The afternoon sun was warm. Tang Cheng was basking in the sun in the yard and teaching An An the little parrot to speak.
The sharp sounds of the little parrot kept ringing in the yard.
"Fool!"
"idiot!"
"Hahaha!"
"Help!"
The servants in the yard were speechless. The young lady actually taught the parrot to speak like this.
The four main maids served the young lady while watching her teasing the little parrot with great interest.
It’s true, this little parrot is particularly lively and smart in front of the young lady.
But it depends on the person.
When they were feeding the parrot, they teased it a little, but the little parrot was as quiet as a chicken. If you didn't know, you would have thought it was a mute parrot.
The four maids were very sad.
A maid came in and reported, "Miss, Miss Liu from the Jian'an Earl's Mansion wants to see you."
Tang Cheng said casually: "Miss Liu? I don't know her, I won't see her!"
Zhenzhu coughed and said, "Miss, Miss Liu is the handsome young man you met while shopping the day before yesterday!"
Tang Cheng immediately remembered what Zhenzhu said: "So it's her. Now that she's here, let's meet her."
"This Miss Liu is quite interesting!"
Pearl's eye twitched.
If you say something interesting, you will forget about it completely.
Liu Jintong and Yaohong, who were waiting outside the Nanyang Marquis' Mansion, stood beside the carriage, looking slender and graceful.
"Miss Liu, the fourth lady invites you into the mansion." A servant respectfully welcomed Liu Jintong and her servant into the Nanyang Marquis' Mansion.
Liu Jintong smiled and said, "Thank you!"
The master and servant followed the servant who led the way. The scenery of Nanyang Marquis' Mansion was quite nice. Along the way, apart from the servants coming and going, the masters of the mansion were rarely seen.
Liu Jintong lowered his eyes.
The atmosphere in Nanyang Marquis' Mansion is much better than the corrupt Jian'an Marquis' Mansion. Except for the fact that Nanyang Marquis doted on Tang Cheng, the brainless concubine, and was criticized by everyone, the backyard is quite harmonious!
Liu Jintong tried hard to suppress the jealousy and hatred surging in his heart.
Why is her father so scumbag, useless and incompetent!
Tang Xin had just returned to the courtyard from the main courtyard with Jinshu when he saw a strange and beautiful woman with a graceful figure from afar. From her clothes and accessories, he could tell that she was a noble lady. He couldn't help but frowned.
"Jinshu, let's take a detour and see who that lady is?"
After a while, Tang Xin brought Jinshu to meet the heroine Liu Jintong.
It was the first time that Tang Xin met Liu Jintong. She thought this noble lady was beautiful and had a good temperament, but she felt a little repulsed by her in her heart. She attributed it to a woman's jealousy.
However, Liu Jintong had met the third daughter of the Nanyang Marquis' Mansion in his previous life.
"I am the third young lady of the mansion. May I ask which family you are from?"
Tang Xin asked with a smile.
Liu Jintong smiled slightly: "My name is Liu Jintong, and I am the legitimate daughter of the Jian'an Earl's Mansion."
"What?"
"You are Liu Jintong, Miss Liu!"
Tang Xin exclaimed, her eyes full of shock. Realizing her own gaffe, she quickly explained, "Sorry, I was just too surprised. I've been hearing rumors about the Jian'an Earl's Mansion lately."
The heroine, oh my god, she actually met the cruel and ruthless reborn heroine in the book in the mansion.
Tang Xin was horrified, and her heart was filled with turmoil.
Who invited her here
Liu Jintong didn't care about Tang Xin's misconduct. Recently, the Jian'an Marquis' Mansion was indeed turned upside down by her, and rumors were flying everywhere, but it was still not as serious as what Tang Cheng had done. If it weren't for Tang Cheng's support, the family scandal of the Jian'an Marquis' Mansion would have become a hot topic in the capital long ago.
Unfortunately, it was always suppressed by Tang Cheng's endless rumors.
Liu Jintong was very dissatisfied with this, and she severely remembered Tang Cheng who had unintentionally ruined her plans, and would settle the score with him later.
She smiled helplessly at Tang Xin: "Nothing, there are a lot of rumors about the Jian'an Marquis's Mansion recently, and there is a lot of dirty water on me too!"
"Sorry, Miss Tang Si is still waiting for me. I'll go first."
"Ms. Liu, you... you are Fourth Sister's friend?"
Tang Xin was shocked again. After the previous plot collapsed, the heroine actually approached Tang Cheng in person.
When did they meet? Tang Xin almost collapsed.
Tang Cheng, this guy is looking for death!
Liu Jintong smiled and said with a double meaning, "For now, I think so."
It is indeed shocking to be friends with Tang Cheng, a spoiled, brainless and reputable celebrity in Beijing, but it is also very beneficial. Tang Cheng, this brainless person, is a sharp weapon for her to use for revenge.
It's good to be brainless, because such people are easier to exploit. You can reap the benefits with just a few words and then build up your reputation.
Liu Jintong decided to take advantage of Tang Cheng and then take revenge on her.
Tang Xin's mouth twitched, and she immediately understood the hidden meaning of Liu Jintong's words.
Tang Cheng is one of the cannon fodders for the heroine's revenge.
Be friends
Stop kidding!
Tang Xin quietly lit the candle for Tang Cheng, but foolishly let the wolf into the house.
This also gave Tang Xin a strong sense of urgency.
On the birthday of the old princess of Chengwang Mansion, she must get close to the Fourth Prince and quickly establish a relationship with him. She does not want to be dragged down by Nanyang Marquis Mansion in the future.
Now, it’s better to stay away from the heroine.
She didn't want to be cannon fodder for no reason.
Liu Jintong had no plans to get close to Tang Xin. Miss Tang San, the legitimate daughter of a third-rank official, had married the mediocre second son of Princess Cheng in her previous life, and was an invisible person in the upper circle.
Maybe it's the same in this life.
Her enemies are Tang Cheng and the Marquis of Nanyang who protects Tang Cheng.
Liu Jintong’s goal is clear.
Neither of them wanted to have any interaction, so they just said a few words and then left.
Tang Xin breathed a sigh of relief after she and Liu Jintong separated. A breeze blew and she found that her back was wet.
Tang Xin: “…”
It turns out that she is so afraid of the heroine subconsciously!
It's really embarrassing for time travelers.
Tang Xin was very upset.
About a quarter of an hour later, Liu Jintong and her maid Yaohong arrived at the gate of the Peony Garden. She looked up at the plaque hanging above. The three characters "Peony Garden" written in a flamboyant style were quite eye-catching.
Liu Jintong pursed her lips.
Needless to say, it must have been written by Marquis Nanyang.
She looked for a few seconds, then lowered her eyelids and followed the old woman who reported her in.
Tang Cheng was lazily leaning on the chaise longue in the yard, eating fresh strawberries. On the small table next to him were exquisite snacks and fruits.
At this time, Tang Cheng was eating strawberries and teasing a beautiful parrot with a bright and dazzling smile.
This leisurely and comfortable look hurt Liu Jintong's eyes.
After her rebirth, she has been constantly scheming and fighting in order to avenge her enemies. She has never had such a leisurely and comfortable time.
Her enemies lived comfortably.
Liu Jintong calmed down and walked over with her maid.
Tang Cheng saw a beautiful woman in a dazzling red silk dress coming over. He looked carefully at her delicate features and eyebrows and found that she had a bit more feminine charm than when she wore men's clothes. Tang Cheng was amazed.
"Tang Cheng, I'm sorry for coming to your house. I don't know if I disturbed you!"
Liu Jintong said with an embarrassed look on his face, and then asked Yaohong to present the gift she brought.
"No, I'm not a busy person. I'm not idle every day." Tang Cheng said lazily.
"Linglong, show Miss Liu a seat."
"Yes, Miss." Linglong agreed and took Liu Jintong to the rose chair next to the chaise longue, saying respectfully, "Miss Liu, please sit down."
Liu Jintong sat down and the maid Yaohong stood behind her.
Pearl served the tea and stepped aside.
Liu Jintong picked up the teacup, sniffed it imperceptibly, then took a sip, his eyes falling on the beautiful parrot in the cage.
"Tang Cheng, I heard that Prince Wen gave you a parrot. Is this the one? It's so beautiful!"
"Yes, An An is not only beautiful but also smart." Tang Cheng looked proud.
"An An, don't you think so?"
An An parrot flapped its wings happily and called out with its pointed white beak: "Beautiful, smart!"
"Come, An An, say hello to Miss Liu." Tang Cheng said excitedly.
I don’t know if An An the little parrot understood, but he shouted sharply at Liu Jintong.
"idiot!"
"Hahaha!"
The scene was silent for a moment.
Tang Cheng's mouth twitched.
"An An, shut up!"
"Miss Liu, this parrot has water in its brain. Don't bother with it."
Parrot has water in its brain...
The four maids were all frowning.
Liu Jintong almost vomited blood. She was actually scolded and laughed at by a flat-haired beast. A murderous look flashed in Liu Jintong's eyes, and she wished she could cut the little parrot into pieces on the spot.
"Master, help, someone is killing a bird!" The little parrot suddenly fluttered and turned its head and shouted sharply at Tang Cheng.
Tang Cheng: “…”
Is this parrot really that exaggerated
Cowardly parrot!
The four maids: "..."
Liu Jintong took a deep breath, forced a smile and said he didn't care, but in his heart he blamed Tang Cheng for this.
Trying hard to ignore the hateful parrot, Liu Jintong asked Tang Cheng tentatively: "Tang Cheng, people are saying outside that you went to the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion yesterday. Are you ready to accept Prince Wen again? When will you get engaged?"
Tang Cheng took a bite of the dessert and said casually, "No, I'm still considering it. I'm a popular person, so I have to compare prices first. Now Prince Wen is just one of the candidates for my husband, and the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo is too annoying."
An An the little parrot shouted to Tang Cheng: "Master, this is a delicious treat!"
Tang Cheng's eyes curved: "Look, the parrot knows that I'm popular, so smart."
The four maids wanted to laugh.
Liu Jintong sneered in his heart.
You believe what the flat-haired beast said. You are sick. You think a withered flower is popular? Compare prices from three stores!
Tang Cheng is so shameless!
In my heart, I wish Tang Cheng would continue to commit suicide.
Liu Jintong suddenly thought of something and felt a little alert.
"Tang Cheng, you don't still want to marry the Fourth Prince, do you?"
She is now determined to get the Fourth Prince, and this visit is because the Fourth Prince needs Tang Cheng's help. Of course, she doesn't want Tang Cheng to covet and entangle the Fourth Prince again.
This Fourth Miss Tang is very courageous. She had dared to drug the Fourth Prince before. If she had not acted secretly, Tang Cheng would have been in the Fourth Prince's backyard now.
We must be on guard.
Tang Cheng felt that Liu Jintong seemed to value the Fourth Prince very much, and looked at her with a smile: "If the Fourth Prince is willing to dismiss the women in the backyard, I will marry him!"
"it's out of the question!"
The smile on Liu Jintong's face froze. This idiot Tang Cheng really has no self-awareness at all.
Tang Cheng keenly caught the subtle expression on her face when she mentioned the Fourth Prince, and a hint of interest flashed in his eyes.
Her feeling was indeed correct.
"So I excluded the Fourth Prince."
"Of course, there are exceptions to everything. Who knows if the Fourth Prince will fall in love with me in the future? Therefore, I cannot be too sure and must leave room for it."
"I'm not showing off. The emperor wants to bring me together with the fourth prince. If it weren't for my conditions, the fourth prince would not be able to meet them. I would be his fiancée now."
"Miss Liu, you can't judge others by yourself. It's very difficult for you to marry the Fourth Prince with your conditions. Even if you can marry him, you will only be a concubine."
The four maids: "..."
Miss, this is just blatant showing off.
Liu Jintong's pretty face twisted slightly.
Weren’t you destined to be a concubine in your previous life
Unfortunately, she couldn't refute now. She finally brought the topic to the Fourth Prince. The day after tomorrow was the birthday of the old princess of Cheng Palace, and she needed to use Tang Cheng.
