Chapter 477 Do you dare to scold me?

A few people looked up and saw several young girls walking along the path not far away, led by a maid.

One of the girls walking in front was dressed in red and green, with jewelry on her head and body. Her hairpins jingled as she walked, quite like a walking jewelry shelf.

The face painted with makeup was full of disdain, and the eyes were full of arrogance.

Behind her, another girl in an elegant white dress quickly pulled her and persuaded her softly:

"Sister, this is someone else's house. It depends on the owner to beat the dog. Have you forgotten your grandmother's warning?"

"Humph, this is not a dog! It's just a maid. She talks so arrogantly, which shows that she just bought her and hasn't learned the rules yet. I'll discipline her for the General's Mansion to prevent her from making arrogant remarks later and making a joke. , bringing shame to the General’s Palace. I am doing a good deed, the General’s Palace will thank me, and my grandmother will praise me.”

While they were talking, several people had already arrived in front of Qiao Ran and the others.

When Lin Suxin heard someone laughing at Sister Ran like this, she angrily stepped forward to argue:

"Miss Zhang Er, this is my sister Ran. She is the niece that my uncle just found. She is the cousin of the General's Mansion. She is not a servant. You are not allowed to insult others!"

Lin Sumei hurriedly stepped forward to give her sister a hand, but Su Xin pouted and glared at the person who made the rude remarks angrily.

Lin Sumei quickly smoothed things over and introduced with a smile: "Sister Yunxiang, you misunderstood, this is my uncle's niece, Qiao Ran. Sister Ran, this is the second young lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Zhang Yunxiang. This is the eldest lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Zhang Yunwan."

She pointed at the girl in the yellow dress with a mocking look and the elegant girl in the white dress.

Then, he went on to introduce the other three girls to Qiao Ran, all of whom were daughters of second-rank or higher officials in the imperial court.

Upon hearing the introduction of herself, Zhang Yunxiang raised her face and said disdainfully with her eyelids down:

"Oh, so this is the daughter of the eldest lady who just came back from the General's Palace? She is indeed a little village girl. She is so ugly, and her dress is worse than that of the maids in our Prime Minister's Palace. Don't blame me for thinking that she was wrong. The maid of the General's Mansion. Those who don't know are not guilty. I think this little, uh, Miss Qiao won't mind, right?"

Zhang Yunxiang seemed to be about the same age as Lin Suxin, but not as tall as Lin Suxin. She was a head shorter when she stood in front of Qiao Ran. It was difficult for her to look up and look down on him.

Just as Qiao Ran was about to speak, Zhang Yunwan stepped forward. Yingying blessed Qiao Ran and apologized softly:

"Miss Qiao, I'm so sorry! My sister is still young, innocent, and speaks more straightforwardly. I hope you won't be offended."

"Sister, I said I misunderstood and it was not intentional. Miss Qiao will definitely not mind. Why do you need to apologize to her?"

When Zhang Yunxiang saw her sister apologizing to this little village girl, she immediately refused.

In her opinion, she is the daughter of the prime minister's palace, and this little village girl is just the cousin of the general's palace. The word "cousin" means that she is not the lady of the general's palace, but only the general's palace. Just relatives.

A little village girl who fled from the countryside is nothing more than a despicable bastard. What qualifications do she have to accept the apology from the lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion?

Compared with Zhang Yunxiang's unruly and willful attitude, Zhang Yunwan appears to be particularly humble and gentle.

She gave her sister a comforting look, and then confessed to Qiao Ran with her gentle expression:

"Miss Qiao, I'm so sorry! My sister has been spoiled by her family. I really didn't mean to offend you. Miss Qiao is open-minded, so don't argue with a child like her."

As soon as she finished speaking, several ladies following her started talking in low voices.

"Sister Yun Wan is so kind! As the eldest lady of the Prime Minister's Palace, she doesn't show off at all and is so polite when talking to a little village girl."

"That's right, I think Yunxiang is right. We didn't mistake her for a maid on purpose. Who made her look so ugly and dress so plain and old-fashioned? She looks even more old-fashioned than my grandmother. .”

Seeing Qiao Ran's delay in speaking, Qin Yuelan behind her couldn't help but take two steps forward and said softly to the two ladies opposite:

"Don't worry, Sister Yunwan, Sister Yunxiang, Sister Ran is not a stingy person, and she won't care about Sister Yunxiang's unintentional words. Right, Sister Ran?"

Before Qiao Ran said a word, she watched these wealthy officials from the capital perform a not-so-splendid drama in front of her.

In her previous life, she had read some dramas and novels about house fights and palace fights, and had gone on missions in various disguises. How could she not see the clumsy tricks of these wealthy ladies?

She smiled faintly, looked sympathetically at Zhang Yunxiang, who was still like a proud little peacock, and then looked at Zhang Yunwan and Qin Yuelan, who were gentle and generous. She slightly curved her lips and nodded:

"Well, since you have said so, it would seem that I am ignorant of praise if I care about it. But although I did not grow up in the capital, my grandmother warned me since I was a child, 'The tongue has no bones, but it can hurt people. , words cannot be expressed, every word hurts the heart. I am told to think twice before speaking, and not to hurt others with my words. I think the upbringing you ladies have received should be no less than that of a girl who grew up in the countryside like me. Naturally, I know how to think in my head before speaking. You have to think carefully before speaking out, so what you just said must have been carefully considered."

As soon as she said this, except for the two sisters from the Lin family and Zhang Yunxiang beside her, the faces of the other ladies all changed.

Zhang Yunxiang saw that no one spoke after the little village girl finished speaking, and looked at everyone strangely, only to see the looks of shame and anger on everyone's faces.

After frowning and thinking for a while, she suddenly realized: "You...what do you mean by saying this? Are you saying that we are talking without thinking? Do you dare to scold me? Do you, do you know who I am?"

Miss Zhang Er's words even made the other ladies' faces darken.

"I know, you are the second young lady of the Prime Minister's Palace."

Qiao Ran replied calmly.

"You..., you are a little village girl, you don't know where you learned some sour sentences, and you still start writing? Humph! I just don't think you look like a wealthy lady, and mistakenly think you are a girl from the general's palace. It's just a ring, and I didn't mean to scold you, so why are you going around the corner and scolding people?"

Zhang Yunxiang pointed at Qiao Ran and turned red with anger.

In all her life, she had never been so humiliated except in front of a few favored princesses in the palace.

This wild girl from the countryside is indeed a little village girl who has no respect for herself and doesn't know how to appreciate others!

Qiao Ran pretended to be surprised: "Why did Miss Zhang Er say this? May I ask which sentence or word you used to curse someone?"

"You scolded me for speaking without thinking. Doesn't that mean you scolded me for being brainless? You still don't admit it?"

Zhang Yunxiang was so angry that if it weren't for the fact that this was the General's Mansion, if this was outside on the street, she would have asked her servants to teach this rude little village girl a lesson!
