Fu Lingtian nodded: "Yes, what I say will certainly be effective."
"You two brothers have helped me, and I will ask the Emperor to be lenient with you. You may leave now."
"Yes, thank you, sir."
After dealing with this matter, it was almost dinnertime, and Wen Jinghao, as the villainous female lead, still had to put on a show.
But she never expected that someone would turn the tables on her!
"Li Quanzi, go and call everyone to come eat."
"Okay."
Xuexin followed Fu Lingtian into the courtyard. The two chatted and laughed, acting more like the owners of the house.
Upon seeing Wen Jinghao, she took her place as a concubine.
"I'm afraid I'll have to nag Sister Jinghao a lot these next few days."
I've heard that Sister Jinghao is a great cook, and I'd like to try some too, hehe.
She spoke in a tone as if she were an ordinary person, smiling subtly, but inside she was extremely smug.
"Brother Lingtian, Xuexin is a little thirsty. I heard you have some excellent tea."
I wonder if Xuexin will ever have the chance to try it. Ah, if it's too much trouble, then forget it.
"Sister Jinghao, I wonder if Xuexin would be interested in having your tea?"
Wen Jinghao suddenly looked up and stared at the seemingly deep-seated dead woman.
To an outsider, the casual tone might have seemed like a simple question. But to Wen Jinghao, the villain, it was a huge provocation!
What does this mean? Has the "white lotus" and "green tea bitch" appeared?
What?
Is this the treatment, or benefits, for time travelers?
"Jinghao, pour Xuexin a cup of tea. She's not feeling well and it's not very convenient for her. Thank you for your hard work."
Wen Jinghao bit her lower lip, looking down at Fu Lingtian as if she couldn't believe what he was saying.
After a while, she took another teacup from the table, and poured the tea that she had just wanted to give to Fu Lingtian into Xue Xin's cup.
Wen Meiren's face turned pale; her young body couldn't withstand his blow, and she became unsteady on her feet.
Holding the cup tightly, she handed it to Xuexin, forcing a smile, "Little sister, try the tea your older sister brewed, how about it?"
She secretly vowed to herself, "This woman who appeared out of nowhere, I'll remember her!"
As long as I live, I will avenge this humiliation!
"Um!"
"This tea is indeed a top-grade tea. No wonder Sister is so favored by Brother Lingtian."
"So many talents! Xuexin is not so talented, but she'd like to learn. She just doesn't know if her older sister would be willing to teach her."
Xue Xin blinked her bright, flawless eyes and stared at Wen Jinghao, but a fleeting look of disdain flashed across her face.
Not satisfied with such humiliation, how dare she even dream of teaching her the ways of tea ceremony and maidservant in the future?
Doesn't this mean she also wants to be the lady of the house?
Let her in? No way! Humph!
"Why isn't sister saying anything? Did Xuexin say something wrong?"
"Brother Ling Tian, I...I...I'm sorry..."
Fu Lingtian didn't defend Wen Jinghao; instead, he picked up a piece of the side dish next to him and started eating.
The only way to keep Li Yan occupied now is to appease Xuexin and prevent him from escaping, so as not to alert him!
"Jinghao, what's wrong? Are you hungry? Let me get you a piece of meat."
"Ah, no need, Ling Tian, I'm not hungry. I was just catching my breath. It's just a small thing like teaching my sister how to appreciate tea."
Of course, no problem! Just relax and stay here. Your older sister will teach you properly!
The servants were stunned. This woman, who was usually arrogant and domineering and wanted to monopolize favor, actually gave a hard time because of a maid.
