Chapter 160 Making the Most of Everything
Xie Rongying stayed in Madam Xie's Shi'an Hall for about a cup of tea before leaving the Xie Mansion.
Old Madam Xie did not stay long, but gave Xie Rongying a lot of advice.
Similar to the story of Xie Jing and the youngest daughter of the Feng family.
After hearing those words, Xie Rongying became more and more convinced that the woman in Youqing Tower was not from the Feng family.
After getting on the carriage, Xie Rongying thought of the fake Shangguan Yao in the Yongyi Marquis's mansion.
"Miss, is the master really no longer keeping an eye on us?" Dongxue asked.
Xie Rongying responded calmly: "No need to stare. Since father wants to do that, let him do it."
"What if something happens?" Dongxue was a little worried about Xie Jing's situation.
Xie Rongying glanced sideways and sneered, "If something goes wrong, it will be his retribution."
When Dongxue and Cuizhi heard the word "retribution", they were both startled.
Xie Rongying glanced at the two of them, leaned against the table, and closed her eyes. She said softly, "Even if he is my father, I must respect his fate."
She knew that repeatedly interfering with Xie Jing's decisions would only make their relationship more strained.
It would be better to let Xie Jing do as he wishes.
When Dongxue and the others saw Xie Rongying close her eyes, they knew that Xie Rongying didn't want to speak anymore. After they looked at each other, the carriage became quiet.
About half an hour later, the carriage stopped in front of the gate of the Yongyi Marquis's Mansion.
After Xie Rongying got off the carriage, she asked, "Has the young marquis been busy with the Jiang family's affairs these past few days?"
"Yes, Uncle Jiang confessed his crime, Wang was imprisoned, and the wife of Marquis Dingguo was unwilling to give up. The funeral of Old Madam Jiang was only handled by the young marquis. Only then did the wife of Marquis Dingguo calm down." Cuizhi said.
Xie Rongying heard this and said calmly, "It seems that the Xie family's caravan will have to wait until Qin Junyi has dealt with the Jiang family's affairs before leaving Bianjing."
After entering the Yongyi Marquis' Mansion, Xie Rongying did not go to the East Garden.
Instead, he went to Linfeng Garden.
Along the way, Cuizhi and Dongxue didn't dare to ask too many questions. They always felt that their girl had something on her mind.
As soon as he stepped into the Chuihua Gate of Linfeng Garden, he saw Xueqing in the courtyard looking at Xie Rongying cautiously.
Xue Qing put down the work in her hands and bowed, "Young Madam."
"Is your wife here?" Xie Rongying asked.
Xue Qing still couldn't forget the bloody sight of the guards around Xie Rongying. She immediately said, "He's inside. I'll go and inform them right away."
After saying that, he turned and walked towards the main house.
After a while, Xue Qing walked out of the main house and said, "Young Madam, the young lady invites you in."
Xie Rongying said to Cuizhi and Dongxue beside her: "You wait here."
"yes."
Xie Rongying walked into the main house, and Xueqing followed behind her.
"Young Madam, the Young Madam is here."
Shangguan Yao, who was leaning against a table on a soft couch in the inner room, watched Xie Rongying walk in. Seeing that there was no maid following her, she said to Xueqing, "Xueqing, please go out first."
Although Xue Qing was worried, she still said respectfully, "Yes."
Xie Rongying looked sideways at Xueqing as she walked out of the inner room and said, "Close the door."
Xueqing stopped and looked back at Shangguan Yao.
Shangguan Yao nodded.
Xueqing then walked out and closed the door.
Shangguan Yao didn't stand up. Instead, she looked at Xie Rongying with a smile and patted the empty seat beside her: "Young Madam, sit down."
Xie Rongying sat down next to Shangguan Yao with a calm expression.
"I wonder what Young Madam wants to talk to me about?" Shangguan Yao propped up her chin and stared at Xie Rongying with a smile: "Or is it that Young Madam can take action on the matter I mentioned last time?"
Xie Rongying chuckled: "Indeed, we can start now, but before we do, can you do me a favor?"
"What help?" Shangguan Yao was quite curious about what Xie Rongying could do that needed her help.
Xie Rongying then briefly recounted the incident in which Shangguan Yao and Wen Zi had arranged for the women of Youqing Tower to approach Xie Jing.
Shangguan Yao sat up straight upon hearing this and laughed deeply: "Is there such a thing?"
"So you want to get rid of the people around Shangguan Yao. Why not let me make full use of them before you do that? How about that?" Xie Rongying was sure that the fake Shangguan Yao in front of her would help.
"Okay." Shangguan Yao agreed readily: "Then what should I do?"
Xie Rongying smiled faintly: "Take Xueqing to Youqing Tower, and I will arrange the rest."
"Sure." Shangguan Yao put away the smile on her lips and asked casually, "Young Madam, are you always so meticulous in what you do?"
"Don't mistakes happen sometimes?" Xie Rongying snorted and laughed, mocking herself for being extremely cautious in every step, but something went wrong with her father.
The more I think about it, the more... unhappy I feel.
Xie Rongying stayed in Linfeng Garden for only a cup of tea before leaving.
After Xue Qing sent Xie Rongying away, she returned to the main house. Seeing Shangguan Yao's face was not very good, she went up to her and asked, "Madam, has the young lady given you a hard time again?"
Shangguan Yao asked, "Is there any progress at Youqing Tower?"
"I haven't gone to investigate these days, but judging from Miss Fengqing's methods, it should be about the same." Xueqing said.
Shangguan Yao said cautiously, "No, I'm worried. I have to go and ask in person."
"Madam, why don't you wait a few days, or I can go there myself." Xue Qing thought that Xie Rongying might have arranged for someone to keep an eye on Shangguan Yao: "You should stay in the mansion."
Shangguan Yao was silent for a moment: "In that case, you should go to Youqing Tower to see how she is doing."
"yes."
Shangguan Yao grabbed Xueqing's hand, raised her eyes and said cautiously, "Be careful when you go out, don't let anyone watch you."
"Madam, I understand." Xue Qing looked at the worry in Shangguan Yao's eyes and became more worried. "Young Marquis, please quickly deal with the Jiang family's affairs and take Madam away from Bianjing. Then I will be relieved."
"It will be soon. As long as everything goes well at Youqing Tower, there won't be any problems with Junyi." Shangguan Yao comforted.
Xue Qing nodded: "I will go right away."

In the evening, Youqing Tower.
Ah Yan brought the snacks he had just bought from Fanlou and placed them on the stone table in the pavilion. He said to Fengqing who was sitting there, "Miss, the silk and satin that Master Xie sent today is truly top-grade. Master Xie is truly very kind to you."
Before it was just silver, but after Feng Qing said her last name was Feng, Xie Jing sent her a lot of good things.
It's like making up for something.
However, Feng Qing's expression did not change much. She said, "I heard that Xie Jing's daughter was extremely unhappy with him for letting me into the Xie family."
Ah Yan smiled faintly: "Master Xie is the head of the Xie family. Her daughter is already married. How can she still control her family's affairs?"
"I heard Xie Jing's daughter is very capable." Feng Qing smiled playfully, "I'd like to meet her."
At this time, a maid stood outside the pavilion and respectfully announced: "Miss, Miss Xueqing is here."
