Chapter 401 Interlude
Cui Lingyao smiled faintly: "I remember you, you are the sister of Lord Tang, the Chief Censor."
Qin Huiyin smiled: "Sister Cui has a good memory, she is worthy of being the most talented woman in the capital. I was just joking just now. Since you like this riding suit, then you can buy it!"
After that, she said to Zhilan and Sujin, "Let's go."
Cui Lingyao watched Qin Huiyin leave.
"Miss, a little sister of the Imperial Censor actually dares to snatch things from you. You really don't know your own limitations." Zhenzhu said, "I heard that Lord Tang is from a peasant family, so his sisters must be peasant girls. No wonder she is so unruly and doesn't know how to read people's expressions. It turns out that she is from a small family and has never seen the world."
"It's just a riding suit. Is it worth it for you to stand up for me? Our Cui family is in need of this riding suit, so why are you so aggressive and embarrassing me?" Cui Lingyao looked at the maid coldly.
Pearl was stunned and quickly knelt down.
The boss tried to smooth things over and said with a smile, "This riding suit is made with a lost embroidery technique and the silk thread used is ice silk. It is very expensive. If the young lady just now knew the price, she would not dare to argue with Miss Cui. Only Miss Cui can wear such a riding suit elegantly."
"How much?"
"Three thousand taels."
"So expensive?" another maid smacked her lips.
Cui Lingyao frowned, hesitated for a moment, and said, "The style of the riding suit is very nice, but I can't wear ice silk. I get a rash every time I wear it. Boss, do you have any other styles?"
"Yes, this way please, miss."
The boss did not expose the little tricks of these noble ladies. He took her to the riding wear area between 500 taels and 1,000 taels and introduced her to more suitable styles.
Cui Lingyao got on the carriage and glanced at the riding clothes beside her, without any joy on her face.
"Miss, if you like it, why don't you tell the master... His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will also be attending the party at the horse farm. The master has always valued His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's impression of you, so perhaps he would be willing to pay the money." Pearl asked tentatively.
"I have already said that I cannot wear ice silk. Do you want me to break my promise and gain weight?" Cui Lingyao said calmly, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince values me, and it is never because of those external things."
Qin Huiyin looked around but didn't find a style she liked, so she picked a decent one.
When she met Cui Lingyao buying riding clothes, she knew that some unexpected people would appear in this event. In this case, don't be too ostentatious. Being ordinary may not be a bad thing.
"Miss, you didn't argue with Miss Cui just now. Was it because you took into account her status, or because you took into account that she would soon become the Crown Princess?" Zhilan asked.
"Offending people for a set of riding clothes is not a good deal for a businessman. I just can't stand her gossip and want to annoy her. My goal has been achieved. If she wants to buy it, she can buy it. I am not afraid to go out without that set of clothes." Qin Huiyin said lightly, "As for whether she becomes the crown princess, what does it have to do with me? Even if she becomes the crown princess, she can't cause trouble for the official's wife for no reason. The crown prince is still recruiting powerful officials. If she is really smart, she should help make friends with him instead of making enemies."
Tang Yichen went out for social events again today and came back very late.
When Qin Huiyin heard that he was back, she asked Zhilan and Sujin to go to the kitchen to bring the sobering soup and dessert she had asked him to.
Tang Yichen came back and went into the study room. It was obvious that he had not drunk too much today. Even so, when he saw the hangover soup Qin Huiyin brought him, he still drank it up honestly.
"Try this dessert. I made it myself. It's definitely better than candied fruit." Qin Huiyin handed over the dessert.
"As expected, crying children get candy." Tang Yichen said, "Yesterday you said you liked the candied fruit you made, and today I have the dessert you made yourself. Is this how Song coaxes you?"
Qin Huiyin: “…”
He didn't need to be coaxed, she always couldn't help but love him more.
Tang Yichen has a father, siblings, and so many blood relatives. Song Ruize is different, he is always alone.
However, things are much better now. He has several brothers who are loyal to him, and at least he has escaped the fate in the original book.
"Is it delicious?" Qin Huiyin changed the subject.
Tang Yichen didn't really want to bring up old issues with her, he just couldn't help but feel jealous.
"Of course it's delicious. When have you ever made something that doesn't taste good?" Tang Yichen ate the double skin milk and felt that all his restlessness today had dissipated. "There's a box over there, open it and take a look."
Qin Huiyin walked in the direction Tang Yichen pointed, opened the box, and saw the extremely beautiful riding suit.
This riding suit is indeed different from other styles and is definitely unique.
"I have your spy around me, and he even knows where I went and what I wanted to buy." Qin Huiyin teased him deliberately. "But didn't the young lady from the Prime Minister's Mansion want to buy it? How did it fall into your hands?"
"This riding suit is made of ice silk. The prime minister's daughter said that ice silk would be uncomfortable to wear, so she didn't buy it." Tang Yichen said, "I didn't send anyone to keep an eye on you, a heartless little guy. It's just that the boss happened to have received a favor from me, and when he heard that you were my sister, he sent someone to deliver the clothes. I asked someone to give him the silver, so you don't have to worry about me taking bribes."
"Then I'll take it." Qin Huiyin said, "Wear the outfit I bought for you when you go to the horse farm tomorrow. Keep a low profile. We can wear this outfit when we go out to play."
"good."
"Do you still have official duties to attend to? Otherwise, I..."
"If you're bored, there are storybooks over there. Many of them are new and you probably haven't read them yet."
Qin Huiyin's eyes were full of light: "How do you know I like to watch this? Okay, I won't bother you anymore, you do your thing, I'll do mine."
Tang Yichen saw Qin Huiyin walk to the storybook area and saw how excited she was. She finally looked like a little girl.
Qin Huiyin looked around and found that the scripts were quite normal and did not contain any plots that were inappropriate for children.
Chen Yu said to Zhang Zhen beside him, "The master had two hours of free time in the afternoon, so he went to the bookstore and picked up so many storybooks. It turned out that it was for the second young lady."
"Every book was selected by the young master, there is absolutely no possibility of misleading the young lady." Zhang Zhen said, "But I saw that the young master was blushing while reading, it must be very difficult! He is such a serious person, in order to check for his sister, he first scanned those stories himself."
He brought back the normal plots. He had seen a lot of abnormal ones and had just drunk a lot of cooling tea.
Tang Yichen waved to the two followers, signaling them to retreat.
During this rare warm time, he didn't want to have two pillars standing there to ruin the atmosphere of their private time together.
