This time, Xiao Baoxin’s trip to the palace was a surprise but not a danger. It could be considered a safe pass at low altitude.
However, Xiao Jing ‘ai still had a lingering fear. She still remembered the look that Xin’ an King gave her.
She thought that Princess Xuancheng had dug a pit for Xiao Baoxin. Before she could finish watching the show, there were several twists and turns. Xiao Baoxin was safe and sound, but she was trapped in the pit.
After all, she had lived two lifetimes and was a person of fifty years. She could tell that the Xin ‘an King was winking at her.
He was just a brat who was still wet behind the ears. He could not even protect his own life. If he went crazy and really took a fancy to her, not only would she be a nanny, but she would also be buried with others. She did not live her life to play with little wimps.
It was clearly Xiao Baoxin who had provoked the princess of Xuancheng. She was just a foil. In the end, Xiao Baoxin was fine, but he had caused her a lot of embarrassment.
The two sisters took a car back to the residence. The more Xiao Jing ‘ai looked at Xiao Baoxin, the more annoyed she became. Xiao Baoxin’s reputation had been ruined by her own actions. No one would come to visit him for a while. Even if the Palace was not picky, they would probably silently give up on inquiring about the reputation of the Eldest Lady of the Xiao family.
However, she was different. She had just obtained the title of Xingping County Head and had a good reputation. Moreover, she was at the age of marriage. She was not afraid that no one would come to her door to propose marriage.
She was only worried that Madam Xiao and her own father would be waiting for the right price. She felt that the conditions were not bad in all aspects, so she directly agreed.
What should she do? She was going to marry Yang Shao’s girl, no one could stop her.
“.. Sister is so likable, even the Imperial Concubine likes you so much.”Xiao Jing ‘ai smiled.” If it wasn’t for Princess Xuancheng’s outspokenness, I’m afraid that my sister’s marriage would have been decided by the Imperial Consort today.””
“Actually, this is a good thing. The Yuan family was not doing things properly. Yuan Chen had done such a ridiculous thing. Everyone knew that Elder Sister was innocent. However, the world did not mean what they said. They casually spread rumors and ruined Elder Sister’s reputation.”
“Xin An Wang is the most favored by the emperor. If she marries Xin An Wang as a princess, with the royal family around, no one will dare to say anything bad about sister. Who wouldn’t look up to their sister and greet her?”
Xiao Jing ‘ai was in a bad mood and did not intend to let Xiao Baoxin have a good time. She acted as if nothing had happened and deliberately wanted to disgust him.
Xiao Baoxin raised his eyebrows. Oh, it was already the greatest kindness to the world that she did not take the initiative to provoke others. However, there was someone who was blind and took the initiative to provoke her. If she did not greet him, it would seem impolite of her.
“Second Mother’s words are too funny. Xin An Wang is clearly interested in you. The emperor has already allowed Xin An Wang to choose his own wangfei. He was granted the title of princess and the emperor’s marriage with him.”
Xiao Jing ‘ai wanted to disgust others, but she was disgusted instead. It was as if she had eaten a fly, and her face could not hold it in anymore.
She had forgotten that her mouth was no softer than a fist.
Who knew that this was not the end. Xiao Baoxin continued with a smile that was not a smile,
“Your reputation isn’t any better than mine. No matter what, I took the initiative to break off the engagement. However, your engagement was broken off. No matter how nicely you put it, your reputation of contradicting your future in-laws has spread. The so-called sisterhood is none of your business. People say it nicely, but if you really want to marry her, you have to think twice.”
“Xin ‘an King is different. Xin’ an King is extremely favored. If Second Mother really gets Xin ‘an King’s favor, then just as Second Mother said, with the Imperial Family around, no one will dare to say anything bad about you.”
Xiao Baoxin returned her words.
“As for me, you don’t have to worry about me. Isn’t there Yang Shao who came to propose marriage? If 1 really can’t pick a good one, 1 can only choose him.” Didn’t you miss Yang Shao so much? Why did you bring him out?
In terms of disgust, who had she ever admired?
“Sister!” Xiao Jing ‘ai’s face turned purple, and her eyes widened.
“You… Don’t talk nonsense about the royal family. If word gets out, our Xiao family’s mistresses will be so arrogant that they don’t even put the royal family in their eyes. Xin ‘an Wang is not yet the age of the dance spoon, and is still young. If the emperor hears it, he will think that his sister is deliberately disrespectful and actually makes fun of the royal family.”
Xiao Baoxin nodded repeatedly.
“What Second Mother said is good. This is also what 1 wanted to warn you about. You are now the county head of Xing Ping County. Let’s not talk about how you obtained this position. After all, you have obtained the recognition of the royal family. You must not lose the face of our Xiao family and have a reputation of slandering the royal family.”
Xiao Jing ‘ai had lived for more than fifty years. In her previous life, she had been suppressed by Xiao Baoxin, but she had never been this angry with her.
What twisting black and white, what hiding a knife behind a smile, Xiao Baoxin had already cultivated to become a spirit at such a young age. In her previous life, she still put on airs and showed mercy in order not to damage her virtuous reputation!
Say, if she met such a fellow, she would not be able to beat him up or persuade him. If she did, she might even get beaten up. What could she do?
Xiao Jing ‘ai hung up the exemption card.
Ten years in the east, ten years in the west. She did not believe that Xiao Baoxin could be arrogant for his entire life. The one who had the last laugh was the winner!
On the way back to the mansion, the carriage finally quieted down. It was not until they crossed the Qingxi Bridge and reached the Xiao Mansion that Xiao Jing ‘ai could not help but ask,
“Why do you hate me so much? In the past, you and I were clearly very close, not worse than biological sisters.”
“Yeah, how did it become like this today?”Xiao Baoxin was all smiles, and his pink cheeks made Xiao Jing ‘ai’s eyes turn red.
“Maybe it’s because 1 simply can’t stand you, who clearly has an engagement, but still stubbornly prays for Yang Shao. Some people just can’t be missed.”
Xiao Baoxin knew that Xiao Jing ‘ai wanted to test her, but he couldn’t tell if they were the same.
Since he knew her purpose, how could he let her get what she wanted?
You can think whatever you want.
As expected, Xiao Jing ’ai’s expression changed, and she was even more uncertain of Xiao Baoxin’s meaning.
This time, the two of them were really quiet. Even when they returned to the residence, they went their separate ways without saying a word.
After returning to her own courtyard, Mu Jin went up to her and told her that Xiao Baoshu had come two or three times and insisted on seeing Xiao Baoxin.
So urgent…
It was true that she and Xiao Baoshu were siblings, but as they grew older, the two of them rarely got together, not to mention that he was rarely in the residence when he was running around. Now that he was looking for her anxiously, she could roughly guess what was going on.
“He is not in a hurry, Cai Wei.” Xiao Baoxin instructed Cai Wei in a low voice,”Keep a close eye on Second Lady’s courtyard these few days. As long as she makes any movements, come and inform me immediately..””
