Chapter 470 Unexpected
"My dear elders, since this is the carriage from Prince Kang's Mansion, it must be the third sister who has returned. Yao'er is coming home today, and the third sister must have come back to see Yao'er like the eldest sister. Let's go and see her. We can't ignore the third sister and let His Royal Highness Prince Kang think that our mansion is rude."
The meaning of Lin Qingyao's words was obvious. Since Lin Qingrou came so ostentatiously in the carriage of Prince Kang's Mansion, the Marquis' Mansion could not neglect her.
Otherwise, Prince Kang would definitely be dissatisfied with the Marquis' Mansion. If he used this as an excuse to do something, it would be very disadvantageous to the Marquis' Mansion.
Lin Yanzhe naturally understood his daughter's reminder and nodded.
"Yao'er is right. Since it is the carriage of Prince Kang's palace, let's go and take a look. Let's find out who the distinguished guest is."
Everyone had no choice but to turn back and go back to the gate.
At this time, the people in the carriage also showed up. Everyone was not surprised to see Lin Qingrou, but what they didn't expect was that Xiao Jingyi was following behind her.
No one expected Xiao Jingyi to come. How could the dignified Prince Kang accompany a concubine back to her parents' home?
It seems that Xiao Jingyi really dotes on Lin Qingrou. Even though it is unreasonable, Xiao Jingyi still came regardless of everyone's opinions.
Lin Qingrou's complexion is rosy today, and she looks radiant, as if she is in a good mood.
Although she was just getting off a carriage, Lin Qingrou acted so arrogantly that people who didn't know her would have thought she was a princess.
Qiuju and Yuting supported her on both sides. Lin Qingrou twisted her waist very slowly and took every step very carefully, fearing that she might make a mistake if she stepped unsteadily.
Others didn't know that Lin Qingrou was "pregnant" and they all sneered at the situation.
Even Lin Qingyao, the Princess of Chen, doesn't put on such airs, but she, a concubine, is the first to do so. It's really unreasonable.
But no one expressed their thoughts. After all, Xiao Jingyi followed behind her and he didn't say anything, so how could others dare to have any opinions?
When everyone saw Xiao Jingyi, they still bowed respectfully and naturally ignored Lin Qingrou, the little concubine.
Unlike Jamel Xiao, Jamel Xiao obviously enjoyed the feeling of being respected and smiled with great satisfaction.
"Please don't be polite, everyone. I am here with Rou'er to visit the elders today. We are all family, so there is no need to be polite."
Xiao Jingyi's words were quite polite, but compared with Xiao Jingxuan's performance just now, Xiao Jingyi's words seemed less sincere, and could even be said to be a bit hypocritical.
One truly treats them as his own family, while the other only says so to show his closeness to the people, but in reality he doesn't really think that way at all.
The difference in the two people's attitudes is immediately apparent.
Xiao Jingxuan and Lin Qingyao did not expect that Xiao Jingyi would appear here today, especially Lin Qingyao, who immediately felt that her good mood was ruined and she felt very unlucky.
One Lin Qingrou is not enough. This pair of scumbag and bitch actually appeared at the same time. They are deliberately trying to make things difficult for her.
Jamel Xiao noticed Lin Qingyao's mood changes, and secretly held Lin Qingyao's hand behind her back, silently comforting her.
With Jamel Xiao's comfort, Lin Qingyao quickly adjusted her mood, patted Jamel Xiao's hand, and signaled him to rest assured.
Don't hit a smiling person. Since Xiao Jingyi said it so righteously, Xiao Jingxuan naturally had to greet him with a smile.
What's more, today is Yao'er's special day when she returns home. Xiao Jingxuan doesn't want to ruin such a good day, and he doesn't plan to have an unpleasant experience with Xiao Jingyi.
So Jamel Xiao chuckled and said, “Fourth brother, what a coincidence, I didn’t expect that we brothers would meet here today.”
Xiao Jingyi nodded and agreed, "It's quite a coincidence. I came back with Rou'er today and didn't expect to see my fifth brother and his wife in the Marquis' Mansion. I haven't formally congratulated you two yet. I just happened to meet you today, so I'll congratulate you two on your marriage."
The two were speechless after hearing this. Is there anyone in the entire capital who doesn't know that Lin Qingyao is coming back home today? Why is Xiao Jingyi pretending to be stupid?
Besides, it’s not like he didn’t go to the wedding, so how could he not know this?
Seeing that Xiao Jingyi was so hypocritical, Xiao Jingxuan didn't bother to be polite with him.
"Fourth brother, you are joking. This is my father-in-law's house. It is normal for my wife and I to be here. Besides, today is the day when Yao'er returns home. I'm sure everyone knows about this, right? But it is really surprising that Fourth brother is here. After all, this person is just Fourth brother's concubine, and there is no formal father-in-law in the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery. This is the first time I heard of someone accompanying a concubine back to her parents' home. It seems that Aunt Lin is quite favored by Fourth brother. Also, we have already received Fourth brother's blessings on the wedding day, so Fourth brother doesn't need to bother congratulating her again."
Xiao Jingxuan's words made Xiao Jingyi choke. He immediately thought of the failure of the plan that day. He couldn't help but clench his fists, thinking about how to fight back.
However, Xiao Jingxuan's words not only attacked Xiao Jingyi, but also hurt Lin Qingrou.
Every word Xiao Jingxuan said just now really hurt Lin Qingrou. What she hated most was that others kept poking at her spine and saying that she was a concubine.
And Xiao Jingxuan not only said it just now, but also repeatedly emphasized that her status was lower than Lin Qingyao's. This was undoubtedly a stab in her heart. Lin Qingrou could clearly feel that her heart was bleeding at this moment.
Before Xiao Jingyi could speak, Lin Qingrou spoke first, "Your Highness Prince Chen, why are you so harsh? The prince did nothing wrong, please don't say that to him. I may have been thinking too much recently because of my pregnancy, and I miss my family very much, so I begged the prince to allow me to come back to see them. I also thought that my second sister would come back today. We sisters used to be the best. I haven't seen my sister for so long, and I don't know how she is doing. I miss her very much. The prince loves me and is worried about my health, so he came here with me. What's wrong with him? It's all my fault. I was spoiled and arrogant."
After hearing what Lin Qingrou said, Lin Qingyao sneered. After not seeing her for a few days, Lin Qingrou's acting skills have improved again.
It seems that Lin Qingrou has been acting this role more and more frequently in front of Xiao Jingyi, and her ability to put on airs has improved. It seems that she has used this trick a lot in Prince Kang's Mansion.
Lin Qingyao thought so too, and realized that only Xiao Jingyi would fall for her tricks.
Lin Qingrou is the best at observing people's words and expressions and changing her attitude according to the situation. This trick obviously works on Xiao Jingyi. Shouldn't she quickly use all her tricks to win his heart?
Xiao Jingyi felt distressed when he heard Lin Qingrou's words, and hurriedly comforted her: "Rou'er, you don't have to blame yourself. This is all my own will. What does it have to do with you? You can't be so sad now, the child will be sad with you."
