Chapter 162: Xu's Heart
So Bao Xin didn't wait for instructions, so he prepared a copper stove to warm his hands early.
"Madam, it's cold this day, you get up early and be greedy for the New Year's affairs, these days stay up late every day, stay up carefully for a long time, hurt your qi and blood, this blood is not good, people are afraid of cold. The slave and maid specially prepared a copper stove to warm your hands. ”
Bao Xin's face is full of smiles, she has a beautiful face, combing oblique bangs, it looks quiet, if she is full of smiles, this beautiful face looks a little distorted, but it is still beautiful.
Appearance is the most important criterion for Xu Fu to choose a maid.
Because the Xu family made a fortune by doing the silk weaving business, he later intervened in the salt factory.
No matter what you do, you can't do without the care of the powerful, especially the bigger the Xu family does, the more you need the powerful to take care of it.
Often invite the powerful to come to the house to talk, and it is inevitable to send one or two delicate maids to the magnates, so the biggest feature of the maids in the Xu Mansion is their beauty.
When Xu Huimin married into the Wenfu and brought such a group of beautiful maids, I would like to ask which man in the entire Shangrou City is not envious. Everyone likes to see if Wen Dui, a self-proclaimed gentleman who is not in chaos, will suddenly open meat one day and attack the dowry maid brought by his wife, but before waiting for this day, Wen Duan suddenly took the Danshu iron coupon placed in the Wen family ancestral hall, Pegasus entered the imperial city, and asked the emperor to pardon Xiao Ruen, a female cultivator of Chaoyunguan.
Such a stunning and brilliant man, for the sake of fame, can abandon everything and not hesitate to anger Shengwei.
Therefore, some men in Shangroucheng gradually understood that a man is outstanding in beauty; can sit still, not necessarily because he is a cold gentleman who is not eye-catching, but because you are not the flower he is obsessed with.
Therefore, after Wen Du carried Xiao Ruen into the mansion, some men in Shangrou City jokingly said that there was a beauty flower in the Wen Mansion that could make Prime Minister Wen Cheng reverse his mind and forget Jun En.
The more the gentlemen who boasted of their lofty and elegant talk about such anecdotes in the literary house, the more worthless Xu became.
A dignified wife, a dignified daughter of the Xu family, is not as favored as a concubine in the mansion.
Xu's limelight has been snatched away by Aunt Xiao again and again, it is simply a shame, for Aunt Xiao, Xu's heart only has hatred, this kind of hatred is from dissatisfaction to resentment, accumulated little by little, the so-called frozen three feet, not a day's cold.
Before she got married, Xu Huimin could be regarded as a boudoir Qiongxiu, and she was looking forward to her future beloved, and in the boudoir, there were also many powerful daughters of the Xu Mansion who had friends with her.
At that time, Xu Huimin and the daughters of those powerful people interacted with each other, and what they talked about with each other was nothing more than some boudoir things, and after she got married, she would associate with those old acquaintances, and everyone envied her for marrying a man like Wen Dui.
Later, Wen Du Na Xiao entered the mansion, and rumors spread all over Shangrou City, even if no one said it openly, secretly, some people kept saying this.
She had the old tea party and poetry party with those old acquaintances, and she never saw the envy in the eyes of the old acquaintances again.
Not only has I never seen envy, at the poetry party, there were still people talking behind her back that she didn't know how to win her husband's heart, and she would be suppressed by the concubine.
In the past, she boasted that she was married to Wen Dui, but now, these people are talking about her behind their backs, and they deliberately pretend to talk about it secretly, but they are afraid that she will not hear it, and they will deliberately raise their voices to tell her.
Hearing the anger in her chest all the way, I can't wait to jump into her throat, scolding at these old acquaintances who are smiling on the surface and a knife inside.
She has always been pampered and respected, but she was so angry at the banquet that she was so angry that she was almost passed without a breath.
When she returned to Wenfu, she had to pretend to be generous and pretend to be dignified in charge of Mingxin Xiaozhu, and at that time, she had only miscarried for less than five months.
As long as I saw Xiao's, those rumors in Shangroucheng, as if they had grown feet, ran to Xu's ears along everyone's mouth, laughing at her for being incompetent, being pampered by the concubine, laughing at her for her bad life, miscarriage, all kinds of behind-the-scenes discussions, seducing her angry, the anger seemed to climb along the chest cavity to the arm, crawling to the arm, the arm was an angry arm, seeing Aunt Xiao who came to ask for peace, low eyebrows and pleasing eyes, the angry arm, I couldn't wait to immediately raise it and slap Aunt Xiao a loud slap.
However, she couldn't do it, she always cared about fame and Wen Dui's eyes.
She didn't dare to really hit Aunt Xiao, so she had no choice but to bury all her anger, all her unwillingness, and resentment in her heart, and she could count how many times she accumulated resentment in her heart every day, and every time she accumulated, the hatred in her body was more, and every time she had more, she felt that there was a gloomy snake in her body, which would pounce out at any time and bite Aunt Xiao hard.
Her resentment was all prostrate and curled up, hidden in the depths, hidden in her meticulous care for Aunt Xiao, and hidden in her smile that she took the initiative to invite Aunt Xiao to drink after she deliberately asked Xu Fu to snub Aunt Xiao.
Later, Wen Du married another concubine, and her resentment was even more, not a gloomy snake, but a multi-headed snake.
She became scheming and calculating, she used discord to successfully provoke Ruan and Xiao, and also made Ruan a restless, jealous woman who loves to bully Xiao, and she just took the opportunity to detain Ruan, making Ruan's illness worse, and Aunt Liu was also calculated by her many times.
She became more and more calm, and gradually, as time went by, there were people outside the mansion who praised her as a kind lady who could accommodate several side rooms in the mansion.
Listening to these compliments, she was like a multi-headed snake spitting letters, brewing venom while preparing to attack, thinking about how to make the attack leak, and on the other hand, preparing to win the praise of others.
After such a day, I don't know how long it has been, she feels that she who is innocent and will enjoy the envious and jealous eyes of others at the poetry and drinking party, is gone.
In the middle of the night, she put her hand on her heart, or stroked her hand everywhere, just to touch, the former boudoir lady Xu Huimin is still not there!
When she was alone in the empty room, the maid came to report that the old man stayed in Mingxin Xiaozhu, the old man stayed in Yingyue Pavilion, and the old man stayed in Qinyin Pavilion, and her heart would be painful.
Then, under the flickering light, with my eyes closed, I felt that there was an indescribable taste in my heart, cold, lonely, sluggish, tormented, hateful, and hateful in sight.
She knew that Xu Huimin, the lady of the boudoir, disappeared from Wen Dui's favored concubine room again and again.
This feeling is uncomfortable, but after more than ten years, she is familiar with it, as if she has a calloon on her hand, it will hurt at first, and after a long time, it will not hurt.
For government affairs, she became proficient, and after she had a good reputation for tolerating the side room, she fought wine and recited poetry with her old acquaintances at the poetry party.
