Chapter 56
Shuri, Shen Jinyan who was lying on the bed was having a sweet dream, and there was a continuous knock on the door, followed by Chuqing's soft voice.
"Miss, Mr. Qiao and the third prince of Yuwen Kingdom are asking to see you outside the door."
Hearing these words, Shen Jinyan naturally understood that it was Qiao Jinling and Yu Wenhao who came here. Thinking of Xuanyuan Jinhui's warning words to her before leaving yesterday, he couldn't help frowning even deeper.
Sitting up from the bed, Shen Jinyan stretched, and then told Chu Qing who was outside the door: "My broken courtyard is too small, and there are only stone tables in the courtyard for people to sit on. Hello, tea is serving Qiao. Young Master and Third Prince, I will come out later."
A somewhat sleepy voice came from the inner room, and Yu Wenhao, who was standing in the yard outside the door, couldn't help but smile.
According to the news obtained by the spies, Shen Jinyan gets up very early every day, and today they came here, and they also sent a special greeting card to the Prime Minister's Mansion in advance, but today they came, this person was still sleeping, obviously, they didn't take their Come seriously.
"Young Master Qiao, it seems that we came at the wrong time."
Qiao Jinling, who was sitting in a wheelchair, listened to Yu Wenhao's semi-joking words, looked up at the sun hanging high in the sky, and found that it was almost noon, so he smiled lightly and echoed: "Indeed, we seem to have come sooner rather than later." too early!"
The voice was neither high nor low, but Shen Jinyan who was in the room heard every single word in his ears.
Thinking of the two men making fun of her in different ways, his face still turned red for no reason.
To be honest, it wasn't that she got up late on purpose this morning, but that she didn't know what happened. After falling asleep last night, she had a good dream until now, and she hasn't had a nightmare yet.
Although she is very willful about this kind of life, it also makes her more aware that she has lived too many comfortable lives. If Chu Qing hadn't come to wake her up at this moment, she wouldn't even know that someone was coming in the yard!
The lesson of yesterday is still vivid in her mind, Chu Qing naturally obeyed Shen Jinyan's order completely, and quickly walked in front of Yu Wenhao and the others, automatically ignoring what they said just now, and bowed respectfully to the two of them.
"Young Master Qiao, the third prince, my eldest lady has just recovered from a serious illness, and she is inevitably a little weak. In addition, her complexion is not very good, and she often suffers from insomnia at night. Naturally, she wakes up late at the moment. My eldest lady is dressing up, please. Wait a moment, but our yard is too small, so we have to give in to the two distinguished guests!"
As soon as Chu Qing's words fell, Shen Xinyan, who had been quietly staying aside, thought of what Yu Wenhao and the others said just now, thinking that she really looked down on Shen Jinyan, and immediately echoed, "Mr. I just took over the greeting card, but I forgot that my sister can't read many big characters, and I forgot to tell my sister that you will come to her yard, and my sister always gets up so late, but she was rude in front of you today, please Young Master Qiao and the Third Prince are not to be blamed, I sincerely apologize to you on behalf of my sister."
Regarding Shen Xinyan's words, Yu Wenhao stood with his hands behind his back, with a cold expression on his face, as if I didn't hear it, but Qiao Jinling, who was sitting in a wheelchair, was somewhat embarrassed, so he smiled and spoke.
"Miss Xinyan is serious. We are not very polite. Yesterday, we should let the servant tell Miss Shen that we will come to the prime minister's mansion to thank him, so today's scene will not happen!"
Shen Xinyan smiled awkwardly, "Young Master Qiao, Third Prince, my sister's place is too small. Besides, it's hot today, and my sister hasn't woken up yet. You should follow me to the flower hall in the front yard for a while!"
This time, before Qiao Jinling could open his mouth, Yu Wenhao, who had been impatient for a long time, said in a cold voice: "Thank you, Miss Xinyan, for your kindness, but there is no need to trouble you. Today we come to the Prime Minister's Mansion to thank Ms. Shen. The guests are welcome. Then, how can you resign from Miss Shen's kindness, but Miss Xinyan, if you are busy, you can leave first."
For a woman like Shen Xinyan who likes to chatter, wants to step down others everywhere, and is eager to show herself to please others, Yu Wenhao felt very disgusted after just one glance.
Not to mention that when he investigated Shen Jinyan's affairs earlier, he found out a lot of things that Shen Xinyan, a woman who had shown Shen Jinyan's face in the early years, tormented Shen Jinyan. Now, she is still verbally slandering Shen Jinyan in front of him. Anger naturally increased rather than decreased.
What Yu Wenhao said made Shen Xinyan's face turn green with anger. This is the Prime Minister's Mansion, but as a result, her master was ordered to leave by an outsider, which made her, the face of the master, go where to go in front of the servants.
If it weren't for the fact that the other party was someone their Xiangfu couldn't easily offend, she would definitely not make it easy for them.
"The third prince is serious. I said to myself that a woman in a deep house has nothing to be busy with. My mother is in charge of the house inside and outside the house. I am happy to be at my leisure." Shen Xinyan said with a smile, not seeing anything at all. Looks a little bit angry.
"In that case, please go ahead, Miss Xinyan!" Yu Wenhao said casually, turned and walked back, sat down on the stone bench beside him, and smiled at Chuqing who was still standing there: "Miss Chuqing, just now Your eldest lady said good tea is waiting for you, and I happen to be thirsty, can I trouble you to get some tea to quench my thirst."
Although Yu Wenhao's words were not defending Shen Jinyan just now, they also deflated Shen Xinyan. This was what Chu Qing was happy to see, and her favorability for Yu Wenhao also increased by two points. She smiled and said: "Third Prince, wait a moment, Chu Qing Sunny, let's go."
Seeing Chu Qing who turned to go to work, Qiao Jinling smiled silently, and Shen Xinyan next to him hurriedly took a step forward, "Young Master Qiao, you have difficulty moving in this wheelchair, I will push you to the stone table over there."
"Miss Xinyan's kindness is appreciated, but this wheelchair is too heavy. Miss Xinyan is not strong enough for a woman, so I won't bother you to worry about it." Lin Yuan next to him said coldly, took a step forward, and pushed Qiao Jinling's wheelchair Go to the stone table.
Chu Qing quickly came up with the teapot, took out two cups, and poured a cup for Yu Wenhao and Qiao Jinling respectively, then quietly stepped aside and stood respectfully.
Yu Wenhao glanced at the crystal-clear water in the cup, and smiled gracefully, "This good tea is really good tea."
Qiao Jinling next to him didn't speak, just picked up the cup, and took a shallow sip. Seeing this, Yu Wenhao blew lightly twice, cooled the water on the rim, and drank two more.
Seeing that the two of them were drinking comfortably, Shen Xinyan thought that Chu Qing didn't pour it for her on purpose, and then she glanced at Zi Hua, the maid next to her. Zi Hua has been by Shen Xinyan's side for many years, so she naturally understands what the master is thinking , understanding, she immediately accused Chu Qing who was standing aside.
"Chuqing, why did you only pour tea from Mr. Qiao and the third prince, but from my lady?"
As soon as Chuqing heard this, she knew it was finding fault, but she was no longer the same Chuqing as yesterday, and she didn't want to suffer the pain of yesterday, so she took a step forward, saluted, and answered in an orderly manner.
"Miss just said good tea to serve Mr. Qiao and the third prince, and didn't say anything about Miss Xinyan. The servants only acted according to Miss Xinyan's wishes. Please forgive me, Miss Xinyan."
Seeing that Chuqing not only did not admit her mistake, but instead talked back, Shen Xinyan felt that her authority had been seriously affected, and the expression on her face turned cold unconsciously. He shouted: "Chuqing, you are so courageous, do you know that Miss Xinyan is the future heir of the Xiangfu, if you dare to disrespect the heir, do you know the consequences?"
Chu Qing was thinking about how to answer, when a cold voice floated from far to near.
"The consequences of learning about the heir are very tragic, but in fact, according to the rules of the Prime Minister's Mansion, the head of the first family, although Xinyan's younger sister is more beautiful than me, and she is so-so in all aspects, but she was born by the wrong fate."
As the words fell, Shen Jinyan also opened the door and walked out, and everyone present at the scene understood what she said to the point just now, she was born in the wrong life, doesn't it mean that Shen Xinyan came from the stepmother?
Zi Hua still wanted to say more, but Shen Xinyan cast a cold look at her, and shouted on the spot, "Zi Hua, what are you talking about here, my sister is the future heir of this Xiangfu, you just said something rude, why don't you hurry up and apologize to your sister."
Zi Hua was clever, so he naturally knew that this was the best way to solve this matter, so he took two steps forward and saluted Shen Jin who was walking towards the stone table, "Your servant was outspoken just now, please Miss punishes."
Everyone thought that Shen Jinyan would just calm things down like this, but they didn't want Shen Jinyan to sneer and say: "Since you know you are wrong, why don't you clap your hands quickly! Or do you want to lose the face of my Xiangfu!"
"Miss Xinyan—"
Zi Hua wanted to ask for help, but Shen Xinyan didn't give her any extra expressions.
Thinking of the presence of Yu Wenhao and their two big Buddhas today, she couldn't lose face of her own lady, so she raised her hand and slapped her on the mouth. Shen Jinyan, who made a fool of the two servants, stopped them.
"That's good, but don't break the appearance, go out and say that I use my power to abuse you!"
"Thank you for your pity, Miss." Zi Hua said through gritted teeth.
Although Shen Jinyan could hear her hatred for him, he didn't care about it at all. His eyes fell on Yu Wenhao and Qiao Jinling, he took a casual look at them, and smiled at them indifferently.
This smile was regarded as a greeting, and at the same time, it indirectly replaced the cumbersome luggage ceremony. He walked two steps straight and sat directly on the only stone bench left, apologizing.
"Young Master Qiao, the Third Prince, you have kept the two of you waiting for a long time! If the hospitality is not good, please also invite Haihan."
"Miss Shen, you are being polite, but the Third Prince and I took the liberty to disturb you!"
"Young Master Qiao is right, but we didn't think carefully enough to disturb Miss Shen, you are recuperating!" Yu Wenhao echoed.
"You two are being polite, but my place is small, so I have wronged you two!" Shen Jinyan said casually, but in his heart he was thinking about how to get rid of these two big Buddhas quickly.
Yu Wenhao took a sip of the water in the glass, and said with a half-smile: "Since Ms. Shen knows that we have been wronged, why don't you invite us to have a good meal outside to make up for this wrong?"
