After rebirth, she became the favorite of the powerful minister.

Chapter 38: An Old Friend of Zhixuan Mountain

Yuan Ge bought peach saplings and a few pots of flowers and plants. He asked the servant to pack them up and send them to the residence of Marquis Kejing before he turned to Jinxiu Pavilion, where he met an acquaintance.

It turned out to be Miss Li, Li Jinfeng, with whom I had met once but had an unpleasant encounter.

Miss Li had her back to the outside and was explaining to the waiter earnestly, "I am really Miss Li from the Kejing Marquis's Mansion. I am currently living in the Kejing Marquis's Mansion and I am a very close friend of the Third Young Master's wife! Trust me, I will help you take these clothes back."

The waiter would rather go to the Kejing Marquis's residence at night than just hand the clothes over to Li Jinfeng. After all, words are not enough. Does she really have a good relationship with Li Jinfeng? What if she throws the clothes into the stinking ditch after taking them out of the door? Or cuts them into pieces with scissors? These clothes were made by Xing Xiu Niang day and night. If there is any problem, even if he sells them, it will not be enough to compensate.

The waiter was naturally unwilling to give it.

Li Jinfeng didn't know why she was trying so hard to take the clothes away, but she didn't realize that her attitude made people more suspicious, so much so that no one believed her when she said she came here because Wen Qian asked her to do so. There were so many cases of wealthy families saying one thing and doing another but being really not in harmony in their inner and backyards, so who knew what the truth was.

When they came over, the two sides were deadlocked over this. Yuan Ge was amused when she heard it, and sneered. These days, the words "boudoir friends" are really light, and anyone can easily identify with them. She climbed the stairs with a faint smile, "If I remember correctly, your last name is Li, but the family of Kejing Bofu is surnamed Song. You are obviously a lady of the Li family, so how can you become Miss Li of Kejing Bofu?"

Shi Yin imitated her, "If I remember correctly, there is only one person in our family whose maiden name is Li, and that is the eldest young master's wife, Mrs. Li."

The other party looked back, and after obvious surprise and panic, there was an almost awkward enthusiasm, "Aunt, you are here too? I just passed by Jinxiu Pavilion and wanted to come in for a look. I happened to hear the waiter say that the new clothes made by my aunt were ready, so I thought of bringing them back to you directly...but the waiter here is really pedantic and stubborn and doesn't know how to adapt."

Why do they say “the first time is unfamiliar, the second time is familiar”? This is only the second time, but she calls me “little aunt” much more skillfully than last time.

Yuan Ge is not a good-tempered person. Everyone in Zhixuan Mountain knows this. But she came to Shengjing City and everyone treated her like a fool and a soft persimmon. Hearing this, she did not give him face and coldly exposed his double-dealing ability, "In fact, I came here early in the morning. I just happened to hear you say that you asked me to come and get it. Miss Li, although my Luofengxuan is a little off, I still have all the maids and servants. I really dare not trouble you, a distinguished guest staying in my house, to do this errand job. As for...you said that the waiter is pedantic and stubborn, but I think he is good. I have a problem. I don't like others to touch my things. I should have told you about this."

I did say that, but last time I wasn’t talking about clothes, I was talking about... people.

It was said that the orders from Jinxiu Pavilion had been scheduled for several months later, but after Wen Qian entered the Bo's Mansion, she became the object of Jinxiu Pavilion's flattery. Not only did the best embroiderer from Jinxiu Pavilion come to her house in person, but the work was completed in just a few days... She just touched it and felt like she was touching a soft cloud.

My aunt was also a daughter-in-law of the Bo family, but she had never been treated like this. Is this the difference between a legitimate and a illegitimate child? Because she was the wife of the legitimate son, she could go to her eldest sister-in-law's courtyard to show off when she was unhappy without anyone blaming her? For this reason, my aunt's courtyard had been in turmoil for several days, and they were still angry with each other until now. The servants in the courtyard didn't even dare to breathe, for fear of being punished.

Li Jinfeng didn't understand, but after that day, she began to have the delusion of taking a risk.

She secretly learned some of Li's behavior. Even though she was nervous, she still smiled warmly. She smiled as if she didn't hear the other party's implied meaning. "What are you talking about, little aunt? Although I am not a lady of the Earl's family, I am living under the same roof as you. I happened to meet you and brought some clothes back to you. Why do you still use the word "excuse me"? " After saying this, she pursed her lips lightly and her fingertips rubbed each other unconsciously.

Yuan Ge slightly turned sideways, avoiding the hands that the other party wanted to cling to him, frowned and sneered, "Miss Li, please be careful with your words. I have already made it very clear last time in Luofeng Pavilion. My brother Wen is still unmarried, so how could he have such a big niece? I am too young to be called little aunt. Miss Li, it is better for you to call me the Third Young Master's Madam."

After saying this, he glanced at the other person's tearful expression, then he curled the corners of his mouth and smiled playfully, "Miss Li seems to have changed... a lot since I last saw her." It was like a soulless puppet doll suddenly had thoughts and desires of its own.

However, compared with Li's ability to please everyone, she is still immature, and her emotions are clearly shown on her face.

Yuan Ge lowered his eyebrows and chuckled. He was about to take his clothes and leave, but he heard an uncertain voice behind him, "Yuan Ge?"

Yuan Ge shuddered all over suddenly, and then someone approached him. The smell of alcohol wafted into his nose, and his wrist was grabbed. He was turned around and bumped into a pair of pupils behind him... Yuan Ge froze again, and the name on his lips almost came out.

In front of him was a face that was androgynous and yet extremely familiar. However, the delicate features in his memory now looked tired and sloppy. The white clothes were stained with dust and alcohol, and he looked exhausted and lost. Only a pair of familiar eyes were still full of light, but that light quickly extinguished. He let go of Yuan Ge's hand, stumbled back two steps, and explained with a wry smile, "It turned out to be Miss Wen. Sorry, I recognized the wrong person."

Yuan Ge's hand at his side trembled suddenly, and the warmth of the man's palm seemed to still remain on his wrist, burning hot.

Hidden in the south.

Zhixuan Mountain often had children from aristocratic families going to the mountain to study, but they all lived and ate in the front mountain. Yuan Ge lived in the back mountain, and because she was not interested in her studies, she rarely set foot in the front mountain, so she had no chance to meet these people - except to poison them. And Nan Yin was one of the few people she knew who was very familiar and congenial.

I didn’t expect he was from Shengjing City, and I didn’t expect he knew Wen Qian.

But there was no such person in Wen Qian's memory at all.

She steadied her chest, which was rising and falling suddenly, and asked softly, "Does this gentleman know me?"

He nodded and introduced himself, "I'm Xu Chengjin, a childhood friend of Song Wenyuan. I saw you on the day of Miss Wen's wedding... Sorry, the wine was a little too strong today, and I mistook you for Miss Wen just now."
