Legitimate Daughter: Encounter Devil Prince - C178
The clothes were made of pomegranate red pearls and peacock plumes. The color was smooth and very pleasing to the eye. Many young ladies of the government liked to use the beautiful cloud brocade to make clothes, not to mention the bright color of pomegranate red. It was even more welcomed.
But when An Lingge touched it, she felt a light prickling sensation.
She turned it over and saw that the material inside was still smooth and bright.
However, the rough feeling under her hands was not fake. What was inside the shirt was not the materials used for the brocade, but instead, it was used for inferior cloth. She purposely made it look like a brocade.
Seeing An Lingge’s actions, Bi Zhu also touched it, this touch made her eyes condense and her round face reveal ridicule.
“So it turns out that Lan Xin personally delivered the clothes because she did something to the clothes and felt guilty about it?”
The Heaven’s Clothing Workshop had been opened in the capital for many years, but nothing good had ever happened. After the clothes were delivered, they were only given to Lan Xin, and only Lan Xin could do something about it.
An Lingge shook her head. Although it looked like it was made with Heaven’s Clothing Workshop, after careful examination, she realized that these clothes were not as exquisite as those made with Heaven’s Clothing Workshop.
“Bring the clothes over, I’ll try them.”
Her black eyes were so deep that one couldn’t see the bottom of them, causing people to be unable to see what she was thinking.
Bi Zhu’s face was filled with unwillingness. There was obviously something wrong with her clothes, so why did Miss still need to wear it?
Ming Xin looked at her and indicated for her to follow An Lingge’s instructions. Then, the two of them started to change An Lingge’s clothes.
“These clothes are a bit short.”
Brightheart frowned and looked at her sleeve which was half of her wrist. Anger flashed in her eyes.
Her young miss had a quiet personality and treated her servants with gentleness and kindness. She would never curse at them or make things difficult for them. Why was it that there were always these things that helped others frame her in the courtyard?
Don’t even mention that it was just a piece of cloth. If no one was doing anything to it, how could it have ended up like this? Heaven’s Clothing Workshop had made the clothes for the Young Miss many times already, and they definitely would not make such mistakes in terms of size or stature, so these clothes definitely did not come from Heaven’s Clothing Workshop!
Even someone with such a carefree attitude like Bi Zhu had noticed the strangeness, “Miss, this is not a piece of clothes from the Heaven’s Clothing Workshop, do you want this servant to call Lan Xin here for questioning?”
An Lingge’s eyes darkened, but no emotion could be seen from her face.
She only nodded her head and agreed to Bi Zhu’s suggestion.
Only then did Bi Zhu go out and call Lan Xin in, and afterwards, she stood by An Lingge’s side with her head lowered.
An Lingge sat on the wooden chair with her legs encased in clouds. Her beautiful face was covered with some light and shadows, and the light golden light shining on her made her look even more dignified. “Speak, what happened to these clothes?”
Lan Xin immediately knelt down upon hearing this, as if she was terrified of being discovered, “Miss, please forgive me, but this servant’s mother is sick, and needs a large amount of silver, but this servant cannot take out the clothes that the Heaven’s Clothing Workshop sent over, so that I can sell them at a low price, and if I take these clothes over, I can earn some silver from them, so that I can buy medicine for my mother.”
Her expression was flustered as tears welled up in her eyes, “This servant has done something wrong. Please be magnanimous, Miss. Please forgive this servant this time!”
“You know you’ve done wrong, how dare you ask the little miss to spare you?” Bi Zhu glared, her childish face showing her anger, “Every single piece of clothing is fixed, you take the young miss’s clothes and sell them, don’t tell me you want the young miss to wear these inferior fabrics?”
Not to mention if the young miss would be laughed at if she wore inferior clothes, but if the maid sold the young miss’s clothes on her own accord and let others know, everyone would say that the young miss’ treatment was not strict, and that even the servant girl in her courtyard could not handle it.
Just as An Lingge was about to speak, a slim figure slowly walked in.
The person who came was An Lingyi. She had put on her delicate makeup today, and her oval shaped pink face, apricot-shaped eyes that were similar to Aunt Li’s had a divine light flowing around them. She had pink cheeks and red lips, and although she was petite in stature, she could still be considered charming among those of the same age.
She was wearing a moon-white, scaly, watery immortal dress with rich patterns embroidered on it. The material was a rare cloud brocade, and in front of her, there was a jade collar with pearls inlaid on it. These tiny pearls were extraordinary. The outer coat was covered by a golden pipa, and was tied with a dark orange tassel ribbon. Her innocent and childish face was mixed with the girl’s flirtatiousness, making her look like she was welcoming the spring breeze. She was extremely charming.
Her black hair was combed into a bun for the spring season, and on the hairpin was a gold-threaded eight treasures pearl hairpin. On the hairpin was a gold-threaded eight treasures pearl hairpin, and on it were countless emeralds.
“Big Sister, what’s happening here? Why is this maid still kneeling on the ground?” Without waiting for An Lingge to reply, she continued, “I heard that big sister is the most magnanimous, and never puts on airs when treating servants. So it turns out that she doesn’t even believe what she hears.”
Her words were full of praise for An Lingge, but she couldn’t believe what she heard, and she secretly stepped on An Lingge’s leg.
If An Lingge still wanted to punish Lan Xin, An Lingge was cold-blooded and emotionless.
Seeing the surprise on Lan Xin’s face, An Lingge knew that An Lingyi had specially come to help Lan Xin.
Yet the servant in his courtyard was wholeheartedly supporting An Lingyi. It was truly ironic.
“Third Sister’s personality is still so impulsive, she didn’t even know what the situation is like before she came to a conclusion. Now, I still have Aunt Li to take care of some matters for you.
“Who did you say is gone!” As if someone stepped on An Lingyi’s painful leg, her charming and beautiful face instantly twisted, forcibly destroying the carefully prepared makeup.
An Lingge looked at her in shock, her face filled with shock, “Third Sister isn’t young anymore, I’ll have to find someone to marry in a year or two. At that time, Aunt Li can’t possibly be by your side, can she?
An Lingge had clearly been cursing her Aunt to die early, how could this be what she meant!
An Lingyi’s eyes were filled with hatred, but An Lingge’s words could originally be understood in such a way, if she were to forcefully provoke him, she would not be able to stop herself.
“Big Sis has the time to worry about me, so why don’t you think about what kind of wedding present your grandma will give on her birthday?”
She shook her sleeves with a trace of arrogance on her face. “I’ve already prepared a congratulatory gift. I wonder what big sister will prepare?”
An Lingge’s gaze inadvertently drifted across Lan Xin’s body. Seeing Lan Xin clench her fists and looking nervous, she had a faint guess in her heart.
