Shen Guan recognized it as Yang Jiyan's voice and her expression changed slightly. Why did Sister Yan come here today?
Thinking about the fact that she had mentioned the garden tour in front of Madam Yang the day before, Shen Guan couldn't help but think more. It might not be a coincidence that Yang Jiyan also appeared in the Plum Garden today.
Two figures walked into the pavilion, followed by several maids. When they approached, Cheng Ying flashed and jumped onto the roof of the pavilion. As soon as he saw clearly that the one playing the pipa was the little girl from the Liu family, Cheng Ying woke up from his trance. He did not want to show up as he was still immersed in the pipa music of "Nichang Fenghua" just now.
Liu Yaoyu recognized Yang Jiyan at a glance and sneered, "Who was I thinking was barking? It turns out it's you, an uneducated swallow. Lord Yang seems to be a well-read man, but how could he raise a daughter like you who doesn't even know how to appreciate music? And you dare to speak so arrogantly here, are you afraid that others don't know that you are vulgar and ignorant and unworthy of being in a noble place?"
Yang Jiyan's face looked extremely ugly, she never expected that Liu Yaoyu could be so sharp-tongued. She had also seen Liu Yaoyu at other banquets in her previous life. She was a straightforward and bright girl. But now she realized that Liu Yaoyu's mouth could be very effective in choking people!
"I know Miss Liu Er despises my background, but she shouldn't humiliate me like this." Yang Jiyan changed her usual domineering look, her expression was full of grievance, but her words were a scapegoat, "With a father like Liu Ci Fu, Miss Liu Er said that I am not worthy of being in the upper class, right?"
Liang Wushuang, who was standing by, heard her words and thought about his own background. These young ladies from aristocratic families have enjoyed wealth and glory since birth. They don't have to work hard for a living, nor do they have to worry about not having enough food and clothes. They don't have to do housework and all they have to do is spend their time practicing piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.
Her marriage was arranged by her parents, so she didn't have to go out in public to make ends meet like she did, and was forced to be given to a eunuch like a toy.
Born superior to others, these people are just born into a good family.
Liang Wushuang couldn't help but sneer, "I was wondering who was so arrogant, it turns out to be the girl from Liu Cifu's family, no wonder she speaks with sarcasm and looks down on others!"
Although it was just a quick glance in the teahouse, Liu Yaoyu remembered Liang Wushuang's appearance. She had also heard rumors in the capital that Governor Cheng had kept a woman outside the palace, and that woman was very favored. Many people flatteredly called her Madam Wushuang.
The fear that Cheng Ying left in Liu Yaoyu a few days ago had not yet dissipated. Thinking that Liang Wushuang was Cheng Ying's woman, Liu Yaoyu endured it and dared not say anything.
Seeing this, Liang Wushuang smiled even more deeply. Lord Cheng was indeed very powerful! Miss Liu, who was just sharp-tongued, didn't even dare to say a word back. What about the cabinet minister or the assistant minister? Lord Cheng was the one with the most power in the world. Even if she was just a woman he kept outside the palace, all these young ladies from noble families could be trampled under her feet.
Yu Jiao looked at Liang Wushuang's face and felt really uncomfortable. This woman looked about 60% similar to herself in her previous life. Although she had familiar facial features, the expression she revealed was very unfamiliar, which was really frustrating.
Yao Yu would always protect her, so Yu Jiao would naturally not watch her being ridiculed.
"Madam Wushuang is wrong. It was Miss Yang who insulted the song I played first, and my second sister stood up for me later." Yu Jiao did not look at Liang Wushuang's face again, and just said lightly, "Madam Wushuang can't be so partial to Miss Yang just because she is good friends with her."
Yu Jiao's call of "Madam Wushuang" let everyone else in the pavilion know Liang Wushuang's identity.
What happened at the coming-of-age banquet at the Liu Mansion that day was discussed privately by the male guests with their families after they returned home, and Song Jingrong and others also heard about it.
They simply couldn't afford to offend a powerful eunuch like Cheng Ying.
And this Wushuang lady took advantage of Cheng Ying's power. As the saying goes, a villain is successful, so there is no need to compete with him.
"We are just about to leave. If Madam Wushuang wants to use this water pavilion, please go ahead." Song Jingrong was the most clear-headed. She spoke in a neither humble nor arrogant manner, and then asked the maids to clean up the things and signaled the others to go to Xianghai Huaxi together.
Liang Wushuang stood at the door, blocking the way of several people. He did not move, but just looked up at Yu Jiao's face.
He does look good, she thought to herself.
When Song Jingrong saw Liang Wushuang's attitude, she knew that there would be some trouble today.
Liang Wushuang looked at Yu Jiao, and the image of Lu Jin smiling at her with a red face outside the Rouge Shop that day emerged in his mind. He also thought of how this Miss Liu San was molested by Prince Qin and was entangled with the young Marquis Gu of the Annan Marquisate.
She was just coming of age, with a fair and pretty face but still a little immature. However, her methods of seducing men were very sophisticated. Lu Jin had obviously always been thinking about her. Some time ago, he often wandered in Yudai Hutong, waiting from dawn to dusk, just to see her. Now, after only a few days, he was seduced by this little girl!
When Liang Wushuang thought of Lu Jin's love that was taken away from her, jealousy surged in her heart.
