    Chapter Index

    I really am still too conceited, thinking that after a few moments of casual conversation, I can penetrate the depths of the Xu family’s main mother ………..

    However, she’s really good, if I hadn’t inquired about the rest of the Xu family, I would have been fooled by her appearance ………..

    Wang Simu like a big enemy, proficient in the house fighting skills, she knows that the real masters are never show their fangs. Those who rely on favor will get carried away, hate to write arrogant and domineering women on the face, they themselves have no means, rely on nothing more than to please men.

    But when the favor is gone, they quickly collapse and lose the chance to rise again.

    Those who knew how to disguise themselves were the true masters. And the disguise of the Xu Family’s main mother had even deceived her own pair of fiery eyes.

    Compared to that, the Xu family sister beside her, compared to her mother, was indeed far worse.

    At least he had long known that she was a woman of means and heart through the accident at the poetry meeting that day.

    “I am more and more curious about her, she is through what means, let the unruly Xu Yinluo are tolerant to move away. Moreover, after Xu Yinluo made his fortune, he actually did not leave this family behind and still honored her ……….”

    Wang Simu was scornful while an extremely strong curiosity surged.

    The mentality was like Huaiqing seeing a book of war and wanting to learn it hungrily.

    Wang Simu came to the Xu Mansion today for three purposes: one, to test the depths of the Xu family’s main mother. Secondly, to take a look at the Xu Mansion’s underpinnings, which included the mansion, financial resources, and all aspects of the home furnishings.

    Third, to gain a preliminary understanding of the character and preferences of the members of the Hsu family, so as to ensure who will be drawn in and who will be suppressed in the future.

    For a woman, this was information and things that had to be mastered. In the future, when she is really married to Jiro, she is going to live in it.

    She had a gradual judgment of the depths of the Xu family’s main mother – unfathomable!

    Now, she intended to take the opportunity to take a look at the depths of the Xu Mansion.

    The two chatted and strolled around the Xu family mansion, this trip down, Wang Simu is quite satisfied with the mansion, in the future, even if they live here, they will not feel shabby.

    The only problem is that ……….

    “There seem to be fewer guards in the mansion.” Wang Simu pretended to speak in a careless tone.

    “It’s because neither Father, nor big brother and second brother have many beloved subordinates. That’s why only escorts were hired, no guards.” Xu Lingyue explained.

    Wang Simu nodded slightly, the guards who look after the house must be heart, otherwise it is very easy to do things that are supervised and stolen. Furthermore, it is impossible for the man of the house to be in the house all the time, and it is even more dangerous if the women in the house are as beautiful as flowers.

    In that case, the defense is weaker ……….. Wang Simu secretly frowned, although she could have brought her own royal guards over, this behavior would be both destabilizing and at the same time provocative for her husband’s family.

    Xu Lingyue sighed, “The Xu family’s roots are shallow, so this is something that can’t be helped.”

    Saying that, without moving her eyes, she glanced at Eldest Miss Wang, and seeing that she was indeed frowning slightly, Xu Ling Yue smiled sweetly.

    At this time, they made their way to Xu Ling Yue’s boudoir, and Wang Simu suddenly froze when she took an inadvertent look. She saw an unexpected figure – the Heavenly Sect Holy Maiden!

    Why is she in the Hsu residence? Why is she in the Hsu Mansion?

    With confusion, Wang Simu fell into a generous salute and softly said, “Greetings to the Holy Maiden.”

    Li Miaozhen also noticed this little concubine of Erlang Xu and nodded, responding nonchalantly, “Miss Wang.”

    As the Holy Daughter of the Heavenly Sect, Flying Swallow Heroine, Li Miaozhen’s compulsion is still very high, such an attitude is not rude, but rather, it is attached to the style of his jianghu master, a generation of heroine.

    Wang Simu took advantage of the situation to enter the house, glanced at Su Su who was self-consciously bowing her head to do the women’s red, and in her heart, she was amazed by a million things, the posture of this white-skirted woman simply made her feel stunning.

    Plus Li Miaozhen …….. There are so many beautiful women in the Xu family.

    Wang Simu was secretly shocked, but on the surface, he didn’t move, and even put on a smile, “The Holy Maiden also came to the residence as a guest?”

    Li Miaozhen shook her head, “No, I’ve been living on loan in the Xu Mansion for several months.”

    She’s been staying at the Xu residence for several months now. She is the guest secretary of Xu Mansion? Wang Simu suddenly realized, no wonder the Xu Mansion doesn’t need guards, of course it doesn’t.

    There was the young girl with amazing brawn from the Southern Border Compulsive Clan, there was the Heavenly Sect’s Holy Maiden Li Miaozhen, there was the Imperial Blade Guard’s Hundred Household Xu Pingzhi, and there was also Xu Yinluo, who had the power to suppress the Heavenly and Human Sects.

    Even her royal family didn’t have such a high-end fighting force, so where was the need for ordinary guards?

    “Although the Xu House is shallow in the officialdom, but in the jianghu, in some aspects, the depth of the bottom is scary ……… ” Wang Simu said in her heart, the guards, she is satisfied.

    She looked at Su Su and smiled, “This sister is ………”

    Li Miaozhen faintly said, “Her name is Susu, she is my sister.”

    In front of outsiders, she wouldn’t say that Su Su was a maid.

    “Good day Miss Susu.” Wang Simu greeted warmly, “Miss Su Su’s needlework is so skillful, much better than me.”

    Su Su smiled and said: ”I don’t come from a good background, even if I marry in the future, I will only be a concubine for someone, and I will have to work less. Rather, I envy Miss Wang. Coming from a noble background, her ten fingers are not touched by the spring water.”

    Coming Coming ……… Xu Ling Yue s eyes lit up, not in vain she brought Wang Simu this way.

    This Miss Susu seems to be quite hostile towards me, but I’ve clearly seen her for the first time! Wang Simu’s pupils shrunk slightly, she had a bold guess, this girl named Susu has her heart set on Er Lang?

    She knew that she could not compete with me, so she said such words as being a concubine, relying on the support of the Holy Maiden of the Heavenly Sect, sheepishly stabbing me with words ………

    Wang Simu laughed, this familiar antagonism, let her as if back to the main field, from the Xu family’s main mother of the “shadow” out for the time being.

    Miss Wang’s tone was soft:

    “Concubines have the suffering of concubines, and master mothers have the exhaustion of master mothers, so sister doesn’t need to feel sorry for herself. But in this world, there is one truth that remains constant. The higher the position, the higher the skill must be. So in the final analysis, being a villain or concubine seems to be the easiest. Right, Sister Su Su.”

    Su Su was surprised and said: ”Is that so? I see that Mrs. Xu is living quite comfortably, with a doting husband and filial children. However, Ms. Wang comes from a wealthy family, so naturally it’s different.”

    This is an explicitly positive and implicitly negative ah …….. Ms. Wang said in her heart.

    Li Miaozhen watched the show from the sidelines, Su Su and Miss Wang family you and I said something eerie, both of them are masters of mansion fighting, sharp words hidden in laughter.

    The mind is also steady as an old dog, with not a trace of anger, and it’s clearly going to be a long battle.

    Li Miaozhen hadn’t experienced this kind of thing, so she listened with great interest, but she was just a little puzzled that this Wang Simu was Erlang Xu’s little concubine. Su Su is Xu Ning Banquet’s little concubine, what are these two arguing about?

    She glanced at Xu Ling Yue again, and Xu’s younger sister, with a face of innocence and gentleness, sat on the side with a smile on her face, as if she couldn’t understand the exchange between the two at all.

    The soft little sheep is the most dangerous ah ………. Li Miaozhen lamented for a moment, and suddenly there were subtle footsteps coming from the roof, slightly sensing it.

    She rolled her eyes, Xu Ningyan also came to the theater ………

    That asshole!

    Li Miaozhen’s eyes turned, felt that because of adding fire, can not let the head of the guy too leisurely, looking for an opportunity to insert the topic, laughed:

    “Speaking of which, Sister Su Su’s family is desolate, her parents died many years ago, and she is dependent on me. This time when she came to the capital ah, she wouldn’t leave.”

    Wang Simu’s eyes flashed with a sharp light, “Oh? Not leaving?”

    This little bitch really wants to be a concubine for Erlang Xu? Erlang Xu had clearly said that he didn’t have any concubines in his family, heh, indeed he didn’t have any concubines because he hadn’t taken any formal concubines!

    Wang Simu’s heart steeply sank.

    Li Miaozhen continued, “Su Su and Xu Ningyan are in love with each other, I plan to keep Su Su in the Xu Mansion, not asking for a position as a proper wife, but as a concubine.”

    Ah! Xu Ningyan’s concubine? It’s okay then.

    Wang Simu willowed his eyes and revealed a friendly smile from the bottom of his heart.

    Oh, and big brother s love for each other ah ……… Xu Ling Yue s eyes also flashed a sharp light, and the skin smiled and did not smile:

    “Sister Susu hid it really well, I actually never realized that you and my big brother are in love. It’s really good, after Miss Floating Fragrance died of illness, my elder brother has been depressed, now it’s good, with Sister Susu, I think my elder brother will be able to gradually become happier.”

    Is this comparing me to a woman of the wind ……… Su Su glanced at Xu Ling Yue.

    Li Miaozhen heard light footsteps leaving, Xu Ningyan quietly came and quietly slipped away.

    Inexplicable fire burned to me, with Ling Yue s nature, I am afraid that I am not going to hide needles in my clothes ……….. No, I can t let the aunt get away with it, I want to see her hanged, people should have a first heart ……….. Xu Qi An blackened his face and took big steps towards the inner hall.

    The aunt was carrying a small copper pot, bent over, watering her beloved potted plant.

    “Ahem!”

    Xu Qi’an coughed, attracting his aunt’s attention, and said:

    “Auntie ah, I just saw Ling Yue taking Miss Wang to do needlework, you say she’s really too, people are here as guests, how can you make them work.”

    Auntie became anxious when she heard this, “This can’t be done, Ling Yue is no smarter than Suzume, she’s too honest, she just knows how to work all day long, and when she marries in the future, she won’t be used as a servant girl for her future mother-in-law.

    “Miss Wang is the daughter of the First Minister, what’s the point of taking someone to do needlework, it pisses me off.”

    After saying that, the aunt suddenly remembered something and said, “Ning Banquet ah, it seems that there are no glazed cups at home, only the most ordinary porcelain plates and cups, it’s still early to lunch time, you help the aunt to buy some back?”

    Auntie kindly negotiated, “With a few glazed cups, our family is more decent isn’t it, and we can’t let the Wang family lady look down on us.”

    “Alright, alright, Auntie, hurry up.” Xu Qi’an urged.

    The aunt sprinted away.

    Auntie cheers, auntie walks well ……… Looking at his aunt s graceful and colorful back, Xu Qi an revealed a smile.

    If you buy a cup, it will take a long time to come and go, and then you won’t be able to see your aunt, a black iron inserted into the king’s battle, being abused by the blood of the miserable end.

    Xu Qi’an thought for a moment, took out the small jade mirror, and placed a set of dragon blood glazed jade marigolds treasured in Duke Cao’s private residence on the table.

    Then take out the small porcelain jar with the dragon and phoenix, and a couple of celadon plates, and send them to the kitchen, so that the cook can use them to serve the food.

    …………

    On the other side of the room, the aunt stepped in small steps and entered her daughter’s boudoir with great haste.

    The atmosphere here is already a bit tense, three women secretly competing, just like a great master competing in internal strength, into a stalemate, no one can not help anyone.

    “What a nice thing to do with a needle and thread.”

    The aunt entered the room and instantly broke the stalemate, the Jedi master’s outwardly released internal force like a receding tide.

    “All day long you know how to do these chores, you’re also the eldest miss of the Xu Residence now, have the self-consciousness that corresponds to your status, do you understand.” The aunt reprimanded her daughter.

    “Mother, got it.” Xu Lingyue lowered her head.

    Su Su smiled and called out to Mrs. Xu, and then collected her “claws and teeth” and lowered her head to sew her robe.

    As soon as she came, she suppressed Ling Yue and Su Su ………. Wang Simu looked in her eyes and obeyed in her heart. When she was in the mansion, her mother said her, she could retort her mother speechless.

    As for Xu Ling Yue and Su Su in front of the Xu family’s main mother, she saw complete suppression and didn’t even talk back.

    The aunt was relieved to see that Wang Simu wasn’t working on her needlework and thought that since she was here, she would sit down and talk.

    Amiably explaining, “It’s all my fault, I’m usually too lazy to take care of the stores and fields outside, as well as the dividends on the side of the Si Tian Supervisor, these are all managed by Ling Yue. She’s busy non-stop every day and has gotten into the habit of doing so.”

    Coming coming, she started to knock me ……… She means that if I want to manage the family s accounts in the future, I have to pass Xu Ling Yue first …….. Wang Simu secretly thought.

    When my aunt arrived, the room was in harmony.

    Xu Qi’an stood on the roof, listening to the women’s nutrient-less conversation in the room, and couldn’t help but admire Wang Simu in her heart.

    She suppressed her nature very well, and played herself entirely as a meek and gentle lady of the house, trying to give her aunt and us the impression of a harmless family.

    Worthy of being the daughter of Chief Minister Wang’s family, she has a few tricks up her sleeve.

    ………..

    As lunch drew near, the aunt took Miss Wang and the ladies of the family to the inner hall, ready to start the meal.

    How the daily meals were, was also one of the criteria to measure the underlying strength of the Xu Mansion, but it was only right that dishes were abundant in a place where guests were present. So what Wang Simu was looking at was not the dishes, but the porcelain.

    Aunt greeted Miss Wang to take her seat, Wang Simu glanced at the dishes on the table, they were all just brought up and had not been moved. At this time just to the meal time, here is the main table, obviously there are men in the family, why is it that they eat first?

    Wang Simu tried, “Why haven’t I seen Xu Yinluo?”

    The aunt waved her hand and casually said, “He’s the only man in the house, so it’s inconvenient to sit with you, so I’ll let him eat in his own room.”

    …….. Wang Simu heart jumped, looked deeply at the Xu family’s main mother, and said: and how you are jealous of her, Xu Yinluo!

    At this time, the aunt picked up the jade wine pot and warmly entertained, “This is the sweet wine brewed by the mansion, try it.”
