Chapter 814: Come with joy and leave with satisfaction
Piano room.
Wei Ying, very rarely, did not kneel on the piano platform. Instead, her eyes were filled with distraction and she kept measuring the floor with her long legs.
Instead, Xia Jingui sat in front of the zither table with great interest, fiddling with the seven-string guqin that had just been replaced.
"The original You Feng Lai Yi was already a top-grade piece in terms of tone quality. I never thought that there was such a good thing hidden in my sister's house."
As he spoke, a few fingers as white as scallions began to pluck the strings slowly and then quickly. The delicate and moving sound of the piano gradually became higher and higher until it filled the entire piano room.
Although Wei Ying was in a state of irritation, she could not help but stop and shook her head when she heard Xia Jingui's comments on the guqin. "Among the many collections in my house, this guqin is the best in terms of the exquisiteness of the tone, but in terms of the breadth of the range of sound, the Zhang You Feng Lai Yi is the one that suits my taste the most."
Although Xia Jingui was somewhat proficient in playing the zither, she could not bear to kneel in front of the zither for too long, so she tilted her body, which had become increasingly plump, and stretched her legs under her skirt like a compass, and then gently beat them again and again.
At the same time, her eyes darted around, and she suddenly remembered something, and immediately burst out laughing: "Sister really likes to be bold and unrestrained, and despises such affectation."
"That is from..."
Wei Ying nodded subconsciously, and then when he saw her teasing expression, he suddenly realized what was going on and said angrily, "What nonsense are you talking about! When did the prince become pretentious?!"
"Sister, please don't blame me. When did I mention the prince? Aren't you talking about the sound of the piano?"
Xia Jingui cried out in humiliation, and seeing that Wei Ying was still gloomy, she climbed up from the piano podium, came over to hold Wei Ying's arm, and acted like a spoiled child.
I just spoke carelessly and blurted out what was in my heart.
Wei Ying felt embarrassed and also regretted asking Xia Jingui to accompany her - but apart from Xia Jingui, how could she dare to show her anxiety in front of others?
Especially since Sun Shaozong would be visiting soon, how could she feel at ease meeting him in private without Xia Jingui's assistance?
Therefore, although Wei Ying was very dissatisfied with her deliberate "provocation" just now, she could only control her temper and not lose her temper on the spot.
Who knew that Xia Jingui said a few nonsense words, and suddenly she twitched her nose like a cat, and moved closer to Wei Ying, almost burying her face in her breasts.
"do what!"
Wei Ying pushed her away in embarrassment and was about to scold her, but Xia Jingui seemed to have discovered a new world and asked with a burning gaze, "Sister, you actually took a bath this morning?"
"Don't talk nonsense!"
Wei Ying's cheeks flushed red, and she stomped her tight long legs on the ground: "I was with the prince yesterday, so of course I had to wash up in the morning!"
After explaining, she felt that something was wrong. Wouldn't it make her look guilty if she was so anxious to clarify?
"I see."
Sure enough, Xia Jingui nodded perfunctorily, but her face was full of disbelief.
Seeing this, Wei Ying became even more furious. She took a half step forward and asked condescendingly, "Xia Jingui, what do you mean? I didn't call you here just for you to mock me in a sarcastic way!"
When she got tough, Xia Jingui immediately pretended to be weak, put her hands on her chest, hunched her shoulders, pursed her red lips, and said aggrievedly: "Sister, you have wronged me. We are in the same boat now. What good will it do me to mock your sister?"
Wei Ying stared at her intently for a long time, but in the end, he still didn't get angry with her. He just sneered and said, "Humph, who knows what you are thinking!"
She was at a loss at the moment, and Xia Jingui, who had the same experience and knew the inside story, was her only straw. Even if she couldn't use it to save her life, there was no reason to throw her away casually.
Seeing that Wei Ying's momentum was a little discouraged, Xia Jingui immediately restrained her emotions and put on a serious face: "Sister, in fact, those words I just said were just to let you get used to it first - when the man surnamed Sun meets you alone, he may not be as reserved as I am."
She did say this. That evil thief surnamed Sun loved to say shameful and crazy things. He even forced her to...
Recalling those unspeakable scenes, Wei Ying's face turned blue and red. Her two strong and agile long legs seemed to be bitten and gnawed by something, and she felt pain from the soles of her feet to her heart.
"elder sister."
At this time, Xia Jingui came up to her at the right time, held her hand and whispered: "At this critical moment, you must not be confused. Not to mention verbal teasing, even if he touches you, you must be more tolerant. As long as you can get through this..."
"He dares!"
Wei Ying pushed her away again, turned around, and walked a few steps to the south wall. She took down the sword hanging on it, drew it out of its sheath with a clang, and said coldly, "If that evil villain dares to mess around in the palace, I will fight him to the death!"
Xia Jingui was frightened at first, then stamped her feet anxiously and said, "What are you talking about? I've already given up on such a great bargain, and now..."
While he was talking, he suddenly heard hurried footsteps outside.
Xia Jingui quickly shut her mouth and turned to look outside the door, only to see two figures, one black and one white, striding in.
The man in moon-white satin and a silver-grey cloak was none other than the handsome Prince of Beijing, Shui Rong.
And the one wearing the black robe must be Wei Ruolan.
When the two men entered the room, they saw Wei Ying holding a sword with a stern look on his face, and they were all stunned.
"My dear, what are you doing?"
Shui Rong looked at his wife, then at Xia Jingui who was smiling awkwardly beside him, and became more and more puzzled - Xia Jingui had been moving around quite frequently recently, and the two sisters had been together almost all day long, like they were in love. Why did she suddenly resort to murder?
How could Wei Ying have expected that Shui Rong and the other two would suddenly barge in?
I was stunned for a moment, totally unsure of how to react .
Fortunately, Xia Jingui had some quick wit. She covered her cherry lips and laughed so hard that her body shook.
This smile naturally attracted Shui Rong's attention. He first paid attention to the trembling, and while sighing that the girl from the Xia family had really grown up, he couldn't help but ask curiously, "Why is my cousin laughing?"
Xia Jingui noticed his brief lingering gaze and returned it with a seductive look. Then she smiled again and said, "Just now, the two sisters were talking about the methods of taming husbands, and we never thought that the prince would come... Hehehe."
Having said that, she couldn't help but giggle again.
How to tame your husband?
Shui Rong looked at the sword in the princess's hand, then at her stiff and awkward expression. He suddenly realized what was going on and couldn't help but burst into laughter.
While smiling, he stepped forward and held Wei Ying's slender waist, saying tenderly: "Princess, if you want to subdue me, why do you need this three-foot-high peak? Just a few words and I will obey."
Seeing his affectionate attitude, Wei Ying felt more and more ashamed, but also relieved. So she put the sword back into the sheath and was ready to add a few more words according to Xia Jingui's words.
Unexpectedly, Shui Rong's face suddenly became serious, and he said solemnly: "I wanted to invite my elder brother to come today to resolve the feud between the Wei and Sun families, but my elder brother just..."
Shaking his head helplessly, he let go of Wei Ying's slender waist and cupped his hands again, saying, "After all, Brother Lang is now a commoner and cannot represent the Wei family. You can only count on my beloved concubine later. You must be more humble in your words, so that Sun Shaozong can forget his grudge and come here with joy and leave with satisfaction."
He was afraid that his wife, who had always been arrogant, would not be able to let go of her pride and would make a fuss even more after a proper apology. However, he never expected that his words were quite similar to what Xia Jingui had just said.
Wei Ying was immediately in a state of confusion, and the anger that she had built up over the past few days also quietly dissipated for the most part.
