BXBX NOVEL Chapter 96 - 96: Vanity
Just as Xiao Jing ‘ai had said, her reputation was indeed better. With the title of Xingping County Lord and the emperor’s personal coronation, she was always looked up to by others. Moreover, she was not young, and she should be at the age of marriage. If she was any later, she could not afford to delay it.
If she insisted on marrying Yang Shao, then she had to seize all the time. Otherwise, she could only listen to her parents ‘orders and the matchmaker’s words.
Although Madam Xiao was a stepwife, she was not a mean person. In addition, Xiao Jing ‘ai’s identity was different from before, so she should not be bad at discussing marriage. However, there was definitely a gap between her and the mother of the country she wanted to be.
However, seeing that she was willing to give up on an aristocratic family like the He family, it was obvious that she was determined to go all out.
If Xiao Jing ‘ai still wanted to follow the old path, she should have made a move soon.
Xiao Jing ‘ai was not as good as her. At least, she could make the decision with her mother. Although her mother was silly and sweet, she was good enough to side with her children. However, Mrs. Xiao was different. After all, she was the stepmother. First of all, her mood was different. Moreover, because of this title, she could not let Xiao Jing ‘ai do whatever he wanted. If word got out that Xiao Jing’ ai was not beautiful, his reputation would be ruined. Mrs. Xiao would not be able to say anything good about her stepmother.
Therefore, regardless of whether it was sincere or fake, if there was a suitable marriage, Madam Xiao would definitely decide on it first.
Because of this, Xiao Jing ‘ai was pressed for time.
Especially after the stimulation of King Xin ‘an, that nerve in his brain must have collapsed.
Cai Wei heard this and said,” This servant has something to say to Wifey. I heard from Hu Po that recently their Second Wifey has been very generous. She would throw money out at any time. The servants around her have received quite a lot of benefits. The courtyard has also been taken care of.Jt seems that someone leaked the news and told Second Lady that we have been inquiring about the news on their side.”
Xiao Baoxin smiled. It wasn’t that he didn’t care about it in the past, but that he couldn’t care about it at all.
They were all sent by Madam Xiao to serve a motherless wife. It was definitely not very attentive.
Now that he had the support of the Xingping County Lord’s name and was not short of money, it was naturally established.
“But Wifey, don’t worry. Hupo’s family isn’t good. She has a mother who is sick all year round. Although his brother is filial, he broke his leg when he was working two years ago. She was also in a difficult position.’Towards the end, Cai Wei couldn’t help sighing.
Normally, Second Lady was generous to her servants. In the past, she would reward them with silver from time to time. However, she couldn’t stand the fact that every family had their own difficulties. Those that flowed out of her hands were really not enough to fill them.
From the looks of it, not only did Cai Wei know the situation in the Xiao Residence like the back of her hand, she even knew the situation in each household.
Xiao Baoxin was filled with admiration. How much of Cai Wei’s talent had she delayed previously?
“No matter what the reason is, loyalty is the most important thing when serving me. There’s no doubt about this.”She said,”I’ll say it here today. If 1 find any of you have any disloyalty and do something inappropriate, don’t blame me for being merciless.””
There were only four maids in the room, and they quickly said they didn’t dare to.
“Wifey treats us so well. If we have any disloyalty, wouldn’t our hearts be ruined?”Cai Wei’s small mouth was the best at speaking, and she did not forget to express her loyalty.
“However, you can tell me if you have any difficulties. I’ll definitely help if 1 can. At least you took care of me once. It’s fate.”
“What fate?”
Before the four maids could respond, Xiao Baoshu barged into the room like a gust of wind, sweating profusely. “What fate did sister say? With whom?”
Xiao Baoxin immediately felt a headache and waved his hand to dismiss the maid.
“Sister, what’s wrong with you?”Xiao Baoshu took a step forward and sat on the couch.” You and Xie Xian-there’s a rumor going around outside that you two were pulling each other. Brother Yang and I were drinking at that time, and he was telling me that he wanted to marry you. He was talking about the bright future in front of me, wishing that he could name your two children in the future. Then, 1 heard Xi Jiu and the others talking about you and Xie Xian.”
Xiao Baoshu rambled on and on until he finally finished talking about what had happened.
“.. These two people were really admirable. They actually sat there eating and chatting for nearly six hours as if nothing had happened.”After he finished speaking, he heaved a sigh of relief. He was only thirteen years old, but he looked like an old man.
“I can’t afford to mess with them…You don’t know how awkward Pan Shuo and
1 were. We sat there eating and drinking, but we didn’t dare to talk or start a conversation. We were afraid that we would accidentally say the wrong thing and make things awkward for the two of them.”
Only Pan Shuo, that idiot, who had been holding it in for the whole afternoon, had actually said,”
“The two of you are really fated. Not only do you have the same temperament, but you also have the same taste in women.”
After that, there was nothing else. The two of them acted as if they hadn’t heard anything. Pan Shuo, on the other hand, almost bit off his own tongue and ran away like a rat. He was in a sorry state.
“Sister, can you tell me what’s going on? Which one do you like? Which one do you want to be my brother-in-law?”
” I’ve divined your fortunes,” Xiao Baoshu said in distress.” It seems that all of you are doing well.” However, 1 personally prefer Brother Yang to be my brother-in-law. He is more straightforward and is good to me. Xie Xian…Your body isn’t very good…”
“Does it have anything to do with you whether my body is good or not?”Xiao Baoxin rolled his eyes at him.” You’re already thirteen years old, yet you’re still so unruly? You barged into my sister’s boudoir just like that. Can you still have some rules?”
Xiao Baoshu made her blush.”
“I’m just being anxious. 1 won’t be like this in the future. From what Sister said, does she have a crush on Xie Xian?”Then, she suddenly came to a realization,” Sister, you think Xie Xian is prettier than Brother Yang, right?”
“You can’t judge a book by its cover. Let me tell you, I’ve read Brother Yang’s fortune before.”
Xiao Baoxin took a sip of tea. He could only say that he was somewhat accurate. After all, no one dared to say that the founding emperor who changed the dynasty of a country was not destined to be rich and noble.
“Moreover, Brother Yang’s health is good, even Xie Xian can’t catch up to him.”
She could see that he had gone through a lot of trouble to make her choose Yang Shao as her husband.
“You don’t have to worry about me. I’ll make my own decision and bear the responsibility in the future. Baoshu, you can date Yang Shao, but don’t think I’m like you.”
Xiao Baoxin said solemnly,”I’m not the same as him. You don’t have to say anything.” If he asks about you, just tell him what I said.”
Finished, finished, finished, it was really Xie Xian?
“Sister, don’t be so vain. What noble young master, what emperor’s favorite minister? Our family is also a poor family, isn’t it good to live now? You can’t learn from those bullsh * t ethos and look down on the common people.. If you look down on him, you’re looking down on our father who comes from the same family background!”
