Reborn Lady's Scheming

Chapter 123 Brocade
Seeing her elder brother enter the Songshou Hall to pay her respects to her grandmother, Xie Wanqing wandered around the garden for a while.

Most of the flowers in autumn are withered and yellow, but Xie Wanqing thinks it is very beautiful, maybe the main reason is that she is in a good mood.

Lingshu had already made snacks, came to the garden and saw Xie Wanqing, and followed behind Xie Wanqing, not leaving every step, peeking at the faint smile on her face, it seemed that the young lady was in a good mood.

"Miss, although the sun will be shining and it looks warm, it's still not suitable to stay outside for too long due to the cold autumn wind." Lingshu's voice was not loud, reminding Xie Wanqing.

"Cough... the weather is getting colder. I want to get close to nature but I'm afraid of catching cold. Why don't we go to the Chrysanthemum Garden." For some reason, Xie Wanqing was very happy when she heard what her brother said today. After all, I walked the same path as myself.

"It's better to let Lingshu go shopping with Miss. Su Wen will go back and make a bowl of ginseng soup for Miss. After seeing the chrysanthemums later, I can go back to drive away the cold air." Su Wen said lightly.

Xie Wanqing waved her hand, they are always considerate of themselves, if you don't let her do this, and you feel too lazy to do nothing, Xie Wanqing will simply let them drink whatever they do.

After Su Wen left, Xie Wanqing fell into thoughts again. In the past, no matter what she did, Xie Wanqing was always apprehensive. After all, Xie Zian always disdained to do this and hated that.

She was particularly afraid that her elder brother would find out what she should not have done, and her only relative, family affection, was so pitiful that it might be in vain.

It's different now, since Xie Zi'an has acquiesced to this matter, he must also accept everything after that, such as Miss Lin's family...

Xie Wanqing and Lingshu walked back and forth for a while, Lingshu finally felt sorry for Xie Wanqing's body, and asked with concern: "Miss, are you tired? Do you need to rest for a while?"

"If you don't remind me, I really don't feel tired. My legs are really sore and numb. Why don't I rest in the pavilion in front." Xie Wanqing pointed to the small pavilion not far away.

The pavilion is not big, it is located on the rockery, and it is used for two or three people to enjoy the cool and rest in the heat of summer.

The master and servant came to the pavilion slowly, and Xie Wanqing, the spiritual pivot attendant, sat down and said, "Miss, after walking for a long time, are you thirsty? My maidservant, go and get you something to drink."

Xie Wanqing nodded and let her go, sitting alone in the gazebo looking at the garden below, looking at the withered petals, thinking of the women in the back garden, feeling a little sad.

At this time, a bright pink dress danced gracefully, attracting Xie Wanqing's eyes.

Taking a closer look, it was Xie Siru, she was wearing a bright pink long dress, with elegant silver ornaments on her head, she looked beautiful and refined, she was such a beauty.

If she hadn't done such vicious things in her last life, maybe Xie Wanqing would have treated her well, but now...

Just as Xie Wanqing was in a daze, Lingshu took back hot tea and served her to moisten her throat.

At this time, Lingshu also saw Xie Siru dancing in the garden, rolled his eyes and said disdainfully: "Like her mother, she is a country boy, and she doesn't know how to show off in brocade, hum!"

"She has just recovered from poisoning this time, and she has learned some lessons after thinking about it." Xie Wanqing deliberately glanced at others and put it down. Every time she saw her, she always felt burning pain in her eyes, and bits and pieces of her previous life appeared in front of her eyes all the time. , She was really afraid that she couldn't help strangling this woman to death.

"Hmph, what can be changed with a girl like her." Lingshu snorted.

Indeed, Xie Siru was arrogant and arrogant on weekdays, and never paid attention to the servants, many people complained to her, and the girls who were in charge of personal service were just daring to be angry and dare not speak out.

Xie Wanqing raised the corner of her mouth, thinking: Happy?dance?One day, I will make you want to cry but have no tears, life is better than death.

At this moment, a flash of inspiration flashed in my mind, and an idea flashed across.

"By the way, what did you just say?" Xie Wanqing turned her head and asked Lingshu.

"Ah? Miss, don't be angry, slaves will not dare to be presumptuous in the future." Lingshu thought that the eldest lady blamed her, so frightened, he quickly apologized.

"No, what you said just now gave me an idea, but I can't remember it all at once." Xie Wanqing looked at the chrysanthemums in the distance, many colors were blooming, it was really beautiful, but in her heart Thinking about what just came to mind.

Lingshu thought for a while, then asked in a daze: "You mean it's impossible to change something like her?"

"It's not this sentence, what did you say before?" Xie Wanqing fell into deep thought.

"Wear a brocade...is it a brocade?" Lingshu's eyes lit up.

Xie Wanqing quickly smiled and said, "Yes, it is the brocade. Has the brocade offered this year been distributed?"

Lingshu curled his lips and murmured: "Miss Hui, there was a flood in the south this year, so a large number of tributes have not arrived for a while, but I heard that a small batch has arrived a few days ago. Second Miss's body The material looks like a high-quality brocade at first glance, it must be a high-quality tribute bestowed by the emperor.

"So that's how it is." Xie Wanqing suddenly realized, and then asked, "Did our yard send it over?"

"I gave you two blanks, but ordinary ladies like simple and elegant dresses, and they always say brocades are too luxurious and don't wear them very often, so the slaves put the brocades in the warehouse, and you can pick them up whenever you need them. "Lingshu has followed Xie Wanqing for many years and understands her thoughts very well.

Xie Wanqing nodded and said: "Okay, you go and get it together, I want to give it as a favor."

"Miss, that is the best brocade, who is it worth giving it to?" Lingshu was a little curious, these satins were extremely expensive, and no one would wear them for banquets or other big events.

Of course, except for the concubine second lady who burned the buns.

"I have my own measure, you go and prepare it, I'll wait for you back in the Shang Pavilion." Xie Wanqing raised the corners of her mouth, with a faint smile on her face.

"Yes, ma'am, this servant will leave." After saluting, Lingshu turned and left.

Xie Wanqing had almost rested, she stood up and moved a few times, walked down the steps slowly, intending to go back to Changshang Pavilion, but inadvertently caught a glimpse of her father and elder brother walking over.

Thinking about it, Xie Zi'an had always had a bad relationship with his father except for greetings in the morning and evening. The happy conversation at this time must have something to do with the hunting three days later, which also strengthened Xie Wanqing's guess.

Compared with the princes and grandsons invited for this paddock hunt by my brother, there will definitely be brothers from the Lin family, and Lin Mengyao is very likely to participate.

This is why Xie Wanqing was in a good mood when she heard about the hunting, which means that her elder brother accepted Lin Mengyao to enter Xie's house. As for how to enter this door, it seems that the two brothers and sisters need to work hard to have hope.

However, Xie Wanqing had already guessed his intention based on Xie Zian's invitation to hunt in the paddock. This kind of wisdom and carefulness are really rare.

Xie Wanqing raised her eyes, seeing that her father and elder brother would meet Xie Mengru in two more flower beds, she quickened her steps, and this matter could not be disturbed by this girl anyway.

Thinking of this, she walked faster and faster.

Fortunately, Xie Zi'an and Xie Chongguang walked very slowly while chatting.

Xie Wanqing grabbed a handful of dirt on the ground, making the palms of her hands very dirty.

After finishing, he walked quickly to Xie Mengru.

Xie Wanqing smiled with envy on her face: "My sister's dress is really good. It's tailored to suit my sister's waist. It's just that these swallows are shown on the pink brocade. I don't know who made the clothes for my sister?"

Since there was not much time, Xie Wanqing went straight to the point without any polite words.

"Hey, sister, this is the brocade given to me by my father, why? Is my sister envious? Or is it jealous?" Xie Siru didn't take Xie Wanqing's words to heart at all, and immediately retorted. Qiu winked.

Xie Wanqing took a few steps closer to Xie Siru, Zhiqiu walked over and said, "Greetings to Miss."

After Xie Wanqing waved her hand to avoid the ceremony, unexpectedly, Zhiqiu did not retreat but advanced, and tripped over with one foot. It was Xie Mengru's instruction to make Xie Wanqing lose face.

Unexpectedly, Xie Wanqing made a quick decision and took advantage of her stumbling to rush towards Xie Mengru. Her hands that were already scratching black made several black handprints on her pale pink shirt, and there was still mud on it.

"Ah!..." Xie Siru didn't expect this ending at all, and she was so angry that she couldn't even say a whole sentence: "You! I didn't expect you..."

"What's the matter with you slave? Why did you trip me just now?" Xie Wanqing was furious, and seeing Xie Siru's face was cloudy and uncertain, she added: "My sister's slave is so presumptuous that he can stretch his legs and trip at will. Miss's level, I think it's time to teach me a lesson!"

"Ah? Yes... I'm sorry, sister, Siru is leaving." Xie Siru hurriedly turned and left.

At this moment, Xie Chongguang and Xie Zi'an happened to walk over, only seeing Xie Siru's back.

Xie Wanqing let out a deep breath, and took a few steps forward to salute her father and elder brother.

"How is Wan'er doing these past few days? Your brother is inviting you to go hunting, why don't you join us?" I didn't expect Xie Chongguang to be very happy about the hunting, so he took the initiative to invite Xie Wanqing.

Of course, Xie Wanqing readily agreed, "Wan'er is saying that I'm feeling bored these days, but I don't know where to go. Since I have such a good opportunity, Wan'er must go to see my father and elder brother's demeanor."

"Hahaha... good." Xie Wanqing's words made Xie Chongguang laugh heartily.

Xie Chongguang's eyes flashed, and he asked, "Was Ru'er here just now? I don't know how to say hello to my father, and I really don't understand the rules."

"Father, calm down. My sister was too young to resist the danger of the five poisonous weeds. She must have felt unwell when she came out to take a breath today, and she was worried that her father would be worried, so she left in a hurry." Xie Wanqing said. The words were very ingenious, as soon as he used the poisoning as an excuse, Xie Mengru would not be able to participate in the hunting if he thought about it.

If her father mentioned it to her, she would definitely attend, and she would leave an impression in her father's heart that she was too delicate and ignorant of etiquette.

"In that case, let her go." Xie Chongguang waved his hand.

Xie Wanqing saw that the time was almost up, presumably Lingshu had brought back the clothes from the warehouse, so she bowed to her father and left, leaving Xie Zi'an to chat with him.
