Chapter 94
The garden has a beautiful environment, with a fountain and rockery nearby. Various koi carp swim happily in the water, and occasionally leap out of the water, splashing up a pool of water.
The flowers, plants, and trees along the pond are styled in unique ways, with a wide variety of species to ensure that there are always flowers in full bloom, in every season.
The fragrance of flowers wafts through the air, a gentle breeze rustles through the leaves, and the sound of dripping water adds to the symphony of nature's most beautiful music.
As expected of the renowned Lianfang Garden, the fountain, the rockery, and the unique varieties of flowering trees are all sights that many people have never heard of or seen before.
The guests were full of amazement, breathing in the fresh air and admiring the elegant scenery, and Rong Rong was also captivated by it.
Although she had seen all sorts of gardens in modern times, Lianfang Garden had its own unique beauty.
Moreover, Rongrong hadn't had a chance to relax in a long time, and this made her feel refreshed and much more comfortable.
Rong Rong looked relaxed, and she was the most eye-catching person in the crowd.
Not only did she always wear a veil, but also because Marquis Jiangyang, Xie Tianrui, sat with her every step of the way.
Looking around, only Rong Rong and Xie Tianrui were sitting there so disregarding etiquette.
Even if other people are married, there is no reason for men and women to sit at the same table.
Ironically, no one could say anything, because Rong Rong sat obediently in her seat, while it was Jiang Yanghou who shamelessly followed along.
People frequently glanced in Rong Rong and Xie Tianrui's direction, some with surprise, some with envy, some with disapproval, and some with disdain.
The Marquis of Jiangyang's clingy and doting manner clearly showed how much he loved her, making many people's teeth ache and causing some young ladies to grit their teeth in secret resentment.
Originally, these young ladies didn't take Rongrong seriously. She was just an orphan. The Marquis of Jiangyang was currently in the throes of passion after marrying her, and he would abandon her at any time once the novelty wore off.
Only those with strong maternal clan support like them are the right choice for Marquis Jiangyang, and only they can permanently secure the position of Marquis's wife.
But now it seems that Jiang Yanghou's novelty will last for quite some time, and Xie Tianrui's appreciation for people far exceeds their imagination.
With his thick skin, Xie Tianrui ignored the stares of those around him and calmly sat down next to Rong Rong, diligently serving her tea and water, and occasionally offering her a piece of snack or fruit.
It definitely gives off the vibe of a wicked concubine and a tyrannical emperor.
Rong Rong remained calm and composed. She was long used to being taken care of and to all kinds of gazes.
Princess Changning looked at this place from afar, her eyes shining.
Although Rong Rong was wearing a veil, Princess Changning could still tell that Rong Rong was exceptionally beautiful.
Moreover, she found it very satisfying to watch Xie Tianrui get carried away with people.
She once had a good impression of Xie Tianrui and even took the initiative to talk to him, but Xie Tianrui was very indifferent, ignoring her and giving her a cold face, which was very disrespectful.
If Xie Tianrui weren't so powerful and untouchable, she would have already arranged for someone to teach him a lesson.
Now, seeing Xie Tianrui's eager and earnest demeanor, while his wife remained indifferent to him, it's truly satisfying!
You think you're so high and mighty, so self-important, but you still end up falling for a woman one day, don't you? You deserve to experience what it's like to be treated coldly!
Princess Changning was delighted, but Mu Fangfang, sitting next to her, had a gloomy expression.
Compared to Xie Tianrui's attitude towards her a few days ago, even when they were in Baijia Village, Xie Tianrui was aloof and cold. Looking at him now, Mu Fangfang felt a pang of pain in her heart.
The difference was so great that she couldn't suppress her resentment and jealousy.
Especially when she saw Rong Rong being raised like a celestial maiden descended to earth, dressed in gorgeous cloud brocade robes, with skin as smooth as jade, and lively and charming eyes and brows.
She was completely different from the orphan girl from Baijia Village.
How could Mu Fangfang not hate?
If it weren't for that accident, she should have been the one being pampered and spoiled like this!
"Your friend is indeed a great beauty. I really want to see what she looks like under her veil!" Princess Changning laughed. "Fangfang, have you seen her?"
"Since you're friends, why don't you take me over and introduce us?"
Mu Fangfang felt a lump in her throat. How could she possibly offer Rong Rong connections? Rong Rong deserved to be isolated and despised by everyone!
Mu Fangfang forced a troubled smile. "I'm afraid that won't work."
"Why?" Princess Changning asked curiously.
Their conversation attracted the attention of many ladies and young women around them, who all turned to look at them.
Mu Fangfang bit her lip, pretending to be sad, "She hates me and even pushed me down the mountain."
"Push you?" A shrill voice suddenly broke in. "So vicious? Does the Marquis know?"
"If we had known, we certainly wouldn't have fallen in love with this venomous woman! We should tell the Marquis!"
These words made Mu Fangfang's heart clench again, and the sad expression on her face almost crumbled. Of course Xie Tianrui knew, how could he not know? Knowing yet still protecting that woman, that's what's most infuriating!
“He knows.” Mu Fangfang gritted her teeth.
"Impossible!" the man exclaimed, his face filled with indignation. "The Marquis would never fall in love with a woman like that!"
"Perhaps Rong Rong did something to Marquis Jiangyang," Mu Fangfang offered an explanation, but her smile was forced.
"How so?"
"After she pushed me down the mountain, she went to the Marquis's side to take care of him. Perhaps it was because of this kindness that the Marquis treated her so specially."
"This is clearly stealing your credit!"
This made even more people indignant and they felt sorry for Mu Fangfang.
"She doesn't deserve the Marquis's love; she's malicious and opportunistic!"
Everyone echoed in agreement, while Princess Changning quietly clicked her tongue in amazement.
That Lady Hou was so vicious, yet Marquis Jiangyang still fawned over her and loved her. I never expected Marquis Jiangyang to be so unprincipled!
Not far away, some people in the men's section also heard the conversation.
"Has Lord Xie lost his mind?" someone exclaimed incredulously. "He might die at this woman's hands one day, and we wouldn't even know it!"
With a swish, Yu Yingyan opened the folding fan in his hand, raising a cynical smile, "A woman like this must not be sincere towards Lord Xie. Why don't I save Lord Xie from this misery?"
"How can you save her?" asked a bystander, puzzled.
Yu Yingyan covered half of his face with the fan in his hand, leaving only his bright eyes visible. "Of course, it's to let Lord Xie discover the true face of this venomous woman."
Yu Yingyan's voice was tinged with laughter, as if he were simply being playful, but there was a coldness in his eyes that no one who wasn't familiar with him could tell.
"Are you going to get involved yourself?" someone exclaimed urgently.
"I am not talented; all I have to offer is my physical appearance!" Yu Yingyan twirled her folding fan, lightly fanning herself twice in front of her chest, causing her hair to flutter and making her androgynous face even more dazzling.
He was tall and elegant, with a smiling face; he was truly dashing and exceptionally handsome.
Everyone was momentarily stunned, secretly alarmed.
Even though they were all men, they were still captivated by Yu Yingyan's beauty. When they came to their senses, they burst into laughter, as if they could already see the ugly sight of Lady Jiangyang being infatuated with Yu Yingyan.
"You're truly something, Brother Yu!"
"Hurry! Let's wait and see!"
......
Everyone was excited, except for Lou Boshan, who frowned.
"Are you sure it's for Lord Xie?" Lou Boshan's face was cold, and his voice was serious. "Don't do anything pointless."
