"The slave family doesn't dare." The woman whispered.

Xu Wei seemed to be really scared when he heard her tone, so he reached out and grabbed her left hand, feeling that the other party was stiff, on such a hot day, her hand was actually cold! Holding the delicate little hand in the palm of his hand, Xu Wei tried his best to make his tone sound soft: "Don't be afraid, I don't eat people." ”

The woman raised her head timidly, and Xu Wei was a little stunned when she saw it. She was by no means twenty years old, and her bright eyes were full of unease when she looked at her, and her lips were pursed as if she were about to cry. She said it wasn't hot, but her sideburns were wet and stuck to the corners of her ears.

Xu Wei held her hand and wondered: "Your hands are cold, but you are sweating profusely, are you sick?" ”

The woman shook her head, her arms less stiff. Because she found that this man was not as vicious as she imagined, and the temperature transmitted by that thick palm made her feel steady.

"Then you don't want to? Someone forced you? If so, you say it bluntly. Xu Weidao, just other things, women, as long as they want it, I'm afraid there will be no shortage of it.

"No one is forced, the slave family is supposed to be a sinful body, if it is not for Mrs. Xu's redemption, I don't know how to live, how dare I not want to?" The woman spoke with a weeping voice.

Xu Wei only made the same statement at this time, everyone was married, and he didn't know what her name was or what her origin was. patted her hand and said softly: "I only know that your home is in Chengdu, but why do you want my sister-in-law to buy it?" "He originally thought that he needed to redeem it, but it was from the Qinglou realm? But after thinking about it, he is now a captain, and his sister-in-law is not so unreliable. If these military attachés in the army buy a camp prostitute as a concubine, it is nothing. If I, Xu, am like this, it will be a joke in Hangzhou.

As soon as she mentioned this, the woman couldn't hold back her tears: "Taiwei Rongyu, the slave family was originally from Chengdu Prefecture, and his father was born as a Jinshi, and he served as a magistrate of the county. The slave family was not an official maid, and was sent to Fengzhou, where he was ransomed and bought by Mrs. Xu in the house for half a year. ”

"Oh." Xu Wei responded. If you fall into the fate of your family, that sin is definitely not small. Unexpectedly, this woman is from a scholar's family, no wonder her behavior is a little different.

"The slave's surname is Zhu, the small character Jilan, nineteen this year." When the woman said this, she could not help but wipe away her tears with her right hand. I think she was originally an official eunuch, although her father was not a jinshi and a first, but the "same jinshi" was also a jinshi, and she also served as a magistrate, and her family background was good. Whoever wants to be convicted will have their family ruined. An official lady was confiscated as an official maid and fell directly from Qingyun to hell, no wonder she was so sad.

Hearing that she was nineteen years old, Xu Wei suddenly felt that he was an old man at the age of thirty-five. But after thinking about it, Wu Jinqing is in his forties, and he married a concubine not long ago who was only seventeen years old, serious **.

Thinking of this, he let go of Zhu Jilan's hand, stroked his shoulder and comforted: "You don't have to be sad, this will be your home in the future." ”

Na Zhu Jilan listened to his words with concern, and his behavior was not rude, but he was indeed relieved. A woman like her who is a scholar generally has a stereotypical image of a martial artist. Such as being vulgar, irritable, indulgent, and so on. But the man in front of him is obviously not among them, although he has a promoted figure and a mighty face, his behavior is quite considerate. I wanted to have the courage to say a few words to him, but I saw Xu Wei stand up.

"I have a tight headache, I'm going to get a whole bowl of decanting soup." With that, the purple tiger walked towards the door.

Zhu Jilan raised her hand and moved her lips, but she didn't say anything. She originally thought that she should go to this matter, but when she first arrived, she was not familiar with anything, and she was a little afraid to do so. After such a hesitation, Xu Wei had already opened the door and went out.

There was only himself left in the room, Zhu Jilan was no longer so restrained, looking at this strange environment, thinking of his miserable experience, he couldn't help but feel sad. But this is already the case, how sad can it be? I just hope that the captain can love more, the eldest lady can be more tolerant, as long as the life can go on, then thank God.

Just thinking about it, she heard the door ringing, and she thought it was Xu Wei coming back. took a closer look, but saw a maid come in with a plate, give a salute, and said crisply: "Taiwei ordered, saying that Erniang must be hungry, so he asked to bring some soup and rice." ”

Zhu Jilan saw that she was only thirteen or fourteen years old, her body was thin, and her childishness had not been taken off, so she asked her to put down the plate and asked, "What's your name?" ”

"Erniang forgot? The maid was married from Fengzhou and was called Fangxiu. The maid was surprised.

Zhu Jilan then remembered that when Xu Fu sent him over, there were still four girls to marry. is also a newcomer, under the fence, I can't help but feel a sense of pity, so I said: "They are all hard-working people." ”

"Erniang can marry Taiwei, this is a blessing, how can you live a hard life? is like a servant, who was sold by his parents several times on the way to flee with his family, and his life was miserable. Fangxiu said.

Zhu Jilan smiled bitterly and went to the table, she was indeed hungry, Fang Xiu set the meal, and she sat down to eat. Fang Xiu watched from the side, and saw that this Erniang was sitting dignified, with elegant manners, never picking more chopsticks, eating in small bites, and looking like a person who had never been hungry. I thought that when I first arrived at Xu Siguanren's mansion, I could nibble on three buns in one breath.

After Zhu Jilan finished eating, Fang Xiu cleaned up the dishes and said, "Taiwei said that Erniang is new here, I'm afraid she is a little restrained." He won't spend the night here tonight, the servant lives outside, and Erniang has something to do, just give an order. ”

A touch of surprise suddenly flashed on a delicate face, and I wish Ji Lan's heart jumped, isn't it too much to annoy me?

Besides, Xu Wei got out of the new house, went to the flower hall to sit for a while, and asked the kitchen to make a bowl of sobering soup. When asked about the guests, they replied that they were all gone. After all, taking a concubine is not as good as marrying a wife, just have a meal and make trouble. It's also a shame that he took a concubine, and in exchange for someone else, how can it be so grand?

After drinking the sobering soup, it was already dark, Xu Wei sat for a while, feeling better, and then went to the back hall. Each room was lit up, and the people were surprised to see Xu Wei wandering outside for such a good night. After a while, in front of Zhang Jiujiu's room, Xu Wei pushed open the door.

I saw that the room was brightly lit, Zhang Jiujiu was sitting at the table, holding the second daughter Xu Yan in his arms, and the eldest daughter Xu Yan was standing in front of him. As soon as they heard the door, the mother and daughter all turned their heads. There was a clear look of loneliness on September's face, but as soon as the two daughters saw their father, Xu Yan immediately grabbed it, and even Xu Yan broke free from her mother's embrace and followed her sister upside down.

The majesty on Xu Wei's body suddenly dissipated cleanly, touching the brains of his two daughters, and his face was full of pity. Raising his head again to look at his wife, Zijin Hu smiled and said, "How can you look like a resentful woman who has fallen out of favor?" ”

"What does a father mean a woman who has fallen out of favor?"

"Uh......"
