When a normal person heard that Qu Yuebai had asked her to leave, she would certainly not insist to stay shamelessly.
But s.h.i.+ Baojin refused to be like that. When she heard it, she was surprised at first, then she raised her head and said with confidence, "I'm not a guest. Since His Excellency lives in the house of my family, it is reasonable that I should come to visit him as the hostess. Move away!"
She was too fierce and shameless, and Qu Yuebai seemed not able to handle her.
s.h.i.+ Baojin had made it clear that she would not leave without seeing Mo Junyang, and she tried to peek inside several times. Although Qu Yuebai stopped her, he could only strike a stopping posture. He couldn't touch s.h.i.+ Baojin's body.
Just when Qu Yuebai felt helpless and didn't know what to do, his master finally appeared out of his conscience.
"What does Third Lady mean?"
Mo Junyang's faint voice became a perfect sound in s.h.i.+ Baojin's ears. She was afraid of being misunderstood and quickly stopped her rude behaviors. She made a blessing salute to Mo Junyang, and whispered, "Brother Yang, I come to visit you. How are you feeling?"
This calling was vague and full of affections.
Tender and shy. It perfectly showed the girl's mood of missing her lover.
The people around her were all sick of her calling of Brother Yang.
But Mo Junyang didn't look at her, and his voice became more and more indifferent, "There should be distance between men and women. Third Lady, please call me by my honorable appellation!"
s.h.i.+ Baojin tried hard to act like this and wanted to take the opportunity to get close to Mo Junyang, but she didn't expect that he forced her to return to her original image in a few words.
She was unwilling, but then she thought whether it was because Mo Junyang didn't want her reputation to be damaged that he had to bear the pain to keep the distance with her.
The more s.h.i.+ Baojin thought about it, the more convinced she was. Otherwise, why did King Rui's eldest son, who was warm like the sun, showed a cold face only to her?
Definitely because he was not good at expressing and could only drive her away with coldness.
"I was being brusque just now. I won't do it any more. Your Excellency, please forgive me." s.h.i.+ Baojin looked down in shyness and said in a stagy voice.
At the end, she looked up at Mo Junyang with her eyes half-raised, and she showed a shy look, excited and scared.
Mo Junyang was even more impatient, he directly asked her to leave, "Since you have already seen me, please go back!"
s.h.i.+ Baojin had abundant of warm words to say and planned to make King Rui's eldest son hers with this visit. How could he try to drive her away in a few words?
Even though she tried to suppress her anger, her face with exquisite makeup was a little twisted.
"In this case, I won't disturb your rest. I shall leave now!" As s.h.i.+ Baojin left, she often looked back and walked as slowly as a snail, trying to make Mo Junyang aware of her reluctance and affection.
But s.h.i.+ Baojin didn't get Mo Junyang's requirement of her staying as she had wished. She could only saw him return to the bedroom without even turning back.
s.h.i.+ Baojin, "..."
This time, no matter how good at imagination s.h.i.+ Baojin was, she could not lie to herself that Mo Junyang liked her!
"Isn't Mo Junyang into a pure and innocent girl? Does he like those pretty and coquettish people?" s.h.i.+ Baojin thought to herself. The more she thought about it, the more she believed that she was right.
Men! No matter how serious they looked, they all liked women who were unrestrained.
s.h.i.+ Baojin bit the corner of her mouth resentfully, "Hum! Who can't learn to be unrestrained? Isn't it just to learn the stagy look of hookers? I will definitely be the wife of King Rui's eldest son."
She stared again at Langyue Pavilion where Mo Junyang lived at present, and left angrily.
And just at this moment, a surprise was again brought from the palace.
Mammy Chang brought the imperial decree of Empress Dowager, "First Lady of the s.h.i.+ Family, at 18 years old, is raised in a dignified family, gentle and tender. She lives in the house for a long time, but her good reputation is widely spread. She is much favored by Empress Dowager. According to the imperial decree of Empress Dowager, s.h.i.+ Baoning is named Baoning Infanta. It should be recorded in the book to announce the world."
The whole s.h.i.+ Family knelt down and thanked the grace of Empress Dowager. No matter whether it was true or not, they all congratulated s.h.i.+ Baoning.
The ladies in aristocratic families did not have cla.s.s themselves. Only after they were married did they get the corresponding cla.s.s due to their husbands' honor.
s.h.i.+ Baoning got her cla.s.s before getting married, and it was her fantastic luck.
s.h.i.+ Baoning was stunned for a while. Until she saw the loving sight of Mo Shujun, she finally realized that it was her grandmother who had asked for such a grace specially for her.
On the one hand, she was grateful in her heart. On the other hand, she felt guilty that this position of Infanta shouldn't be hers.
She turned to s.h.i.+ Qingxue, and just met with s.h.i.+ Qingxue's bright eyes, "Qingxue..."
"Sister, you are really blessed. You have just won the first place at the palace banquet for Qiqiao Festival, and now you are so beloved by Empress Dowager and are named to be Infanta. You really bring honor to our family. No wonder you are the most favored granddaughter of grandmother!" s.h.i.+ Baojin's surprising voice interrupted and stopped what s.h.i.+ Baoning wanted to say.
Even though s.h.i.+ Baoning didn't like to suspect others to have bad intentions, this awkward compliment made her couldn't help but frown, "Baojin, what nonsense are you saying?"
As she spoke, she glanced at s.h.i.+ Qingxue again.
s.h.i.+ Qingxue was very happy for her sister to get the position. She didn't understand s.h.i.+ Baoning's sight with worry and guilt in it, and thought it was s.h.i.+ Baojin's words that had made her sister uncomfortable.
Then she turned to glance at s.h.i.+ Baojin, and said coldly, "Baojin, since you are here to congratulate, you can say some blessing words. If you say good things into bad things, you might be disliked for it."
Even s.h.i.+ Qingxue tried to euphemistically express her meaning that a filthy mouth couldn't utter decent language, s.h.i.+ Baojin figured it out and her face changed.
Because the elders were watching aside, s.h.i.+ Baojin couldn't start the quarrel. She could only fake a smile and provoke s.h.i.+ Qingxue, "I am truly happy for Baoning! After all, among so many granddaughters of grandmother, only Baoning can be named to be Infanta. Isn't that of great honor? Qingxue, you say those words, is it because you are jealous..."
s.h.i.+ Baojin paused deliberately, and she constantly glanced at the two sisters, leaving people with imagination on purpose.
Some words might not be so effective if they were spoken out!
s.h.i.+ Qingxue seemed not to understand the meaning of her words, and bluntly asked, "What am I jealous? Why didn't you finish your words?"
s.h.i.+ Baojin wanted to break their relations.h.i.+p, not to pull herself into the fight, and it would be enough to pause right there.
She chuckled a little, instead of arguing with s.h.i.+ Qingxue, she said, "I was being straightforward!"
s.h.i.+ Qingxue was even more innocent than her. She blinked her eyes and said softly, "I am surely pleasant for Baoning that she has been named to be Infanta. But with Baojin's chant and sigh, it's like that you are dissatisfied with it. Otherwise, how could you think of the word like jealousy?"
Originally, s.h.i.+ Baojin wanted to imply that s.h.i.+ Qingxue was jealous of s.h.i.+ Baoning. However, with Qingxue reversing it, it seemed that she thought that others were jealous because she was envious.
s.h.i.+ Baojin couldn't argue and her face became red. But she was speechless, whatever she answered would be wrong.
In the end, Mo Shujun called s.h.i.+ Baojin away, and the storm calmed down.
s.h.i.+ Baoning faced s.h.i.+ Qingxue alone, and it was the first time that the two stayed together alone after the palace banquet.
She was a little embarra.s.sed, but still said, "Qingxue, I'm sorry about the previous thing."
"What?" s.h.i.+ Qingxue tilted her head, she didn't understand what s.h.i.+ Baoning meant.
s.h.i.+ Baoning felt more embarra.s.sed and her face became warmer. She was stiffened for a long while before she whispered, "The test at the palace banquet, the credit should belong to you, but the honor became mine at last. Not only did I not... but I still criticized you for Baojin. I..."
Her voice was low and those words were intermittent, so at last, s.h.i.+ Qingxue could barely hear what s.h.i.+ Baoning was saying.
s.h.i.+ Qingxue tried hard listening and finally understood. She opened her mouth in surprise and asked, "Baoning, what are you thinking?"
Seeing that s.h.i.+ Baoning became even more guilty on her face, s.h.i.+ Qingxue realized that her sister had completely thought it wrong. She hurriedly grabbed her trembling hands, and whispered, "Baoning, I have never been mad at you."
With s.h.i.+ Baoning's surprised look, s.h.i.+ Qingxue continued to explain seriously, "Maybe we hold different opinions on other sisters, but the fact that you are my own sister will never change. It's okay if you would like to believe them or to get close to them!
I hope you take good care of yourself no matter what. This is the thing that our parents and I would like to see most."
s.h.i.+ Baoning was shocked by the caution in Qingxue's eyes. Her weak heart seemed to be suddenly immersed in the warm spring. It was burned when she just went down, but she was drowned in the warmth later.
Maybe this was family!
"Then don't you think this is unfair? Obviously, you are the most beloved granddaughter of grandmother, and you are more capable than me. The position of Infanta should have been..."
"Baoning!" s.h.i.+ Qingxue interrupted s.h.i.+ Baoning's despising herself first. Her eyes were wide open, as if she didn't understand why she would have such a ridiculous thought.
Qingxue frowned, holding s.h.i.+ Baoning's hands more tightly, saying word by word, "I'm really happy that you can become Infanta. There is no other emotion involved. Don't think too much.
Baoning, you are the eldest granddaughter of Princess Royal and the eldest daughter of Duke s.h.i.+. Your ident.i.ty is not lower than anyone else's and your talent is not worse than any other n.o.ble lady. So there's no way that you should be self-abased!"
"Really?" s.h.i.+ Baoning's heart settled slightly, but still a little uneasy.
s.h.i.+ Qingxue nodded earnestly, and smiled, "You don't know it because you have stayed in the boudoir for a long time. Those so-called n.o.ble ladies outside are not comparable to you. When you completely recover, you will know once you go out!"
s.h.i.+ Baoning then showed a soft smile and nodded gratefully at Qingxue, "I know, and I won't be self-abased again. If there is any banquet in the future, can you go with me?"
"Ah!" s.h.i.+ Qingxue was most impatient with attending those banquets in dignified families. Usually once she could avoid it, she would not attend.
But when facing Baoning's expectation, s.h.i.+ Qingxue had to grit her teeth and promise, "Fine, I will go with you in the future. Don't worry!"
Those messy situations, you might not be willing to go after you had been there once or twice.
s.h.i.+ Qingxue had just calmed down s.h.i.+ Baoning, and someone began to disturb. Without exception, they were all congratulating s.h.i.+ Baoning.
Even the family of Duke s.h.i.+ was prosperous and dignified, the position of Infanta with royal certification was by no means an insignificant reward.
In particular, those brothers and sisters in Second Master's Family and Third Master's Family came close to flatter eagerly, making s.h.i.+ Baoning overwhelmed.
s.h.i.+ Qingxue returned to Luotong Boudoir by herself, but she didn't expect to meet a person who had been waiting for a long time.
