Chapter 231 Indifference (3)
"I've always wanted to visit my sister, but I didn't find a suitable opportunity. If I have time today, I didn't invite myself."
Xiao Hua smiled, but didn't know what to say.
The relationship between the two is not good. Although it can't be said to be completely hostile, it can't be said that there is no grudge at all. I didn't expect Concubine Qiao to come today with such a face and such a familiar tone.
"There's been a lot of snow these days, and I've been thinking that it won't snow, but I haven't been able to find such a day." Concubine Qiao picked up the teacup on the side, swiped the tea foam, and took a sip.
Xiaohua's eyes flickered, and she said with a smile: "Yes, it's cold and snowy, if it's not for going to the princess's place every day to pay her respects, the servants and concubines would not want to go out."
"The weather here in Jingzhou is like this. The winter days are long, and the winter is cold and snowy. Although it is winter and spring comes, the spring here is always later than other places."
Xiao Hua saw that Concubine Qiao's tone was gentle and seemed to have good intentions, so she continued to chat with her about the weather in Jingzhou.
After talking for a while, the room became quiet again.
Concubine Qiao smiled kindly, as if she hadn't seen any embarrassing situation, and said: "There are not many people in the backyard of Prince Jing's Mansion, and there is no entertainment, and I don't have anyone to talk to on weekdays. We hit it off as soon as we chatted, and we will come to chat with my sister when I have free time in the future, but don't refuse."
"Look at what the side concubine sister said, it's too late for the concubine to welcome you."
Concubine Qiao stood up, and Die Er put on a cloak for her.
"I've been bothering you for so long, so I'll take my leave first. My sister doesn't need to see her off. It's cold outside."
Having said that, Xiao Hua stood up and respectfully sent Concubine Qiao out of the door, and signaled Ding Lan to send her out of the courtyard.
After Ding Lan sent her away, she returned to the West Room and said, "This Concubine Qiao took the wrong medicine today, right?"
"You can say this in front of us, and you should be more cautious outside on weekdays." Ding Xiang has always been strict with himself and others, and he is not relaxed at all outside and inside.
"Of course this servant knows, ma'am, what do you think side concubine Qiao is doing here?"
At this time, Xiao Hua had already slanted onto the kang again.
These days Lilac mobilized all the staff below to do needlework. In the past, the bare kang was not only covered with thick mattresses embroidered with autumn-colored peonies, but also added a few pairs of light pillows embroidered with peonies in pink and silver thread. Now Xiaohua likes to lie on the kang more and more, sinking into the soft pillow, which is soft and comfortable.
"What else can you do here? On the surface, you want to win over and become an ally, but in fact, you have other intentions."
Concubine Jing didn't deal with Concubine Qiao, so she didn't need any alliance, that is, there was another mystery. What is this mystery, she can guess it with her toes.
