With this twist, no one dared to openly size up Little Jiajia anymore. This made Xiao Ruoshui heave a sigh of relief. โJiajia, I wonโt pine after Brother Chen anymore.โ
Little Jiajia looked at her suspiciously.
Xiao Ruoshui was not a shy person. She said bluntly, โYou chose me instead of Chang Le just now. Iโll also treat you as my best friend. We donโt steal things from each other. Donโt worry, I wonโt snatch it from you again.โ
Was she touched by her?
Little Jiajia grinned. โMy husband is mine to begin with. Itโs useless even if you want to snatch him away.โ
Xiao Ruoshuiโs eyebrow twitched.
โThat Chang Le doesnโt really want to be on good terms with me,โ Little Jiajia added.
โWhy wouldnโt she be? She took the initiative to talk to you and even invited you to sit with her. Isnโt that just another show of goodwill?โ
Little Jiajia blinked. โHave you ever heard of the saying that the enemy of an enemy is a friend?โ
Xiao Ruoshui was stunned for a moment before reacting. โYou mean that Chang Le doesnโt get along with Princess Linghui and wants to rope you in because she sees that you can suppress Linghui?โ
What else could it be? Which noble lady sitting here did not have any arrogance? These people would never be convinced by a foreign princess like her. How could they sincerely befriend her? Even if they were friendly, they had some motive.
This was the first time Xiao Ruoshui had seen the complexity of peopleโs hearts. She reminded her softly, โThen you have to stay away from Chang Le in the future. Donโt be used by her. Although the Eldest Princess isnโt in Changโan, I heard that His Majesty still respects his sister.โ
Naturally, she was more concerned about the Eldest Princessโs only daughter than the other daughters of the royal family. Otherwise, how could a Fourth Rank Princess like her have the courage to fight Linghui?
Little Jiajia rolled her eyes. โNot to that extent. Besides, do I look like someone who can be used by anyone?โ
โThatโs true. Youโre so smart, I didnโt even see her intentions.โ
Xiao Ruoshui was still nagging and did not realize that Little Jiajia was not in a good mood. She even seemed a little tired after thinking of something.
The women had to learn the eight elegant arts: zither, chess, books, paintings, poems, wine, flowers, and tea.
In the morning, the class taught them about books and paintings. However, to Little Jiajia, as long as it wasnโt the zither, everything else was the same. She slept through it.
This was hard on Xiao Ruoshui. Beside her was a bad student who was openly sleeping. From time to time, the teacher would glance in their direction, scaring her so much that she didnโt dare to move for the next two classes.
It was not easy for her to endure until school ended. Little Jiajia woke up.
โSince weโre in school, we should still study hard. We canโt let the instructor down,โ Xiao Ruoshui persuaded with a long face.
Even so, she was thinking of something different.
She was so envious. She wanted to sleep too.
Little Jiajia rubbed her eyes and nodded in agreement. โYouโre right, so you have to study hard and listen carefully. Good luck.โ
โThen youโฆโ
Little Jiajia joked, โI have a noble title to inherit. I dont have to learn these.โ Xiao Ruoshui was even more envious.
Huilan Court had a special kitchen to provide meals for the daughters of the various noble families. They also prepared a room for them to take an afternoon nap. Apart from the princess, who could return to her bedroom to rest, the others were allocated a room for two.
Little Jiajia was naturally with Xiao Ruoshui. The palace maids had originally wanted to give her a private room, but she didnโt want it. Xiao Ruoshui was extremely touched again.
In order to express her gratitude, she even specially told her what she had heard. โMingde Courtโs classes ends 15 minutes after ours. If you go and look for Brother Chen now, he should be done with class too. You can also eat with him.โ
Little Jiajia thought to herself, โGood lord, I only slept for a while. This girl already has her own sources of information, although this isnโt a secret.โ
She immediately abandoned her companion and found a palace maid to bring her to Mingde Court. As for the promise not to run around, she was going to look for her husband.
Just as Xiao Ruoshui had said, Little Jiajia arrived at the entrance of Mingde Court just as classes ended.
The eunuch probably knew her. Hearing her intentions, he led the way without a word.
โThe heir should have gone to the room at this time. Princess, please come this way.โ
Mingde Court was even larger than Huilan Court. After passing through a courtyard and around a rockery, they finally saw a row of neatly arranged buildings.
The young eunuch stopped in front of the last room. Just as he raised his hand, the door of the room opened.
It was Song Jingchen who opened the door.
Little Jiajiaโs eyes lit up. Just as she opened her mouth, she remembered that Song Jingchen didnโt want her to call him that, so she hurriedly corrected herself. โBrother Chen.โ
Song Jingchen clearly didnโt expect her to come. He was stunned for a moment.
โWhy are you here?โ freewebnove(l)
The eunuch leading the way left first.
โIโm here to eat with you.โ Little Jiajia craned her neck to look into the room. There was a bed and a desk. It was a simple arrangement. โWhy donโt you have anything here?โ
The room she was assigned to not only had a dressing table, a soft couch, and a small suite used as a study.
โItโs just an occasional break. Thatโs enough.โ Song Jingchen didnโt let her look. He turned around and closed the door. โLetโs go.โ โWhere are you going?โ Little Jiajia followed.
โYou havenโt eaten yet, have you?โ
โAh, yes. Have you eaten?โ
โNot yet.โ
โHehe, I knew it. Iโll come and have lunch with you every day in the future.โ
โWhat did you learn in the morning? The teacher taught us about books and paintings today. Itโs so boring. As soon as he opened his mouth, I felt sleepy. However, Sister Ruoshui is quite serious in her studies.โ
Little Jiajia had a lot to say. Regardless of Song Jingchenโs response, she rambled on alone until she entered a greenhouse. A voice interrupted her. โHey, Cousin, didnโt you say that you werenโt coming to eat with us today?โ
