Chapter 183: The Lin Family
Be careful, Yu Xi didn't really drink the bowl of jade soup, but took advantage of the fact that there was no one around, and quietly poured it into the potted plant by the window.
Not long after, the little girl who left just now went and returned, this time there were two girls who were dressed in the same way, but slightly older than her, looking at the jewelry in the tray of the two, they should have come to dress up for "Miss".
"Miss, tomorrow is the flower-viewing banquet held by Mrs. Qin, and Mrs. ordered us to try on makeup for you."
"Okay." Yu Xi nodded lightly, sat down in front of the dresser, and let a few girls work beside her.
For about half an hour, the delicate and lovely girl in the mirror became a lot brighter, Yu Xi stared at the mirror, and finally felt that the person in the mirror was similar to herself.
"Miss, this is the dress that Madame has prepared for you, which one do you choose?"
There are three skirts brought by the girl, one is a moon-white straight-necked shirt with a lotus pink breast-length skirt, the skirt is light gauze texture, which looks light and cute; One is a waist-length skirt with a cross-neckline, the whole is moon white, with a brown hook half a finger width, embroidered with dark lines, which is both simple and atmospheric; The third body is a phoenix tail skirt outlined with gold threads, with colorful tassels falling on the skirt, and when the skirt is unfolded in the sun, the bird pattern outlined by the gold thread is faintly visible, which is gorgeous.
Three dresses, three different styles, Yu Xi couldn't figure out the meaning of "madam" in the girl's mouth, so she simply asked, "I don't know which one Mrs. recommends?" ”
Sure enough, the girl replied: "Mrs. Qin's flower-viewing banquet invited more than ten young ladies, and it is said that there are famous families in Biluo City, and they have all received posts. Madame hopes that the young lady can win the blue eyes of Mrs. Qin, and she will not be compared to the young ladies of other families. ”
You see, that's to dress as eye-catching as possible.
Yu Xi pointed to the colorful fringed phoenix tail skirt and decided, "That's it." ”
After the girls determined what to wear at the "Miss" flower viewing banquet, they withdrew from the house, leaving only the little girl who brought the jade soup at the beginning, wiping the furnishings in the house and the dust on the ground.
Yu Xi noticed that the three people who had appeared in front of her so far, including this little girl, were all mortals who had not cultivated, and there was no fluctuation of aura on their bodies.
She originally thought that her "young lady" was low enough in the early stage of Qi Refining Realm, but now it seems that it may be quite high in this place.
What the hell is this place?
Biluo City?
Yu Xi had never heard of this city name, but Biluochun had heard of this tea name in her previous life.
Pressing away all the doubts in his heart, Yu Xi continued to carefully observe everything in the illusion while trying to break the illusion.
In half a day, she has a general understanding of the environment she is in.
Her current identity is the daughter of the second room of the Lin family in Biluo City, and the "lady" in the mouths of the girls is not her own mother, but the wife of the head of the Lin family, her aunt.
The Lin family is thin, and the second room of the Lin family is even more miserable, the lord and wife of the second room unfortunately strayed into the miasma when they went out to hunt monsters a few years ago, and when they were discovered, the corpses had turned purple, and they had already died thoroughly. Since then, there has only been one orphan girl left in the second room of the Lin family, named Xi Niang.
Lin Xiniang is the identity that Yu Xi now got in this large-scale cosplay.
Through this half-day observation, Yu Xi found that Lin Xiniang's status in the Lin family was quite embarrassing.
To say that she is valued, the small courtyard where she lives is quite deserted, there is only one little girl in the courtyard to serve, and for half a day, except for the two girls who came to help her try on makeup, no one else visited the courtyard.
But to say that she is not taken seriously, the dresses and jewelry sent by her wife are all high-quality, and for a small family like the Lin family, it is obviously the best thing that the clan can come up with. There is also that bowl of jade soup, for Qi refining realm cultivators, it is a nourishing product, with her current cultivation in the early stage of Qi refining, it is even a bit wasteful to take this thing, but Mrs. is willing to order someone to bring it to her, it really doesn't look like she doesn't pay attention to her, the second lady.
Material attention, emotional indifference.
Nine times out of ten, the cause of such a situation is ...... The Lin family is profitable on "her".
And this "benefit" is probably related to the Mrs. Qin who has been mentioned many times in the mouths of the girls.
As the night fell, Yu Xi gradually calmed down.
She tried a few times in half a day, and now she can't get out of this small courtyard, not because someone deliberately placed a ban outside the courtyard to block her actions, but because she was limited by the illusion, and the scope of the illusion seems to be only so large.
But it doesn't matter, tomorrow is the flower-viewing banquet held by Mrs. Qin, she is bound to leave the courtyard, and then she will be able to see more scenes in the illusion, as well as Mrs. Qin, who has been repeatedly mentioned by the girls, where is sacred, and tomorrow can also be seen.
Sleepless all night, meditate cross-legged until dawn.
As soon as it was dawn, the girls came to groom her, and then they led her out of the yard as she expected.
The whole picture of the Lin family gradually unfolded in front of her eyes, the small courtyard where she lived was located in the corner next to the garden, and when she turned a corner out of the small courtyard, she could come to the back door of the house.
Two carriages had already parked outside the door.
The curtain hung on the first car, and with her breath, Yu Xi sensed that there was someone sitting inside, and her cultivation was similar to her, and it was also the early stage of qi refining.
Subconsciously swept it with his divine sense, and sitting in the carriage was a woman with a graceful bearing wearing a golden hairpin, needless to say, Yu Xi also guessed her identity, it should be the wife of the head of the Lin family.
The other party seemed to notice her divine sense, and raised his eyes through the curtain and swept over, "Xi Niang? ”
Without waiting for Yu Xi to respond, he continued to say lightly, "Get in the car, don't let Mrs. Qin wait for a long time." ”
Her tone was quite detached, and Yu Xi also stopped thinking about what was coming out of her mouth, answered "yes" softly, and got into the carriage behind.
The carriage was drawn by ordinary horses, and the carriage was also a mundane thing with no carved formations. There were some bumps on the road, Yu Xi opened the curtain and looked out, the street was not deserted, there was an endless stream of vendors and pedestrians, and the sound of selling in his ears and the aroma of food he smelled in his nose were very real.
Yu Xi couldn't help but sigh in his heart, this illusion is quite real, and the person who creates the illusion must be strong.
Thinking about the timing of falling into the illusion, Yu Xi vaguely guessed that all this was related to the stinging predecessor they were looking for.
It's just that as far as she knows, the predecessor of Fu Sting grew up in Xiaoyao Gate, and he is the bloodline descendant of a certain old sect master, so it is said that it should have nothing to do with this small city full of mortals and Qi Refining Realm cultivators.
Why did he create such an illusion?
The bumpy carriage stopped in front of the tall and wide door, and with all kinds of questions, Yu Xi stepped out of the carriage and quietly spread his consciousness and leaned into the courtyard.
At this moment, she vaguely noticed that there was another divine consciousness sweeping by her side, her heart tightened, and she withdrew her divine sense and looked to the side, but she didn't see the slightest abnormality.
In front of the door, in addition to the two carriages of the Lin family, there were only a few girls who welcomed guests, and there was no slightest fluctuation in their cultivation.
