Chapter 13: Astonishing Everyone

tanding here. Don't worry too much about elder sister, our parents love her so much. Once their anger subsides, they will forgive her. It's just that today's events are very strange..."Her words sudde...The next day 。"Miss, Madam has instructed that as you are now of marriageable age, you can start wearing a young woman's hairstyle. The servant will definitely style your hair into the most fashionable and beautiful updo at the moment, paired with the lotus skirt prepared by Miss for you. At the banquet, you will surely be the most dazzling..." 。Early in the morning, Qing Luo began to busy herself dressing up Xiao Yu Ge. 。Xiao Yu Ge lightly smiled and said: "At every annual banquet, the most dazzling person is my elder sister. As for me, I am just a foil." 。"Miss is very beautiful, but in Qing Luo's eyes, Miss is the most beautiful. 。"Qīng Luò spoke very seriously and with a proud look on his face." 。Xiao Yu Ge just smiled, thought for a moment, and said: "By the way, Qing Luo, later go get last year's Empress Dowager's pink dress that she awarded me at the Flower Appreciation Festival and change into it for me, alright" 。"Miss, aren't you wearing the lotus skirt prepared for you by Miss You've always been reluctant to wear it, saying that you want to wait until the Lotus Banquet to wear it." 。"Then I'll try on both for you, and you'll understand why I chose the other one." 。Then, Xiao Yu Ge put on two dresses separately and asked Qing Luo to make a choice. 。Qing Luo looked after and frowned: "Miss, I also think the pink-white skirt suits you better. Although the lotus flower skirt is beautiful, it always feels like something is missing when you wear it." 。"Xiao Yuge smiled without saying a word. Xiao Yufu chose this dress for her, a splash of red among the green foliage. Wasn't it chosen to highlight her Ironically, in her past life, she was so happy about it." 。"By the way, Miss, this jade pendant you're wearing is quite unique. I see you wear it all the time. Was it given to you by your master and mistress" Qing Luo asked as she helped the young lady tidy her dress. 。Xiao Yu Ge subconsciously touched the jade pendant, some fragmented images flashed in her mind. She shook her head: “No, I just remember that winter when I was eight years old, after the prince saved me back, I woke up holding this, feeling it was very important, but I just couldn't remember where it came from...”That year when she was eight, Qian Si Chen carried her back after she fell into the water and froze. She was in a coma for seven days and seven nights before waking up, but she lost many memories from before the age of eight. It was also from that time on that she slowly started to like Qian Si Chen, always feeling that he saved her, so she should repay him. 。"Miss, could it be His Highness the Crown Prince"Xiao Yuge shook her head and immediately denied, "No, I asked him." 。It's a shame, I always can't remember what happened back then. 。"Miss, please don't worry. The doctor said that this is because you were in the icy water for too long, causing prolonged hypothermia which led to memory loss. Perhaps you will gradually remember things later. It's just strange, you have always been good at swimming since you were little. Even if you fell into the water, you should have been able to get to shore quickly, so how could you have stayed in the water for so long""It doesn't matter, anyway, childhood memories aren't that special. It's fine even if I don't remember them." 。"Xiao Yu Ge tucked the jade pendant back into her clothes. She didn't care about the past; she only cared about the future." 。When Xiao Yuge arrived in the front hall dressed up, Xiao Yufu, who was already beautifully adorned, was happily chatting with Mrs. Xiao. They truly were mother and daughter. Even though Xiao Yufu had made a mistake and her temper had flared, once she calmed down, Mrs. Xiao still loved her dearly. 。"Mother!" she walked towards them. 。As soon as they looked up and saw Xiao Yuge, the expressions on their faces changed. 。"A song Is this really our song Dressed like this, you look just like a fairy. Mother barely recognizes you!" 。Mrs. Xiao was both surprised and delighted, she stood up and looked Xiao Yuge up and down. 。

For Xiao Yu Ge usually behaves like a man, being unrestrained and never dressing in such a demure and ladylike manner. At first glance, Mrs. Xiao couldn't quite believe her own eyes.

"Mother, who would boast about their daughter like that" 。Xiao Yu sang softly, her voice tinged with shyness as she playfully scolded. 。When Xiao Yufu saw that Xiao Yuge didn't wear the lotus dress she had prepared, her facial expression was also intriguing. However, she quickly smiled and walked up to Xiao Yuge, affectionately pulling Xiao Yuge's hand and praising her enthusiastically: "Mother is right, our Ge'er is as beautiful as a fairy." 。"Compared to my older sister, I'm still far behind." 。Xiao Yu's song retracted her hand without a trace. 。"Mother is truly blessed, to have two such beautiful daughters." 。"Mrs. Xiao looked at them and smiled, her crow's feet stretching out." 。"Madam, the carriage is ready." 。At this time, Butler Fu entered. When he saw Xiao Yuge, he was also taken aback: "Second, Second Miss!" "Butler Fu, let's go..." 。"Xiao Yu's song playfully winked at him." 。"Yes, yes, yes!" Fu Bo nodded eagerly. How come Miss Second seemed a little different today 。"Go'er, after entering the palace, listen to your older sister more and don't cause trouble." 。Fe'er, Mama entrusts the song to you. Watch over her closely, and remember to return early so you don't miss the time for leaving the palace," Madam Xiao reminded again and again. 。"Mother, don't worry, I will definitely take good care of my younger sister." 。To outsiders, Xiao Yufu not only looks beautiful, but also so gentle, docile, and considerate. Most importantly, she is very filial and sensible. 。In contrast, Xiao Yuge, who grew up catching birds on the mountains and fishing in the river, even fighting with dogs, paled in comparison. She often exasperated her elderly parents at home to the point of anger, leaving onlookers lamenting that if Xiao Yu'er had been the legitimate daughter of the Xiao family, it would have been much better!As the carriages stopped at the palace gates, noblewomen from various families arrived around the same time, each dressed in vibrant and stunning attire. Whether it was their hairpins or dresses, they spared no expense in extravagance. It seemed less like an event to admire flowers and more like a competition of beauty and splendor. 。Miss Xiao never disappoints when she makes an appearance, always a feast for the eyes. 。As soon as Xiao Yufu alighted from the carriage, a strange and eerie voice came from beside her. 。"Princess Huimin!" Xiao Yufu nodded slightly, her soft voice always giving people the illusion that she would never get angry. 。Ning Hua, the brilliant and beautiful County Princess Hui Min, raised an eyebrow and glanced down at her with a disdainful sneer. She then looked around: "Why are you the only one here today Where's your little green leaf, Xiao Yu Ge Did the Empress only allow you, her adopted daughter, to attend this banquet That's really not showing the Empress any respect, is it" 。"Miss Hui Min, do you have eyesight problems" Xiao Yuge walked out gracefully from the side. 。"You!" Ninghua widened her beautiful eyes when she saw Xiao Yuge. After confirming it was indeed Xiao Yuge, she curled her lip and let out a cold snort: "Oh! Little Green Leaf, you've changed your look today" 。Xiao Yu Ge just curled her lips into a smile, too lazy to talk to her anymore. Ning Hua was Ning Feng's sister; with a brother like Ning Feng, how good could the younger sister be In her past life, this woman had made no small trouble for her. 。ly, so she didn't want to see anyone.Outside the closed door, Qian Si Chen's heart sank. He couldn't understand why the person who usually obeyed him so willingly had suddenly changed like a different...
