Nightwatcher

Sure enough, I was still too conceited, thinking that after chatting for a while, I could penetrate the depths of the Xu family’s mistress

However, she is really powerful. If I had not inquired about other people in the Xu family, I would have been deceived by her appearance.

Wang Simu feels like facing a powerful enemy. She is proficient in house fighting skills and knows that a real master never shows his fangs. Those women who get carried away with being favored and wish to have their arrogance and domineering written on their faces have no means of their own and rely only on pleasing men.

But when the grace is gone, they will collapse quickly and lose the chance to make a comeback.

Those who know how to disguise themselves are the real masters. And the mistress of the Xu family's disguise actually deceived even her own fiery eyes.

In comparison, the sister of the Xu family next to her was really much worse than her mother.

At least I had already known that she was a capable and scheming woman through the accident at the poetry meeting that day.

"I'm becoming more and more curious about her. What methods did she use to make the rebellious Xu Yinluo move away in silence? Moreover, after Xu Yinluo became successful, he never left this family and still respected her. she"

Wang Simu was fearful and extremely curious at the same time.

The mentality is like Huaiqing seeing the military manual and eager to learn.

Wang Simu came to the Xu Mansion today for three purposes: First, to test the depth of the Xu family's mistress. Second, take a look at the Xu family's heritage, including the house, financial resources, and various aspects of home furnishings.

Third, get a preliminary understanding of the Xu family members’ personalities and hobbies to ensure who they can win over and suppress in the future.

For a woman, this is information and things that must be mastered. When Zhen and Erlang get married in the future, she will move in.

She gradually came to a conclusion about the depth of the Xu family's mistress - it was unfathomable!

Now, she planned to take the opportunity to take a look at the Xu family's background.

The two chatted and walked around the Xu family's mansion. After this visit, Wang Simu was quite satisfied with the house. Even if he lived here in the future, he would not feel shabby.

the only problem is

"There seem to be a few guards in the house." Wang Simu pretended to be careless.

"Because neither father nor the eldest and second brothers have any close subordinates. So they only hired retinues and no bodyguards." Xu Lingyue explained.

Wang Simu nodded slightly. The guards who look after the house must be confidants, otherwise it will be easy to commit theft. Furthermore, the male master cannot always be in the house, and if the female family members in the house are as beautiful as flowers, it will be even more dangerous.

In this case, the defense force would be weaker. Wang Simu frowned secretly. Although she could bring her palace guards over, this behavior would be both a destabilizing factor and a provocation for her husband's family.

Xu Lingyue sighed: "The Xu family has a shallow foundation, and there is nothing we can do about it."

As he said that, he glanced at Miss Wang calmly, and seeing that her brows were slightly furrowed, Xu Lingyue smiled sweetly.

At this time, they passed by Xu Lingyue's boudoir. Wang Simu looked at it inadvertently and was suddenly stunned. She saw an unexpected figure - the Holy Lady of Tianzong!

Why is she in Xu Mansion? Why is she in Xu Mansion? !

With confusion, Wang Simu saluted gracefully and said softly: "I have seen the saint."

Li Miaozhen also noticed Xu Erlang's mistress, nodded, and responded calmly: "Miss Wang."

As a saint of the Heavenly Sect and the Feiyan Heroine, Li Miaozhen is still very realistic. Such an attitude is not rude, but echoes his demeanor as a master of martial arts and a generation of heroines.

Wang Simu took advantage of the situation and entered the room. He glanced at Su Su, who was looking down at her work as a prostitute. She was extremely surprised. The beauty of this woman in a white dress simply made her feel stunning.

In addition, Li Miaozhen and the Xu family have so many stunning beauties.

Wang Simu was secretly frightened, but remained calm on the surface, even smiling: "The saint is also a guest in the house?"

Li Miaozhen shook his head: "No, I've been living in Xu Mansion for several months."

She has been living in Xu Mansion for several months. Is she a guest of Xu Mansion? Wang Simu suddenly realized, no wonder Xu Mansion didn't need guards, of course not.

There is the young girl from the Gu tribe in Southern Xinjiang who has amazing physical strength, there is Li Miaozhen, the saint of Tianzong, there is Xu Pingzhi from the Hundred Sword Guards, and Xu Yinluo who can overpower both the Tianzong and Human sects.

Even her palace does not have such high-end combat power, so why do we need ordinary guards?

"Although the Xu family has a shallow background in official circles, in some aspects, in the world of martial arts, its deep background is scary." Wang Simu said in her heart. As for the guards, she was satisfied.

She looked at Susu and said with a smile: "This sister is"

Li Miaozhen said calmly: "Her name is Su Su, she is my sister."

In front of outsiders, she would not call Susu a maid.

"Hello, Miss Su Su." Wang Simu greeted warmly, "Miss Su Su is really good at needlework, much better than me."

Su Su smiled and said: "I have a bad background. Even if I get married in the future, I will only be a concubine for others, and I will have to work. I envy Miss Wang. She was born into a noble family and has no fingers in the spring water."

Come, come, Xu Lingyue's eyes lit up, she was worthy of bringing Wang Simu here.

This girl Su Su seems to be quite hostile to me, but this is obviously the first time I see her! Wang Simu's pupils shrank, and she had a bold guess. This girl named Su Su had a crush on Erlang?

She knew she couldn't compete with me, so she said things like being a concubine. With the support of the Tianzong Saint, she stabbed me with her words.

Wang Simu laughed. This familiar confrontation made her feel as if she had returned to her home turf, temporarily stepping out of the "shadow" of the Xu family's mistress.

Miss Wang’s tone was soft:

"The concubine has the hardships of the concubine, and the mistress also has the fatigue of the mistress. Sister, there is no need to feel sorry for herself. But in this world, there is a truth that remains unchanged. The higher the position, the higher the ability. So in the final analysis, be a little concubine. People and concubines seem to be the most relaxed. Right, Sister Susu."

Su Su said in surprise: "Really? I think Mrs. Xu lives a very comfortable life, with a doting husband and filial children. However, Miss Wang comes from a wealthy family, so it is naturally different."

This is overt praise and covert derogation, Miss Wang said in her heart.

Li Miaozhen was watching the show on the sidelines, while Su Su and Miss Wang's family were talking weird words to each other. Both of them were masters of house fighting, and their sharp words were hidden in their laughter.

His mentality is as stable as an old dog, with no anger at all. This will obviously be a protracted battle.

Li Miaozhen had never experienced such a thing, so she listened with interest, but was a little confused. This Wang Simu was Xu Erlang's mistress. Su Su is Xu Ningyan's mistress, what are these two arguing about?

She glanced at Xu Lingyue again. The Xu family's sister had an innocent and gentle face, sitting aside with a smile, as if she didn't understand the conversation between the two at all.

The weak little sheep are the most dangerous. Li Miaozhen sighed. Suddenly, there were subtle footsteps on the roof, and he felt it.

She rolled her eyes. Xu Ningyan also came to listen to the show.

What a bastard!

Li Miaozhen rolled his eyes and felt that the guy above him couldn't be too leisurely because of the extra fire. He found an opportunity to interject into the topic and said with a smile:

"Speaking of which, Sister Su Su's family is in a miserable state. Her parents died many years ago, and she and I depend on each other. This time she comes to the capital, and she won't leave."

A sharp light flashed in Wang Simu's eyes: "Oh? Aren't you leaving?"

This little bitch really wants to be Xu Erlang's concubine? Xu Erlang clearly said that he did not have any concubines in his family. Oh, there was indeed no concubine, because there was no official concubine!

Wang Simu's heart suddenly sank.

Li Miaozhen continued: "Su Su and Xu Ning Yan are in love. I plan to keep Su Su in the Xu Mansion. I don't want to have the position of a head wife, so I can just be a concubine."

ah! Xu Ningyan’s concubine? That's okay.

Wang Simu showed a friendly smile from the bottom of his heart.

Oh, I am in love with my eldest brother. A sharp light flashed in Xu Lingyue's eyes, and she said with a thin smile:

"Sister Su Su is so good at hiding it. I never found out that you and my eldest brother are in love. It's so good. After Miss Fuxiang died of illness, my eldest brother has been depressed. Now it's better. With Sister Su Su, I think I can gradually be happy."

Does this compare me to a prostitute? Su Su glanced at Xu Lingyue.

Li Miaozhen heard slight footsteps and left. Xu Ningyan came quietly and then slipped away quietly.

An inexplicable fire burned on my body. With Lingyue's temperament, I'm afraid she has to hide needles in my clothes. I can't let my aunt get away with it. I want to see her hanged and beaten. People must have original intentions. Xu Qian's face was dark, and he strode towards Inner hall.

The aunt was carrying a small copper pot and bending over to water her beloved potted plants.

"Ahem!"

Xu Qian coughed, attracting her aunt's attention and said:

"Auntie, I just saw Lingyue taking Miss Wang to do needlework. You said she was serious. She is here as a guest, how can she let her do the work."

The aunt became anxious when she heard this, "How can this be done? This girl Lingyue is not much smarter than Suzuyin. She is too honest and knows how to work all day long. When she gets married in the future, she will not serve as a maid for her future mother-in-law.

"Ms. Wang is the daughter of the chief minister. What's wrong with taking her to do needlework? I'm so angry."

After saying that, my aunt suddenly remembered something and said, "Ning Yan, there seems to be no glass cup at home, only the most ordinary porcelain plate and porcelain cup. It's still early for lunch time. Can you help aunt buy some?"

The aunt discussed it nicely: "There are a few glass cups. Our family is more respectable. We can't let Miss Wang take it lightly."

"Okay, okay, aunt, go quickly." Xu Qian urged.

Auntie left quickly.

Come on, Auntie, Auntie walked away. Looking at Aunt Pingting's colorful back, Xu Qian smiled.

If you buy a cup, it will take a long time to go back and forth, so that you won't see the tragic end of the black iron that auntie inserted into the king's battle and was beaten to death.

Xu Qian thought for a while, took out the small jade mirror, and placed on the table a set of dragon blood glazed jade cups that were collected in Cao Guogong's private residence.

Then he took out the small porcelain jar with dragon and phoenix and a few blue and white porcelain plates, and sent them to the kitchen so that the cook could use them to serve the dishes.

On the other side, the aunt walked into her daughter's boudoir with small steps.

The atmosphere here is already a bit tense. The three women are secretly competing with each other, just like peerless masters competing for internal strength. They are at a deadlock, and no one can do anything to the other.

"What kind of needlework are you doing?"

Auntie entered the room and broke the deadlock in an instant. The inner strength released by the peerless master was like a receding tide.

"I know how to do these jobs all day long. Now you are also the eldest lady of the Xu family. You need to be conscious of your status. Do you understand?" the aunt scolded her daughter.

"Mom, I got it." Xu Lingyue lowered her head.

Su Su smiled and called Mrs. Xu, then restrained her "minions" and lowered her head to sew the robe.

She suppressed Lingyue and Susu as soon as she came. Wang Simu saw it in their eyes and obeyed in their hearts. When she was at home, her mother talked about her, and her mother was speechless even if she could refute it.

When Xu Lingyue and Su Su were in front of the mistress of the Xu family, she saw complete suppression, not even talking back.

When her aunt saw that Wang Simu was not doing needlework, she breathed a sigh of relief and thought that since she was here, she would sit down and have a chat.

He explained affably: "It's all my fault. I usually don't bother to take care of the shops and fields outside, as well as the dividends from Si Tianjian. These are all taken care of by Lingyue. She is busy every day and has developed a habit."

Come, come, she started to beat me. What she meant was that if I want to take care of the family's accounts in the future, I have to pass Xu Lingyue first. Wang Simu thought to himself.

After the aunt came, there was harmony in the room.

Xu Qi'an stood on the roof, listening to the useless conversations of the women in the room, and couldn't help but admire Wang Simu in her heart.

She suppressed her nature very well and completely acted like a docile and gentle lady, trying to give the impression of harmlessness to her aunt and our family.

As expected of the daughter of Wang Shofu's family, she has a lot of money.

Lunch was approaching, and my aunt took Miss Wang and the female relatives to the inner hall to prepare for the meal.

How the daily meals are is also one of the criteria for measuring the heritage of Xu Mansion, but in a place with guests, it is natural that the dishes are rich. So what Wang Simu was looking at was not the food, but the porcelain.

Auntie asked Miss Wang to sit down. Wang Simu glanced at the dishes on the table. They had just been served and had not been touched. It was just time for dinner, and here was the main table. There were obviously men at home, so why did they eat first?

Wang Simu asked tentatively: "Why haven't you seen Xu Yinluo?"

The aunt waved her hand and said casually: "He is the only man in the house. It is inconvenient to share the table with you, so I asked him to go to his room to eat."

Wang Simu's heart skipped a beat, and he looked deeply at the mistress of the Xu family, thinking: Why are you so afraid of her, Xu Yinluo!

At this time, the aunt picked up the jade jug and greeted her warmly: "This is the sweet wine brewed by the house. Try it."
