Rank One Princess Douxian Wang: Phoenix Palace Brocade

Chapter 4 Whispering
This is a dead corner, someone is already coming here at the end of the alley, from there you can only see Xu Jiatong and their master and servant confronting each other, it is obvious that the more bully the less, even if Lu Yurou has a mouth full of mouths, she can't tell.

"I'm a wild girl who can't stand on the stage. I have nothing, don't I?" Xu Jiatong said indifferently, his cold eyes were extremely bright in the dark alley, as if they could catch people's hearts.

"Okay, let's go." Lu Yurou left angrily.

Xu Jiatong threw the stone away, knocked the dust off her hands, and blew in distress. Her hands were not used to deal with this kind of people.

There was a light and short sneer from the entrance of the alley behind him, with a sinister and vicious vigor, Xu Jiatong's scalp went numb, and he immediately looked back, but there was no one there.

She felt that she heard correctly, and looked carefully again. She accidentally kicked a pebble on the ground when she passed by just now.She remembered that the cobblestone was more in the middle than where it was now, and she thought about it calmly, and it was indeed so.

Obviously someone witnessed all this just now, but he neither helped her nor made trouble, even if it was a mockery, he didn't want her to see it, as if nothing happened.Could it be someone from the ancestral house?

There shouldn't be such a skilled person in the ancestral house, and if it was them, they would definitely rush out to make trouble at this time, and then take her back to receive the punishment.Who else would it be if it wasn't them... Xu Jiatong immediately cheered up and decided to be more cautious in the future.

"Girl, the third master is here. He's very aggressive. Mrs. Tai tells you to go back quickly." A sixteen or seventeen-year-old delicate woman trotted over panting. It was Xu Jiatong's only maid, Bi Shui.

Xu Jiatong adjusted his clothes and smiled: "It's all right, I accidentally fell down. You see, the money is enough for us for a while, so I'm going back now."

Xu Xiaoxian, the third master of the Xu family, has never visited the house since she and her grandmother Mrs. Cao Tai were kicked out of the ancestral house.When they went back on the New Year's Day, they also spoke sarcastically and never had a good face.

His wife, Mrs. Zheng, is even more formidable, because her current aunt, Mrs. Lin, used to ask Mrs. Zheng to teach her more out of politeness and kindness.The Zheng family would always send people over to reprimand her every now and then, and if she happened to go out by chance, they would bring her back and bring her to kneel in the inner courtyard of the ancestral hall overnight, or bring her to the backyard to give her a family law.

Speaking of the flowers she and Mrs. Cao lived here, she said that Mrs. Cao shared two villages and more than ten acres of land, and regular silver was sent from the ancestral house.But in fact, the two villages are so dilapidated that the walls are peeling off. There are only a few weeds growing on the ground of the village, and a lot of weeds are planted next to it. It’s like being cursed. .

So from the day they came here, they had to keep spinning and weaving brocades in order to have enough food and clothing. Even the few servants who followed along the way had a very hard life.

When Xu Xiaoxian came to the door, there was either an unavoidable reason, or he simply had no good intentions.

Xu Jiatong entered the door calmly, her dress was still stained with mud, but it didn't hurt her demeanor at all, instead it made her look like a lotus that emerged from the mud and remained unstained.The people brought by Xu Xiaoxian in the yard looked at her contemptuously, she smiled slightly, glanced at them from the corner of her eye, and then ignored them.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ ++++++++++++++++++
The front hall was very quiet, only Xu Xiaoxian's cold snorts and strange long sighs could be heard every once in a while.Mrs. Cao still looked like the mountain was collapsing in front of her without changing her face. She occasionally raised her head to look at him, and then her eyes fell on the door.

"Grandma, I'm back and I brought you shortbread." Xu Jiatong handed the shortbread bought at the intersection to the mute.

"Hmm..." Mute eyes were eager, and she put the paper bag containing shortbread in front of Mrs. Cao with her mouth full of huh.

Xu Xiaoxian put down the teacup, sprayed a sip of tea at Xu Jiatong's feet, and said in a cold voice: "A dumb person can come to the front yard, and such lowly things can be on the stage. Madam Tai wants to stand upright here." It's the rules."

"Third brother, this is not your ancestral home, and it's not your turn to speak. The dumb lady can't speak, she can't tell what happened here today, and the people next to you are all brought by you, and there will be no one outside. Any rumors, isn't this just what you want?" Mrs. Cao sneered, and looked at Xu Jiatong with a smile, "My good granddaughter is still filial."

"This is my mother's place. Whether it's suitable or not depends on my mother's intentions. Si Niang, where did you go crazy in the early morning? I don't know how to settle down in front of Mrs. Tai, and I will throw my face outside. , there is still a bit of ladylike appearance." Xu Xiaoxian wished that two sharp knives would shoot out of his eyes, and stab Xu Jiatong fiercely.

"Grandmother, is he the third uncle? I haven't seen him for more than two years, and I feel strange. If the third uncle hadn't come today, I would have thought that there were only grandmother and me in the Xu family in Kunshan. The third uncle must be busy with household affairs. , have been commuting between Xidu and Kunshan, so I have no chance to calm down in front of my grandmother." Xu Jiatong insinuated.

Xu Xiaoxian was stunned for a moment, he hadn't looked at this girl for a few years, her appearance was quite outstanding, but the more she looked at it, the more unpleasant she became: "Sharp teeth and a sharp mouth are detrimental to women's morals, if you go to the Western Capital, it will be embarrassing." , it’s still worth it.”

The corners of Mrs. Cao's eyes twitched, and she said with a faint smile: "Fourth girl, you and your third uncle haven't spoken for a few years, so let's just say a few more words. I don't know what to see you in the future. I'll just sit here, old lady." After a while, if you have something to say, talk about it, so that you don't have to say anything in the future."

Both of them should be, Xu Jiatong suddenly saluted Xu Xiaoxian, and it was so perfect that it was no different from the women in the palace. She seemed respectful and said: "Filial piety is the most important thing in this dynasty, and women's morality is a woman's private virtue." It is wrong to harm filial piety, harm or humiliate your biological parents for the sake of personal morality. This place is not as simple as your ancestral home. If it is not for sharp teeth and sharp mouth, I am afraid that this square inch of land will not be able to hold .”

Xu Xiaoxian couldn't understand the words with a gun and a stick, didn't it mean that he treated his mother harshly, was it unfilial?But he had no way to refute.

He can make things difficult for them secretly, but he can't in the open. Once he is accused of being unfilial, everything about him will fall into the hands of the clan and his second brother.

Xu Xiaoxian coughed twice, his tone softened, and he sat down and said, "Where did you go early in the morning? On the way I came here, I heard that you often went in and out of the weaving workshop, and even sold the brocade you wove, but Is there a matter?"

"It's true, but it's not a big deal. I've heard from my grandmother that my father was quite unpredictable when he was young. He didn't go well in martial arts and literary exams, so he entered the official career from weaving. Later, he became the king and today's left. Thanks to the appreciation of my prime minister, everything is what I am today, and now he is recognized as No.1 in the Xu family by the clan elders. Presumably my father knows what I have done, and he will not object." Xu Jiatong laughed, feeling very happy despise.

In fact, Xu Xiaoxian is also very clear that if Xu Jiatong tells the truth about his harsh treatment of Mrs. Cao over the years, it will definitely not do him any good.Now he is holding on to it, but he just wants to show them off and get a better deal for the future.
