Rebirth cannon fodder

Chapter 6

Why are you crying?Seeing Xu Shuzhen's appearance, Xu Manzhen was stunned. What did she do? She didn't seem to have done anything. Why did Xu Shuzhen cry?The behavior of this person is too difficult to understand!
Now that I think about it, it seems... Xu Shuzhen, the heroine in this play, is very easy to cry... I took this play by myself, and when I read the script, my biggest worry was that I would not be able to cry anytime and anywhere.If the eyedrops are applied but the emotions are not in place, it will make the audience feel fake.She also thought of several particularly tragic things at the time, and used them when preparing to act.

But I didn't expect that the little girl in front of me was so powerful that she burst into tears as soon as she said she was crying.

However, many crying scenes are also a common problem of Qiong Yao's dramas, so she didn't think much about it when she read the script, but now, seeing Xu Shuzhen crying softly in front of her like this, her posture is so elegant, she began to feel that there was something wrong with her. Something is wrong.

She obviously didn't say anything, and she didn't do anything!Just stared at her...

Why is she crying?
Still crying so beautifully, pear blossoms are as charming as rain.

"Third Sister! Did Manzhen bully you again?" A little girl rushed over from the side, accusing angrily.

What and what!When did you bully Xu Shuzhen?She still hasn't figured out what's going on, okay?
Xu Manzhen couldn't help frowning, what's going on, are these two people trying to blackmail her, are they singing a double reed?

"Miss Four." Bai Xin on the side quickly said, "Miss Second has never done anything..." As a personal maid, she must stand up immediately at this time to protect the reputation of her master, and, just now The second miss really didn't do anything, it's a bit too much for the fourth miss to say that.

Even if my lady has a bad reputation, but if you haven't done something, you haven't done it. You can't wrong people like this!
"Our master is talking, why do you, a servant, interrupt!" The little girl scolded, "Go away!"

With tears in Bai Xin's eyes, she bowed her head and stepped back.

Xu Manzhen was furious in her heart, she didn't say anything, she didn't do anything, and she was insulted by this little girl. Xu Shuzhen didn't say, how could her little girl be scolded like this?

She squinted her eyes, beckoned Bai Xin, called her aside, and began to speak carefully.The little girl stared at her, but saw that the little girl nodded at first, then shook her head. She didn't know what Xu Manzhen said to her again, so she finally nodded.

Then, the little girl ran away quickly.

Hmph, are you afraid that you will hit her girl?The little girl was very proud, and raised her head high.

Xu Manzhen looked at this little girl with a funny face, she was Miss Fourth, what was her name, by the way, her name was Xu Yingzhen.In the script, the fourth sister and the fifth brother seem to be born by the third aunt, so the third aunt is usually more arrogant.

As for Miss San, her aunt did not appear in the play. In the background, it was said that her biological mother was a maidservant of Xu Shixun, the owner of the Xu Mansion, who climbed into bed to conceive her, and died of bleeding after birth.And the second lady was sent to be raised under the name of the second aunt.

Therefore, Miss San's position in the mansion is very embarrassing, but the halo of the heroine is also very powerful. Miss San, who has no biological mother to take care of her, has such a bright ending in the end, but Xu Manzhen, who is a pro daughter with a brother and a mother, ended up with Miserable.

It can be said that what she got was what Xu Manzhen lost in the end.

However, no matter how much she wanted to change the ending, she couldn't bear to see her maidservant being scolded by Xu Yingzhen. At that time, she grabbed Bai Xin's hand, looked at Xu Yingzhen coldly, and asked coldly : "Dare to ask this little girl, who are you, why are you swearing at people in my Xu Mansion?"

"Xu Manzhen, don't think that everyone in the house is afraid of you, I, Xu Yingzhen, am not afraid of you!" The little girl raised her head high and snorted heavily.

In the script, Xu Yingzhen is Xu Shuzhen's most staunch ally. When Xu Yingzhen was bullied by Xu Manzhen, she stepped forward many times... At that time, I really thought that this was a character who was not afraid of power.

But now, Xu Manzhen had to suspect that Xu Yingzhen was just playing the role of a horse boy.Wanting to stand up for others indiscriminately, isn't there a problem with IQ?
"So you are the fourth lady of the Xu family, my fourth sister Xu Yingzhen." Xu Manzhen said coldly, "Why didn't I hear someone call me second sister just now!"

"What right do you have for me to call you Second Sister!" Xu Yingzhen said in disbelief.

"Do you want to ask your father to comment?" Xu Manzhen also said coldly.Thinking of her possible tragic fate in the future, this young girl who is young but energetic and has a strong fighting capacity has contributed a lot, and she is so unreasonable, Xu Manzhen has no way to be too polite to her.

And today's matter, she was completely reasonable, she wanted to make a bigger fuss, and she also wanted to let Father Xu know that not all disputes were caused by herself.Like Xu Yingzhen, Xu Shuzhen sometimes caused trouble on purpose.

"Yingzhen, stop arguing with the second sister, I'm all to blame today..." Xu Shuzhen covered her face and sobbed again, "I heard that the second sister wanted to read, but she couldn't find a suitable one, so I borrowed an extra book. Ben sent it to her... but I didn't think it would not suit the second sister's taste..."

"What books does she read!" Xu Yingzhen said irritably, "Sister, how many times have I told you to ignore her from now on, Manzhen is an unreasonable shrew... the better you treat her , the more she treats you too much... If you are as good as me, she won't dare to bully you..."

The more she talked, the more complacent she became, but unexpectedly, a slap approached quickly, with a sound of "slap...", a slap fell on Xu Yingzhen's face, and turned her face away.

Xu Yingzhen didn't realize it for a while, and when she realized what happened, she covered her face and yelled, "Xu Manzhen! How dare you hit me! I told you to look good..."

"Why don't I dare to hit you!" Xu Manzhen shook her hands and said coldly, "I am your second sister, and nothing happened with your third sister just now, and you ran over and yelled, saying nothing but I'm 'Manzhen', can you call me my name? What did you say just now? I'm a scholar in the Xu Mansion, how can I allow you to be so rude? Hitting you is to teach you! lest you grow up later , being scolded as someone who lives and no one supports him!"

It's not that easy to take advantage of her!Back then, she was able to become a heroine from being a minor player, but she also went through countless blood and tears.If a little girl whose status is not as good as hers can bully her, then she might as well die quickly.

"I won't tell you! I'm going to tell Dad!" Xu Yingzhen scolded while jumping.

"I know you listen to your third sister, then you should ask your third sister carefully, did you do the right thing or not?" Xu Manzhen stared at Xu Yingzhen coldly, then glanced at Xu Shuzhen with cold eyes, and then said, "Ask yourself carefully, what happened just now, and what should you call me, the second sister. If you still don't understand, then I will see you again in the future and teach you once."

After speaking, Xu Manzhen walked away.

"Second Miss..." Bai Xin just rushed over, but was dragged back by Xu Manzhen, stumbling, trying to speak, "I think what you said just now, Second Miss, is very good!" She vented her anger, which made her feel so touched.

"Oh, what's so good about it?" Xu Manzhen let out a long breath, slowed down, and asked.

"It seems... makes sense." Bai Xin tilted her head and thought for a while, "It's very different from the second lady that Bai Xin heard about before."

"Then what was the second young lady you heard about before?" Xu Manzhen asked her.Just now, when Bai Xin introduced herself, she said that she was newly transferred to serve her, and it has only been a few days. No one knows where the previous maid has gone now.

As for what happened, it was obvious that Xu Manzhen must have caused trouble, so the eldest maid was sold out by the fourth aunt who was in charge.

But now Xu Manzhen has no memory of the past, and there is nothing she can do to save that girl.

"I heard from them before... Second Miss is the most unreasonable." Bai Xin said honestly, "That's why everyone was so afraid of being assigned to Yiye Garden... At the time of the arrangement, it really didn't matter if slaves and maidservants were at home. I can't rely on the relationship...that's why I was assigned to One Leaf Garden."

This kid is too honest, right?Xu Manzhen's face turned dark when she heard that.However, if he wasn't such an honest child, how could he be arranged to be Xu Manzhen's personal maid in One Leaf Garden?Xu Manzhen's personal maid is not easy to be, she must be beaten, scolded, and blamed.

Xu Manzhen's reputation in the Xu Mansion is so great that only Master Xu can compare with her. They are all famous.

"But now Bai Xin feels that although Second Miss sometimes gets angry and likes to scold people, she is not as scary as they said." Bai Xin continued.

Does Bai Xin feel that she is praising herself?Xu Manzhen wiped off the sweat, and didn't bother to think about it... Even if she was praising herself.

"Second Miss, do you really like this book?" Bai Xinyang asked with the book in her hand.

Oh, I forgot to return this "The Analects of Women" to Xu Shuzhen just now, Xu Manzhen thought, she borrowed a copy of "The Analects of Confucius" for herself, what does that mean?
Based on my own understanding of the script, Xu Manzhen doesn't look like a person who would like to read books like "The Analects of Women".

So when the eldest brother Xu Dahong introduced the book to himself, did he take a novel like "Golden Jade Love" or a story book, but why did Xu Shuzhen send "The Analects of Confucius" specifically?
Could it be that she just didn't understand her second sister?

Or, she wanted to let her second sister learn something. For women in the ancient boudoir, "The Analects of Women" is of course more useful than books like "Golden Jade".

Didn't Xue Baochai in "A Dream of Red Mansions" also persuade Lin Daiyu not to watch "The Romance of the West Chamber"?
Xu Shuzhen was kind, but unfortunately she didn't know her second sister too well.

However, isn't Xu Manzhen's core changed now? Maybe I can read "The Analects of Women" by myself?

"Bring it here and let me have a look." Xu Manzhen said, took the book from Bai Xin, and flipped through it.

"Whoever is a woman... first learn how to stand up...how to stand up...just be chaste...cleanness is pure...chaste is honor..." Xu Manzhen struggled to read just over 20 words, why? Well, because one is a vertical version, and the other is that there is no punctuation, so when reading, you have to guess where the punctuation is.Traditional Chinese is not traditional, although dizzy, but still recognized, the problem is not too big.Fortunately, after reading a few sentences, she discovered the pattern, and the four-character sentence is much easier than the real Analects.

Then it looks much easier, but the content is too empty. From the beginning to the end, it talks about how women should behave. Chapter 1 talks about how women should stand up, Chapter 2 talks about how women should learn to act, and Chapter 3 talks about...

Xu Manzhen yawned when she read it. Although this woman's Analects of Confucius is not very difficult, it is quite easy to understand, but she dares to vote. If the person holding this book is the real Xu Manzhen, I am afraid that this book has already been written. torn off.
