Chapter 57: Tricks
In the past two days, Shen Qingyi has been guarding the little baby whenever she has time, but she hasn't been able to get a single word out of him.
Little Wan'er woke up and was bored. She was chewing her toes again, staring at her third sister who was sighing constantly with her big, bright eyes.
Why is Third Sister looking at me as if she's about to say something but hesitates? Is she trying to tell me something?
Shen Qingyi blinked.
Was she being so obvious?
My mental strength recovered somewhat, and I could barely communicate three sentences with others. After that, I fell into a coma, just like before.
If I use my mental power to ask my third sister what she's worried about, will it scare her away? Will she mistake me for a monster?
Shen Qingyi pursed her lips. Her younger sister seemed really worried that she would scare them.
But, that's true.
Before my younger sister came, if anyone told her that someone had traveled through time, she would definitely sneer.
But after the younger sister came, the whole family, including her, accepted it calmly.
Doesn't seem scared at all.
Thinking of what her younger sister had just said, Shen Qingyi felt extremely guilty. Her younger sister had always been worried about their entire family, but she was thinking about how to get information out of her younger sister.
"Miss San, the princess is here."
Just then, Shen Qingyi's personal maid came hurriedly over, her little face a little red because she ran too fast.
[Didn't the princess come here yesterday? No wonder everyone says the princess and her third sister have a great relationship. It seems to be true.]
Listening to her inner thoughts, Shen Qingyi suppressed her laughter and lowered her head to kiss her little face.
"Little sister, the princess is here. I'll go first and come back to accompany you later."
The little kid smiled at her and then hummed a little tune in his heart.
The beautiful and melodious music reached Shen Qingyi's ears, and surprise flashed in Shen Qingyi's eyes.
What song was my little sister humming? It was so beautiful, she had never heard such a beautiful song before.
When my little sister can speak, I will make sure she sings to me.
Shen Qingyi wanted to listen for a while longer, but thinking that the princess was waiting for her, she left reluctantly.
"Princess, why do you keep coming to my house lately?"
"This princess comes whenever she wants, what's it to you?"
"None of my business, Princess, you can go wherever you want. But Princess, are you angry today? Why are you speaking so harshly?"
"I'm not in a good mood when I see you! Do you have any objections?"
"How dare I object?"
"If you don't dare, don't complain."
As soon as I walked into my own small yard, I heard the sound of two people bickering non-stop. If there were other people around, I wonder how scared they would be.
Shen Qingyi narrowed her eyes slightly, and instead of going over directly, she hid behind the cave entrance and poked her head out to look over quietly.
In the yard not far away, a girl in yellow was standing on the steps, and a tall and slender man was standing at the bottom of the steps. There was about a distance of ten feet between the two.
Xiao Jinmian looked at him impatiently, while the expression on Chen Yaoxing's face showed his undisguised fondness in his dark eyes.
Now she was finally sure that her second brother really liked the princess.
His behavior was so obvious, why didn't she see it before?
But... the princess looked up and down, left and right, and didn't seem to like the second brother?
Did Dad and Big Brother make a mistake?
They are together. If I go there now, wouldn’t it be inappropriate?
Shen Qingyi hesitated.
"Hey, why hasn't Qingyi come yet?"
"Is the princess asking hello? Or is she asking me?"
"you!"
"Of course I'm asking you." Xiao Jinmian gritted her teeth and glared at him.
Hello, can you answer her?
"I have a name. Didn't the princess just tell me to shut up?"
Xiao Jinmian: "..."
Xiao Jinmian clenched her hands tightly and suddenly felt itchy.
"Princess, here I come."
Seeing that the two were continuing to chat, Shen Qingyi was afraid that they would fight, so she didn't hide and ran out quickly.
She rolled her eyes at Shen Yaoxing.
No wonder the princess doesn't like him. Who could like him when he looks like he deserves a beating?
Why do you always go against the princess?
"Qingyi, you're here. I've been waiting for you for a long time."
Xiao Jinmian simply ignored Shen Yaoxing, and hurried forward to take Shen Qingyi's arm and walked towards her room.
"Let's go. There are flies buzzing around here. It's really annoying."
Shen Qingyi: "..."
Being pulled away by Xiao Jinmian, Shen Qingyi looked at the man behind her with sympathy.
Chen Yaoxing frowned, and only came to his senses after the two figures left his sight.
The thought that someone hated him so much made him feel very disappointed.

"Qingyi, let me tell you..."
Xiao Jinmian pulled her over and started telling her what happened when Rong Huoer went to find Xie Xuanyong.
"My cousin wanted to go look for Master Xie. When the maid found out, she said she had a stomachache and wanted to go back home first. Seeing how uncomfortable she was, my cousin hesitated."
Hearing this, Shen Qingyi frowned and asked worriedly, "Huo'er won't really return home, right?"
"Yes, my cousin couldn't bear it and decided to go back home first. Luckily, you reminded me. When I asked the guards to catch up, I saw that her carriage didn't look like it was going to the Xie family, so I asked them to stop it."
After asking, she found out the reason and asked the Rong family's carriage to take the maid back first, and I took my cousin to the Xie family.
When the maid heard this, her face turned pale with fear and she begged Rong Huoer to send her back.
Rong Huoer could definitely see through such an abnormal appearance.
He immediately let go of the maid's hand and ordered the groom to send the maid back first.
When they arrived at Xie's house, Xiao Jinmian was waiting in a carriage, and Rong Huoer went to see Xie Xuanyong by himself.
Just as Shen Qingyi said, Xie Xuanyong waited for a whole night but did not see anyone. In the following days, Rong Huoer did not give him an explanation. He could not bear it any longer and went to Rong Huoer's house to ask him in person. Unexpectedly, the guard of the Rong family stopped him and said that Huoer's personal maid had told him that the eldest lady was developing feelings with Chen Wenyuan, and asked him not to disturb them in the future.
After being rejected several times in a row, Xie Xuanyong was filled with anger and couldn't understand why his anger suddenly changed.
Therefore, when Rong Huo'er came to the door, she was stopped outside and told that her young master was looking for a girl and had no time to see her.
Rong Huoer just felt that Xie Xuanyong had fallen in love with someone else and really liked another girl, and returned to the carriage in a daze.
As soon as Xiao Jinmian saw her sad expression, she knew that she didn't see anyone, but was bullied instead. She was not a good-tempered person, and she couldn't bear to see her cousin suffer such injustice, so she rushed into Xie's house with her men.
The princess came, and although she broke in, no one in the Xie family dared to show any disapproval, and they immediately greeted her respectfully.
Xiao Jinmian specifically asked to see Xie Xuanyong, and threatened that if she couldn't see him, she would stay in Xie's house.
The head of the Xie family knew the princess's temper and dared not let her stay in the Xie Mansion like this, so he quickly sent someone to call Xie Xuanyong.
The two then had the opportunity to meet.
"Why did you break your promise on the Qiqiao Festival?"
"Your guards said you were looking for a girl? Is that true?"
Rong Huoer was so angry that her hands were shaking. She wanted to get it clear. If he really wanted to see the girl, then she would give up.
