The Zhu family has a daughter 004 who secretly harbors eccentricities

  The original intention was to have a slender finger suddenly tighten, and the eyes under the light gauze hat flashed with a hint of unusual color. After a few turns of thought, there was already a decision, she bowed to Zhang Zhongxi and broke the deadlock between the two, apologetically saying: "Brother-in-law, this time has already been delayed for a long time, fearing that her mother at home has been waiting for a long time, Fourth Girl cannot help but take leave first."

  Zhang Zhongxi's face turned stern for a moment before he smiled lightly and said, "Fourth sister, take care on your way. Give my regards to Aunt."

  Xiao Heng, who was standing beside him, gently swayed his fan and smiled, "Beautiful lady, slow down, we'll meet again by fate."

  She didn't care about the dispute, but just nodded at Zhang Zhongxu and got into the carriage with two maids. The dark blue and red wooden carriage quickly drove away from the dispersing crowd on the street, leaving behind the gradually fading sound of horse hooves. She didn't know that soon after she left, the second prince and third prince also arrived, and in the end, this drama of competing for the commoner girl was called off due to a stalemate between the two sides.

  "Miss, why are you suddenly in such a hurry to leave?" Lamei finally couldn't help but ask out loud after they had been driving for a while.

  "When have you ever seen Big Brother so enthusiastic?"

  She lay sideways on the imperial couch, one hand resting on a silver-red lotus-patterned pillow, the other holding a book, her black hair scattered, her thin lips slightly parted, her expression bland, with an air of nonchalance, yet her phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, hiding the light that no one could see.

  Su Mei and Duan Mei were both stunned, speechless. All these years, Master Shao had never given them a second glance, yet today he risked offending Xiao Heng, that rascal, just to save a commoner woman - truly, there was more to him than met the eye.

  Lan Mei frowned and muttered: "Miss, could it be that Young Master Biao has taken a liking to that young lady?"

  Who would have thought that before she had finished speaking, she was hit by Su Mei with an elbow. Lian Mei felt pain and rubbed her waist, looking at her with a mixture of grievance and puzzlement.

  She watched their movements with a hint of sarcasm, her eyes darkening slightly as she curled the corner of her lips.

  The carriage galloped for more than a moment before entering the alley and stopping in front of a vermilion gate, where two stone lions sat at the entrance. Looking up, one saw a golden nine-dragon plaque with silver characters inlaid on it, which was exactly the Zhu Mansion.

  Yuan Yi and others entered the west corner gate, passed through the hanging flower gate and the ceremony gate, walked along the red tile green glazed corridor, and soon arrived at Mrs. Zhu's main house. After waiting for a moment at the door, the maid who went to report back quickly returned, taking the three of them to the east compartment.

  The purple sand Guanyin incense burner on the wall was lightly lit, and the warm fragrance filled the room. The maid stood solemnly still, with only an occasional faint crackling sound coming from the charcoal stove, and then there was no more noise. Yuan Yi sat down in a red wooden chair on one side, picked up a silver-white porcelain cup with a flowing cloud pattern, took a light sip of hot tea, closed his eyes slightly, sat upright, and waited patiently.

  In the distance, I faintly heard a woman's soft and gentle voice, accompanied by the crisp sound of fabric rubbing against each other and the collision of jade pendants. The shadowy red silk soft screen in the eastern compartment was lifted by two maidservants wearing red jackets with green satin back aprons, revealing a dignified and stern-looking woman who walked in first. She had a long face, serious eyes, and didn't smile carelessly. Her entire body was clad in a crimson red brocade embroidered silk skirt with gold thread, which made her look even more majestic and noble, her presence overwhelming, making her ordinary facial features stand out even more.

  Behind her were three young girls. The one on the far left had a face that was 70% similar to Mrs., with an ordinary appearance, and the arrogance between her eyebrows made people dislike her. The middle girl was slender and tall, gentle and elegant, pleasant to look at. The girl on the far right was beautiful, wearing a fiery red skirt, with her chin slightly raised, arrogant and self-conceited.

  They were Princess Yuan Yi, Princess Yuan Rou and Princess Yuan Hua.
