Rebirth cannon fodder

Chapter 66
"Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Xu Manzhen said angrily, still pretending to be with her, but didn't say anything.

"Aren't I afraid that you will be nervous?" Xu Dahong was also depressed.He had a good intention, but he felt very uncomfortable when this result happened.

Of course, there were more real reasons than these, but he didn't want to say it.

But he was still a little curious, and asked, "However, how did you know that Xu Yingzhen would definitely destroy your painting?" Xu Yingzhen wasted a lot of thinking by preparing a backup in advance?
It's hard to guess, Xu Yingzhen has always thought of Xu Shuzhen in everything, she is so sure that Xu Shuzhen will win, it's okay if she doesn't win, but if she really wins...

"I didn't prepare it on purpose, but Bai Xin took it wrong." Xu Manzhen said calmly.Everyone wants her own secret, and it is only natural that she is herself.Although Xu Dahong is still in harmony with himself in everything, but there will always be a day when there will be disagreements.

Therefore, she naturally wouldn't tell Xu Dahong all of her cards, let alone that she knew most of the cards that followed the development of the plot.

"Are you going to make excuses like this to your brother?" Xu Dahong's face darkened.He felt that he was completely sincere towards this sister...but this time the sister refused to tell him the truth, which made him feel very hurt.

Xu Manzhen looked at Xu Dahong's appearance, a little reluctant.So far, Xu Dahong is still a very good brother, he cares about himself very much, and helps himself as much as he can...

Although in the original drama, he was disappointed with his sister in the end... But there are many reasons for it, and it cannot be completely blamed on him.

Xu Manzhen softened her voice and said, "Brother, it's not that I don't want to tell you... But this matter involves another person, I think, even if I tell you, you won't believe it."

Xu Dahong said angrily: "Whether I believe it or not is up to me, but whether you are willing to tell me or not is up to you."

Xu Manzhen had no choice but to say: "The reason why my younger sister can show a little bit of the fourth younger sister's behavior... is because of my younger sister's understanding of the third younger sister."

"What?" Xu Dahong was very surprised.

What happened to Xu Shuzhen?She even cried to her father just now, saying that the fourth sister was too impatient and she didn't have time to stop it...

Is there any inside story in it?Xu Dahong's face involuntarily sank.

"Brother, have you ever thought about it, if this time, I don't have any works that can be sold, and my father picks up my sister's embroidery... Now, what will happen?" This is what Xu Manzhen is curious about.The reason is that in the original script, Xu Manzhen stopped Xu Shuzhen and then destroyed her embroidery.

Xu Manzhen in the past was indeed very savage, but is there such a fierceness?Xu Manzhen has already discovered that Xu Shuzhen often provokes herself intentionally or unintentionally... Of course, it's not particularly obvious.However, after she received praise or Xu Manzhen received criticism, she would deliberately dangle in front of Xu Manzhen.

According to common sense, when she knew that Xu Manzhen was full of temper at this time, what she should do was to stay far away... But Xu Shuzhen was always the opposite, always waving in front of her, as if beating someone .

Xu Yingzhen's attitude was much more normal. Normally, she would avoid Xu Manzhen.Of course, except for Xu Shuzhen's early days.

So Xu Manzhen is now sure that in the original script, Xu Manzhen destroyed Xu Shuzhen's embroidery, and there is something else hidden.Those lines... From Xu Manzhen's point of view, how do they look like provocation?

"What do you want to say?" Xu Dahong thought for a while, but found that the facts shocked him too much, so he refused to think about it, and asked Xu Manzhen directly.

"If you don't see her true face for yourself, I won't tell you." Xu Manzhen shook her head and said, "For so many years, everyone in the house has said that I am savage and domineering... It is somewhat true, but more There are many, but what is it, I think, doesn’t brother have any idea? If you really don’t trust your sister so much, even if she tells you the truth, how much can you believe?”

Xu Dahong left One Leaf Garden in a daze, and Xu Manzhen also sat in front of the window calmly for a long, long time.

This time, she's going to take a risk.She wanted to bet that Xu Dahong would eventually discover Xu Shuzhen's true face.

What if you are the heroine?I don't believe it, the original characters really have no brains, and trust you completely foolishly?
As long as they are willing to use their own brains to think and analyze with their own ingenuity, sooner or later, your painted skin will be exposed.

Xu Manzhen is very confident.

Xu Shixun acted very quickly. The next day, the painting was framed and sent home by the shopkeeper.Xu Shixun specially asked Xu Manzhen to see it.Xu Manzhen went to the small study in the front yard, looked at the three-foot-square ink painting, secretly admiring it, the effect was indeed better when it was framed.

"It will be the birthday of the old lady of the Meng Mansion in three days." Xu Shixun was in a very good mood, "Since the status of Fourth Aunt is not suitable for going out, so, this time, I will leave it to you."

Xu Manzhen's heart moved, this kind of banquet, four aunts and one aunt, is indeed not suitable, and people will laugh at it.However, she is just a girl, and after all, it is still not enough to represent the Xu family, she is barely better than Si Yiniang.

But... There is one person who is very suitable!
"Father!" Xu Manzhen knelt down and said sincerely, "It's impossible for a daughter to come forward for such a thing. I'm afraid people will think that the Xu family is arrogant, but at a time like this, let a daughter come forward..."

"Then what else can we do?" Xu Shixun frowned. He was actually quite troubled by this problem, but there was no better way, so... he just settled for the next best thing.

"I ask my father to agree to let my mother take her daughter to the old lady's birthday party in the Meng Mansion." Xu Manzhen said loudly.

Xu Shixun was furious when he heard the words, and scolded: "Do you know that your mother has ignored the affairs of the mansion many years ago?" How can you move her out again?
"My daughter knows." Xu Manzhen replied calmly, neither humble nor overbearing, "But even if she doesn't care about things, as long as her father doesn't divorce and remarry, then she will be the only mistress of the Xu family. In this regard, Fourth Aunt will be in charge for many years. , and cannot be changed.”

Therefore, even if her mother didn't care about things, she was still the only legitimate daughter, Xu Dahong was the only legitimate son, and if Fourth Aunt was in charge of the house, she would only give birth to concubine daughters.

This is what later generations often scolded, the feudal ethics of eating the dead... But now Xu Manzhen looks at it and thinks it is quite cute.

The key is, it depends on what angle you are evaluating.

Xu Shixun was dumbfounded.Indeed, although his wife has practiced next door for many years, as long as he remarries after a day's rest, she will always be his only wife.

This fact made him quite annoyed for a while.

"Do you know that if it wasn't for you two, I would have divorced your mother?" Xu Shixun said bitterly, and picked up the teacup in his hand and threw it at him. Xu Manzhen tilted his head and missed it.

Mother... It should be said that it was Yuan Shen's mother. What did she do back then to make Xu Shixun, a husband, so angry after so many years?Xu Manzhen was puzzled.But she inquired many times, but couldn't find any useful information... This shows that someone deliberately kept the information secret.

Back then, it must have been a big deal.But Xu Manzhen had no way to guess what it was, after all, she didn't even have a direction.

"Father, you can't let mother practice forever." Although Xu Manzhen's attitude is respectful, what Xu Shixun said was very disrespectful. Xu Shixun didn't like to hear it, and didn't want to hear it. "How old is brother this year? Soon, he You want to talk about marriage... Do you want Fourth Aunt to talk about marriage for brother? Brother will inherit the Xu family in the future, do you want the Xu family to have a disgraceful mistress?"

Xu Shixun's chest heaved greatly, and his expression was also vicious, staring at her vigorously.

Soon, soon, Xu Manzhen secretly pinched the time with her hand hanging inside her sleeve.

Sure enough, Xu Dahong rushed in and shouted loudly: "Father...Uncle Mo just got a wonderful poem, I ask you to go and taste it."

Uncle Mo is the most valued cleanser in their Xu Mansion.But in this kind of aristocratic family, the family more or less needs to raise a few clean guests. They are usually very leisurely, but if something important comes up, they have to make up their minds for the master.If you come up with an idea that ruins the master's affairs... then you can't stay anymore.

This Qingke surnamed Mo likes to write poems when he has nothing to do, and he often writes some very good poems. This time Xu Dahong was afraid that Xu Manzhen would suffer from his father, so he moved him out.

"What's so great about a poem!" Xu Shixun said angrily, and scolded his son again by the way.

After scolding for a while, he felt that his anger subsided a little, and he spared his son and daughter, and walked out of the house to look for the cleaner surnamed Mo.

"Did you come here to be scolded for me?" Xu Manzhen looked at Xu Dahong who was scolded to shame, and asked amusedly.She thought he could come up with a good solution, but it turned out to be such an idea!

Bai made her look forward to it.

"You are too reckless today." Xu Dahong looked helplessly at his younger sister who looked at him with disapproval, shook his head and said, "Mother's affairs are father's rebellious scales, how many times have you touched them, why don't you know?" What about growing up?"

Xu Manzhen said in a deep voice: "Today is a good opportunity, so I have to give it a try." If Xu Shixun finally disagrees...then it's a big deal for me, and I won't go to the Meng Mansion. There is no gain or loss for that old lady celebrating her birthday, but Xu Shixun is different.

He expended so much effort to plan this matter, which shows that this matter is very important to him.Therefore, Xu Manzhen must seize this opportunity.Let that mother come back in a legitimate way, and never go back to engage in that practice of fishing for money.

"It's not that simple..." Xu Dahong said with a sigh.
