Xiao Ling only thought that if it were not for his stubbornness, the two sisters would have supported each other for a long time.
However, Ling Yin was different from her. Ling Yin was likable. At least, she was likable by the Third household and Grandmother.
In his previous life, Xiao Ling did not care about these things. However, he could not care about them even if he wanted to.
As Xiao Ling was thinking, Xiao Yu, who was in the lead, had already lifted the curtain.
"Younger Sister, do you look better? I was so worried today." Xiao Yu was also carrying a food box in his hand. He was probably here to complement her speech.
Xiao Lingyin, who was following behind him, only looked at Xiao Ling gently. There was a charm in her eyes. Perhaps she had lived in the temple for a long time, so even her smile was gentle.
Xiao Ling went up to him with a smile and took the lunchbox from Xiao Yu's hands. His face was bright and radiant."I'm sorry to have made you worry.”
Then he looked at Xiao Lingyin,"You just came back, why are you here already? Why don't you take a good rest?"”
It was really tiring to travel.
Xiao Lingyin heard this and laughed,"If I hadn't heard that you were sick, I wouldn't have come over. Looking at you, you're not sick at all, but you're sleeping soundly.”
Xiao Ling's lazy look earlier was not a lie. Although he looked a little sick, Xiao Lingyin knew his temper very well. He must have just plotted a big scheme and was now recovering.
Thinking about what the servant girl had told her, Xiao Lingyin sighed inwardly. She did not expect Xiao Ling to have grown so much in the short time she had spent at the temple offering incense.
After a while, Xiao Ling pulled Xiao Yu and Xiao Lingyin to sit down together. Jinniang came over to serve tea, and the sisters chatted idly. However, Xiao Yu's sharp eyes caught sight of the pomegranate hairpin on the side.
"Sister, who gave this to you? Let big sister take a good look."
This pomegranate hairpin was obviously not something from the Xiao residence. The Xiao residence usually had very high-end things. Although this pomegranate hairpin was exquisite, it was not presentable.
Xiao Yu changed the topic to this, but he had a different thought.
After all, if it was not from the residence, it was sent by someone else. That could make a lot of articles.
"Big sister must be joking. This is from my little brother. He is still studying outside.”Xiao Ling just smiled and handed the hairpin to Xiao Yu.""It's been a long time since I've seen this little brat.”
Xiao Yu took it in embarrassment and glanced at Xiao Lingyin, who was sipping tea at the side. He thought to himself,'I'm afraid this is going to be difficult. My mother asked me to sound out Xiao Ling, but it would be fine if there was only one Xiao Ling, but it would be troublesome if there was another Xiao Lingyin.'
Xiao Lingyin's scheming skills were not inferior to hers. She was even more outstanding under the tutelage of the third branch. She was afraid that she would not be able to do well, but thinking of Miss Chen's request, she could only brace herself and go see Xiao Ling.
"Younger Sister, I heard that last night, your body wasn't good because that Fifth Young Lady's servant girl gave you a little one?”
Xiao Yu tried his best to keep his voice low and maintain a curious look."When sister is sick, does it hurt like needles?”
Xiao Ling chuckled to himself.'This Xiao Yu really has no self-control. I don't even need to test her. How did I fall for her plot in my previous life?'
"Sister, I really don't know how it hurts. It's just that my vision is blurry. I can hear what she's saying, but I don't have any reaction.”
Xiao Ling shook his head and said with a confused look,""However, sister, sister has only heard a little about it. Sister has been confused from yesterday until today. I wonder if sister can tell me what happened in detail?”
Xiao Yu was somewhat speechless. The person who had experienced the incident was right in front of him, yet he had managed to brush him off with a single sentence of muddle-headedness. Instead, he had turned the tables on him.
"How would sister know? I only heard someone mention that Diao Nu. They said that he was beaten to death and his corpse was thrown away by Huang Ye.”
Xiao Yu smiled sheepishly and looked at Xiao Ling.""Does little sister know how that lotus died?”
"Oh?" Xiao Ling feigned curiosity and looked at her. Sister knows?"
Xiao Yu was rebuffed again. He only smiled and did not say anything else.
"I didn't expect so many things to happen after I didn't come back these few days. That servant Diao is really bold.”Xiao Lingyin only agreed from the side, but when she said this, she looked at Xiao Yu. Her gaze made Xiao Yu feel a chill down his spine. She smiled embarrassedly and drank the tea.
"Oh right, I heard that in a few days, there will be a garden banquet planned by aunt. I wonder if I can see aunt.”
Xiao Lingyin, who had been silent all this while, looked up. She was still smiling when she said this, but Xiao Ling could see the coldness in her eyes.
It was probably because of Xiao Yu.
In his previous life, Xiao Lingyin had advised Xiao Ling many times that Xiao Yu was a heartless person who had done something behind his back. However, she was muddle-headed at the time and did not take it to heart.
Now that he thought about it, he really deserved it.
Xiao Yu was shocked when he heard the news. He was at a loss as to what to do with his tea. He was even absent-minded when he spoke to Xiao Ling and Xiao Lingyin.
After a while, he found an excuse and went back.
Of course, Xiao Ling understood Xiao Yu's intentions. If she could go to the garden banquet, her status in the manor would be greatly elevated. Now, she would have to go back to her room and think of a way.
After all, she wasn't Miss Chen's legitimate daughter, so she probably wouldn't bring her along. If she wanted to go, she could only think of a way herself.
Moreover, his aunt was the fourth daughter of the Xiao family, his father's fourth sister. She was the imperial concubine of the current court. She was more favored and scheming, and was more favored by the emperor. This was also why the third brother of the Xiao family could be a third-grade official in the court, and the second brother of the Xiao family could stand tall in the distant northern border.
Xiao Ling thought to himself,'In my previous life, my father was a businessman. But later on, Xiao Ling realized that my father was the most outstanding of the three brothers. Although he was a businessman, he planned all the actions of the second and third sons of the Xiao family. If it were not for my father, the Xiao family would have been destroyed long ago.'
However, even so, the Xiao family was also injured in that turmoil, and he also severed ties with the Xiao family in that turmoil.
Thinking about his past life gave Xiao Ling a headache. However, when he saw Xiao Lingyin, he felt that everything was wonderful.
Everything had just begun.
"Why? I haven't seen you for many days. You don't recognize me anymore, right?”Xiao Lingyin took Xiao Ling's hand and sighed again.""In the past, you only said that you didn't like these schemes and plots, but now, you're even more ruthless than me.”
Xiao Ling was originally smiling, but when he heard Xiao Lingyin's words, he felt his eyes turn moist.
Xiao Lingyin was shocked, but she comforted Xiao Ling.""Why are you so weak? You've never cried when I've said something more serious in the past.”
"Nothing can hide from your eyes," Xiao Ling sighed.”
As she said that, she looked at Xiao Lingyin again, but she just couldn't get enough of her. In her previous life, although she wanted to be with Han Lingxue, she still thought about Xiao Lingyin often. There was probably no one else who could treat her so well.
Xiao Lingyin frowned and thought for a while before sighing,"You've gone too far. Two lives, why don't you keep a low profile? If we make a scene together, wouldn't we be putting you under everyone's nose? Great Grandmother is not stupid. She naturally knows your methods. Miss Chen is also ruthless. She can't help but harm you.”
"So many years have passed. I'm sure you know.”Xiao Lingyin moved closer to her and said softly,"You have to lay low first. Don't be so ostentatious. Be careful. When the right time comes, they will naturally regret it.”
Xiao Ling's heart warmed when he heard that. He remembered that Xiao Lingyin had said the same thing to her a long time ago, but she rarely cared about it. Now that he thought about it, he was enlightened.
"I know what to do." Xiao Ling nodded and naturally took Xiao Lingyin's hand. He made it clear that he could only start with the two old ladies.
She had been flamboyant in the residence for so many years and had probably offended Miss Chen thoroughly. It was not her turn to rely on the second and third household, so naturally, there were only two old ladies left.
Xiao Lingyin nodded with satisfaction,"You can save it yourself."”After saying that, she was a little doubtful." Second Old Lady is still alright. She looks disgusting and kind. But Old Lady, what do you think we should do?”
" I know." Xiao Ling smiled." Haste makes waste."”
Xiao Ling Yin only pulled her and teased,"You only know how to eat."”
The two girls laughed for a while before a voice suddenly came from the door."Young lady, the young master is here."
Xiao Xiao was ranked third among the young masters. The first two were the sons of the second branch.
"Forget it, it's getting late today. I'll go back first.”Xiao Lingyin also stood up. She was originally from the third branch, so she shouldn't be so close to the first branch, let alone when it was getting late.
After saying that, Xiao Lingyin left. Xiao Ling did not stay any longer. After all, Xiao Lingyin's eldest sister was not easy to deal with.
"Let him in." His gaze fell on the pomegranate hairpin again. Xiao Ling's heart skipped a beat as he spoke coldly.
"Sister, Sister!" Xiao Xiao ran over from the door. It had probably been a while since they last met, but this kid's head had grown up again. His features were clear and his bones were delicate. In a few years, he would be a beautiful young man who would seduce the souls of countless women.
"Come and sit." Xiao Ling's heart softened. After living two lives, the only thing he could not let go of was his younger brother.
