The next day, Xie Xun finished his breakfast and cleaned up, but there was still no movement in the east wing.

He had a sigh of "I expected it to be like this", and walked all the way to the door of the east wing, but there was no big maid in the yard.

Xie Xun walked to the door and wanted to cross the threshold, but hesitated for a while, but knocked on the door frame first.

"Xie Boyuan?" Jiang Shuyao shouted from inside.

"It's me." Xie Xun replied.

"Come here!" Her voice was surprised.

Xie Xun walked into the house. Along the way, he saw a large number of exquisite embroidered belts on the table, and dozens of pairs of exquisite embroidered shoes beside the screen. After going around the screen, he saw a chaise longue that was submerged in clothes.

The corners of his eyebrows twitched.

Going further inside, I saw Jiang Shuyao sitting in front of the dressing table.

The maids around were holding their breaths in unison, and the house was extremely quiet.

Xie Xun was puzzled, and was about to speak when Jiang Shuyao turned around suddenly, his words suddenly stuck in his throat.

Sunlight poured down from the carved window, making the pearls and hairpins on her dark clouded temples sparkle. The golden steps are adorned with fine tassels and sprinkle the swaying light and shadow on her face, the lips are thin, and the rouge is light, smudged all the way to the corners of the eyes, making the already agile eyes dyed with charming and charming, the eyes are full of spring water, look forward to Shenghui.

Xie Xun was in a trance for a moment, his eyes seemed to be burned, and he quickly moved away.

"Xie Boyuan, come here." She said, her tone was a little nasal because of her anxiety, like she was acting like a spoiled child.

Xie Xun's hand behind him clenched tightly, and walked towards her according to the words, but his eyes did not dare to fall on her Furong face again.

"The bronze mirror is not clear, can you help me paste the flower tin?" she said, "I asked them to help, but they were unwilling to do it."

Xie Xun listened to her complaint and understood why the maid was unwilling to help.

Jomo was afraid that her clumsy hands would ruin the delicate beauty between her brows.

He sighed in his heart, did not dare to refuse, and took Huadian.

Jiang Shuyao raised his head, and when he looked up, the end of his eyes rose, and the rouge-stained ends of his eyes and brows were a little more seductive and tactful.

Xie Xun shook his hand and almost missed Huadian.

It's a pity that the more nervous he is, the more tense his face is. He is cold and cold, and when he frowns and purses his lips, he looks more alienated and indifferent.

Seeing this, Jiang Shuyao was a little embarrassed: "Are you angry?"

Xie Xun said, "Huh?" and gave her a sticker with a trembling voice. The hand that can hold a pen and a knife on weekdays is almost unable to hold the fluffy gold leaf.

Jiang Shuyao raised his forehead obediently, and his eyes swept across his eyebrows. When he was concentrating, his face was cold and he looked a bit fierce, and she didn't dare to look closely.

"Did I bother you waiting, sorry," she said softly.

Xie Xun put the gold foil squarely on her forehead, and his voice was tight: "No."

Jiang Shuyao thought to himself, sure enough, he was getting angry, hey.

"And when I touched it yesterday, I was the one who offended me. I'm sorry." The relationship between the two is getting closer. Jiang Shuyao looked at him as if he was looking at an old-fashioned and stinking younger brother of a schoolboy next door. He forgot about men and women's defense. jumped out.

Fortunately, Hua Dian was already pasted, otherwise Xie Xun would have shaken his hand and slanted to the horizon.

This time he didn't answer. He handed the thing to the maid, turned away with a cold face and turned away without saying a word.

Jiang Shuyao frowned: "What should I do, I seem very angry."

The beauty frowned, and even the maids felt distressed, so they hurriedly comforted.

Xie Pei arrived in front of the main room and saw that Jiang Shuyao hadn't arrived yet, and complained, "Why is it so delayed, she is the only one left—"

Before he finished speaking, he saw Jiang Shuyao hurried over with a skirt.

In front of the eyes is a gorgeous red, like fire like hibiscus. Jiang Shuyao has a hairpin and a pearl on her head, which is obviously full of tacky gold ornaments, but it is not gaudy at all, only rich and noble.

Even so, the most eye-catching face on the whole body is the face that is as bright as Chunhua, and the golden hairpins in Chinese clothes are instantly reduced to a foil.

Xie Pei suddenly thought of Concubine Lin Guifei at the Winter Night Palace Banquet, with a cloud pile of green buns, graceful and graceful, Huarong and graceful, sitting on the side of the emperor, she was really called a six-gong pink and colorless, she was obviously a beauty with unparalleled beauty, but Makes people dare not look closely.

Xie Pei's heart seemed to be pinched.

She hurriedly glanced at her third brother, saw that his face was as cold as before, she breathed a sigh of relief, and said, her third brother is not someone who will be tempted by beauty.

Everyone went to the princess' mansion, and Jiang Shuyao and Xie Pei Xu were in the same car.

Seeing her, Mrs. Xu was stunned for a moment, and then complimented a few words without any hesitation.

Hearing a few compliments, Xie Pei's ears were itchy, and he glanced at Jiang Shuyao's face again. Seeing that she raised her eyes slightly to look over, her heart trembled and she quickly avoided it.

She squeezed the cloth under her body tightly, squeezing the satin seat into a wrinkle.

what happened? !

Xie Pei gritted her teeth and thought, she was born so vulgar and mean before, but she has become so rich and beautiful in just a short period of time.

She thought of how Jiang Shuyao was dressed in the past, and compared it to now, she vaguely understood, but she was also a little confused. If she was dressed like this, how would she be laughed at by those noble ladies.

Although the front of the Princess Mansion is spacious and atmospheric, it is still crowded with carriages coming to the mansion.

The sun came up, and it was irritating to dry, and everyone was a little anxious. The powerful family had long recognized the carriage and served them, while those with lower official positions could only wait.

Lin Cheng got off the carriage and happened to see Xie Xun who had just got off the carriage not far away.

He walked through the crowd and the carriage and came to Xie Xun to say hello.

The last time I went to his house for a meal, Lin Cheng asked the cook to try the duck blood vermicelli soup when he came back. I don't know how many ducks were killed to get blood.

He had heard about the bad things about the eldest lady of the Bofu family in Xiangyang, and he had seen her mean face, but because of a bowl of duck blood vermicelli soup, he was very optimistic about her now, and he wished she and Xie Xun would forget about the past grievances, Husband and wife love forever.

The coachman bowed to the horse bench in front of the carriage, the maid opened the curtain of the carriage, the bead hairpin sounded softly, and Lin Cheng subconsciously turned his head to look.

The sun was dazzling, he didn't have time to avoid it, he stared at Jiang Shuyao blankly, even his heartbeat slowed for half a beat.

The fragrance is beautiful and the beauty is like a flower, and the hibiscus is not as good as the beauty makeup.

He lowered his eyes in a panic, pulled Xie Xun and whispered shyly and nervously, "Bo Yuan, the younger sister has grown up, and she is carrying the national beauty and heavenly fragrance."

Xie Xun squinted at him and said indifferently, "That's my wife, Mrs. Jiang."

Lin Cheng gasped, almost choking himself.

His mind was a mess, and it took a long while to hear Xie Xun's words clearly.

"how is this possible?!"

The same sentence sounded on the other side.

Miss Li tugged on Miss Song Er's sleeve and looked at Jiang Shuyao in disbelief.

"Impossible!" she said, "How could she be a different person in such a short period of time, obviously she was not as good as..." It's better to be born beautiful. This is why she cursed Jiang Da day and night, how could such an ugly and incompetent woman climb up to Xie Lang's star-like figure.

"I see that she has the same appearance as before. She changed her clothes, put on makeup, and her eyebrows have grown. It's normal to look like a different person."

"Hmph, it's just a pair of clothes and a bead hairpin." Fourth Miss Ling said, everyone was silent, although they knew in their hearts that it wasn't the reason, they still tried to deceive themselves.

Seeing Xie Pei approaching, he swarmed up and surrounded her, muttering bad things about Jiang Shuyao. After all, when Jiang Shuyao was about to get married, Xie Pei scolded the shameless and disreputable woman.

Xie Pei's face was not good, and everyone was overjoyed.

"A Pei, why are you looking so bad?"

"Isn't it irritated by Jiang?"

"Yeah, I'm also uncomfortable looking at her pretentiousness. Who should I show her wearing a bead hairpin? This is a banquet, not a look at each other." This is a bit heavy, but no one refuted it. .

Xie Pei raised his eyes and looked at the person who was speaking. The person thought that he was in Xie Pei's mind, and quickly added: "Even if you dress like this, it can only be called a common word, how can it be worthy of your brother's bright moon and clear air. the gentleman?"

The lady next to her chirped and said, "Yes, yes."

Xie Pei's face was not good, and his tone was even worse: "She's not worthy of—"

Everyone's faces were full of joy, Xie Pei was Xie Lang's sister, so scolding Jiang Da, presumably Xie Lang also treated Jiang Da...

As soon as he thought about it, he heard Xie Pei continue: "Are you worthy of it?"

Everyone was stunned, unable to believe what they heard.

Xie Pei swept around the faces of these people, and said to the person who had just agreed, "It's still up to you?"

Turning his head again, he glanced at the other person: "Or it's up to you?" She deliberately dressed up, but even Jiang Shuyao couldn't compare to the plain clothes of Jiang Shuyao.

Whether it was targeted by her, or standing beside her, everyone's face turned ashen, and their faces burned with panic.

Xie Pei's eyes just fell lightly on their faces, but they were like bright sunlight, illuminating all the dark and jealousy in their hearts.

Xie Pei was used to being rude and didn't care about their faces.

"Forget it, I see that in this capital, only she is worthy of my brother."

Finally someone couldn't bear it any longer: "Xie Pei! What do you mean by that, who can see her in the capital, we're just saying a few words, what about you?"

"Say a few words?" Xie Pei ignored their anger, "I don't care what you say in front of others, but if you say it in front of me, why can't I do it? Do I have to endure listening to the Xie family being bitten by others? ?"

She slammed her shoulders into the way, and walked away with a displeased face.

After she left, the people who were so angry just now finally dared to speak.

"What's so great, who do you show your face to?"

"Isn't it just relying on Xie Guogong's power, huh, does she dare to treat the eldest lady of Prime Minister Ge's family like this?"

As if seeing hope, everyone began to agree: "Yes, the number one talented woman in the capital is always worthy of Mr. Xie, right?"

"Moreover, Miss Ge is smart and out of the ordinary. She doesn't deserve to carry her shoes with a straw bag like Jiang Da!"

The carriage passed by, and Ge Qingshu, Miss Ge, who they were talking about, lifted the curtain of the car.

Even the tone of the mouth is light: "Ningdong, do you mean what they say?"

Ning Dong lowered his head and said respectfully, "Of course it is."
