her, he vaguely felt that she had lost a lot of weight. Xu Zixiang quickly stepped forward, took her hand, looked at her astonishment, and whispered, "Water spirit, you have been wronged."
Shui Ling smiled, but there was a lot of sadness in his eyes. "What did the second master say? Eat well and drink well here. What's there to be wronged?"
Naturally, Xu Zixiang knew that Shuiling was saying the opposite. At the beginning, she knelt in front of him crying and begged not to be careful about Xu Xinru's dowry. Her body and mind were already Xu Zixiang's. If she went to Xingyong Marquis's mansion, she didn't know if she could be with Xu Zixiang in this life. However, Xu Zixiang could only close her eyes and shake her head and tell her that there was nothing she could do. At that moment, Shuiling almost hit her to death.
The man she had loved for so long didn't even comfort her at this time, but only said her helplessness. Shuiling's heart was sour and bitter, and he even felt a little ridiculous. He hoped that he had no right to speak to a concubine, but he was willing to have a daydream of having children for him.
Xu Zixiang didn't like the smile on her face, which made him feel estranged. He pressed Shuiling's shoulder and said seriously, "I know you blame me, but I'm also forced. Don't worry, when Dad and they enter Beijing, I will find a way to take you out. At that time..." Who knows, Shuiling suddenly waved his hand to block his hand. Xu Zixiang Suddenly, I burst into the air and almost rushed forward.
After he stood down, he looked at the slight embarrassment on Shuiling's face, and the atmosphere suddenly became solemn.
"Let's talk about it then. The second master is easy to go. I can't send him far away." Shuiling owed to him, regardless of his surprise, and turned around and left.
"Water Spirit!" Xu Zixiang shouted, but Shuiling's footsteps were faster, and soon he ran out of his sight. The first time Shuiling refused so directly, Xu Zixiang felt very depressed and irritable. After a moment, he also turned around and left.
At this moment, the young Han, who got the news, was in a hurry to run back and return to the main house. Chu He happened to report Xu Xinru's resettlement problem with Shaohua.
The young Han seemed to be a fishy cat and looked particularly excited. "Madam, as you expected, there seems to be something wrong with Shuiling and Xu Erlang." When Shaohua asked her to secretly follow Shuiling out, she still felt that Shaohua had some small problems. What could a domestic slave have to do with his old master? Even if Shuiling was more beautiful and beautiful, how could she determine her relationship with Xu Zixiang?
But what she chased out and witnessed confirmed Shaohua's idea, "Did you hear what they say?"
The young man pulled his head and looked a little annoyed. "No, I didn't hear anything. The water spirit seemed to know that I was following her and came back halfway."
I don't know whether her goal is too obvious or Shuiling is too sensitive. If it hadn't been for Xu Zixiang's last impulse, relying on Shuiling's deliberate distance along the way and the attitude of talking to Xu Zixiang, Youhan really didn't think it had anything to do with them.
But how can Shuiling and Xu Zixiang follow Xu Xinru into the Yan family?
"She is much more sensible than Aunt Xu." Chu He nodded when he heard it.
Xu Xinru began to go crazy as soon as she returned to her courtyard. Fortunately, Shaohua told Chu He in advance: If she dared to cause trouble, tell her and let Xu Zixiang take her back, and then Xu Xinru calmed down.
Youhan also has a deep understanding of this: "If she were an aunt, her wife would feel more at ease."
Shaohua smiled, "If she were an aunt, I would be more uneasy."
Such as Shuiling's identity is unclear, even if she is clean, with her cleverness, Shaohua feels big. If Shuiling is Yan Kaizhi's concubine, she will feel uneasy. It's hard to say when she will pry someone who can tolerate and bow her head.
At the same time, Mrs. Yan also learned about Xu Xinru in the room. Mrs. Yan did not say anything about Shaohua's behavior.
On the contrary, Lin felt that Shaohua was too soft-hearted, "Madam, I don't think this lady is the head of the family, and she can't even deal with a concubine."
Mrs. Yan raised her eyebrows and smiled gently, "So how do you think you can be the head of the family?"
Lin answered as a matter of course: "Since she is a concubine and made a mistake, the punishment must not be tolerated, otherwise it will only cause more trouble next time."
Mrs. Yan shook her head and asked, "What do you think Madam is most afraid of now?"
Lin Shi was in trouble, "The thing that Madam is most afraid of..." is out of favor? Childless? But this is not true for her.
Mrs Yan sighed, "She looks closely at Kaizhi. Even if she is pregnant, she serves Kaizhi's daily life by herself and never falls by. As long as she can continue for the Yan family, I, a mother, will not add trouble to them. Seeing that Lin was a little clear, Mrs. Yan said again, "She just doesn't want to give Xu any excuse to see Kaizhi. In this way, I also have a lot less trouble."
Only then did Lin understand. It was said that Shaohua was now considerate of Yan Kaizhi and obedient. She thought she had a child and finally qualitatively. Now it seems that the mother-in-law's heart is really broad, and Xu Xinru has suffered a lot when she enters this door.
Mrs Yan read a passage and suddenly stopped, "Arrange a time for Zhaocheng to come in and don't touch the marquis."
