The two of them were in the room fixing their appearance. After a while, they walked out.
They narrowly escaped death today. If Master Xie and Master Zhou were a minute late, the two of them would have really died.
“Master Mo… Can the wounds on our faces really not be seen?” Yuan Lingyin asked carefully.
Xie Qiao nodded. “My skills are very good.”
There was something for makeup in her bamboo basket.
Now was a good time to put it to use. Not only that, she also had a needle and thread in her basket. Even their clothes had been sewn up. As long as one did not look carefully, they would not be able to see anything off.
At this moment, they felt that talking to Master Mo would make them feel more at ease.
“Lift your head and stand straight. What are you afraid of?” Xie Qiao frowned slightly. “When we enter the city later, try your best to get down and walk around. Don’t look at people like frightened little deer. It’ll make people think.”
If they were to secretly send them back to the residence, word would spread.
The two of them nodded obediently.
“Also…” Xie Qiao looked at Young Lady Yuan and said, “Since I’ve accepted your birth mother’s request, I naturally have to give you some advice. When you go back… you should think carefully about who you’ve offended and who in the residence knows that you’re going to the weaving house. You have to get to the bottom of this.”
When Yuan Lingyin heard that, she nodded solemnly.
She really did not understand what she had done wrong for others to harm her like this!
Dong Yiyun’s feet suddenly froze.
“What’s wrong?” Yuan Lingyin asked her with concern.
Dong Yiyun was a little hesitant. She thought for a moment and said, “I-I suddenly remembered that it was my Eldest Sister… who told me about the weaving house selling the light steam brocade today…”
“You don’t think that it was your Eldest Sister who did it, right?” Yuan Lingyin asked in a low voice, “But why? When I went to your house previously, Sister Dong was very nice to me. Also, y-you are her biological sister. If something happens to you and your reputation is bad, she won’t be much better off…”
Be bound together for good or ill?
“But… my Eldest Sister also said that the brocade doesn’t suit me very well. It’s too dazzling. And you… are going to be the Fourth Prince’s side consort, so… You’ll look better in it…”
She only said later.
However, she had no choice but to think through it at the moment.
When Yuan Lingyin heard that, her face turned pale.
She would not do that, right?
Just because she would be the Fourth Prince’s side consort, so Dong Xiyun wanted to get rid of her?!
The Fourth Prince was a noble of the royal family. In the future, it was impossible for him to only have one consort. Even if she was gone, there would still be someone else, no?
“Perhaps I’m thinking too much… Let the government investigate. After we return home, our parents will decide for us. It’s useless to think so much.” Dong Yiyun exhaled and tried hard to calm her panicked thoughts.
She did not know when she had lost that trust in her eldest sister. After such a thing happened, she could not help but suspect her first!
This made her feel sad and sullen.
They were from the same mother!
The two of them looked depressed.
They boarded the carriage and went back to the city. After entering the city, they did not forget to do as Master Mo said. They bought two things at the best cosmetic store in the capital and then went home.
The news of the two missing noble ladies in the capital had long spread.
Now that the two of them had shown, they could at least restore some of their reputation.. After all, if something major had really happened, this lady would have been terribly scared. How would they still be so carefree to go shopping?
