Chapter 161 is a trouble
Feng Qing and A Yan exchanged a glance, and A Yan turned and walked out of the pavilion, saying, "The young lady is not feeling well today, I'll go see her."
The maid followed Ah Yan with her head down, crossed the curved corridor, passed through the hanging flower gate and came to the reception hall in the front yard.
Xueqing stood in the middle of the flower hall. When she heard footsteps outside, she immediately turned around.
Seeing that it was A Yan coming, Xue Qing's expression changed slightly.
"Miss Xueqing, my daughter has been feeling unwell these past two days. If you have anything to say, just tell me." A Yan walked in and said with a smile.
Xue Qing clearly sensed Ah Yan's distance, so she politely asked, "My wife just wanted to ask about Miss Feng Qing's recent situation."
"The situation is naturally proceeding according to Miss Wen Zi's previous plan." A Yan responded calmly.
Xueqing heard this, but didn't dare to ask any further.
Ah Yan's meaning was very clear. While proceeding according to the previous plan, he also mentioned Wen Zi, which meant that Feng Qing and Shangguan Yao did not have much friendship.
Shangguan Yao has been coming to Youqing Tower to inquire about news again and again, which is a bit excessive.
"In that case, I'm relieved." Xue Qing nodded: "Goodbye."
Ah Yan stared at Xue Qing as she walked past him and said, "Miss Xue Qing."
Xueqing stopped and looked sideways at Ayan.
Ah Yan smiled faintly: "Go back and tell your wife that my daughter took on this job because of Miss Wen Zi. Now she is still dealing with it because she wants Miss Wen Zi to die with peace of mind. As for how things develop, your wife should not interfere too much."
"After all, the charming young lady in Youqing Tower is not your wife's subordinate. What do you think, Miss Xueqing?" Ah Yan said meaningfully with his eyes curved.
Xue Qing was stunned for a moment, then she laughed, "Miss Yan is right, we have overstepped our bounds."
"Then I won't send Miss Xueqing off." After Ah Yan nodded, he raised his eyes again and looked at Xueqing provocatively.
Xueqing clenched her hands, took a deep breath, and walked out of the house.
Ah Yan watched Xue Qing walk away and said, "What a jerk! How dare you come to You Qing Lou and give me orders?"
Xueqing pursed her lips and walked out of Youqing Tower, and saw Shangguan Yao getting out of the carriage.
"Madam?" Xue Qing's eyes flashed with surprise. She stepped forward to support Shangguan Yao. "Madam, why are you here?"
Shangguan Yao glanced at Xueqing's face, then paused for a moment on the plaque of Youqing Tower. She said, "Didn't you just go in? Why are you out so soon?"
Xue Qing thought about what Ah Yan had just said. Seeing Shangguan Yao about to enter Youqing Tower, she stood in front of her and said, "Madam, are you going in?"
"No?" Shangguan Yao looked at Xueqing's expression and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
"Madam..." Xue Qing hesitated to speak, then lowered her eyes: "Miss Fengqing is not feeling well, I didn't see her."
Shangguan Yao seemed to notice something was wrong with Xue Qing. She raised her eyebrows and asked, "Were you bullied?"
"No." Xue Qing shook her head. "It's just that Miss Feng Qing doesn't seem to like me asking. The maidservant beside her just told me that the plan with Miss Wen Zi went very smoothly, but that was because of their friendship. She approached the Xie family. What she meant was that we can't ask again and again. Miss Feng Qing is not your subordinate, Madam."
"Is that so?" Shangguan Yao's eyes flashed with a hint of smile after hearing this: "So, we can't ask anymore, right?"
Xueqing nodded.
Shangguan Yao gently pushed aside Xue Qing who was blocking her way, looked inside Fengqing Tower, and chuckled, "Xie Jing, who is only close to Wen Zi?"
After saying that, Shangguan Yao walked directly towards Youqing Tower.
There was panic in Xue Qing's eyes. She immediately stepped forward and followed: "Madam, let's not go. Now that Miss Wen Zi is not here, this Miss Feng Qing will definitely not give you any face."
"As someone trying to survive in this brothel, do you think she'll be willing to obey Wen Zi just because she's just talking about friendship?" Shangguan Yao sneered, "Since you've accepted Wen Zi's favors, you still want to look down on me from a high position?"
As Shangguan Yao spoke, she walked directly into Youqing Tower, with Xueqing following closely behind her.
Ah Yan, who was still standing on the corridor, changed her expression slightly when she saw Xue Qing and Shangguan Yao appear again, and she walked towards the courtyard.
Although it is possible to make some things clear to Xueqing, Shangguan Yao is different after all, even if Wen Zi is dead.
Behind Shangguan Yao is the Yongyi Marquis Mansion.
"Mrs. Qin." A Yan walked forward and bowed.
Shangguan Yao looked Ah Yan up and down with a forced smile: "I heard from the girl next to me that your master is not feeling well?"
"Yes, the girl has been feeling a little unwell these days." A Yan said truthfully.
Shangguan Yao snorted and laughed: "Since I'm here, I must go and see your daughter. You won't stop me, right?"
Upon hearing this, Ah Yan's expression changed slightly. "Madam Qin, I will definitely not stop you. It's just that our daughter is indeed unwell and it's not suitable for her to see guests. Most importantly, I'm worried that she will pass her illness on to you, Madam."
Shangguan Yao raised her eyebrows and stared at A Yan deeply.
A Yan didn't dare to look directly into Shangguan Yao's eyes and slowly lowered his head.
"Now that you've said that, I should go and see her." Shangguan Yao met Xue Qing's gaze while speaking, and added, "After all, she's someone Wen Zi has some connections with, and she's still working for me. It would be a shame if I didn't go and see Miss Feng Qing."
Ah Yan's expression darkened, and his tone became stronger: "Madam Qin, you also said that my daughter has some friendship with Miss Wen Zi, but not with you. Putting aside the fact that my daughter is not feeling well, even if my daughter is well, it is natural for her to not want to see you. Why is Madam Qin so aggressive?"
"When has my wife ever been so aggressive?" Xue Qing scolded coldly, "Is your daughter willing to work for Wen Zi just because of her friendship with her? Since she has accepted Wen Zi's benefits, she should do her job properly. Don't think that just because Wen Zi is dead, the matter is over."
"What do you mean!" Ah Yan's face turned cold and he was about to call for help.
A charming voice rang out from the other corner: "Ayan, you are a guest, so don't be rude."
Seeing this, A Yan glared at Xue Qing fiercely and walked towards Feng Qing.
Feng Qing also walked towards this side.
Shangguan Yao was sizing up the woman Xie Rongying was talking about, and thinking of Xie Rongying's explanation, she raised the corners of her lips slightly: "Miss Fengqing doesn't seem to be feeling uncomfortable. She probably doesn't want to see me and my girl anymore."
Feng Qing stood under the eaves, looking at Shangguan Yao with a smile: "Since Madam Qin has said this, let's be frank. You are indeed not welcome here."
She stared at Shangguan Yao without blinking, not at all afraid that Shangguan Yao would reveal the fact that she was close to Xie Jing.
Feng Qing knew that this would only be trouble for Shangguan Yao, and even if Xie Jing heard about it, he would not believe it.
