Chapter 024: Unmasterable
However, what Xie Lingyun hoped to see never appeared. The worst thing is that Xie Yuhan and Xie Yuting turned out to be concubines of the prince in the palace. She felt that she didn't accept this, thinking about Xie Yuhan and Xie Yuting, who were only sixteen years old, she felt that she should do something, otherwise she would not be able to get over it with her conscience.
Xie Lingyun thought about it for another day, although she couldn't do it to the point of sacrificing herself for others, but watching the two young girls like flowers, jumping into the fire pit ignorantly, she found that she couldn't do it. In the end, she took Qiaofeng to Xie Yuhan, Qiu Yan didn't dare to let her follow, because she was afraid that Qiu Yan would stop her, and let Qiaofeng go, just if things were to go, the eldest lady's plan could not succeed, and Qiaofeng testified to her, and the eldest lady couldn't suspect her.
Xie Yuhan's yard is very different from Dream Garden, just some inconspicuous flowers and plants are planted in the middle of the yard, and there is no other arrangement, just from the yard, it can be seen that this is not as good as the scenery of Dream Garden.
As soon as she walked into the courtyard, Yan Hong had already greeted her, first gave a salute, and then said with a smile that could not be concealed: "The slave maid greets Miss Nine, is Miss Nine's illness cured, our Miss has been talking about it for the past two days, if there is something wrong, I would have gone to visit Miss Nine a long time ago." ”
Xie Lingyun twitched the corners of her mouth, and muttered in her heart, this maid is really talking nonsense in broad daylight, deceiving ghosts, she doesn't believe her ghostly words, Xie Yuting is afraid that she has been dizzy with joy in the past two days, how can she still think of her.
However, if she didn't stretch out her hand to hit the smiling person, Xie Lingyun could only smile: "I just felt a little better today, and I wanted to come out and walk around, and I happened to walk around the courtyard of the fifth sister, so I came in and asked the fifth sister for a cup of tea." After speaking, he took out the purse prepared in advance, stuffed it into her hand, and said kindly:
"This is what I usually embroider and play, it's not as good as my fifth sister's embroidery, if you don't dislike it, I'll take it, and I'll have to bother to make a good cup of tea, hehe." She was a little weak-hearted and said that the purse embroidered by the original owner before was embroidered by her.
Yan Hong began to be stunned, and secretly wondered in her heart, when did Miss Nine treat them so kindly, she held the purse in her hand a little stunned, and suddenly felt that there was something in it, and her heart sank, she didn't know what to do this time.
Qiaofeng, who was following behind, saw Yanhong taking the purse, but she only said that she stood there in a daze, displeased, and said in a deep voice: "Yanhong, didn't you hear Miss Nine say that she was thirsty, why didn't you invite Miss Nine into the house, but you had to stop in front." ”
She served in front of the eldest wife, and she didn't think much about Xie Lingyun's reward to Yanhong, she just didn't like Yanhong's style.
Yan Hong came back to her senses after being reprimanded, and hurriedly apologized: "Please atone for Miss Nine, and the slave will ask Miss Nine to meet our Miss." ”
Xie Lingyun smiled, not caring much about her offense just now, in fact, she didn't think that she had offended herself.
When Yan Hong entered the wing, she raised her eyes and saw a light purple blue lotus high-waisted Confucian skirt, faint purple, embroidered with a white rose on the skirt, no powder, but charming Xie Yuhan, who was sitting in front of the embroidery frame, embroidering something carefully with a needle and a thread.
stepped forward to take a closer look, and when she saw what was embroidered on the pink satin, Xie Lingyun twitched the corner of her mouth, although she didn't understand it very well, she also knew that Xie Yuhan was embroidering the knot.
Xie Yuhan probably noticed that there was someone around her, turned her head suddenly, and when she saw clearly who was beside her, her face turned red, as if she was hiding something, she stood up and said unnaturally:
"Ninth sister, how can you have time to come to Fifth Sister, hehe, please take a seat." Then she went on to tell Yan Hong to serve tea, but when she told Yan Hong, what she said made Xie Lingyun laugh when she heard it.
"You ignorant one, Miss Nine is here. Why don't you tell me first, I'll also go to greet Miss Nine, I really don't have any eyes at all, don't hurry up to serve tea, remember to serve good tea. ”
Yan Hong knew that this was her own young lady who annoyed her, because before Miss Nine entered the house, she didn't report it in advance, in fact, she was also very wronged, because Miss Jiu's behavior in the yard made her a little confused, and because of the scolding of Qiaofeng who served in front of the eldest lady, she was nervous, so she forgot to report to Miss first.
"Fifth sister, I went out for a walk, passed by your yard, because I was thirsty, I came in to ask for a cup of tea, you still don't let Yanhong make tea for me, don't you want me to be thirsty and can't talk to you." Xie Lingyun spoke out to relieve Yan Hong.
Xie Yuhan looked at Yan Hong and Xie Lingyun suspiciously, frowned and scolded Yan Hong to make tea, and then invited Xie Lingyun to sit at the small round table.
Before Yan Hong withdrew, she glanced at Xie Lingyun gratefully, and then quickly withdrew.
Xie Lingyun smiled at Yan Hong's back, she helped Yan Hong out of the siege, she didn't mean anything else, she just couldn't see her being scolded because of herself. Before sitting down, he took another deep look at the pink satin on the embroidery frame, and then walked over and sat down.
"I only heard that the ninth sister is not in good health in the past two days, but because of some things, I can't get out of my body to visit, and the ninth sister feels very good?" Xie Yuhan asked with a smile.
Xie Lingyun smiled slightly on her face, and said in her heart Even if you are fine, you don't have the heart to visit me. I knew in my heart that she didn't show it on her face, so she still replied with a smile:
"Thank you Fifth Sister for your concern, I feel good now, looking at the good weather today, I want to come out for a walk, these days I have seen the sky lying in bed, I feel very weak, I want to come out and walk around, maybe the illness will be all cured, so I unconsciously walked to the fifth sister, I came uninvited, and I hope that the fifth sister will not blame, hehe."
Xie Yuhan glanced at her with disdain, covered her mouth and smiled: "Look at what the ninth sister said, I look forward to the ninth sister coming to sit with me, but I can't expect to come, how can I blame you." ”
Xie Lingyun twitched the corners of her mouth, tired of dealing with these nonsense, and said bluntly: "The fifth sister's embroidery is really amazing, I just took a look, and I know that the fifth sister has put in a lot of effort, hehe, I just feel that the fifth sister embroiders that... It's still a little early. ”
Xie Yuhan's face flushed, and his expression became even more unnatural, but he still said stiffly: "I just have nothing to do, just embroider and play in my spare time, how can there be any early or late, ninth sister, you can not say it." ”
Xie Lingyun looked at her meaningfully, her smile slowly bloomed on her gorgeous little face, and she didn't say a word, just looked at her like this.
Xie Yuhan couldn't stand her eyes, his eyes flickered, and he said unnaturally: "How can the ninth sister look at me like this, it is impossible for me to tell a lie." ”
"Fifth sister, don't you have anything to tell me? Hehe, you know, we're sisters. Xie Lingyun finally stopped looking at her like this, but there were some things that she had to make clear first.
Xie Yuhan looked at her with a complicated expression, but said something that almost made Xie Lingyun fall, "Nine, ninth sister, the fifth sister knows that you must be angry with the fifth sister, you failed to enter with the fifth sister and enter the palace to serve the prince, but you can't blame me, I have already told you, but you are sick and missed this good marriage." When she said this, as if she was afraid of what Xie Lingyun would do, she hurriedly promised:
"But Ninth Sister, please rest assured, when I enter the palace, I will definitely find you a good family, you must believe me." After speaking, he seemed to be afraid that Xie Lingyun would not believe her, so he suddenly took Xie Lingyun's slender hand on the table, and said sincerely:
"Ninth sister, speaking of which, a few of our sisters, I am the closest to you, I have a good life, I will not forget you Ninth Sister, you have to rest assured."
Xie Lingyun's thunder is not light, where is this, how do you feel like she is afraid of herself, as if she is here to make trouble for her. After a thousand times of words in her heart, she finally lost to her conscience, and she said tentatively:
"Fifth sister, you are too careful, I don't mean this, as long as you live well, I am very happy in my heart, but, is it just that the son of the world, is it really the lover of the fifth sister?" After speaking, he looked at her seriously, not missing a trace of her expression.
Xie Yuhan was stunned, probably not expecting her to say this, first glanced away blankly, and then said faintly: "Ninth sister, for us young ladies who are concubines, isn't the prince not our beloved?" ”
Xie Lingyun's heart was shocked, and she saw that she must know about the world, but she glanced at the pink silk on the embroidery frame, and went through her words in her heart, and suddenly felt that this trip had no meaning, but there was a desolate feeling in her heart.
Looking up at Xie Yuhan, who was looking at the embroidery frame with a dazed expression, she felt that her nose was sour, if Xie Yuhan knew something about the prince, but she still chose to enter the palace, then what is her feeling in her heart now?
Xie Lingyun suddenly felt a little unable to stay, and had a feeling of concealment, got up and said, "Fifth sister, I suddenly remembered that there was something else, so I left here." ”
"Ninth Sister." Xie Yuhan stopped her and muttered: "From the day we were born, we are destined to live a happy life, and a single word determines the fate of our life, and we can only accept our fate." ”
Xie Lingyun clenched the hands at her side, she didn't turn her head, looked at the curtain, and said firmly: "Fifth sister, we can't choose identity, but fate can't be at the mercy of others." ”
"Hehehe." Xie Yuhan laughed out loud as if mocking, and said with self-deprecation: "Do we concubines still have a fate?" ”
"Fifth sister, I still have something to do, go back first." Xie Lingyun was shocked, seeing that she had been appointed, so there was no need to say more, and she wanted to get out of here quickly, not wanting to hear her again, such sad and helpless words.
Xie Yuhan stopped her again: "Ninth sister, thank you, although you didn't say anything, I guessed what you meant." He sighed faintly, and then said: "We concubines are all in the hands of the eldest lady, and we can't have a trace of intimacy, so we have become very selfish, I didn't think about it, hehe, in the end, I can get the ninth sister to treat me like this, I have lived in this house for sixteen years, and it is worth it, the ninth sister, the fifth sister remembers this love, if there is any day, the fifth sister will definitely pay it back, but, hehe, the fifth sister can only pay you back once, because the fifth sister is very selfish." ”
When Xie Lingyun heard these words, tears rushed into her eyes, she raised her head, didn't let the tears fall, and said in a hoarse voice:
"I don't let you have any love, because I didn't help you anything, you just need to live happily, don't accept fate, fate is sometimes in the hands of smart people." After speaking, she exhaled fiercely, there was still Qiaofeng outside, she couldn't let her find out what was wrong with her, adjust her mood, she didn't wait for the person behind her to say anything, she opened the curtain and walked out.
"Let's go." Qiao Feng instructed Hou outside the door, Xie Lingyun took steps, step by step, Xie Yuhan's words shocked her a lot, made her wake up, and also made her truly realize, a "Shu" word, what kind of fate should she face, what should she do now, can't fate really be in her own hands? Can she only be at the mercy of the eldest lady?
