The Lady’s Sickly Husband (Web Novel) - Chapter 220: The Power of Love
Chapter 220: The Power of Love
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
Chuiyi had a clear mind, yet it only worked when it came to Mo Qianxue’s safety and daily comfort. She had heard nanny mention the flower-appreciating party, but hadn’t really attended one.
In her eyes, lady was not only getting better-looking, but also had more of what it took to become a noble lady. In addition, she was also very wise.
Cautious, Chuyi never tried to show off anything, and she bowed, replying, “I don’t know. Please do educate me about it, lady.”
Her answer was direct. When she didn’t know, she just admitted it.
Mo Qianxue smiled, which put the two girls in confusion. In fact, Mo Qianxue wasn’t laughing at them. Instead, she thought of the reality shows that she had watched on TV in modern time, like If You Are the One and the sorts!
After flicking through the invitation that Lan Ruomeng sent her, she had laughed mutely…
This was obviously an ancient-time blind date party!
Appreciating and enjoying flowers was a thing women would do, but they also invited the young lords to write poems and draw pictures. The intention was self-evident!
In modern time, there had been a trend of blind date. Mo Qianxue had thought that even in this ancient age, although there weren’t strict boundaries between men and women, she hadn’t expect to take part in something like a blind date party.
“It doesn’t matter. Just be careful all the time. Observe more, and talk less. Set your brain to think over everything. Even though it won’t be a tiger den, it can’t be a peaceful one.” Saying that, Mo Qianxue motioned and shut her eyes to take a rest.
The flower-appreciating party today was also another start of her socializing in the ancient time.
She naturally wouldn’t tell the two servant girls that on the way to the party which held only once a year, Ghost was following behind their carriage.
It was enough that she knew it and better not to say it out loud.
With a ten-thousand-year-old vinegar tank placed over there, she wouldn’t want to knock it over and got herself too much sour vinegar to taste!
Nevertheless, even if she was well aware of the purpose of the party, Mo Qianxue still wanted to attend as if she knew nothing, for no other reason but to befriend with the noble ladies so that she could learn news from their chatting or pretend to accidentally reveal something… This was her main task!
And it was also not bad to take a tour in the celebrated garden of Tianqi and at the same time to treat her eyes with pretty faces of the ancient young lords.
If Ning Shaoqing chanced to know what was in Mo Qianxue’s mind, he would definitely have a ghostly scary look on his darkened face.
He was the great master of a super family, but his fiancé went to a stupid garden to see other pretty men? Would that be a flattering thing for him?
In her daydreaming, Mo Qianxue obviously thought of that too, and at the sight of Ning Shaoqing’s impossibly gorgeous face turning dark, she couldn’t help feeling amused!
The two girls Chuyi and Shiwu exchanged a look and both saw helplessness in each other’s eyes.
Their lady’s temperament had changed completely! In the past when they were still in the Feng family, lady either didn’t go out or went out in a pose like walking in a solemn military parade.
She would sit there gracefully with a straight back and never say a word. Even if there was something she had to order them to do, she talked in cautious whispers.
There had never been once when she laughed wildly like this.
The previous lady was graceful and dignified, but she had strained the string of her mind too tightly so that the slightest noise would startle her! She had appeared to be gentle, but in fact too fragile!
But now, having almost died once, lady had a bigger heart. She believed in mutual respect and tit-for-tat! If someone dared to offend her for no reason, she would at least skin the person!
Therefore, relatively speaking, they liked the current lady more.
Seeing Mo Qianxue’s easy and complacent smile like a cat managing to steal fish, Chuyi and Chuyi exchanged a look and smiled too. The carriage marched on unsteadily and finally arrived at the garden entrance.
Mo Qianxue’s carriage just parked, and a carriage coming from the opposite direction also stopped.
In Tianqi, there was a clear-cut hierarchical system, and a lady’s rank could be figured by her carriage or chair.
Mo Qianxue’s carriage was moderate among the top ones, neither too luxurious to outshine the other ladies nor too humble to be laughed at.
Yet, this carriage next to hers was completely different.
If hers was a low-key luxury, then that one was a high-profile showing off.
The gilt light red carriage displayed not only the rank but also the honor of the imperial family.
The curtain was lifted, and Mo Qianxue smiled when the carriage came into her sight!
She was just considering to find some company and the person was right here, just like when you were going to sleep and someone timely tucked a pillow to under your head.
Chuyi and Shiwu jumped off the carriage, reaching out their arms, and Mo Qianxue rested her hands on them to get off the carriage and then paced slowly to the gilt carriage.
“Susu?”
Right. That carriage obviously belonged to Junzhu Susu. After all, the imperial family had to own something symbolic to show their supremacy.
Susu was sitting in the compartment and sorting out her dress. Hearing the voice from outside, she hurriedly lifted the curtain and saw Mo Qianxue standing there in a moonlight dress and apricot coat and smiling at her.
“I thought…”
“I thought…”
They started at the same time, and when the voices collided, they both showed a look of surprise and then burst into laughter!
Undoubtedly, when staying with Susu, Mo Qianxue was all relaxed, needless to pull her nerves tight and pay attention to whether there were watchful eyes or possible traps around.
When she was with Susu, she didn’t need to think about the schemes at all!
Susu was easygoing and straightforward. But for her ancient education and the habits that must have been developed over years, Mo Qianxue would believe that Susu was also a time traveler!
Susu had the heartiness and straightforwardness of a modern woman in her way of receiving people, which, however, would be called unruly and ill-bred in ancient times.
Luckily, Susu was born in a good family. Even if the outsiders didn’t like her behaviors, her father was a prince and she had three brothers to protect her. An ordinary person wouldn’t have the guts or power to offend Junzhu Susu!
Susu looked at Mo Qianxue standing out there and gave her a smile of connivance.
It was enough to have one confidant in her life!
Susu quickly groomed her dress and wasted no time in jumping off the carriage. Her maid behind didn’t show the slightest surprise. Mo Qianxue knew that this maid must have cultivated her calmness through years of torturing shock.
She stepped forward and took Susu’s hand, smiling, “I thought you wouldn’t come today and felt really bored, when I spotted your carriage coming over.”
“Me too, but I heard…” Speaking of this, Junzhu Susu, the direct girl, obviously flushed with shyness. She lowered her reddish face and bashfully looked at the tips of her feet, saying no more.
Seeing her behaving like this, Mo Qianxue certainly understood what she meant.
This flower-appreciating party was actually a blind date party. With beautiful ladies, the party must have also invited many handsome young lords to accompany them.
People like Feng Yuchen and Su Qi would surely also attend the party!
Of course, what she didn’t know was that in fact the Lan family had also sent an invitation to the Ning family, but shame that Master Ning seemed too busy to come.
One was her male bestie and the other her female bestie. This combination… Mo Qianxue suddenly became a little gossipy.
Then, Mo Qianxue chaffed, “But…you heard that Lord Su Qi would come, so you decided to come, right?”
Yesterday, Susu had acted that obviously and her eyes looking at Su Qi so passionate. Even if Susu hadn’t told her yet, she could easily figure that.
Just now, when the carriage just stopped, Susu must be grooming her dress in the compartment so that she didn’t come out immediately!
Nothing was more important than meeting the man you admired! It was understandable, because a girl’s feeling in her first maidhood was always poetic! Mo Qianxue chaffed and gave her a knowing smile.
“Qianxue!” Susu stamped her feet bashfully and glared at Mo Qianxue.
It was okay to have a small joke because of her shyness! But she had to watch the scale, because it wouldn’t be nice if Susu, thin-skinned, was too shy to go inside!
Therefore, Mo Qianxue hurriedly and generously appeased her, “Yes, yes, yes! I won’t say more! Let’s go in.”
Susu still flushed, and the color, going well with the pink dress she was wearing, made her face cuter than a flower.
Her usual carefree manner was also constrained to become much more elegant.
Mo Qianxue thought to herself, how great the power of love was!
