Chapter 156 Second Miss, I'm Offended
A servant from the mansion passed by and rescued Situ Yue and took him to the guest room to change clothes. Yun Yao sat aside happily eating crab roe cakes and listening to their conversation.
She had not originally planned to come, but when she heard that the Tenth Princess would not come today, she felt at ease and followed her.
Come to think of it, this was her first time attending a wedding banquet!
I don’t know if there are many delicious foods at the wedding banquet!
The bride had been brought back and the feast was ready, the maid from the mansion came over to announce it, and everyone stood up.
Qiao Chuxue noticed that Qiao Wanyan had not stood up, "Sister Wanyan, let's go over there. The table is ready."
Qiao Wanyan said calmly: "You guys go first, I feel a little dizzy and want to get some fresh air here to sober myself up."
Qiao Chuxue asked a few questions with concern, and after hearing the other party say that it was nothing serious, she gave some more instructions and left.
Seeing this, everyone had no choice but to leave. However, Yun Yao had not left yet. She was obediently eating the crab roe cakes, wanting to wait for Qiao Wanyan to get better so that they could leave together.
Although she was still here, Yun Yao was already looking forward to what delicious food would be on the table.
Only after leaving Pharmacist Valley did she realize that there were so many delicious foods out there. What a hard life she had lived before!
"Yaoyao, you can go with me."
Yun Yao shook her head, her round almond eyes shining incredibly brightly like stars, "I'm waiting for Sister A Yan to come with me, I can hold it in."
Qiao Wanyan laughed: "Just go if I ask you to. It's not easy to attend a wedding banquet, you must eat more to share in the joy."
After coaxing Yun Yao away, Qiao Wanyan beckoned Zi Yuan to come over, and then whispered a few words in her ear.
Zi Yuan paused for a moment, then immediately soothed her gently, "Don't be afraid, young lady. I'll go right away and be back soon!"
After she finished speaking, her feet raised a little dust like the wind. Her hurried figure was like a flash of emerald green lightning passing through the ground.
Lu Jinye looked at her twice, not knowing what was going on.
But he could see that Qiao Wanyan's face was a little pale, and the contented look on her face when she came now looked a little solemn.
"What's wrong?" Lu Jinye asked.
Qiao Wanyan shook her head slightly, "Nothing."
These three simple words don’t mean anything, but Lu Jinye knew clearly that something must have happened.
But she hadn't encountered anything strange since she came here, nor had she eaten anything strange. Why did she suddenly react so unusually?
Qiao Wanyan's hands were clenched into fists. Her originally rosy and delicate cheeks were now completely bloodless, as pale as white paper with a hint of sickly color.
Her brows were slightly frowned. If she hadn't put on lip balm today, her face would have looked even more haggard and weak.
"Are you feeling uncomfortable?" Lu Jinye asked with a frown.
Qiao Wanyan didn't have the strength to speak, and her jade hand suddenly grabbed his arm tightly. Her nails scratched his skin through his clothes, causing a slight pain, but Lu Jinye squatted down and asked as if he didn't feel it, "Where do you feel uncomfortable?"
Qiao Wanyan was sweating profusely from the pain and couldn't utter a word. She just held his arm tightly, hoping to relieve some of the pain.
Lu Jinye immediately wanted to pick her up and take her to see a doctor, but Qiao Wanyan broke free and stopped him.
"No, just let me sit like this."
She was wearing a bright yellow gauze skirt today, and her back would definitely be stained by it. If she stood up like this, it would definitely be obvious.
For the first time, Lu Jinye felt what it meant to be at a loss. It was not right to pick her up and take her away, but it was not safe to just stay here and stand there.
There was a crisp sound of porcelain hitting stone slabs.
Xu Shujian placed a bowl of warm bird's nest and red date soup on the table, with a black cloak draped over his arm.
"Second Miss, this is warm and just right for drinking. Drinking some should help relieve your discomfort."
Qiao Wanyan glanced at him, said nothing, picked up the bowl of warm sweet soup and took a sip.
Lu Jinye was confused. Thirst? So thirsty? Why not just tell him? He could go get it back.
And there is clearly tea on the table, why don’t you drink it?
After eating a whole bowl of bird's nest and red date soup, the piercing pain in my abdomen did not ease.
She had never felt such pain during her menstruation in the past. Even if she felt a little uncomfortable, she could endure it and it would get better after drinking some hot soup.
But she didn't know what happened today. She was in so much pain that she had no strength left in her body. Moreover, she died early in such an embarrassing way in someone else's house.
She felt a warm current flowing out from under her body, but she couldn't stand up in front of those people.
Although they would not dare to show the slightest hint of ridicule in front of him after checking them directly, they would definitely tease him behind his back.
The thought of such an embarrassing thing made her scalp tingle.
I endured it for a while, and I don't know if it was because the stone chair was too cold, but I suddenly had an unbearable stomachache and wanted to kneel on the ground and roll around.
"Second Miss, I'm sorry."
Xu Shujian put the cloak on his arm over Qiao Wanyan and said, "Second Miss, I have been here several times before and I know how to get to the back door from here. If you don't mind, I can take you out of the back door to the Shangshu Mansion."
Qiao Wanyan didn't say anything, just nodded slightly.
Seeing her weak appearance, Lu Jinye was about to go forward and pick her up, but Xu Shujian was faster and, relying on his proximity to her, he said again, "Second Miss, you're offended." Then he put the hood of his cloak on her to cover her face, picked her up sideways and walked towards the west corridor.
Lu Jinye frowned slightly, wanting to stop the man. But seeing Qiao Wanyan's almost sickly expression, he followed without saying a word.
Xu Shujian said calmly, "Could you please drive the Shangshu Mansion's carriage to the west back door?"
Lu Jinye said in a deep voice: "Who are you to order me around? How can I know if you are a gentleman? Did you really bring her to the west back door safely? How can people trust you, a foreign man?"
Qiao Wanyan's weak voice came from under the wide hat, "Listen to him."
Lu Jinye's expression changed slightly.
Xu Shujian just glanced at him and then looked away, walking quickly forward without any intention of wasting time with the guard.
Jiang Qiyun went to pay a visit to the old lady in the mansion. On his way to the banquet, he saw a young man holding a girl with her face covered coming towards him.
There was no expression on Jiang Qiyunsong Fengshuiyue's face. When the two of them passed by, he inadvertently glanced at the hanging hand of the woman in the embrace and stopped immediately.
He was not a man with a good memory, but that hand was the only thing he could remember clearly for the rest of his life.
"stop!"
