No one is a fool. Although Princess Xianning has been away from the capital for a long time and has been raised in her grandmother's home, she also knows the strangeness of this conflict and is already a little angry.
Fang Yuanyuan hurriedly turned around and winked at Xianning County Lady, squeezed Xianning County Lady's hand, and whispered, "Don't be afraid, sister. I will make them give an explanation!"
With a frown on his face and a pair of eyes raised like an actor on stage, he raised his voice and couldn't help but sneer when he saw Su Yao coming over: "No wonder this brat is so reckless and uneducated, it turns out that he has someone backing him up!"
Su Yao lowered his eyebrows and stepped forward to block Shen Jiayan behind him. He first glanced at Xianning County Lady, then looked at Fang Yuanyuan who had been talking nonstop, and asked slowly, "I wonder if my brother has offended me in any way?"
Ruan Xiaojiu was sweating profusely. She wiped the sweat off her forehead and whispered, "Miss, be careful. I think some people are here with bad intentions."
Shen Jiayan felt very aggrieved. He pursed his lips as if there was something stuck in his throat, but ultimately remained silent.
Fang Yuanyuan snorted coldly: "What's the offense? We were just walking peacefully, and he rushed out recklessly. Look what he did to my sister?! Do you know who my sister is?!"
There were already quite a few people watching the excitement around, and they all just stood there watching, making excuses - after all, everyone likes to watch the excitement, and there's no one who doesn't like it.
The window of a private room on the second floor facing the lobby was half open. Xu Huixian sat opposite Master Xu. With a sneer on her face, she held a cup and said mockingly, "I want to see if Su Yao can be as tough against the princess's granddaughter."
If he remains as stubborn as before, Su Yao will definitely offend Princess Yongning.
Princess Yongning was indeed a bit cowardly as a princess, but she treated her granddaughter as if she were the apple of her eye. How could she allow anyone to offend her
And if Su Yao gave in.
This means that Su Yao is also a snob who treats people differently based on their social status. His so-called fearlessness of power is simply because the power is not strong enough.
Young Master Xu didn't care much about the tricks of these girls. He said coldly, "You are the only one who is impatient. You still have to make trouble like this. If it were up to me, why not treat them the same way you treated the other girls? How can she still have face in the capital by then?"
Xu Huixian's face was cold, and her eyes were full of hatred: "What's the point of just driving her out of the capital? She didn't grow up in the capital to begin with. For a country bumpkin like her, it doesn't matter where she goes."
Since Su Yao wanted to gain a foothold in the capital, she wanted to make Su Yao lose face and retreat back into her shell.
Young Master Xu didn't quite agree, but he doted on his sister after all, so seeing that she insisted on doing so, he just grabbed a handful of melon seeds and watched the fun.
But before Fang Yuanyuan could make another attempt to stir up trouble, Xianning County Lady had already grabbed her and said calmly, "I was the one who hit you. I'm not even angry yet, but you are the one who got angry first."
Fang Yuanyuan knew that her elder sister had been spoiled and had never known the dangers of the world. She also had a mild temper, so she didn't take it seriously. She just said perfunctorily, "You don't know that you can't indulge this kind of person's temper!"
"What kind of person?" The Princess of Xianning County raised the corner of her mouth slightly and looked at her seriously.
Fang Yuanyuan finally noticed that her expression was not right, and immediately changed the subject: "It's just..."
"It's just a trivial matter, but you are so persistent. If I didn't know you are my biological sister and couldn't hurt me, I would have suspected that you were deliberately provoking me." Xianning County Lady smiled and said something that left Fang Yuanyuan speechless. She turned her head and looked at Su Yao deeply: "Fourth Miss Su, I'm really sorry, it's nothing, but I frightened your brother, and I should apologize to you."
After she finished speaking, she looked at the surprised Shen Jiayan and smiled: "I'm sorry, I didn't stop my sister just now, and you suffered an unjust fate."
Shen Jiayan was originally full of grievances, but seeing that others said so, he didn't care and shook his head shyly.
Xianning County Lady turned to look at Su Yao again and said, "Miss Su, today's incident was a misunderstanding. I will treat you to tea and make amends when I get back."
The person who could wear floating brocade and was deliberately led here to plot against Shen Jiayan must be of extraordinary identity. Su Yao looked at her knowingly and returned the greeting. He did not ask any further questions or delve into the details. He only glanced at Fang Yuanyuan's face beside her and then withdrew his gaze. He nodded softly and said goodbye with Shen Jiayan.
Fang Yuanyuan didn't expect the Xianning County Lady to be so disrespectful to her. Her face turned pale and then blue again: "What do you mean, sister? I'm just standing up for you..."
The Lady of Xianning County smiled, glanced upstairs thoughtfully, and said without comment: "Yes, it's a tacit understanding among everyone." At the same time, she ordered her servants to prepare the car to return to the Princess's Mansion.
Fang Yuanyuan suddenly became a little anxious. She subconsciously glanced upstairs and reached out to grab her sleeve: "Xianning! What are you doing? Xian'er is still waiting for us upstairs."
Xianning County Lady turned around and looked at her seriously. Without hesitation, she stretched out her hand and brushed her away: "Now that things have become like this, do you still have the heart to see me?"
Fang Yuanyuan's thoughts were touched and her face turned pale and blue.
Xu Huixian upstairs also suddenly grasped the cup in her hand with a look of anger.
The Xianning County Lady had already strode out without telling anyone to wait for Fang Yuanyuan. She said coldly, "Let's go back to the Princess's Mansion."
The servants did not dare to disobey and hurriedly surrounded the carriage and left. Only Fang Yuanyuan's own maids and two servants of the Fang family were left. They came in at a loss and asked Fang Yuanyuan what to do.
Fang Yuanyuan was shocked and angry. Her hands and feet were cold and her head was dizzy. It took her a long time to react and she went upstairs without looking back.
But as soon as she opened the door of the private room, she saw Xu Huixian coldly getting up to leave. She panicked again and lowered her voice, pretending to be humble and forced a smile as she spoke: "Xian'er..."
Xu Huixian turned a deaf ear to her, gave her a cold look, and was about to leave first. Young Master Xu naturally followed.
Fang Yuanyuan was so anxious that she didn't know what to do. She hurriedly stepped forward and pulled her hand to explain: "Xian'er, I really tried my best. I don't know what's wrong with Xianning. She didn't listen to me at all..."
She was also very angry, and she was too weak to be bullied. She instigated like this, but the Xianning County Lady was not angry at all. She was like a faceless person. Fang Yuanyuan pursed her lips and tears fell down: "Don't be angry with me."
Xu Huixian brushed her away impatiently, frowning and extremely cold: "What are you talking about? When have I ever been angry with you? Why should I be angry with you? You have never offended me."
