Chapter 876: Wang simu’s shock (2)
Translator: 549690339
It might not be a beating, but the Xu family’s matriarch might be testing me. After all, my father is the first assistant Minister. If I really marry the second son, I’ll be considered to have married down. She was afraid that I was a domineering and unruly person, so she threw a ruler to test me.
If I was truly an unruly and willful daughter, I would definitely be furious, but I obviously wouldn’t be so shallow …
She did not plan to fight with the Xu family’s matriarch today. As the saying goes, know yourself and know your enemy, and you will win every battle. She was here today to spy on them.
She had to figure out the Xu family’s matriarch’s methods and temperament first before she could decide on how to get along with her in the future. It seemed that the matriarch was just like her thoughts, testing her.
He was indeed an expert.
As old Zhang led the guests into the mansion, he sent a servant to inform miss lingyue.
When Wang simu passed through the outer courtyard and entered the inner courtyard, she happened to see Xu lingyue coming out to greet her with a smile.
The Xu family’s younger sister was wearing a Lotus-colored long dress, and her hair was combed into a simple and elegant bun. Her oval face was beautiful and refined, and her facial features were very three-dimensional, but she revealed a weakness that men would love.
“Wang family’s sister, after the last Poetry Gathering, I have not had the time to invite you to my residence as a guest. Today, I’ve finally gotten what I wanted.” Xu lingyue’s smile was clear and sweet.
“Speaking of which, during the poetry Gathering, causing younger sister to fall into the water, older sister’s heart has always felt apologetic.” Wang simu’s smile was dignified and gentle.
The two girls held each other’s hands, as if they were deeply in love and good sisters.
Entering the inner hall, Wang si mu finally saw the legendary Xu family’s matriarch. She was sitting at the main seat with a smile, looking at her with kind eyes.
She was so stunning. She had a sharp oval face and exquisite facial features. At first glance, she didn’t look like Xu lingyue’s mother at all, but more like her sister.
Wang si mu was both surprised and unsurprised by the beauty of the Xu family’s matriarch. This was because she only needed to look at Xu lingyue beside her and Xu Erlang, whom she admired, and she could roughly guess that this matriarch’s beauty was unparalleled.
She was surprised that the matriarch had taken such good care of herself that she didn’t look like a mother of three at all.
“Mrs. xu!”
Wang simu bowed gracefully.
“Miss Wang, you’re welcome. Please sit down.”
With a reserved smile on her face, the aunt motioned for Wang simu to take a seat.
Of course, she couldn’t show too much enthusiasm. After all, this was her future daughter-in-law, so she still had to put on the airs of a mother-in-law.
After Wang si mu took her seat, she looked at her personal maidservant and smiled gently. “When I entered the residence just now, I saw a ruler at the door, so I had the servant girl pick it up.”
After the servant girl placed the ruler on the table.
Her aunt was stunned. hey, lingyue, this is your ruler, right? why did you throw it at the door? ”
Xu lingyue took a closer look, and sure enough, it was her ruler. She exclaimed, “”lt must have been lingying who threw it there. Just now, she took my ruler and played with it.”
What a powerful technique, I’m actually speechless … Wang simu forced a smile. She couldn’t possibly say anything bad about a child.
Then, Wang simu asked the retinue to send some gifts over. Since they were going to have a meal here, they brought some expensive cakes and some jewelry for his aunt and lingyue.
This jewelry was not ordinary jewelry. It was the work of a craftsman in the Imperial City who specially made jewelry for the concubines in the harem.
Of course, Wang simu would not deliberately point out the identity of the craftsman. That would be too low-end, and it would only make her seem like a superficial woman who liked to show off.
She had only said that it was made by a craftsman from the Imperial City. Any young lady or married woman with the slightest bit of knowledge would know what this meant.
“Miss Wang is too kind.”
His aunt was quite happy to receive the jewelry.
Seeing this, the Wang family’s first wife’s daughter understood that her little trick was not enough to surprise the matriarch.
Outside the hall, Xu Ling found her brother sitting on a bench in the corridor, listening to something. She ran over.”Big pot, what are you doing?” “Big Brother is watching. show … No, I’m just listening to a play.” Xu Qi ‘an touched her head.
“I also want to hear it.” Xu Ling waved his arms. Xu Qi ‘an picked up her sister and put her on her lap.
Xu Ling also pretended to listen.
The young lady of the Wang family’s combat strength was only like this? Well, after all, she didn’t marry him, so it was understandable to be polite and reserved, but wasn’t this a little too amiable …?
Based on my understanding of miss Wang, she should be a very opinionated and strong person. It’s impossible for her not to test aunty’s level …
Why hasn’t she made. move yet? I’m waiting for her to make Auntie angry …
In the hall, Wang si mu was chatting with the Xu family’s matriarch and Xu lingyue without any flaws.
After a period of probing, Wang si mu was shocked to find out that this matriarch of the Xu family was not as profound as she had imagined.
Wang si mu was an expert at house fighting, and had a keen sense of smell for her own kind. However, she did not find any similar characteristics with the Xu family’s matriarch.
Her personality was more forthright, and she turned a blind eye to his probing, as if she didn’t know how to scheme at all. Moreover, it seemed that because of her identity as the first assistant’s daughter, he was especially polite to her, as if he was afraid that he would not be able to entertain her well.
For example, when she talked about Rouge and powder, she immediately lost the posture of an elder and chattered like a little girl.
She even complained that she couldn’t understand the account books in the shops outside and could only ask Xu lingyue to help manage them, exposing her own shortcomings.
No matter how he looked at it, she didn’t seem like a woman with superb means.
Wang simu was deeply confused.
After that, her aunt suggested that Xu lingyue bring Wang simu around the residence.
Because she could not figure out the depth of the Xu family’s matriarch at the moment, Wang si mu also wanted to go out for a walk, change her mentality, and wait for the opportunity to fight again..
