The wealthy tycoon wants to be the white moonlight of the little village girl
Chapter 152 I think my sister is much thicker-skinned than the maids!
The wife of Duke Jin smiled and said, "Just accept it with confidence! Master Jiang has helped us a lot. What's a mere painting? It's not worth mentioning. If you don't accept it, you must think this gift is too light! We are not as generous as the old lady. I don't know what you young people like. It was only after asking Master Jiang that I found out that you like embroidery and painting the most. That's why I asked someone to get this Xu Tao's posthumous work for you. I hope Qinghe, you won't be shy!"
Qing He thanked her politely, "Since Madam is so kind, I will obey your command. Thank you for your kindness."
The banquet was filled with joy, when suddenly the maid replied, "Madam, Princess Jingying from Prince Jing's Mansion is here!"
Lady Jin Guogong smiled and said, "Please come in!"
Everyone was shocked, and then looked at Qinghe at the same time. They heard that Jingying had made a joke in the Jiang Mansion before, so why did she come here again after receiving the news?
Qinghe was very calm, with a faint smile on her face and no expression on her face.
Even though she used to be very disgusted and afraid of this mysterious and powerful princess, ever since she knew that her best friend Ying'er was actually Princess Jingying, that feeling of fear in her heart suddenly disappeared!
Especially after Jingying encountered obstacles everywhere in Jiang's house, Qinghe suddenly felt that she was not so scary!
Because neither Madam Jiang nor Jiang Yao actually liked her very much. Instead, they were very caring towards her. In other words, as long as she could coax Jiang Yaonian, there would basically be no big problem!
The maid opened the curtain, and the beautiful Jingying came in timidly from outside. She came to the wife of Duke Jin and bowed respectfully, saying, "Greetings, Madam and all the elders!"
"Please take a seat, Princess." Lady Jinguogong hurriedly greeted her.
Jingying smiled and greeted everyone one by one. When it was Qinghe's turn, she couldn't help but said softly, "Qinghe, you're here too."
Qinghe had a cold expression and did not respond to her.
Some people at the table had heard about Jingying's attempt to frame Qinghe at Madam Jiang's birthday party. When they saw the two of them in this situation today, they understood a little bit.
After Qinghe sat for a while, she stood up, said goodbye to the wife of the Duke of Jin and everyone else, and turned to leave the flower hall.
Just as she reached the corner, she heard someone behind her calling, "Qinghe!"
Qing He looked back and saw Jing Ying also coming out. She smiled nonchalantly and said, "Why are you leaving right after I got here? Don't you want to see me?"
Seeing that there was no one around, Qing He couldn't help but curl up her lips and said with a smile: "Sister Ying'er, why did you specially chase me out? Do you have something to say to me?"
Jingying said calmly: "Oh, nothing, I just want to apologize to you again for what happened at the birthday party. Also, I want to ask, who did you learn your painting skills from?"
Qing He said in a very gentle tone: "Why does Sister Ying'er suddenly want to know this?"
Jingying looked into the distance, and said with a somewhat sad tone: "Nothing, if I had known that Mr. Jiang liked girls who could paint, I would definitely learn it... But at that time I heard that he was good at playing the guqin, so I also learned it, so that one day I could play the guqin with him, even if it was just playing a song together in his study..."
As her voice got lower and lower, Qing He's heart gradually became a little bitter, thinking that this noble daughter of a royal family might have really loved Jiang Yaonian...
Unexpectedly, Jingying suddenly changed the subject and said with a smile: "Fortunately, I made up for this regret when I stayed at Jiang's house before! Mr. Jiang's guqin is unique in the capital, and those princes and nobles in the court may not have the blessing to hear him play in person. I didn't expect that after I came back from praying for blessings that day, after we finished talking about serious things in the study, he actually fulfilled my wish... It's a pity that the guards later said that you had to stay in Huainan Palace for dinner, so he hurried to the palace to pick you up. But on the day I was leaving, we played another song together, using the same guqin... He also took one of my handkerchiefs as a souvenir, saying that after all, we knew each other, but it was a pity that we were not destined to be together..."
Qing He listened to it silently, then suddenly laughed and said in a very relaxed tone: "In that case, sister should cherish this only thought! It can also be regarded as an explanation for your infatuation for so many years... When it's late at night and everyone is asleep, take it out and recall it, it can be regarded as not a dream in vain!"
Jingying's face froze, and she asked in disbelief, "Aren't you angry?"
Qing He pretended to be surprised and said, "Why should I be angry? Young Master Jiang has such good conditions, it is common for him to be missed by others. If I get angry because of these, I'm afraid I won't be able to get over it! As long as he makes me happy every day and holds me to sleep every night... I really won't care about other things. After all, there are many beautiful women, but there is only one position for Madam Jiang! If I get angry because of something that is not worth it, wouldn't that be hard on myself?"
Only then did Jingying realize that this little country girl was far more difficult to deal with than she had imagined!
She smiled slightly and said meaningfully, "Really? Then why did I hear that a maid in the mansion was driven away because she liked Mr. Jiang? Do you really not care, or do you dare not care?"
Qing He said nonchalantly, "Then you should ask Young Master Jiang! He was the one who drove the person away. It has nothing to do with me. Maybe he was afraid that I would be unhappy, and he also wanted to warn the other maids. You know what, no one has come to provoke me since then. They are all well-behaved and honest. It seems that they also know how to be afraid! However, I think my sister is much thicker-skinned than the maids! She clearly knew that Young Master Jiang was married, but she still rushed to seduce him again and again! In the end, it was all in vain, and there was no progress! Alas, it is also a pity!"
Qinghe smiled and turned away after she finished speaking.
Jingying stood there and watched her back as she walked away. A hint of coldness flashed through her eyes. She gritted her teeth and said angrily, "Just wait, there will always be such a day!"
Jiang Mansion.
Qinghe got off the car at the second gate and originally wanted to go back to the villa directly, but suddenly she had an idea and turned to the study room on Xinlin Island.
She didn't believe that Jingying went to the Duke of Jin's Mansion on purpose just to have a quarrel with her. There must be some other reason!
The guard replied respectfully: "Madam, Mr. Jiang is not here now!"
Qinghe nodded and said, "I have an earring that I dropped somewhere. Come and look for it." Then she walked in.
Jiang Yaonian's study was very clean and tidy, with basically no clutter.
Qinghe intuitively came to the guqin table, hesitated for a moment to calm herself down, then reached out and gently lifted the guqin cover. Sure enough, she saw a handkerchief lying quietly on the guqin!
