291 Look the other way

On the birthday of the Duke of Yuguo, most of the courtiers in Beijing came to congratulate him. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

When the carriage of Xie Mansion arrived, the Yuguo Mansion was already very lively, after a few people got off the car, Xie Chen led Xie Yijiang to the main hall to congratulate the Yuguo Gong on his birthday, and the old lady took Xie Jiaxuan and a few people to the back garden, where there were already many female dependents waiting, as soon as the old lady Xie arrived, she was taken to the place where the old lady Feng was, and Xue Rou and the three were taken by the maid to the pavilion where the young woman was.

Xie Yiliu is familiar with many people, and as soon as she arrived, someone immediately greeted her.

"Xie Si, why are you here so late, Sister Feng and I have been waiting for you for a long time."

Xie Yiliu smiled and saluted the man, and then said: "There were some things in the house that were delayed for a while, so I came late, Sister Luo and Sister Feng forgive me." ā€

Feng Baozhen sat aside, with a fragrant bun on her head, a Lishui purple grinding gold step swayed obliquely inserted on the top of her hair, and a cherry red flower-sprinkled smoke long skirt lined her eyebrows.

After hearing Xie Yiliu's words, she just glanced at her with slightly raised eyes and nodded lightly, and didn't answer, obviously she didn't have a special impression of Xie Yiliu, but she was wearing a purple power suit next to her, with green silk behind her head, and Feng Baowei, who looked very energetic, looked behind Xie Yiliu with a pair of pretty eyes, and said curiously.

"Xie Si, who are the people behind you, and who is Xue Rou among them?"

As soon as Feng Baowei's words came out, Xie Yiliu had a smile in her eyes, but Xie Jiaxuan blushed in embarrassment.

She is the young lady of the Xie family, although she rarely attended banquets in Beijing before, but Feng Baowei said so bluntly that she didn't know her, which made her feel embarrassed.

Seeing this, Xue Rou patted Xie Yiliu's tightly clenched fingers, stepped forward and said with a light smile: "She is Miss Xie San, Xie Jiaxuan, and she is also the daughter of the Xie family, I am Xue Rou, and now I am temporarily living in the Xie Mansion and have seen Miss Feng Er." ā€

"You're Xue Rou?"

Feng Baowei ignored Xie Jiaxuan, but directly stepped forward two steps to stand in front of Xue Rou, a pair of pretty eyes showed a little bit of looking up and down at her, and said excitedly: "I heard that two days ago, His Royal Highness King Ling asked you for marriage on the street, and you were allowed to be the concubine of King Ling's mansion, but is it true?" ā€

The women around were all laughing, Feng Baowei was direct, she asked this maybe it was really just out of curiosity, but it was not a good thing for the person who was asked, they thought that Xue Rou would be dissatisfied, or say something to avoid it, who knew that she just smiled and said lightly: "There is such a thing." ā€

"It's true, so did you promise?" Feng Baowei's eyes widened.

Xue Rou shook her head with a smile and said: "Second Miss Feng is afraid that she has misunderstood, it was not King Ling who asked for marriage that day, but it was just because Xue Rou and His Royal Highness King Ling had some misunderstandings, which annoyed His Royal Highness King Ling, so His Royal Highness King Ling had this joke, and the truth was lost when it was passed on later." ā€

"Ah, I see." Feng Baowei showed a look of disappointment, obviously the gossip was not satisfied, but after a while, she muttered with understanding: "But that's right, I'll say how could Rong Thirteen's temperament suddenly say that he wants to marry a concubine, who can stand his neurotic character, if you really look down on him, it will be unfortunate......"

"Vivi!" Feng Baozhen frowned and looked at Feng Baowei to interrupt her words, and then whispered: "You are talking nonsense again, be careful that your grandmother knows about and punishes you." ā€

Feng Baowei stuck out her tongue, her round eyes full of cunning.

Feng Baozhen looked up at Xue Rou with a detached smile on her face, "Miss Xue, don't mind, Weiwei is young and careless, and sometimes she speaks without intention, Miss Xue, don't take it to heart." ā€

"Miss Feng is polite, Second Miss Feng is innocent and hearty, and what she said is just a joke, Xue Rou naturally won't take it seriously."

Feng Baozhen heard Xue Rou's words of praising Feng Baowei, and looked up at Xue Rou's eyebrows with a shallow smile, which were clear and transparent, without the slightest hint of teasing and disobedience, the alienation on Feng Baozhen's face faded a lot, and the bottom of his eyes softened a lot.

She and Feng Baowei are both from a family of military generals, they have been influenced by their father since they were children, and they sweat in the training ground like men, but they don't know much about poetry and books, and their temperament is inevitably different from that of ordinary women from noble families, and there are also many rules that should be expected of boudoir girls, she knows that the reason why these seemingly amiable noble ladies and ladies in front of her are friendly with their sisters is that they still see the faces of their father and the Yuguo Mansion, and they are not less arranged in private, saying that they are vulgar, and no man will be willing to marry a woman like them in the future, But the two words that Xue Rou said casually just now made her hear a little sincerity.

Feng Baozhen looked at the green silk white skirt in the pavilion, only the magnolia hairpin on the top of her head was decorated all over her body, and the girl who fell into the crowd of flowers and branches around her was particularly conspicuous, with some smiles between her eyebrows, she glanced at Feng Baowei, who was smiling heartlessly, and said to Xue Rou: "Miss Xue is a reasonable person, Baozhen thanked the little sister on behalf of her, today is my father's birthday banquet, Miss Xue has come, then be casual, no need to be restrained, if there is anything to explain to the next person." ā€

After finishing speaking, she turned her head to look at Xie Yiliu and Xie Jiaxuan and said, "Miss Xie San, Miss Xie Si, you can just feel free, Shumin, you greet them for me first, I will go to see my grandmother with Weiwei first, and then come back to you later." ā€

The woman in yellow who was the first to talk to Xie Yiliu suddenly smiled and said: "Sister Feng's words are polite, here are all her own sisters and there are no outsiders, Sister Feng has something to do, we will greet ourselves, and we will not delay Sister Feng." ā€

The others laughed and agreed.

Feng Baozhen glanced at everyone when she heard this, and couldn't smile at the bottom of her eyes, but when she looked at Xue Rou again, she nodded at her specially, and the different attitudes between them made everyone understand that she looked at Xue Rou differently, and waited for Xue Rou to smile back, Feng Baozhen took Feng Baowei and left the pavilion together.

As soon as the Feng sisters left, a woman standing next to Luo Shumin looked at Xue Rou, who had an excellent face and almost compared to everyone, with a look of jealousy, and couldn't help but sarcastically when she saw her looking at the direction in which the Feng sisters left.

"What's so much to see when everyone is gone? The Feng sisters have always been above the top, and they look down on us people on weekdays, and they never intersect with us, but they didn't expect to be so kind to a person of unknown origin when they met for the first time, Miss Xue is really good. ā€

Xue Rou glanced at the person who spoke, and then looked sideways at Luo Shumin beside her, but saw that the woman who was still very close to Feng Baozhen just now heard the person say this about the Feng family sisters, although she didn't open her mouth to agree, but that look was also used to it, obviously it was not the first time she heard someone talking like this behind her back.
