Chapter 19
At this moment, her address had changed from Master Xie to Brother Xie.
But Xie Wan Ning's focus was not on this. She turned to look at the sister she had just met and said in an indescribable tone: "I think your brother is not bad either."
She was really afraid of Xie Yanyu's serious preaching.
The two girls praised each other's brother, which made the young men present couldn't help laughing.
Zheng Ye, the son of the Marquis of Qucheng, smiled and said, "That's easy. You two can just take turns shouting."
He looked at his little cousin: "What did Wanwan say?"
Xie Wan Ning poured him a cup of tea and said with a fake smile: "My cousin must be thirsty after talking so much. Just drink your tea in peace."
Zheng Ye choked and sighed, "I thought Wanwan's temper had improved after not seeing her for a few months, but I didn't expect she still won't suffer any loss."
"Is loss a good thing?" Pei Yuxuan was curious and asked, "Why would you be willing to suffer a loss?"
"That's right," Pei Yuqing, who had been silent, suddenly said, "Girls should be tougher and not let themselves suffer."
After being repeatedly criticized by the two girls and betrayed by his best friend, Zheng Ye was completely defeated. He smiled bitterly and shook his head, not daring to joke anymore.
The group started talking about other topics.
This dynasty does not emphasize the separation of men and women, but it is not a good idea for two girls to sit together with a group of men and chat and laugh.
Xie Wan Ning was just thinking about what excuse to use to get out of the situation when she heard the man beside her whisper, "I wonder if Wan Wan has prepared a return gift this time?"
...return gift?
Xie Wan Ning recalled the words she had casually agreed to when they parted last time.
She blinked and looked around. Everyone was chatting and enjoying the scenery. Even Xie Yanyu, who loved to discipline her the most, was attracted by Pei Yuxuan.
But, there are so many people here.
This person was so nice to ask her for a return gift?
Xie Wan Ning refused to say anything. The person next to her waited for a while, then suddenly chuckled and stopped talking.
That laughter made people's hearts itch. She picked up the teacup and drank it all in one gulp. She could no longer sit still.
Fortunately, it was getting dark and everyone at the table left after a while.
Xie Wan Ning accompanied his brother and sent the Pei siblings to the gate.
Pei Yuxuan was reluctant to leave when she got into the car. She glanced at Xie Yanyu, held Xie Wanning's hand, and said earnestly, "I love going to Yuxuan Teahouse to listen to books. I'll send you an invitation in two days. You must come and don't make excuses."
Xie Wan Ning, who understood her thoughts, was silent for a moment, then responded with an eager smile: "Okay."
It seems that the princess really likes her brother and he is generous. If this can be accomplished, it will indeed be a good thing.
It's better than the brother in her dream who was still unmarried in his twenties, which made her parents anxious.
Seeing that she agreed, Pei Yuxuan looked at Xie Yanyu beside her and said politely, "Brother Xie, if you have time, you can come along."
Xie Yanyu nodded slightly but did not respond.
Pei Yuxuan was not discouraged. She waved to them with a smile and got on the carriage.
Pei Yuqing, who was standing by, didn't know whether he could see his sister's feelings or not. His face showed no expression at all. He raised his eyes and said goodbye.
Watching Pei Mansion go away, Xie Wan Ning tilted his head to look at his brother, raised his eyebrows and smiled: "In your opinion, if Princess Pingning really invites me, should I go or not?"
Xie Yanyu lowered his eyes slightly, not knowing what he was thinking. Hearing this, he glanced at his sister and said calmly, "You can go, but wear your veil, go early and come back early, and don't stay outside for too long."
After saying that, he turned around and walked into the mansion. Xie Wan Ning pouted at his back. Pei Yuxuan's behavior was obvious, but how could her wooden brother not see it at all?
Or is it that she is more sensitive because she has been married in her dreams?
Xie Wan Ning felt a little anxious for her slow-witted brother and decided to get to know Princess Pingning better before deciding whether to bring the two together.
As he was thinking this, he was about to enter the mansion when he heard the sound of horse hooves behind him.
She subconsciously turned her head, and her steps suddenly stopped.
——Lu Ziyan.
He was wearing a dark riding outfit, a jade belt outlining his slender waist, and had a stern face. He was riding a warhorse named Xueyue, which was taller than an ordinary woman. It was clearly a warm spring day, but when this man and his horse appeared, it seemed as if they were surrounded by wind and snow, and the cold air was radiating outward.
Even though the two of them had gotten to this point, Xie Wan Ning had to admit that her childhood sweetheart was indeed attractive.
The girl in the dream was reluctant to give up and insisted on getting married. In fact, she might have done so for the sake of his face.
And there is his cold and arrogant spirit.
After all, the desire to conquer is not only possessed by men, she seems to have it too.
...It wasn't unjust for her.
Xie Wan Ning came to a conclusion, looked up at the man who had dismounted, and smiled with relief: "You're looking for me?"
After being rejected twice and even calling off the engagement, when they met again, all he said was a calm "Look for me".
Lu Ziyan's face was extremely calm, and his dark pupils looked at her without a trace of emotion: "When did you and Pei Yuqing meet?"
“???” Xie Wan Ning was a little surprised. She didn’t expect that this would be his first question.
I don’t know how long he has been there or what he has seen.
But she thought she was doing a good job. Her brother was there when she sent the Pei siblings away...
Just thinking of this, Xie Wan Ning reacted and realized that even if she was behaving badly now, it had nothing to do with him, right?
He immediately frowned and asked, "What does it have to do with you?"
After these words came out, Lu Ziyan's eyes darkened and his lips moved: "You are my fiancée, what does it have to do with me?"
"Oh," Xie Wan Ning responded nonchalantly, took a half step back, no longer bothered by his momentum, and said, "Then cancel the engagement. Didn't my father go to your house and ask for a cancellation of the engagement?"
Lu Ziyan seemed to be oblivious to her mockery. He kept his eyes on her face and asked, "What's the reason for breaking off the engagement?"
Xie Wan Ning pretended to be surprised: "You don't know?"
"If it's because of Rou Niang, you don't have to be with her..."
"No, no, no, don't mention your Rou Niang to me." Xie Wan Ning interrupted quickly. She didn't want to listen to his clichés at all. She had heard enough of them in her dreams.
From the moment Liu Manrou entered the house, he said, 'Don't worry, Rou Niang will never have any influence on you.'
This slight influence lasted until Liu Manrou gave birth to her eldest son, and then it changed to "Even if Rou Niang gives birth to her eldest son, it will not threaten your position as the legal wife."
In the end, I don't know when it finally turned into, 'Xie Wan Ning, when did you become such a wicked woman'.
cat?
Xie Wan Ning was startled and took three steps back, looking at the man in front of her with disgust: "Lu Ziyan, I understand that you need to reproduce for the Lu family. If I let you go, can you let me go too?"
She took a deep breath and said bluntly, "To be honest, I feel sick when I hear you calling me Rou Niang all the time."
