Chapter 93 Delicate Mind

After Wei Yanran and Zhao Yuying returned to Lanzhai together, they sat in front of the bronze mirror inlaid with green agate and eight treasure patterns, and took off the hairpin full of thoughts.

For today's Zhanglu Banquet, she dressed up specially, and also wore the golden silk-encrusted tourmaline hairpin specially made for her by her mother during the New Year's Eve.

Zhao Yuying raised her thin eyebrows when she saw her hairpin, and asked, "This hairpin is really pretty, why haven't you seen you wear it before?"

Wei Yanran's eyes flickered slightly, and she said: "It's been in the makeup box for a long time, and I forgot about it. When I saw it today, I took it out and put it on."

She turned around and said to Zhao Yuying: "I'm nothing more than a pussy willow. Even if I wear a beautiful hairpin, it's useless. I can't compare to Sister Yuying's natural beauty."

Zhao Yuying smiled slightly, declined a few words, and asked her how she felt about today's exams.

Wei Yanran said: "I'm not sure, and I don't know whether my answer is good or bad, I just think that doing my best should be enough." After she finished speaking, she changed the subject, "But I see that there is one Very handy."

As if realizing that she had made a slip of the tongue, she stopped in time, and smiled flatteringly at Zhao Yuying: "Of course, I think that person must be inferior to Sister Yuying."

Zhao Yuying was looking at the nails dyed by Koudan against the light in the room. Her five fingers were slender, white and tender, with a touch of vermilion on her fingertips. Who?"

Wei Yanran was very embarrassed: "It's... Yun Zhuo." She looked at Zhao Yuying's face, and added, "But she has never learned anything in the academy, maybe she just wrote something carelessly today?"

She looked like a city man again, and praised: "But she looks very good today, sister Yuying, you didn't see, when she sat down, almost everyone around the Zhanglu Terrace turned their attention to her."

Zhao Yuying glanced at her, but said nothing.She knew that Wei Yanran was tricked by Yun Zhuo a few days ago, and her reputation in the academy was damaged. She said this to provoke her anger and trouble Yun Zhuo.But she is not so stupid, she has long seen that Yun Zhuo is a shameless temper, and having a feud with her is almost equivalent to pulling herself down from the position of the noble daughter of the aristocratic family.

Yun Zhuo is willing to let go, but she can't.

Seeing that she was unmoved, Wei Yanran gritted her teeth, turned around and continued to remove the hairpin, and said, "I heard that Mr. Xie and Yun Zhuo traveled hand in hand a few days ago. I don't know if this is true or not. But I and On the day Yun Zhuo had an argument, he happened to see Master Xie sending her back."

"Master Xie has some kind of friendship with her teacher, so she is naturally closer to her than to others." Zhao Yuying said lightly.

Although she was also jealous of Yun Zhuo because of this, she was not stupid enough to hate her because of this jealousy.

"It's true. I saw that she treated Master Xie differently. That day it was clearly Master Xie who sent her back. When I met her, I happened to see her back watching Master Xie go away. I felt lost." After finishing speaking , she chuckled, "However, maybe I was wrong. Sister Yuying, don't take what I said to heart. You will have to try out riding skills tomorrow morning. Go to bed earlier and keep your spirits up is the right way." thing."

Zhao Yuying gave a "hmm" and said suddenly: "I think I seem to have a hairpin left outside, I'll look for it, you should rest first."

Wei Yanran was lying on her side on the bed, when she heard her words, she pursed her lips slightly and said hello softly.

……

Pei Wanyin had already fallen asleep, and Yunzhuo had been sitting for almost a whole day today, and now she was soaking her feet, planning to relax.

Suddenly a ball of paper was thrown in from the window, right in her arms.

She unfolded the note, and saw that Zhao Yuying ordered her servants to buy crotons written on it.

Since Zhang Lu's Banquet adopts a gradual elimination system, the winners of the essay test will not be announced until tomorrow morning, so Zhao Yuying is planning, after the quota is announced tomorrow, who will not be able to participate in the competition?
The horses for tomorrow's riding test will be randomly selected by everyone, how will she feed the crotons to the horses?

No, maybe people?

Who Zhao Yuying wants to harm, Yun Zhuo will know the next day.

Because the next morning, she received a crystal cake from an unfamiliar girl.

In fact, in Lanzhai, in order to live a better life in the academy, some girls with lower family background would often take some pastries to eat, or distribute sachets and handkerchiefs made by themselves to the noble girls in Lanzhai.

Pei Wanyin just took a big basket, but Yun Zhuo never received it. As for the reason, she probably knows the reason. One is that she is a concubine, and her status is not high in the eyes of others; She is tough, even unreasonable, and the little girls are afraid of her; the third thing is that she has no close friends except Pei Wanyin, maybe they think she is not easy to get close to.

But the person who usually dare not even say a word to her suddenly came to deliver something to her abnormally, and took the time today, isn't it a bit too coincidental?
She smiled playfully, looked at the timid girl in front of her, took the plate, and said to her, "Wait a moment."

Yun Zhuo turned and went back to the house, and took a piece of white jade engraved lotus pattern Yan style pendant to her, and said: "Thank you for your cakes, this jade pendant is for you, and I have the right to return it."

The girl bit her lip and took the jade pendant, thanked her hastily, and hurriedly left.

Yun Zhuo also returned to the house with the dish.

Pei Wanyin ate the crabmeat steamed buns brought by Fu Lu from the dining hall, saw the plain white porcelain plate in her hand, which contained exquisite crystal cakes, and asked with a smile: "Who brought it here? But you What's the matter, someone sent you pastries with good intentions, how can you give back a piece of jade pendant bought with two taels of silver?"

She also saw the jade pendant in Yun Zhuo's hand just now, it was clearly the pendant she bought for two taels of silver at the flower festival last time.Even low-quality jade is not counted, and I don't know what material it is.

Yun Zhuo put the crystal cake on the table, told her about Zhao Yuying, and finally said: "Do you think the cake is too suspicious?"

"So you gave that girl the jade pendant, did you deliberately leave a way for her? If Zhao Yuying really sent this plate of cakes, if she told you the truth, you will claim that you took it by mistake and give her another piece of jade." , if she doesn't say anything, this piece of jade has the right to teach her a lesson, right?"

Yun Zhuo nodded: "However, there is not enough time now. I don't know if there is any croton in this crystal cake. I'll go to the racecourse first. It's hot today, so don't worry about it. Just wait until I come back for dinner."

Pei Wanyin nodded obediently, sent her out of Lanzhai, and just returned to the house and said to Fu Lu who came to look for her: "In terms of Linglong's mind, I think no one can compare to my cousin."
