Chapter 237: The Way of a Concubine

Where is this to prevent thieves, it is simply to dig a pit, whoever will dig a four-foot ditch in his house, even if he does not drown, he will fall to his death. I was afraid that I would not die thoroughly enough, and I actually had to lay pebbles, and the sentence "pick a little sharper" made Xu Zixiang vaguely feel that Shaohua was not digging a pit, it was digging a grave at all.

Xu Xinru's face was not much better, it was obvious that this was said for her. The wall of the Marquis of Xingyong is not short, but the west side was originally a forest, and later a lot of trees were shoveled, but the gentle slope is still left. As long as you have a little skill, it is not difficult to take advantage of the situation to turn out, but it is not easy to turn in from the outside, and the height inside and outside the wall is different.

The expressions of the brothers and sisters of the Xu family made Shaohua feel very happy, and she smiled and said: "It's good that Xu Langjun can be considerate, Hou Ye is not at home on weekdays, and we are the female dependents in the house, if anyone makes any accidents, Hou Ye can't hang up outside." ”

A few polite words made Xu Zixiang have nowhere to respond, and he didn't know how to cut in for a while.

Xu Xinru remembered the gentle explanation, calmed down, and knelt in front of Shaohua in front of Xu Zixiang: "Madam, the concubine knows that she is wrong, she shouldn't sneak out, please punish Mrs." ”

Of course, the most surprising thing would not be Shaohua, she just felt that Xu Xinru was a little eager to cover up like this. But in Xu Zixiang's opinion, it is already a great thing to make Xu Xinru take the initiative to bow her head.

But no one could guess that Xu Xin hoped that Shaohua would be angry at such a moment, rather than talking so lightly.

Shaohua seemed to see through her thoughts, and she couldn't deviate from her way, she waved her hand and motioned for Xu Xinru to get up, "If you want to stop fighting, you should keep it and let Hou Ye deal with it." ”

Xu Xinru shook her head excitedly, her voice was sincere and earnest, and she almost cut her heart to show her sincerity.

"Madam, the concubine voluntarily asks for punishment and begs Mrs. to fulfill it."

Rou Wan said that Shaohua had better be willing to fight, no matter whether it was light or heavy, Rao was Yan Kai's iron heart, and he should go over to see her. The only way for Xu Xinru to bring down Shaohua was to overthrow the image she had established in Yan Kai's heart, and Xu Xinru stood opposite her.

The most inevitable thing for a man is to be confused by the pitiful image of Chu Chu, even if he knows that she is like a snake and scorpion, but the most invincible is the tenderness in front of him.

In order to describe Xu Xinru more appropriately, Rouwan took a lot of effort, and when Xu Xinru got it, she drank three glasses of water to relieve the discomfort in her throat.

Shaohua paused for a moment, feeling funny in his heart, this is not like Xu Xinru's style, just take the initiative to admit his mistakes, and take the initiative to ask for punishment. Either the skin is itchy, or the brain is broken when climbing over the wall. She looked at Xu Xinru's sincerity and couldn't help but chuckle. "Aunt Xu, your words are reversed, you told me in front of your brother that you were going to be punished, do you want me to punish or not."

She deliberately glanced at Xu Zixiang, and saw that his eyes were slightly drooping, and his focus fell on the ground not far away, as if he was listening, and more like he was pretending to be stupid.

Shaohua sighed heavily, showing a very embarrassed look, "I don't punish you, I can't justify my identity as a hostess, if I punish you, people will know that I am not strict in housekeeping, and even a concubine dares to escape over the wall." It's really a dilemma for me, so let Master Hou decide. ”

In front of her mother's family, no matter what she said, she couldn't punish Xu Xinru heavily, but let her let Xu Xinru go over so easily, Shaohua was not happy.

But Xu Xinru could say almost anything in order to let Shaohua make a move, "Madam, you are the virtuous helper of the Hou Ye, and you should decide all the big and small matters in the family, how can you bother the Hou Ye." Please punish Madame. Xu Zixiang really wanted to pretend not to know this person at the moment, so he tilted his head to the side slightly, but saw Shui Ling hiding at the door. Seeing that her eyes were red and she wanted to cry, Xu Zixiang was suddenly shocked in her heart and almost walked out.

Xu Zixiang's behavior did not escape Shaohua's eyes, she was curious about him from the beginning, and when she caught a glimpse of Shui Ling's figure at the door, as well as Xu Zixiang's attitude, Shaohua had an idea in her heart.

Shaohua coughed deliberately, pulled back Xu Zixiang's attention, and said to Xu Xinru: "I know that you resent me in your heart, I also persuaded you early in the morning, after toasting tea, you have to obey the rules of the strict family, even if your mother's family is a relative of the emperor, I will never tolerate it." Fang just read that Xu Langjun personally came to ask for the guilt, and I won't care about you. But now that you're asking me to punish you, did you do it on purpose? ”

Xu Xinru was speechless, rolled her eyes, and hesitated how to respond.

Xu Zixiang took a deep breath and made a statement, "Mrs. Hou, in your eyes, the sister has no such intention. She has been pampered excessively since she was a child, and she is a little unrestrained, as the same lady said, now the sister is a strict family, so she naturally has to follow the rules of the strict family. Mrs. does not have to taboo the Xu family, she should be beaten and scolded and let Mrs. deal with it. ”

Shaohua immediately made a sudden realization, that is to say, as long as they don't kill him, they can't control how to ravage Xu Xinru.

If she said this earlier, she wouldn't have had to go around in circles like this.

Shaohua immediately smiled, "Since that's the case, let's go back and copy the Buddhist scriptures." Chuhe, send Aunt Xu back. The brothers and sisters of the Xu family obviously didn't expect to go around in such a big circle, Shaohua actually punished Xu Xinru for copying scriptures, it was Xu Xinru who was deflated, and it was Xu Zixiang who was glad.

As early as when he was talking to Shaohua, Xu Zixiang didn't have any hope for his sister's struggle, after all, he was already a married lady, and he couldn't help it, just thinking that maybe this would be a good thing for Xu Xinru.

Xu Xinru was dragged down by Chuhe, and Shao Huashun ordered Xu Zixiang to evict the guest, "Xu Langjun, the Hou Ye is not in the house, I don't want to stay with you for a long time, it's better to let Shui Ling send you out." ”

Hearing Shui Ling, Xu Zixiang couldn't care about Xu Xinru's eager eyes for help, and immediately hugged his fist at Shaohua. "Thank you, ma'am."

Seeing the second brother walking towards the water spirit at the door with a look of being seduced, Xu Xinru gritted her teeth and felt resentful in her heart.

Xu Zixiang couldn't guess whether Shaohua knew the relationship between him and Shui Ling, but he was finally able to see his sweetheart, and Xu Zixiang didn't think so much about it for a while. Looking at the figure walking in front of Xiao Xiaobu, he vaguely felt that she had lost a lot of weight, Xu Zixiang stepped forward quickly, took her hand, met her stunned, and whispered: "Shui Ling, let you be wronged." ”

Shui Ling smiled, but there was a lot of sadness hidden in her eyes, "What did the second master say, eat and drink well here, what is there to be wronged." ”

Xu Zixiang naturally knew that Shui Ling was talking back, when she cried and knelt in front of him and begged not to be Xu Xinru's companion, her body and mind were already Xu Zixiang's people, if she went to the Xingyong Marquis Mansion, she didn't know if she could be with Xu Zixiang again in this life. But Xu Zixiang could only close his eyes and shake his head, telling her that he couldn't do anything, and at that moment, Shui Ling was almost killed by a head.

The man she has loved for so long didn't even say a word of comfort at this time, only said her helplessness. Shui Ling's heart was sour and bitter, and he even felt that he was a little ridiculous, hoping for a concubine who had no right to speak at all, but he was willing to daydream of giving birth to children for him.

Xu Zixiang didn't like the smile on her face, which made him feel alienated, he pressed Shui Ling's shoulder, and said seriously: "I know you complain about me, but I am also forced, don't worry, when Dad and they enter Beijing, I will find a way to take you out, and ...... when the time comes" Who knows, Shui Ling suddenly waved his hand to block his hand, Xu Zixiang suddenly threw himself into the air, and almost pounced forward.

After he stood still, he looked at the slight embarrassment on Shui Ling's face in disbelief, and the atmosphere suddenly became solemn.

"Let's talk about it then, the second master is leaving, I can't send it far." Shui Ling owed him a debt, ignored his surprise, turned and left.

"Water Spirit!" Xu Zixiang shouted, but Shui Ling's footsteps were faster, and he ran out of his sight after a while. The first time Shui Ling refused so directly, Xu Zixiang felt very frustrated and irritable in his heart, paused for a moment, and turned to leave.

At this moment, Youhan, who got the news, was in a hurry to run back and return to the main house, and Chu He happened to report Xu Xinru's placement to Shaohua.

Youhan looked like a cat that had tasted fishy, and she was very excited, "Madam, as you expected, there seems to be something greasy between Shui Ling and Xu Erlang." When Shaohua asked her to secretly follow Shui Ling out, she also felt that Shaohua was making a fuss, what could a house slave have to do with the old master, even if Shui Ling was more delicate and lovely, how could she conclude the relationship between her and Xu Zixiang.

But what she chased out and witnessed confirmed Shaohua's thoughts, "Did you hear what they said?" ”

Youhan drooped her head, looking a little annoyed, "No, I didn't hear anything, that Shui Ling seemed to know that I was following her, and she came back before she was halfway there." ”

I don't know if it's because her goal is too obvious, or if Shui Ling is too sensitive, if it weren't for Xu Zixiang's last impulse, with Shui Ling's deliberate distance when he walked out all the way, and his attitude of talking to Xu Zixiang, Youhan really didn't think they had anything to do with it.

But if Shui Ling has a great relationship with Xu Zixiang, how could he follow Xu Xinru into the Yan family.

"She is much more sensible than Aunt Xu." Hatsuha listened and nodded.

Xu Xinru began to go crazy as soon as she returned to her small courtyard, but fortunately, Shaohua had told Chu He in advance: if she dared to cause trouble, tell her and let Xu Zixiang take her back, Xu Xinru quieted down.

Youhan also has a deep understanding of this: "If she is an aunt, Mrs. will be more at ease." ”

Shaohua smiled, "If she becomes an aunt, I will be even more uneasy." ”

Not to mention Shui Ling's unclear identity, even if she is clean, with her cleverness, Shaohua feels that her head is big. If Shui Ling is Yan Kaizhi's concubine, she has to feel uneasy, and it is difficult to say when someone who can endure and bow her head will pry someone away.

At the same time, Mrs. Yan also learned about Xu Xinru in the house, and Mrs. Yan was noncommittal about Shaohua's actions.

On the contrary, the Lin family felt that Shaohua was too soft-hearted, "Mrs. Tai, I don't think this lady is like a master of the family, and she can't even deal with a concubine." ”

Mrs. Yan raised her eyebrows and smiled lightly, "Then what do you think should be done to be in charge?" ”

Lin replied as a matter of course: "Since she is a concubine and has made a mistake, she should be beaten and punished, and it must not be tolerated, otherwise it will only cause more trouble next time." ”

Mrs. Yan shook her head and asked rhetorically, "What do you think Madam is most afraid of now?" ”

The Lin family is stuck, and "Madame's most feared thing...... "fall out of favor"? Childless? But it doesn't hold true for her.

Mrs. Yan sighed, "She watches Kaizhi closely, even if she is pregnant, she serves Kaizhi's daily life by herself, and she never leaves it behind." As long as she can continue the Yan family, I, as a mother, will not block them. Seeing that the Lin family was somewhat clear, Mrs. Yan said again: "She just doesn't want to give the Xu family any excuse to see Kaizhi, so it's okay, and I have a lot less trouble." ”

Lin only then understood, and said that Shaohua is now considerate and obedient to Yan Kaizhi, and she thought that she had a child, and she was finally qualified. Now it seems that the heart of this housewife is really wide, and Xu Xinru has to suffer when she enters this door.

Mrs. Yan read a scripture and suddenly stopped, "You arrange a time for Zhaocheng to come in, don't touch Hou Ye." ”
