Chapter 441 - 441 Fear
Chapter 441: Chapter 441 Fear
I was too conceited, thinking that I could see through the depth of the mistress of the Xu family by chatting for a while...
However, she is really powerful. If I hadn't asked about the other people in the Xu family, I would have been deceived by her appearance...
Wang Simu was as if facing a great enemy. She was proficient in the skills of house fighting and knew that real masters never showed their fangs. Those women who were so proud of themselves because of their favor and wanted to write arrogance on their faces, they have no means themselves, but rely on pleasing men.
But when the favor is gone, they will quickly collapse and lose the opportunity to make a comeback.
Those who know how to disguise themselves are the real masters. And the disguise of the mistress of the Xu family deceived even my own eyes.
In comparison, the younger sister of the Xu family around her is really much worse than her mother.
At least I knew that she was a woman with means and scheming through the incident at the poetry meeting that day.
"I am more and more curious about her. What means did she use to make the unruly Xu Yinluo move away silently? Moreover, after Xu Yinluo became rich, she did not abandon this family and still respected her..."
Wang Simu was daunted and curious at the same time.
Her mentality was just like Huaiqing seeing a military book, eager to learn.
Wang Simu came to Xu's house today for three purposes: First, to test the depth of the mistress of the Xu family. Second, to see the foundation of the Xu family, including the house, financial resources, and various supporting facilities.
Third, to have a preliminary understanding of the personalities and hobbies of the members of the Xu family to ensure who to win over and who to suppress in the future.
For a woman, this is the information and things that must be mastered. In the future, if she really marries Erlang, she will move in.
She has gradually judged the depth of the mistress of the Xu family - unfathomable!
Now, she plans to take the opportunity to see the foundation of the Xu family.
The two chatted and walked around the Xu family mansion. After this tour, Wang Simu was quite satisfied with the mansion. Even if he lived here in the future, he would not feel shabby.
The only problem is.......
"The guards in the mansion seem to be a little less." Wang Simu pretended to be nonchalant.
"Because neither my father nor my elder brother and second brother have many trusted subordinates. So only hired followers, no guards." Xu Lingyue explained.
Wang Simu nodded slightly. The guards who guard the house must be trusted, otherwise it is easy to commit embezzlement. Moreover, the male owner cannot be in the mansion all the time. If the female relatives in the mansion are beautiful, it is even more dangerous.
In this case, the defense force is a little weaker........ Wang Simu frowned secretly. Although she could bring the guards of her own mansion, this behavior is both an unstable factor and a provocation to her husband's family.
Xu Lingyue sighed, "The Xu family has a shallow foundation, and there's nothing we can do about it."
As she spoke, she glanced at Miss Wang calmly, and seeing that she was indeed frowning slightly, Xu Lingyue smiled.
At this time, they passed by Xu Lingyue's boudoir, and Wang Simu took a look and was suddenly stunned. She saw an unexpected person - the Holy Maiden of Tianzong!
Why was she in the Xu Mansion? How could she be in the Xu Mansion? !
Confused, Wang Simu bowed gracefully and said softly, "Meet the Holy Maiden."
Li Miaozhen also noticed this little mistress of Xu Erlang, nodded, and responded indifferently, "Miss Wang."
As the Holy Maiden of Tianzong and the Flying Swallow Heroine, Li Miaozhen's style is still very high. Such an attitude is not impolite, but rather echoes his style as a martial arts master and a generation of female heroes.
Wang Simu took the opportunity to enter the house and glanced at Su Su who was doing needlework with her head down. She was extremely surprised. The beauty of this woman in white dress simply made her feel amazing.
In addition to Li Miaozhen... the Xu family has so many stunning beauties.
Wang Simu was secretly shocked, but she remained calm on the surface and even smiled: "The saint is also visiting the mansion?"
Li Miaozhen shook her head: "No, I have been staying at the Xu mansion for several months."
She has been staying at the Xu mansion for several months... Is she a guest of the Xu mansion? Wang Simu suddenly realized that it was no wonder that the Xu mansion did not need guards. Of course not.
There was the girl with amazing physical strength from the Nanjiang Gu tribe, the saint Li Miaozhen from the Tianzong, the centurion Xu Pingzhi from the Imperial Sword Guard, and Xu Yinluo who overpowered the Tianren and Tianzong.
Even her palace did not have such high-end combat power, so why did she need ordinary guards?
"Although the Xu family has little background in the officialdom, in some aspects of the martial arts world, it has a deep and frightening background..." Wang Simu thought to herself. She was satisfied with the guard.
She looked at Su Su and smiled, "This sister is..."
Li Miaozhen said lightly, "Her name is Su Su, she is my sister."
In front of outsiders, she would not say that Su Su was a maid.
"Hello, Miss Su Su." Wang Simu greeted enthusiastically, "Miss Su Su is really skilled in needlework, much better than me."
Su Su smiled and said, "I have a bad family background. Even if I get married in the future, I will only be someone's concubine, and I will have to work. I envy Miss Wang. You are born noble, and you don't have to touch the water of the spring spring."
Here it comes...... Xu Lingyue's eyes lit up, it was worth it for her to bring Wang Simu here.
This Miss Su Su seemed to be quite hostile to me, but I clearly met her for the first time! Wang Simu's pupils shrank slightly, and she had a bold guess. This girl named Su Su is in love with Erlang?
She knew she couldn't win against me, so she said something like being a concubine. She relied on the support of the Saint of Tianzong to pierce me with her words...
Wang Simu laughed. This familiar confrontation made her feel like she was back at home, temporarily out of the "shadow" of the mistress of the Xu family.
Miss Wang spoke softly:
"A concubine has her own sufferings, and a mistress has her own fatigues. Sister, don't complain about yourself. But there is a truth in this world that never changes. The higher the position, the higher the ability. So in the final analysis, being a villain or a concubine seems to be the easiest. Right, sister Susu."
Susu was surprised and said, "Really? I think Mrs. Xu lives a very comfortable life, with her husband doting on her and her children being filial. But Miss Wang is born in a wealthy family, so it's naturally different."
This is a clear praise and a hidden criticism... Miss Wang thought to herself.
Li Miaozhen was watching the show on the side. Susu and Miss Wang were talking to each other in a sarcastic way. Both of them were masters of house fighting. Their sharp words were hidden in their laughter.
Their mentality was as steady as an old dog, and there was no anger at all. This would obviously be a protracted war.
Li Miaozhen had never experienced such a thing, so she listened with relish, but she was a little confused. This Wang Simu was Xu Erlang's mistress. Susu was Xu Ningyan's mistress. What were these two people arguing about?
She glanced at Xu Lingyue again. The younger sister of the Xu family had an innocent and gentle face. She sat aside with a smile, as if she didn't understand the confrontation between the two at all.
The weak little sheep is the most dangerous....... Li Miaozhen sighed, and suddenly there was a subtle sound of footsteps on the roof, and she felt it slightly.
She rolled her eyes. Xu Ningyan also came to listen to the show......
This bastard!
Li Miaozhen's eyes turned, thinking that she couldn't let the guy above her be too relaxed because she was adding fuel to the fire. She found an opportunity to insert the topic and said with a smile:
"Speaking of which, Sister Susu's family is miserable. Her parents died many years ago, and she has been dependent on me for life. This time she came to the capital, she won't leave."
A sharp light flashed in Wang Simu's eyes: "Oh? Not leaving?"
This little bitch really wants to be Xu Erlang's concubine? Xu Erlang clearly said that there are no concubines in his family. Ha, there are indeed no concubines, because there is no formal concubine!
Wang Simu's heart suddenly sank.
Li Miaozhen continued: "Susu and Xu Ningyan are in love. I plan to keep Susu in Xu's house. I don't ask for a position as a wife, but a concubine."
Ah! Xu Ningyan's concubine? That's fine.
Wang Simu saw a ray of hope and showed a friendly smile from the heart.
Oh, you and my elder brother are in love... Xu Lingyue's eyes also flashed with a sharp light, and she said with a fake smile:
"Sister Susu hid it very well. I didn't realize that you and my elder brother are in love. It's great. After Miss Fuxiang died, my elder brother has been depressed. Now that Sister Susu is here, I believe my elder brother will gradually become happy."
Are you comparing me to a prostitute... Susu glanced at Xu Lingyue.
Li Miaozhen left after hearing the slight footsteps. Xu Ningyan came quietly and slipped away quietly.
The inexplicable anger burned me. With Lingyue's temper, I'm afraid she would hide a needle in my clothes... No, I can't let my aunt get away with it. I want to see her being beaten. People should have their original intentions... Xu Qian'an strode towards the inner hall with a dark face.
Aunt was carrying a small copper pot, bending over, watering her beloved potted plants.
"Ahem!"
Xu Qian'an coughed, attracting the attention of his aunt, and said:
"Aunt, I just saw Lingyue taking Miss Wang to do needlework. You say she is really something. She is a guest, how can she let her work."
Aunt was anxious when she heard it, "This is not okay. Lingyue is not much smarter than Lingyin. She is too honest and only knows how to work all day. When she gets married in the future, she will not be a maid to her future mother-in-law.
"Miss Wang is the daughter of the Prime Minister. How can you take her to do needlework? I am so angry."
After saying that, the aunt suddenly remembered something and said, "Ning Yan, there seems to be no glass cups at home, only the most ordinary porcelain plates and cups. It's still early for lunch. Can you help aunt buy some back?"
Aunt negotiated kindly: "With a few glass cups, our family is more respectable, right? We can't let Miss Wang see it clearly."
"Okay, aunt, go quickly. "Xu Qian'an urged.
Aunt left quickly.
Come on, aunt, have a safe trip......Looking at the graceful back of aunt, Xu Qian'an smiled.
If I buy a cup, it will take a long time to go back and forth, and then I won't be able to see the miserable end of aunt, who is black iron, inserted into the battle of kings and was beaten by blood.
Xu Qian'an thought about it, took out the small jade mirror, and placed a set of dragon blood glazed jade cups collected in Cao Guogong's private residence on the table.
Then take out the small porcelain jar with dragon and phoenix, and several blue and white porcelain plates, send them to the kitchen, and let the cook use them to serve dishes.
......
On the other side, aunt stepped into her daughter's boudoir in a hurry with small steps.
The atmosphere here is already a little tense, and the three women are secretly competing with each other, just like peerless masters competing with internal strength, stuck in a stalemate, and no one can do anything to anyone.
"Why are you doing needlework for no reason? "
Aunt entered the room and broke the deadlock instantly. The inner strength released by the peerless master was like a receding tide.
"You only know how to do these chores all day long. You are now the eldest daughter of the Xu family. You must have the consciousness corresponding to your status. Do you understand?" Aunt scolded her daughter.
"Mother, I know. "Xu Lingyue lowered her head.
Su Su smiled and called Madam Xu, then she restrained her "claws" and lowered her head to sew her robe.
She suppressed Lingyue and Su Su as soon as she came... Wang Simu saw it and was convinced. When she was at home, her mother said something to her, and she could refute her mother without saying anything.
And when Xu Lingyue and Su Su were in front of the mistress of the Xu family, she saw that they were completely suppressed, and they didn't even talk back.
Auntie was relieved to see that Wang Simu was not doing needlework, and thought that since she was here, she would sit down and chat.
She explained amiably: "It's all my fault. I usually don't bother to take care of the shops and fields outside, and the dividends from the Sitianjian. These are all managed by Lingyue. She is busy every day and has developed a habit. "
Here she comes, she started to criticize me... She meant that if I want to manage the family accounts in the future, I have to get past Xu Lingyue first... Wang Simu thought to himself.
After my aunt came, the room became harmonious.
Xu Qian'an stood on the roof, listening to the meaningless conversations of the women in the room, and couldn't help but admire Wang Simu in his heart.
She suppressed her nature very well, and completely acted herself as a gentle and docile lady, trying to give my aunt and our family the impression that she was harmless. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
As expected of the daughter of the Prime Minister Wang, she has some skills.
........
As lunch was approaching, Aunt took Miss Wang and the women in the family to the inner hall to prepare for dinner.
How good the daily meals were was also one of the criteria for measuring the foundation of the Xu Mansion, but in a place with guests, it was natural that the dishes were rich. So Wang Simu was not looking at the dishes, but the porcelain.
Aunt invited Miss Wang to take a seat. Wang Simu took a look at the dishes on the table. They were all just served and had not been touched. It was just dinner time, and this was the main table. There were obviously men at home, so why did they eat first?
Wang Simu tried, "Why didn't I see Xu Yinluo?"
Aunt waved her hand and said casually, "He is the only man in the mansion. It is inconvenient for him to sit at the same table with you. I asked him to eat in his room. "
.....Wang Simu's heart skipped a beat, and he looked deeply at the mistress of the Xu family, thinking: How are you afraid of her, Xu Yinluo!
At this time, the aunt picked up the jade wine pot and warmly entertained: "This is the sweet wine brewed in the mansion, try it. "
