Chapter 59 Huo Aying, you are looking for a fight

South Hall.

Guan Mengzhu was like a proud peacock at this moment, dazzling and unparalleled.

In contrast, Huo Aying, who was already sitting upright, was wearing an extremely simple dress with only a silver hairpin on her head. If there was anything unique about her, it was only the flower on her forehead that gave her a surprise.

"Tsk! After all, you are a poor family, yet you have such low-end things. Which noble lady is so shabby?" Guan Mengzhu couldn't help but sneer.

Feng Nanping also sneered at Huo Aying, "I thought Prince Rui would buy Miss Aying a few more sets of clothes to go out. Otherwise, if you look so shabby, someone who doesn't know would think she's a maid."

Ah Ying was not angry or annoyed, as if it had nothing to do with her, "Ah Ying is not like you. It is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality. It is better to stay simple."

"Hmph! Wild boars can't eat fine bran!" Guan Mengzhu teased.

A little later, voices rang out from outside the door: "Madam is here! The prince is here!"

Ah Ying glanced towards the door and saw Guan Yulan and Xie Chengyi coming in.

Xie Chengyi's eyes seemed to be searching for a scent, and they were fixed on Huo Aying who was wearing a plain skirt and smiling faintly.

Ah Ying smiled, nodded, lowered her eyebrows, and with just one glance, she looked away. Even though Xie Chengyi looked at her three times, Ah Ying just ignored him...

Guan Yulan looked around calmly, feeling heavy in her heart. The two daughters-in-law of the Guan family were dressed more elegantly than her. Then she looked at Shule and Mengzhu, each one more gorgeous than the other.

On the other hand, Aying, who was hiding in the corner, was extremely plain and simple.

"Madam, the eldest lady is feeling a little unwell. We have sent people to deliver gifts to the two rooms. We can start now." Mother Wang approached Guan Yulan and said.

Guan Yulan knew that Hejun never liked Qingzhou's aunts, so she just refused to see them.

Guan Yulan looked around leisurely. Everyone had different expressions. They seemed to have noticed her abnormality. She calmed down and said with a polite smile, "Come on, let's raise our glasses. I hope that the Hou Mansion and Guan Mansion will get better and better!"

As Guan Yulan smiled dignified and elegantly, everyone raised their glasses to celebrate.

Feng Nanping was the first to flatter and smile and said, "Sister, it's unorthodox to say these things. We are all a family, so naturally we hope that the two families can be as good as one family."

With Xie Chengyi present, Feng Nanping did not act rashly.

Yue Qiuyan said, "That's exactly what my sister-in-law said. Shuer, hurry up and pour a glass of wine for your brother Chengyi. You have to move around more in the future."

With a glance, Guan Shuer stood up properly, walked towards Xie Chengyi, handed the wine to him with a shy, gentle and sweet voice, and said softly, "Brother Chengyi."

Xie Chengyi raised his eyes slightly, and saw Huo Aying looking at him with a clear expression, as if everything had nothing to do with her. Even though he was a little angry, even the dumbest person could see that his mother wanted to test his attitude towards his two cousins, but Huo Aying didn't care at all.

"I'm afraid I'll have to trouble my brother more in the future at Hou Mansion." Guan Shuer's voice was sweet and very comfortable.

It was not known whether he was angry or testing, but Xie Chengyi, who never easily approached women, took the wine handed to him by Guan Shuer for the first time and drank it all in one gulp!

"Of course!" Xie Chengyi didn't look directly at Guan Shule, and his voice sounded a little distant and cold.

"Thank you, Brother Chengyi..." Guan Shuer's face was clearly filled with shyness.

“No need.” It was unknown whether Xie Chengyi really didn’t know or was pretending not to understand, as he didn’t respond to Shule’s affectionate gaze.

However, Guan Shuer, who was full of tenderness and sweetness, had all the words she had prepared blocked out, and she could only walk away hurriedly with a blushing face.

When Feng Nanping saw Xie Chengyi accept Guan Shule's wine, she became jealous and kept poking her daughter, asking her to go up.

Guan Mengzhu quickly stood up, her eyes seemed to be fixed on Xie Chengyi, she ran over like flying, and only took a few breaths when she got to him, her heart pounding as she said, "Cheng, Brother Chengyi, Mengzhu is afraid that I will bother you more in the future..."

Xie Chengyi didn't say anything either, he just took the wine and drank it all.

However, his eyes always wandered around Aying, but the more he looked, the more restless Xie Chengyi seemed to become.

Huo Aying had been thinking about new music, wondering how to make it more catchy, and before he knew it, he felt someone standing in front of him.

When I looked up, it was Guan Shule who was smiling.

Huo Aying stood up immediately and said softly, "Sister Shuer."

Guan Shuer picked up the wine glass calmly, "It is fate that we met in the Hou Mansion. In the future, I hope Sister Ying can give me more advice." Huo Ying quickly said modestly, "Sister Shuer, you are joking. Ying is incompetent and cannot teach you. It is you who should give me advice."

Guan Shuer raised her cup and said, "Let's not say these polite words to each other, we should just get along well from now on."

Ah Ying smiled faintly, "Thank you, Sister Shuer, for your kindness."

"I heard that sister Aying and Prince Rui are a perfect match. Tomorrow, sister will take advantage of sister's help to get to know Prince Rui." Guan Shuer smiled.

Ah Ying accepted it all and nodded, "Of course."

Xie Chengyi couldn't help but frown at this sentence.

Guan Yulan said at the right time: "That's not the case. If Ah Ying can become the Princess of Rui, it will be a blessing for our Guan family."

Ah Ying knew very well that Guan Yulan didn't want her to get involved with Xie Chengyi, but it was obvious that someone didn't want to hear this.

"Prince Rui and A Ying are just friends, don't make such jokes!" Xie Chengyi said coldly.

Yue Qiuyan was startled, thinking that Xie Chengyi felt it was not worth it for King Rui, and then smiled and said, "This is just our own opinion, and Ah Ying has to work hard, right?"

Unexpectedly, Xie Chengyi looked straight at her and said, "Even if he took the initiative to propose, Ying would not agree!"

Yue Qiuyan's face turned red and white at this sentence, and she felt extremely embarrassed.

Feng Nanping also looked at Xie Chengyi's expression and pondered this sentence.

Guan Mengzhu, who was dressed up, was staring at Huo Aying with dissatisfaction, thinking that everything was messed up by her. And Chengyi's eyes never left Huo Aying, which also made Guan Mengzhu unhappy. Why did Huo Aying steal the limelight as soon as she came?

Guan Yulan couldn't help laughing and said awkwardly: "Come on, come on, drink some wine."

Ah Ying, who became the target of public criticism, took a break to take a breath and came out of the South Hall.

As soon as I stepped down the stairs, I met Wang Changyue who was patrolling.

Ah Ying nodded slightly, and just as she was about to leave, she suddenly heard a voice behind her: "Prince Rui is not someone you can control!"

"Prince Rui is treacherous and reckless. He must be looking for you with bad intentions!" Wang Changyue said worriedly behind Aying.

Ah Ying moved slightly, turned slowly, and said softly to Wang Changyue: "Thank you for the reminder, Master Wang."

"Aying, I'm serious, you can't be with him!" Wang Changyue couldn't help getting anxious when he saw that Aying remained calm.

After so long, Ah Ying could indeed see that Wang Changyue was not that sinister young man. He could only be said to be blindly loyal. With a look of understanding, she explained word by word: "We—are not together."

"Even if you choose the prince, you can't choose him, understand?" Wang Changyue didn't want to hurt her. Perhaps Aying's indifferent expression hurt Wang Changyue, and he got hot-headed and blurted out these words.

Ah Ying was stunned.

Before Ah Ying could answer, she heard a sarcastic laugh from behind her, saying sarcastically, "No wonder! I was wondering why Brother Chengyi always protected you? So you were secretly hooking up with Brother Chengyi?"

Wang Changyue quickly stepped forward and stood in front of Huo Aying, "Miss Mengzhu has misunderstood!"

Guan Mengzhu didn't think it was a misunderstanding, and immediately sneered: "Misunderstanding? She is clearly playing you guys around! What kind of serious girl is this? I think she is just a nine-tailed fox!"

Ah Ying turned her head and glanced at Guan Mengzhu who had a malicious look on her face, and said fearlessly: "Miss Mengzhu, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want!"

But after the meal, Guan Mengzhu, who was ridiculed and treated coldly, had already transferred her anger to Ah Ying and shouted directly: "Speak? Why can't I speak? It's Brother Chengyi who you hooked up with!"

Ah Ying was almost laughing at Guan Mengzhu. How could there be such a stupid person? She immediately said, "What? Xie Chengyi can only belong to you?"

"Anyway, I'm better than you!" Guan Mengzhu was choked by Aying's words.

Ah Ying said disdainfully: "Then I wish all your wishes come true, young lady..."

Guan Mengzhu's face flushed red, and he immediately raised his hand and said angrily: "Huo Aying, you want a fight!"

A Ying: This guy is a typical cannon fodder.
