PFC Chapter 108 Who is she?
Chapter 108 Who is she?
Qin Lingruo became more and more excited as she spoke, and was looking forward to finding out who this Xu Xinyue was.
"Brother, what kind of woman is Xu Xinyue? I am really looking forward to meeting her!"
When Qin Yuechuan mentioned Xu Xianyue, his eyebrows softened unconsciously. He lowered his eyelashes, and a smile unconsciously spread across his lips. His tone was as gentle as the whispers in the wind:
"She is a woman like moonlight..."
Gentle and clear, just like the coolness and softness of the bright moon in the sky, untainted by dust.
Independent yet gentle, bright yet not dazzling.
The light falling on the palm of your hand always flows quietly...
Qin Yuechuan seemed to be immersed in an incomparably beautiful vision. His demeanor softened along with his eyes.
Qin Lingruo and Qin Xingyue both widened their eyes and looked at each other with disbelief on their faces.
Qin Yuechuan, who is usually as cold and indifferent as frost, when did he actually show such a soft side!
"...This makes me want to meet Xu Xianyue even more."
Even Xu Mingxi back then had never made Qin Yuechuan look like this. All he had was a frown and a gloomy sigh.
Qin Lingruo hesitated and said, "Well... although it may spoil the mood a bit... but I still want to remind you... Xu Mingxi seems to be going there that day as well.
The other day I saw Qin Yuling asking for a letter from the Queen Mother. Who could have asked her to do that? After thinking about it, I could only think of Xu Mingxi, who was on good terms with her..."
Hearing Xu Mingxi, Qin Yuechuan immediately restrained his gentle expression: "Yueyue and she were once sisters in the Xu Mansion. Although she has asked for the family tree now, I am worried..."
He raised his eyes again and said to Qin Lingruo earnestly, "Although I can arrange for someone to help, there is a difference between men and women. I have also heard about the filthiness of the backyard. I hope you can take care of it for me."
Qin Lingruo nodded in response, also with a serious face: "Royal brother, I know my limits."
"Um……"
Qin Xingyue, who was standing by, finally found an opportunity and said hesitantly, "Seventh sister, if there is a young lady with poor eyesight around Xu Xinyue... I hope you can also take care of her..."
Qin Lingruo glanced back and forth between Qin Yuechuan and Qin Xingyue. She stretched out her finger tremblingly, pretending to be heartbroken: "You, actually... actually..."
Qin Xingyue covered his lips with a fan and coughed lightly.
"Just remember."
"I want the horse 'Ji Mo' in your stable!"
"Qin Lingruo! Are you...taking advantage of someone's misfortune?!"
"This is about your lifelong event. Even if I tell my mother, she will definitely help me! Qin Xingyue, don't be ungrateful!"
"I am your royal brother! My dear royal brother!"
"I want to tell my mother!"
.........
Qin Yuechuan held his forehead with his hand, and really had no intention of watching the "brother and sister fighting". He stroked the hem of his robe, not caring whether the two heard it, and said goodbye and slowly left.
At this moment, he really wanted to see Yueyue...
Thinking of Xu Yuanshan's attitude towards him, Qin Yuechuan sighed inwardly again.

Today, everyone from the Xu Mansion gathered together.
Rong Mingguang forced himself to smile throughout the whole process and handed over the jewelry worth about 50,000 taels of silver to Xu Guanghai.
From then on, Aunt Rong was naturally promoted to the second wife.
During that time, the eye contact and flirting with Xu Guanghai really made Yang's stomach churn. If it weren't for her Xier and the upcoming welcoming banquet, she would urgently need to show up to clear her name.
She really couldn't tolerate Aunt Rong's behavior.
"I am very happy that Rong'er is loved by the Minister."
Rong Mingguang laughed dryly and said, "I have admired your demeanor since I was a child. I hope you can support me in the future..."
Rong Mingguang holds no official position, so if he wants to continue the glory of the Earl's Mansion, he can only rely on his son.
Xu Guanghai just perfunctorily said: "Sure, sure."
No matter what Rong Mingguang said, Xu Guanghai agreed without hesitation, but he never made it clear whether he agreed or refused.
This made Rong Mingguang quite depressed.
I cursed in my heart: "Is this old man going to cross the river and burn the bridge after getting the money? If you dare to deceive me, I will fight you to the death."
Yang found it funny to see Rong gloating over someone else's misfortune.
"It's been five or six days since the parade, Rong, your good days don't last long. I'll let you be proud for a few days."

"Miss, Kyoto is very lively these days!" Xiao Chan was combing Xu Xinyue's hair while chatting with her about the gossip she heard from the outside world.
Xu Xinyue was casually flipping through the invitation that Princess Hexi Qin Lingruo had sent her early this morning, which turned out to be an invitation to attend the "welcoming banquet" to celebrate the general's return to the court.
It's really strange. She has lived in seclusion since she was a child and has never made the acquaintance of any princess. The only person she is close to is Xia Xueyao. Why would Princess Hexi invite her alone to a "welcoming banquet"?
Xu Xinyue was full of doubts and couldn't figure it out.
Seeing Xu Xinyue staring at the post in a daze, Xiao Chan couldn't help but ask, "Miss, did you hear what I said?"
Immersed in her own thoughts, Xu Xinyue did not hear clearly what Xiaochan said. She just smiled and asked, "Xiaochan, can you tell me again?"
“I heard from you that there are many interesting things happening in Kyoto these days.
The first thing to do is the Xu Mansion. Miss, do you know that the wife of the Xu Mansion was kidnapped by the flower-picking bandits again? "
"Hmm?" Xu Xinyue instantly became interested, staring at Xiaochan in the mirror and curiously asked, "Is it Xu Guanghai's house?"
After being expelled from the clan and severing ties with relatives, Xu Xinyue was unwilling to even mention her uncle and just called Xu Guanghai by his first name.
“Yes, I heard that he will stay in the main courtyard.
The situation was similar to the last time. Also the next morning, when the maid entered the courtyard to help with washing, she saw the guards of the main courtyard lying all over the floor.
The master of the Xu Mansion yelled and lost his temper again, saying that his wife was missing and he sent people to look for her with great fanfare, even alarming the government office?"
"Did it alarm the government office?"
Somehow, Xu Xinyue always felt something was a little strange.
Xu Guanghai has always been a person who likes to save face. Even when he was looking for Yang last time, he hid in the carriage and came to pick her up. He didn't look like the kind of person who would expose his family's shame now...
It was as if, just like Qing Yang last time... he deliberately made it known to everyone...
"The madam of the Xu family is really unlucky. She was robbed twice in such a short period of time. Her reputation is really ruined... However, in my heart... I feel very happy.
When the master was in trouble, no one in the Xu family was willing to rescue him. They were all cold-hearted and heartless idiots!"
Xu Xinyue chuckled: "Okay, from now on, the affairs of the Xu Mansion have nothing to do with us... By the way, I saw a lot of boxes piled together in the front hall today. Did Daddy add anything new?"
Xiao Chan carefully glanced out the window, leaning over to Xu Xinyue's eyes and whispering in her ear, "It's not... I asked around, and it seems... it was sent by the prince..."
"Prince? ...A gift?" Xu Xinyue was surprised: "What was the gift? Why didn't I hear Dad mention it?"
Little Chan didn't know what was going on, so she answered honestly:
"It seems to be some clothes, jewelry, etc. The master took a look and seemed very angry. He said that it must be... inappropriate and asked the servant to go back the same way."
Clothes, jewelry...
It's not that Xu Xinyue was being sentimental, but she was the only female in the Xu family, so she knew exactly who the gift was for.
However, her father's recent attitude towards Prince Rong really confused her.
What kind of hatred do they have?
