Chapter 454 She is poisonous!

Yu Mingzhu is only twelve years old this year, not too old. She has bright eyes and a gentle gaze, and her delicate skin, which has been nurtured with the efforts of the entire Xin Guo Mansion, is particularly eye-catching among a group of noble ladies.

She turned her head and talked to another girl who was hugging her: "Rui Rui, my elder brother gave me a box of beauty cream from the Western Regions during the New Year. I heard that it is very effective in removing scars. I will ask the maid to open my dressing box and bring it to you later. Girls are delicate and tender, how can they bear scars?"

The girl named "Rui Rui" was so moved that she choked up. She said excitedly: "Mingzhu, do you remember the time I fell last year? ... That was a tribute, and a gift from your elder brother. I can't accept it."

Others also advised: "Yes, this is too expensive."

Yu Mingzhu looked a little distressed: "But, Ruirui's scar..."

The girl named Rui Rui was even more moved, and quickly waved her hand to decline: "Don't worry, it's just a little on my leg, it's no problem. I can't accept such a valuable thing. Otherwise, what will others say about me?" She was moved to tears, "Mingzhu, you treat me too well."

Yu Mingzhu said softly, "I've got it - that box of plaster is very big, how about this, I'll ask the maid to take out some from a small box and give it to you!"

The girl named "Rui Rui" tried to refuse, but Yu Mingzhu pretended to be unhappy: "Rui Rui, you are so distant, do you not consider me a friend?"

The girl named Ruirui then accepted it with tears in her eyes and full of gratitude.

The girls surrounding Yu Mingzhu all showed envious looks and praised her for how well she treated Ruirui.

Xingxing was twisting a piece of snack in the corner and sipping it. Looking at the scene in front of her, she thought to herself, Sister Lou is right, this young lady is really good at being a good person.

Yu Mingzhu was like the moon surrounded by stars, and was praised by a bunch of young ladies.

Bai Huanqin also came in from outside. When Yu Mingzhu saw Bai Huanqin, she immediately greeted her warmly and called out "Qinqin".

Bai Huanqin looked a little bad when he came in, but when he saw Yu Mingzhu, his expression calmed down a little and he called out "Mingzhu".

Yu Mingzhu stepped forward and took Bai Huanqin's arm, saying affectionately, "I haven't seen you for a long time. I see that you seem to have lost some weight."

Bai Huanqin curled the corners of his mouth: "Yes, a little."

Yu Mingzhu was a little surprised. She looked at Bai Huanqin's face and asked, "Qinqin, why do you look unhappy? Who bullied you?"

Bai Huanqin's eyes moved slightly, and he looked around the room, finally falling on Xingxing.

Xing Xing: “…”

Wait, no?

However, just as Xingxing thought, Bai Huanqin pulled the corner of his mouth towards Xingxing, revealing a smile that could be described as vicious, which disappeared in a flash.

Then, Bai Huanqin raised his arm and pointed at Xingxing: "Yes, someone bullied me, that person over there."

Everyone looked towards Xing Xing.

Xing Xing, who was still chewing her cakes slowly: "..."

She swallowed the cake in her mouth and wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief.

Someone naturally recognized Xing Xing and whispered to the people around him: "...that little girl seems to be the sister of General Zhenxi..."

Yu Mingzhu looked at Xingxing.

Instinctively, she didn't like this little girl at first sight.

This little girl was born delicate and soft, with round almond eyes, bright red lips, and a small and high nose. She looked the least offensive.

Her skin was as white and tender as the tofu soup made from goat milk. She wore a ruby ​​hairpin on her head. Although the ruby ​​was not big, its color was so deep that it seemed as if the brightest red was sealed in the ruby ​​- it was obvious that she was a darling raised at home.

But Yu Mingzhu didn't know why, from the first sight, she instinctively disliked this little girl.

But there were many people around at this time, so Yu Mingzhu just smiled and asked Bai Huanqin: "Qinqin, are you kidding? She looks very well behaved, how could she bully you?"

Bai Huanqin sneered: "Some people appear to be well-behaved on the surface, but are actually full of bad intentions!"

She raised her voice slightly again, "And you, stay away from her too. Not only is she evil-minded, she's really poisonous!"

As soon as these words were spoken, several little girls who were closer to Xingxing took a few steps back in fear.

Xing Xing sat there all alone. She was a sweet, bright little girl, but at first glance she looked like a ferocious monster that people wanted to avoid.

The maidservant beside Xingxing was so angry that her face turned red. She was holding the cloak that Xingxing had just taken off because she felt too hot. The fur edges of the cloak were trembling slightly.

But Xingxing didn't say anything at this moment, and the maid didn't dare to go up and scold her, for fear of causing trouble for her own lady.

Yu Mingzhu looked inquiringly, "Oh? Is it poisonous?"

Bai Huanqin nodded decisively.

She just saw that the little bitch still had her sachet hanging around her waist - at that time in that remote place, the little bitch took out the poison from the sachet around her waist, which almost made her unable to live or die!

Yu Mingzhu walked forward slowly, looking like she wanted to talk to Xingxing, but was stopped by the girls around her. They whispered anxiously, "Mingzhu, don't go over there! Didn't you hear Huanqin say that she is poisoned?"

Yu Mingzhu stopped in her tracks and looked at Xingxing calmly: "——Just now I heard from others that you are the sister of General Zhenxi?"

Xing Xingsi was not at all nervous, instead she smiled and said, "That's right."

Yu Mingzhu looked apologetic and said softly, "Miss Yu, Qinqin said you were poisoned... Today is my birthday party, and all the guests are noble ladies. Could you please hand over the poison? It would be bad if it hurts others."

Everyone looked at Xing Xing nervously.

Xing Xing tilted her head slightly, and her voice was clear and sweet with a hint of icing sugar, which was very pleasant to the ear - but her words made many people present change their expressions slightly:

"Miss Yu has no basis at all, and she has concluded that I have poison in my body. I am here to celebrate Miss Yu's birthday. Is this how Miss Yu treats guests?"

Xing Xing's tone was very calm, without any questioning in her voice.

But even if it was not meant as a question, this statement was still a question to Yu Mingzhu.

Yu Mingzhu's expression also changed slightly, and then she smiled with a lenient look, as if she didn't mind Xingxing saying that. She sighed and said, "Qinqin would never say that to you for no reason..."

"So, I would bring poison to someone else's birthday party for no reason?" Xing Xing asked sincerely, "Ms. Yu, if you trust Bai Huanqin so much and believe whatever she says, then why not let Bai Huanqin post invitations and select guests for you in the future?"
