Chapter 875: Chapter 875: Borrowing the Bracelet

"Fourth Prince, your servant lady has made a fool of herself," Situ Qinger’s face immediately turned a shade of red.

"It’s fine, Second Miss. Please speak out and see if this prince can offer assistance." The Fourth Prince had a favorable impression of Second Miss Situ, and moreover, from the amorous gaze of the beauty, he knew she was an admirer and thus felt obliged to help.

Situ Qinger fiddled nervously with her handkerchief, pretending shyness before shyly saying: "This servant lady has heard that my elder sister can go on the autumn outing, I envy her, so..."

The content that followed, even without saying, everyone guessed what she meant, right?

The Fourth Prince’s mouth curled into a smile, "Such a trivial matter. Second Miss, there’s no need to be nervous. If you want to go, just go."

"Really?" Situ Qinger revealed a look of surprise and incredulity as she looked at the Fourth Prince.

"Of course, I always keep my word, and it’s impossible to take it back, so Second Miss, just rest assured. Besides, the more the merrier for the autumn outing."

"Your servant lady thanks the Fourth Prince."

"Alright, take a seat too. Let’s not be so formal with all this thanking," he said, indicating the excessive courtesy was unnecessary.

"Eh!" Situ Qinger joyfully sat down next to the Fourth Prince’s seat, and with intentional or unintentional arrogance, she glanced at Xuexue, as if to show off, look, the Fourth Prince isn’t only good to you, he treats me quite well too.

Xuexue pretended not to see and continued to lower her head to drink tea.

Because it was getting late, the Fourth Prince exchanged some pleasantries and then stood up to take his leave, repeatedly reminding Xuexue that he would send a carriage to pick up the sisters for the outing on the day.

Except for the Old Madam, everyone escorted him to the gate of the General’s Mansion.

The sky outside darkened gradually.

Just as the Fourth Prince was about to enter his carriage, Xuexue turned and went back inside the mansion.

Seeing this, Situ Qinger lifted her skirt and chased after her, "Elder sister, wait a moment."

Xuexue turned back, giving her a cold glance, and asked, "Second sister, what is it?"

Even though, initially, Situ Qinger would not acknowledge Xuexue’s identity, but over this period of time, too much had happened for Situ Qinger.

Now, she had gradually come to accept that she was just the Second Miss of the General’s Mansion.

Of course, she still despised the concubine-born daughter’s identity and wished to cast it off at all times.

However, the root of everything lay with Lady Tang, and no matter how hard she racked her brain, nothing could be done.

Indeed, because Lady Tang was a concubine, they, sisters and brothers, had become low-status concubine-born sons and daughters. If Lady Tang’s status were to change, then naturally, their siblings’ statuses would change along with it.

So, the urgent matter at hand was to bring Lady Tang back to the General’s Mansion.

"Elder sister, what are you saying? Can’t sisters have a good chat if there’s nothing important?" Situ Qinger’s face was plastered with a forced smile.

"Speak if there’s a matter," Xuexue said coldly.

Xuexue was on guard against Situ Qinger’s change of attitude. From her past life experience with Situ Qinger, she knew she would never be good to someone without reason.

"I see elder sister has a nice bracelet on her wrist, anyway, could you lend it to your sister for the day of the autumn outing?" Situ Qinger’s eyes fixated on the bracelet on Xuexue’s wrist.

As expected, Xuexue sneered in her heart. In her past life, it was also around this time that she couldn’t resist Situ Qinger’s persistent pleading and gave her mother’s only remaining bracelet to her. This led to a major incident that completely soured her relationship with her biological father, Situ Yongjie.

"Second sister, sorry, this bracelet is left by my mother, I do not lend it to anyone."
