The Xu estate was not as large as the Wang estate, but it was still a large courtyard with three courtyards. The inner and outer courtyards were both equipped with gardens and small ponds, and his aunt was a flower lover.
There were many precious flowers and trees planted in the parterre.
As the young lady of a top-notch aristocratic family, Wang simu knew that only those with a solid background would have the time and money to grow precious flowers and plants.
Hence, he had a higher opinion of the Xu family’s financial resources.
In the courtyard, the little boy was boxing, and Lina was sitting on a stone chair, nibbling on a pork shoulder while teaching her disciple.
“That’s my sister’s bell.” Xu lingyue introduced with a smile.
She had only heard Erlang mention it before, but he seemed unwilling to introduce this child … “Sister lingying, you practice martial arts?” Wang simu nodded slightly.
yeah, ” Xu lingyue sighed, ‘
“Second brother is the only scholar in the family, but he has a lot of work to do and has no time to teach her. Sending her to school and getting bullied again, mother was helpless so she simply let her practice martial arts.”
Miss Wang frowned. This wasn’t good. Women should still be educated and reasonable. The more educated he was, the more likely he would marry into a good family in the future.
“If you don’t mind, I can help lingying with her enlightenment,” she said after some thought.
“Thank you, sister simu,” Xu lingyue said with a sweet smile.
Wang simu laughed lightly. If she could become Xu lingying’s first teacher, she would surely be able to gain some respect from the Xu family and show off her talent.
“In this family, the one that gives mother the most headache is lingying,” Xu lingyue continued.”There’s nothing I can do to her.”
Xu Ling was the weakness of the Xu family’s matriarch … Wang simu quickly extracted the core essence.
However, the Xu family’s matriarch did not seem to be as “scary” as she had thought. Wang si mu had a relaxed smile on her face.
At this moment, she heard Lina berate her disciple, ‘”You’re so stupid. You can’t even learn a few fist techniques. When can you lift the stone table?” Lift the stone table? Such a young child had to lift a stone table? Then, she saw Lina ” pinch ” the stone table with two fingers in a relaxed manner.
“That young lady is …” Wang simu forced a smile.
“Oh, she’s called Lina, a girl from the southern border Gu clan. He will temporarily stay in the residence and teach Lingyin martial arts.” Xu lingyue said.
“He’s a truly capable teacher Yan.” Wang simu said.
The two of them turned the corner of the corridor and saw Xu Qi ‘an and Zhong Li sitting on the roof, basking in the sun and talking.
Wang simu’s heart skipped a beat, and she probed, I heard that Xu yinluo’s parents died early. Mrs. Xu must have racked her brains and put in a lot of effort to help him become successful.
“Isn’t that so.”
Xu lingyue sighed and said, ” when I was young, my father insisted that my big brother practice martial arts. My mother didn’t agree. She wanted him to study like my second brother. For this, father and mother have been competing for many years.”
Amazing! Wang simu exclaimed in her heart.
The entire Da Feng knew that Xu ningyan was a scholar. Even his father, Wang zhenwen, had once thought, “it would be great if this child was a scholar.”
However, because second uncle of the Xu family insisted on Xu Qi ‘an learning martial arts, Xu Qi’ an had wasted an outstanding student.
He didn’t expect that the Xu family’s matriarch would have such a discerning eye so many years ago.
Xu lingyue continued, ” when I was young, big brother and mother didn’t get along. They quarreled from time to time. In a fit of anger, he moved out of the manor and lived in a small courtyard next door. He stayed there for five years. It was only when we moved to the inner city that the family continued to live together.”
What?
Even Xu Qi ‘an couldn’t win against the Xu family’s matriarch?
Even the rebellious Xu yinluo, who blocked the meridian Gate and cursed at the Lords, who beheaded the state Duke at the market, was forced to move out of the Xu residence when she was young by the Xu family’s matriarch …
It was only then that Wang si mu realized that everything that had happened before was just a pretense. The so-called frankness, the so-called lack of fighting, everything that had happened just now was a deliberate display by the Xu family’s matriarch.
Wang simu’s breathing quickened, and her face was unprecedentedly serious.
