Chapter 39 Invitation
Yuan Ziyu and Huo Wan looked up and saw Yuan Zitong standing at the door looking at them with a smile on her face.
"Second sister, whose little girl is this? She is so cute!" Yuan Zitong sat on the embroidered cushion beside her, looking at Huo Wan.
Huo Wan didn't know Yuan Zitong, so she looked at Yuan Ziyu!
Yuan Ziyu then said to Yuan Zitong calmly, "This is Aunt Meng's daughter, Huo Wan!"
"Wan'er, this is my second aunt's daughter, Yuan Zitong, two years older than me!" Yuan Ziyu said to Huo Wan.
As soon as Yuan Zitong heard this, she understood that Huo Wan must be Huo Xifei's sister. She immediately said to Huo Wan enthusiastically, "So it's Sister Wan. I've heard the prince talk about you before, but I didn't expect to meet you until today."
Be obedient and listen to the instructions.
Although Huo Wan was young, she was quite smart. She smiled faintly and said to Yuan Zitong, "Hello, Miss Yuan, have you heard my brother talk about me? But my brother has never mentioned you."
Yuan Zitong couldn't help but choke upon hearing this, and smiled awkwardly, "I overheard the prince mention it when he came to the mansion to deliver the four gifts, and I remembered it. I thought that the prince and my second sister were engaged, and our two families would be like one family, so naturally I wanted to meet Sister Wan!"
"Big sister, please don't say that lightly!" Yuan Ziyou said with a smile, "I'm the one who's engaged to the prince, but big sister's words could easily be misunderstood. If people think you have any improper thoughts about the prince, I'm afraid it will damage your reputation!"
"Why do you say that, Second Sister!" Yuan Zitong's heart skipped a beat. She almost thought Yuan Ziyu had seen through her thoughts. "I absolutely have no improper thoughts about the prince. Second Sister, please don't ruin my reputation!"
"How did Sister You ruin your reputation?" Huo Wan picked up a piece of milk and water chestnut flour cake, took a satisfied bite, and looked at Yuan Zitong with a puzzled expression: "She obviously cares about you and is just reminding you!"
"Oh, that's it!" Yuan Zitong was unhappy to see Huo Wan protecting Yuan Ziyu everywhere, but Huo Wan was Huo Xifei's sister after all, so she had to leave a good impression on her. So she smiled and said to Yuan Ziyu, "I heard it wrong, don't blame me, second sister!"
"How could that be? I guess elder sister didn't mean it!" Yuan Ziyu said with a smile!
"I'm glad Second Sister doesn't blame me!" Yuan Zitong smiled and said, "By the way, I came here today to invite Second Sister."
"Oh?" Yuan Ziyu raised her eyebrows slightly: "I wonder what big sister wants to invite me to do?"
"Tomorrow is the Lantern Festival. Every year during the Lantern Festival, there will be a lantern festival in the capital, on Chong'an Street. I thought of inviting my second sister to go out to see the lanterns with me. What do you think?" Yuan Zitong smiled and said to Huo Wan, "Sister Wan, why don't you come? We can be companions and it will be more lively!"
"Ouch!" Huo Wan suddenly cried out!
"What's wrong with Wan'er?" Yuan Ziyu asked hurriedly.
Huo Wan patted her forehead and said, "Sister You, I was so busy thinking about snacks that I forgot about the important matter. I came here today to invite you to go watch the lanterns with me tomorrow. Mother is worried about me being alone. Sister You, please accompany me to watch the lanterns tomorrow!"
As Huo Wan spoke, she shook Yuan Ziyu's arm and acted coquettishly.
Yuan Ziyu tapped Huo Wan's nose with amusement: "Aunt Meng is right. I see, you don't miss me, you miss snacks!"
"No way!" Huo Wan blinked her round eyes: "I obviously missed you, and I missed some snacks by the way!"
Yuan Ziyu laughed at Huo Wan's words, and even Qingying and Qingzhi beside him smiled silently.
Yuan Zitong felt like an outsider, and her whole body became uncomfortable. She suppressed her unhappiness and smiled again, "That's perfect, the three of us can keep each other company tomorrow."
Yuan Ziyu looked at Yuan Zitong with a smile. She naturally knew the purpose of Yuan Zitong inviting her to see the lanterns, but whether she could succeed was not something Yuan Zitong could control.
"Okay, let's go together!" Yuan Ziyu said indifferently.
"In that case, it's settled!" Yuan Zitong smiled and stood up: "I won't disturb Second Sister and Sister Wan anymore."
Although she wanted to make friends with Huo Wan, Yuan Zitong really didn't want to stay in Wuyou Pavilion. The longer she stayed, the more unwilling she felt. If she hadn't wanted her grandmother to know that she cared about her sisters, she would not have been willing to come to Wuyou Pavilion!
"Then take care, big sister!" Yuan Ziyu also stood up with a smile.
"Second sister, please stay!" Yuan Zitong smiled and said to Huo Wan, "Sister Wan, I have some things to do today. I'll treat you next time!"
"Miss Yuan, you're too polite!" Huo Wan said with a smile!
"No problem!" Yuan Zitong said, and then took Lian Qiao away from Wuyou Pavilion!
After Yuan Zitong left, Huo Wan pouted and said to Yuan Ziyu, "Sister You, you are such a fake sister!"
"Hey, Wan'er, when did you learn to read faces?" Yuan Ziyu couldn't help but smile with her hands covering her lips.
Huo Wan wrinkled her nose: "Your sister's expression when she looked around your room is exactly the same as my third sister's!"
The third sister that Huo Wan mentioned was Huo Jiao, the legitimate daughter of the third master of the Huo family.
Yuan Ziyou smiled and said, "Okay, let's not talk about spoilers anymore. Are these snacks to your liking today?"
When talking about snacks, Huo Wan's eyes lit up immediately. "Delicious, really delicious, Sister You, I heard from Aunt Liu that these snacks were all your idea, right?"
"Yes!" Yuan Ziyu nodded.
"Oh my God, Sister You, you are so awesome. I wish my eldest brother would marry you sooner!" Huo Wan said with her eyes wide open.
Yuan Ziyu couldn't help but blush, and then she pinched Huo Wan's face: "You are young, but you know a lot. Let me see if I will forgive you!"
"Oh, Sister You, please spare my life. Wan'er won't dare to do it again!" Huo Wan smiled and made a fuss with Yuan Ziyu.
Yuan Zitong returned to Tongxiangyuan angrily with Lian Qiao!
"You stupid girl, you actually humiliated me in front of outsiders. I'll teach you a lesson tomorrow!" Yuan Zitong said hatefully.
"Eldest Miss!" Lian Qiao said cautiously, "Do you think the Second Miss knows something?"
Yuan Zitong's heart skipped a beat, and she angrily said, "What could she know? She's only been back for less than two months, what could she know?"
After saying that, he narrowed his eyes and glared at Lian Qiao: "Or did you say something behind my back, and that damn girl found out?"
"Miss!" Lian Qiao knelt hurriedly on the ground: "Even if I had a hundred guts, I wouldn't dare to talk about you behind your back!"
"Hmph, I don't think you'd dare!" Yuan Zitong rolled her eyes. "Get up! If I ever find out what you've done, you'll be in big trouble. You know what Honeysuckle is capable of!"
Lian Qiao shuddered almost imperceptibly: "Yes!"
