Green tea was read, the villain's family begged me to be happy

Chapter 179 Going Out to Argue

Xu Wanying didn't react much to the system's angry questioning.

In ancient times, the custom was that men worked outside and women worked inside, and women were not allowed to go out of the house. If they went out often, they would be exposed to public and would probably be gossiped about.

Men have been taught since childhood to stay away from the royal family, otherwise they will easily lose their ambition.

So Xu Wanying thought it was normal that the Jiang family men did not show up, but the system was very dissatisfied and kept muttering about it.

[System, whether the Jiang family man shows up or not, what does it have to do with you? Your man is not in there, why are you so resentful every day? ]

Xu Wanying couldn't help it and started to retort directly.

The system was temporarily blocked from speaking, and did not make a sound. After a moment, it reacted and said unhappily: [Host, I am worried about you! ]

[Don't tell lies like that. You're clearly worried about Xing Xiaoya. Does it have anything to do with me whether the Jiang family man comes back or not? ]

[How come it doesn’t matter? Don’t you know——] The system was about to say something when a maid came in to report.

"Madam, the second lady wants you to go out and play!"

When Xing Xiaoya heard that she could go out and play, she instantly became enthusiastic and agreed immediately.

"Did my second sister-in-law say where we're going to play? What should we prepare?"

"The Second Madam said there's no need to prepare anything. We're all family members playing together, no outsiders."

Xu Wanying packed up her things simply and then reunited with Lu Ling together with her maid.

Lu Ling was also traveling lightly, with a smile on her face, looking like a spring breeze.

"Second sister-in-law, something happy happened to you. Your face looks rosy and radiant." Xu Wanying's mood improved when she saw her amiable look, and she couldn't help but teasing her.

Lu Ling chuckled at what she said and whispered in her ear, "It was your second brother who asked us to go horseback riding together. He's waiting at the stable."

When Xu Wanying heard this, her eyes suddenly lit up. She had wanted to ride a horse for a long time, but after she came into this body, she had been lying in bed recuperating. Later, the Jiang family encountered various troubles and she had no chance at all.

Now that she could finally go out riding, she was of course happy, but this suggestion was made by Mr. Jiang, so she suddenly hesitated.

"My second brother invited my second sister-in-law to go out and play, why did he bring me along? Otherwise, I won't go this time. You two should have fun!"

Although she wanted to go horseback riding, she didn't want to be a third wheel.

"That's nothing. It was your second brother who specifically asked me to bring you along. There's nothing to do in the mansion, so why not come with us? Chengxiao isn't as promising as the third brother, but he's still quite good at playing. I guarantee you'll be happy!"

Xu Wanying quickly accepted it and asked, "Do you want to change into riding clothes?"

"No need, you can change it when you get there, there are ready-made ones."

The two of them walked forward hand in hand, but ran into Xing Xiaoya head-on.

"Where are you two sisters-in-law going?"

After the greetings, Xing Xiaoya took the initiative to ask. She seemed to be accustomed to her status and now she can call her "sister-in-law".

Xu Wanying and Lu Ling looked at each other, and Lu Ling took the initiative to speak: "Wanying and I have an appointment to go out today."

She didn't say what she was going to do, but it was this vagueness that made people stop in their tracks.

After all, it sounds like there's no need to delve into this, it should be a private matter.

But Xing Xiaoya didn't know whether she didn't understand or was doing it on purpose, she actually said directly: "Two sisters-in-law, take me with you too? It's too boring for me to be alone in the mansion."

"This..." Lu Ling was a little stuck, obviously not knowing how to refuse her.

Fortunately, Li Chunlan came over at this time, "You are all here, what are you talking about?"

"My third brother's wife and I have to go out for something, and Xiaoya wants to come with us, but..." Lu Ling explained. She didn't finish her words, but the embarrassed expression on her face was so obvious that everyone could see her embarrassment at a glance.

"Well, then you two can go out. Xiaoya, if you feel bored, your sister-in-law will play with you. There are so many fun things in my yard!" Li Chunlan said as she took Xing Xiaoya's arm and was about to take her away.

But before she had taken a few steps, her arm was pulled down forcefully. Xing Xiaoya turned around and still insisted on her opinion: "Two sisters-in-law, after I came to Wangjing from the countryside, I seldom go out to play. I really want to go out. Can you take me out? Then you can do your business, and I will go around by myself."

Xing Xiaoya felt very uneasy during the past few days in the Marquis of Loyalty's Mansion. She always felt that the Marquis' Mansion was definitely going to harm her.

In addition, none of the men in the Jiang family returned home, which seemed abnormal. The more enthusiastic the women were towards her, the more afraid she became. All kinds of dark novel plots kept popping up in her mind. For a wealthy mansion like the Loyalty Marquis's Mansion, it would be easy for them to kill a poor girl like her.

She was afraid that she would be killed directly, and then she would fabricate some false evidence and find a scapegoat. Even if Princess Zhaoyang wanted to avenge her, she would not find a chance, and she would probably die in vain.

It was the most sensitive time. When she heard that Lu Ling and the other person were going out, she wanted to follow them no matter what, hoping to find a chance to escape.

"This--" Just when the atmosphere was tense, unexpectedly, Cen Ying sent a maid over.

"Madams, Miss Xing, Madam Hou said that the weather is good today, so she wants to take you out of the house to play!"

After the maid passed the message, several people rushed to Shoukang Garden, but they met Cen Ying halfway.

Cen Ying glanced at them and asked softly, "The carriage is ready. If you have nothing else to do, get in and go."

"Mom, where are we going?" Li Chunlan asked.

"You'll know when you get there. You and Xiaoya can ride together." Cen Ying was obviously unwilling to answer and even winked at her.

Li Chunlan immediately understood and pulled Xing Xiaoya into the car.

"Did the second brother ask you to go out today?" Cen Ying took the initiative to find Lu Ling and ask.

Lu Ling nodded: "Mother, when that person entered the Marquis' Mansion, Chengxiao was very nervous. He had previously made himself dizzy in order to avoid going to the Princess' Mansion to look for someone. Now that they are about to live under the same roof, he is even more uncertain. So he thought about getting in touch with the third brother's wife more to make his mind clearer."

"Let's go together." Cen Ying made the decision.

"Ah? Mom, are we bringing that girl along too? Chengxiao will get sick again when he sees her, right?" When Lu Ling heard this, her eyes widened in surprise.

Now she didn't even dare to say the three names "Xing Xiaoya", for fear that there might be ears on the other side of the wall, so she just referred to her as "that person".

"Wanying is here too, so it's a good opportunity to try out the effects. I can't hide forever, right?"

Lu Ling frowned and said somewhat disapprovingly: "You don't have to hide forever. She will get married eventually. When the time comes, find a good match for her and marry her off—"

"Will she really rest assured after getting married? You heard what the artifact said. She is not a woman who is devoted to her husband. If the second brother sees her in the future, he will be in trouble. Besides, is hiding really useful? If it is useful, wouldn't it be better to let the third brother accompany her outside the mansion? But you also saw that no matter how the third brother tried to stop her, she still got to know Princess Zhaoyang. If we hadn't taken the initiative when the princess entered the palace, she might have been in a completely uncontrollable situation..."
