How could the maidservant answer? She could only guess from Xiaoxiao’s clothes. “Perhaps she’s the maidservant who accompanied him to serve him. I see that she’s even carrying a basket?”
He Ruhuan reluctantly accepted this answer, but she still felt uncomfortable. “Why have 1 never seen her before?”
County Magistrate Shen didn’t like private friendships between dignitaries, so Shen Tianci only invited his peers to the garden for his birthday and didn’t invite the elders of various families.
As soon as she entered, Xiaoxiao was attracted by a huge wisteria tree in the garden. May was the season when the wisteria bloomed. The green vines meandered and blocked the slightly dazzling sunlight, leaving only fine silhouettes that scattered on the young men and women through the leaves.
The blooming wisteria bent its branches heavily, letting down countless light purple waterfalls. When the wind blew, it immediately swayed and looked flirtatious.
Further away, there were peonies and roses blooming. It was obvious that this garden had been carefully cared for. All kinds of flowers contrasted with each other, and the garden was filled with spring colors.
Young people did not have the patience to admire flowers. The May breeze even gave them the convenience of releasing paper kites. Shen Tianci specially went to Fortune Village to pick up Xiaoxiao and the others and wasted a lot of time. At this moment, many birds, beasts, and floral butterflies of various shapes were already flying in the clean blue sky.
When the kite was a little further away, it looked just like a small dot. Xiaoxiao used her hand as a blackout curtain to cover her eyes and felt her neck ache after looking at it for a while.
Not far away, Shen Tianci waved excitedly and called them over to open the gift together. However, when he removed the layers of protection and looked at the cute rabbit kite inside, Shen Tianci’s round face fell. He suddenly did not have the courage to put it in the sky.
He shouldn’t have looked forward to Ning Xiaoxiao’s preferences. Girls definitely liked things like rabbits and flowers, but he was a dignified man. How could he fly a rabbit kite while everyone else was commanding lions, tigers, and eagles? Then he wouldn’t be the prey of others. No, no, it wouldn’t be impressive!
Xiaoxiao could clearly see Shen Tianci’s resentful expression. She could only pretend not to know and look away.
Aiya, I forgot that Little Big Brother Ah Yan is a little cutie deep down.
Looking up at the joy that filled the sky, Shen Tianci fell into deep sorrow. At this moment, He Ruhuan, who was wearing a light yellow dress, came over gracefully. She said shyly, “Cousin, my butterfly paper kite can’t fly. Can you help me?”
Shen Tianci thought to himself, You can’t fly yours, and 1 don’t even dare to fly mine. Who’s more unlucky?
He sighed. “Didn’t you bring your servants?” Cousin He’s paper kite was even more feminine than a rabbit. He didn’t even want to fly a rabbit, let alone a butterfly.
He Ruhuan’s face turned pale. She wanted to find an opportunity to get close to her cousin!
“My servant went to the carriage to get the gift for you. He’s not here now…”
After seeing the rabbit Xiaoxiao gave him, Shen Tianci did not have any expectations for Cousin He’s taste. He waved his hand when he heard that. “Then go find my servants to help.”
The two setbacks made He Ruhuan feel awkward and embarrassed, but her childhood teachings taught her that she should not show her emotions. Hence, she maintained a proper smile and raised her chin at Xiaoxiao. “Then please lend me your maidservant, Cousin.”
The girl was unruly. Who allowed her to stand so close to her master? It was obvious that she had ill intentions. Her cousin had a good personality, but she was not so easy to talk to. Since she had bumped into him, she naturally had to teach this servant a lesson on behalf of her cousin.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she finished speaking, the smile on Shen Tianci’s face disappeared.. “He Ruhuan, apologize!”
