Shen Ajiao and Lin Daiyu exchanged a glance. This Princess Consort of Pingxi was not only hostile to the two of them, but also to her own daughter.
No way, no way, looking at Cui Baozhu, she's just a spoiled child at home?
Shen Ajiao laughed and said, "The way the princess praises her own children is really special. Isn't that making fun of us?"
Princess Consort of Pingxi then realized she had misspoke, quickly shut her mouth, and smiled, "I was just worried."
He quickly changed the subject, saying, "Mrs. Lin and Miss Lin seem to be doing well in Beijing. I haven't been here for so many years, and I find it quite dry."
Shen Ajiao chimed in, "Yes, it is very dry. Your Highness should definitely drink more water."
Whether it was because Shen Ajiao said a few good words for Cui Baozhu, or for some other reason, the originally aloof princess softened her demeanor and picked out a few interesting things to talk about.
"To be honest, I have come here today to ask you something."
Shen Ajiao said, "Please speak, Your Highness."
Princess Consort of Pingxi: "Has Baozhu told you about her marriage?"
Chen Ajiao paused, what did that mean?
Cui Baozhu left and then sold her out? No way, sister, she only took 10,000 taels of silver from her. Besides, she even forced that 10,000 taels of silver on her.
Isn't this like sitting at home and having a pot fall from the sky and hit you on the head?
No, she can't accept this black-faced dish.
She pulled out a handkerchief and covered her mouth, exclaiming in disbelief, "She's engaged?"
The Queen Consort of the West glanced at the expressions of Shen Ajiao and Lin Daiyu, which didn't seem fake, and shook her head with a smile, "No, they're just looking at each other."
"Do you have any good ideas? I know some people?" If I didn't know some people, why would you come to me?
Cui Baozhu only mentioned one, but now it might not be just one. Sure enough, the next second, she said, "Isn't this about asking Mrs. Lin to take a look at it for me?"
Should I check for you? Did you eat something stupid?
Shen Ajiao quickly mentally selected the junior high school students she knew. Could it be Gu Yuzhi? Zhou Shun? Huo Huaixi?
It's unlikely to be Huo Huaixi, so could it be Zhou Shun?
Gu Yu's family had arranged for him to meet potential partners some time ago, but they didn't know if any of them were suitable. Could it be him?
"Which handsome young man has the princess taken a fancy to?"
"In a way, Mrs. Lin and Miss Lin were classmates."
Shen Ajiao glanced at Lin Daiyu and had a premonition that the Princess Consort of Pingxi had taken a liking to Zhou Shun!
Her brother Hajime Soon!
However, Cui Baozhu had her eye on the son of the Governor-General of Fujian!
Are these two playing a double agent game with me?
Lin Daiyu sat with a smile on her face, listening to her mistress's inner complaints, and couldn't help but complain in return, "Infernal Affairs? So I'm the only one who doesn't know anything?"
"Oh, who is it? It's a truly auspicious match," Shen Ajiao said with a smile, looking at the Princess Consort of Pingxi. "The children in the academy are all excellent; their learning and character are top-notch."
Princess Consort of Pingxi smiled and said, "In that case, I am relieved."
Ah Jiao? Who have you taken a fancy to? What are you so worried about?
However, the Princess Consort of Pingxi did not reveal who it was, only saying that she would send an invitation to the Lin family after it was decided.
Chen Ajiao was so angry that she wanted to throw the Princess Consort of Pingxi out. She was really furious. This mother and daughter were such troublemakers!
"Make me a sign that says 'No Cui Baozhu or dogs allowed!'"
Lin Daiyu nodded, "It would be best to add the Princess Consort of the Prince of Pingxi!"
The next day, Zhou Shun came over, ostensibly to deliver New Year's gifts, but actually to inquire about news.
"Sister Ajiao, I heard that the Princess Consort of Pingxi came to your residence yesterday?"
Shen Ajiao looked at Zhou Shun, who was anxious, and snorted coldly. So she really had taken a liking to this boy.
"What's wrong? Did they come to your residence too?"
Zhou Shun clicked his tongue and nodded. "Tell Grandmother that you've taken a liking to a former classmate and ask her to help you make an appointment."
Shen Ajiao was taken aback. It wasn't Zhou Shun?
Do you know who they have their eye on?
Zhou Shun shook his head. "Besides me, there are only Gu Yuzhi and Huo Huaixi."
Shen Ajiao and Zhou Shun exchanged a glance and said in unison, "Huo Huaixi?"
Then he exclaimed in surprise, "No way?"
"It's him?"
After Shen Ajiao finished speaking, she realized that she had been deceived by Cui Baozhu!
"You mean she gave ten thousand taels?" Zhou Shun asked curiously. Shen Ajiao gasped and turned her face away in anger.
"You've been sold out by her."
Before Shen Ajiao could react, Zhou Shun started jumping up and down, "I knew it! She's been running around everywhere these past few days. After running around as the Princess Consort of Pingxi, she's been running around everywhere!"
Shen Ajiao immediately deflated; she truly couldn't believe any of Cui Baozhu's talk of love.
Cui Baozhu must have guessed that her family wouldn't approve of the person she had her eye on, so she did the opposite. Good, good, no wonder she was so generous this time.
In the past, two or three hundred taels would have been enough to kill her, but this time she's throwing away ten thousand taels. Hehehe, what a clever scheme!
"Let's go, Gillian Chung will pay the bill for everyone today!"
After all, this is a good opportunity; she'll get ten thousand taels...
It's not a bad deal, after all, the duck tongues I have are more fragrant and have better value for money!
Zhou Shun was still furious, even after eating and drinking his fill. He was so scared that he couldn't sleep all night, fearing that some Cui Baozhu might say she had taken a liking to him. "Let's go find her."
Where to look?
Shen Ajiao rolled her eyes at Zhou Shun. Young and impulsive!
"She must be with Huo Huaixi!"
Shen Ajiao glanced at Zhou Shun and thought, "Wow, little brother Shun is quite clever." She said, "Let's go, let's go."
Lin Daiyu slowly wiped her hands. "You all go ahead, I won't go."
"Okay, we'll take you back first."
Shen Ajiao...
She now resembles a lonely, giant whale…
It's big and lonely...
Lin Daiyu smiled and said, "There's no need to send anything. You should go quickly."
She also wanted to see Cui Baozhu get caught, but she had to help her wife look after the house, so she didn't go, to avoid making Cui Baozhu look bad.
Zhou Shun insisted on sending Lin Daiyu home first, ostensibly for her safety.
[Safety First]
Lin Daiyu snorted at Shen Ajiao, turned her face away, and entered the mansion with her maid.
Shen Ajiao then went with Zhou Shun to capture Cui Baozhu.
The two secretly sent someone to inquire about Cui Baozhu's whereabouts. Sure enough, the person went to Huo Huaixi's residence. The two exchanged a glance and immediately took action.
Sure enough, Cui Baozhu was seen at the door.
Cui Baozhu, who was always arrogant in front of Shen Ajiao, was as weak as a little white rabbit in front of Huo Huaixi, her eyes red, holding a pastry in her hand, "I know I've wronged you like this,"
"But there's nothing I can do. I've already tried to persuade them."
Huo Huaixi looked coldly at Cui Baozhu, "Are you finished?"
"That's all, I'm leaving."
Cui Baozhu's tears fell instantly. "I'm sorry."
"It has nothing to do with you."
[first blood]
"It's impossible between us."
【double kill】
"I have someone I like."
【triple kill】
Huo Huaixi...
