Chapter 54 - Hypocrisy

Xiao Jin An was unable to get anything out of Xiao Jin, so he could only give up and bid his farewell.

The Aunt Lan sent Wei Lan Yi to the currently settled down Fu Siping.

Wei Ruo Yi was half-leaning on the soft couch, gnawing on a chicken leg. She had sent Lv E out of the Duke Palace to buy the chicken leg earlier.

You're starving her, okay?

This was Gongbei King Palace, not Marquis's Mansion. She couldn't just ask him for food right?

Carrying the good tradition of self-reliance and sufficient food, Wei Ruo Yi simply did not ask for help from others. In any case, Lv E had already gone out to bring some money, so he could just buy it.

Seeing that someone had entered, Wei Ruo Yi was afraid that it was Princess Gongbei. In his anxiousness, he immediately placed the chicken leg between the soft couch and himself, using his body to block the person.

He casually wiped his mouth, swallowed the meat in his mouth, and rubbed his oily hands on his skirt for a bit. Wei Ruo Yi immediately closed his eyes and pretended to be weak. It would be troublesome if she was allowed to stand up and bow. There was even a chicken leg that was half-eaten behind her butt. So be a bit more delicate. Even if she 'struggled' to get up, the princess would still feel embarrassed. She had to be pressed down so the chicken leg wouldn't be exposed.

"County Owner, someone has come to see you." The servant girl from the Gongbei King Palace came to report, only then did Wei Ruo Yi open his eyes. He thought it was the princess who had come to nibble on her chicken drumstick in front of her master. That wasn't a good idea. Wasn't this disguised as saying that she wouldn't give him anything to eat? This is a slap to the face, do you know? Even though she really didn't give it to him ?

On the other hand, she was the one who had frightened herself. The sun had just set and Princess Gongbei should still be accompanying her.

After all, the blind date event would only truly end after lunch.

Seeing Aunt Lan and Wei Lan Yi, and finding out that Chen Fei actually wanted her to stay here to accompany him, Wei Ruo Yi's eyes widened even more. They were accompanied by the steward of the manor.

"Elder Sis doesn't like me to accompany you?" Wei Lan Yi asked carefully as she fidgeted with the corner of her clothes.

"No." Wei Ruo Yi shook his head, then blinked his eyes.

It was really impossible to guard against!

Aunt Lan is so capable!

He could even find a way to bring Wei Lan Yi here, and even see him in the Esteemed Empress Chen! Even Wei Ruo Yi couldn't help but give a thumbs up at the bottom of his heart.

She had yet to settle the score with them regarding the rouge and cosmetic powder. Although there was currently no evidence saying that it was Aunt Lan who had done it, if something happened to her, who would benefit the most? Hehe.

She wanted to talk to Lv E and her son later, that she had finished packing her things, and should not let Wei Lan Yi tire herself, if he had too many things, and made her make some powder, then, if her wounds did not heal for ten days to half a month, then she would have to stay here for a long time, wouldn't Wei Lan Yi be able to stay with her at the Duke Palace for a long time?

It wasn't that she was petty, it was that Aunt Lan really worried her a bit.

"It's fine if you come. I was just worrying about not knowing anyone here and not knowing anyone." Wei Ruo Yi laughed. Where do you live? Does the Palace have any arrangements? "

"The steward of the Prince's estate said just now that he would let me live in this courtyard so it would be convenient for me to take care of you." Wei Lan Yi said nervously.

This Elder Sis of hers was extremely unreliable. If it were really because she didn't like living here and caused a ruckus, it would be difficult for her to lose face.

"You always like peace and quiet. I make so much noise!" Wei Ruo Yi frowned, "I'm afraid it's not appropriate for you to live together with me!"

"Elder Sis ?" Wei Lan Yi immediately looked like she was about to cry. She was born with a delicate and elegant appearance, this grievance was like a little orchid that had suffered the wind and rain, it was really pitiful.

Wei Ruo Yi's teeth immediately hurt.

She touched her chin. Compared to Wei Lan Yi's small appearance, she did look like the naughty and naughty girl in novels.

She just didn't want to live with Wei Lan Yi. Why? Although she didn't want to do anything, she didn't like Wei Lan Yi glaring at her like a tiger watching its prey.

Furthermore, didn't Wei Lan Yi come to show his face in front of the Gongbei King Palace and Fourth Prince?

Her appearing was her business, so don't use her as a foil.

Take for example, when comparing himself and Wei Lan Yi's wronged appearance, a man would have felt pity for Wei Lan Yi.

Hehe! He wanted to drag her along with him to set off her delicate and quiet, but there was no way! I won't give you this chance!

To say that she was overbearing would be overbearing. So what if she was overbearing?!

"County Owner, this is the Gongbei King Palace, I am afraid it cannot allow the County Owner to do this." The Aunt Lan chimed in.

Wei Ruo Yi glared at Aunt Lan, who immediately went silent. She understood that even though she was Wei Ruo Yi's elder, even though Wei Ruo Yi had the title on him, she was only an aunt.

Seeing this situation, Eunuch Cheng knew that the Chong'an County Lord did not like living with others. He hurriedly cupped his fists and bowed, "It was this servant who made the wrong arrangements. The yard next door was still empty. Since there was no one living there, she could just let the Second Miss live inside. It's just a wall away from here, so it's very convenient. "

"Thank you for your understanding, Eunuch Cheng." Wei Ruo Yi smiled faintly at the head eunuch from the Gongbei King Palace. "If the wangfei asks, just say that I'm snoring in my sleep, and it'll cause trouble for Second Sister if she doesn't get enough rest."

The corners of Eunuch Cheng's mouth twitched when he heard this, but he still responded with a furrow of his eyebrows.

The Aunt Lan put down all the clothes she brought from home, then accompanied Wei Lan Yi to the yard next door, which was led by Eunuch Cheng, and placed Wei Lan Yi down.

Only after everyone had left did Wei Ruo Yi pull out the chicken leg that was hidden behind her body. Wei Ruo Yi heaved a long sigh.

Aunt Lan could not stay in the Duke Palaces for long, she could only stay in a place where Eunuch Cheng could not see for awhile.

The sun was setting. The servants in the mansion had long since hung up on the trees of the Red Leaf Courtyard. All kinds of lanterns were lit under the veranda. The first rays of the setting sun shone, making the Red Leaf Courtyard appear more auspicious and prosperous.

From time to time, there would be mixed sounds of laughter coming from the Red Leaf Courtyard.

Wei Lan Yi stood in the courtyard and looked up, but he could see nothing, only the roof of the house.

The door opened and Wei Ruo Yi came out wearing a new set of clothes with the support of Lv Rui and Lv E.

"You want to go?" Wei Ruo Yi leaned on the door, and asked slowly as he looked at Wei Lan Yi who was in the midst of raising his head.

Wei Lan Yi was startled, she looked back, and immediately turned and lowered her head, "I am here to serve Elder Sis, how would I think about such things." she whispered.

"Hypocritical!" Wei Ruo Yi chuckled and said.
