As expected, Tuoba Feng couldn't help but sneeze.
"This is for you."
Xiao Ling quickly took out his handkerchief and gestured for Tuoba Feng to cover his mouth and nose. Although Tuoba Feng was a woman, she was used to living a carefree life and never carried these female accessories with her.
Tuoba Feng gratefully took Xiao Ling's handkerchief and carefully covered his mouth and nose. He realized that Xiao Ling had taken out another handkerchief.
Seeing Tuoba Feng's strange expression, Xiao Ling laughed.""I specially prepared that handkerchief for you. It's soaked in medicine. You won't sneeze if you cover your mouth and nose.”
Tuoba Feng could not help but feel touched. He held Xiao Ling's hand and said,""Xiao Ling, I knew you were a good girl.”
At that moment, Xiao Lingyin was walking to the side, but she suddenly slowed down. Before she could say anything, a figure came up behind her. Xiao Lingyin was knocked into, but fortunately, Xiao Ling was quick enough to help her up, so she did not make a fool of herself.
Xiao Qing was the one who walked faster. Xiao Ling was a little surprised. He did not expect Xiao Qing to be so reckless. Xiao Lingyin did not look too good, but she did not flare up because there were many people around. Not many people noticed them either.
By then, the crowd had already entered the Rose Garden.
At this moment, there were many tents set up beside the many roses. There was one at a distance from each other. The young ladies looked outstanding and their beautiful eyes were moving, making people drunk.
She thought so, but she couldn't stop her footsteps. She couldn't show any fear or make herself a joke.
After walking for a while, the female official brought them to a tent and bowed to signal them.
Tuoba Feng led the way and led Xiao Ling and the others in. By then, Xiao Qing had already disappeared.
"Will something happen to your sister?”
Tuoba Feng felt much better after he entered the tent. At least, there was no strong fragrance of flowers. Tuoba Feng was also a meticulous person. If something happened to Xiao Qing, it would affect everyone in the Xiao Manor.
"Probably not. Xiao Qing is a meticulous person.”Xiao Ling was a little worried, but it was not a good time to go out and look for her. He would just wait for Xiao Qing to come back.
Xiao Xun nodded and said," I saw a noble lady outside just now. Xiao Qing went there for that noble lady. She should have some dealings with Xiao Qing."”
The rest of the girls were relieved and did not refuse. They found a place to sit down.
Tuoba Feng glanced at the fruits on the table and his face turned cold. There were some brush, ink, paper, and inkstone on the table. Beside them was a zither set. It looked very exquisite.
"These things again." Tuoba Feng's expression turned ugly. He stared at those things for a while, then stopped talking and sat at the side.
"It's fine if you don't like it. I heard from my sisters at home that you can sing too. It won't be bad to sing a song when the time comes.”
She knew why Tuoba Feng looked so unhappy. She did not have any special musical skills, but she still had to do this every year so that the young ladies here could decide a ranking so that the handsome men could match up.
Most importantly, Tuoba Feng's status was high enough that she had no choice but to participate. Even if she didn't know anything, there would still be people cheering for her. This was the most awkward part about Tuoba Feng. Everyone knew about it, but everyone still pretended not to know anything and cheered for her.
Some of the girls had bad intentions. If they booed or something, it would be embarrassing.
Suddenly, footsteps came from the door.
The girls in the tent paused. Now that some of the girls were in the same camp, it was obvious that they had widened the distance between them. Some people would not go to other people's camps for no reason. If they suddenly came to other people's doors, they were not looking for trouble. They could not think of anyone else.
At that moment, the voice of a female official came from outside the tent. Everyone waited for a few seconds before Xiao Qing pulled open the curtain and walked in.
At that time, the Xiao sisters didn't say anything because Xiao Qing had just left them behind with someone else. Although they were sisters, they still minded it and didn't want to talk to Qing Zhu. Tuoba Feng also didn't like Xiao Qing, so he didn't want to talk to her.
Xiao Qing's face was cold. When she came in, she was also a little embarrassed. She was too reckless just now. After running out to say a few words to the noble girl, she reacted. She ran out, but she didn't greet her sisters.
However, she was not in the noble girl's camp. Even if she was, she could not leave her sisters. She could only bite the bullet and come back. However, the situation was still good. There was no mockery as she had imagined.
However, not long after Xiao Qing sat down, someone stopped at the entrance of the tent.
Then, the female official apologized and carefully lifted the curtain. However, she was very careful not to bring up any wind, so naturally, no fragrance of flowers rushed in.
Xiao Ling praised her in his heart. This was the demeanor of the people in the inner court of the imperial palace. They remembered every girl's hobbies and dislikes clearly and guaranteed that they would take care of every girl. Of course, every girl here was only a girl with a high enough status. The female officials would probably not even take a fancy to the girls of the Xiao family.
"Miss Tuoba, Miss An is here.”
Tuoba Feng looked a little surprised. He held Xiao Ling's handkerchief in his hand and paused for a moment before wiping his nose. He nodded with a complicated expression and said,""Let her in."
The female official then left.
Xiao Ling noticed Tuoba Feng's strange expression. He wanted to ask, but he heard the curtain move. He saw a refined lady walking in from outside.
This girl was really beautiful. She had a unique style, and she looked fresh and bright, which made people like her. However, the way she looked at Tuoba Feng was a little unpredictable.
Strangely enough, Miss An was dressed like a man. Her hair was tied up high, and there was a sword-like eyebrow drawn on her forehead. She really looked like a handsome man. She was also wearing a long robe that made it hard to tell whether she was male or female. If it were not for her slightly bulging chest and the fact that she really looked like a woman, and the female official in front of him had specially informed him, Xiao Ling might have misunderstood her.
The other girls were also a little puzzled, but none of them said anything. Since Miss An could walk in without anyone around, she must have an extremely strong background. They were afraid that they could not afford to offend her.
"Tuoba Feng, you haven't seen me for such a long time. Are you avoiding me on purpose?”
The girl walked in with a smile. When she saw the group of young ladies sitting around her, her face darkened."Where are you guys from?"
Then, he looked at Tuoba Feng and said,"Aren't you going to accompany me when you have so many people accompanying you?" What a heartless person!"
Xiao Ling had thought that she was someone who had a good relationship with Tuoba Feng, but he could not hear any familiarity in her voice. She did not sound like an ordinary friend. Xiao Ling was puzzled and could not help but glance at Miss An. He did not expect her to be sizing her up as well. The two of them exchanged glances.
" Tsk tsk, what a symbol…" After saying that, Miss An looked at Tuoba Feng and said,""With such a person accompanying you day and night, you forgot about me, didn't you?”
Xiao Ling was holding a teacup in his hand. He finally realized that something was wrong.
Why was Miss An talking to Tuoba Feng with such bitterness in her words? She actually felt like a resentful wife.
Xiao Lingyin tugged at Xiao Ling's hand with a strange expression on her face, but she did not say anything. She only tugged at Xiao Ling's hand and signaled him not to look at Miss An. Xiao Ling was just curious, but he did not ask further.
"It's just that I haven't had the time recently. I just-"
Tuoba Feng took a sip of tea and said with an awkward expression. No one knew what kind of expression he had, but he could only force out a strange smile.
However, Miss An had sharp eyes. She immediately saw the handkerchief in Tuoba Feng's hand and expressed her surprise,""Tuoba Feng, where did you get that handkerchief in your hand? Didn't you never wear these girly things?”
Noticing Tuoba Feng's increasingly awkward expression, Xiao Ling stood up and said,""I gave this to Sister Feng. Sister Feng is allergic to the smell of roses, so I gave her a handkerchief. It's soaked in medicine so she won't sneeze anymore.”
Xiao Ling spoke in a natural and graceful manner, and it was obvious that he was kind-hearted. However, Miss An did not have such an expression. Instead, she snorted at Xiao Ling and said with a hint of arrogance,""Then I've really troubled you.”
Xiao Ling did not mind. He just sat down. No matter how hard he thought, he could not find Lady An's name in his memory. He probably did not know Tuoba Feng in his previous life, so he did not know this lady.
Naturally, Xiao Lingyin felt that it was unfair for Xiao Ling, but she was a rational person and would not do anything about it. She merely patted Xiao Ling's arm, and he turned to smile at her.
"Let's sit together. The banquet is about to begin.”
Tuoba Feng looked at Xiao Ling apologetically, but when she saw that he did not seem to mind at all, her expression eased up a little. However, Tuoba Feng's expression was still very awkward when he faced Miss An.
"An Ming, why did you come here alone? Where is your brother?"
Tuoba Feng asked her softly.
"What's so good about being with those stinky men? I missed you so much that I came to look for you.”
An Ming looked as if it was a matter of course, but then she seemed to have thought of something. She sniffled and snorted coldly."I heard about it when I returned to the capital a few days ago. Those little b * tches are always going around with you. Come with me to meet them later.”
Tuoba Feng's expression was indifferent, but he didn't say anything. He just poured another cup of tea and passed it to An Ming. Then, she didn't say anything. Since she didn't say anything, naturally, no one would talk to her. However, An Ming would occasionally look around at the people around her, which made people's hair stand on end.
