Lang Xuan was completely flustered and turned to run away.
Jiang'er and Baoxuan, who had already seen her, said, "..."
Baoxuan, in particular, asked with a blank expression, "Sister Jiang'er, did Ninth Miss see something unclean just now?"
She wanted to say "ghost," but then she remembered the rules she'd recently learned, and realized she couldn't say that.
Jiang'er actually thought so too, but she still said, "Don't talk nonsense, maybe you suddenly remembered something."
After thinking for a moment, she said, "I'll go in and tell the princess."
Yanran was looking at the Yuanyang embroidery and praised the craftsmanship highly.
They're both hands, so why is it that other people's hands are so dexterous, while hers look like a pig's trotter without a fork?
Yuanyang was gentle and quiet. Sunlight streamed through the window, illuminating her fair face and highlighting her beautiful profile.
Such a person, yet suffered such harm...
Yanran really wanted to hit someone.
If it weren't for her lingering old wounds, wouldn't Yuanyang be looking for a good man now, a devoted wife and mother?
Just like Hua Cha and Jinjin...
After finishing the battle, Xue Lie "retired with honor" and couldn't wait to head to the Northwest before the New Year to find Hua Cha.
Presumably, the two are now deeply in love and living happily ever after.
How wonderful it would be if all the beautiful women in the world could have such a heartwarming ending!
Jiang'er came in and reported what had just happened, saying, "Princess, I think Ninth Miss seems to have been greatly frightened. Would you like to go and see her?"
Yuanyang stopped what she was doing and looked up. "Should I go take a look too?"
Having traveled together and lived side by side for so long, Yuanyang felt that Lang Jiu was a lovable girl.
This girl is timid and a little insecure, but she is also kind and approachable.
Moreover, when pushed to the limit, they can be quite explosive.
Yuanyang liked her quite a bit and often spoke well of her, so naturally she didn't want anything to happen to her.
"No need, I'll go take a look first."
If there's nothing going on, their mobilization can be quite intimidating.
Yanran took Jiang'er and Baoxuan to the Lang Family.
Lang Xuan had just done what she thought was sufficient mental preparation, but when she saw Baoxuan, she realized that it was all in vain.
The bittersweet, envious, and jealous feeling she had experienced in her past life, coupled with her helplessness, enveloped her deeply.
--She never forgot.
In countless lonely and desolate nights of her past life, how she wished she could become Baoxuan.
I hope that my parents and Yuwen Duo are on good terms, that our social statuses are similar, and that I can receive his gentle smile in return...
Therefore, she remained silent, her emotions in turmoil, for fear that speaking would reveal her innermost feelings.
No matter what Yanran asked her, she just shook her head.
Yanran: "... What's wrong with you?!"
This is so frustrating! You're not mute, can't we just talk things out?
"Why are you staring at Jiang'er? Could it be that Jiang'er is a spy? Jiang'er may be quick, but she can't kill someone in front of me to silence them. Say something!"
Jiang'er had been following Yanran for a long time and knew that she didn't doubt Yanran's words, but her face still paled.
As for Baoxuan, she was still a child, Yanran didn't even consider her.
Baoxuan, however, sensed a subtle change in Jiang'er's emotions. She silently took Jiang'er's hand and whispered, "Sister Jiang'er, the princess was just joking with you."
Jiang'er smiled and nodded, "I know."
"No, it's not Jiang'er." Lang Xuan quickly shook her head.
She cannot cause trouble for innocent people.
"Is that Baoxuan?" Yanran joked, pointing at Baoxuan. "Show your true form!"
Baoxuan is no longer afraid of Yanran. Hearing this, she smiled and meowed like a cat, "Meow--"
Yanran and Jiang'er both laughed, and even Lang Xuan couldn't help but laugh.
Because Baoxuan looked so adorable just now.
Lang Xuan suddenly realized that the current Baoxuan was not the person she remembered from her previous life at all.
Right now, she doesn't know her own background; she's just a poor little thing who has just found a place to stay.
Furthermore, even if she were to become Baoxuan in the future, and be loved by Yuwen Duo, would that be her fault?
The problem lies in your own mindset.
This life is different.
Thinking about this, Lang Xuan suddenly felt relieved.
She composed herself and said with a smile, "It's nothing, I was just feeling a little unwell for a moment, and I lost focus and dropped the plate. I'm fine now."
Lang Xuan invited them to sit down.
Seeing that she was the same as before and did not want to mention what had just happened, Yanran did not bring it up.
After staying with Lang Xuan for a while, she got up to say goodbye.
Hmm, I'll go back and tell my older brother; maybe he'll understand!
Before leaving, I naturally had to say goodbye to Yuanyang.
Yanran asked Jiang'er and Baoxuan to wait for her at the door, and then walked in with light steps.
Before they had even rounded the screen wall, they suddenly heard the Yuanyang inside, their voices low and hushed as they scolded each other.
"Don't call me that! It's rude!"
Yanran:???
Who's got a death wish, daring to cause trouble for Yuanyang?
She had just rolled up her sleeves when she heard a familiar, suppressed but resolute voice from inside. "I don't want to call you sister, you are Yuanyang."
Holy crap!
Zhao Qing!
She doesn't call younger women "sister," she's got a wild side!
Yanran immediately stopped, held her breath, and pressed her ear tightly against the screen wall.
However, the two of them fell silent.
Yanran: "..."
After waiting for a while, Zhao Qing said, "I'll be going now. I'll come see you again when I have time."
"You're not allowed to come anymore."
"It's none of my business! You're nobody to me! If you want to control me, wait until you marry me!"
Yanran: Zhao Qing, you're something else!
He looks honest and unassuming, but he's actually a secretly passionate guy.
hey-hey.
Hearing Zhao Qing's footsteps approaching, Yanran quickly put on a serious expression and walked inside. "Oh? Zhao Qing, what are you doing here? What a coincidence!"
Zhao Qing blushed, bowed to her, and then hurriedly left.
Yanran went inside and winked at Yuanyang, "I'm leaving!"
Yuanyang hurriedly explained, "Princess, things aren't as you imagine."
Yanran said with a grin, "I imagined? I didn't imagine anything!"
Yuanyang's face was burning hot, almost hot enough to fry a pancake, but she still said seriously, "It's impossible for him and me."
"Oh..." Yanran deliberately drew out her words, "I know. Nothing's wrong between you two, so I don't need to prepare any money for a wedding gift! So even if you do get married, I won't need to give a gift!"
Yuanyang:"..."
"Haha, just kidding." Yanran waved her hand. "I'm leaving now, I'll come find you another day."
"Wait," Yuanyang said softly, but she wasn't talking about herself. "Ninth Miss, she's really quite nice."
"I know."
Yanran returned, someone came to call her, saying that Linlin wanted to see her.
Yanran didn't think much of it and went straight there.
Linlin stood by the window, gently stroking a fat cat on the table. Seeing her enter, she asked directly, "Did you go to see Lang Xuan?"
Yanran: "Zhao Qing, that tattletale! I haven't even complained about him liking Yuanyang yet, and he's already tattling on me, saying I went out on my own!"
Zhao Qing, standing to the side. "..."
His knees buckled and he was about to kneel down, but Linlin said, "I already knew that, it's nothing."
Zhao Qing was overjoyed and immediately knelt down. "Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness."
Then, he looked at Yanran with gratitude.
