Chapter 26 Salute Jiang Xueqing? Where's the face?

Since they couldn't go to the front yard, the first place Liu Yu and her friends went to was the Shui Xie Liang Ting in the backyard. It was a small attic in the middle of the artificial lake with windows on all sides. In the summer, an ice jar was placed inside. When the breeze blew, it made people feel more comfortable and cool than staying in the house.

The scenery of the Chen Mansion is very famous in Yanjing, and she has always wanted to take a look at it.

She had heard of it in Prince Qi's Mansion before, but Prince Qi and the Chen Mansion were not from the same faction and were sworn enemies. But after Prince Qi ascended the throne, the Chen Mansion was destroyed along with the Chen family, which was a small regret.

When they arrived, the ice pavilion was very quiet and empty, so Liu Yu asked Guyu to get an ice jar.

She would sit on the railing, fanning herself with a round fan, and from time to time she would grab a handful of fish food and throw it into the lake. The koi in the lake would scramble for the food. Afterwards, they would tilt their heads back, blow bubbles from their mouths, and look at the person feeding them on the shore in a silly way. They were so adorable.

Lian Baoer found it very interesting. She squatted down by the lake and poked the head of one of them with the handle of the round fan in her hand.

Yo, no movement.

Lian Baoer laughed: "Silly fish"

Liu Yu looked at Lian Baoer having fun playing with the fish, feeling the cool breeze across her face and smelling the elegant fragrance of lotus flowers, and she also smiled.

Cherish what you have now and there seems to be nothing wrong with living in the present.

"Oh, I wonder who this is!"

A jealous voice broke the peaceful and harmonious atmosphere in the courtyard.

Liu Yu looked behind him and saw a small boat slowly rowing towards the courtyard. On it sat three girls with bright eyebrows and white teeth. Jiang Xueqing sat behind them. She had delicate makeup on her face, wore a peony silk dress, and a ruby ​​headpiece on her head. She looked noble and had an extraordinary charm. It was obvious that she was held in the palm of the hand of Master Chen.

There was no trace of the miserable look he had in Shou'an Hall a few days ago.

I have to say that Jiang Xueqing is very good at winning men's hearts.

With the help of their maids, several girls got off the boat one after another and walked into the courtyard where Liu Yu was.

"You don't mind having more of us, do you?" The woman who was the first to get off the boat spoke. She was wearing a smoky purple gauze dress, had small features, and translucent white skin. Every step she took was like being measured with a ruler, and it all showed that she was a noble lady raised by a wealthy family.

Without waiting for Liu Yu to answer, Jiang Xueqing raised her head high like a victorious rooster, walked up to Liu Yu, glanced at her dress, and showed contempt.

She thought Liu Yu would be living a good life as the Third Master's woman, but it turned out that she was still so poor and her clothes were not even as good as before she entered the Chen Mansion.

But that was Mr. Chen San! Mr. Chen, the powerful man who had no wife!

Even the second master has to rely on him for his livelihood.

Thinking of this, Jiang Xueqing tightened her handkerchief and looked at Liu Yu with unconcealed jealousy.

That man should be hers.

It’s all Liu Yu’s fault. She must have secretly gone to see Mr. Chen San in advance and told him what happened in the streets of Nanshi.

Yes, that must be the case. Seeing that I am prettier than her, she plotted against me and let the Third Master drive me away.

Liu Yu deserves to die. She is obviously just a bastard who lives in the Marquis Pingnan's mansion. How can she be worthy of the Third Master? She can only be worthy of a man who has countless women in his harem.

No, what Jiang Xueqing can't get, Liu Yu can't get either.

"What? Aunt Liu is the Third Master's woman, so she doesn't recognize him anymore?" Jiang Xueqing asked sarcastically, "How can you forget even the etiquette?"

Liu Yu had a calm expression, not even giving Jiang Xueqing a glance. He walked over to the three girls and leaned over:

"Liu Yu greets the girls."

Chen Ruxi looked at Liu Yu. She had her hair tied up with a green hairpin and was wearing a flowery gauze skirt. Even with such simple attire, it was difficult to conceal her elegance.

Chen Xiyao helped her up:

"Are you the third brother's favorite concubine, Liu?" Although the third brother has two concubines, she has never seen them. After meeting them today, if it is as her mother said,

She is not flattering, nor does she take advantage of others' favor, and she never tries to please others. She is like a clear lake, pure and flawless.

No wonder the third brother can make the thousand-year-old iron tree bloom.

Liu Yu smiled faintly and said, "Miss, you are joking. The Third Master treats all the concubines in the backyard equally."

Chen Xiyao curled her lips secretly. Her third brother's personality seemed easy-going and he was nice to everyone. But that was exactly the case. In his eyes, everyone was the same.

For her, it was indifference, indifference to everyone. Her mother said that her third brother treated Aunt Liu very well, so that must be different from others.

Liu Yu didn't need Chen Xiyao to respond and welcomed them into the pavilion with a smile.

When Jiang Xueqing saw Liu Yu, she greeted everyone except herself. Why did she do that? Liu Yu was a concubine, and so was she. Strictly speaking, she was still with Master Chen Er, who was a generation older than her, so she should call him sister-in-law.

She gritted her teeth and quickly stepped forward to stop Liu Yu, asking angrily:

"Liu Yu, are you blind? Why don't you greet me?"

There was a rare look of surprise on Liu Yu's indifferent face, and he looked at Jiang Xueqing as if she were a fool.

Jiang Xueqing frowned. Such a look made her very disgusted. She strode to Liu Yu and said confidently:

"You and I are both concubines. When the Third Master sees the Second Master, he still has to call him brother. Shouldn't you bow to me?"

He raised his hand to adjust the collar of his shirt, and glanced at Liu Yu with a proud look:

"You don't have to do the kneeling ceremony. Just perform the courtesy of a junior." The tone was completely one of almsgiving.

Lian Baoer came over, pushed Jiang Xueqing away with a palm, stood between the two of them, and cursed directly:

"Are you sick? You're kneeling down to show respect. Where's your dignity? Who do you think you are? You're just a maid. You really think you're so great."

Jiang Xueqing looked at Lian Baoer who was scolding her non-stop, and she was so angry that her chest was filled with anger. Without thinking, she raised her hand and slapped Lian Baoer in the face.

This damn girl really thinks she is the former Jiang Xueqing. How dare an unfavored concubine offend her? Then she will teach her a lesson.

Liu Yu quickly pulled Lian Baoer over, grabbed Jiang Xueqing's wrist, and threw her to the ground with force, glaring at Jiang Xueqing with cold eyes:

"Since you have gone to great lengths to enter the Chen residence, you should be careful with your words and actions. You should know in your heart that you can stand here safely because of how many things others have done to clean up your mess. If you still have a conscience, you should thank the old lady and the gentlemen for their kindness instead of causing unrest in the family."

"I advise you that you must know your own position as a person, so that you can be safe."

After saying that, he shook off Jiang Xueqing's hand, bowed to Chen Xiyao, and took Lian Baoer out of the pavilion.

"Aunt Liu." Chen Xiyao called her.

Liu Yu turned back in confusion: "What's the matter, little aunt?"

Chen Xiyao: "I live in Wutongyuan. If you have time, you can come and sit with me."

After Liu Yu's figure gradually faded away, Chen Xiyao turned and looked at Jiang Xueqing.

"Little aunt, why are you staring at me like that?"
