The Fierce Farm Girl Has A Secret Space

Chapter 1811: Chapter 1811: Familiar (6)

”Please calm down, Your Highness.” Shen Jiayin was also getting frustrated and hurriedly stepped forward. ”Qingqing doesn’t have the courage to speak ill of you. She just found it odd since girls in Beijing usually learn some skills. So she was surprised to hear Madam Gu say you don’t know anything...”

Qi Zizi blinked and stopped crying. Instead, she turned to Yang Ruxin and asked, ”Sister Xin, is it true that you really can’t do anything?”

”How is that possible?” Yang Ruxin frowned. ”This is really too much of an insult!”

”You’re the one who said it yourself...”

”When did I say I couldn’t do anything?” Yang Ruxin frowned, looking at Zuo Qingqing. ”Your level of fabrication is really poor. At the very least, I know how to eat, walk, and sleep. How could I possibly know nothing?”

Pft! This time, Ju Wan actually burst out laughing, but she quickly bowed her head and covered her mouth with a handkerchief.

Zuo Qingqing’s face instantly twisted. ”You’re just playing with words, you...”

Yang Ruxin shrugged. ”Just speaking the truth. If you don’t believe it, ask around. Who among us can’t? Even those who can’t eat or dress are complete fools, yet they still blink and breathe.”

The corners of everyone’s mouths twitched. Although it felt like twisting words, when pondered upon, it seemed to make some sense.

”Madam Gu, we’re just here to have a pleasant time together today. No need to be so sharp.” Shen Jiayin smiled at Yang Ruxin, but her eyes glinted with icy light. ”You know that’s not what Qingqing meant.”

”Fine, for the sake of Chief of Staff’s miss, I won’t fuss about it.” Yang Ruxin waved dismissively.

Shen Jiayin wanted to say more, but at that moment, a servant ran in from outside to report to Jiang Fangfei, saying that Miss Cui from the Duke Residence has arrived.

Jiang Fangfei hurriedly asked the servant to invite her in.

Cui Fangfang could feel a gaze from afar on the ship. It wasn’t sharp, but it seemed to pierce through her soul.

So, ever since she boarded the ship, she had been tense. Now, as she was about to disembark, the pressure intensified to the point that she almost tripped, but fortunately, Xiaofu quickly reached out to catch her.

”Are you alright?” Xiaofu rearranged Cui Fangfang’s dress and softly inquired.

Cui Fangfang shook her head and, upon raising her head again, found the gaze at the window had disappeared. Only then did she breathe a sigh of relief and followed the servant that announced her into the Lake Heart Pavilion, ascending the stairs to the second floor.

Everyone’s eyes turned towards her.

Cui Fangfang instinctively swallowed and then nodded politely towards everyone. ”Greetings to the sisters.”

”You’re too polite, Miss Cui.” Jiang Fangfei stepped forward to hold her hand. ”We’ve all been waiting for you... You probably aren’t familiar with these people; let me introduce you...” she said as she began introducing everyone one by one.

Over the past year, Cui Fangfang had been well-educated by the Old Madam Cui, learning her manners well. Thus, her conduct appeared quite graceful.

”Lastly, let me introduce these few.” Jiang Fangfei led Cui Fangfang to Yang Ruxin. ”This is Madam Gu, whose maiden name is Yang Ruxin. We all call her Sister Xin, and you should too.”

”Sister... Sister Xin.” As Cui Fangfang met Yang Ruxin’s gaze, she shivered all over, and her hand hidden in the sleeve clenched tightly.

”Miss Cui.” Yang Ruxin nodded with a half-smile, seriously evaluating the other person. ”Why do you look so familiar?”
