Chapter 100: He fell in love with Lin Qingjun?
Madam Qi’s birthday banquet was extremely lively.
The guests who came and went were all prominent figures in the capital, from the second-rank officials to the eighth-rank secret officials.
There were at least a hundred male guests and female relatives.
From a distance, it looks vast and mighty.
Even if it happened again, Xiao Yuan couldn't help but feel excited when looking at this scene.
If so, how great it would be if his banquet could also have such a scene.
Xiao Yuan thought of something and lowered his eyes again. He knew in his heart that the glory of the Qi Mansion would not last long and would fall apart in a year and a half at most. As for the reason, it was said that it was done by someone in the royal family, but he didn't know who it was.
"Xiao Yuan? Why are you here?"
At this moment, Lin Yingxue, who came out to get some fresh air, looked at the person in front of her in disbelief.
Today is the old lady's birthday party, and many noble ladies want to take this opportunity to make friends with her. If it were in the past, she would definitely not refuse, but today she wants to meet not them, but someone else.
She originally wanted to go look for her mother and where the prince was, but there were too many people and too many things to do today. She didn't know where her aunts had taken her, so she had no choice but to go out and look for him by herself.
She thought she could see him in the quiet back garden, but unexpectedly, she met Xiao Yuan?
"Yingxue?"
Xiao Yuan's eyes lit up. He looked up and down at the woman in front of him. She was wearing a royal blue dress, with picturesque eyebrows and eyes, and delicate makeup. A woman like this was worthy of being the woman of his dreams and the woman he loved the most.
Lin Yingxue originally wanted to find an excuse to leave, but Xiao Yuan stopped her.
"By the way, Yingxue, what birthday gift did your mother give you?"
Lin Yingxue frowned slightly, very unhappy. How come he was so poor that he had to think of buying a birthday gift?
Xiao Yuan didn't notice the disgust in her eyes, and he continued.
"Don't give Madam Qi an expensive birthday gift, Yingxue. Times are different now. No matter how glorious the Qi Mansion is, there is a limit to its value."
"I'm worried that your Lin Mansion and Qi Mansion are too deeply involved, and it will be difficult to separate them when the time comes."
Xiao Yuan wanted to reach out and hold Lin Yingxue's hand, but Lin Yingxue was so scared that she quickly retreated, her face pale and full of resentment. It would have been fine if he had done it in a corner of the Lin Mansion where she couldn't be seen, but this was the Qi Mansion, and the prince was here, with people coming and going. Did he want to kill her?
Xiao Yuan looked up suddenly and saw the flash of disgust on her face.
He was stunned. He must have seen it wrong. How could Yingxue, who loved him so much, despise him?
He must have been reckless just now.
That’s right, this is the Qi Mansion, not the Lin Mansion. There are too many people here, which is not good for her reputation.
He apologized, "It's my fault. I just missed you too much. And you were dressed like a fairy today, I just couldn't help it."
After hearing this, Lin Yingxue felt a little better.
She replied lazily, "What my mother gave me today was just a set of head ornaments worth three hundred taels. It's not a big gift."
Although three hundred taels is valuable, it is far from being considered a grand gift. Only something over five hundred taels can be considered a grand gift.
only.
Lin Yingxue frowned. What happened to what he had just said about the Qi Mansion's splendor having a limit? Why did this sound similar to what Lin Qingjun had said before?
Saying that affection will wear away or something like that.
However, the old lady saved the eldest princess's life, and this kindness cannot be erased. If it could be erased, why did the eldest princess give the old lady the Dongzhu that she wanted last year?
Lin Yingxue became more and more displeased with Xiao Yuan. Was he unwilling to see the Qi family doing well?
Three hundred taels?
Xiao Yuan murmured, "This is not much."
Thinking back to the birthday gifts Lin Qingjun had given him, the total value reached over four hundred taels, which included a Duan inkstone made by a famous artist, gold-sprinkled Xuan paper produced in Jiangcheng, several calligraphy books by famous artists and some rare copies.
but.
Thinking of this, Xiao Yuan's eyes flashed with something strange.
This was also the gift she gave him the year he killed her. He never expected that she would die in his hands.
He still felt a little guilty towards Lin Qingjun. As a wife, she took good care of Zhou Xiang and put him first in everything. But she was always making trouble for him, which was something he didn't want.
"By the way, didn't Qingjun come today?"
He looked behind Lin Yingxue, but there was nothing there.
He remembered that in his previous life, Lin Qingjun had come here, and it seemed that because he had offended Old Madam Qi and made Qi unhappy, he was punished to kneel in the bamboo forest in the side courtyard.
Um.
If possible, he could kindly remind Lin Qingjun not to make Qi angry again, and also ask her not to anger Qi, so as to save her from the pain of kneeling as punishment.
If she had already angered him and been punished to kneel, he could also give her some medicine and persuade her not to offend him and control her vicious temper.
Just consider it as a way to thank her for taking care of me in my previous life.
This is all he can do, no more.
Lin Yingxue instantly became angry.
"Xiao Yuan, the person standing in front of you now is me. Why are you mentioning that bitch...why are you mentioning her?"
"Or, are you really in love with her?"
When Lin Yingxue said this, her expression became more and more out of control.
Yes, yes.
When they were together, he always mentioned Lin Qingjun intentionally or unintentionally. Did he really fall in love with that bitch?
The last time they were at Qifulou, there was something wrong with the way he looked at her.
Last time in the rockery at the Lin Mansion, his tone was not right. Did he also mention how they met that year?
Although Lin Qingjun is a concubine's daughter, she is better looking than her, and has embroidery skills and etiquette that she cannot match, as well as a luxurious temperament in her every move.
In other words, apart from being a concubine's daughter, there was nothing to be criticized about Lin Qingjun.
No, it's not possible.
Even if she looked down on Xiao Yuan, she would never let Xiao Yuan like Lin Qingjun. She would rather destroy Xiao Yuan than let Lin Qingjun succeed.
"Xiao Yuan, let me tell you, I asked you to marry Lin Qingjun, but I didn't ask you to give her your heart."
"I order you not to be tempted by her."
"Also, after you get married, you can't sleep together without my permission. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude."
She wanted to make Lin Qingjun a widow, preferably a widow for her entire life. She wanted to make her a laughing stock in the entire Shangjing.
Xiao Yuan was a little stunned.
He had never seen Lin Yingxue angry, this was the first time.
Her face was covered with tears and her eyes were full of murderous intent.
She wanted to kill Lin Qingjun?
When this thought came out, he was shocked. Yingxue was so kind, how could she possibly want to kill someone? Moreover, she had said before that no matter what Lin Qingjun did, she was still her good sister. She just asked him not to be angry with Lin Qingjun.
How could such a magnanimous person have such vicious thoughts?
Yes.
She must be jealous of Lin Qingjun.
He knew that women liked to act on their emotions. In their eyes, men could only pamper one of them, otherwise they would be petty and show that they did not love them.
His heart warmed, and he knew that Yingxue had him in her heart.
He hugged Lin Yingxue lovingly.
"Don't worry, you are the only one in my heart."
"I will never fall in love with Lin Qingjun."
He only owed her a little bit.
