Guo Wanrou's words were polite and generous, as if she was pleading, but no one could find a reason to refuse. She was a relative of Queen Guo. Although she had no contact with people like them in the world, she was still a member of the court, and she was a member of the whole world.
Isn't it the king's land? If he can't offend, he won't offend. Therefore, Mr. Leng could only smile and pretend to be generous: "Miss Guo's visit to Jiazhou is a blessing for us Jiazhou people. If Miss Guo doesn't dislike it,
How about staying in our Leng Mansion for the next few days?"
This is the bad thing about talking to officials and family members. It is clear that the other party's purpose is obvious, but you still have to pretend to be honored and say a few sincere words. To put it bluntly, it is to give the other party a face and throw dirty water on yourself.
"What should we do? Will Wanrou be too intrusive if she lives here?" It was obvious that Guo Wanrou was getting an advantage and acting like a good girl, pretending to be a lady, which made Leng Changxi feel a bit fake when she looked at her.
Just when Master Leng was about to speak, Leng Changxi's lips curled up slightly, and a vicious sneer bloomed on her lips, making people suddenly shudder: "Of course I will disturb you!"
As soon as Leng Changxi finished speaking, there was a sudden silence in the hall. Guo Wanrou's face suddenly turned pale due to embarrassment, and the standard young lady's smile on her face was almost unbearable.
Mr. Leng's hand holding the cup shook slightly, he raised his eyes slightly and looked at Leng Changxi, and stopped talking. Sometimes, the meaning of letting yourself do something is different from letting your child do it.
Guo Wanrou, who expected Master Leng to say something, had already prepared the next lines, but when she saw Master Leng's nonchalant expression, she looked at Zhao Yuan aggrievedly, planning to let Zhao Yuan do it for him.
She said the last two sentences, but who would have thought that Zhao Yuan would watch his nose and heart from beginning to end, just sitting there drinking tea.
In an instant, Guo Wanrou was filled with anger, but due to her identity as the young lady of the Guo family, she had to continue to smile. But she didn't know that her pretty face had long been distorted by anger, so she was smiling so reluctantly.
It added a bit of joy, making Leng Changxi look at it and couldn't help laughing.
She smiled so wildly that Zhao Yuan couldn't help but frown. He was afraid that the female overlord would tease her too much and get angry, so he slowly opened his mouth and scolded: "Little Bao'er!"
Seeing that Zhao Yuan stood up for her, Guo Wanrou hurriedly climbed down the stairs, pretending to be surprised and said: "You must be sister Chang Xi, right?"
"To me, you are Leng Changxi!" Leng Changxi raised her chin slightly, with a self-centered look, which instantly overcame Guo Wanrou's temperament.
After all, she is a young lady from an official family. She has already perfected the tricks to maintain face even when her appearance is ruined. She smiled elegantly and said softly: "I thought the rumors were too much before, but now I see you and I know it."
Sister Chang Xi is indeed as domineering as the rumors say."
Her hesitant words were clearly heard by everyone. Considering Leng Changxi's reputation outside, it goes without saying that Guo Wanrou actually said that she was just like the rumors. This was not an obvious use of rumors to humiliate her.
Her?
"Miss Guo, what you're saying..." I know the virtues of my daughter best. Even if I want to beat or scold, I can only do it by myself. I can't tolerate others being so presumptuous in front of me. Guo Wanrou's words obviously make her
Master Leng was angry in his heart, and when he was about to speak, he was cut off by Leng Changxi: "Sister Wanrou is absolutely right!"
She, Leng Changxi, did not grow up on a vegetarian diet. If Guo Wanrou had a good plan, she would have a ladder to climb the wall. It was just a scheming trick. Guo Wanrou has lived so many decades less than her! Immediately, Leng Changxi softened.
Her tone seemed to be a real pain point: "Chang Xi is too willful. She is usually spoiled at home. When she saw her sister today, she couldn't help but make a joke with her. Chang Xi thought her sister
The adults won't mind if there are too many, but who would think..." Leng Changxi bit her lower lip lightly before finishing her words, as if Guo Wanrou was really too stingy and had wronged her.
Her words made Guo Wanrou lose all her words in her stomach. The corner of her mouth twitched slightly. She could only take a deep breath and forced a smile: "What are you talking about, sister? I am young, so with
Sister, I am joking, will I still be interested in you?"
"Sister, I have a lot of money. If you can forgive me and become better, if you don't mind, then you can stay in our Leng Mansion for the next few days. My little husband and I will definitely greet my sister well." Leng Changxi looked like a shy little daughter.
So, he glanced at Zhao Yuan quietly.
Leng Changxi's little husband's voice was very smooth.
When Master Leng heard this, he trembled all over and suddenly felt like escaping.
Lingfeng stood behind Leng Changxi with his head lowered and his shoulders trembling slightly.
"Little...little husband?" Guo Wanrou suddenly felt a bad premonition in her heart.
When Zhao Yuan was accused of marriage, it was just a verbal exchange between the two families. Naturally, other people didn't know, and Guo Wanrou was no exception. She looked at Zhao Yuan uncertainly, and then at Leng Changxi.
, his face finally turned completely cold when Leng Changxi said: "Sister, I don't know, Zhao Yuan is my little husband."
