MTL - The Legitimate Daughter Returns: The Real Daughter is Reborn-Chapter 55 country girl
Chapter 55 Country Girl
Perhaps he was worried that Su Leyun was really angry, so Xiao Shengyu did not go with her.
Instead, together with Su Ye and Lu Huaiyuan, the three of them walked in front to open the way.
Princess Anle was a few steps behind and followed Su Leyun.
“Miss Su Er, the plum blossom you sent me last time really shocked me. How did you put its branches together?”
"I just used some medicine. If Princess Anle is interested, I will have someone send the prescription and method to the princess' mansion later."
Su Leyun smiled. Facing Princess Anle, she felt much more relaxed.
Princess Anle was more curious about Su Leyun, a young lady who came back from Jingzhou, but she couldn't see the slightest panic when facing her.
Even some women in the capital don't have such courage.
There is a Jade House on Chang'an Street, which is elegantly decorated and is a restaurant frequented by literati.
The group of people happened to pass by Jade Tower and heard the sounds coming from inside, which seemed to be very lively.
“Brother Emperor, we have been shopping for a while, why not go in and have a rest.”
Princess Anle said and walked into the Jade Building first. Xiao Shengyu smiled helplessly, maybe his sister was tired from shopping.
“In that case, let’s go in together.”
Entering the Jade Building, there were several people standing on the stage in the center, seemingly painting.
The waiter hurriedly came up to us and led everyone upstairs.
Su Waner was walking behind a few people when she suddenly heard a sound. When she looked up, she saw Li Mengyao and several ladies from aristocratic families standing at the railing on the second floor.
Several ladies from aristocratic families naturally noticed Xiao Shengyu and saluted one after another.
Li Mengyao walked to Su Waner, looked at King Jin and Princess Anle, and whispered: "Why are you here with King Jin and Princess Anle? That Su Leyun won't really climb up to King Jin, right?"
"Sister Mengyao, sister Yun'er are not like that." Su Waner quickly explained, "It just happened that when we arrived, King Jin was talking to cousin Huaiyuan by the river, and that's when we met."
"Why do you always speak for her? I don't know if your sister treats you as a sister." Li Mengyao was dubious about Su Waner's explanation, "And the last time about Long Youmei, I heard that she really treated Meihua Did you feed it? Is it really not the one I found for you before?"
Su Wan'er pursed her lips, her eyes twinkling, "Sister Mengyao, don't ask, this matter is over. As long as sister Yun'er is okay, it will be fine."
Li Mengyao felt suspicious when she saw her expression.
“So she really presented the Longyoumei plant I found for you to the princess?”
Su Waner shook her head but did not explain. In fact, Li Mengyao became more convinced of her guess.
Just as she was about to walk towards Princess Anle, Su Wan'er grabbed her.
“Sister Mengyao, forget it. Don’t mention this matter again. If Sister Mengyao is implicated, how will Wan’er deal with herself?”
“Okay, I won’t talk about it anymore.”
Li Mengyao sighed helplessly, but Su Waner's words came to her heart again, which made her feel more and more good about Su Waner.
At this time, there was applause from the audience.
It turned out that the people on the stage had finished painting, and the waiter was holding it up to show it to the guests down the stage and on the second floor.
There were a lot of people, so we divided the table into two.
Xiao Shengyu sat at the same table as Princess Anle, and Lu Xueying also sat down with her brother.
Although Su Ye was also among them, Su Leyun naturally would not go over, so he chose another table to sit down.
Su Waner was dragged to their table by Li Mengyao, so when Su Leyun sat down, she and Lu Xueya were the only ones at the table.
“Cousin Xue Ya.”
Su Leyun smiled and looked at Lu Xueya with some indifference.
The latter nodded calmly, said nothing, and was very silent.
The winner of the painting downstairs has been decided, and the shopkeeper of Jade Tower stood on the stage to announce the next competition.
It is a guessing activity.
Everyone present can participate.
Su Leyun was not interested in this. He just ate the cakes and watched the others guessing riddles.
“Cousin Xue Ya, don’t you want to eat?”
Facing Su Leyun's confused gaze, confusion gradually emerged in Lu Xueya's heart.
Her cousin who came back from Jingzhou seems to be very different from Su Waner.
If you know that this kind of occasion can show your talent, Su Waner will definitely not miss it.
Just as she was talking, a voice came from Su Wan'er's side.
Lu Xueya turned around and saw Su Waner standing up and solving a puzzle in front of everyone.
Looking at Su Wan'er's pretending to be humble, Lu Xueya looked away, a hint of sarcasm flashing across her eyes.
She looked at Su Leyun and suddenly said, "Sister Yun'er, don't you feel aggrieved?"
“Grieved?” Su Leyun looked at Lu Xueya in confusion, “What does cousin mean by this?”
"Obviously you are supposed to be the only legitimate daughter in the Hou family, but your identity is robbed by a dove who occupies a magpie's nest. Are you willing to do so?"
Su Leyun put down the cake in his hand, wiped the corners of his mouth gently, and then slowly said: "I don't care about the identity of the legitimate daughter of the Hou family, so why would I be unwilling to do so?"
Lu Xueya couldn't even say a word and sneered: "You say this, do you believe it?"
A new riddle came out from the audience. Lu Xueya suddenly stretched out her hand and raised Su Leyun's hand.
For a time, everyone’s eyes were focused on him.
Su Leyun raised his eyebrows and looked at Lu Xueya, with no panic on his face.
“Does this lady know the answer?”
“Sister Yun’er…”
Su Wan'er couldn't help being startled when she saw that the person raising her hand was Su Leyun.
Seeing that Su Leyun didn't answer, the shopkeeper asked again.
“This lady probably didn’t know the answer at all, so she just raised her hand randomly.”
Li Mengyao's voice did not restrain itself at all and spread throughout the restaurant.
Su Wan'er quickly spoke up, "This is the first time for sister Yun'er to participate in such an event. Maybe she thought it was fun, so she raised her hand. Please don't blame me."
This explanation made some people even more dissatisfied.
“Sister Yun’er, please apologize to everyone quickly.”
Su Waner looked at Su Leyun anxiously, as if she was extremely worried about her.
The ladies from aristocratic families who were sitting with Li Mengyao looked at each other and couldn't help but whisper.
“It turns out that she is the young lady from the Hou Mansion who just came back from Jingzhou. No wonder she always feels a little out of place when she looks at her, and she has a petty air.”
“I heard that this young lady used to live in the countryside. I’m afraid she doesn’t know a few words and can’t even understand puzzles.”
“She dared to raise her hand randomly in such an occasion. I really don’t know who gave her the face.”
The sarcastic voice is unrestrained.
Su Wan'er was happy to see Su Leyun's joke, but she still said deliberately: "Sisters, give Wan'er some face. I don't think Sister Yun'er did it on purpose."
