concubines are respected

Chapter 62
The young servant in Tsing Yi's words contained double syllables, which seemed to refer to the fish basin, but in fact they had other meanings, even a fool could understand Wu Ye's meaning.

Lin Zhilan's complexion changed immediately when she heard the words, the smile on her delicate face froze, the arm that was teasing the fish stopped, and she stepped forward and asked in a deep voice, "What do you mean, isn't the fish basin lifted? Is it the wrong place?"

The young man in Tsing Yi was stunned, and said with a blank expression, "I lifted the wrong land? It's nothing, my master made it clear that the fish basin was sent to the second lady's Yixiang Pavilion, no matter how useless the servant is, it's a simple matter." But I dare not make mistakes in my errands, how can I say that I am wrong!"

The situation took a turn for the worse, Lin Zhilan's face turned blue and white, she stared angrily at the leisurely swimming fish in the basin, her hands tightly twisted the silk in her hands, her body trembled slightly, it seemed that she was trying to control her emotions so as not to attack.

Outside the gate, butler Lin hurried back before he could stop the servant, seeing that something was wrong, and he dared to come in there to make fun of himself, so he only poked his head for a little observation, and hurried away in big strides.

Su Xian shook her head helplessly, and said to the servant, "Brother, it's almost time, if you don't go out, I'm afraid you won't be able to catch up with your master."

"Second Miss said that the slave is resigning." Jing Suxian reminded, the servant didn't delay any longer, cupped his fists as a salute, turned around and exited Yixiang Pavilion.

The servant left, Suxian and Lin Zhilan remained silent, the atmosphere was extremely awkward, the two sisters stood quietly aside with their own concerns.The servants serving beside her were even more tense and took deep breaths, not even daring to breathe out.

After a long time, Lin Zhilan suddenly burst out laughing without warning, "Hahaha, congratulations to Second Sister, congratulations to Second Sister, I never thought that Second Sister would make Fifth Master fall in love with me without saying a word, sister, I was mistaken! "

Her tone was soft, but she couldn't hide her gnashing of teeth. Without waiting for Suxian to take the words, Lin Zhilan continued, "It's just that the second sister probably forgot that you have a marriage contract. Even if you can't marry Annanhou after three years... House, but she is already a daughter-in-law who has never been married to others. Now that this house has won the favor of Fifth Master, I don’t know what Second Sister should say!"

Suxian was silent for a short while, calmed down a little, raised her head and said with a faint smile, "Eldest sister misunderstood. Since ancient times, marriages have always been ordered by parents. How can you give an explanation for the matchmaker's words. Although Suxian doesn't know the fifth master What kind of person is he, but he can also see that the fifth master is not from an ordinary family, so he dares to be delusional. Now it's just a gift of two fish, why bother to think about it."

The more Suxian said lightly, the more ugly Lin Zhilan's face became.

Back then, I had my heart set on Annan Xiaohou, but because of my father's partial favor, I didn't dare to think too much.These days, if it wasn't for my mother's constant enlightenment, how could I get away from the grief of not being related to An Nanhou.

Now, after my elder brother introduced the Fifth Prince who was aliased as 'Fifth Lord', I finally regained my spirits and vaguely saw a bright future. Unexpectedly, everything changed overnight.Fifth Master not only left without saying goodbye, but also ordered someone to send a fish bowl to Yixiang Pavilion to please him.

All the good things in the world were taken by Lin Suxian alone.But she still put on an innocent face that has nothing to do with her.Could this be the vicious nature that my mother always talks about, she always has a way to make a man bow down under the pomegranate's skirt without moving a single soldier, and is willing to become a vassal!
Seeing Lin Zhilan's resentful eyes, Suxian had no intention of discussing this disturbing topic with her.

In fact, according to Suxian's temperament, if she is really interested in Fifth Master, why would she worry about provoking Lin Zhilan's mother and daughter.Simply, the enmity between the two was not formed in a day, and I am not afraid of adding another one.

But the fifth master really made Suxian dislike him, if she really let herself marry this person, Suxian would be very unhappy.Even if he is the current prince, so what!

That's why Suxian intentionally covered up the matter of the fish basin, and didn't want to make more gossip in the mansion.It is really unwise to stir up trouble for a person who has nothing to do with him.

Seeing Lin Zhilan's expression, it seemed that she had already decided that she intended to compete with her, Suxian felt dumbfounded.In the original marriage letter of Annanhou's mansion, she and the eldest lady were extremely hostile to him, and now there is a fifth master, which makes the other party more resentful, so why not let Suxian feel depressed.

In the blink of an eye, Suxian thought about it a thousand times, fixed her eyes on the exquisite celadon fish bowl, and suddenly had a temporary solution.

"Xiangcao, put these two colored carps in a container and put them in the blue lotus pond. How can such a small place like Yixiang Pavilion accommodate such a noble thing." Suxian said softly without any surprise .

"Ah!? Second Miss, this, I'm afraid it's inappropriate. If Fifth Master finds out, what should I do?" Xiang Cao said hesitantly.

If Xiangcao didn't know the real identity of the fifth master, she wouldn't have any objection to this move, but she already knew the identity of the other prince, so how dare she dispose of the gift he gave so lightly.

"What's wrong, since he gave it to me, it belongs to me. Do I have to report to him what I want to do with it?" Suxian didn't care, and replied seriously.

Immediately looking at the fish bowl, he said meaningfully, "Although the celadon fish bowl is of high quality and exquisite workmanship, it restricts the freedom of the fish. Even if the fifth master really sends the so-called luxurious utensils in exchange for , so what, it is also used for detention anyway. Just like, a sparrow trapped in a golden birdcage, let it eat fine clothes and drink fine nectar every day, is not as comfortable as an ordinary bird that roams the sky."

As she said that, Suxian smiled in her eyes, looked at Zhilan, seemed to be talking to her, and continued to speak as if talking to herself, "In my opinion, although these two colorful carps are pampered, they are not as good as those in the backyard." The ordinary carp in the blue lotus pond live happily. It’s fine if others don’t notice it. Since I’ve thought it through, why should I be a prisoner and take their freedom forcibly. Let’s put it in the pond , let them be at ease!"

After finishing speaking, Suxian walked slowly towards Lin Zhilan, her eyes flashed with inspiration, a pair of beautiful dimples smiled faintly, Yingsheng asked, "Elder sister, do you think Suxian's words are reasonable?"

Lin Zhilan couldn't understand Suxian's implication, she was slightly taken aback, and said with a serious expression, "Since it belongs to the second sister, it is the second sister's freedom to do what the second sister wants to do with it. Why bother to make a lot of irrelevant things?" Words say."

Then, she stiffened her neck and looked aside, obviously although Lin Zhilan understood the meaning of Suxian's words, she still didn't take it seriously.

Suxian smiled and pointed to Vanilla with her eyes.Vanilla doesn't say much anymore, at this time, vanilla has already understood the matter of Suxian borrowing the colorful carp, alluding to her thoughts on the matter of the fifth prince in her heart.This reminds Ling Zhilan that she has no intention of fighting.

"I'll do it now, servant girl." Xiang Cao hurriedly fetched the wooden basin, carefully scooped two colored carps into the wooden basin with a wooden ladle, and then walked out.

When the fish entered the basin, the space suddenly became much narrower. The fish flopped and fluttered in the basin uncomfortably, splashing crystal water droplets and scattering them everywhere. The vanilla dress was stained with water. , the splashed water sprinkled a little on Lin Zhilan's skirt.

Lin Zhilan shook the water stains on the corner of her dress, and said to Yin Xiu in a firm voice, "Come back with me to change." After speaking, she stopped greeting Suxian and walked out.

"Elder sister, let's go." Suxian said to Lin Zhilan's leaving back very politely, but only got a cold snort in return.

"Second Miss, this servant doesn't quite understand. You let the fish go so well. The Eldest Miss was so angry at first, why didn't she stop trying to make things difficult for you. Where did you come from?" Cui Ya saw that there were no outsiders. , Only then did he shake out the doubts that were suppressed in his heart.

Suxian turned around and looked at Cui Ya who was full of question marks, and couldn't help but chuckle.This girl's brain is always not as good as that of vanilla, if vanilla has already understood, she still asks like a fog.

Seeing this, Yanzi burst out laughing, pointing at Cui Ya and teasingly said, "Sister Cui Ya works quickly and is loyal to the second lady, but she is just a bit stupid. I have already understood the truth, why don't you Ask stupidly here."

"You girl, how dare you make fun of me!" Cui Ya saw that the youngest Yan Zi also understood the way, her cheeks flushed immediately, and she stomped her feet in disbelief.

Seeing Cuiya's sullen expression, Yanzi immediately said, "Let's put it this way, the colorful carp in the fish bowl is like our second lady, and the fish bowl is like Yixiang Pavilion. As for the fifth master, he said that he will send it in the future to be more suitable for her." The matching luxurious utensils are the prince's mansion. Think about it, if you were that colorful carp, would you rather stay in a basin, a gold, copper and jade vessel, or stay in a blue lotus pond?"

Yanzi spoke in detail for a while, and Cui Ya finally understood, "Of course I would like to go to the Bihe Pond, how nice it is to be free!"

"That's right, so our second lady released the colored carp in front of the eldest lady, to tell her that we don't care about the position of imperial concubine. No matter how rich and noble the day is, it can't compare with It’s a joy to live freely.”

"Your servant understands." Cui Ya suddenly realized, "However, I don't know if the eldest lady also understands. I don't know if she listened to her because of the displeasure on her face just now."

Su Xian's eyes were deep, and she looked out of Yixiang Pavilion, "Of course my eldest sister understands. There are many people in the world who understand such a simple truth. It's just those who can really see through, see through, and successfully resist the glory and wealth. How much? Well, I just need to express my heart, so as not to get in the way of people's eyes, the rest is beyond my power!"

After finishing speaking, Suxian stepped up and walked towards the main room. After taking two steps, she glanced at the empty celadon fish bowl on the stone table, pursed her lips and smiled, "Swallow, you are so strong that you can take this fish bowl away when you have time." Put it in the backyard."

"Your servant understands. I won't let it spoil the second young lady's good spirits. Hehe!" Yanzi responded jokingly.

Suxian smiled and said nothing, stepped into the main room, and the Yixiang Pavilion returned to calm.
