Chapter 259 Must be a liar!
When the other ladies heard Lady Thirteen speak like this, they could no longer put on airs and had to walk up to Cen Yan, bowing their heads and apologizing one by one.
Regardless of whether their attitude was sincere, they did it anyway.
Finally, only Lady Jiu was left, still sitting there with a solemn expression and not moving a muscle.
"Nineth Lady, it's your turn." Thirteenth Lady urged, looking very serious. She was always very serious about betting and was willing to accept defeat. Perhaps she had lost too many times and got used to it.
When Lady Jiu heard that she was still urging her, the expression on her face suddenly became even colder.
No one dared to urge her!
It’s only this Lady Thirteen!
In the past, in Xiangyao County, in the social circle of young ladies from aristocratic families, she always had the final say!
But now this Lady Thirteen has come!
Relying on his family background, he always wants to suppress me!
Obviously, everything that happened today was caused by Lady Thirteen. I was standing up for her, but now look what happens!
"I don't believe it." After a long while, Lady Jiu finally managed to say this. She raised her chin arrogantly and looked at Cen Yan with contempt. "Who knows if the scar on her face is fake? If it is fake, it can be removed in no time by just applying some ointment!"
"Yes, what Ninth Lady said makes sense! Otherwise, how could she, who is so young and poor, get such a powerful ointment? I'm afraid that even the imperial doctors in the capital don't have it! I have never heard of such a powerful medicine in the world!"
"Yes, yes, yes! Lady Thirteen, you must have been deceived!"
"This young lady is so cunning and sly, she fooled us all right away!"
As soon as Lady Nine said this, the other ladies immediately echoed her.
After all, these young ladies had all seen the world, and each one was more eloquent than the other. With just a few words, they had firmly convicted Cen Yan.
"Hey, you're not really going to use a fake scar to trick us, are you?" Lady Thirteen asked Cen Yan doubtfully.
"Alas." Seeing these young ladies being so persistent and Lady Nine being so annoying, Cen Yan sighed and looked at Lady Thirteen, "May I ask if you have any scars on your body that you can't get rid of for years? Be it a birthmark or someone else's, I'll give this ointment a try and we'll know."
"This..." The other young ladies hesitated when they heard it.
In front of so many people, who would be willing to admit that they have scars on their body...
However, when Lady Thirteen heard this, she took the initiative to say, "I have a scar on my arm. It was from an accident when I went hunting with my brother. If you can remove it, it means that you are really capable and you are not lying."
The most important thing is, if the scars on her body were removed, no one would be able to accuse Cen Yan of being a liar.
"Can I take a look?" Cen Yan looked at her.
"Okay, but it's too inconvenient here. You have to go to my house." said Lady Thirteen.
"Xiaoyan!" When Cen Ying heard that they were going to her house, she immediately shook her head. She didn't trust Lady Thirteen and was afraid that she was up to something.
"It's okay, little aunt. You go home and wait for me. I'll go with this young lady to her home. Nothing will happen, don't worry." Cen Yan smiled and said to Cen Ying soothingly.
Even if something really happens, she has a portable space with her, so if there is an accident, nothing will happen.
On the contrary, if Cen Ying were to go along, it would be very inconvenient.
When Cen Ying heard this, he thought about it and nodded in agreement.
If Cen Yan really had something to do, she could immediately go find Ji Yunzhan and come back.
But if she went with them and something happened, there would be no one to report the incident or find anyone!
Cen Ying left immediately.
"Madam Thirteen, can I go to your house now?" Cen Yan looked at Madam Thirteen with a smile.
"Let's go!" Lady Thirteen was a little excited in her heart, but she appeared to be able to remain calm on the surface.
Take this girl home and listen to her tell more interesting stories about the mountains!
She immediately grabbed Cen Yan's hand and walked out.
When Lady Nine saw this scene, a hint of coldness flashed across her eyes.
The young ladies had no choice but to follow them to Lady Thirteen's residence.
Lady Thirteen lives not far from here.
In an alley called Qibao Hutong, there is a large mansion with seven courtyards. The plaque at the entrance only reads "Gu Mansion" in a very low-key manner.
But such large mansions are rare even in the county town, so even if one wants to be low-key, it appears too high-profile.
"We just moved here from the capital, and the house is not tidied yet. Please don't mind." Lady Thirteen pulled Cen Yan into the gate of the Gu Mansion, saying a little embarrassedly.
"No." Cen Yan walked into the gate of Gu Mansion in a soft and gentle tone, very leisurely. There was no sign of any restrained or petty behavior around her. Instead, she acted as naturally as if she had returned to her own home.
When Lady Thirteen saw her like this, she liked her even more and had completely forgotten the ruthless mockery and rudeness she had shown to her when she first met her.
The Gu family has indeed not yet cleaned up.
Along the way, one could see groups of servants carrying things in their hands, following the manager to tidy up things here and there.
Lady Thirteen took Cen Yan's hand and went to the small courtyard where she lived.
She suddenly brought back a young lady in simple clothes, which naturally alarmed the elders in the family.
However, no one came to disturb them rashly.
Lady Thirteen led Cen Yan into her boudoir and left everyone else outside. Then she took off her clothes in front of Cen Yan, revealing a scar on her shoulder.
Only then did Cen Yan realize that there were many people outside just now, and when she said it was an arm injury, she probably did it to consider the young lady's reputation.
Although Lady Thirteen looks carefree, she is actually quite careful and cautious.
"Let me take a look." Cen Yan went up to check the scar, frowning slightly, "This wound is not an old one, but a new one, no more than half a year old, and it was an arrow wound... Was he stabbed by an arrow?"
Under what circumstances would a young lady be pierced through the shoulder by an arrow while following her brother hunting?
What kind of family is this Gu Mansion?
"You can see that!" Lady Thirteen exclaimed, and then her face drooped, "Wasn't it just half a year ago? Oh, it really hurt me to death at that time, and I was left with this scar. The imperial doctors in the palace couldn't do anything!"
"It's okay." Cen Yan said calmly, "It can be removed."
"Really?" Lady Thirteen's eyes lit up.
"Of course it's true." Cen Yan smiled at her.
"Then apply the ointment to me quickly!" Lady Thirteen urged impatiently. After all, what girl doesn't love beauty? Even if the wound is in a hidden place, as long as there is a scar, it will grow in the heart, and you have to remove it to feel comfortable.
