Rebirth cannon fodder

Chapter 11 True and false white lotus

However, maybe from him, we can get more information about the Xu Mansion.Although she is familiar with the script, it refers to Xu Shuzhen's part of the script. If other actors' plays do not involve Xu Shuzhen's role, she does not know...

Moreover, in this way, the overall situation is a bit worse.

Xu Manzhen got up quickly, left the room, went to the gate of the yard, and welcomed Xu Dahong in.

"When is brother free to come and sit with me?" Xu Manzhen asked with a smile.

"I found a few good books in the study room. I thought you might like them, so I brought them to you." Xu Dahong said with a smile. Girl, holding a large stack of books.

He thought his sister liked reading so much, why did he bring so much?Xu Manzhen's face was darkened, the vertical typesetting method, the text without punctuation, and the tragic font... Such a book does not seem to be enjoyable at all, let alone the content of the current book, there is nothing good about it Novels... I really miss the goofy online novels!
"This book is very popular now. It's very good-looking. Take a look, Manzhen. You might like it." Xu Dahong took out a book from the stack of books held by Bai Jing and handed it to Xu Manzhen, saying, "This book is about a few books. The story of a monster escorting an eminent monk to Xizhu to learn Buddhist scriptures... I think it's quite interesting, would you like to read it?"

Isn't this Journey to the West?Xu Manzhen took it curiously and flipped through it. The vertical version is still vertical, but this is a popular novel, so I finally read a sentence. Although it is not very pleasing to the eye, it doesn't seem so difficult.

"I found this in the study?" Xu Manzhen asked curiously as she looked at the not particularly thick booklet, which was too new.Hey, it's still a booklet!
Unexpectedly, when she finished speaking, Xu Dahong's face turned red.

"Why do you ask so much!" Xu Dahong said dissatisfied, "Do you think it looks good? If it looks good, I will buy the rest."

Xu Manzhen glanced at Xu Dahong with a half-smile, and Xu Dahong knew that he had slipped the tongue, touched his mouth in embarrassment, and finally smiled openly: "What's wrong with picking a few books for my sister? Do you like it? If you like it, I will." Buy the whole book."

Xu Manzhen flipped through it, and found that there were only five chapters in the booklet in her hand, from the birth of the monkey to the riot in the Peach Garden.

When she was a child in her previous life, she had watched the TV series "Journey to the West" N times, but she had never read the original book. Now that she reads it, she still finds it very interesting.I just don't know how many chapters there are in the original book, one hundred chapters?Five hundred times?

But in terms of the structure of the story, these five chapters are just the beginning.

"How much more?" Xu Manzhen asked Xu Dahong, finally found something to do, her eyes became bright.

"A total of twenty volumes and one hundred chapters." Sure enough, it was one hundred chapters, Xu Manzhen sighed, and Xu Dahong hurriedly said, "Manzhen, do you like it?"

"I like it very much." Xu Manzhen said, at this time, Bai Xin finally served the tea.

"I'm leaving, your tea will come." Xu Dahong looked at his sister and said jokingly.

Hearing what the young master said, Bai Xin's little face flushed red with embarrassment.

"You're still drinking tea, you should be lucky." Xu Manzhen said shamelessly, "Third sister came just now, but she just cried." The tea came in time, but she couldn't drink it because of crying, it's no fault Her faux pas as a master.

"By the way, I was about to ask you, what happened to the third sister?" Xu Dahong heard Xu Manzhen mention Xu Shuzhen, so he quickly asked.

He came today not only to deliver books, but also to ask about Xu Shuzhen's affairs.As an older brother, he couldn't watch his own sister go wrong.

"What do you think is going on?" Xu Manzhen asked calmly after taking a sip of tea.

Well, this tea is not bad, with a slight bitterness in the fragrance, but behind the bitterness is a faint sweetness, it is indeed a very high-quality tea.

"I heard from Yingzhen that you disliked the books that Shuzhen found for you and tore them up?" Xu Dahong looked at his sister with some disapproval at this point, and said, "You don't fear that Daddy will be angry if you do this. what."

"Are you angry?" Xu Manzhen still didn't tell the truth, but asked instead.

She wanted to know how others viewed her and Shuzhen in Xu's residence.Moreover, she was also in admiration, this rumor...is it so outrageous?

It can be seen that Xu Manzhen has suffered a lot in the past.

If even her direct brother thinks that the fault is all her own...then she has to reassess the current situation.

"I... I think that although you usually have a big temper, you wouldn't tear up the book just because of such a trivial matter... right?" Xu Dahong said, but he himself was not very sure, and he looked at the book with some hesitation. Xu Manzhen.

The main reason is that Xu Manzhen's usual temper is really too big, but it is still a bit exaggerated to say that tearing up the book... But it is not something she can't do at all.

"Bai Xin, take out the book that sister Shuzhen sent today." Xu Manzhen said.

Bai Xin hurried into the small bookstore beside her, flipped through it for a while and took out a book.

"This is..." Xu Dahong took the book, looked at the title, and was a little speechless. It turned out to be "The Analects of Women"?Shuzhen actually sent this book to Manzhen?
That Manzhen really exceeded his expectations, she didn't tear up the book?When did she have such a good temper?
"Are you reading?" Xu Dahong asked in disbelief, thinking about finding this book from his small study.When did Manzhen start reading books like this?
"I didn't read it, I just followed it to practice calligraphy." Xu Manzhen admitted honestly, "The teacher in the women's school assigned a homework with a hundred characters, but I don't remember which book has a hundred characters in it, so I just followed it." The book goes on."

"Let my brother take a look at your big characters." As soon as he heard that Xu Manzhen practiced big characters, Xu Dahong didn't care about anything else, and hurried in to see Xu Manzhen's writing.

Is it necessary to exaggerate like this?Xu Manzhen was very depressed, she didn't know how her predecessor's handwriting was, but now her handwriting is completely unreadable!

Fortunately, I only wrote less than one piece of paper.Xu Manzhen winked at Bai Xin, who was standing stupidly beside her, and told her to quickly hide the piece of paper with writing on it.

Alas, it's not that she lacks self-confidence, it's just... that handwriting can't be seen by anyone!
Bai Xin was quick-witted and came to her senses. Before Xu Dahong entered the door, she sprinted into the small study room, and quickly put the piece of paper on which the second lady wrote on into her bosom.

"What are you doing?" Xu Dahong yelled, he just wanted to see the words written by the girl... Why is this little girl so nervous?
"I asked her to hide it." Xu Manzhen coughed and said, "Brother, my word... is really shameful. It's better not to see it."

"Forget it." Xu Dahong also waved his hand generously, "I thought your handwriting had improved. If it's still the same as before, then I won't read it, lest you be shy."

There must be no progress, but regress... This may really happen.Xu Manzhen's head was sweating.

"Brother, do you think it's strange? Why did Shuzhen give me a copy of "The Analects of Confucius"?" Xu Manzhen asked a question that she hadn't figured out from the bottom of her heart, "It's not like she doesn't understand me at all. Well, how can I say that I am also her sister!"

And the two often quarrel.Isn't there such a saying in the market, the person who knows you best is not yourself, but your enemy.

In a sense, she and herself can be regarded as enemies... Even if they are not enemies, they must not be regarded as friends. Logically speaking, such a person should know herself best, but she is like this He didn't know himself well, so he sent a book that he couldn't possibly like.

Another point is that as brothers and sisters, Xu Dahong knew to buy books that he might like to read as gifts for himself, but how could Xu Shuzhen not understand herself as well as Xu Dahong?
This is so wrong.

But Xu Manzhen had too little information, so she had to ask Xu Dahong, to know what kind of person Xu Shuzhen was in his mind.

For some reason, Xu Manzhen felt faintly in her heart that the character Xu Shuzhen was not a pure white lotus as she had analyzed when she read the script before.

Yes, she loves to cry, and always says, "It's all my fault..." or "It's all my fault..."

However, many times, it is really her fault.But she said this while crying with tears, as if she was taking the wrong thing on herself...

Is this her unintentional behavior, or did she deliberately cause the current situation?

Hope Xu Dahong can know the answer.

"Shuzhen..." Xu Dahong pondered for a moment, seeming to be thinking about what to say, "She's not bad in her mind, it's just that she cries too much sometimes... You are an older sister, so don't worry too much about it." gone."

Is that right?Xu Manzhen glanced at Xu Dahong suspiciously, did Xu Shuzhen just love to cry?
There was some disbelief in my heart, but I didn't say anything.

How should I put it, that she suspects that Xu Shuzhen is not the white lotus that she looks like?

Maybe it's because she spent too long in the entertainment industry in her previous life. She was used to seeing all kinds of performances in the industry, so she never believed in "white lotus".

But what fans like to do the most is to shape their idol into a "white lotus".In the face of such fans, the reactions of celebrities are also very different. Some celebrities are very frank and generously admit that what fans like is not the real self, but there are also some celebrities, no matter what hidden rules in private, but On the face, but really put on the appearance of a white lotus.

In fact, in a small circle, who can not know who?Such a star just makes others laugh and vomit.

But now, Xu Manzhen realized that she really didn't know what kind of attitude she should use to face Xu Shuzhen. Was this little white lotus of hers the real white lotus, or was it just an illusion she had tried to cover up?
