With ulterior motives, Shuyuan began to approach Tong Yunyao.
She had naturally heard of Tong Yunyao's reputation, but she didn't care much. The Ulanara family wasn't a small family, and Tong Yunyao probably wouldn't be so disrespectful.
Besides, she had heard that Tong Yunyao was not well-liked by the noble ladies and princesses, so wasn't this her chance?
Shuyuan is also a capable person. Her current appearance is almost the same as her appearance in modern times. In modern times, her family was well-off, not too bad, but she was vain!
It's only natural for people to be a little vain and love beauty, but she wasn't just a little vain and love beauty; she was vain and loved beauty a lot. And because she had a good appearance, she had no shortage of boyfriends.
Not only that, she also knew how to befriend the young ladies from wealthy families. After all, there were some things she got from her roommate, a girl from a rich family, who was her best friend.
Therefore, Shuyuan believed she had a way to deal with a somewhat domineering and arrogant princess like Tong Yunyao.
"Who are you?" Tong Yunyao was in a bad mood, and being seen by someone like this made her tone rather unfriendly.
Given Tong Yunyao's tone, most noble ladies and princesses would have gotten angry, ignored her, and stormed off. But Shuyuan was different! Among the people she tried to please in the modern world, there were many whose attitudes were worse than hers.
Shuyuan said, "I am Ulanara Shuyuan, and my father is Feiyanggu."
Tong Yunyao understood. Although she was a woman from the inner quarters of the household, she still knew these things. Fei Yanggu's status as a princess was quite good, and she was worthy of speaking to her.
However: "Is there something you need?"
"I stumbled upon this place by chance, and I apologize for disturbing you."
Tong Yunyao: "It's not a matter of disturbing or not disturbing."
She was in a bad mood and spoke somewhat perfunctorily.
Shuyuan understood, but she didn't care.
"I've never seen you before, but you look familiar. Which family's princess are you?" Shuyuan asked knowingly.
When Tong Yunyao heard her say that she looked familiar, she couldn't help but laugh: "You think I look familiar?"
"That's right! You're so good-looking, and good-looking people naturally have kind faces."
These words made Tong Yunyao feel better.
“You do know how to tell the truth. My name is Tong Yunyao, and my maternal grandfather is the Duke of Tong.”
Then the two started chatting back and forth.
Shuyuan is indeed quite capable; she flattered people without using a fawning tone.
It's not that Tong Yunyao is brainless; it's just that Shuyuan is shrewd. In addition, Tong Yunyao doesn't think she has anything that Shuyuan would covet. After all, she knows that Shuyuan's family background is no worse than hers, and Shuyuan is a legitimate daughter, which she can't compare to.
Although Tong Yunyao is arrogant, everyone needs a sense of recognition. She was rejected, and although others treated her with respect, their attitude was polite but distant. Now that someone was willing to be close to her, she quickly started chatting with Shuyuan.
Shuyuan felt that it was about right, and then smiled with satisfaction.
"I heard you have a twin sister, why isn't she with you?"
Shuyuan looked troubled and said, "We came together, but we separated after we arrived. I don't know where my sister went."
Tong Yunyao: "What, you two don't get along?"
Shuyuan stammered, "It's not that we have a bad relationship. My sister always feels that I absorbed our mother's looks in the womb, which caused her to look like our father. So it's my fault."
Tong Yunyao considered Shuyuan a friend, and upon hearing her say this, she immediately retorted, "What kind of talk is this? A person's appearance is given by their father and mother. This is her own bad luck, not your fault."
"Thank you for your comfort, but I'm afraid my sister is really upset, otherwise she wouldn't have been holding a grudge for so long."
Tong Yunyao sighed, "Sister, you have such a kind heart, but I'm afraid your kindness may not be rewarded!"
"My sister just misunderstood for a moment. She'll understand when she's a little older. Mother said that the bond between sisters is the most genuine in the world."
Tong Yunyao thought of her sisters at home and didn't believe this at all. However, her sisters were all half-sisters, so perhaps it was different for full sisters! Speaking of which, Tong Yunyao was a little envious of Shuyuan's younger sister for having such a good older sister.
"Your sister is lucky to have a sister like you; I could only dream of having one!"
"It's not as good as you say."
The two of them praised each other, and their relationship grew stronger with each compliment.
At this moment, Tong Yunyao's maid came and said, "Princess, Princess Cheng'er has sent someone to invite you over."
Disgust flashed in Tong Yunyao's eyes, and she said impatiently, "I know, just tell her to wait a while."
The maid wanted to say something, but Tong Yunyao glared at her, and she didn't dare to speak again.
Shuyuan did seem to have figured something out.
"What did Princess Cheng'er do to upset her younger sister?"
Tong Yunyao scoffed, "She has no ability to make me unhappy; it's more like I'm the one making her unhappy."
Shuyuan coaxed her, "No matter who upset whom, if our Yunyao frowns, then it's her fault. Since you're such a good-natured person, it's probably just that the other party is being tactless."
These words pleased Tong Yunyao greatly. Even her most sycophantic maidservant spoke so sweetly to her, but her heart was filled with unease.
"Then, sister, what do you think we should do to deal with such an ungrateful person?"
Shuyuan hadn't expected Tong Yunyao to be so vengeful, so she asked her how to deal with people.
However, she actually had a way to deal with this.
She had actually heard some things about the feud between Tong Yunyao and Tong Cheng'er. Since Tong Cheng'er was the host today, if something embarrassing happened to her, who would want to associate with her in the future?
