491. Chapter 491 Hello, How Vicious

Xie Yuan hadn't asked yet.

Xie Xian asked first, "Sixth brother, you…"

His words hadn't been finished.

Xie Yang said with a smiling expression, "Miss Yin Li is truly beautiful, I will pursue her."

Hearing him say that.

Xie Yin leaned close, lowered his voice and asked, "Sixth, you have taken a liking to Yin Li; does she like you?"

Xie Yang whispered back to her.

"She thinks I talk too much, but it's fine; I won't give up."

Her nephew indeed talks a lot; could it be that his palace duties have made him like this?

Xie Yin was thinking.

Xie Xian spoke, "Aunt, it's getting late, let's head back first."

"Alright!"

Xie Yin didn't see them off; someone else escorted them out.

They had just left.

Xie Yin then strode into the living room.

At that moment.

Yin Li happened to walk out from inside, and seeing Xie Yin, she said apologetically, "Aunt Xie, I'm sorry, I…"

Seeing her like that.

Xie Yin said softly, "Silly child, why say such foolish words? You didn't like them because they aren't outstanding enough; it's not your fault."

On the way back to their courtyard, Xie Yin kept thinking about who else would be suitable for Yin Li.

Thinking over and over.

She couldn't think of a suitable person, so she simply stopped thinking.

Didn't our little Sixth say he wanted to pursue Yin Li?

Then let him try.

What if it works?

What Xie Yin thought of Yin Li, Yin Li didn't know; after parting from Xie Yin, she went to the courtyard where Qiao Sheng lived to find Qiao Sheng.

Because Qiao Sheng had previously let her finish the viewing, she came over this time.

At that moment, Qiao Sheng was sitting by the fire in the courtyard with Shi Lin, and noticed Yin Li arriving.

They called out to her, "Ah Li, you're here, come sit down quickly."

Yin Li smiled and sat down to the right of Qiao Sheng.

As soon as she sat down,

Qiao Sheng gossiped, "Ah Li, how was the viewing? Are they really as good‑looking as Mother said, and is their martial skill decent?"

Shi Lin's eyes went black in an instant.

Yin Li didn't notice; she moved a bit closer and told Qiao Sheng truthfully.

"They are indeed quite good‑looking; I don't know about their martial skill, I haven't sparred with them, but from the sound of their footsteps and gait, their martial skill should be decent."

"They may be good, but they are not suitable for me."

Yin Li chattered on at length.

Shi Lin said beside her, "That's just how they are; if you don't like them, forget it. After all, there are plenty of fine young men in the Imperial Capital, take your time choosing."

The next day.

Qiao Sheng thought that since Yin Li came to the Imperial Capital with few clothes, they would take her to Cheng Xianglan's place for custom‑made garments.

The carriage stopped.

Qiao Sheng and Yin Li got off the carriage; after a few steps they saw many people gathered outside Cheng Xianglan's shop.

"Seng sister, what's happening?"

Yin Li asked curiously.

Qiao Sheng shook their head, "I don't know either."

They stepped forward into the crowd, and An Yi and An Er hurried to keep up.

Before they entered,

From the crowd came an irate old woman's voice: "Cheng Xianglan, Jin Yu is of our Liang family; you changed his surname to yours and didn't mention it, and made him not recognize us; you are so vicious."

A slightly younger woman then said, "Our third brother is truly pitiful; not only did you kill him, but now the family line is broken…"

Her words drew several people to agree, men and women alike.

"Exactly."

Cheng Xianglan, angry, felt her heart surge: "Stop spouting nonsense here; it's not at all as you claim."

Qiao Sheng watched the onlookers pointing and chatting about Cheng Xianglan, and couldn't help feeling speechless.

She pulled Yin Li forward, pushing ahead.

An Yi and the others observed the surroundings while pushing forward with them. (End of chapter)
