Mrs. Xu pulled Wen Zhu to the living room of Meiyuan to sit down, Xu Xiuniang was also resentful, and said angrily: "I have suffered from this foot-binding since I was a child, and I don't want Ju'er to be like me, let her go since she was a child, and your sisters have not bound their feet, but I didn't expect that it would be difficult to escape today." After that, he lifted the skirt lightly, and it was a pair of three-inch golden lotuses.

Mrs. Xu frowned slightly, and said: "I thought that it would be normal for the Xu Mansion to come out of the Xu Mansion and teach harshly, so I specially sent some maids and daughters-in-law to prevent your sisters from being naughty, but they became tigers." ”

Wen Zhu sighed, and already understood in her heart, because she was a nurturing grandmother from the Xu Mansion, Mrs. Xu let her do it with confidence, thinking that she was just teaching some rules, but she didn't expect that she saw that several young ladies in the Wen Mansion were not bound to their feet, so she made her own opinion.

This mother-in-law was also a good intention, but at this time, the wind of foot binding had not yet prevailed, and it was only circulated in some top powerful families, and it faintly became a status symbol.

As he was talking, he got the news and read his daughter's article and came in with a smile, and when he saw that Mrs. Xu was also there, the smile on his face became more and more kind, and he turned his head and ordered the Wen Fu family to bring the mother-in-law up.

The wound on the woman's face has not yet been treated, it is red and swollen, and it looks very terrible, the article ordered someone to loosen the binding and look at the seat, ordered the subordinate to send a cup of hot tea, and called the doctor to treat her, and said softly: "My daughter is not very sensible, so my grandmother is frightened." ”

The mother-in-law's mood was a little settled, and the grievances in her heart gradually arose, and she said dissatisfiedly: "The old woman can't afford the master's courtesy, thinking about the three-inch golden lotus, how many women dream of it, your young lady in Wenfu really doesn't know what to do." He grinned as he spoke, and it seemed that Wen Zhu's feet were not lightly stepped on.

The article nodded again and again very cooperatively, a pair of narrow phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, and said softly: "Since it is a dream, I will fulfill Mama." ”

With a wave of his hand, the Wen Fu family immediately moved all the items needed to wrap the little feet, and there were three or five strong servants who held down the woman, and the Wen Fu family stuffed a piece of footcloth into her mouth, and the woman's feet were suddenly pressed into the potion for soaking the feet, and the white mist on the potion was continuous, but it was a newly opened boiling water, and I saw that the mother-in-law's pupils were dilated instantly, and she struggled desperately.

After a while, her feet were already as miserable as her face, and the article kept looking at it with a smile, Wen Zhu's heart was beating in shock, and Mrs. Xu closed her eyes, and her mouth kept chanting Amitabha.

Then, several servants worked together to wrap the woman's pair of heavenly feet into a three-inch golden lotus, and the woman's ten toes were probably broken.

The article took out a jade pendant from his sleeve, threw it on her, and said lightly: "Please also ask Mama to give me a word, the ninth-rate businessmen in our family are not worthy of the royal relatives of the Xu Mansion, this marriage, forget it." ”

Mrs. Xu on the side opened her eyes suddenly, looked at the article, and the article smiled at her, her face was like a spring breeze, but the tone in her mouth was undoubted: "It's different for a lady to marry and a daughter to marry." ”

Mrs. Xu stared at him deeply for a long time, and nodded slowly, the mother-in-law's mouth had been released, but she was so frightened that she didn't dare to speak, a pair of feet were ruined, if the young master of her own family was repented, the Xu Mansion would definitely have no place for herself.

She whimpered and knelt on the ground, kept kowtowing, Wen Zhu sighed lightly, quite pity her, the article is afraid that she regretted her marriage early, but it was just a matter of venting it out by hair, Wen Ju's kind of personality is really not suitable for marrying into a big family, especially the Xu Mansion, where the rules are a few points more than the royal family.

Seeing that the multi-day rush was immediately effective, Xu Qiyuan was in a good mood today, humming a little song all the way into the house, but seeing his father and mother gathered in the living room, the two of them looked nervous, their four hands were stacked together tremblingly, looking at him tremblingly, and his heart couldn't help but sink.

Master Xu and Mrs. An passed the buck to each other for a long time, no one dared to be this wicked person, Xu Qiyuan was angry, and said angrily: "One person is okay, Dad, you say it first." ”

Looking at his old wife's gloating expression, Master Xu crossed his neck and said, "Today, at your aunt's request, I sent Aunt Bian, the best upbringing in the house, to teach your cousin." ”

After saying that, Master Xu looked at his old wife proudly, but heard An Shi say: "So, Aunt Bian dressed up and went out early in the morning." ”

Old Man Xu's heart was blocked, and he glanced at his wife dissatisfied, and then said: "Aunt Bian didn't stop and arrived at Wenfu early. ”

Xu Qiyuan watched his father's performance for a long time, and gradually felt impatient in his heart, and said lightly: "Aunt Bian still wants to greet her aunt when she arrives at Wenfu, gossip about some homely things, and then bathe and change clothes ......." Seeing that his father and mother nodded again and again, he couldn't help but get up and said angrily: "Hurry up and tell me the point." ”

An Shi bit his lip, pinched Master Xu fiercely, and said, "Several other young ladies in the Wen Mansion were also brought by your aunt to learn the rules. ”

Master Xu gritted his teeth and said with an open expression: "Aunt Bian saw that none of the ladies of the Wen family had bound their feet, so she took matters into her own hands, and as a result, she injured the feet of several young ladies. ”

Xu Qiyuan was silent for a long time, and said lightly: "Since Aunt Bian likes to bind her feet so much, she will wrap her feet and send them to the Wen Mansion." ”

But I saw that my father kept poking the old lady, muttering: "I'm halfway there, it's time for you to say, it's time for you to speak."

Xu Qiyuan frowned, and asked gloomily, "What else is there to hide from me?" ”

An Shi pursed her mouth and raised her head high, profoundly showing her unyielding attitude. Master Xu was stared at by his son's eagle eyes, lowered his head, and buzzed like a mosquito: "The Wen Mansion wants to withdraw from the family." When it came to the last three words, even he couldn't really hear them.

Xu Qiyuan's face changed greatly, and he stood up suddenly, his eyes were urgent, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Say it again." ”

Master Xu was so frightened that he hid behind his old wife, An Shi coughed, and said softly: "Son, your uncle returned the love token you gave to the cousin of the Wen family when you were a child. ”

After saying that, he took out a jade pendant from his sleeve and handed it over.

Xu Qiyuan snatched it, the blue tendons on his face protruded, he stood for a moment, and without saying a word, he walked outside the mansion and shouted: "Prepare the car, young master, I want to go to the Wenfu." ”

Holding the jade pendant tightly, Xu Qiyuan sat in the carriage, thinking of the girl's smile, the pride that penetrated into his bones, and he had a lot of thoughts for a while.

When I was a child, Mrs. Wen was still alive, my uncle was not a businessman, the two families were quite close, An's often took the young Xu Qiyuan to Wenfu as a guest, at that time, Wen Ju was still a little baby fat, a pleasing apple face, a smile and two deep dimples, the appearance is not the most outstanding among the sisters, but it is the most cute.

Xu Qiyuan lay on his back, with a bitter face, and muttered: "Childhood sweetheart, two little ones have no guesses."
