Concubine Xie had no idea that a storm was about to break out against her.
She even pulled Wen Nuan Nuan with joy, "Nuan Nuan, you are my savior, my benefactor!"
"From now on, you will follow me!"
The more Concubine Xie looked at Wen Nuan, the more she liked her.
The maidservant beside her had already reminded her, and Concubine Xie was pleasantly surprised to discover, "You, child, actually look very much like me when I was young."
"Back then, when I was chosen to enter the palace, I was two years younger than you."
"At that time, I was also wearing coarse linen clothes, but it still couldn't hide my natural beauty."
Concubine Xie has always been very proud of her appearance.
Perhaps, she is not the most beautiful one in the harem full of beauties and spring scenery.
But to most women, she is beautiful.
Back then, she was chosen by the Flower and Bird Envoy because of her face and sent directly to the capital.
If she had not inherited Cheng'en, given birth to a prince, and become a concubine dowager, Concubine Xie might have resented being "chosen out of the blue".
But now she is a noble concubine, standing in a high position that countless women can hardly reach in their lifetime, and possessing absolute wealth. Instead, she can look back on the past with a relieved attitude.
Deep down in her heart, she even felt a little relieved.
Fortunately, I entered the palace, otherwise, I would be like my mother, sister-in-law and all the women in the countryside, staying in a small mountain village all my life, only able to revolve around the fields and the stove.
Concubine Xie's third sister-in-law is the same age as Concubine Xie, but now when the two stand together, Concubine Xie is obviously younger and more noble.
This was after Concubine Xie gave birth to a prince. She had already found ways to take care of her natal family, and the Xie family had lived a wealthy life early on.
But, the daughter-in-law of an ordinary family is still different from that of a royal family!
"My Lady, Nuannuan doesn't dare to compete with you."
"And Nuannuan thinks you're much prettier than Nuannuan."
Wen Nuannuan has a very sweet mouth, and she can't say anything bad about someone who obviously likes her very much.
She is an extrovert and knows how to "climb the pole".
After only spending half a day together, Wen Nuannuan was already able to hold Concubine Xie's arm intimately and patiently listen to her stories from the past.
At first glance, Concubine Xie and Wen Nuannuan seemed as close as real mother and daughter.
"You kid, you just know how to talk!"
"I am old—"
Concubine Xie didn't know why she fell in love with a little girl she met for the first time.
Indeed, the other party saved himself.
But, she is the honorable concubine, and it is an honor for these untouchables to be able to save her.
Are you crazy to talk about favors with the royal family?
Concubine Xie herself was once what she called a "pariah", but she is different now.
She is the noble person who is high above everyone else.
Therefore, she would not treat a commoner girl differently just for saving her life or something like that.
But she still fell in love with Wen Nuan Nuan at first sight. She thought the child had a kind face and liked her at first sight.
Wen Nuan Nuan: ...Thank you system for lighting up my charm value.
Although she is not yet as charming as a Mary Sue, as long as she works hard, completes tasks well, and earns points as soon as possible, she will be able to exchange them for enough charm points.
One day, she will become the real "group darling"!
The emperor, the empress dowager...all the civil and military officials in the court will fall in love with her.
"old?"
Wen Nuannuan's eyes widened, and she looked Concubine Xie up and down a bit inappropriately: "How are you old?"
Wen Nuannuan was not acting this time, but was very sincere and heartfelt.
Because she really didn't think Concubine Xie was old.
Concubine Xie was only about thirty-five or thirty-six years old. In later times, she could still be a single and free-spirited young lady.
How is it related to the word "old"?
Concubine Xie was stunned for a moment. Although she was incredibly stupid and confused in the eyes of the bigwigs, she herself was not really that stupid.
After all, she has been struggling in the harem for more than 20 years, so she should at least know how to read people's expressions.
Concubine Xie could tell at a glance that the little girl in front of her was speaking from the heart.
Does she really not think I'm old?
Do you really think I'm good-looking?
This realization made Concubine Xie very happy.
Concubine Xie, who was very self-deprecating at heart, felt such sincere "admiration" for the first time!
Although her initial liking was somewhat baffling, at this moment, Concubine Xie felt that she really liked this outspoken and quick-witted little girl.
"You're going to be a grandmother, aren't you old?"
Concubine Xie was delighted, but she had to say something against her will.
"grandmother?"
Wen Nuannuan was stunned for a moment. She had almost forgotten that this was not the modern world she was familiar with, but an imaginary dynasty.
In ancient times, girls would get married and have children when they were fifteen or sixteen years old, and become grandmothers when they were in their thirties!
"...Even though you're going to be a grandmother, you're not old! You're still so beautiful!"
Wen Nuannuan quickly found her voice and continued to praise sincerely.
"Oh, kid, you only know how to make me happy!"
Concubine Xie was so amused that she couldn't stop laughing.
The laughter reached outside the carriage, and Gu Qingcheng and Min Huang in the front carriage heard it.
Gu Qingcheng: ...He is indeed true to his nature and heartless. He was frightened just now, but he can "recover as before" so quickly.
Min Huang: ...Mother, do you like Wen Nuannuan so much?
Is there really no connection between them?
