Chapter 3 Show off

Early in the morning, Xu Wanyan sat in the yard, holding the book tightly in her hands, but she could not see a single word.

"Miss, are you too cold? I see you shivering."

Qiao Yun’s words made Xu Wanyan tremble suddenly. She had been back for so long, why couldn’t she control herself?

When she thought about meeting Xu Wanqing, she thought of the misery of her previous life and couldn't help but tremble all over.

No, she is no longer the Xu Wanyan who was played around with by others in her previous life.

Thinking of this, she took a deep breath, smiled and shook her head: "It's not cold, this place is just right to clear my mind and improve my eyesight."

Seeing her like this, Qiao Yun turned around and went back to pour hot tea.

"Sister, why are you sitting outside reading in such cold weather?"

When the voice came in, Xu Wanyan lowered her head, a sarcastic smile passing across her lips.

Xu Wanqing was still the same as in her previous life, dressed gorgeously with pearl hairpins on her head, afraid that others would not know that she was living a good life.

After a long while, she slowly raised her head and looked at the newcomer with a blank face, "You, you are..."

Xu Wanqing's originally happy and sweet smile suddenly froze. She probably didn't expect that Xu Wanyan didn't recognize her?

Seeing her young lady's uneasy expression, Qingping quickly said, "Second Miss, this is the eldest lady, your sister."

Hearing this, Xu Wanyan stood up in a panic, but accidentally dropped the book on the ground.

"Sister, you are so old now, why are you still so impulsive?" As she said that, Xu Wanqing picked up the book on the ground.

Seeing the title of the book, Xu Wanyan's eyes flashed with disdain and she put the book back.

"I didn't expect you to come. I'm sorry for being so rude. Please don't blame me." After saying that, Xu Wanyan bowed slightly.

Xu Wanqing originally wanted to hold her hand, but stopped mid-air. How could she salute so properly?

Xu Wanyan looked at her with a slightly frown on her face. Why couldn't she accept that she was even a little bit good?

Xu Wanyan pursed her lips and smiled, "Sister, what's wrong?"

Xu Wanqing hid the doubt in her eyes, took her hand, and said with a smile: "Sister, it's so cold, why are you still reading outside? By the way, can you read?"

Why hadn't she heard that Xu Wanyan could read?

Xu Wanyan said nothing and calmly pulled her hand out, "You can't read, but it's fun to watch."

Xu Wanqing was stunned for a moment, then sneered. Why was she acting like that?

My mother said that she was just like her deceased mother, and it was unpleasant to look at her.

It seems that it is true!

However, she had a purpose.

After the two entered the house, Qiao Yun quickly poured hot water for them.

Xu Wanqing looked at the water cup in her hand and screamed in surprise: "Sister, you, you usually drink this?"

"Miss, our young lady always drinks this."

Qiao Yun's tone was full of grievance.

"Qiao Yun, stop talking."

Xu Wanqing looked at Qiao Yun, then at Xu Wanyan, with heartache in her eyes, and took her hand again.

Xu Wanyan felt disgusted in her heart, but she didn't say it on her face.

"Sister, I've wronged you over the years. Tomorrow, I'll have someone send you some West Lake Longjing and Lu'an Guapi. If you don't like them, Yunnan Pu'er is also delicious."

Xu Wanyan smiled faintly: "Sister, I'm afraid I can't get used to it. This plain water is fine."

"How could that be? This plain water has no taste at all, it's too bland. I'll bring it to you tomorrow, I guarantee you'll like it."

"Thank you, sister."

"We are sisters, so please don't be polite."

Xu Wanyan didn't say anything. In her previous life, she came and left without saying a few words.

I’m afraid it’s the same in this life.

Sure enough, Xu Wanqing rubbed her arms with her hands, stood up, and complained: "Sister, it's really cold here."

Xu Wanyan nodded and looked at her, "Sister, could it be that Mother has forgotten me? Qiaoyun went to talk to her several times, but no charcoal was delivered."

"How, how could it be?"

Xu Wanqing was a little flustered. Why would this girl take the initiative to bring up the matter of charcoal?

Didn't she know about this before?

"I was worried that my mother was too busy and didn't take care of me."

"Yes, mother is just too busy. You know, such a huge Taishi Mansion is supported by mother alone, so it is inevitable that there are some things that are not done well. Please don't blame me, sister!"

Xu Wanyan shook her head, "No, I am considerate of my mother."

Xu Wanqing breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Mom has always told me that my sister has been sensible and considerate since she was a child. It turns out to be true."

"Thank you, mother."

The coldness in the room made Xu Wanqing unable to stay any longer, and her hands and feet began to tremble.

At this moment, she couldn't help but admire Xu Wanyan's ability to withstand the cold.

"Sister, I remember I have something else to do. I'll go back first. I'll come to see you another day and bring you some charcoal and tea."

"Thank you, sister."

After saying this, Xu Wanyan had no intention of getting up.

Xu Wanqing's face was filled with surprise, but it was too cold, so she fled away.

"Miss, the eldest lady has never been to our place."

Xu Wanyan smiled and said, "No one comes to visit you for no reason."

Qiao Yun looked at the footprints in the snow, "But she didn't say anything."

"When it's time to speak, she will speak."

Qiao Yun stopped talking and went to heat up the tea.

Xu Wanyan watched the snow falling heavier outside, and could already hear the rustling sound.

"Miss, it's snowing so heavily, I'm afraid tonight..."

Before Qiao Yun finished speaking, Xu Wanyan knew what she meant.

Xu Wanqing was so cold that she had to flee, let alone them, they were also afraid of the cold.

"Qiao Yun, get me a... Never mind, come with me to the front yard!"

Although her house was not completely empty, she had nothing to shelter herself from the wind and snow.

Xu Maocai and Zhao Yaru were so cruel, they clearly wanted to drag her to death.

However, they never expected that one day they would be counting on her to help them.

"Miss, what are you doing in the front yard?"

Qiao Yun didn't understand.

The young lady hasn't left Hengwuyuan for more than ten years. Why does she suddenly want to go to the front yard?

"If we don't get some charcoal, we're going to freeze to death here tonight."

In her previous life, the master and servant were so cold that they couldn't get out of bed for a long time. Because of this, when her period came, she often rolled around in bed.

In this life, since she knew that they had intentions towards her, she would take advantage of them.

"Okay, I'll go with you."

Xu Wanyan nodded. The moment she stepped through the gate of Hengwu Courtyard, she actually felt dizzy.

"Miss, are you okay?"

Xu Wanyan shook her head. "It's okay. I haven't been out for a long time. I'm not used to it for a while."

Qiao Yun nodded and went forward to support her.

"Hurry up, the snow is getting heavier."

By the time they arrived at Zhao Yaru's Jinhuayuan, all the footprints behind them had been covered by snow.

Seeing the snow water on the two men, the servants of Jinhua Garden were frightened.

"Second Miss, why are you here?"

When a little maid saw this, she ran to tell the lady.
