Chapter 8

Thinking of her sweetheart, Xiao Dujuan couldn't help showing a shy smile.

Remembering that Wei Zi was still there, she quickly put on a straight face and threatened: "If you dare to speak out about this matter, I will tear your mouth apart!"

Wei Zi thought to herself, Xiao Dujuan, Yunying's unmarried boudoir daughter, learned the truth, but in private she was rushing to give clothes to men, and it would be embarrassing to say it out.

She said slowly: "I have to wash, cook, and sweep the yard during the day. I'm already tired enough. At night, I will turn on the lamp and do needlework. I'm afraid I won't be able to wake up in the morning, and my eyes will not be able to bear it."

"What a lazy man!" Xiao Dujuan scolded in a low voice, "From now on, you don't have to worry about breakfast. I'll ask the women to cook it, and you just focus on making the clothes well. If you can please Mr. Chen, I will naturally give you benefits .If Mr. Chen doesn't like it, Wei Zi, be careful with your skin!"

Wei Zi said: "Sister Du Juan has a sweetheart, I'm really happy for you, but I feel sorry for your brother who died young, and I can't see you getting married."

Xiao Dujuan gritted his teeth.

Whose brother died young, what a bad luck!

Wei Zi continued: "Dujuan, will you go to Yunshen Temple on Qingming day?"

"Of course, I have to see Mr. Chen!"

Wei Zi caressed the pile of fabric.

Xiao Fengxian is still just an immature young man now, his behavior is erratic, his scheming city is not as deep and terrifying as in the future, I'm afraid he may not be able to deal with Shen Shilang.

She has to follow to ensure that Xiao Fengxian can be accepted by Shen Shilang and squeeze Xiao Lingxiao's position.

There can be no mistakes in her revenge.

Thinking of this, she sincerely said: "Can I be with you? I want to offer your brother a stick of incense in front of the Buddha, and bless him with a good pregnancy in his next life. On the way back and forth, we can also have a care. Don't worry, I promise not to tell anyone about the clothes you want to give Mr. Chen, not even my mother-in-law."

Xiao Dujuan hesitated.

As a little girl, she went to Yunshen Temple to worship Buddha and offer incense, and then went to find Mr. Chen alone, and plunged into the crowd of men, which would definitely arouse curiosity and suspicion.

Bringing Wei Zi's sister-in-law along as an excuse to offer incense to his elder brother would certainly not attract attention.

She reluctantly nodded: "Okay, then don't run around and cause trouble for me."

Wei Zi took the opportunity to say again: "It's inconvenient for me to be wearing anklets, see if you can..."

Xiao Dujuan was impatient: "You are such a smart person. It is a favor to let you go out. Why are you so dissatisfied and want to unshackle? My mother said, you are young and widowed, I am afraid that you will not be able to keep your law If you stop, you have to lock your ankles, so you won’t open your legs when you see a man! Wei Zi, you’d better be honest, don’t try to get any tricks out of me!”

After finishing speaking, he hummed softly and turned away.

Wei Zi touched the shackles on his feet.

Xiao Dujuan is not too stupid, she acted too hastily.

but……

This pair of shackles will be taken off by her sooner or later.

The girl suppressed the chill in her eyes, and unfolded the cloth brought by Xiao Dujuan. Xiao Dujuan had never done needlework, so she didn't know how much cloth was needed to cut a dress, and the cloth she sent was enough to cut two bodies.

Wei Zi carefully divided the fabrics, planning to borrow flowers to offer Buddha, and cut a body for Xiao Fengxian.

Just saved a fortune.

At dusk three days later, Wei Zi went to find Xiao Fengxian with the clothes she had finished and the newly practiced calligraphy.

small study.

Xiao Fengxian turned over the big characters written by Wei Zi one by one, and circled a few that were not bad: "Sister-in-law is so powerful and brave when she kills fish, why is her writing always soft? After three days of practice, it's just like this." I can barely read a few words."

Wei Zi argued shyly: "Who is so powerful and so brave, why is the second brother talking nonsense? It's you, who is going to see Shen Shilang soon, have you finished reading all your books?"

Every time she ran into Xiao Fengxian, this fellow was not studying.

I don't know how I was admitted to Tanhualang in my previous life.

"Sister-in-law, not everyone needs to study hard in the cold window." Xiao Fengxian raised her hand and nodded her head, "Do you understand if you have a photographic memory? Those gray-haired scholars who are admitted to the scholar, are just rotten wood Carving is useless."

Teenagers are crazy.

If these words are released, I don't know how many people will be jealous and resentful.

But Wei Zi knew that Xiao Fengxian had the ability to be arrogant.

She glanced at Xiao Fengxian's handwritten words——

The iron painting and silver hook pen are like dragons and snakes, and they are hundreds of times better than her calligraphy.

It's true that people are more angry than others. No matter how hard she tries in her life, she may not be able to compare with him.

As if peeking into her mind, Xiao Fengxian comforted: "Sister-in-law, don't be angry, even if you can only learn three points of my calligraphy, it's the level of everyone's praise."

Wei Zi: "..."

This is not consolation, it is clearly boasting.

Seeing her still unhappy, Xiao Fengxian continued to coax her: "There are some shortcomings in the ruler and strengths, and my sister-in-law is also better than me."

Wei Zi's eyes lit up: "For example?"

"For example, my sister-in-law cries when she says she wants to cry. Not everyone has the ability."

Wei Zi: "..."

A dog can't spit out ivory, yet she expects comfort from Xiao Fengxian!

She silently put away her own words, shaking off the burden she brought: "Here, the clothes I promised to make for you are already ready, try to see what doesn't fit, I'll take them back and change them."

In this life, no one has ever made clothes for Xiao Fengxian.

When he was a child, he picked up clothes that Xiao Lingxiao didn't want to wear.

When he grew up, he made his own money to buy ready-made clothes from clothes shops.

He was in a good mood, so he changed behind the screen and walked out to show Wei Zi: "Let's see, sister-in-law?"

It is a dark black round-neck gown. The cuffs and neckline are embroidered with the pattern of Phoenix Immortals with dark green silk thread, showing a low-key elegance. The round neckline reveals the snow-white cross-collar lining. The waist is even more straight like a pine bamboo.

He has a smile on his brows and eyes, which rarely reveals a bit of youthful childishness.

In Wei Zi's eyes, she almost forgot that he will be a cruel and cruel treacherous official in the future, but he looks like a well-behaved and sensible brother next door showing off his new clothes.

Sitting there on her knees, she smiled gently like an elder sister: "A boy of your age naturally looks good in anything he wears."

Xiao Fengxian was dissatisfied: "Sister-in-law thinks it's just as good-looking in other people's clothes?"

Wei Zi wanted to nod his head and say yes, but when he met Xiao Fengxian's unfriendly gaze, he dared not say it again.

Xiao Fengxian refused to give up: "Then sister-in-law thinks, who is better looking, Xiao Lingxiao or I?"

Wei Zi thought, this person is not old, but he loves beauty too much, and even compares his beauty with his brother...

She suddenly thought of an article she had read before, called "Zou Ji satirizes the king of Qi and accepts advice".

Zou Ji asked his wife, concubines, and guests who was more beautiful than Xu Gong in the north of the city. They all said that he was more beautiful than Xu Gong, but Zou Ji looked in the mirror and felt that he was far inferior to Xu Gong.

So he admonished the king of Qi, saying that because his wife favored him, his concubines feared him, and his guests asked him for something, they all praised him for being more beautiful than Xu Gongmei against their will, and the king of Qi was higher than him. The weight, the concubines in the harem, the courtiers, and the people all over the world love him, fear him, and ask for him. It can be seen that King Qi has been deceived more than him.

So the king of Qi ordered to seek talents and accept advice, and humbly accept other people's accusations and advice. Soon, Qi became a powerful country.

Wei Zi originally wanted Xiao Fengxian to follow the right path, and thought to himself, isn't this a good opportunity to educate him?

So she assumed the posture of the eldest sister-in-law: "Second brother, may I have read an article called "Zou Ji satirizes the king of Qi and accepts advice"? The second brother only wants to hear good words, but he doesn't know that good words will only deceive you. You are still young now. You should be modest, listen to your elders and your master when you have nothing to do, and be a kind and good official in the future..."

She babbled, but Xiao Fengxian didn't listen to a single word.

She refused to answer directly, which proved that in her heart, Xiao Lingxiao was prettier than him.

How did her eyes grow?

What nonsense to talk about with an open mind and a kind heart, he has long grown crooked in order to survive these years.

It's ridiculous that after coaxing the little widow for a few days, she floated away, and she dared to call herself his eldest sister-in-law.

How stupid!

Xiao Fengxian sneered: "Sister-in-law read some books, and then ran to me to show off her knowledge. You are neither my wife, nor my concubine, nor my guest. If I ask you who looks good, you will just talk about it in a long-winded manner." So much nonsense. Even if the old man of the Xiao family doesn’t care about me, you’ve started to discipline me. Sister-in-law likes to be kind-hearted, but it’s a pity that sister-in-law’s husband, Xiao Lingxiao, is not a kind-hearted person either!”
