Chapter 194 Serving Tea to the Prince and Others
Concubine Liang watched the beautiful couple leave with a look of relief in her eyes. Cai Yin, who was standing by, saw this and whispered, "Master...!"
Concubine Liang smiled at Caiyin and said with a look of satisfaction: "Yan'er is a good girl!"
Cai Yin smiled and said, "The Eighth Lady is naturally excellent. How could the person chosen by the Eighth Master be bad? Master, good days are still to come. Maybe after a while, there will be some good news."
Concubine Liang instantly threw away the sadness in her heart, smiled happily and said, "Yes, yes, you are right. I have to prepare the things first, otherwise, I will be in a mess when the time comes!"
As soon as Concubine Liang finished speaking, she stood up immediately, and Caiyun, who was standing beside her, immediately came forward and helped Concubine Liang! Concubine Liang took people to pack up, and Caiyin went to the small kitchen in person and told the imperial chef to perform well today and not make any mistakes!
Lao Ba and Yun Yan walked hand in hand on the palace road. Lao Ba lowered his head and looked at the bracelet on Yun Yan's wrist, which was faintly visible. He was in a very good mood!
The crown prince and the eldest brother were still arguing with each other when they heard the eunuch outside the house shouting loudly: "Prince Lian and the Eighth Lady are here!"
As soon as Lao Ba and Yun Yan walked in, they felt the strange atmosphere in the room. Lao Ba looked at Lao Jiu, and when they looked over, Lao Jiu just shrugged.
The eighth brother bowed and saluted the prince and the eldest brother. Soon, a palace maid came up with tea. Yunyan took the lead to serve tea to the prince!
Yunyan raised the corners of her mouth slightly, with a faint cold smile on her face, and half-knelt to salute, and said in a cold tone: "Your Highness, please have some tea!"
The prince looked at Yunyan in front of him with a dazed look on his face. When he saw Yunyan yesterday, he felt that he looked familiar. He always felt that he had seen him somewhere before. Now that he saw Yunyan at such a close distance, the familiar feeling became more and more obvious!
The prince did not take the tea immediately, and everyone frowned, especially the Eighth Brother, whose face turned dark. If the Fourth Brother had not spoken in time, the Eighth Brother would have turned hostile on the spot!
The fourth brother shouted anxiously: "Second brother...!"
The fourth brother's call of "Second Brother" instantly drew the prince's attention back. The prince immediately felt embarrassed. Looking at the inquiring looks in his brothers' eyes, he did not care about anything else and hurriedly took the teacup and drank it. He also put the red envelope that had been prepared long ago on the tray of the servant!
Things went much more smoothly afterwards. Yunyan, without any hesitation, brought another cup of tea to the eldest brother, then to the third, fourth, fifth, and others. When it was the ninth brother's turn, Yunyan only had to serve them the tea without any greetings!
After the ceremony, the Eighth Brother took Yunyan to the side hall with an unhappy look on his face, without caring about the Crown Prince's face at all. He clearly told everyone that he was unhappy!
Yunyan looked at Lao Ba's sour face, took Lao Ba's hand, shook it gently, and said in a coquettish tone: "Don't be angry, I don't care!"
Listening to Yunyan's coquettishness and looking at the smile on her face, Lao Ba felt that Yunyan was charming and lovely! Lao Ba looked around vigilantly, but when he saw that there were no outsiders, he leaned close to Yunyan's ear and said, "I like this kind of Yan'er!"
Yunyan glanced at Lao Ba coquettishly, with a look that showed she wanted to say something but didn't. Lao Ba felt his mouth dry and he could hardly control the desire in his heart!
Yunyan saw the flash of desire in Lao Ba's eyes accurately, and turned around and walked forward speechlessly, thinking that this man was shameless, that was really shameless! He didn't even look at where he was? His mind was full of nonsense!
Lao Ba touched his nose awkwardly, and hurriedly chased forward, coaxing her softly! If he didn't coax her, Lao Ba was afraid that he would have to sleep in the study tonight. He finally married her home, and if he was still alone in the study, what would that be?
The Crown Princess and the First Lady were all talking about Yunyan, whom they met last night, especially the Third Lady. Everyone could hear the sourness in their tone!
But soon, they stopped talking because a maid came to report that Lao Ba and Yun Yan had arrived!
When the Crown Princess and the others saw Lao Ba walking in with Yun Yan in his hand with a doting look on his face, even the light from the door shone on Lao Ba and Yun Yan, making them look even more radiant.
This made the Crown Princess and the others feel mixed emotions, all kinds of thoughts, envy, jealousy, and even resentment! Even the usually kind Fourth Lady felt envious!
The Third Lady was so angry that she almost vomited blood. She dressed up carefully today, but she didn't expect that she still lost to others. If Yunyan had also dressed up carefully, she would not be so angry that she wanted to vomit blood!
The Third Lady really didn't expect that the other person looked better than her even without makeup. She couldn't help but feel resentful in her heart!
The Third Lady said in a sour tone: "Eighth Brother and Eighth Brother's Wife, you will keep us waiting!"
As soon as the Third Lady said this, he felt a little regretful, but the words were already out and she couldn't take them back, so she could only pretend to be calm!
The Crown Princess and the Fourth Lady looked at the Third Lady with disapproval, while the First Lady showed a gloating look, while the Fifth Lady and the Seventh Lady looked as if they had nothing to do with it and were indifferent! The Ninth Lady and the Tenth Lady rolled their eyes, looking speechless, without giving the Third Lady any face!
The Fourth Lady remembered her master's instructions and quickly spoke up to smooth things over: "Third sister-in-law, is there something urgent at home? It's so urgent, isn't it time yet?"
The Third Concubine didn't expect that it was the Fourth Concubine who spoke. She thought it would be the Ninth Concubine and the Tenth Concubine!
The Eighth Old Man was not as gentle as the Fourth Fu Jian. He showed a sneer and said, "Haha... Third Sister-in-law, are you in a hurry to go back home to take care of the princess in your house?"
As soon as the Eighth Old Man said this, it instantly hit the Third Lady's vital point, causing the Ninth Lady and the Tenth Lady to secretly laugh. They had long disliked the Third Lady, but because of their seniority, they had always been suppressed! This time, they finally saw the Third Lady suffer a loss, it would be strange if they were not happy!
No matter it was because of Third Lady's indirect criticism or because of Eighth Master's sarcasm, Yunyan's expression did not change at all. She still had that faint smile on her face, and it had no effect on her at all!
