"Have you heard? Miss Xiwen is back and is distributing things. Hurry up and get them. Whether you know them or not, there are good things to distribute. Look at my necklace. I saw the second lady a few days ago. There is a belt, it is said that it is worth several thousand gold coins, and Miss Si gave it to me directly."
"Yes, I also got a bracelet. It is said that it is the most popular style in the imperial capital now. It costs several thousand gold coins each, but Miss Xiwen didn't hesitate to give it to us. She is really a kind person."
"Really? Miss Xiwen is back? Didn't you say that the Lion King collar she married was in an extremely declining rural place? How could she be so rich?"
"You are too closed. What kind of declining country place? It is said that there is gold everywhere. The lord has opened dozens of gold mines. The rich are extremely rich. The beds Miss Xiwen and the others live in are all made of gold. Made of gold."
"Yes, it is said that the lord has elves and orcs as guards. There is also a dragon. I saw that dragon. Fortunately, it is very small, very human, and very cute."
…
All of a sudden, everyone in the Wang family knew that the fourth miss, Xiwen, had gone home to visit her relatives, and she had brought back a lot of good things, and anyone who knew a little bit would send them out.
So, the entire Wang family ran towards this small courtyard where they hardly looked at it normally.
"What? She's distributing things? Are they all worth thousands of gold coins?" In a small courtyard nearby, a beautiful woman in a noble gown raised her eyebrows high, as if she didn't believe it.
"Yes, Second Miss, I heard that Fourth Miss sent out dozens of necklaces like the one you are wearing, just like sending out iron chains." The maid next to her reported.
"It's unreasonable. What does she think she is? This time, she came home just to arrange another marriage for her and help our royal family gain benefits. What's the matter with her making such a big deal?"
Hearing these words, Second Miss Xihong couldn't sit still. When they were at home before, none of their sisters was much stronger than this fourth sister, and the poor girl had never even seen the belts on her body.
At that time, the fourth young lady was the most unfavored in the mansion, so she was finally married to such a remote place, or to a sick ghost who was about to die. Now that the other party has come back, there is such a posture of returning home, which naturally makes her unacceptable.
"Follow me to have a look." Xi Hong raised his haughty jaw with a sneer on his face. "I haven't seen you for a few years, and I turned against her."
At that moment, Second Miss Xihong brought some maids and walked towards the small courtyard where Xiwen's mother lived.
When he first arrived at the door, Xihong saw many maids and sisters coming out of the small courtyard. Everyone was holding one or several things in their hands, or precious ornaments, or some precious ornaments. Cosmetics, and some nice clothes too.
Xihong married a nobleman from a nearby territory, and he often went to some big duchies to attend banquets, so he naturally knew the taste of high-end goods very well.
Seeing what the maids were holding in their hands, she immediately raised her eyebrows. Although it was just a glance, she had already discovered that those things really looked real, not like forged fakes on the street.
In this era, we have not fully entered the commodity society, so fakes are not so popular, and there are not many counterfeit goods. Occasionally there are a few pieces, which are also poorly made, which can be seen at a glance.
"Second miss." When these maids saw Xihong, they hurriedly saluted.
Xihong raised his eyebrows high, and said: "These are all given to you by Miss Si?"
One of the maids said: "Yes, Second Miss, Fourth Miss brought back a lot of things, you should go quickly, I heard that she has specially prepared some good things for you."
"Bastard, what good things have I never seen? Just like her from the countryside, if she can bring out some good things, she will give you some fake street stalls. You are all so happy. Hurry up and throw away Already?" Hearing these words, Xi Hong's face immediately sank.
Comparing women is always inevitable. Especially for a materialistic woman like Xihong. Now seeing a younger sister who was bullying, ridiculing, and mocking at will suddenly become prosperous, completely comparing her, the jealousy in my heart, even if I poured the water of an ocean, it will not stop.
These maids didn't dare to speak when they saw the second young lady getting mad, and walked away silently one by one with their things.
Fake street stalls? It's not that these maids in the Wang family have never seen good things. They have served the wife and miss for a long time, and they can clearly distinguish what is good and what is bad.
Women have a natural talent in distinguishing things like jewelry.
Each of them understood what was going on in their hearts. It was the second young lady who was jealous, and she was very jealous. There was no need for them to encounter this kind of misfortune, so walking away in silence was the wisest choice.
"Huh? The perfume of Imperial Purple Orchid? I asked that dead thing at home to buy that kind of perfume for me, but I haven't bought it for a long time. Isn't it just more than 5,000 gold coins?"
Xihong saw the perfume she had dreamed of from the hand of a maid who walked away silently, and she would never remember the faint smell wrong.
How could a humble maid have such a thing
"Stop." Xihong shouted immediately.
The maid immediately stopped and said timidly, "Second Miss."
"You also use this kind of perfume. It's a waste of our Wang family. If you don't bring it to me, let me throw it away." Xihong snatched the perfume bottle and said coldly. But in her eyes, there was a kind of fire burning.
"Ah...Second Miss?" Tears of grievance rolled in the maid's eyes, she didn't dare to ask for it, but she was still a little unwilling.
"What are you looking at? Don't get out?" Xihong shouted like a shrew.
"Yes." The little girl covered her face and ran away. Seeing this scene, the other maids also ran away quickly, for fear that the things in their hands would be snatched by the second lady.
"Damn girl, you dare to snatch the perfume from me, you're getting impatient." Xihong caressed the perfume bottle, but turned his eyes to the small courtyard she was familiar with.
"What the hell did this fourth girl get rich in? They really used these things to distribute them everywhere? Could it be that the Lion King Territory is really so rich that such things are thrown around? Isn't it a place where birds don't shit? ?”
With a stomach full of doubts, Xihong walked into the courtyard.
The maid inside soon discovered Xihong's arrival, and hurriedly reported Xiwen and her mother.
Xiwen has been afraid of this second sister since she was a child. When she heard that she was coming, she immediately stood up and greeted her.
"Second Sister, are you here?" Xi Wen slightly bent over and saluted Xi Hong, her tone still a little nervous.
Xihong glanced at Xiwen, first slightly stunned, and then a burst of jealousy surged up. What Xi Wen is wearing and wearing now, just by taking a rough look at it, she has been completely compared to her.
In front of Xiwen's outfit, her clothes are almost the same as those from the countryside.
In an instant, Xihong's jealousy could burn up the entire territory of the Wang family.
"Hmph, okay, Xiwen, you're doing well, come back to visit your relatives, and don't go to see your second sister." Xihong walked into the room self-consciously, and his tone was already ready to find fault.
Xi Wen hurriedly said: "Where, I just came back, I just entered my mother's room, I haven't sat down for a while, and I plan to visit my second sister later."
Xihong swaggered on the chair and looked at Xiwen's table and bed with many ornaments, piled up casually like garbage, but each one was extremely expensive, which made her feel even more affected. stimulated.
"Hmph, did you just come back? I've heard about it. You're so handsome when you come back to visit relatives and distribute things everywhere." Xihong said bitterly with a strong sense of sourness.
Xi Wen hurriedly said: "The little sister naturally prepared something for the second sister, please wait a moment for the second sister."
With that said, Xi Wen hurriedly took an exquisite brocade box from the side, and handed it to Xi Hong with both hands.
Xihong snorted coldly, took the brocade box, opened it, and a burst of brilliant light illuminated her face, making her stunned like a statue.
"Heart of the Ocean? This is actually the Heart of the Ocean necklace? Is it true? It is said that it is made of the most precious ocean sapphire in the ocean. There were only a few hundred pieces made in the Lan Kwai Fong workshop in the imperial capital. Unexpectedly... unexpectedly able to be in front of me now." Xihong looked at the heart of the ocean, his hands trembling slightly.
After a long time, her chest rose and fell several times in succession, and Xihong's excited mood calmed down. However, her face did not show the slightest joy, but became more gloomy. She slapped the brocade box on the table, angrily He shouted: "Are you just using these rubbish things to fool me? Do you think I have no knowledge, have I never seen good things? This kind of thing brought by a rough country woman is given to me? Are you taking me as your second sister? Go out After a few years, the wings have hardened, right?"
The more Xihong said, the angrier she became, and her excited chest heaved more violently. In fact, she was not angry because the heart of the ocean that Xiwen gave her was really vulgar. She had only seen this kind of thing before and dared not think I can get one myself. What makes her angry is that Xiwen can own so many good things, and even give them away, but she hasn't even touched them.
How could this not make her jealous
The more Xi Hong said, the angrier he became, and suddenly he quickly walked in front of Xi Wen, and slapped him habitually.
Seeing Xihong slapping him, Xiwen was so dazed, but she didn't even have the courage to dodge, waiting to be beaten. This kind of resignation is something she has cultivated since she was a child. She knew that she was not qualified to fight Xi Hong at all, and if she resisted, her father would punish her immediately.
Therefore, when the familiar scene reappeared, Xiwen still didn't dare to fight back.
However, this time, Xihong's slap failed to reach Xiwen's face. Her wrist was gripped by the slender and powerful hand, like an iron hoop, which made her unable to move even a little bit.
She turned her head, but saw a woman in a black cloak and a mask, with only one pair of eyes exposed, looking at her coldly.
"What are you? Dare to stop me? Someone, pull her out for me and break a leg." Seeing that someone dared to stop her from beating Xiwen, Xihong became even more angry.
However, what responded to her was a slap in the face.
This slap came over and sent her whole body flying out, and smashed hard on the coffee table in the room, causing a mess.
Xihong only felt that there were gold stars in front of her eyes, and she couldn't breathe in her chest, and she couldn't speak. When the gold stars dispersed, she saw the things in front of her clearly, and the hairs on her back stood up in shock.
In front of Xihong, there is now a sharp feathered arrow resting on a simple and beautiful longbow.
Xihong has no doubts, as long as the owner who holds the bow loosens his fingers, she will immediately go to hell.
Because, she could see that the other party's eyes were without any emotion, and there would be no hesitation or consideration in killing her. The reason why the other party hadn't done anything yet was because Xi Wen yelled "No".
If it wasn't for this sound, her little life might have ended here.
Xihong's whole body was stiff, and he didn't dare to move, for fear that a slight movement of his would give the other party a reason to kill him.
At this moment, all she can do is ask Xiwen for help.
"Xiwen, she... who is she? You tell her to put down her bow and arrow, we are sisters, what can I say..." Xihong felt his voice was trembling like a bellows.
"Tyrande, forget it, she didn't mean to hurt me, so don't kill her." Xi Wen came over and took Tyrande's hand to comfort him.
Tyrande frowned slightly, looked at Xiwen, and said, "Are you sure you don't want me to kill her? The order my master gave me is to protect you from any harm. Anyone who dares to cause the slightest harm to you will be killed."
Xi Wen said: "She won't really hurt me, don't kill her, just let her go, I know Xiao Yu is here to protect me, but there is no need to kill her."
Hearing Xiwen's words, Xihong felt even more terrifying. Who is this woman with a bow and arrow? In the territory of the Wang family, he dared to kill her, the second young lady, without any fear. Who is the master she spoke of
How powerful and courageous is this master, dare to issue this order
After listening to Xiwen's words, Tyrande slowly retracted the bow and arrow, looked at Xihong, and said coldly: "If you dare to approach Miss Xiwen within three steps, my arrow will definitely pierce your skull .”
Xihong nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, his face was full of panic, and he was lying on the ground, unable to stand up.
Under Xiwen's instruction, a maid next to him helped Xihong up. Xihong felt that his calf was still twisting, and he couldn't stand up on his own at all.
Seeing Tyrande's cold eyes, Xihong didn't want to stay in this room any longer.
"Fourth sister, I... I'll go first." With an apologetic smile, Xihong turned around and was about to leave the room. Before leaving, her hand still did not forget the heart of the ocean that Xiwen gave her.
However, just as she stretched out her hand, a dagger was inserted less than a millimeter away from her fingertips with a thud.
Xihong raised his head and saw Osilia holding Xiaolong and looking at her coldly.
So, she didn't dare to stay for a moment anymore, and with the help of the maid, she ran away as if fleeing.
After leaving the small courtyard, Xihong naturally did not go back to his residence, but complained to his father. For such a big matter, someone dared to kill her in Wang's house, so is it okay
"My lord, my lord, you have to make the decision for me." Wang Tianhu had just finished talking about Xiao Yu with Wang Zimo when he heard Xi Hong crying bitterly from outside the door.
Wang Tianhu frowned immediately, and said, "Let her in."
The door opened, Xihong ran and crawled in, grabbed Wang Tianhu's sleeve, and said, "My lord, my lord, you have to decide for me, someone wants to kill me, and someone in the Wang family wants to kill me."
"What? In my Wang's house, someone dares to kill you? Who is so bold? Guards, prepare to catch the assassin immediately." Wang Tianhu was furious, he dared to come to his Wang's house to kill, this person is really audacious.
"It's the fourth sister. I heard that the fourth sister came back today and went to see her with good intentions, but her maid actually wanted to kill me. Look, she slapped me so hard that my face is swollen. Then she even pointed at me with a bow and arrow, and she was going to kill me." Xihong pointed at his face, weeping and groaning, "Father, Fourth Sister is too arrogant, she doesn't even look at you. , you must make the decision for me and punish her severely."
Originally, Wang Tianhu was already extremely angry and wanted to ask the guards to catch the assassin, but when he heard that it was someone from Xiwen, Wang Tianhu sat back slowly. The guards had just received the order to come in, but he waved his hand and said: "Go down, it's okay."
"My lord, my lord? What do you mean? You don't care if Simei wants to kill me?" Seeing Wang Tianhu's expression, Xihong suddenly felt bad. In the past, even if they bullied her Xiwen, come to my father to complain, and my father will punish Xiwen.
what is it today? Xiwen's maid wanted to kill her, but her father didn't even intend to do it
Wang Tianhu sat on the seat, looked at Xihong, and said calmly: "In the future, don't go to Xiwen's place, and don't provoke Xiwen."
