Revenge of the First Daughter - Chapter 153
Chapter 153 It Was Actually Him
Yun Xiao stood in front of the carriage and felt the gazes of all sorts of people. Yun Xiao still smiled faintly and the corners of her mouth lifted slightly.
After a long time, there was no movement in the carriage. Chun Lan’s expression was apprehensive. She wanted to persuade the girl to leave, but was stopped by Yun Xiao. The corner of her mouth smiled and her gaze was like water. She was not moved at all by the guidance of the people outside. The carriage curtain was lifted by a good looking hand. The curtain flew away, her white hands were clear, and the joints were clear, attracting the attention of many people.
When everyone was daydreaming about this hand, the curtain was raised and half of the master’s chin was finally revealed. His chin was small and round, extremely stylish, and his skin was extremely delicate.
When Yun Xiao saw this, a loud buzzing sound suddenly rang out in her mind, “It’s actually … it’s actually him?”
Just a month ago, when she and Chun Lan were returning from the palace together, they encountered a life-saving carriage on the road, and this scene was actually similar to the man they saw that day.
Although it was just a glance, Yun Xiao remembered it clearly.
If Rong Jin hadn’t only raised half the curtain and covered half of her face today, she wouldn’t have linked the two of them together.
“If you don’t mind, young lady, then come in,” said an extremely pleasant male voice from the carriage, which unconsciously drowned one in admiration.
Yun Xiao smiled bitterly, thanked him and got into the carriage.
After entering the carriage, Yun Xiao looked at the people in the carriage very naturally. There were only two people in the carriage. The owner of the hand just now was indeed Rong Jin.
After Yun Xiao was shocked for a moment, all she could do was ponder.
After Chun Lan got into the carriage, she thanked softly, “Thank you two young masters.” No matter what, she had already taught butler Li a lesson. It was best not to go to the banquet too late. She was worried that the girl would become the target of public criticism. Now that she took the carriage, she had solved this problem.
Yun Xiao sat in the corner of the door very regularly. She did not look at the two of them, but one of them was not biased towards silence. She laughed and said, “Fourth Young Lady, it has been a long time since we last saw each other.”
Yun Xiao looked at him with a faint smile. “It’s indeed been a long time.” Ever since they parted in Yun Clan last time, Rong Jin hadn’t been in Yun Mansion, and he wasn’t allowed to go out.
Jiang Qing blinked her lively eyes and signaled for Yun Xiao to look outside. “Why did Fourth Young Lady offend the people of the Third Prince’s Mansion? She actually let Housekeeper Li of the Third Prince’s Mansion chase after you on the streets?”
Yun Xiao really wanted to roll her eyes. Unfortunately, under everyone’s gaze, Yun Xiao did not have the courage to do so. She only snorted coldly, “I am just the daughter of a powerless businessman. How could I offend the people of the Third Prince’s Mansion? Are you joking?”
Jiang Qing raised his voice and laughed twice. Recently, he especially liked to look at Yun Xiao’s indifferent expression, which had not changed for ten thousand years. “Am I joking? Fourth Young Lady, just look outside.”
Yun Xiao followed Jiang Qing’s gaze and saw that Butler Li had already driven the carriage over. He quickly got off the carriage in front of them and ran over anxiously. “This servant has seen Young Master Rong before. I have offended you so much. Please don’t take offense, Young Master Rong.”
Jiang Qing blinked her eyes and said sternly, “Who are you? Why did you stop our carriage?”
“This servant is the housekeeper of the Third Prince’s Mansion. I originally invited the fourth young miss of Yun Clan to the Third Prince’s Mansion for a banquet. I didn’t want the carriage to have a problem halfway through, so I delayed for a while. This servant invited the fourth young miss back to the carriage.”
Yun Xiao snorted coldly. Her expression was very unhappy, and even her tone was indifferent. “No need, I feel that Young Master Rong’s carriage is better than the carriage of the Third Prince’s Mansion. At least it won’t jolt.”
After Yun Xiao finished speaking, she threw down the curtain and whispered, “Young Master Rong, let’s go.”
Rong Jin watched Yun Xiao’s every move. This was the first time he had seen Yun Xiao since the day they parted. “Fourth Young Lady, you’re welcome. We’re also going to the Third Prince’s Mansion. May I ask if we’re going together?”
Yun Xiao blinked her eyes and chuckled. “Naturally,” she said. However, when she remembered Butler Li’s performance just now, she snorted coldly. “However, before going to the Third Prince’s Mansion, I want to go to another place.”
Seeing Yun Xiao’s mysterious appearance, Jiang Qing asked curiously, “Where are you going?”
“You’ll know when you get there.”
Housekeeper Li saw that Rong Jin’s carriage was already far away, so he immediately turned around and sat down in the carriage. “Quickly follow that carriage,” he said. No matter what, he was going to have a disaster.
However, Butler Li noticed that something was amiss as he walked. This carriage was not going to the Third Prince’s Mansion, but to the main street?
Butler Li became even more anxious as time passed.
Very quickly, the carriage stopped at the entrance of a garment shop. Yun Xiao smiled and said, “Thank you, Young Master Rong. I’m going in to buy a set of clothes. May I know if you two can come together?”
“Aren’t your clothes all right? What are you going to change into?” Jiang Qing frowned, puzzled.
Yun Xiao got out of the carriage and ignored Jiang Qing. This was just one of the excuses. As for the second, it was naturally a lesson for Butler Li, who had his eyes above the top. “There are wrinkles in his clothes. It’s obviously disrespectful for him to wear such clothes to be a guest.”
Chun Lan immediately got off the carriage.
When the two of them disappeared from the carriage, Jiang Qing looked at Rong Jin and asked, “Big brother, are you really going to do this for the fourth girl?”
Rong Jin’s expression was slightly stunned, his gaze carrying a strange expression, “There’s no need to say anything else.” He then blinded the carriage.
Jiang Qing felt that being alone in the carriage was too boring, so he followed them out of the carriage. However, just as they arrived at the entrance of the clothing shop, they were blocked in front by Steward Li from the Third Prince’s Mansion. Steward Li bowed in embarrassment and said, “Young Master Rong.”
Rong Jin only raised his eyebrows, his expression unchanging. “Is there anything wrong with Butler Li following us all the way?” Along the way, although he didn’t say anything, Rong Jin still knew about the fact that there was always a carriage following behind his carriage.
A drop of cold sweat oozed from Steward Li’s forehead. However, he didn’t dare to reach out and wipe it. “I have something to ask of you,” he said. Seeing that Rong Jin’s expression did not change and he did not say anything, he pondered for a moment before continuing, “This servant was ordered to invite the fourth young miss to the Third Prince’s mansion. However, the fourth young miss is not willing to be a servant’s carriage now, and it has been delayed for so long. This servant pleads with Young Master Rong to comfort the fourth young miss and let her take the servant’s carriage to the Third Prince’s mansion.”
After Rong Jin heard this, his gaze sank. He coldly snorted and walked towards the clothing shop.
Jiang Qing, however, wasn’t as indifferent as Rong Jin. The corner of his mouth hooked slightly. He said with a faint smile, “Young master Rong although don’t mind your words, But no one was willing to do such a thankless thing, Although these four girls were usually gentle like water, However, everyone familiar with Fourth Young Lady knows that once she decides on one thing, she won’t be able to pull back a few bulls. You offended Fourth Young Lady yourself, but you let my Young Master get scolded. What’s the point of this? Before my Young Master throws you out, I advise you to leave early, otherwise, it won’t be such kind words to persuade you later. ”
After Jiang Qing finished speaking, he did not look at Butler Li’s suddenly ugly face. He sneered and continued to walk into the clothing shop. He was now more and more interested in this fourth young lady, and he had a faint expectation of what would happen when he arrived at the Third Prince’s mansion.
Yun Xiao did not know that Jiang Qing’s few words had already earned her a reputation for being stubborn.
Of course, even if Yun Xiao knew, she wouldn’t mind. Compared to her and the Yun Family’s lives, these things were so insignificant.
Housekeeper Li’s expression became even more embarrassed when he saw that Jiang Qing had also disappeared from the garment shop. He was not in a good mood at the moment and wanted to go back to the mansion directly. However, when he thought that he could not invite Yun Xiao, once Yun Xiao told him what had happened today at the banquet, he would definitely not be punished for what he would face at that time.
He thought for a moment and followed him into the garment shop.
Yun Xiao held a lotus-white dress and stroked her body a few times. Then, she asked Lady Su beside her, “Lady Su, do you think it would be rude for me to wear this dress to the banquet?”
Lady Su was an elderly woman. Of course, she was also the shopkeeper of this clothing shop. However, this shop also belonged to the Yun Clan. Most of Yun Xiao’s clothes came from her hands. She had already understood what Yun Xiao meant when she entered the door. She smiled and said, “Clothes won’t be rude. However, now that she wears these clothes, it seems a little cold.”
Indeed, this skirt is an autumn dress. Although it looks good, it is winter now. If you wear such a dress, you will really freeze to death.
After hearing this, Yun Xiao reluctantly put down the clothes in her hand, “Then Lady Su, help me choose some clothes.”
Lady Su happily replied and immediately invited Yun Xiao to sit down. Not long after, Lady Su returned with her maidservant. The maidservant held a few sets of clothes in her hands. “Fourth young miss, these clothes are the most popular styles nowadays. The design is also good, so it would be most suitable to attend the banquet.”
Yun Xiao stood up and touched her clothes a few times. The corner of her mouth slightly raised, “Indeed, it’s not bad.” She picked a few times back and forth, In the end, she chose a moon-white dress, The dress was made of Su Jin and was covered with a layer of light veil. The veil was decorated with red gemstones the size of a fingernail. The waist was tied with a light purple belt. The belt was hanging with a light purple tassels. Just a glance made people like it. “This one, as for the rest, it was all wrapped up.”
This dress was so beautiful that Yun Xiao could naturally see it with a single glance. She glanced at Butler Li who was following her with a faint smile in her eyes.
Yun Xiao quickly changed her clothes. When she walked out, everyone couldn’t help but look sideways. Yun Xiao was originally delicate and handsome. Her palm-sized face carried a faint smile. Her expression was gentle and her gaze was like water. A casual dress on a peaceful day had a very different feeling.
Rong Jin raised his head to face Yun Xiao’s little face. His hands holding the teacup were slightly stunned. His gaze turned and met the woman’s face. At this moment, his heart suddenly accelerated. However, Rong Jin quickly reacted. The teacup in his hand was also put down. He chuckled and said, “I didn’t expect Fourth Young Lady to be a beauty.”
Yun Xiao’s face was slightly red. Of course, she was not shy, but angry at Rong Jin’s words. Although she also knew that her appearance was a lot different from a beauty like Lan Shuya, Rong Jin’s pointing out like this still made Yun Xiao very unhappy.
She had already inquired about it today, and Lan Shuya had also been invited to the Third Prince’s Mansion. Therefore, her entire body and clothes were for Lan Shuya to see. She snorted coldly and asked Chun Lan to bring the packed clothes over. Her gaze turned and she suddenly said with frustration, “Oh no, I forgot to bring the silver.”
Jiang Qing was originally surprised by Yun Xiao’s change at this moment. However, when she saw Yun Xiao’s lively expression, she couldn’t help but smile. No matter how beautifully dressed she was, the woman opposite her was still the fourth young lady of Yun Clan, Yun Xiao.
Just as he was about to say that this shop belonged to the Yun Clan, it didn’t matter if he brought the silver or not, he saw Steward Li immediately curry favor and said, “This servant brought the silver, this servant will pay.”
The corner of Jiang Qing’s mouth twitched slightly. So this was Yun Xiao’s goal.
Yun Xiao only smiled apologetically at Housekeeper Li, “Then I’ll have to trouble Housekeeper Li.” After saying that, he walked out without looking at Steward Li’s suddenly stiff face.
