To Be A Virtuous Wife

45

After watching two plays, it was already past one and Jin An Princess invited everyone to a meal. She let the guniang who hadn't come of age to gather and freely chat. She and the noble ladies and official's wives that married chatted about the interesting things in Jing.

Qu Qing Ju heard these people once again mention the Spiritual Master Xuan Ling on the Five Estates Monastery. It looked like this Spiritual Master Xuan Ling had some skill. Regardless of whether there were ghosts and gods in this world, but the fact that a person could be recommended by so many women used to living in a complicated environment, it showed his abilities were exceptional. As to in which direction they laid, that depended on the person.

When Jin An Princess heard this, she was unexpectedly calm. She smiled calmly: "If he is an extraordinary person, there definitely will be a change to meet him in the future." She did say that, but Qu Qing Ju could see that she didn't even care about such a thing.

Qu Qing Ju held Mu Jin's hand as she stood to change clothes. On her way back, she met Qu Yue Su accompanied by her yahuan. She stopped in her steps and calmly watched as Qu Yue Su gave her a full and respectful greeting.

"Greetings to Duan Wang Fei," Qui Yue Su was now very clear, the da jie in front of her didn't want to interact with Chang De Gong Fu at all. She could even see on da jie's body the coldness she held towards Chang De Gong Fu. She had heard many of the rumors on the outside. She wanted to argue but found all the rumors were true. And some events that occurred were even worse than the rumors. She didn't have the courage to use the appellation of da jie.

The reputation of the fu was worse and worse. It had affected her and er jie's marriage prospects. She wasn't content with becoming the furen of a normal official. But none of the di sons of the noble families wanted to marry her. So she wanted to try her best using her talents and beauty. It was better than mediocrely finishing her life.

"San xiaojie, please rise," Mu Jin saw her wang fei stand still and came up a step to give insubstantial support. She once again moved behind Qu Qing Ju.

Qu Qing Ju looked at the color of the sky: "Why are you alone here. I just saw the guniang of the Tao and Lu Families chatting together, why don't you go play with them?"

Qu Yue Su's face was somewhat ugly. She forced a smile and answered: "Just wanted to take a walk."

Nodding, Qu Qing Ju didn't speak more, "I'll go first, you be careful."

"Farewell wang fei." Qu Yue Su bowed again. She looked at Qu Qing Ju surrounded by quite a few yahuan as they ushered her towards Jin An Princess. She bit the corner of her lip to push down the soreness in her heart. By now, those noble girls weren't willing to interact with her. They thought they were so high up, not willing to interact with her as someone willing to become a qie. Really, they were normal people as well. In the future, they also had to pour their heart to try to hold their husband's heart and still manage the favoured ce shi. By that time, they would all be that common eye of the fish.

This kind of thoughts might just be Qu Yue Su comforting herself but by now she could only think like so to keep that strange sense of jealousy she had towards Qu Qing Ju. She shouldn't fantasize, that if the person decreed would have been her, the person respected and flattered would be her.

Wei Qing E and the others saw Qu Qing Ju return and teased: "You finally came back, we just mentioned you."

"Mentioned me?" Qu Qing Ju sat back on her original seat, picking up an already skinned tangerine to put into her mouth.

"Said you have good fortune. All the ce shi in the fu are so obedient and doesn't have too many tricks." Wei Qing E smiled, "Not like our fu, there's many beauties."
