王爺你好賤 15 – Engagement gathering (i)

The moment Zhu WuXin heard that there were hidden reasons, she immediately asked Xiao Lian to sit down and speak.
Xiao Lian wiped away the sweat on her forehead.

“Miss, I found out that tomorrow is the annual Marriage Matching Gathering [1]. Not only will the normal nobles will join, even the Crown prince and other princes will be at the scene.”

“It was said that a lot of Wang Fei [2] were selected from this gathering itself previously.”

“They were definitely trying to prevent you from joining it. You were a hundredfold better than them, appearance-wise. They were afraid that you will grab their limelight, that’s why they deliberately framed you.”

“Xiao Lian, you really know how to comfort people.”

Zhu WuXin closed her eyes, the things done all this while were just for one foolish gathering for marriage. Seriously? Seriously?

“Miss, I am not comforting you, all I said was the truth.”

“You are too thin, should you have eaten a bit more, you will definitely comparable……”

“Okay, okay. Don’t praise me. You won’t be able to tolerate it if I got cocky.”

Zhu Wuxin quickly interrupted the worshiping from Xiao Lian, “Xiao Lian, I’m a bit hungry. Go and help me get some food.”

Hearing Zhu WuXin’s request to eat, Xiao Lian suddenly looked awkward.

“What is it?”

“Miss, Master have ordered, that no one is allowed to send food to you.”

“Just now Aunt Liu wanted to send to you, but she was taken away by Big Miss. I thought of stealing some from the kitchen, but they just won’t let me in.”

“Eradicate to the maximum, kill to the extreme?” [3]

“Wah kao, even in My Fair Princess there are meals provided. Xiao Lian, is there no other way?”

“Yes. Miss, please wait.” Xiao Lian said while reaching into her bosom and retrieved a few pastries out.

“I have stolen these from the worship hall, you quickly eat it.”

Zhu WuXin received the pastries, the corner of her eyes a bit wet. Xiao Lian definitely have not received this kind of dammed treatment before when she was serving HongSan. As expected, if the master is not capable, the maidservants will suffer together. WuXin broke the pastry into half and gave it to Xiao Lian, “Come, we take one each.”

“Miss, you eat it. I’m not hungry.”

“Not hungry also must eat. Oh yeah, this marriage interview.. .I mean, marriage matching gathering, is there any good food to eat?”

“It should have.”

“Then it’s fine. You just eat this piece of pastry, we try to endure until tomorrow early morning, then we’ll go there to eat.”

“……..”

Sister WuXin, you are really *effing something.

People went to the marriage matching gathering for the purpose of getting engaged, only you who would actually went there for the food.
