Xiao Baoxin was also a big-hearted person. She didn’t care whether Xiao Jing ‘ai changed her face or not. Her brain capacity was limited, and she couldn’t understand what was going on.
It was better to listen than to say these words on the day she was putting on makeup. If it was in the past, when she had ruined her reputation, someone might have said a few words of justice behind her back. If they didn’t have that kind of relationship, who would help you offend that person?
Now, to be honest, Xiao Jing ‘ai had no one to back her up. Her mother had died early, and there was no one in the palace to support her. Second, he had no face. He had simply acted out of his own will and snatched the Langjun who had proposed marriage to his sister. Moreover, the person he snatched was a general from a humble family.
There were many people who saw her as a joke. Even if she really wanted to say it, she would not offend the real second wife, Madam Xiao, for her.
Xiao Jing ‘ai’s words were almost over, and she only had a stomach full of anger.
The guests left one after another. Xie Wan and Chu Lingzi were the last to leave.
” My brother is very enthusiastic. He expanded the courtyard and made new furniture. He also knew that you practiced martial arts, so he specially chopped out a place to build stakes and placed all kinds of weapons. He knew that you liked osmanthus, so he specially planted osmanthus trees in the courtyard…In any case, he’s putting in his heart.” Xie Wan could not help but tease her brother.
“I’ve never seen Brother so happy before. He’s smiling every day. Grandmother even said that his teeth were tanned from his smile.”
Chu Lingzi was laughing so hard that her stomach was about to crack. She kept saying that she would spare her life.
She often stayed at the Xie family’s residence. In her eyes, although Xie Xian was graceful, he always gave off a faint sense of alienation. She saw him smile a lot, but she could not help but laugh at Xie Xian when he smiled with his teeth bared. It was simply ruining a classic.
“I’ll make a scene in your nuptial chamber tomorrow, saying that I want to see how dark cousin’s teeth are.”
Xiao Baoxin smiled so widely that her teeth could not be seen. Without outsiders, she was even less reserved.
“You actually dare to mess with me? Don’t you know my reputation outside? Can you still mess with me? When you get married, I’ll return them all.”
Chu Lingzi had arranged a marriage before the new year. He was the fourth son of the Xi family, the Di son of Minister Xi of the Ministry of Justice.
He was a genius of the younger generation who was equally famous as Yuan Chen. However, not only was his appearance inferior to Yuan Chen’s, he was not even considered good-looking in the Xi family. Hmm…To be precise, they were at the bottom. He looked like the young chief justice of the Supreme Court and was very ugly. In short, it was extremely ugly.
Fortunately, Chu Lingzi didn’t mind and valued her character and talent more.
The two families had already decided to get married in October next year.
Chu Lingzi put her hands on her hips and smiled.’Then I’ll have to mess with you first. Maybe you’ll already be pregnant by then. You can hug two in a year and three in two years.”
The corner of Xiao Baoxin’s mouth twitched. This was not in her imagination at all. Why were the children about to appear? And two of them at once. Was she going to let them live? She was still a child.
The person involved’s face was neither red nor white, but it made Xie Wan blush.
“You’re a little girl. You don’t even have a mouth. What do you mean by having a body…It’s not your turn to say it, and you don’t know how to be ashamed.”She pulled Chu Lingzi and bade farewell to Xiao Baoxin. She couldn’t stay any longer. It was too embarrassing.
Chu Lingzi laughed like a pig and turned around to wink at Xiao Baoxin.
Xiao Miaorong and Xiao Jing ‘ai stayed behind as family to see the guests off. Xiao Miaorong’s smile was already stiff, while Xiao Jing’ ai was always smiling and welcoming people, establishing the image of a beautiful person with a sweet voice.
Everyone had left. Before Xiao Baoxin could ask her to stay, Xiao Miaorong had already made arrangements to return to the residence to lie down.
“My greatest pursuit in life is to draw and then lie on the couch. I’m already exhausted, so 1 won’t stay any longer. I still have to send my sister off tomorrow. Sister, you should rest well too. Dress up beautifully and shock everyone. You’ll scare them to death!”
Xiao Baoxin laughed. It was reasonable to shock the four of them, but to scare them to death…It didn’t seem like a good thing.
“Thank you for your hard work today.”
Xiao Jing ‘ai naturally didn’t want to stay any longer. Without outsiders, she couldn’t be bothered to pretend to be happy. She had already torn them countless times, and since she couldn’t get anything out of Xiao Baoxin, she might as well be herself. With a cold face, she said,
“Elder Sister’s fate is good. Her reputation was ruined by you, yet she still managed to marry Xie Xian. “Unfortunately, it’s hard to have both sides in the world. With his body…” Before she could finish speaking, Xiao Baoxin’s hand had already come up and pinched her shoulder. The corners of his mouth were curled into a faint smile.
“Since it’s a big day, say something nice to make people like you.”
Xiao Baoxin knew that Xiao Jing ‘ai was not going to say anything nice next. He raised his chin high. When he heard something unpleasant, he was about to increase the strength of his hand.
If she wasn’t afraid of breaking her shoulder, just say it.
“Otherwise, don’t open your mouth.”
The slow-witted Xiao Miaorong could also tell that the atmosphere between the two sisters was not right. However, she naturally leaned towards Xiao Baoxin. After all, Xiao Baoxin was beautiful.
“I was just about to say something nice. Since Sister doesn’t like to hear it, 1 won’t say it.”Xiao Jing ‘ai gritted her teeth and swallowed her words.
Even if she didn’t say it, she would still be short-lived!
“All!” Xiao Jing ‘ai screamed. Xiao Baoxin was really ruthless!
“What are you doing? I’m here to add makeup to Sister. It’s fine if Sister doesn’t appreciate it, but why do you have to hit me!?”
Xiao Baoxin couldn’t hold it in, but he did not regret it.
“This is to tell you that it’s good to hold back some words, but if you can’t hold back, you’ll lose control of your hand for a while and still hurt. After all, some people were not as rational as Second Mother.”
Was this what civilized people did?
Xiao Jing ‘ai wasn’t someone who could sit down and talk, so she left in a huff.
After returning to the residence, it was inevitable that Furen Xiao would ask Xiao Miaorong some things. She had been helping Furen Xie and receiving those Furen, so she had no time to care about the situation of the little lady. Xiao Miaorong was straightforward, but Xiao Jing ‘ai was devious and scheming. She was afraid that Xiao Jing’ ai would do something to embarrass himself.
As expected, after hearing Xiao Miaorong’s words, Madam Xiao’s lungs almost exploded.
This was blatantly slandering her in front of all the young ladies and madams. They thought that the dowry was too little. This was using actions to smear her.
God knew that the dowry of Xiao Jing ‘ai’s mother was left behind by Xiao Jing’ ai’s mother. In the end, Xiao Jing ‘ai couldn’t stand the sight of the bride’s dazzling dowry. Although he couldn’t be compared to Sikong Xiao, who was willing to go all out to support his daughter, he couldn’t fall behind his eldest brother. It would make him seem like a heartless father, so he changed his tone and doubled the dowry.
He didn’t even look at the betrothal gift from the Xie family, and then turned back to look at the betrothal gift sent by Yang Shao. Was that a heavyweight?
Compared to the eldest lady, why don’t you compare the strength of the other party’s family, as well as his and Boss Xiao’s strength?
