Xiao Baoxin smiled, his long eyelashes fluttering, looking playful and clever.

“I love and respect these hands. Although the elderly always think that skinny hands with only bones left and no flesh are blessed, but the ten fingers are so slender that they look like water onions.”

Then, ignoring Xiao Jingyi’s frozen face, he raised his other hand that was not held together and placed it in front of her eyes.

Her fingers were long and round, and they were pinkish white. They were soft and comfortable to touch.

“Unlike me, who has flesh on my fingers and is blessed to have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of my life. But in the end, she was not as elegant as the respected Qingya Xiuzhi, so she felt a little regretful.”

Xiao Jing ‘ai thought,”Go to hell!”

And, 1,657 vulgarities were omitted above.

“Sister, don’t tease me.” Xiao Jing ‘ai swallowed her anger.” We’re talking about serious matters. Why are you joking again?” Actually, there’s something I don’t know if I should say…”

Xiao Baoxin:” If you feel that way, then it’s something you shouldn’t say. I suggest you don’t say it.””

“..”Xiao Jing ‘ai was speechless.

The calmness that he had cultivated in the stagnant Spring Gazing Palace was broken by Xiao Baoxin with just a few words.

‘One day, when I finally become the mother of a country, I will definitely cut off this lowly servant’s tongue! To dispel the hatred in my heart!

Xiao Baoxin stared at Xiao Jing ‘ai’s almond-shaped eyes, which made her hair stand on end.

“Sister, you…Why are you looking at me like that?” Why did she feel that Xiao Baoxin had gone crazy? His eyes were filled with killing intent.

Xiao Baoxin suddenly smiled, and the haze in his eyes instantly dissipated, becoming as dazzling as the rising sun. However, she also let go of Xiao Jing ‘ai’s hand. She really couldn’t hold it anymore. She was afraid that she would lose control and remove Xiao Jing’ ai’s hand.

Was it because she had a secret in her heart that she couldn’t tell him, so she expressed her feelings especially frequently?

After saying a few words, she responded without hesitation and sold all her cards.

“I’m just joking with you. There’s nothing between us sisters that can’t be said.”

“Actually, I have no choice but to ask this question. I’ve always treated it as something important.””

“I remember Sister telling me that Yang Dianjun once mentioned me…I have never seen that Yang Dianjun, but I am afraid that if such words spread, it will damage my reputation…”

Xiao Baoxin frowned slightly when he heard that.”

“Yeah, you don’t remember?” Xiao Jing ‘ai was stunned. The day I fainted, the Yuan family came to the residence to apologize. I was afraid that I had disturbed my sister, so I didn’t ask.”

She was the one who had kicked him out, but she had said that she was considerate and afraid of disturbing her. She had indeed lived a good life. She was even more hypocritical than before.

“Maybe you remembered wrongly.” “How can a girl like you know a man from the Jiangxia Prince’s mansion?” Xiao Baoxin asked nonchalantly. Even if he doesn’t know any better and brought it up in front of me, I’ll have my mother send someone to investigate his background.”

” She seemed to have suddenly remembered something, and her gaze suddenly became sharp like a knife.”Tell me the truth. Do you know Yang Dianjun? Why do you pay so much attention to him?”

Xiao Jing ‘ai was flabbergasted. What was Xiao Baoxin doing?

She was the one who brought it up, so why was she trying to make things difficult for her now?

He even brought out the chief branch’s wife. Was he trying to confirm her crime?

She would never forget that she was still engaged. She wanted to marry Yang Shao and snatch the position of the first wife, but she didn’t want to follow the old path of Xiao Baoxin in her previous life. She didn’t want to be called off by someone and ruin her reputation before marrying down.

No matter how glorious Xiao Baoxin was in her previous life, it was a stain that she could never wash away.

“Sister, you can’t say that! She was about to defend herself when the maid reported from the outside,”

Third Lady was here.

Xiao Jing ‘ai gritted her teeth and swallowed the rest of her words.

The population of the second branch was more complicated than that of the first branch. Xiao Yu had one wife and two concubines, and had a total of one son and three daughters.

The third lady, Xiao Miaorong, was the only daughter of the wife of the Xiao family. She was fourteen years old this year. Although she was not very big, she was very tall, even a little taller than Xiao Jing ‘ai.

She was beautiful and dignified, with eyebrows like distant mountains and eyes like autumn water. However, her clothes were not outstanding. She was wearing an emerald green robe and only had a phoenix hairpin on her head. She did not even wear any jewelry, looking a little dull and rigid.

“Is it…Did I come at a bad time?”

Before Xiao Miaorong entered the house, she vaguely heard something about ‘reputation’. When she came in and saw the awkward atmosphere, she immediately wanted to turn around and return to her own courtyard.

Originally, she did not have any relationship with Xiao Jing ‘ai, the eldest sister of the Di family. She only came over on the surface and did not want to get involved in any trouble.

Xiao Jing ‘ai saw that Xiao Miaorong was about to leave and quickly went forward to hold her arm, warmly letting her in.”What are you talking about, Sanniang? We sisters don’t have so many disputes.”

“Try it. Don’t you like melon seeds the most?”

Xiao Miaorong was cold by nature, and Xiao Jing ‘ai was calculative. The two usually minded their own business, but they were not very close.

Xiao Jing ‘ai was actually extremely angry at being interrupted. But Xiao Miaorong was different.

In her previous life, Xiao Miaorong married into the Xi family, the minister of the Ministry of Justice. Her husband, Xi Sanlang, successively served as the assistant minister of the Yellow Gate, and later became the prefect of Linhai. He was the commander of Xu Yan, Qingyou, and the military of Jinling in Yangzhou. After Yang Shao ascended the throne, he became the trusted minister of the new emperor. He rose all the way up and became the commander of the military of the five prefectures in the east of Zhejiang.

Before she died, she had already vaguely heard that Yang Shao seemed to have the intention to recall Xi Sanlang back to Jiankang and make him Sikong.

Xiao Miaorong had broken off relations with Xiao Jing ‘ai because of Madam Xiao, so she naturally stood on the side of the Second Madam, causing Xiao Jing’ ai to be isolated and helpless in the palace. After her rebirth, Xiao Miaorong was the person she had to befriend.

Xiao Jing ‘ai’s sudden enthusiasm shocked not only Xiao Baoxin but also Xiao Miaorong.

“.. Oh.”

After eating seven or eight melon seeds, Xiao Miaorong finally came back to her senses.”! went to my maternal grandfather’s house a few days ago. I only found out that second sister was sick when I came back last night.”

This was the reason why he came to visit the patient.

“Is her body well? I haven’t seen her for a long time. I’ll go and greet her another day.”Xiao Jing ‘ai quickly adjusted her state of mind and smiled.

“Sure.” Xiao Miaorong laughed dryly, the speed at which she ate melon seeds increased. Did her second sister eat something bad to her brain?

Her maternal family was just a concubine. At that time, she married her daughter into the Xiao family as a second wife. Firstly, the Xiao family was considered a new noble and was very honored. Secondly, the Xiao family’s family background was not prominent. The older generation used to be the internal history of Linchuan. Now, her uncle was the minister, but he was only a sixth-grade official. Although the official duties were heavy, there were many aristocratic families in Jiankang City.

In the past, Xiao Jing ‘ai had clearly looked down on her maternal family and had rushed to invite them over without bringing them along. Even when her maternal family had come, she had been polite and thoughtful with a hint of alienation.. Why was it that she had suddenly changed into someone else today? She actually kept calling her’ old madam ‘and’ old man’, and was sticking to her?
