Revenge of the First Daughter - Chapter 59

Chapter 059 Drama Is Like Life
A carriage slowly stopped at the entrance of the Heart Seeking Restaurant. Rong Jin got off the Spurs first, and then Yun Xiao stepped on the foot stool and got off the carriage.

Yun Xiao glanced at the queue of queues in front of the pharmacy and smiled. “I didn’t expect that your pharmacy’s business would be so good.”

“It’s all thanks to Fourth Young Lady,” Rong Jin smiled faintly and said softly. His gaze also fell on the people in line. All of these people came here because of the attraction of the Snow Rong Pill. After the experiment, the Snow Rong Pill was indeed much better than what Yun Xiao had said before.

Yun Xiao smiled lightly and walked towards the Heart Seeking Restaurant with Rong Jin, “It’s still Young Master Rong’s credit. Otherwise, if I had a prescription, I wouldn’t be able to do so.”

As soon as they entered, the shopkeeper came to welcome them. Of course, the person welcoming them was Rong Jin. “Owner, the private room you wanted is already prepared.”

Rong Jin turned to look at Yun Xiao behind him, “Fourth Miss, please.”

As soon as they entered the private room, the maids and attendants guarded the door. As soon as they entered, a small figure rolled in and hugged the corner of Yun Xiao’s clothes. She whispered, “Mother, you’re finally here.”

Yun Xiao picked Rong Ruo up and rubbed her baby fat face. She felt soft and comfortable.

“Have you been obedient these past two days?” Yun Xiao hugged Rong Ruo and remembered the scene that she had seen the night before yesterday in Cui Lin Pavilion.

“Of course, Ruo Ruo is the most obedient.” After Rong Ruo finished speaking, she told Yun Xiao everything she had done in the past two days. Yun Xiao listened very carefully and poured a cup of tea for Rong Ruo. “Have a sip of tea and continue.”

Rong Ruo chuckled twice before drinking all the tea. She looked out from Yun Xiao’s line of sight and saw that the pharmacy opposite her was full of people.

The corner of his mouth curved slightly, “Mother, this pharmacy’s business is so good. If there is money in the future, you can take it.”

Yun Xiao laughed, “You, you’re still young!”

Not long after, Chun Lan came to report that Xiao Yuqi had come. Yun Xiao was stunned, and then she said, “Invite her in.”

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a woman wearing a light purple dress walk in and smiled apologetically at the two of them. “I just saw the carriage of the Yun Family on the road and I was wondering if it was Sister Yun. I never thought it was really Sister Yun.”

Yun Xiao smiled and pulled Xiao Yuqi to her seat. She didn’t know why, but she felt that Xiao Yuqi was wrong today, but she didn’t point out, “Yeah, I didn’t expect to meet Sister Xiao either.”

Last time, Xiao Yuqi caught up with her. This time, she and Rong Jin arrived at the Heart Seeking Restaurant, and Xiao Yuqi came. Yunxiao had no choice but to be a little cautious.

Xiao Yuqi’s gaze shifted to Rong Jin, “Young Master Rong.”

“Miss Xiao, please take a seat.” Anyway, Xiao Yuqi’s share of the dividends was also there, so there was no need for him to reject her from a thousand miles away.

Xiao Yuqi looked at the pharmacy with a complicated expression. “I didn’t expect so many people to buy that pill.”

Yun Xiao chuckled, “Yes, but this way, we can earn money.”

Xiao Yuqi smiled embarrassedly before saying, “I wonder who owns this prescription?”

She lowered her eyebrows and looked very shy. However, Yunxiao still felt that something was strange. She said calmly, “I saw it in an ancient book, so I wrote it down. Does Sister Xiao know about this pill?”

Xiao Yuqi whispered, “How could I know such a good pill? I’m just curious. Sister Yun’s luck is good. I can even remember this ancient recipe.”

Yun Xiao chuckled. Before she could say anything, the door was suddenly pushed open. The few of them turned around and saw a woman in a big red dress appear at the door. They frowned.

When Yun Xiao saw the person clearly, although she was unhappy in her heart, she still lifted her sleeves and bowed, “Greetings to the county princess.”

Seeing this, Xiao Yuqi hurriedly bowed, while Rong Jin stood up and cupped his hands.

When County Lord Hui Ning saw the people sitting in the room, she felt very angry in her heart. She walked in with big strides and looked at Xiao Yuqi and Yun Xiao. Her lips gently opened, and her words carried extreme coldness. “Get up, all of you. What are you whispering?”

Yun Xiao stood up and said respectfully, “We are just looking at the pharmacy opposite us. Such a grand occasion is truly unheard of, so we have some curiosity.”

County princess Hui Ning’s lips curled up slightly, and a hint of mockery appeared in her eyes. “Yes, I also heard the news and rushed over to take a look. I heard that this Snow Rong Pill is much more effective than the Beauty Nurturing Pill, so I came to take a look.”

She secretly snorted coldly in her heart. This Snow Rong Pill was something from her previous life. It definitely wasn’t something that appeared right now. Was it Yun Xiao’s doing or Xiao Yuqi’s doing?

Of course, she believed that this was Xiao Yuqi’s doing. This was because Xiao Yuqi had made this Snow Rong Pill in her previous life. Although it was a bit earlier than in her previous life, perhaps it was because she had stolen her idea to make those melon and fruit drinks that Xiao Yuqi had made her move ahead of time.

Moreover, she had sent someone to carry Xiao Yuqi and said that someone had sent Xiao Yuqi a dividend. If it wasn’t for the prescription she had come up with, how could there be a dividend?

Although she also wanted the prescription for the Snow Rong Pill, she was only a heir’s wife in her previous life. Naturally, she did not know the proportions of the ingredients in the prescription. Although Yun Xiao was also the Empress in her previous life, she did not know what the ingredients of this prescription were. This was the product that County Lord Hui Ning truly believed to be Xiao Yuqi’s.

County Lord Hui Ning waved his hand and saw a few maids carrying food boxes as they walked in. They immediately took out all the snacks inside. “Since you are all here, why don’t you try my newly made food? Fourth Young Lady’s cooking skills are so good, so you can just give me some pointers.”

Although Yun Xiao did not like County Lord Hui Ning, she had no intention of not accepting the call when others came to her door. “Alright, it’s just that the County Lord’s body, County Lord, is it alright?”

County Lord Hui Ning’s face stiffened slightly, but it only took an instant for it to return to normal. “Fourth Young Lady, be careful. My body is fine now.” Her Feng Han wasn’t completely fine, it was just that she didn’t want her opponent to know about it.

“Last time, I was worried about the county princess’ body. Since the county princess said so, I’m relieved.” Yun Xiao’s eyes fell on the fresh food on the table with a slightly surprised expression. She pointed at one of the snacks and said, “This is an egg tart. Fourth Miss, try it first.”

When she saw that Yun Xiao really seemed to be the first time she saw her, the corner of her mouth hooked up gently, and her heart that she was holding also fell to the ground.

County princess Hui Ning looked at Xiao Yuqi, who was standing beside her. “Miss Xiao, what’s wrong? Do you want to try it?”

Xiao Yuqi finally regained her senses. She tightly clenched her hands together and chuckled, “This dessert is too exquisite. Just looking at it like this is enough to satisfy her.”

County princess Hui Ning naturally took Xiao Yuqi’s reaction to heart. She was even more convinced that Xiao Yuqi was really acting. The corner of her mouth curled into a smile, “If Miss Xiao likes it, then let’s try it and see if it tastes authentic.”

When Yun Xiao heard the last sentence, the corner of her eyes lifted slightly. She invisibly shifted her gaze to Xiao Yuqi and said, “Sister Xiao, hurry up and taste it.”

“Ruo Ruo, come and have a taste. The county princess is so talented that I don’t dare to compliment her.”

Rong Ruo finished eating an egg tart. Although it was a bit strange, it felt very good. He pointed at the food on a plate and immediately rolled it up into small rolls. He thought it was very strange, “County princess, what is this?”

County princess Huining chuckled, “This is the Keli Scroll.”

Xiao Yuqi looked at county princess Hui Ning and Yun Xiao, a strange look appearing in the depths of her eyes. Why did all these modern things appear in the ancient times at the same time? Something’s wrong with what she thinks.

She took a light bite from an egg tart. The taste was not bad, but it was a little lacking. She chuckled softly, “County princess, your idea is really wonderful. I’m ashamed of being inferior to you.”

County Lord Hui Ning asked someone to bring out some more pudding. “Try this pudding first. I think it tastes good.”

The others gave it a try and praised the county princess of Hui Ning a few more times.

Rong Jin had always looked at each other coldly. He always felt that the atmosphere had completely changed since Xiao Yuqi and county princess Hui Ning came in. He was a little impatient, but he still didn’t say anything.

She leisurely admired Yun Xiao on the side. According to her understanding of Yun Xiao these past few days, she was definitely not such a charming person. Today’s matter seemed to be even more interesting.

He was like an outsider. Watching the three women acting in front of him, he didn’t expect that even the quiet Xiao Yuqi was surprising.

County Lord Hui Ning said, “Today, I came to thank the fourth young miss. If not for the fourth young miss saving me, I’m afraid the third prince would have lost his life. Unfortunately, the third prince still hasn’t woken up yet.”

A trace of mockery flashed across Yun Xiao’s low eyebrows. She already knew what county prince Hui Ning meant. The corner of her mouth curled up slightly, “It’s all my fault. I’ll go to the manor. If I bring a doctor with good medical skills, it won’t delay the Third Prince’s treatment.”

She wished that Zhou Jingyan could sleep for a long time, but she also knew the truth about the calamity that had left behind a thousand years.

Moreover, this was originally a trap set by Zhou Jingyan, so he could naturally escape death.

“I can’t blame Fourth Young Lady for that. If Fourth Young Lady hadn’t treated him in time, I’m afraid the Third Prince would have died.”

Yun Xiao chuckled and skillfully changed the topic. “However, this matter is already a blessing in disguise. His Highness the Crown Prince was assassinated and returned alive. The Fifth Prince must be fine now. Although the Third Prince is seriously injured, it is not impossible to save him.”

This was called lifting a rock and smashing it on his own feet. He had set up a trap to turn him in. He didn’t know if Zhou Jingyan would be angry when he woke up to know that Zhou Jingchen was still alive.

County prince Huining was also very angry when he heard this. The previous crown prince had clearly passed away during this assassination, but he did not expect that he was still alive this time. What was the problem?

He was the only one who told Zhou Jingyan about the Crown Prince’s accident. Could it be that Zhou Jingyan really saved the Crown Prince? However, it shouldn’t be. Since Zhou Jingyan wanted to compete for that position, he naturally wanted Zhou Jingchen to die.

If this assassination was really related to Zhou Jingyan, would Zhou Jingyan think that he was the one who leaked the secret by telling him that he was smart?

She couldn’t understand the situation any more, and the water seemed to be getting more and more muddy, as if an invisible hand was controlling all of this.

‘”That’s right, Fourth Young Lady is right. Everyone is fine. However, the Crown Prince’s assassination this time is due to the Crown Prince’s wit, but it has also angered His Majesty. Now that His Majesty has killed many people, Fourth Young Lady, do you want to go take a look?”

Yun Xiao’s face turned slightly pale. “That’s too scary. I won’t go.”

County princess Hui Ning suddenly looked at Xiao Yuqi and whispered, “Miss Xiao, do you want to go take a look?”

Xiao Yuqi hurriedly shook her head. She still did not understand these things, so she naturally could not be a bird in the head. Moreover, there was a woman in the Duke Xiao’s Mansion that she had to deal with by herself.

County princess Hui Ning sighed softly. “This time, His Majesty is furious. He killed many people. I feel that he has wronged many people.”

Rong Jin, who had been silent for a long time, finally said, “We are all grass-roots people. It is not appropriate to discuss political affairs. His Majesty is wise and decisive. He will definitely not injure good people or punish bad people.”

The people the emperor killed were all trusted aides of the Fifth Prince and the people planted by the Third Prince. As for whether they were real or not, no one cared.

The emperor was also telling the world that he was protecting Crown Prince Zhou Jingchen.

Yun Xiao also thought of this point, but she only smiled lightly. She wanted to see what else County Lord Hui Ning could do.

A man like Zhou Jingyan was someone he disdained to associate with. Huining County was mainly willing to take it, so he would only be happy.

After county princess Hui Ning left, Xiao Yuqi said with a pale face, “I didn’t expect county princess Hui Ning to be so open-minded. Not to mention caring about politics, she was able to research so many novel foods.”

Yun Xiao immediately echoed, “Yes, county princess Hui Ning is really rare.”

No matter what, he was unwilling to be the one to stand out.

With the matter of county princess Hui Ning, Yunxiao had no other interest and was about to leave. Seeing this, Xiao Yuqi also left with her.

The two of them went out of the Heart Seeking Restaurant together and said goodbye to each other. Yun Xiao wanted to get into the carriage, but Chun Lan, who had been following behind her, cried out in alarm, “Miss, isn’t that cousin girl Yu Tan?”

Yun Xiao followed Chun Lan’s hand and looked over. Sure enough, she saw that there was indeed a woman in the queue of long dragons outside the pharmacy opposite her. She made people feel that she was a little familiar. She really was Yu Tan.

Thinking about it, Lan Shuya, who cared for her appearance, naturally had to take care of her skin. If she lost her appearance, she would have no hope of climbing the dragon and adhering to the phoenix.

However, Yun Xiao hated Lan Shuya the most in her life because of her appearance. If she hadn’t used her appearance to win Zhou Jingyan’s favor and finally retaliate against her, she wouldn’t have ended up like that.

She whispered a few words in front of Chun Lan before getting into the carriage. Chun Lan walked towards the people who were queuing up there.
