"Cousin Xun, what are you doing? Cherry blossom viewing? An Xuehan looked at Xun Xuan with a smile, and a chill appeared in her eyes.

Xun Xuan smiled and said lightly: "Why don't you come with the second cousin?" ”

An Xuehan chuckled, with disdain on her face: "I can't do it, my mother is still waiting for me in the back garden, and I came today to give my cousin something." ”

Xun Xuan looked at the stack of clothes held by the slave behind An Xuehan silently, and raised her eyebrows: "The second cousin ran in person, could it be just to send me a piece of clothing?" ”

An Xuehan's indifferent face was a little warmer, and she stepped forward a little stiffly and held Xun Xuan's hand: "It was my cousin's mistake before, please don't take it to heart, this dress should be your cousin's apology to you, you must accept it!" ”

"Oh? So that's the case," Xun Xuan smiled, her beautiful eyes turned slightly, as if she was a little curious, "My second cousin is so dedicated to me, how dare my sister blame my cousin?" ”

"And what about this garment...... My cousin took it? An Xuehan asked cautiously, as if she was afraid that Xun Xuan would not accept it.

"Since it's my cousin's heart, my sister will accept it!" After saying that, Xun Xuan turned his head and glanced at Qu You.

Qu Youxin stepped forward and took the clothes from the maid's hand.

"By the way, there's one more thing." An Xuehan pretended to hold Xun Xuan's hand affectionately, and her tone was rare and gentle, which was extremely inconsistent with her usual arrogant personality.

"What?" Xun Xuan asked unhurriedly, waiting for An Xuehan to continue.

"This afternoon, my mother is holding a flower viewing banquet in the back garden, and I have to play the piano for everyone, and ask my cousin to do me a favor and put on this dress and dance for me, okay?" An Xuehan looked at Xun Xuan with a smile, but she didn't know what the real face hidden under that smiling face would be.

Xun Xuan was silent for a moment, a little embarrassed: "The second cousin is really embarrassed for her sister, my sister's clumsy dancing posture is really stretched compared to other sisters." ”

An Xuehan's face first flashed a moment of impatience, and then it softened again, and she said slowly: "Cousin Xun has such a good figure, why be modest?" If my cousin doesn't accept it, she won't forgive me as a cousin. ”

The corners of Xun Xuan's mouth floated with a touch of curvature: "Since the second cousin said so, how can my sister be embarrassed to refuse?" ”

"Cousin Xun is really understanding, then Cousin is waiting for you in the back garden?" When An Xuehan heard Xun Xuan's promise, a flower burst into laughter on her face.

After dealing with An Xuehan away, Xun Xuan quietly sat down on the rocking chair in the courtyard.

With the lesson of hiding wooden thorns in the clothes last time, Qu You checked the clothes sent by An Xuehan inside and out this time, and did not find anything wrong.

"This workmanship and materials are all of the highest quality, as well as the gems used to decorate this dress, each of which is very valuable, such a luxurious dress, the second lady did not keep it for herself, but gave it to you, Miss, do you really want to repair with Miss?" Qu You guessed.

"How could an arrogant person like An Xuehan bow to me for no reason? If something goes wrong, there must be a demon! It's not that simple. Xun Xuan exhaled lightly, looking at the gorgeous clothes in Qu You's hand, her eyes became deeper and deeper.

"Miss...... Do we still want to go to this flower-viewing banquet in the afternoon? Qu You's brows twisted together, and asked Xun Xuan in distress.

"Go, of course." Xun Xuan knew in her heart that this was a game set up for her by the Liu family and An Xuehan, no matter whether she went or not, trouble would always find her.

Just as Xun Xuan was holding her clothes and thinking about what to do, the familiar scolding voice of a woman suddenly came from the gate of the courtyard.

"Xun Zhi! You come out for me! Dead girl, the last time is not over yet! "Listen to the voice is Aunt Liang.

Several maids from Hanyunju hurriedly rushed out when they heard the sound and blocked Aunt Liang, who was about to break into the courtyard, at the door.

Qu Youqi stomped his feet: "It's this Aunt Liang again!" Recently, she came to target you when she had nothing to do, Miss, you tolerated her in every way, but she had to inch in, which is really annoying! ”

Xun Xuan stretched out her hand and pinched her eyebrows, and said lightly: "What are you angry?" The Liu family just wants to use her to block us and make me uncomfortable, if you are angry, won't you fall into the hands of the Liu family? ”

"Yes...... But this Liang is too rampant! I don't think I'm going to take you seriously! Qu You said angrily.

Xun Xuan chuckled lightly, and said calmly: "In this Anfu, how many people put me in their eyes?" ”

After saying that, Xun Xuan's brows stretched slightly, and she raised her eyes to Qi Yin and said, "Go and invite the Liang family in!" ”

Chi Yin: "Miss, the Liang family is rude, in case I really want to fight you......"

"She's not a tiger, what are you afraid of her doing? Let her in. Xun Xuan had a certain idea, so he no longer listened to persuasion.

A few maids were originally pushing with Liang at the door, but when they heard the chime sound order to put Liang into the courtyard, they stopped pushing hard, and a group of people retreated, and Liang suddenly lost his center of gravity, staggered a few steps, and fell in the courtyard as soon as he entered the door.

The maids in the courtyard looked at this scene, and they couldn't hold back one by one and laughed.

Liang himself felt ashamed, and quickly got up from the ground, dusted off his knees, and became a little annoyed: "What are you laughing at?" A bunch of cheap slaves! ”

Xun Xuan leaned back in the rocking chair and asked in a lukewarm tone, "Aunt Liang, is there something wrong with coming to my hospital today?" ”

"I've heard that you not only bullied my family Lingqing, but also privately competed with Yixin for the favor of the old lady, since you came to Anfu, the old lady has not been looking for Yixin for a long time, did you say bad things about Yixin next to the old lady?" Liang stuck his waist and looked arrogant.

Xun Xuan lowered her head, just quietly fiddled with the red clothes in her hand, and said lightly: "Aunt Liang, do you have any misunderstanding about me?" The old lady has been missing her deceased cousin recently, and no one has seen her, how can I have such a great ability to sow discord from it? ”

"What's more, the old lady loves her third cousin for a day or two, how can I be separated with one or two sentences?" Xun Xuan said.

"You...... Do you dare to quibble? Liang was about to rush forward to question, but his eyes glanced at it, but his gaze fell directly on the lotus seed scattered flower dress in Xun Xuan's hand inlaid with gems.

"You...... What's in your hand? Liang's eyes were almost straight.

Qu You on the side said proudly: "This is given to our young lady by the second young lady to let our young lady dance at the flower viewing banquet in the afternoon." ”

"Flower viewing feast?" Aunt Liang's eyes rolled twice, who didn't know that the flower viewing banquet was a good place to show her talents, and if the girl could leave a good impression in front of the noble ladies of the provinces, maybe she would be able to climb the powerful in the future.

Aunt Liang knew that the third girl and the fourth girl were concubines, and their status was naturally not as good as that of An Xinyue and An Xuehan, so she put her mind on this rare flower-viewing banquet.

"How can you be qualified to wear such a precious and gorgeous garment? Bring it to me! Saying that, Aunt Liang pounced on her and wanted to snatch the lotus seed loose gauze dress from Xun Xuan's hand.

However, Qi Yin and Qu You always paid attention to Liang's movements, and as soon as they saw her move, they immediately stepped forward to block Xun Xuan's face.

Liang was blocked by two maids, and reached out to desperately hook the clothes in Xun Xuan's hand.

Xun Xuan sat motionless on the chair, only lazily raised her eyes to look at Liang, and said helplessly: "Aunt Liang, this is unacceptable, if I give you this dress, who will dance for the second cousin at the flower viewing banquet?" ”

"Humph! You bitch! What qualifications do you have to show your face in front of the noble ladies? Liang scolded unabashedly.

Xun Xuan narrowed her eyes and said lightly: "Qu You, Chi Yin, don't be rude to Aunt Liang, let go of people!" ”

"Miss......" Qu You was worried that Aunt Liang's excitement would hurt Xun Xuan.

"Let go!" Xun Xuan emphasized again.

As soon as the two maids let go of Liang, she rushed to Xun Xuan in three steps and two steps, and snatched the lotus seed loose flower dress in Xun Xuan's hand.

"Aunt Liang, if you take this dress away, if there is no one to dance with the second cousin for a while, won't you make a joke in front of all the ladies?" Xun Xuan stood up and made a gesture to retrieve the clothes from Liang's hands.

But Liang didn't plan to return the clothes after taking them, and glanced at Xun Xuan with contempt: "The girl in Anfu hasn't died, where is your turn to dance?" Don't worry, I'll explain this matter to the second lady, so I won't worry about it! ”

Liang glared at Xun Xuan angrily, then took his clothes and turned to leave.

Xun Xuan watched Liang go away, but his innocent face gradually became gloomy, Liang, Liang...... You brought it on yourself!

"Miss, the clothes have been taken away, you really don't want them?" Qu You felt sorry for such expensive clothes, but they were picked up cheaply by the Liang family, and he was very unwilling in his heart.

Xun Xuan squinted, just sneered, and said lightly: "Let her go, she snatched it herself, who can blame her?" ”

……

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Xun Xuan thought that the hour was almost up, so she got up and took Qu You and Qi Yin to the back garden.

In the back garden of May and June, when the branches are luxuriant, the banquet is placed under the big tree next to the rockery, and the shady branches just cover the sun, and it is very cool for people to sit below.

When Xun Xuan arrived, the flower-viewing banquet was already halfway through, and it was the time for An Xuehan to play the piano.

As soon as An Xuehan saw Xun Xuan, a hypocritical smile immediately appeared on her face: "Why did Cousin Xun come?" But let my sister wait! ”

Mrs. Liu hurriedly said to the ladies around her: "This is Xun Zhi, Xue Han invited her to come to dance before, but she was still unwilling, isn't this ...... It's good to say that I'm invited! ”

Mrs. Liu's remarks are intended to give Xun Xuan a hat of "dog's eyes look down on people", after all, Xun Zhi was also the pearl of Wu Guogong's palm, and the eldest sister was the queen mother of the Great Wei Dynasty, and she was a figure that these women couldn't climb.

But now such a high-ranking figure has been reduced to the point of dancing with these women, and such a gap will not make these people have the slightest sympathy for her, but will only fall into the hole even more.

If Xun Zhi shows reluctance, it will only make these people who were once far below her feel that they are being despised, and they will be even more disillusioned with Xun Xuan.

This is the real purpose of the Liu family, and it is also the genius of the Liu family.
