Chapter 45 Sisters with Discord in Face and Heart
She couldn't help but take a deep look at Zhao Xiwei.

Unexpectedly, this wild girl who has always been unpleasant to her, would think of herself like this.

Is it really generous, or is there another abacus?
Zhao Chengyan suddenly couldn't understand.

Since Princess Jiangxia's visit that day, her views on this concubine sister who appeared halfway have become more and more complicated.

She knew that marrying the palace was a very heavy burden, and she also knew that being selected by the princess also represented a great honor.

But Zhao Xiwei didn't show any resistance, and even his obedience was a little shocking.

And now he is freeing himself in front of Pei Zhenzhen, is it really that he is treating the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain?

You know, Zhao Xiwei can completely stand by and let Pei Zhenzhen use the topic to achieve the purpose of provocation.

However, this thought was only for a moment, and she was quickly denied it.

What is Zhao Xiwei's scheming and means?On the first day of returning to the mansion, I was able to subdue the first lady and the second lady!
Facing the palace, he chose to be obedient, just because for a country girl, it was a big happy event for a sparrow to become a phoenix.

Facing Pei Zhenzhen's provocation and extending a helping hand, it was just because the matter got too big, even Zhao Xiwei himself lost his dignity.

After all, a woman who wants to marry the palace will not allow any bad rumors about her marriage.

In the flash of calcium carbide, Zhao Chengyan had already sifted through the complicated emotions.

When she met Zhao Xiwei's bright eyes again, she had a knowing smile: "Sister Wei didn't tell me, but I forgot, did you hear me, Sister Yu? If you dare to break your word, Sister Wei will ask I will punish you for copying the scriptures."

He half-covered his mouth and smiled, as if a good sister was protecting her sister who was in trouble, with no intention of blaming or reprimanding her.

Zhao Xi's fingers on her wrist stiffened slightly.

At the moment when Zhao Chengyan was staring at her with a twinkle in her eyes, she has now acted as a virtuous and dignified demeanor, and threw out the words "Sister Wei will punish you", so she lightly stepped on her head, and by the way also announced Everyone: You see, my concubine elder sister is really majestic.

Zhao Xiwei was inexplicably disappointed.

Although he knew that Zhao Chengyan was selfish, he didn't expect to be so selfish.

You have to get the upper hand in everything, but forget that no one else is a fool.

Zhao Chengyan, ah Zhao Chengyan, do you think that if you push me out at this time, you will be able to make these ladies look up at you?

The eyes around them were like sharp arrows, shooting towards the sisters.

Some people were full of disbelief, some were dismissive, and some were sipping tea with their heads down, pretending they didn't know anything.

In this chaotic scene, only one eye is different.

Three points of sympathy, seven points of appreciation.

It was a girl in a lotus-colored dress.

He is also fifteen or sixteen years old, with a petite body, a round face, and a smile that is as clean and translucent as mountain spring water. There is a small tear mole on the left cheek, one inch from the eye.

On the face, a woman has a mole, and she is destined to be trapped by love. Therefore, most women will regard this as an ominous omen, and deliberately cover it with powder and refuse to show it.

But this girl made no secret of it, not only that, but this small tear mole actually gave her the sweetness of the sunshine in early spring.

She smiled and stretched out a pair of white and tender hands: "My surname is Cui, my name is Yurong, and my father is Jingzhao Yin Cui Lie. Are you the lady who just came back from Zhao's residence?"

It turned out to be the Cui Clan of Qinghe.

Zhao Xi nodded slightly and smiled, but before she could speak, Cui Yurong winked playfully at her, and then shouted loudly, "Cousin Zhenzhen, Miss Zhao San said that she will come with us to release her later!"

This voice attracted Pei Zhenzhen's attention: "What's going on?"

Cui Yurong stretched out two fingers and compared a rabbit's ears: "I just bought a litter of hares from the hunter at the foot of the mountain. Let's go up the back mountain for a while and find a good place to put the rabbits, okay?"

Pei Zhenzhen looked at her with suspicious eyes: "I like to hunt and kill animals, so let me go with you to release them, are you sure?"

"What's the matter? Let it go and fight again." Cui Yurong smiled and held Zhao Xiwei's hand, "Miss Zhao San will also go with us."

"Oh?" Pei Zhenzhen glanced at Zhao Xiwei and asked, "Does Miss Zhao San want to go together?"

"..."

The problems between Zhao Chengyan and Pei Zhenzhen were not resolved. As Pei Zhenzhen's cousin, Cui Yurong extended an olive branch to herself, making it clear that she was forming a gang.

Zhao Xiwei didn't want to go into the muddy waters of the noble girls' circle, so he smiled and said, "Thank you Miss Cui for your kindness, but I don't have any animals ready to be released, why don't you..."

Before he could finish speaking, Jinxiu came in with a small bamboo basket: "Miss, the turtles at the foot of the mountain are all sold out, and the slaves only bought two hares..."

"Look, what are you talking about!" Cui Yurong clapped her hands and smiled, and took it over, "If you have a rabbit, we will release it in a while!"

"..."

Zhao Xiwei was a little dumbfounded.

"Rong'er." Madam Cui called out and said, "This is in a Buddhist temple, please be quiet and don't collide with the Bodhisattva. If you really want to release the life, you might as well take it home and put it in the back mountain."

"Mother is right." Cui Yurong stuck out her tongue and returned the bamboo basket to Jinxiu, but her eyes were still looking at this side reluctantly.

Zhao Xiwei couldn't help showing a soft smile.

This Miss Cui is really naive.

Mrs. Zhao smiled and cleared the siege: "After praying to the Buddha for a while, there is no other important matter, why don't we all follow along to release the animals."

Mrs. Cui smiled and said, "Mrs. Zhao, this is a monkey in our family. Don't get used to her."

Mrs. Zhao's face was full of love: "The children should be more lively."

There was peace in the house again.

Jinxiu opened his mouth, looking like he was hesitant to speak.

Zhao Xi shook his head slightly, tapped his fingers on the armrest of the chair, and Jinxiu retreated to one side.

Zhao Xiwei's eyes circled around the house.

Apart from Pei Zhenzhen, who already knew each other, Qiao Yunqian, Cui Yurong, and another young lady had been sitting there quietly and seemed to be very well behaved.

The one in the corner, in particular, was wearing a white-toothed plain makeup flower jacket, with a beautiful face and a calm expression, like a bright moon in the sky on the Mid-Autumn Festival night.

Judging from her dress, this young lady does not seem to be from a wealthy family, but judging from her temperament and appearance, she does not seem to be a poor family.

Cui Yurong's low voice came from behind: "That is He Manzhi, the concubine of the He family, and her father, He Kui, is the Prince of the East Palace, Zhan Shi."

Zhao Xi was slightly surprised.
