Chapter 23 Sudden Accidents
"What?" Yu Xinya didn't react for a while, and froze in place. Ning Wan'er frowned, and glanced at Yu Xuanji meaningfully.
"Since Miss Fourth gave a gift, why don't you say it? Is this a slap in the face of Princess Ben? Chu Wanwan snorted coldly. Said unhappily, "Princess Ben's joke is so good-looking? ”
When Chu Wanwan said this, the accusation against Yu Xuanji just now also became slightly angry.
"Hmph, look at the aggrieved appearance of the fourth young lady with her head down, if someone else knows, maybe you will think that we have bullied it!"
"Not really! I think these four young ladies are really deep in their thoughts! ”
"Such a woman, our family can't do it!"
Everyone's topic has been around Yu Xuanji, and the look of ridicule and mockery has been directed at her.
Yu Xuanji lowered her head, still silent.
Yu Xinya didn't expect things to develop in this direction, just now I heard that Yu Xuanji prepared a birthday gift and gave it in advance, and her annoyed and angry heart gradually calmed down.
"Hehe, why didn't Xuanji say it since she gave a gift?" Ning Wan'er suddenly laughed, looking at Yu Xuanji's eyes, not to mention how kind she was, "I don't know what gift Xuanji gave?" I don't know as a mother, so why don't you take it out and see it? ”
has a lot of high-sounding words, which seems to be relieving Yu Xuanji on the surface, but secretly sarcastically mocking her for disrespecting her mother-in-law!
Yu Xuanji sneered in her heart, then raised her head, a trace of resentment flashed in her eyes, looked at everyone, and stopped talking.
Which one of the people present was not a human spirit, looking at Yu Xuanji's appearance, there seemed to be something unspeakable, and she suddenly became curious, and even Chu Wanwan just glanced at her.
"Mother, it's not that Xuanji deliberately didn't tell her mother that Xuanji prepared a gift, originally Xuanji didn't want to prepare a gift, for fear of bringing bad luck to her grandmother, after all, Xuanji is known as a nemesis, but it's my grandmother's birthday, so I couldn't help but embroider a painting and gave my grandmother before her birthday to express Xuanji's blessings." Yu Xuanji sighed, looked at everyone, and said slowly.
Seeing the sympathy in the eyes of the ladies, Yu Xuanji sneered in her heart and continued: "Xuanji thought that her grandmother would not accept it, but she didn't expect that her grandmother really accepted Xuanji's gift, and Xuanji was really happy!" The choking in his tone was so obvious.
There was a smile in Zhang's eyes: "The fourth girl is a filial piety." ”
Everyone also suddenly realized, it was not that Yu Xuanji didn't give gifts, but she was afraid of bringing disaster to her grandmother, so she didn't give gifts in public on her birthday, and then she liked her grandmother, so she secretly gave it, what a filial child!
"Hehe, it seems that we have misunderstood the fourth young lady......" Mrs. Li, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, said with a smile, then beckoned, motioned for Yu Xuanji to walk over, and patted the back of her hand, "It's a beautiful girl!" ”
"Yes, yes, I heard that the martial arts are good, and it is really the tiger girl of the gate!"
Ning Wan'er held the teacup in her hand for a moment, and then returned to nature.
Yu Xinya bit her lip, and a cold voice came: "It's my fault, I shouldn't let the fourth sister make a fool of herself in public." ”
Yu Xuanji glanced at Yu Xinya cautiously, and was about to say something, but Chu Wanwan said sarcastically: "The eldest lady is really not as good as the fourth miss, knowing that the fourth miss is destined to be a gift, and let the fourth miss give a gift, isn't this a slap in the mouth of the old lady?" ”
Chu Wanwan is used to being domineering, and he doesn't like Yu Xinya to keep pressing on his head, and he will make sarcastic remarks when he gets the opportunity.
She is the princess favored by the emperor, so she is naturally not afraid of anything!
Yu Xinya tightly wrung the handkerchief in her hand, trying her best to hide the anger in her heart.
Ning Wan'er frowned, and then laughed: "What the princess said is that Ya'er didn't think it through, Ya'er, and she didn't ask her grandmother for her guilt!" ”
"No need." Zhang opened his mouth slightly, and then glanced at Yu Xuanji deeply, as if he wanted to see Yu Xuanji through, Yu Xuanji looked at Zhang's eyes generously, and did not dodge at all, with a sincere smile in his eyes.
A trace of doubt crossed Zhang's heart, and he shifted his gaze: "The gift of the four girls is excellent, I like it very much, I chant Buddha all the year round, but I am not afraid of the name of this nemesis, if you want to see it, let's take a look together." As he spoke, he instructed Lan'er beside him to fetch the cloth shaft.
Yu Xuanji looked at Chu Wanwan, but saw a trace of disdain flashing in her eyes, but the glances that glanced out of the door from time to time revealed her curiosity.
After a while, Lan'er retrieved the cloth shaft, and everyone gathered around, and when they saw the embroidered and vivid statue of Guanyin, there was a sound of admiration around.
"Yes, that's good!" Mrs. Li nodded with satisfaction, "I didn't expect the fourth lady's embroidery work to be so high!" ”
Mrs. Shangshu Wang of the Ministry of War also nodded: "It's indeed different." As he spoke, he touched the stitch, and a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, "It seems that something is wrong!" ”
When Yu Xinya saw this embroidered picture, she knew that this embroidered picture was much better than her own white jade Guanyin, and tried her best to suppress the anger in her heart, and reluctantly praised: "The fourth sister is really a blockbuster, sister, I am willing to bow down!" ”
"Where did the eldest sister say, the eldest sister must have spent a lot of thought and money looking for the white jade Guanyin, but my embroidery picture was only embroidered by myself, in the end, it is not worth a penny."
Yu Xuanji said with a smile, Mingli depreciated himself worthless, but secretly said that this embroidered picture contained his true heart.
Yu Xinya smiled faintly, lowered her eyes, and did not answer again.
"The embroidery of the fourth sister is really good, can the younger sister learn more from the fourth sister in the future?" Yu Huilan smiled lightly and whispered in Yu Xuanji's ear.
Yu Xuanji raised her eyebrows and responded lightly: "If the second sister has time, then come to my yard." ”
"Look!" Suddenly, a lady shouted, looking at Mrs. Wang in surprise, who was holding the embroidered picture and looking at it carefully, her mouth opened wide, her eyes widened, and she looked incredulous.
Everyone was puzzled and looked at her eyes, but only the ladies standing with her saw it, and the ladies were also stunned.
When Mrs. Wang saw this, she turned over the embroidered picture, and when she saw the words "Happiness and longevity will last forever" on it, everyone was silent, and their eyes were full of envy.
Ning Wan'er stood up suddenly, walked a few steps quickly, looked at the embroidery picture incredibly, opened her mouth to say something, but didn't say it.
And Zhang on the side was also stunned, she didn't find that there was another mystery behind her, and suddenly, the love in her eyes flowed out strongly, and she picked up the embroidery picture: "Okay, good!" ”
"It's double-sided embroidery!" Finally someone called out, Yu Xuanji also became the protagonist, facing everyone's problems, Yu Xuanji smiled slightly, blessed with a blessed body, "Ladies praise falsely, Xuanji is just on the mountain and has nothing to do, it happened that the master has a book on this subject, so he learned it, but he didn't expect to succeed." ”
"Self-taught, what a clever woman!"
"yes, how long will it take to learn!"
Chu Wanwan was also amazed, the jealousy in her heart became more and more vigorous, and she suddenly found that she had been stepped on, and shouted: "Who dares to step on this princess!" Don't you want to die? ”
As soon as she finished speaking, Bao Ying knelt down and kept kowtowing: "The princess forgives her sins, it was the slave who was careless, the slave just wanted to see the embroidery of the fourth lady, but she didn't expect to step on the princess, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" ”
The sound of kowtowing louder than one after another silenced everyone, the affairs of the barbarian princess were not something they could manage!
Yu Xinya's eyes turned slightly, and she hurriedly said: "It's only because the embroidery of the fourth sister is so good, which makes the maids feel strange, and I hope the princess won't be surprised!" ”
"Hmph, what's the big deal! The rough skills dare to be brought here for people to see, if this princess would have hid in the room and secretly cried! Seeing Yu Xinya say this, Chu Wanwan also blamed Yu Xuanji for the fact that her feet were stepped on, if it wasn't for the embroidery picture she suddenly took out, how could she be injured!
Yu Xuanji saw Yu Xinya's smug smile in the corner of her eyes, blessed her body, and said in a sincere tone: "The princess forgives her sins, Xuanji's skills naturally cannot be compared with the princess's, if it weren't for the eldest sister mentioning it, Xuanji wouldn't have taken it out." ”
"Humph!" Chu Wanwan glared at Yu Xinya fiercely, turned around and left.
Yu Xinya's smile froze instantly.
Yu Xuanji's lips, who lowered her head, evoked a mocking smile.
Seeing this, everyone quickly changed the topic and congratulated Zhang, who also smiled and coped, while Baoying on the side had long since disappeared.
Yu Xinya didn't say a word more, just sipped tea and chatted with the daughter beside her.
"Miss, the slave will help you refill the cup." A little maid walked over slowly and said respectfully to Yu Xuanji.
Yu Xuanji smiled, didn't think much about it, and opened the lid of the cup, but the maid shook her hand and poured the tea on her.
"Miss forgiveness!" The little maid was startled and immediately knelt down.
Everyone looked at this side, and Ning Wan'er said with a smile: "Xuanji's clothes are dirty, go and change them." ”
Yu Xuanji took a deep look at the little maid, saw that her body was trembling, and she had no intention of asking, nodded slightly, blessed her body, and left.
Baoyue on the side looked at Yu Xuanji's clothes and sighed: "Miss, that maid is obviously deliberate!" ”
"Hmm." Yu Xuanji nodded, glanced around, and said lightly, "What about Baoxing?" ”
"Baoxing said that she had a stomachache and went to the thatched house, strange, why hasn't she come for so long?" Baoyue muttered quietly, but Yu Xuanji's eyes darkened, Baoxing was already Yu Xinya's person, but this time is gone, what is the conspiracy?
When the two were about to go back to Xuanxiang Pavilion, Baorong hurried over and said with a smile: "It can be regarded as catching up with the fourth young lady, our eldest lady said that the courtyard of Xinxiang Pavilion is close, let the fourth young lady go to the eldest lady to change clothes." ”
"Well, let's go." Yu Xuanji nodded and followed behind Baorong.
Baorong was surprised that Yu Xuanji was so easy to speak, but he didn't think much about it, anyway, his task was completed.
Yu Xuanji was thinking about what Yu Xinya wanted to do, if she avoided it herself, maybe they would think of other tricks that they couldn't prevent!
Besides, if you have martial arts, what are you afraid of?
Walking into the side room, Baorong took a piece of clothing in: "The figure of the fourth lady is similar to that of the eldest lady, and the fourth lady can naturally wear the clothes of the eldest lady." As he spoke, he was about to change Yu Xuanji's clothes, but Yu Xuanji said, "You go down, it's good to have Baoyue." ”
"Yes, Miss Four!" Bao Rong turned sideways and left, but there was a smug look in his lowered eyes.
"Baoyue." Yu Xuanji called softly, "You wait for me here, I'll come when I go, if someone comes to ask, just say I'm tired and want to take a nap." ”
Baoyue walked to Yu Xuanji's side, her eyes were full of doubts, but she didn't ask more, she answered, signaling that she knew.
Yu Xuanji nodded with satisfaction, jumped out of the window, carefully avoided the others, and looked for Baoxing's figure along the way.
