At this moment, two men outside the gate of the silk village are scrubbing the dust on a plaque with the words "Xu Ji Silk Village" written on it above the main gate of the village.

One of them was responsible for handing the rag underneath, and the other was responsible for stepping on the ladder to scrub the plaque.

And the person who is scrubbing the plaque is Lin Zhongyi, who opened the door for Xu Yuexiao in the silk last night, and everyone here is used to calling him Brother Zhongyi.

The guy standing next to Lin Zhongyi cleaning the rag was a newcomer named Fang Zeqing. Don't look at the few days after he arrived in the silk village, he admired Lin Zhongyi, a very talented and wealthy expert.

Although Fang Zeqing usually looks dull, he is very devout and studious, and always likes to humbly ask others for advice.

"Hey, Brother Zhongyi, I heard that the eldest lady went to Steward Xu last night, and it is said that you were on duty last night, is there such a thing?" Fang Zeqing asked suddenly.

"Shh......h What are the children asking about, aren't they afraid of getting into trouble? Lin Zhongyi reminded him in a whisper.

I only heard Fang Zeqing muttering: "Who is little wow, I'm twenty-eight years old, okay?" "I thought, Brother Zhongyi is too fussful, right?

When he was young, Fang Zeqing said again: "I really didn't say it, don't look at me for a few days, but I really can't get used to the eldest lady!" ”

"Alas, I've seen a lot of people like her." Lin Zhongyi said without looking back while scrubbing the plaque.

"Huh? An ass in a lion's skin? Hey, Brother Zhongyi, what is the color of the inside? Fang Zeqing asked.

Hearing Fang Zeqing's question, Lin Zhongyi was stunned, in fact, he didn't know very well what the specific meaning of the idiom was He just listened to what others said, and then parroted his own words. But since Fang Zeqing asked so, Lin Zhongyi couldn't make a fool of himself in front of him.

So Lin Zhongyi said hesitantly: "Uh, this...... It means to say...... Belch...... In other words...... A woman who looks beautiful on the outside, she is often very powerful, and if you want to marry her, you will have to endure her torture every day. Well, right! That's it. ”

"Oh, I see! In other words, beautiful women are often very powerful, aren't they? Can I understand it that way? After listening to Lin Zhongyi's divine explanation, Fang Zeqing seemed to suddenly have an enlightenment.

This Lin Zhongyi just likes to pretend to understand and mislead people's children, if he explains it like that, this "lust is strong and inward" will not become "lust and forbearance"?

I only heard Lin Zhongyi say: "Well, you can think so." But not necessarily, after all, you can't generalize about everything. ”

"Well, that's right. However, Brother Zhongyi, in my opinion, the eldest lady and the second miss seem to be very beautiful, so is the second miss also very beautiful? ”

After hearing this, Lin Zhongyi retorted: "Oh, that's different! Well-let me tell you this, the beauty of the eldest lady is called 'demon', and the beauty of the second lady is called 'Jiao'. Don't look at the difference between the two, there is a world of difference between the two! ”

The two patronized and chatted, but they didn't know that Xu Yuexiao was already standing behind the two.

I only heard Xu Yuexiao pinching her waist and shouting loudly: "Who are you talking about!" ”

When Lin Zhongyi heard that it was Xu Yuexiao, he was so frightened that he fell off the ladder and injured his waist. But Xu Yuexiao didn't even look at it, and directly swaggered into the silk village.

At this time, Xu Ziyan came over to help Lin Zhongyi up, and asked with concern, "How are you?" It doesn't matter, right? Do you need to go to the doctor? ”

Lin Zhongyi hurriedly thanked: "No, no, thank you for your concern!" Xu Ziyan told Fang Zeqing to take good care of him, and then he also entered the silk village.

Fang Zeqing looked at Xu Ziyan's back as she gradually moved away, and exclaimed: "Oops! It's really different! ”

After Song Wanting came to the backyard of the silk village, she found Xu Sicong, who was feeding the horses next to the stable, and gave Xu Sicong a big slap in front of everyone.

"I'll tell you your surname is Xu, if you don't know what to do again, you don't want to be this housekeeper, get out of me as soon as possible!" Song Wanting warned viciously.

Xu Sicong didn't say anything after being beaten, he just silently endured this sudden misfortune. And Song Wanting's move was unexpected by everyone present, including Xu Yuexiao, of course. After Xu Yuexiao found Song Wanting last night, her mother just said that she would make decisions for her this morning, but she didn't expect Song Wanting to be so concise and clear. This slap not only hit Xu Sicong in the face, but also Song Wanting gave Xu Ziyan a dismount. so that she knows that the Xu family is still Song Wanting's world, and her status is still the same, and no one can shake it.

Perhaps, Xu Ziyan really doesn't need to be unbearable with these people anymore. For those who deserve our help and love, even if they occasionally do something seemingly unkind to us, they should be forgiven. Because their essence is not bad, but they have temporarily lost themselves because of certain factors. But for those who are accustomed to doing evil in their bones, who do not know anything about propriety, righteousness and shame, and who have put on a human skin in vain, but often do some despicable acts that even those beasts despise people, they do not deserve and deserve any sympathy and forgiveness. If we repeatedly indulge and tolerate these people, it is not just as simple as being too kind, but also tolerating and nurturing adultery, aiding and abetting abuse, and risking the condemnation of the world!

All in all, although life requires tolerance and patience, it also depends on who it is.

The end will end, just as the end will begin, and no one can stop it.

At the beginning of April 727 AD, Xu Ziyan came to the silk village alone to find Xu Sicong, and wanted to leave the Xu family after handing over all the matters of the village to Xu Sicong. Unexpectedly, Xu Sicong immediately said that he didn't want to stay here anymore, and only then did Xu Ziyan learn from Xu Sicong's mouth the real reason why he was beaten the day before yesterday, and this also strengthened Xu Ziyan's determination to leave the Xu family completely.

Because Xu Sicong insisted on leaving this place, it was inconvenient for Xu Ziyan to keep more. But because Xu Sicong had nowhere to go after leaving, and Xu Ziyan couldn't bear to see him return to despair after losing his job, she decided to give Sui Yuan a letter to Xiu, hoping that he could kindly take in Xu Sicong in his past friendship with his ancestors.

Before leaving, Xu Sicong did not ask Xu Ziyan for any gold and silver treasures, he only wanted to get the coveted brown and yellow horse in the backyard.

In the stables in the backyard of the silk village, there are a few horses for emergencies, and among them is the horse that Xu Sicong likes. Xu Sicong doesn't have any special hobbies in his life, but he only has a soft spot for horses. Although he is not good at riding, he has a unique insight into the appreciation and recognition of good horses.

Xu Sicong thought at first that Xu Ziyan would not easily agree to this matter, but who expected that the result was the opposite. Because with Xu Sicong's impressive performance in the past few days, he is already worthy of this horse. Besides, it is much better for a good horse to meet a discerning Bole in his lifetime than for the rest of his life to be buried in that dark stable.

After Xu Ziyan returned home, she wanted to quietly leave this sad place that had completely disappointed her, but because Yulu had been with her for many years, neither of them wanted to be separated from her, so they left the Xu family together after some discussion.

At the same time, Xu Sicong, who had gone through several twists and turns, finally found the location of the Sui Mansion in Yanshi County according to the address given by Xu Ziyan.

The kind-hearted Sui Yuanwai not only arranged a place for Xu Sicong in the house, but also made Xu Sicong serve as the account office in the mansion for the first time, which shows that Sui Yuanwai is quite serious about the person recommended by Xu Ziyan. At this time, Xu Sicong finally settled down, and a hanging heart could be temporarily put down.

On the other hand, Xu Ziyan, who wanted to leave Luoyang City, couldn't bear to leave her homeland, so she and Yulu came to the north of Luoyang City to make another living, so that she could stay away from those past merits and demerits to the greatest extent without having to stay away from her hometown.

After wandering for several days, the two finally settled in an inn in the north of the city.

The kind-hearted innkeeper saw that the two of them had a rough life and had nowhere to go, so he cleaned up a hut in the backyard of the inn for the two to live in for free, and allowed the two to get the corresponding remuneration to make ends meet by doing chores here.

Life here is relatively simple, but it is very happy and leisurely. After all, compared with the previous Xu family, there are too many less rights and wrongs in the world.

At this point, the lives of Xu Ziyan and others can be regarded as settled. But on the other hand, the Xu family is not so lucky, and it can even be described as miserable. Xu Ziyan and Xu Sicong suddenly said goodbye at the same time without warning, causing the Xu family to suddenly lose its two pillars, and since then this place has been completely chaotic.

Since then, the Xu family has also undergone earth-shaking changes under the continuous drive and persecution of the interests of all parties.

Song Wanting and Wang Ruxue divided the property of the Xu family equally, Song Wanting and Xu Yuexiao continued to live in the ancestral house of the Xu family, but the entire silk village was owned by Wang Ruxue.

A few days later, Wang Ruxue moved out of the Xu family as scheduled as previously agreed, and then lived in the silk village.
