The mistress is reborn, no one who bullies me can escape
Chapter 114 The Wen Family
After seeing Xue Jinhua, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then turned into anger.
The child has grown up to be as graceful as a lotus emerging from water, even more beautiful than her mother was in her youth, but she does not have her mother's worldly air.
If her mother wasn't around, it wouldn't be a bad idea to take her home and raise her carefully, but it's a pity...
When Madam Wen looked at Xue Jinhua, Xue Jinhua showed no fear at all. She met her gaze and also looked at the old lady carefully.
Lord Wen was just a minor local official. As far as Xue Jinhua knew, the Wen family were all country folk before, and it was not until Grandpa Wen's generation that a juren was finally born.
With the help of his connections, he found a job in the government.
The Wen family is not of high status, nor is they wealthy, but look at what Madam Wen is wearing. The fabric she is wearing is cloud brocade, which is worth a fortune, and the emerald on her head is as big as a pigeon egg. Even the ladies in Kyoto may not be able to own such luxurious headwear.
However, what kind of life does Miss Wen live?
The wilderness is deserted and uninhabited...
No wonder she died in loneliness.
"Miss, why don't you quickly bow when you see the old lady?" The old maid was already burning with rage in her heart, and now with the old lady beside her, she was even more arrogant, and her tail was almost up to the sky.
"After all, she grew up in the countryside, so she is really uneducated. She must learn the rules when she returns, so as not to bring shame to the Wen family after getting married."
Sakura was so angry that her lungs were about to explode, and she wished she could strangle this hateful old witch to death immediately.
But Xue Jinhua was not in a hurry.
"What Madam Wang said is absolutely right. People from the country just don't know the rules. The master hasn't even opened his mouth yet, but you, an old maid, have already started chattering." Xue Jinhua had always lived in the backyard and had seen all kinds of people. A servant like Madam Wang, who took advantage of her power to bully others, was nothing compared to her.
"Those who know this think that Madam Wang is speaking for the old lady, while those who don't think that Madam Wang is committing an act of disrespect and doesn't even take the old lady seriously."
Mother Wang's face turned ugly instantly, but Xue Jinhua continued to hide her thorns, "However, if you say that this country person doesn't know the rules, I'll be the first to disagree. Didn't the old master and the old lady also come to Nanling from the countryside? In Mother Wang's eyes, the old lady doesn't know the rules either."
Mother Wang's expression instantly became extremely stiff. She quickly looked at the old lady and said, "Old lady, I... I didn't mean that."
"Mother Wang has been with me for a long time, and she always speaks her mind. There is no such twists and turns as you say?" After a long time, Old Madam Wen spoke slowly, and Mother Wang heaved a sigh of relief.
I had really underestimated this young lady before. I thought she was gentle in character, but I didn't expect her to be so sharp-tongued. She almost angered the old lady.
"What the old lady said is absolutely right."
Xue Jinhua and she had no blood relationship, and she was only staying in the Wen family for a short time, so she really didn't want to have too much connection with the old lady.
Calling her old lady is just right.
"Your father missed you because you have been away from home for so long, so he specially asked me to come and take you home. Moreover, your family has already arranged a marriage for you. The other party's appearance and family background are impeccable."
Xue Jinhua's heart was as clear as a mirror, so he didn't say much.
"Get in the car."
After a while, several people drove to the Wen family in a carriage.
As Xue Jinhua got out of the car, a young girl rushed over and said, "Grandma, is this the sister you were asked to pick up in person?"
As a young lady of the Wen family, she had never even met her own sister. This was unheard of...
Although this is more beneficial to Xue Jinhua, deep down in his heart he couldn't help but feel a little sad for Wen Jinhua.
"You are so ignorant of etiquette, you must be ugly..."
Before he uttered the words "Eight Eccentrics", he caught a glimpse of Xue Jinhua's face.
The rest of her words felt like a lump in her throat and she swallowed them back.
I thought her elder sister would be an ugly monster without any rules, but she turned out to be so beautiful and elegant, just like a fairy from a mural...
Wen Jinyu was secretly jealous, and turned her head and said coquettishly, "Humph, with your looks, you are more than suitable for that ugly guy."
Madam Wen was afraid that if she said too much, Xue Jinhua would notice something strange, so she quickly spoke out to stop her, "Well, your sister has been traveling all the way, let her go and rest first."
Wen Jinyu was indignant, but did not dare to go against her grandmother's wishes.
Not long after, Xue Jinhua brought her back to the Wen family's courtyard.
After Xue Jinhua left, Wen Jinyu pulled a long face and said unhappily: "Grandma, have you forgotten? I am your biological granddaughter! Why are you so good to her?"
Madam Wen smiled slightly, looked at her lovingly, and said slowly: "Silly child, she is going to get married soon, and will no longer be a member of our Wen family."
"Why would you bother with someone who is about to leave? Also, don't blame your grandmother for not reminding you. Before she gets married, you'd better not provoke her. If you anger her and she doesn't want to marry you, who will be willing to marry you to the Qian family? Do you really want to marry that ugly man in the Qian family?"
Hearing this, Wen Jinyu couldn't help but shudder.
The Qian family is a family that suddenly appeared in Nanling a few years ago. Although no one knows their origins, the Qian family is financially very strong.
Originally, the Wen family and the Qian family had no connection. However, a few days ago, the Qian family actually sent someone to propose marriage to the Wen family, which surprised everyone.
Xue Jinyu has always loved money, but when she heard that the second master of the Qian family had a strange personality, wore a mask all day long, and no one knew his real face, she was filled with fear and anxiety.
She secretly guessed in her heart that the second master of the Qian family must be extremely ugly, otherwise why would he never show his true face?
What’s more important is that the second master of the Qian family has a bad reputation for being a wife-killer.
It is said that he had married several wives after coming to Nanling, but without exception, these women died tragically on their wedding night.
Some people rumored that he was a bloodthirsty monster who liked to suck the flesh and blood of women.
Others believe that he is born to be unlucky with his wife, and any woman who marries him will not have a good ending.
Because of this, even though the Qian family is extremely powerful and wealthy, no woman is willing to marry such a man.
And Xue Jinyu was naturally extremely reluctant.
"Grandma, I understand. I want to see with my own eyes what a miserable end she will have on her wedding night."
Master Qian was quite thoughtful. Taking into account that Xue Jinhua had just arrived and was not familiar with the Wen family, he arranged everything early on.
Among them was an old maid named Grandma Zhou and a maid named Qingyi, so that they could take better care of her.
Sakura looked at the yard in front of her and couldn't help but complain again: "What a shabby place this is! You are really from the countryside and have never seen the world. My girl is about to get married, and you let us live in such a shabby yard. Aren't you afraid of being laughed at?" Although she kept muttering, she still started to clean up.
At this moment, Xue Jinhua spoke up to stop them, "Yinghua, you don't have to clean it. I don't like this yard. Someone will come to help us change the yard later."
Sakura opened her mouth in surprise, wondering, with Madam Wen's attitude, how could she take the initiative to propose changing the yard?
However, all I heard was the timid voice of Mother Wang saying, "Miss, I'm sorry, I made a mistake. You should live in the Painting Pavilion, not here."
Sakura couldn't help but widen her eyes, her heart filled with admiration for her young lady.
The lady is really good at predicting things!
Xue Jinhua smiled slightly and asked calmly, "Mother Wang, are you sure you won't make a mistake again this time?"
"No, don't worry, Miss. I will never make a mistake again." Mother Wang assured quickly.
