My Ferocious Tigress Wife

Chapter 463: Doubles

Translator: 549690339 ,

Xiao Ning was staying in the Xie family’s residence. What she lacked the most in Jiankang City was manpower, not to mention that she had no source of information in the Xie family’s residence.

She knew about the consort selection for Emperor Yong Ping. It had been a hot topic recently.

However, she didn’t know who to choose.

Hearing what Lady Yuan had said, Xiao Ning’s face turned solemn. These people were either from aristocratic families or were related to the royal family. None of them were ordinary people.

She had once heard Princess Xuancheng say that the Empress Dowager was choosing a concubine for her beauty.

Perhaps it was also to make up for her, the Empress’s regret and not want the

Emperor to be wronged?

Presumably, these few people had a rich family background and were beautiful.

“However, you don’t have to worry too much. You are still the Empress. As long as you don’t make any mistakes, the Emperor won’t touch you easily.”

Madam Yuan held Xiao Ning’s hand.

“Although your father isn’t in Jiankang, the Xie family and your grandaunt are

still here. We are all your support.”

Xiao Baoxin was silent. Mrs. Yuan had gone all out for her son. He was originally a person who ate vegetarian food and chanted Buddhist scriptures. He did not care about anything. Now, he did not hesitate to get involved in the internal strife.

The Xie family couldn’t just watch Xiao Ning being taken over by the Emperor in the palace, so they naturally had to depend on each other.

She didn’t expect Xiao Ning to put the Xie family first, but at least she wouldn’t be fooled and drag the Xie family down.

A few days ago, Xie Wan had woken Xiao Ning up. Now, Madam Yuan was trying to rope her in. She pulled her down and gently pushed her up. The mother and daughter worked well together.

“Aunt taught me a lesson.” Xiao Ning said in a low voice. Her face was slightly red. Fortunately, her skin was not white, so it was not that obvious.

He finally realized that he had been too short-sighted a while ago and had been intimidated by Shangyi. He threw away the things that he should be friendly with and raised himself up high. She had completely forgotten that her own capital was her family background, putting the cart before the horse.

Fortunately, Xie Wan’s words woke her up.

Xiao Ning was not a short-sighted person since she had been in charge of the

Xiao family’s back house in Yizhou for many years. However, she had just entered Jiankang. After several changes, she had become the future Empress. Her mentality had undergone a subtle change. She was blinded for a moment and only wanted to control the harem. She could not be looked down upon and wanted to do everything to the best.

Xie Wan’s words might not be her own meaning. It was very likely that it was instructed by the elders in the family.

Now that Madam Yuan had called her out, if she didn’t make a stand, it would be difficult for her to live with herself in the future.

The Xiao clan was his most reliable helper, but now that Yizhou was at war, far away, the Xie clan was like the sun at noon in the court, and Xie Xian was the Emperor’s right-hand man.

It was too clear. It was still a little difficult to point out her maternal family. For now, however, the Xie family was right in front of her and they were real relatives. The two of them were strong allies.

Therefore, Xiao Ning lowered her stance.

“It’S not a lesson, it’s a heart-to-heart talk with you.”There was finally a hint of a smile in Madam Yuan’s eyes.” Ever since you came to Jiankang, I thought highly of you the first time I saw you. You’re straightforward and magnanimous, and you have the style of a forest. I’m not calculative or pretentious, so I’ll just talk to you.”

Xiao Ning nodded.” I understand. I was wrong a while ago.”

“It’s not that you’re thinking wrongly. You want to do well in everything, and it’s not wrong to make people unable to find fault with the rules. However, Ning, you weren’t chosen as the Empress because of the rules.”Madam Yuan said.

As soon as he finished speaking, the car stopped. Mrs. Yuan’s words came to an abrupt halt, and she could only savor the rest by herself. She had to walk the path herself.

There was an endless stream of people putting on makeup for the Chu family’s daughter. They had already blocked the door and were about to line up to the entrance of the alley.

The Chu family had long seen through this. The second branch had sent San

Lang and Qi Lang to maintain order.

Seeing that the Xie family had arrived, the two young men hurriedly came over to greet them. Each of them had delicate features and was beaming with joy. They were as polite as they could be.

Madam Wang was about to fall ill. When she saw the two young men, she only sighed. Unfortunately, one was married and the other was engaged. There was no hope.

Xiao Ning held Madam Yuan’s hand and walked in front. Xiao Baoxin, who was pregnant, didn’t move forward. He walked behind Xie Wan with two maids, one Caiwei and one Youmei. They were well-prepared.

Before she could walk up the steps, Second Madam Yuan, who had been waiting at the entrance, came up to her. This was her second sister. She was two years older than Mrs. Yuan, round face and round eyes. Although she was not as beautiful as Mrs. Yuan, she was more good-looking than Mrs. Yuan. She had a tofu mouth and a tofu heart.

“I’ve been waiting for you for a long time. Go in quickly, Erlang’s wife, invite the honored guest in quickly.”He turned to Madam Yuan and said,” Go in and help me greet them. I won’t be busy outside. There are still a few families that haven’t come.””

Before Madam Yuan could respond, she smiled at Madam Wang.

-How have you been? I was busy with Liuniang’s marriage and didn’t go to see you. I heard that you were sick. I’m so glad you came… Let’s talk in detail later.” Chu Erlang’s daughter-in-law was the fourth daughter of the He family’s eldest son. She was broad-minded and fat. She had just given birth to her first son for half a year and had yet to recover. She was even more shameless and round than her mother-in-law, Lady Yuan.

This was the legendary He family’s most beautiful wife. She was talented and beautiful, and she played the zither so well that even Xie Xian was full of praise.

Xiao Baoxin’s heart shuddered when she saw this. She did not want this to happen.

After giving birth to me, she will pick up her martial arts! She would never allow herself to become fat like a ball!

“What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?”

Following behind He Si Niangzi all the way into Chu Lingzi’s courtyard, Xie Wan leaned into Xiao Baoxin’s ear and asked, her expression changing.

Xiao Baoxin shook his head. He Si Niangzi was right in front of them. If people heard her, they wouldn’t want to become as fat as her. If they didn’t chase her out with a broom, she would take the He family’s surname.

“There are quite a lot of people.” The moment Xiao Baoxin entered the courtyard, he could hear the laughter of young ladies in twos and threes. There were also people looking at flowers in the courtyard. When he entered the house, it was filled with young ladies, each of them more beautiful than flowers.

“It’s always like this.”

The eldest lady of the Xie family had only done more makeup than this person, not less. At that time, Shi Zhong Xie was still alive, and Third Master Xie had a high status in the officialdom and had a wide range of friends.

Only now did Xiao Baoxin know that the make-up of a noble daughter of an aristocratic family was on such a scale. It was even more lively than her wedding.

“Shall we go find Sixth Aunt?” Xiao Ning stood at the side like a crane among chickens. She was half a head taller than most young ladies. However, this crane’s appearance was too ordinary.

One after another, the young ladies exchanged blows with each other, and they found their good friends to leave the house, finally leaving some space. Before Xiao Baoxin could find Chu Lingzi, he heard her call out,“Eldest Lady, Ah Wan, Ah Ning, over herel’Tt was also suitable for her usual personality, like a tomboy.

Everyone’s voices became softer as they looked towards the door.

Xiao Baoxin and the other two immediately became the focus of attention.

At this moment, he saw Chu Lingzi dressed in a grass green traditional dress with light makeup. Her eyebrows were slightly swept away, and she looked elegant and beautiful. However, her personality was like a wild horse that had lost its reins. If not for Lil ‘Miss pulling her, she would have rushed over..
