Chapter 34: Notoriety
A few days later, the rare snow stopped on this day, revealing a ray of sunshine, and Xiao Jinxuan's room was roasted warm by a charcoal basin.
And she was next to the window, leaning lightly on the soft couch, holding a copy of "Zuo Biography" in her hand and reading it with relish.
Replacing the herbal tea on the side, Baizhu, who brought the hot tea up, tilted his head, and said curiously: "Miss, how can I look at you, I actually read these boring and difficult history books on weekdays, you should read the Book of Poetry, the lyrics and songs are, and then fill in the words and poems, so as to show your talent." ”
Xiao Jinxuan's eyes did not leave the scroll, and said with a smile: "Although the poems and songs are beautiful, they are flashy and unreal, how can they compare to these historical books, after reading them, people can understand the past and the present, and increase their knowledge." ”
Since the last plum blossom banquet, Xiao Jinxuan has fought with Ji Lingfeng for the first time.
Now every time she thinks about it, she secretly sighs that she is lucky, if she is not lucky, I am afraid that she will have already fallen into the other party's way.
As for Ji Lingfeng, she was beaten by her like that, but she still retreated, and after this scene, the two could only say that they had a draw, and no one really got a bargain.
So she can see that being reborn and coming back is not enough with a heart of revenge, after all, she was a woman in the deep house, and her knowledge and strategy are not Ji Lingfeng's opponents.
So now, she wants to turn all this hatred into motivation, just like cotton absorbs water, and she also has to read countless books to increase her scheming and strategy.
And poetry and songs, it's good to look at it, learn it well, and you don't need half a point to save your life, you really don't need to waste too much energy, on this.
At this time, the door of the house was pushed open, and Zhu Xin walked in from the outside, and said jokingly: "Miss, Wen Xin, Steward Xin said that there is something to do, and he must see you in person, but now he is angry, and he is used to it by Miss." ”
Bamboo heart is Xiao Jinxuan, the new name given to bamboo, after Lan Zhi was kicked out that day. Bamboo had an understanding, so he said that the original name was given by his parents, but now that his mother is gone, and his father is also asking for her, it is better to change her name and start anew.
So she begged Xiao Jinxuan to name her anew.
Xiao Jinxuan read at that time: "Bamboo is born in the wilderness, and the clouds are towering. No one appreciates the high festival, and he holds his own chastity in vain"
This is a poem that praises the noble and upright bamboo, does not envy wealth and dignity, and holds the integrity.
She took out the first and last words of the poem and gave the bamboo the name Bamboo Heart.
It means that she hopes that she is also like an upright green bamboo, who will not forget today's words and will never live up to this original intention.
As for Wen Xin, the day after that day, he came to Xiao Mansion to take up a post, and it happened that Xiao Jinxuan lacked an errand manager, so he asked him to do it.
With a shallow smile, Xiao Jinxuan said, "Call him in, if he can't handle it, he won't come to me." ”
Wen Xin has a very strong ability to do things, coupled with his lively personality and very good mouth, after he came, he really helped Xiao Jinxuan reduce a lot of burden, and he was very valued by her.
After a while, Xiao Wenxin came in, and as soon as he got closer, he frowned and said: "Jinxuan, your mother-in-law is too capable of making trouble, Mother Li came again, saying that she wants to see you, if you don't go, she will immediately die on the spot, so I'll come to ask you if you want to go." ”
The two are cousins, and Wen Xin has always said that everyone else calls Xiao Jinxuan Miss, but he has to call each other by name, and he also said that it is more close.
Xiao Jinxuan didn't care about this, Baizhu said him a few times, but his hippie face just didn't change, and after a long time, he called Jinxuan.
Gently closing the book, Xiao Jinxuan said with a light smile: "She also loves her daughter, and now that Xiao Jinlian has an accident, my Xiao family is already infamous enough, and her eldest lady can't have an accident at this time, otherwise this reputation may not be what it will look like." ”
As soon as she said this, Xiao Jinxuan became angry, Ji Lingfeng actually beat her, although she ruined the other party's plan that day, but the rumors about Xiao Jinlian's loss of virginity and adultery afterwards were still well known in Yangzhou.
Later, thanks to this snow disaster, things calmed down a lot, and she ordered people to give porridge to the people every day, which suppressed the rumors.
But it was just suppressed, Xiao Mansion's face was actually not recovered, and if she wanted to break the rumor of Ji Lingfeng, she had to find another way.
Standing up from the couch, Xiao Jinxuan picked up the copper hand stove and said softly: "Let's go, I haven't been to see my mother since she was confined, since she misses me so much, I'll listen to what she wants to say to me." ”
After a cup of tea, Xiao Jinxuan came to Ning's Yacui Courtyard, and as soon as she entered, she found that the courtyard was very desolate, except for snow, and she couldn't even see the girl who was talking to the door.
She didn't care, she walked directly to the main house where the Ning family lived, and only then did she come to the door, and before she could go in, a burst of cursing and crying came out from inside.
"Cheap hooves, broken goods, Mrs. Ben beat you to lift you, hurry up and roll over, you dare to hide!"
Then there was a loud slap and the persuasion of others
"Madam, why are you angry with this girl, Lan Zhi, hurry up and get out, don't be an eyesore again, do you hear?"
Xiao Jinxuan, who was standing outside the door, could hear that this was Mother Li's voice.
Then a crying voice came: "Lan Zhi knows, I'll go out." ”
As soon as the words fell, the curtain of the door was lifted after a while, and then Lan Zhi covered her red and swollen face and ran out crying.
When she looked up and saw Xiao Jinxuan standing in front of the door, she was stunned, then hurriedly lowered her head, cried and ran away quickly.
Seeing this, Zhu Xin on the side flashed unbearably on his face, and just wanted to speak, but Wen Xin spoke first.
"Since this Lan Zhi was driven away by Jinxuan, she lied to people, and everyone knows it, and now there is no one in this mansion who treats her, she was accused of being an errand with the eldest lady, and now she is beaten and scolded, she also deserves it, if you know today, why bother in the first place."
After Wen Xin finished speaking, he shook his head at Zhu Xin, how could the latter not know what he meant, nodded, suppressed the discomfort in his heart, and said nothing.
Xiao Jinxuan didn't speak, she was by no means hard-hearted, but she didn't have rules and no rules, she was too accommodating to others in her previous life, and as a result, she hurt herself, she wouldn't make this kind of mistake again.
Baizhu opened the door curtain, Xiao Jinxuan walked in, and there was a burst of cold air in front of her, there was not even a pot of carbon in Ning's house, and the temperature was not much different from the outside.
Ning, who was still cursing non-stop, like a shrew, immediately rushed to the side of ** the moment he saw Xiao Jinxuan, took out a pair of scissors from under the pillow, and then pressed it against his neck.
Then she said viciously: "Xiao Jinxuan, you hurry up and take my poor Lian'er back, the doctor said, she is just too frightened, careful care, she can still get better, but you dead girl, but send her away, if you don't return my daughter to me, I will die in front of you." ”
Looking at it coldly, the Ning family, who shouted hoarsely, the dignified and generous appearance of the past is long gone, unkempt, disheveled, and hideous, as embarrassed as he is, how embarrassed he is.
Xiao Jinxuan smiled and said indifferently: "Mother is wrong, it is because the family temple is quiet and conducive to recuperation, so my daughter proposed to ask my sister to go there to recuperate, my mother felt that it was inappropriate, but my father agreed, is my mother questioning my father's decision now?" ”
When Ning heard this, he was even more excited: "If it weren't for you being a slut instigating you, the master would not have driven Lian'er away, you should take Lian'er back immediately, otherwise I have a bad one now, and you will wait to be charged with murdering your mother-in-law." ”
Looking at Ning with cold eyes, like a trapped beast struggling, Xiao Jinxuan said with a smile: "I forced my grandmother to death? Then ask who saw it. ”
Then her ice-like eyes swept over the faces of the people in the room, and asked in a cold voice, "Mother Li, have you ever seen me come to Yacui Courtyard?" ”
Mother Li, who was bothering to snatch Ning's scissors, changed her face when she heard this, and immediately said deferentially: "The slave maid inspected the Yacui Courtyard in a row, and I never saw the fourth lady coming. ”
Xiao Jinxuan smiled with satisfaction, and said loudly: "Mother can hear clearly, your life can't threaten me, let's throw away the scissors quickly, you are the eldest lady, don't even lose this last physique." ”
Ning Shi gasped and pointed at Xiao Jinxuan in disbelief, but the right hand holding the scissors finally hung down weakly, and her whole person also fell to the ground.
Originally, Xiao Jinxuan didn't come to see her, but Ning always thought that the other party was ashamed and a little afraid of her.
Now it seems that where people are afraid of her, they simply treat her as an ant and disdain to ignore her.
Ning, who saw the current situation clearly, immediately changed into a desolate appearance, and tears burst out of her eyes: "Jinxuan, I know you complain about me, I used to criticize you, but we are a family in the end, Lian'er is your sister after all, she is sick now, even if you don't want to take her back, it's good to ask a doctor to take a look at her, not to mention that although I have hurt you, but you are not good now, why do you have to be so careful, God is watching, you really have to do things so ruthlessly." ”
When Xiao Jinxuan heard this, she covered her lips and laughed, with a mocking look in her eyes, looking at Ning coldly.
Is she okay now? Didn't the other party make it difficult for her to die, she still has to be grateful to Dade, God really watched it, if it wasn't for God's eyes, how could she be reborn.
With a wave of her hand, Xiao Jinxuan said, "You all go out, my mother and I have something to say." ”
When everyone heard this, they all bowed and retreated, but Wen Xin took two steps, but turned back and said, "Jinxuan, I don't worry about you being here, let me stay." ”
Xiao Jinxuan glanced at Wen Xin, looking at the other party's eyes full of worry, it was so sincere, her heart suddenly warmed, and she nodded and agreed.
It is indeed very strange between people, and some people, even if they are just new acquaintances, will feel that they have the same heart and want to be close
And some people, even if they just glance at it in a hurry, will feel unhappy in their hearts, and they are even more reluctant to make friends.
This is probably fate, and for Wen Xin, Xiao Jinxuan inexplicably felt very trusting and down-to-earth from the first time she saw the other party.
So next, even if the conversation with the Ning family shouldn't be heard, she didn't care about Wen Xin's presence.
This trust is really rare for her cautious and cautious character.
