Wang simu picked up the wine glass subconsciously. It was only then that she realized that there was something wrong with the wine glass. It was yellow jade in color with a touch of dark red.
At first glance, Wang simu thought that it was an ordinary Jade cup, but when she held it in her hand, she realized that it was actually made of colored glass.
The color was like jade, with a blood-red color inside … Wang si MU’s hand trembled, and her aunt’s sweet wine spilled on the table and her dress.
“Aiya, how could you be so careless?”
The aunt quickly threw the wine pot and cup aside and took out a handkerchief to wipe the wine stains on Wang simu’s dress.
The Dragon blood glass?
Wang simu was stunned. Colored glass was precious to begin with, and dragon blood colored glass was made from an extremely rare type of earth in the Western regions, and the production rate was extremely low.
When the Western Region and the Central Plains were close, dragon blood glass was often used as a tribute and sent to the Central Plains. It was usually made into vessels and wine cups, and only used when the Emperor invited his ministers to a banquet.
As the relationship between the Western regions and the Central Plains gradually cooled, dragon blood glass had not been sold to the Central Plains for many years, and it was difficult for the nobles in the capital to find it. Most of them were kept at home and occasionally used by him.
However, it would definitely not be used for a banquet.
She quickly glanced around and found that the table was full of dragon blood glass cups. It was a whole set of glass cups, and its value was enough to buy two Xu mansions.
After her aunt wiped her clean, she filled her cup again and said, “”Are you tired?”
Her tone was mixed with concern.
Beating was beating, but this was a battle of positions? She actually values me a lot. Is this what the matriarch of the Xu family is trying to express …
Wang simu pursed her lips and did not say anything. She was a little touched. She understood the respect and importance that the Xu family’s matriarch had for her.
come, try these dishes. They are all unique to our Xu family. You can’t eat them outside.
Her aunt introduced the dishes on the table enthusiastically, fully playing the role of the hostess and future mother-in-law.
There were indeed a few dishes that Wang simu had never tried before, and her eyes lit up.
The crispy skin of the roast duck was sliced and wrapped with a thin layer of dough. It was delicious and appetizing.Braised meatballs that looked ugly, but were soft and tender in the mouth, with a moderate amount of saltiness;The fragrant, crispy, yet not greasy braised pork …
Although the Xu family was a newly promoted “noble family,. their financial resources could not be underestimated … Just as Wang simu thought of this, her gaze suddenly froze. She was staring at the small porcelain jar filled with chicken soup!
He thought, “you’re not right!”
Wang simu was born in an official’s family, and she was very talented and had a strong ability to appreciate things. She quickly saw that the porcelain on the table was not simple, and every one of them was an antique.
An antique with a high collection value …
This is not normal, this is not normal, how can someone use an antique as a daily tool?
In the quiet atmosphere of the meal, miss Wang’s heart was in great shock.
After calming herself down, Wang si mu turned to observe the ladies at the table. That miss Su Su did not come to the table to eat, which meant that even if she married into the Xu family, she could only be a concubine.
Li Miaozhen’s personality was cold and indifferent, which was in line with her identity as the Holy Virgin of the heavenly sect.
Xu lingying and this girl from the southern border surprised Wang simu. Who eats like this? Aren’t they afraid of choking? aren’t they afraid of the heat? are they acting me?
If such a young child could act, it would be too scary.
However, if it wasn’t an act, how could a strict person like the Xu family’s matriarch tolerate their rudeness …
As Wang simu’s imagination ran wild, the meal ended.
She made a conclusion in her heart. Although the Xu family’s matriarch was skilled, she was not an aggressive matriarch. On the contrary, most of the time, she was gentle and forthright, just like a little girl.
What a terrifying woman.
At most, Xu lingyue had only inherited three to four parts of her mother’s skills. In Wang simu’s eyes, she was an expert, but not a strong opponent.
As for this little sister of the Xu family, she didn’t have a chance to test her yet.
So, after lunch, Wang si mu saw the little bean playing in the courtyard. She found an opportunity to come out alone, holding a plate of pastries in her hand. She waved and smiled,
“Lingying, come to big sister.”
When Xu Ling saw the food, he came over eagerly.
She really loved to eat. As long as there was food, it was easy to control her … Wang simu’s heart was filled with joy, and she said gently,”l heard from your sister that you were bullied in school?”
Xu Ling’s attention was on the cake. As he ate, he said aggrievedly, ‘”‘There’s a little fatty who stole my food …”
“Big pot has avenged me,” she announced loudly.
Xu lingyue wasn’t lying. Someone really bullied her, so she didn’t go to school. Poor child … Wang simu touched her head and said in a gentle tone,
“Do you still want to go to school?” The little boy shook his head.
“Then how about big sister teach you?”
The little boy glanced at the cake and nodded.
Wang simu smiled with relief. She could teach the child some quick knowledge. When she returned to the residence, the child would ” accidentally ” show his new knowledge to his parents.
The Xu family’s matriarch would definitely ask, and Xu lingying would tell her that he had quietly taught her how to read.
“All along, when the Xu family’s matriarch finds out, she’ll be grateful to me, but I’ll never claim credit for it .. “Come, let me teach you mathematics.”
After having lunch at the Hanlin Academy’s dining hall, Xu Xinian rode his horse out of the Imperial City and rushed home.
He kept feeling uneasy in his heart. Wang simu’s personality was quite strong and had her own opinions, while his mother’s happiness and anger were always on her face.
If Wang simu were to test her and make her mother unhappy, she would probably throw a tantrum on the spot..
