Chapter 231: Two Choices
Xiaomei recalled that one afternoon in the early autumn, she had just finished dressing and was called to the room by Shen Wei. Unlike in the past, when she was instructed to do rough work, Shen Wei actually gave Xiaomei a seat.
The girls and mothers-in-law in the room all went down, and only Xiaomei and Shen Wei were left in the room.
"Xiaomei," she heard Shen Wei slightly open her lips, "what do you think of the young master?" ”
Xiaomei was so frightened that she quickly stood up from the stool, obviously she had reduced the number of meetings with Xia Chengdao recently, why did Shen Wei still push herself so much? Xiaomei has some grievances in her heart that she can't pour out. Does Shen Wei have to die by himself to be willing?
"Girl, am I not asking you?" Shen Wei slowly approached Xiaomei's side, and pinched Xiaomei's chin with her slender fingers, pinching Xiaomei was slightly painful, but she didn't dare to make a sound. "I haven't taught you the rules in the waiting house, do you want to answer when Madame asks?"
Xiaomei is a head shorter than Shen Wei, and she looks even weaker at the moment. Looking at the hideous expression on Xiaomei's face, Shen Wei hooked the corners of her lips slightly, and then gently let go of her tight hand, "What?" has the ability to seduce the young master, but is not capable of admitting it himself? Heh~"
"I'll give you two options." Shen Wei slowly sat back in her original position, took a sip of tea, and moistened her freshly dried and fiery lips. "First, listen to me well, go to Xia Zhiqiu to inquire about the news for me, and tell me immediately if there is any trouble."
"As for the second ......" Shen Wei deliberately paused for a moment, "Since you like to seduce the young master so much, I will send you to Renyazi and sell it to a random countryman." With such a good look, it should be able to sell for a lot of money. Gee...... What do you think? Shen Wei licked her lips, like a bloodthirsty beast.
Xiaomei felt goosebumps all over her body, she was sold to Houfu as a maid by her gambling father since she was a child, others said that this is a blessing that has been cultivated for several lifetimes, if you can be lucky enough to be taken by which Hou Ye and the prince have taken a fancy to it, this is a matter of changing fate! Others only say that Xiaomei's life is a blessing that has been cultivated for several lifetimes, but only Xiaomei herself knows that since the moment she entered the Houfu, her life is no longer her own life.
It's not that she hasn't considered the second option, which obviously sounds so "tempting". As long as she can escape from this place, it doesn't matter where she goes, or how much hardship she endures, anyway, her life is just a life of hardship. But listening to what Shen Wei said so easily, but in fact, the deed of sale was not with Shen Wei at all, and the deed of sale was basically locked in Xia Huaiqing's study. The people in the Hou Mansion are at least not her turn to be in charge of Shen Wei now.
Xiaomei has been in Houfu for seven years, not much, but it is also a lot, she has seen so many cold and warm in the world, calculating with each other, and she still has this brain. In the end, if she didn't agree to Shen Wei, Shen Wei would definitely make trouble with Xia Huaiqing and find out all the relationship between herself and Xia Chengdao.
Xia Chengdao is the biological son of Hou Ye, even if his son makes any mistakes, he will not even take his son's life when he is a father. But it's different. Xiaomei has Xia Chengdao in her heart, but she is still as clear as a mirror in her heart.
On the surface, there are two roads, but in fact the other is a real dead end. You simply don't have a choice.
The purpose of coming to Xia Zhiqiu's courtyard, Shen Wei had already informed herself, just as Xia Zhiqiu had guessed, instigated. instigated Xia Zhiqiu and Xia Zhixue to make this waiting house a mess, and she, Shen Wei, only enjoyed the benefits of the fisherman.
Raise soldiers for a while, use soldiers for a while. In many nights when Xia Zhiqiu collapsed, Xiaomei also thought the same way, in fact, Shen Wei had long known her feelings for Xia Chengdao, and the reason why she didn't kill herself before was mainly to stay at this time. Xiaomei smiled self-deprecatingly. Bookbag netting
"You don't have to rush to deny it. Since I have said it, I have a point. But Xiaomei, you have to be clear, what Xia Zhiqiu hates most in her life is that others lie to me. "There is no one who does anything to himself like Shen Wei, but Xia Zhiqiu's eyes are already as cold as an ice cellar, piercing Xiaomei's heart.
"Miss......" Xiaomei wanted to speak and stopped.
"If you still have me as a lady in your eyes, just say it." Xia Zhiqiu's step-by-step persecution overwhelmed Xiaomei.
"I know your concerns. It's just the interests of the left and right. After following me for such a while, you must have understood a thing or two about what kind of person I am. Who has the final say in the end, you weigh it. ”
After listening to Xia Zhiqiu's words, Xiaomei's confirmation really thought about it. Xia Zhiqiu is finally obviously choosing for herself, she needs a credible maidservant, if she rejects Xia Zhiqiu today, or has a dumb fight with Xia Zhiqiu. With Xia Zhiqiu's identity, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not find a second reliable person.
What's more, Xia Zhiqiu is the eldest daughter of this Hou Ye, and it is impossible to defect to his concubine Xia Zhixue, and in the face of Shen Wei and Xia Zhiqiu, Xia Zhixue is simply unable to protect herself. In the future, Xia Zhiqiu will also sit on the throne of the nineteenth princess. With Xia Zhiqiu's means, it is not easy to gain a foothold in the Nineteen Princes' Mansion, but once she succeeds, the glory and wealth of the rest of her life are waiting for her.
This is not the most important thing, the most important thing is that if he follows Xia Zhiqiu, from the day Xia Zhiqiu enters the Hou Mansion, he will no longer be controlled by anyone in the Hou Mansion, including Shen Wei.
This is undoubtedly a huge temptation for Xiaomei.
"Miss......" Xiaomei knelt on her knees and kowtowed to Xia Zhiqiu.
"I said it, don't answer me in a hurry." Xia Zhiqiu took a sip of tea and moistened his throat. She Xia Zhiqiu likes to do things that she is sure of, as long as Xiaomei has a little brain, she will not refuse such a heart-warming condition that she proposed.
"No, Miss, I've figured it out now. In the future, Xiaomei will be the eldest lady's person. After speaking, Xiaomei kowtowed three more times on the ground to show her loyalty to Xia Zhiqiu.
The corners of Xia Zhiqiu's lips hooked, and sure enough, he was not too stupid. Xia Zhiqiu twisted his body, slowly walked to Xiaomei, and slightly supported Xiaomei who was kneeling on the ground with both arms, "Very good, you are a smart child." Remember, when you say this, you obediently put your mind on me, and if I find out, you will still collude with others......"
The smile on Xia Zhiqiu's face gradually became cold, "It's absolutely indispensable to give you good fruits to eat." Xiaomei looked at the sneer on Xia Zhiqiu's face and shuddered.
She didn't know if her choice was right, but this choice was enough to change the rest of her life, she couldn't always be Shen Wei's puppet, she always had to win a game for herself. For Xiaomei, this Houfu is an endless cage, born with an inferior status, so that she can't rely on anyone, only by following Xia Zhiqiu to fight hard, it is possible to rush out. Although the outcome lies unknown, it is full of expectations.
