Moonlight Exposes the Works of a Concubine's Daughter Marrying into Royalty The Thoughts of a Princess, Thirty-Seven Hot Potatoes!
Just as the mother and daughter were arguing, the person who caused their argument lay on the flower-patterned bed, staring blankly at the plain canopy above her head.
Recalling the scene in the afternoon, recalling Ouyang Jing's dull yet fiercely burning eyes like two clusters of flames, Jiuniang couldn't help but feel extremely embarrassed and anxious.
I really resent myself for being weak and powerless, otherwise I would have taught that arrogant and lawless tyrant a good lesson!
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but fiercely grab the quilt under her body and vent her anger.
What made her most embarrassed was still the scene where she wrapped herself tightly in a cloak and met Qing An, so she could only come up with an excuse that she was waiting for her to be bored, so she went to climb a fake mountain, but looking at Qing An's eyes, she also knew how ridiculous this excuse was.
Alas...
Fortunately, Qing Xing was a clever and steady person, and she quickly helped her cover up and returned to the house.
It's all because of that stupid tyrant...
"Miss, Third Miss is here!" Just then, a voice came from outside the green bamboo door.
Uh...
She quickly got out of bed, but couldn't help being shocked again.
After that day, although she had established a friendly relationship with the three sisters, it seemed that they were not close enough to visit each other casually, let alone one-sidedly. Moreover, she had never visited Huaying Courtyard even once.
" Ninth sister, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell again?" Just as she was thinking this, Third Sister had already entered the room accompanied by Qingyi.
"Third sister!" Ninth sister hastily made a bow, "I'm fine, I just walked into trouble last night, and since there was nothing to do in the afternoon, I took a nap. My laziness has let my sister see me in a bad light!"
Listening to her naive and honest words, San Jie couldn't help but laugh, then the two sat down, sipping tea and chatting idly.
" Ninth sister, the craftsmanship of the people in your house is not bad, but there's one thing, that is, this tea is too tasteless." Suddenly said the third sister.
"Uh..." Jiujie was taken aback, and Qing'an and Qingtao, who were waiting outside the screen, were also taken aback.
"Sister, the green bamboo in my house may not have any other skills, but this tea is still brewed quite well. Why don't you take it and use it?" But then the three sisters threw out another sentence that made Jiu sister even more astonished.
"Sister, this... but..." She looked at San Jie again, then at Qing Ci who was standing behind her with her head down and hands hanging by her side. Jiu Jie didn't know how to react anymore.
"What's wrong, Ninth Sister doesn't believe?" Third Sister also looked at her with a face that was both smiling and not smiling, as if joking, yet extremely serious.
“……”
"Qingzhao, borrow something from Ninth Sister's place, go and get the tea infuser!" said Third Sister again.
"Yes!" Qing Zhi responded and left.
Soon, the tea was ready, a top-grade white tea, which proved to be excellent. The soup was bright yellow and clear, with a fresh and mellow flavor.
It's just that because of this, she was sent away with a small matter, and as far as she knew, Qing Zhi had always been her confidant.
It's said that she will be leaving the palace soon, and this heart of hers is something that must be taken away. But why does he want to send her off?
"Are you not satisfied, Ninth Sister?" asked Third Sister again.
"This... isn't right!" Ninth Sister hastily said, "It's just..."
"What's the big deal?" The third sister smiled again, "Anyway, I'll be leaving soon, and Mother has arranged for many people to follow me. It's not good to leave you with nothing to remember me by."
Listening to these slightly melancholic words, looking at that clear and cold yet sincere face, Jiu Si'er didn't decline anymore, and bowed deeply to San Si'er, "Then Xiao Jiu will obey, thank you sister!"
Although she didn't understand the true intention of the three sisters sending her a hairpin, she believed that in this deep and secluded mansion, there was still kindness and sincerity.
"Qingzhao, you can't bear to part with me, is that it?"
Facing the cool breeze of dusk, San Jie wrapped her cloak around her and turned to look at Qing Qi behind her.
"It's... Miss!" Qing Xi couldn't help but choke back a sob.
"Don't be like this..." San Jie'er stopped in her tracks, a hint of sorrow flashing across her clear and beautiful eyes. "Don't worry, your new master is better than me!"
“……”
"Keen, but not suspicious; clever, but not arrogant. Looking at her actions and the tacit understanding between her and the maid by her side, she must be a kind person. As long as you're sincere to her, I think she won't treat you unfairly!" The third sister said with a hint of melancholy.
If Ninth Sister really didn't accept her maid, she wouldn't force it, because an unprovoked gift would only raise suspicions.
And again it was so abrupt, she still used that joking tone, really didn't expect her cousin to actually accept.
Two points can be seen: one is that this cousin trusts her and believes in her character; the other is that this cousin is smart enough to know that she is not a reckless person.
It really touched her, and they regretted not meeting earlier!
She wasn't shooting randomly, the reason for this was mainly to prevent her mother from being deceitful, and after she got married, she would play those despicable tricks again.
Of course, it also contains the idea of placing her own people around Jiu Si Er to prepare for the future. After all, Liu Si Er is her own sister, and their mother has a short temper, so she can't help but make plans.
So she felt ashamed and because of her shame, she pitied this cousin even more.
It would be great if she were her real younger sister...
The third sister couldn't help but let out a soft sigh.
"What's wrong, miss?" Qingji asked immediately.
"Nothing!" The third sister shook her head, looking at Qingzhao, "Let's go back, I'll tell you all about it when we get back. Tomorrow, you can come to your new master's place!"
"Yes, miss!"
Just as San Jie and Qing Zhi were discussing the change of ownership, the 9th sister's house was also not calm because of this matter.
"What's wrong with you all? Each and every one of you looks so gloomy. Is it that you don't believe me or is it that you don't believe in yourselves?"
“……”
"Green apricot, green peach, you two listen up. If you don't believe me, then go find someone else to rely on. If you don't believe in yourselves, then I have nothing more to say."
Because she is from a modern background, Jiuniang has always been lenient when it comes to treating others, but this does not mean that she can be manipulated by them, so these words were spoken solemnly and profoundly.
"Miss......" The two maids were startled and simultaneously knelt down with a "thud", tears streaming down their faces.
The ninth sister ignores everyone and just looks out of the window.
Qing Xiang hastily stepped forward and said in front of Jiu Jie'er, "Miss, we certainly believe you, we also believe ourselves, and we hope that Miss will spare us..."
"Girl, we are just confused for a moment. I'm afraid that Qingtiao has come and divided the good feelings you have towards us..." Of course, Qingtao was the most sincere.
"Alright," seeing that it was enough, she used a combination of kindness and authority to calm them down. The ninth sister's expression softened as she pulled the two up, "Do you think our feelings for each other over the years are just superficial? Alright now, don't lose face in front of my people, and even more so, don't let others look down on us."
The two girls nodded in agreement as soon as they heard it.
Watching the two of them, Jiu Si'er slowly exhaled a breath.
The maidservant by her side was naturally easy to deal with, but there was one place she had to go, which was the third madam's residence.
Three sisters' good intentions have turned into a hot potato in her hands!
Alas...
After all, she grew up in a better environment and never had her kind of worries about everything, always being cautious and careful.
