Chapter 59 She Had Never Seen Such A Shameless Person!

When Song Yixiao hesitated, Lu Kou'er and Lu Chai'er had already drunk it. They drew their handkerchiefs out to wipe their lips lightly.

Lu Chai'er's mood seemed to recover a little after she got such a precious thing. She especially appreciated, "Grandmother, thank you. It smells fragrant and warm. But when I drink it, I feel it cooler than mint tea. It is so proper to drink it in this season! The prescription that the Grand Princess sends to the Empress Dowager is so wonderful!"

"Mint tea?" Song Yixiao had been just doubtful before. But at present, her heart sank completely, "Is she joking? How can the Fragrant Green Liquid drink like mint tea!"

Although she never drank it, she heard a poem about it in her previous life. The poem described the feeling after drinking it like bathing in the suns.h.i.+ne of March. How could the suns.h.i.+ne be cool?

Song Yixiao felt cold at this time. Seeing the gla.s.s cup in Lanhui's hand, she couldn't think it beautiful and cute any more.

But she thought its color was like Master Viper.

Lu Chai'er didn't care why Song Yixiao just sat there and didn't move. Lu Kou'er thought of the picture that Song Yixiao embroidered, which showed that Song Yixiao's skill of embroidery was much better than her. She never learned hard to embroider because she was proud of her status. But she was really unhappy to let an outsider perform better than herself at home!

She sneered and said arrogantly, "Grandmother had agreed to give it to you. How can she regret? You stare at it stupidly as if you can't believe it. I have to remind you that you are Brother Xubai's future wife now. If you are always so naive, you will lose the face of Duke of Yan's mansion!"

Lu Kou'er had an expression of disdain to her. It made Song Yixiao's gentle and smiling face stunned suddenly and then she blushed with shame on her white face. Lu Kou'er felt better after seeing that!

"Kou'er! Don't be rude!" While the Dowager Consort looked angry and scolded her, "You all grow up in the mansion. Yixiao is two years younger than you. How can you treat her like that?"

Then she turned to talk with Song Yixiao, "Ignore her. She is spoiled but she isn't a bad girl. Drink it. Although it's precious for many people, the Empress Dowager loves Xubai so much and you will drink it as you wis.h.!.+"

"Excuse me!" Song Yixiao twisted her handkerchief nervously and hurried to explain, "My thoughts shouldn't start to wander after the Dowager Consort gave me it generously! But when I saw how the Dowager Consort loved Sixth Young Lady, I thought of my own grandmother!"

Thanked to Lu Kou'er, Song Yixiao finally had an idea. How could she give up this chance?

Before other people chipped in, she took her handkerchief to wipe her red eyes and pretended to say sincerely with tears, "I remember that my grandmother treated me so well when I was young!"

"No matter what kind of delicious food she had, she would give me some!"

"One year, I was ill and my grandmother couldn't sleep for many nights because she worried about me! She went to stay with me every day. My parents were afraid she was affected by me so that they knelt in front her room to persuade her. But they couldn't stop her!"

"When I recovered, my grandmother had been thinner..."

Seeing her sincere face, Lu Kou'er snorted scornfully and murmured to herself, "Who don't know that you can't go home? Don't pretend to say that!"

But Lu Chai'er smiled and lowered her head to hide the disdain in her eyes.

The Dowager Consort frowned and had a look at Lu Kou'er. Then she said to Song Yixiao softly, "You are eldest legitimate granddaughter of the Song Family. How can Elder Lady Pang not love you? But it's a pity that you are fated to mourn her health. Luckily, the Empress Dowager asks you to marry Duke Jian. Elder Lady Pang must feel relieved!"

She smiled kindly, "Old people like us will be happy if our kids have a good life!"

The point was, "Don't think too much! Have a taste soon. Before honored guests come here, I have to tell you something!"

"I, I have a wis.h.!.+" Song Yixiao looked at her expectantly, "My grandmother hasn't ever tasted Fragrant Green Liquid! I, I want to give it to her. So she can also be affected by your good fortune! Can you agree with me?"

The Dowager Consort looked dark for a while. And then she smiled, "Good girl! I've known that you are so filial! But I'm not mean. Although the Fragrant Green Liquid is rare, I'm not lack of it. How can I let you walk on the street to send her with this little cup?"

She told Lanhui, "Take a bottle of Fragrant Green Liquid that hasn't been opened and send it to the Song Family. Tell them that Song Yixiao gives it to her grandmother especially!"

Song Yixiao hurried to kneel down to show her appreciation. The Dowager Consort looked at her fiercely but said gently, "Do you rest a.s.sured this time?"

Before Song Yixiao said, Lu Kou'er, whose face had already been dark, said jealously, "She w.a.n.gles a bottle of Fragrant Green Liquid and gets a filial reputation. How can she dissatisfy? She is so greedy!"

Although she had drunk it many times because she was the Dowager Consort's granddaughter, the Dowager Consort never gave her a bottle of it! But the Dowager Consort gave Song Yixiao's grandmother a bottle that was full of Fragrant Green Liquid!

As an outsider, Song Yixiao just said few words about her grandmother. Why did the Dowager Consort satisfy her wish?

Song Yixiao was so moved that she cried this time and had no time to pay attention to Fourth Commandery Princess. She said, "Your Highness, thank you so much! You treat me so well!"

"You are so filial. Who will dislike you?" The Dowager Consort smiled and asked a maid to hand her handkerchief to Song Yixiao. "Clean your face quickly!"

Lanhui used the Dowager Consort's handkerchief to wipe tears of Song Yixiao and smiled, "Miss Song, don't be so polite to Her Highness! I've told you that Her Highness always regarded you as her own granddaughter!"

She considerately handed the gla.s.s cup to her lips and said, "Young lady, please drink it soon. You will also get the Dowager Consort's good fortune!"

Song Yixiao stretched out respectfully and said, "How can I ask you to serve me? Let me drink it by myself!"

The Dowager Consort looked at her with a light smile. Song Yixiao took the gla.s.s cup but didn't drink. She observed it with love and said, "Its color makes me think of spring. I've never seen such a beautiful green in my life!"

She looked shy, "My foster nurse is the first person who tells me the Fragrant Green Liquid..."

When she said that, Lu Chai'er who always kept silent whispered to her elder sister suddenly, "Will she want another bottle of it for her foster nurse?"

Lu Kou'er was shocked when she heard that. Then she immediately stared at Song Yixiao alertly. Sure enough, Song Yixiao said, "Your Highness, I want to ask you one more thing..."

"Are you enough?" Lu Kou'er shouted unbelievably in anger, "You pretended to be filial to get a bottle for your grandmother. Now you dare to talk about your foster nurse! Will you continue to mention all maids who sweep the floor in the Hanxia Villa?"

She had never seen such a shameless person!

How insatiable she was!

Lu Kou'er was so jealous at this time. But Song Yixiao didn't stop. She pouted her mouth and complained, "But Fourth Commandery Princess, my foster nurse is really good to me..."

"Clang!" Lu Kou'er smashed the gla.s.s cup that she had used to Song Yixiao without thinking and blamed, "Shut up. B***h!"

The Dowager Consort turned livid with rage. Lu Kou'er turned to talk with her angrily, "Grandmother, it's so kind for us to raise her with luxurious life for many years! Although she will marry Brother Xubai, she can't be so insatiable! Does she think you are a sucker? Do we need to let all things of Prince of Hengshan's mansion be her dowry?"

Song Yixiao thanked Lu Kou'er so much in her heart. But she pretended to fall the gla.s.s cup in her hand when she was avoiding the cup smashed by Lu Kou'er. She complained, "I just want Her Highness to allow me to send it to the Hanxia Villa so that my foster nurse can have a look at it..."

Lu Kou'er sneered, "Do you think we are fools? You are so greedy!"

The Dowager Consort touched the bracelet on her wrist and looked at her two granddaughters with cold eyes. Then she said coldly, "It has been smashed. No matter what you are thinking or unsatisfied, can you calm down now?"

Then her voice was colder, "After all, the honored guests are coming. If they see it, will my birthday party go on? At that time, I'd better go to the imperial palace to let the Empress Dowager punish me because I don't manage the family seriously!"

Song Yixiao immediately knelt down loudly with Jinxun and said, "I'm so rude. Please punish me!"

"Grandmother, please calm down!" Lu Kou'er glared at her and then knelt down slowly.

The Dowager Consort didn't blame them. She asked them to stand up without any emotion, as if no conflict happened. Then she told them kindly, "Most of guests today were either old or married. They are not interested to talk with girls like you. After they see you and say some polite greetings, they won't talk with you for a long time. But there are two important guests who are almost the same as your age and are not married. You should accompany them."

Hearing that, Song Yixiao felt something bad would happen.

Sure enough.

The Dowager Consort said casually, "But Princess Changxing and Princess Yushan are relatives of our prince's mansion. Although they are spoiled in the imperial palace, I don't think they will blame you when they feel uncomfortable in the prince's mansion. Don't worry to take care of them!"

Song Yixiao sneered.

How could they not blame other people?

A few days ago, Jian Xubai told her personally that she should keep at a respectful distance from "Princess Changxing"!

What did Wei Mengying say six years ago?

"Emperor's daughters are all tricky. People who offend them will have many troubles!"

The Empress Dowager just decided Song Yixiao's marriage. Even the Dowager Consort had to respect her.

But Princess Changxing was different. She was the legitimate granddaughter of the Empress Dowager and the daughter of the Emperor. So she could purposely make difficulties for Song Yixiao in public without being punished.

The Emperor liked Jian Xubai. But the Empress Dowager and Emperor Xianjia would only protect him. They might not care about his fiancée!

Even if they cared about her, how could she have the same treatment as Princess Changxing? They must show partiality to their daughter instead of the fiancée!

Besides, Song Yixiao was just a nephew's fiancée. She was not their son's wife!

But she couldn't refuse. Princess Changxing was hard to get along with. But she had a high status. It was an honor to accompany her. Especially, Song Yixiao would become her sister-in-law and had to accompany her when she came to Prince of Hengshan's mansion to congratulate the Dowager Consort's birthday!

"The Dowager Consort is so clever. How can she give up after I refuse the cup of Fragrant Green Liquid?" Song Yixiao clenched her fists tightly in her sleeves and sneered in her heart. "What a good excuse! She gives me a problem. But everyone will praise her consideration because she gives me a chance to talk with the princess which is my future husband's relative!"

It wouldn't be the Dowager Consort's fault if Song Yixiao had a conflict with Princess Changxing. After all, who dared to blame the Emperor's legitimate daughter? So it must be Song Yixiao's fault for she didn't serve the princess well and wasted the opportunity given by the Dowager Consort!

"Princess Changxing is from the royal family. I hope her behavior is gentle!" She could do nothing but to pray silently at present, "I'm good at intriguing against others. But if she uses force..."

How could she win as a really weak young lady?

But...

Princess Changxing had been famous due to her "rudeness" since six years ago. Would she just be so gentle to quarrel with her instead of fighting?
