The stepsister of a peasant family in a book is spoiled by the big brothers

Chapter 401 Interlude

Cui Lingyao smiled faintly: "I remember you, you are the sister of the Chief Censor Tang."

Qin Huiyin smiled: "Sister Cui has a good memory. She is indeed the most talented woman in the capital. I was just joking just now. Since you like this riding suit, then you can buy it!"

After that, she said to Zhilan and Sujin, "Let's go."

Cui Lingyao watched Qin Huiyin leave.

"Miss, the sister of a mere Censor-in-Chief actually dares to snatch things from you. You're really overestimating yourself," Zhenzhu said. "I heard that Lord Tang comes from a farming family, so his sisters must be peasant girls. No wonder she's so unruly and doesn't know how to read people's expressions. She must be from a humble family and hasn't seen the world."

"It's just a set of riding clothes. Is it worth it for you to stand up for me? Our Cui family is short of this riding clothes. Why are you so aggressive and embarrassing me?" Cui Lingyao looked at the maid coldly.

Pearl was stunned and quickly knelt down.

The boss tried to smooth things over, saying with a smile, "This riding suit is made using a lost embroidery technique, and the silk thread used is ice silk. It's very expensive. If the young lady just now knew the price, she probably wouldn't dare to argue with Miss Cui. Only Miss Cui can wear such a riding suit so elegantly."

"how much is it?"

"Three thousand taels."

"So expensive?" another maidservant clicked her tongue.

Cui Lingyao frowned, hesitated for a moment, and said, "The riding suit is very nice, but I can't wear ice silk. I always get a rash when I wear it. Boss, do you have any other styles?"

"Yes, this way please, miss."

The boss did not expose the little tricks of these noble ladies. He took her to the riding wear area between 500 and 1,000 taels and introduced her to more suitable styles.

Cui Lingyao got on the carriage and glanced at the riding clothes beside her, without any joy on her face.

"Miss, if you like it, why not tell the master... His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will also be attending the gathering at the horse farm. The master has always valued His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's impression of you, so perhaps he would be willing to pay this money." Pearl asked tentatively.

"I've already said I can't wear ice silk. Do you want me to break my promise and gain weight?" Cui Lingyao said calmly, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince values ​​me, and it's never because of external things."

Qin Huiyin looked around but didn't find a style she liked, so she picked out a standard one.

When she saw Cui Lingyao buying riding gear, she knew that some unexpected people would show up at this event. So, she decided not to be too ostentatious; being ordinary might not be a bad thing.

"Miss, you didn't argue with Miss Cui just now. Was it because you took her status into consideration, or because you took into consideration that she would soon become the Crown Princess?" Zhilan asked.

"Offending people for a riding suit is not a good deal for a businessman. I just couldn't stand her gossip and made her feel a little upset. My goal has been achieved, and she can buy it if she wants. It's not like I dare not go out without that suit." Qin Huiyin said lightly, "As for whether she becomes the Crown Princess, what does it have to do with me? Even if she becomes the Crown Princess, she can't cause trouble for the official's wife for no reason. The Crown Prince is still recruiting powerful officials. If she is really smart, she should help make friends with him instead of making enemies."

Tang Yichen went out for social events again today and came back very late.

When Qin Huiyin heard that he was back, she asked Zhilan and Sujin to go to the kitchen to bring the sobering soup and dessert she had asked him to.

After Tang Yichen returned, he went into the study. He obviously hadn't drunk too much today. Even so, when he saw the hangover soup Qin Huiyin brought him, he drank it all up.

"Try this dessert. I made it myself. It's definitely better than candied fruit." Qin Huiyin handed over the dessert.

"As expected, crying children get candy." Tang Yichen said, "Yesterday I said I liked the candied fruit you made, and today I have a dessert you made yourself. Is this how Song coaxes you?"

Qin Huiyin: "..."

He didn't need to be coaxed, she always couldn't help but love him more.

Tang Yichen has a father, siblings, and so many blood relatives. Song Ruize is different, he is always alone.

However, things are much better now. He has several brothers who are loyal to him, and at least he has escaped the fate in the original book.

"Is it delicious?" Qin Huiyin changed the subject.

Tang Yichen didn't really want to bring up old issues with her, but he just couldn't help but feel jealous.

"Of course it's delicious. When have you ever made something that didn't taste good?" Tang Yichen ate the double-skin milk and felt that all his restlessness today had dissipated. "There's a box over there, open it and take a look."

Qin Huiyin walked in the direction Tang Yichen pointed, opened the box, and saw the extremely beautiful riding suit.

This riding suit is indeed different from other styles and is definitely unique.

"I have your spies around me, and they even know where I've been and what I want to buy." Qin Huiyin teased him deliberately. "But, didn't the young lady from the Prime Minister's Mansion want to buy it? How did it fall into your hands?"

"This riding suit is made of ice silk. The Prime Minister's daughter said it would be uncomfortable to wear, so she didn't buy it." Tang Yichen said, "I didn't send anyone to keep an eye on you, you unscrupulous little thing. It's just that the boss happened to have received a favor from me, and when he heard you were my sister, he sent someone to deliver the clothes. I asked someone to give you the silver, so you don't have to worry about me taking bribes."

"Then I'll take it." Qin Huiyin said, "Wear the outfit I bought you when you go to the horse farm tomorrow. Keep a low profile. We can wear this outfit when we go out to play."

"it is good."

"Are you still busy with official business? Otherwise, I..."

"If you're bored, there are storybooks over there. Many of them are newly released and you probably haven't read them yet."

Qin Huiyin's eyes were full of light: "How do you know I like to watch this? Okay, I won't bother you anymore, you do your thing, and I'll do mine."

Tang Yichen saw Qin Huiyin walk to the storybook area and saw how excited she was. She finally looked like a little girl.

Qin Huiyin looked around and found that the stories were quite normal and did not contain any plots that were inappropriate for children.

Chen Yu said to Zhang Zhen beside him, "The master had two hours free in the afternoon, so he went to the bookstore and picked out so many storybooks. It turned out to be for the second young lady."

"Every book was carefully selected by the young master, so there's absolutely no chance of them leading the young lady astray." Zhang Zhen said, "But I saw the young master blushing as he read. It must have been a difficult journey for him! He's such a serious man, yet he went through all the books himself first just to check for his sister."

He brought back the normal plots. He had seen a lot of abnormal ones and just drank a lot of cooling tea.

Tang Yichen waved to the two followers, signaling them to retreat.

During this rare and warm time, he didn't want two pillars standing there to ruin the atmosphere of their private time together.
