Chapter 598: Reborn Girl vs. Book-Traveling Girl 19
Zheng Yunxi patted his chest and said, "It's okay, it's okay, as long as my second sister is okay.
But second sister, I have been thinking about one thing on the way here. Do you think it is okay?
I was thinking, why don’t we learn to swim together?
This was so scary. If someone hadn’t arrived in time, I’d be scared just thinking about it.
Take advantage of the hot weather now and practice hard to avoid similar dangers in the future."
When Zheng Yunxi said this, Zheng Xingyao's eyes lit up.
She could swim, and when she fell into the lake, she pretended to struggle in the water to avoid being exposed.
Now that Zheng Yunxi had brought it up first, she knew that after learning, it would provide a clear path for her to learn swimming, so she naturally responded positively.
She immediately turned around and said to the Marquis who was resting beside her in a coquettish voice: "Mother~"
The voice was gentle. The Marquis hadn't heard her daughter act like a spoiled child in such a long time. She couldn't help laughing and said:
“It’s fine if you want to learn to swim, but you can’t ignore the dangers of swimming just because you know how to swim.
As the saying goes, those who drown are good swimmers, so we must be more careful."
After this incident, the Marquis's wife also hopes that her daughter can learn a skill to save her life. Nothing is more important than her daughter's life, no matter what the rules are.
She just wants her daughter to be safe and sound, nothing else matters.
As for Zheng Yunxi, the concubine's daughter, just treat her as a by-product.
Anyway, seeing that she gets along well with Zheng Xingyao and behaves well in the mansion, the Marquis's wife is willing to give her this benefit.
It was decided that the two sisters would learn to swim.
The female swimming teacher would naturally be found by the Marquis' wife, and the two girls just had to wait.
Zheng Yunxi did not leave and stayed with Zheng Xingyao to talk to her.
After Zheng Xingyao drank the medicine, she came to say goodbye to the eldest princess under the guidance of the marquis's wife.
The eldest princess knew what had happened to Zheng Xingyao before, and did not try to keep her. She asked them to sit down and wait, and sent her maid to help find Zheng Yuejin.
The Marquis's wife brought her two daughters here to talk with the eldest princess for a while, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious.
They have all been educated by everyone, so no matter how dark their thoughts are in private, no one shows it on the surface.
After chatting for a while, the maid who went out to look for someone came back with a grim expression and said something in the eldest princess's ear.
The eldest princess quickly turned her gaze towards the direction of the Marquis's wife and Zheng Xingyao, and Zheng Yunxi became the ignored one again.
Madam Hou and Zheng Xingyao both had smiles on their faces, just like before.
The princess waved her hand, signaling the maid to leave, then turned to the marquis and said, "We've found Miss Zheng, but something unexpected has happened. Let's go and take a look."
The Marquis's face showed just the right amount of surprise, and she asked with concern, "What happened? How is my eldest daughter doing now?"
Zheng Yunxi and Zheng Xingyao also showed surprise on their faces, and then turned to worry.
The eldest princess looked at the people in Xuanping Marquis's Mansion, but could not find any flaws.
She stood up, straightened her clothes, and said, "It's hard to explain the specific situation. Let's go first. We'll know when we get to the Marquis's wife."
After saying that, the eldest princess walked out first, followed closely by the marquis' wife and the two sisters of the Zheng family, and the ladies in charge who had just been chatting in the flower hall followed closely behind.
After all, there is gossip to be read, and it is not about the excitement in one's own home. Even if she is the wife of a wealthy family, it is difficult to hide her gossipy heart.
Along the way, the eldest princess kept an eye on the Zheng family.
The Marquis's wife has been working in the rear palace for many years, so it is not easy to find any flaws in her.
The two young ladies from the Zheng family who were behind them were also flawless. The eldest princess couldn't help but feel that she was overthinking it, and perhaps this matter really had nothing to do with these people.
Half of the eldest princess's worries were relieved, but the other half would have to be confirmed after investigation.
If these people really ruined her flower-viewing party, she would never forgive them easily.
This was a party she hosted, and only she could control the situation as she pleased, and would not allow anyone else to interfere.
Led by the eldest princess' maid, the group came to a courtyard not far from the garden.
At this time, there were guards guarding outside the courtyard.
Seeing the arrival of the eldest princess and her entourage, the people guarding outside opened the gate of the courtyard and respectfully invited the eldest princess and several people from the Zheng family in, while the others were stopped outside the courtyard.
The gatekeeper then closed the gate and continued to stand guard at his post.
Although those ladies were dissatisfied, they guessed that this was probably someone they could not afford to offend, so they did not say much.
They did not leave, but gathered in groups of three or four, quietly speculating about what had happened in the yard.
The yard was silent and still.
The eldest princess walked forward and pushed the door. She thought the door was locked, but it opened with a slight push.
The eldest princess stepped into the room, and the marquis's wife was eager to follow her in.
Suddenly, she remembered her daughter behind her and turned around and said, "Don't follow me in, both of you. Wait in the yard and don't run around."
After saying that, he walked into the room without looking back.
Zheng Xingyao stood at the door, looking forward to seeing the famous scene of catching an adulterer in the novel.
As soon as he stood on tiptoe and stretched his neck, he saw the enlarged face of the Marquis's wife.
The Marquis's wife glared at her and slammed the door shut from the inside, almost hitting Zheng Xingyao's nose.
Fortunately, Zheng Xingyao did not forget to maintain a worried expression just now. When others saw it, they even praised her for caring about her sisters at home.
If she showed a look of curiosity, she would probably not even have the chance to explain.
There are various versions of rumors about the discord between the Zheng sisters.
Zheng Xingyao touched her nose and walked towards Zheng Yunxi who was already standing under the shade of a tree in the yard, looking back every few steps.
Seeing Zheng Yunxi standing calmly under the tree, gently waving a fan, she couldn't help but ask:
"Third sister, aren't you curious at all? Don't you want to know what happened in there?"
Zheng Yunxi pulled Zheng Xingyao to his side and said slowly:
"There's nothing to be curious about. No matter what's going on in there, since Mother won't let us go in to see, we can't go in even if we're curious. We'd better just be obedient and wait here."
Maybe on the way home, mother will tell us about the ins and outs of this, so it will be just as good if we listen then."
Although Zheng Xingyao was full of curiosity, she had recently restrained her lively personality that she had in modern times. She forced herself to calm down and stood with Zheng Yunxi, waiting for the Marquis's wife to come out.
There was no reason for Zheng Yunxi to be anxious, so she was naturally not anxious.
She had already seen the situation in the room clearly with her spiritual sense, so what was there to be curious about?
If she wasn't afraid of exposing herself, she would have the urge to give Zheng Xingyao a live explanation.
