Chapter 85
"I don't know where Sister Lan is at this moment? I haven't seen her for a long time, and I also want to talk to her in my heart."

I'm afraid this talk is false, but the truth is the word of mouth.

"Maybe it's in her own small courtyard. I'll just send Shuqin to take a look." Shen Xi said, "You don't need to worry, Sister Lan is not the kind of person who steals people's love. You can have a good time with her." Tell me, she will understand you."

Jiang Ruixi had a smile on her face, but she had already made up her mind that if this Shen Lan didn't know how to advance and retreat, she would definitely make her look good.

She, Jiang Ruixi, is not easy to get along with.

"This matter is still troublesome for Qingxuan." Jiang Ruixi slapped her head: "By the way, I just forgot when I was in a hurry. I even brought a gift for Qingxuan when I came."

"What gift?" Shen Xi said.

"Come here and have a look, it must be something you like." Jiang Ruixi happily asked the maid to take out something: "It took me a long time to choose this one."

Tao Hong opened a sandalwood box, and inside it was a high-quality suet white jade, carved into the shape of a peony, with fine workmanship, it is definitely a masterpiece.

"How do you know that I like this!" Shen Xi's eyes suddenly lit up: "As expected, you understand my thoughts best."

She usually likes to collect some messy things, and the more expensive things, the more she likes them.

This mutton fat white jade is not only good-looking, but also "expensive".

Jiang Ruixi covered her mouth and smiled: "Of course, what is your relationship with me?"

While the two were talking, Shuqin walked in with Shen Lan: "Princess, Miss Jiang, is it a coincidence? I just walked out, and I ran into Miss Lan, so the two of us went together Woke up."

Shen Lan didn't know that Jiang Ruixi liked Xu Yi'an, just now she was found by Shen Changming, and told her that she wanted to see Xu Yi'an for her, on the way back, he passed by Shen Xi's courtyard, and ran into Shuqin.

Because of Shen Xi's presence, Jiang Ruixi did not show her dislike for Shen Lan too clearly, everyone knew that Shen Xi doted on this younger sister very much.

Shen Lan sharp-eyed saw the mutton fat white jade in Shen Xi's hand, it cost thousands of taels anyway, and her monthly money was only 40 taels, and sometimes Shen Changqiu snatched it away.

She has been in the Prime Minister's Mansion for so many years, except for the fact that Zhao and her grandmother gave them red envelopes during festivals, she basically had no extra income.

Because she wants to deal with others to expand her network, and because of her background, many noble ladies disdain to associate with her, so she can only approach them with a shy face, and she also knows in her heart that these people will associate with her But it was because of Shen Xi.

In the past three years, she and Shen Xi haven't seen each other face to face, she has been left out everywhere, and the reasons for this period can be seen.

Shen Xi is different from her. Although they are from the same clan, Shen Xi has a powerful father and mother who is a princess. As a married couple, no one would dare to underestimate her in the court, let alone in the circle of those noble girls.

Shen Lan only has jealousy and resentment towards Shen Xi in her heart, so why is she so famous that all good things revolve around her?

But she didn't realize at all how many people she could feed with her 40 taels among the people, and she didn't expect that all the things she wore today were brought to her by Shen Xi.

"Look, Sister Lan really is more and more attractive." Jiang Ruixi said: "I have prepared a gift for Sister Lan this time, Tao Hong, bring it here."

What she prepared for Shen Lan was a red jade bracelet. Although the appearance was not bad, it was far worse than the suet white jade in Shen Xi's hand.

This red jade bracelet costs only 100 taels if it is exhausted.

But Shen Lan didn't dare to buy even the 100 taels.

Although Shen Lan held grudges in her heart, she obediently accepted the bracelet: "Lan'er, thank you sister Zi Nan."

"You don't need to thank me. I just borrowed flowers to present Buddha. This bracelet was given by a concubine of mine. As you know, I always have a lot of jewelry. I wear this one today and the other tomorrow. Speaking of which, this is the only one I didn't wear." It's been, you said that you can't give away your own used things, right?" Jiang Ruixi smiled innocently.

Jiang Ruixi did it on purpose. She knew that Shen Lan was poor, so she chose this bracelet for her on purpose.

This bracelet has been around for some years, and it has been eating dust in the jewelry box. She has always looked down on these concubine children. Among the nobles in the capital, the difference between the concubine and the concubine is as big as heaven and earth.

Shen Lan desperately squeezed in, the only thing she could talk about was her identity as the first daughter.

But her background, whether she is a prostitute or not is not important to them.

Jiang Ruixi made it clear that she was humiliating Shen Lan, but Shen Lan couldn't even say a rebuttal, and could only smash her teeth and swallow it in her stomach.

Shen Xi snickered in her heart, she knew that Jiang Ruixi would not make Shen Lan proud.

"Come on, try it on, sister Lan has good skin, so it will definitely look good on you."

After speaking, Jiang Ruixi took Shen Lan's hand and put the bracelet on for her, and then looked at it carefully: "Let me just say, this bracelet is really pretty and tight."

Shen Lan's complexion was already very ugly, but she didn't dare to offend Jiang Ruixi, so she could only cast her eyes on Shen Xi for help.

Shen Xi also knows the truth of accepting as soon as you see something good: "Okay, okay, Zi Nan, don't you have something to talk to Sister Lan this time?"

Jiang Ruixi's smile slightly restrained: "Qingxuan disagreed, but I forgot to tell you. By the way, sister Lan, I heard that you are going to talk about marriage with that young master of the Xu family?"

Shen Lan's heart skipped a beat. Originally, she really wanted to climb up to Xiao Che, but now that her grandmother already knew about it, it was impossible for her to marry into the palace again, so she wanted to settle for the next best thing. If she could marry Xu Yi'an It's a good thing to have a kiss.

It's just that Jiang Ruixi's question now has revealed the matter.

"I don't know how sister Zi Nan knew about this?" Shen Lan was puzzled, she just knew about this, how did Jiang Ruixi know about it?
Jiang Ruixi said: "Of course I have my own ideas, and I don't know what Sister Lan thinks of Young Master Xu?"

Shen Lan naturally knew what Jiang Ruixi meant, she was obviously interested in Xu Yi'an, so she used this to beat herself!

It is estimated that she is always paying attention to the movements in the servant's mansion, so she can know this matter.

Jiang Ruixi is the daughter-in-law of the Duke's Mansion, and her status is much higher than hers. If the two really fight, the Minister's Mansion will definitely choose Jiang Ruixi.

Shen Lan looked down at the bracelet on her wrist, feeling extremely glaring.

 In ancient times, only married women could take characters. Unmarried women are not allowed. I am here simply to make it sound better. Don’t get too entangled.
