Chapter 41 It’s you

The schemes played by the Third Young Mistress and Mrs. Zhao did not make Qu Fulan uneasy.

But the possibility of meeting Xiao Shiqing's mother and sister made her unable to calm down.

In her opinion, meeting anyone is better than meeting the Xiao family.

Because if it were someone else, she could have deceived her by refusing to admit it.

Most ladies in ancient times never left the house, and not many people had seen her. Even if they had seen her once or twice, they might have forgotten her.

But the Xiao family and the Li family used to be family friends, and the two families were still adjacent to each other. At that time, the Xiao family was not as powerful as it is now, and it had not yet moved to the capital city.

The original owner Li Jirou often visited the Xiao family when she was young, and the childhood sweethearts with Xiao Shiqing began from that time.

It can be said that Mrs. Xiao has watched Li Jirou grow up. Even if something happened to the Li family later, how long has it been now? How could she not recognize her?

The look in their eyes just now said it all.

Miss Xiao was called away by Miss Zheng, and her eyes fell on her before leaving.

Here, Mrs. Zhao had already started to grab Qu Fulan's hand and praise her. She praised her from beginning to end, and asked her about her age. She learned that she was only thirteen years old. Unlike others who thought she was young, Mrs. Zhao's eyes were wide open.

All lit up.

"No wonder it's so tender that water can leak out. Good, good."

The people next to me heard it and laughed secretly in their hearts.

What's good?

Naturally, it is a good gift for her husband. Mr. Zhao is very old and has been harming some little girls who have not yet had hairpins all day long. He is very wicked.

It’s just that girls from wealthy families don’t have to worry about being harmed by Mr. Zhao, but what does it have to do with those low-status slaves being harmed?

Qu Fulan endured Mrs. Zhao's greasy smile and the feeling of her constantly touching her hand, which was really disgusting.

She was really afraid that she wouldn't be able to bear it for a while and would vomit on the spot.

But he said that the men's table also heard about Mrs. Zhao's "feat".

Some young men made it a joke.

"I don't know which girl has suffered another disaster. That old man Zhao Bushu doesn't know how to restrain himself even at his age. He is even more impatient than us."

The Zhao family has a great background, but these are all the merits left by their ancestors. Up to now, they can only be regarded as dead and alive. Therefore, these truly rich young masters are not afraid of him, and even gave him the nickname "Zhao" behind his back.

Immortal".

"But don't tell me yet. Although Zhao Busheng is incompetent, he has a very high standard in selecting women. If you have seen the ones in his house, you will know. I can't help but wonder where he found them. Why did I

Can’t find it?”

"Look at what you said, is it possible that all the women in his back house are in shame?"

"More than Chen Yuluoyan? They are stuffing one into another. Didn't I say that there are girls among the female family members who are favored by Mrs. Zhao? Those who can be favored by Mrs. Zhao may be even more stunning than those in the Zhao Mansion. Otherwise, why would Mrs. Zhao be interested in them?

?”

"It makes my heart itch. I really want to meet that girl."

"What's the problem? Just call someone over."

This matter is left to the Master of the Zheng family to handle. As the head of the family, it is not difficult to hire someone.

At this time, everyone was sitting in the long pavilion of the waterside pavilion, admiring flowers and listening to music. The breeze blew and the lake surface sparkled.

Prince Pei and his friends were sitting in another independent pavilion far away, and did not participate in the conversation of those dandy brothers.

The man sitting opposite Prince Pei is An Ruchang, the son of Prince Anyang.

This is a passionate man who wants to be loyal to the emperor and serve the country. Unfortunately, his family is very dissatisfied with his abilities and cannot control him, so they have to leave him to Prince Pei.

But as for Qu Fulan, the third young lady left her to Mrs. Zhao and went to other places to play, but Mrs. Zhao continued to talk to her, and finally someone came to pay her respects.

"I've met Mrs. Zhao. My mother is nagging me about wanting to see you. How about I guide you?"

How could Mrs. Zhao refuse? She asked Haitang to wait for her and then left. No one on the left or right could escape.

When Mr. Zheng took Mrs. Zhao away, he quietly winked at the young man behind him, and the young man took her away.

Qu Fulan felt like a ball being kicked here and there.

But she didn't let herself become desperate and decadent.

If she doesn't have space, she may be a lot more desperate, but with space, self-preservation is no problem most of the time.

Maybe God also knew that she was thrown into such a dynasty with a lowly status as a maid, so he had to give her some space to survive.

As for the quarrel between the Third Young Mistress and Mrs. Zhao, Qu Fulan didn't take it seriously.

There are always some people who like to be a clown, so let her be.

There are always too many self-righteous people in the world, and everyone can't care enough to care about them.

I asked the boy where he wanted to take her, and he just told her where she was going.

As a result, when they arrived at a certain place, they left her alone.

Qu Fulan glanced over and saw that the pavilion on the water was full of male guests, and all of them looked at her with strange and startling eyes, but her eyes suddenly fell on something.

Then with a look of surprise, she headed in that direction.

"Haitang pays his respects to the Crown Prince."

Pei Jian stopped pouring the wine and couldn't hide the surprise in his eyes.

"It's you."

"The third young lady and the old lady asked for a servant to come over. Someone summoned me just now. Do you think the prince called me over to give you something?"

Pei Ji'an looked at the pavilion not far away from Zhu. The strange or surprised looks of those men, and the remarks that he had deliberately ignored before, all came to his mind at this time.

"I need to see you for something, please sit down."

"This... I'm afraid it's against the rules."

Prince Pei glanced at her lightly, feeling a chill in his face despite the intense summer heat. Qu Fulan sat down immediately.

As soon as they sat down, the male guests not far away couldn't sit still. At this time, they didn't dare to speak loudly. They started to discuss among themselves in groups of three or three.

"What's going on? Why did you go to Prince Pei? She looks like a maid of the Pei family?"

"How can you sit down if you are a maid?"

"Is it your responsibility to let Prince Pei sit down?"

After all, no one dares to make fun of this maid anymore.

Are you kidding? Beat the dog to see the owner, you understand?

"Brother Pei, this is..." An Ruchang admired Prince Pei very much, and he naturally respected him as a person.

"The maid Haitang beside the old lady."

"It turns out to be Miss Haitang. I'm doing well as usual."

Qu Fulan was about to stand up and salute, but the other party quickly waved his hand: "No, no, no, no, no, we are all our own people, no need to see outsiders."

Although the other party did not specify his identity, the identity of someone who could be friends with Prince Pei would naturally be extraordinary. In addition, Qu Fulan also knew this person and mentioned it in the book.

Although the son of Prince Anyang is also a real dandy, he is different from other dandies. He does not have the bad habit of tormenting his servants. At most, he is blindly confident.

To be more precise, he has no self-awareness.

The furthest place I've ever been to when I was this old was the autumn hunting paddock outside the capital city. After hunting a few prey, I thought I was a talent sent from heaven, capable of killing enemies in battle, and invincible.
