In Xian Mansion, the summer sun is like a scorching fire. The towering trees in the scorching courtyard have all withered leaves, and all the green leaves are drooping. The sunlight easily penetrates through the layers of green leaves and falls in the courtyard where no one can be seen at all.
, the road paved with bluestones reflects the dazzling light of the sun, and the scalding heat burns your feet when you walk on it.
"Zidian, I'm hot!" A rather impatient voice sounded in the courtyard, slightly sarcastic, and the complaint was full of irritation, "These rough-and-tumble slaves are planning to piss me off to death!
I don’t even know how to fan myself.”
The two slaves who were following the man who spoke were also sweating like rain on their faces, their faces were red from the heat, and the fans in their hands kept fanning. No wonder they were scolded for trying so hard. It was too hot.
The air blown out by the fan is hot.
"Mother, the sun is too poisonous. Please rest under the shade of a tree and don't walk around." Xian Ziyan followed her mother with a look of helplessness on her face. She took the fan from a slave who was serving her mother and fanned her mother while discouraging her.
At the same time, she motioned with her eyes to the two slaves to follow her slightly away, leaving only a young woman dressed like a slave who was walking with her behind her mother.
Mrs. Xian turned around and glared at her daughter, "You are so short-sighted. If I don't walk around, how will I know what is happening in this mansion? These slaves would rather hide in the room and be lazy, or else they would go to the toilet in a hurry.
That bitch is so flattering, did your father go to that little bitch’s room again? You really don’t listen to advice. Since ancient times, beauties have brought disasters. No matter what kind of concubine you marry, you want to have such a shabby concubine!"
Xian Ziqian subconsciously glanced at the newly renovated small courtyard on the west side of the courtyard. It was the residence of his father's recently married concubine Wanqing. Ever since this well-known and famous luthier in the capital married into the Xian family, her mother had never been able to live in peace. She wished she could live in peace.
He stays in the courtyard all the time, staring at everyone in the courtyard. If there is any slight disturbance, there will definitely be a big fuss.
His father ignored the power of his mother's family and ignored it. Nowadays, it is not a big deal for a man to have three wives and four concubines. His mother's family also pretended not to know about it. As long as Mrs. Xian is still the principal wife of the Xian family, Mrs. Xian's eldest son
Xian Jian'an is still the only incense of the Xian family and the heir to all the property, so Mrs. Xian's natal family will not come to argue.
"The old lady in Guan Mansion is sick. My father has been taking my sister to visit me these past two days." Xian Ziqian was not sure whether her father was taking her sister to visit the old lady in Guan Mansion or just staying in his concubine's room, so he could only speak vaguely.
He said, "For this reason, Guan's eldest son even rushed back from outside. Dad also feels sorry for your poor health. Otherwise, you would have to go with us."
Mrs. Xian always felt nauseous and unbearable. When her daughter said this, she immediately said impatiently: "Just tell your father's lies here. He has no time to care about family matters. Don't use these useless things."
You are fooling me with your words. When did that old man of yours think of taking me out to meet guests? If I were to follow, how could that little bitch get the chance to take advantage of your father! Go there and take a look, if your father is there
, just tell him that I am about to die and ask him to come over and take a look at me, so that I will not be able to see him even after I die."
Xian Ziqian sighed in her heart, and handed the fan to the slave Xiaochun who had been following her, "Sister Xiaochun, please accompany my mother to sit under the shade of the tree first, and I will go to the yard to have a look."
