Chapter 645: Yun Ting was plotted

She knows Yao Huang and Wei Zi, and she also knows wheat and corn.

In Lu Qinniang's eyes, showing off gold and silver was one thing, but showing off these flowers and plants that could not be eaten or drunk?

She really couldn't understand.

No matter how valuable it sounded, she just felt that the other party was being taken advantage of - something that grew all over the mountains and plains, just to grow more neatly, did it cost so much money?

"Playing the lute to a cow." The third girl mumbled in a very low voice, almost in her throat.

It doesn’t matter if you look down on me in your heart, but if you dare to say it out loud, you’ll be poking a hole in Erya’s lungs!

"What did you say?" She sneered. "Miss San, if you have something to say, why not just say it out loud? What's the difference between mumbling something in your throat and those gossipy women?"

Madam He's expression suddenly changed, and she scolded her daughter harshly: "How dare you! Hurry up and apologize to Madam and the Second Miss!"

As I said, although they look down on others in their hearts, when they really want to turn against them, they will kneel down faster than anyone else.

The third girl looked reluctant, but still bowed and apologized.

Lu Qiniang said gently, "It's okay. I just want to tell the third lady that when you play the lute to a cow, it's the person who's sick, not the cow. What do you think?"

Arya laughed unrestrainedly.

She is worthy of being her mother.

Look at He San’s face, he looks so happy.

Lu Qiniang glanced at Erya.

Arya doesn't care at all.

There is no way, their family's status is to crush the prefect's family.

She can choose not to care, but if she moves a finger, she can make them behave themselves.

But even if you crush this kind of idiot, you won't feel any sense of accomplishment.

Madam He's face paled and sank as she forced a smile to smooth things over: "Oh, the child is ignorant. Madam and the second young lady, please be magnanimous! Quick, serve the dishes! Madam, please take a seat!"

Miss He San was filled with shame and anger. She covered her face, found an excuse and hurriedly retreated. Her suppressed sobs could still be heard faintly.

Erya looked at her from behind and deliberately raised her voice, "Hey, Third Miss, what's wrong with you? Your eyes are as red as a rabbit. Who bullied you? Tell me, and I'll seek justice for you!"

"No, no, it was the wind that blinded my eyes." Mrs. He said hurriedly.

"It's still drafty in the house," Erya said. "Madam, please have the house repaired when you have time to prevent your precious flowers from being damaged."

The smile on Mrs. He's face froze completely, and she felt extremely embarrassed.

The servants serving in the hall were even more silent, with their heads buried as low as possible, wishing they could shrink into the cracks of the ground, for fear of being taken out on by the emperor.

The atmosphere at the following banquet was as dull as chewing wax.

Everyone was very quiet and had no appetite.

Erya felt that the meal was boring.

——There is really no one who can fight.

However, out of boredom, she discovered that the fourth daughter of the He family was always secretly looking at her.

But every time Erya looked back, she lowered her head like a frightened mouse.

Erya knew at first sight that she was a concubine's daughter.

Just staring at her for what?

Although she is a firecracker, she won't explode unless you provoke her.

baffling.

After a while, Miss He Si stood up, quietly said goodbye and went to change her clothes.

Erya didn't take it to heart and continued to sit there as steady as a rock.

——None of these people can fight. They have to look at her mood, not the other way around, so she sits as steady as a rock.

After a while, a little maid came in timidly, walked up to Erya and whispered, "Second Miss, Prince Yun is outside the Chuihua Gate. He said he wants to see you..."

Although it happened in front of everyone, no one dared to say anything this time.

Erya stood up confidently and said to Lu Qin's mother, "Mother, Yun Ting is looking for me. I'm going out for a while."

This time, the whole room was silent and no one dared to say a word.

Madam He even forced a smile to smooth things over: "Master Yun must have something important to do. Where's the fourth young lady? Why hasn't she returned for so long? Hurry, go look for her!"

Immediately a maid responded and went out.

Lu Qiniang felt that the food in this restaurant was not tasty.

They all look exquisite, but the taste is average and - not filling.

After returning home, she had to roll noodles for herself.

Erya followed the maid who led the way to the hanging flower gate.

Under the moonlight, Yun Ting was indeed waiting there.

He smelled faintly of alcohol, and his face looked a little gloomy under the cold moonlight. His thin lips were tightly pursed, and there was an obvious hint of anger between his brows.

But the moment he saw Arya, his anger dissipated a little, revealing a subtle sense of grievance.

"What's wrong? Want to go back?" Erya asked.

Having grown up together, she could feel that Yun Ting was very unhappy.

Then let’s go home and talk about it.

This is not my place, it's inconvenient.

"Come with me." Yun Ting pulled her sleeve.

The little maid behind him lowered her head, not daring to say a word or follow.

He pulled Erya through a moon-shaped door and walked to a quiet bamboo forest.

The cold moonlight shines through the sparse bamboo leaves, casting mottled shadows.

Yun Ting stopped and pointed to a figure kneeling on the ground deep in the bamboo forest. His voice was filled with suppressed anger: "Look..."

Erya looked closely and realized that the shivering figure was He Si.

She covered her face with her sleeves, her shoulders shaking slightly, as if she was sobbing.

"Fourth Miss?" Erya was a little surprised.

Yun Ting took a deep breath, his chest heaving, clearly furious. He quickly explained to Erya, "I had a few too many drinks at the banquet and came out to relieve myself. The girl who led the way took many detours and ended up bringing me to this secluded place. As soon as I realized something was wrong, Miss He Fourth rushed out of the bamboo forest and pounced on me. Luckily, I dodged quickly!"

"I pushed her away immediately. Nothing happened. But I was afraid I wouldn't be able to explain myself clearly, and I was even more afraid someone would use this to spread rumors to you, leading you to misunderstand. So I immediately detained the girl who led the way and forced her to tell me what her master meant. I also had someone watch He Si and immediately went to find you."

Yun Ting spoke like a machine gun, eager to clarify everything, fearing that Erya would misunderstand.

When Miss He Si, who was kneeling on the ground, heard Yun Ting's words, her whole body trembled even more violently.

She lowered her sleeves, revealing a tearful face filled with fear and despair. She kowtowed repeatedly in Erya's direction, her voice mournful and mournful: "Second Miss, please forgive me. I really have nowhere else to turn..."

She said that her stepmother wanted to marry her to a lecherous rich businessman for the sake of the bride price.

The wealthy businessman was a widower in his thirties. He was extremely lustful and had many wives and concubines at home. Two of his wives had been angered to death by him.

"Oh, what a 'desperate place'! Your stepmother told you to cling to the rich and powerful, and you chose the Crown Prince? Why didn't you just run over to the Emperor's palanquin? Wouldn't that be a quick ascent to heaven?"

"Yes, you are pitiful and desperate, but your family has committed a sin, so why don't you drag them down with you and cause trouble for others? Why does the prince deserve to be schemed against by you?"

Yun Ting said that Erya was his substitute for his mouth.
