Lady An echoed with Lord An, “Lingshan, you can move to Meixiang Pavilion at the back yard later. You two sisters should stay close and accompany each other.” Saying so, she turned to Mo Zhu and said, “Send some servant girls for Miss An Lingshan.” Mo Zhu quickly nodded.
Lowering her head, An Rushuang replied a “Yes.”
An Lingshan also bowed to Lady An and replied, “Thanks, Lady An, I’ll bear that in mind.”
“Good. A lot of things have happened today. Go back and have a good rest.”
An Rushuang and An Lingshan went away after paying respects to Lord An and Lady An.
Now it was already bright outside. Against the daylight, An Rushuang looked even more beautiful and smart.
Rushuang was like a water fairy dressed in a lotus green long skirt while her soft appearance showed a sense of determinedness. An Lingshan walked behind her in snow white, looked mild and weak. They were followed by several servants.
Being silent all the way, they were about to arrive at Liuxi Pavilion when An Lingshan said in a low voice, “Sister…”
With her lips curved, An Lingshan walked forward and wove at those servants to let them go, “I have a word with my sister. No need to wait for me. Go back first.”
These low-rank servants had just been promoted to serve An Lingshan. Naturally, they didn’t dare to disobey her. Therefore, they quickly replied a “Yes” before they went away.
An Lingshan looked up to An Rushuang. Although Rushuang was taller, she would never lower her head when talking with An Lingshan. Instead, she only rolled her eyes to look at her as if she was looking at some worms or grass.
It was as if whatever An Lingshan did, An Rushuang would always regard her like a joke.
True enough, every time she wanted to make some trouble for An Rushuang, it ended up as a joke.
Thinking so, An Lingshan was so frustrated and furious. She had planned to ask An Rushuang many questions, but when she spoke, she only said, “Why? Why do you dislike me?”
It was true that An Lingshan played some tricks and bribed some servants in the An Family, but she never intended to harm anyone in the Family. What she wanted was just standing at the same level as An Rushuang so that she no longer needed to struggle at the bottom of the society. An Rushang’s father was also her father, wasn’t he?
That was not fair, not fair at all. They were sisters who shared almost the same identity. Why she had to live such a miserable life? God, that’s not fair!
“Dislike?”
Hearing this word, An Rushuang curved her lips and looked into An Lingshan’s tearful eyes. After a while, An Rushuang said, “No, I never dislike you.”
Rather, I hate you.
“No, you lied.” An Lingshan looked at her angrily and her eyes were full of tears, “You are my sister! Why are you always giving me a hard time?”
Looking at An Lingshan being weak and feeling wronged, An Rushuang couldn’t help clenching her fist so tightly that her nail went deep into her palm. But she slightly smiled at her, “What are you talking about? Are you too tired? Dad and mum have just asked us to stay close and be friendly to each other. My dear sister, what are you saying?”
Saying so, An Rushuang flicked her sleeves and went away.
When the An Family was sentenced to death in the previous life, An Rushuang actually asked her the same question.
She could still remember how An Lingshan replied, “I hate the An Family, which always reminds me of the most miserable time in my life. I never dislike you. I just hate you.”
I hate to see you being regarded as the moon; I hate myself for being treated like a piece of dirt.
An Rushuang was so tired of what happened today that she forgot to put away the Buddha beads in the evening. Despite this, she did not dream herself in the desert.
She had already been worried about the banquet tomorrow. Now An Lingshan was making trouble for her.
Nanny Liu was still sick. An Rushuang heard that Nanny Liu refused to have surgery on her neck. Nanny Liu was so stubborn on this matter that she lost her temper several times. An Rushuang had no idea about how they handled her.
Hearing the noises outside, An Rushuang could not sleep well. She looked at the moon for the whole night, feeling the moon seemed a little darker than what she had seen in the desert.
On the next day, An Rushuang felt sleepy at dawn.
She washed faces with cold water to get refreshed. Hong Yu asked her, “Miss, what would you like to wear today?”
An Rushuang was too sleepy to hear her words clearly. She looked at Hong Yu for a while and murmured, “Huh…Your dress is beautiful.”
Hearing this, Hong Yu almost felt choked.
Finally, Hong Yu presented three dresses in front of her and let her choose. However, An Rushuang randomly picked one without even looking at them.
After dressed up, An Rushuang went out and saw two coaches at the gate. Hong Zong in apricot yellow and Bai Zhi in frost white were standing beside the coaches. Seeing An Rushuang, they paid a respect. Until now, An Rushuang knew that Lu Mingyue and Zhu Xianxian had already arrived.
Mingyue drew the curtain and smiled at An Rushuang, “We were thinking that if you come later, we can skip the flower appreciating section and go straight to the banquet for meals today.” Mingyue wore a sakura smoky shirt and combed a cloud chignon as if she was a beauty coming out of the fire.
“Hum…” said An Rushuang, glancing at her, “Xianxian won’t be like you. Even if we went directly for meals, at least we won’t be hungry, will we?” Hearing this, they all laughed.
Zhu Xianxian smiled, “Why bother mentioning me? Mingyue, stop bickering with her. Let’s get inside. Don’t you see she’s sleepy? She won’t listen anyway. Hong Yu, help Miss An get on to the coach. Be careful.” Saying so, she turned to the coachman, “Let’s go!”
The coach had cushions on all sides that were wrapped with damask. But Hong Yu was still worried that An Rushuang would feel uncomfortable, so she put a soft pillow on the side and sat on the other side. She carefully led An Rushuang into the coach. An Rushuang quickly fell asleep after getting on the coach. Seeing this, Hong Yu immediately knew she did not rest well last night. Thinking of Nanny Liu, she couldn’t help sighing.
An Rushuang fell asleep so quickly that she felt a blowing coldness all of a sudden.
