Chapter 215: The stick that stirs up trouble is very difficult to deal with
Ji Chuhe saw Liao Yunfei's expression and remained calm.
"Yunfei greets the Crown Prince's wife." Liao Yunfei bowed to Ji Chuhe.
Her posture when performing the salute was much more dignified than that of the three young ladies in the Duke's Mansion. It was as if, as the etiquette maids said, it had been measured with a ruler, exactly to the right degree.
If you didn't know her background, you would think she was a lady brought up by an aristocratic family.
"Sister Yunfei, there's no need to be so polite." Ji Chuhe raised his hand, "Come in and sit down."
"Thank you, Madam." Liao Yunfei sat at the outermost seat at the table.
"This is what we brought from Huaiyang. Sister Yunfei, please try it."
"Sister-in-law, the court doctor said that my cousin can't eat anything too sweet or greasy, so as not to aggravate her condition." Rong Qingqing was afraid that her sister-in-law didn't understand Liao Yunfei and would be cheated by Liao Yunfei.
Then he turned to look at Liao Yunfei and asked, "Right, cousin, you don't have to be embarrassed. If you can't eat, just say so. Don't wait until you feel uncomfortable after eating it. Not only will you suffer, but you will also have to implicate others and get scolded."
Liao Yunfei's face froze and tears welled up in her eyes. Suddenly, she stood up and bent her knees towards Ji Chuhe.
"Madam, I'd better take my leave now."
Rong Qingqing suddenly became anxious, "You can't leave!"
If Liao Yunfei leaves like this, she will definitely be scolded by her mother.
She didn't know where she went wrong.
Anyway, as long as it involves Liao Yunfei, it's all her fault!
"Sister Qingqing, I know you don't like me. In fact, I don't want to appear in front of you all the time to annoy you. I saw you coming to the Crown Prince's wife from afar, and I was worried that it would be impolite if I didn't come, so I came to pay a visit to the Crown Prince's wife."
"Actually, what you really mean is that we three came together without inviting you, right?" Rong Qingqing directly exposed Liao Yunfei's disguise.
"Sister Qingqing, you misunderstood me. I don't know why the misunderstanding between us sisters is so deep." Liao Yunfei's tears were already flowing down in grievance.
"Sister Yunfei." Ji Chuhe suddenly spoke and held Liao Yunfei's hand affectionately.
"Sister Yunfei, you just arrived, why are you leaving? We sisters can take this opportunity to get to know each other better. I just heard that Qingqing didn't mean what you thought. She is just worried about you as her elder sister, afraid that you can't bear it. It's just that she is still young and speaks more directly. You are the elder sister, so you will definitely not argue with her child."
Rong Qingqing was about to open her mouth to refute, but Ji Chuhe gave her a look and she immediately shut her mouth.
Liao Yunfei was caught off guard by Ji Chuhe's words, and she had to think carefully about how to respond.
Ji Chuhe saw through Liao Yunfei's method of tricking Rong Qingqing at a glance.
As long as Rong Qingqing opens her mouth, Liao Yunfei has a hundred things to write about.
Once Rong Qingqing kept silent, Liao Yunfei was at a loss as to what to do.
"Madam, I know that I am of low social status and dare not marry into the Duke's Mansion. However, I really love Qingqing as if she were my own sister. I'm just afraid that she doesn't like me." Liao Yunfei replied to Ji Chuhe after careful consideration.
Rong Qingqing couldn't help but wanted to speak again, but Ji Chuhe's voice sounded before her.
"Ms. Liao, you worry too much. If it were me, I would also like to have a sister who loves me so much."
"Really?" Liao Yunfei asked unconfidently.
"Really." Ji Chuhe nodded solemnly.
The main purpose of Liao Yunfei's visit today was to get to know Ji Chuhe.
Look at what kind of person Ji Chuhe is.
From this point of view, Ji Chuhe is not a vegetarian.
She also knew that everyone in the Duke's Mansion had a good impression of Ji Chuhe, and Princess Huaiyang treated Ji Chuhe like her own daughter.
Xiao Yanan was even more respectful and loving towards Ji Chuhe. Even Xiao Yanan's two aunts had a very close relationship with Ji Chuhe.
When Ji Chuhe becomes the mistress of the house, her position is unshakable.
If Ji Chuhe wasn't so good, she might still have a chance to replace him.
No one knew what Liao Yunfei was thinking at the moment, but as soon as she came, the atmosphere in the room became wrong.
The three sisters, who seemed to have endless things to say, stopped talking.
"Sister Qingqing, you and sisters Lele and Yueyue's hair styles are so beautiful today." Liao Yunfei spoke again, her eyes full of envy.
If someone else had said this, Rong Qingqing would definitely be eager to show off that the jewelry was given to her by her sister-in-law.
But, it was Liao Yunfei who said that!
She didn't even want Liao Yunfei to know where the jewelry came from.
My sister-in-law was far away in Huaiyang, so she had no way of knowing that there was a new guest in the Duke's Mansion, and naturally she couldn't help Liao Yunfei prepare a gift.
If word got out that the three of them had it but Liao Yunfei didn't, people who didn't know the inside story would think that the sister-in-law was partial and looked down on Liao Yunfei, who came from a humble background!
She already knew Liao Yunfei's methods clearly.
However, she was not good at these tricks and disdained them. She always liked to confront Liao Yunfei head-on, which made her suffer losses in front of her elders. Even her mother thought that she was spoiled and not as well-educated as Liao Yunfei.
Ji Chuhe also felt that every word Liao Yunfei said was a trap.
I don't know what the Liao family is like. Are the relationships there complicated? How could they have a personality like Liao Yunfei?
She really didn't prepare any gifts for Liao Yunfei, and she didn't know there was such a person in the Duke's Mansion. So, it was better to have less trouble than more, so she simply didn't make up for it, since her mother had already given it anyway.
"Madam, did you do the makeup for Sister Qingqing and the others? They didn't have this makeup when I saw them just now. Your maids are really good at doing their makeup."
However, Liao Yunfei didn't want this matter to just pass like this.
The Princess of Huaiyang loved the younger generations of the Duke's Mansion, and gave all of them gifts in the name of the Prince of Huaiyang. Although the Princess temporarily gave her a jade token, saying it was a good thing, saying it was a token of peace and safety, it was still far inferior to the gifts given to the young masters and ladies of the Duke's Mansion!
The prince brought gifts for the young masters, and Ji Chuhe prepared gifts for the young ladies. This is the etiquette between peers.
Ji Chuhe didn't take her seriously at all, and was too lazy to even try to fool her with a small gift.
When Rong Qingqing heard this, she felt that Liao Yunfei was going to cause trouble again!
It would be fine if he wanted to cause trouble for her, but if he wanted to cause trouble for her sister-in-law, she would never let Liao Yunfei go!
"Liao Yunfei, that's enough!" Rong Qingqing shouted angrily.
"Qingqing." Ji Chuhe said lightly, then pulled Rong Qingqing to his side and reached out to touch the tassels on the crown on her head.
"Sister Yunfei, this is the headgear I asked a craftsman from Huaiyang to make for the three sisters. You think it looks good, right?"
"Yes, it's very beautiful. There are no such beautiful styles in the imperial capital." Liao Yunfei has always been very picky about jewelry. She thinks this headpiece is beautiful.
