Chapter 12 Shi Xiaoya wore bad clothes and was spotted by King Zhou
The news that the eldest princess had sent a private letter to Jiang Yunzheng reached Shi Tianyi's ears when he returned home.
Ishida specifically told Qin that Jiang Yunzheng came from a humble family and had never been to a big event, so she must make sure to check Jiang Yunzheng's attire tomorrow.
Qin had no choice but to agree with gritted teeth.
Jiang Yunzheng, Jiang Yunzheng...
How can a dying person still cause such trouble?
But it was too late to go to the garment shop to make clothes, so Qin had no choice but to send a message to Shi Xiaoya to send a set of clothes to Jiang Yunzheng.
Shi Xiaoya was just about to try on the new clothes when she heard the maid's words.
With a click—
The sound of fabric tearing was very obvious, and Shi Xiaoya's face froze. Has she gained weight?
The little maid repeated Qin's words tremblingly.
Jinxiulou had previously sent over four sets of ready-made clothing. The shimmering butterfly dress that just broke was Shi Xiaoya's favorite. As for the remaining three sets...
Shi Xiaoya, you don’t want to give me any!
"Third Miss, Jinxiu Tower just sent over another set. How about I give that set to the young lady?"
Shi Xiaoya rolled her eyes around and gave a few instructions to her personal maid.
"Go find the embroiderer in the mansion..."
"Miss, this is not good, right?"
"Just do it if I tell you to! Jiang Yunzheng wants to be in the spotlight, so I'll let her do whatever she wants!"
Qihuaju.
Hongyu was overwhelmed with joy as she swept away her previous gloom. But after a while, she frowned and started pacing around the wardrobe.
Jiang Yunzheng was casually flipping through a medical book on the couch. He glanced at the dark blue robe in Hongyu's hand and said with a smile, "Aren't these all good?"
Hongyu stamped her feet and exclaimed, "Young Madam, how about I go out and buy some now?"
Ever since the Qin family took over the family business, they didn't dare to withhold money from Qihuaju and Qingfengyuan openly, but the utensils and clothes sent to the two courtyards were all the leftovers from the Qin family.
The fabrics and dresses in the closet are all so dull and old-fashioned. If I wear them outside, won’t people laugh at me?
Hongyu was still a little girl after all, and seeing the young lady sitting still, she couldn't help feeling anxious.
After Qin's people took two sets of clothes from Shi Xiaoya, they hurried to Qingfengyuan, but accidentally ran into Shi Jingtao's people who were also delivering clothes to Qingfengyuan by the lake.
When the two collided, the clothes fell to the ground.
Several maids hurriedly folded their clothes and came to Qingfeng Courtyard together.
In the chaos, no one noticed that two dresses had been swapped.
Shi Xiaoya's aquamarine robe fell into the hands of Shi Jingtao's maid; Shi Jingtao's skylight green robe fell into the hands of Shi Xiaoya's maid.
Shi Jingtao's people sent a Xiangfei-colored dress and a water-blue robe, while Shi Xiaoya sent a flowing butterfly skirt and a skylight green dress.
At first glance, the colors of the water blue and skylight blue are similar, both are light blue.
Jiang Yunzheng only glanced at it and casually pointed at the skylight blue dress in the hands of Shi Xiaoya's maid, "Let's take this one."
Shi Xiaoya's maid suddenly smiled secretly, "Young Madam, are you sure about this?"
Jiang Yunzheng twitched the corner of his mouth, "Of course."
After the group left, Hongyu hung up the clothes excitedly.
Jiang Yunzheng: "Leave it there, I won't wear it."
Hongyu exclaimed, "Young Madam, why?"
In the past, the eldest princess often said that Xu Jingyang looked good in blue, but Jiang Yunzheng was completely different from Xu Jingyang.
She wants to avoid it.
Hongyu didn't give up and asked again, "Then why do you want to stay?"
Jiang Yunzheng smiled and said, "Let's see what the Third Miss is up to."
On the other side, Shi Xiaoya was walking in the yard. When she saw her maid coming back with a set of clothes, she knew that the matter was almost successful.
After a while, Shi Jingtao's maid came to Shi Xiaoya's yard.
"Miss Third, these are the clothes that the Second Young Master sent. He said if you like any of them, please keep them."
Shi Xiaoya stayed there doubtfully. After the others left, she heard that the two sets of items Shi Jingtao had just sent to Qingfengyuan were the ones she wanted.
Shi Xiaoya immediately threw the clothes to the ground, "What do you mean, second brother? I can only use what Jiang Yunzheng left over?"
The room was silent for a moment, and all the maids were so frightened that they said nothing.
But the remaining four sets of clothes were a little small, and it was too late to modify them temporarily.
She was wearing the right clothes two days ago, why did she gain weight today?
The maid suggested, "Miss Third, why don't you try Second Young Master's aqua blue suit?"
Shi Xiaoya frowned and tried it on, but unexpectedly it fit her perfectly.
-
The next morning.
Shi Tian and Shi Jingtao were in the same carriage, while Qin, Jiang Yunzheng and Shi Xiaoya were in a separate carriage.
Shi Xiaoya was in a very good mood today. She was very happy when she thought that Jiang Yunzheng would make a fool of herself today. But the smile soon froze on her face when she saw a thin and frail figure appear not far away.
Today Jiang Yunzheng officially left the Shi Mansion. She put on some rouge on her face, which made her look much more energetic than usual. Her makeup was not conspicuous, but it made her originally dull facial features seem to glow.
But what made Shi Xiaoya even more angry was that Jiang Yunzheng didn't wear the clothes she had prepared in advance!
Jiang Yunzheng was wearing a mulberry yellow dress today. She had found it at the bottom of a box last night. It was made for her by Song two years ago when she was still in good spirits. It was elegant and dignified, with a slightly drooping goose neck, revealing a slender and white neck.
Qin just glanced at Jiang Yunzheng lightly, adjusted the hairpin in her bun, and said sarcastically: "Oh, Yunzheng looks so beautiful today."
Jiang Yunzheng took in the expressions of the few people, and said calmly, "Not as charming as Madam Qin."
Shi Xiaoya glared at Jiang Yunzheng and asked, "Why aren't you wearing the clothes I gave you yesterday?"
Jiang Yunzheng casually made up an excuse: "The clothes that the Third Miss sent were a little too big, and there was no time to make them smaller, so I wore my old clothes."
Shi Xiaoya was skeptical: "Really?"
Jiang Yunzheng smiled: "Of course."
Glancing at Jiang Yunzheng's waist, Shi Xiaoya immediately thought of the two circles of fat on her own waist, and her heart ached. She quickly comforted herself that Jiang Yunzheng was completely sick and she didn't care about her.
However, her plan for today could not be realized. Shi Xiaoya glared at Jiang Yunzheng fiercely and left the house first.
Just before getting on the carriage, Shi Jingtao couldn't help but glance at the carriage of the women in front.
Ishida asked, "Tao'er, what's wrong?"
Shi Jingtao pursed his lips and said, "Sister-in-law seems to be in much better health recently."
Ishida stroked his beard, pondered for a moment, and asked, "I just don't know why the eldest princess sent a letter to your sister-in-law alone."
Shi Jingtao lowered his eyes and shook his head.
He just felt that something was slowly slipping away, beyond his control.
