Chapter 140 She Fell for It

go after a married woman I believe his upbringing prevents him from doing such things, and he wouldn't deliberately mistreat me just because he has feelings for someone else.Ning Dong was stunned.Qin...Meng Jin Yao held the teacup, took a sip, and nonchalantly countered, "What do you mean"

Upon hearing this, Jingning County Princess felt she was deliberately pretending not to understand what she was saying. She glared at her and said: "Just a short while ago, we were talking at the previous tavern."

Meng Jinyao revealed a look of sudden understanding, once again raising a smile, and said leisurely: "If I were to say it was true, the Princess might not believe me. If I were to say it was false, it would go against my conscience, and my conscience would hurt."

Jingning County Princess was choked by this, she really is thick-skinned, roundaboutly saying that everything she said was true.

A moment later, Jingning County Princess asked again, "After the incident at the theater, was it really your younger sister who wanted to push you off the stage She accidentally fell herself but you saved her. And then she accused you in front of me"

"Then what Does the Princess think I'm playing with her"

Jingning County Princess's face suddenly turned gloomy, and she gritted her teeth in anger: "So, she lied to this county princess"

"If this concubine wanted to do something to her, would she have saved her I only saved her because I didn't want to be framed. As long as she doesn't roll down the stairs, there's no way to truly pin the blame on me."

Princess Jingning's face grew increasingly grim, but a sliver of hope remained in her heart, believing she hadn't been deceived. However, the sincerity in Meng Jinyao's eyes shattered that last bit of hope. She had truly been misled by Meng Jin'yu.

She couldn't figure it out: "This young mistress and I were good friends, what benefit did she have from deceiving me"

Meng Jiny Yao looked up at her. The girl was so angry that her teeth were clenched, her emotions clearly visible on her face. She was so naive that she opened her lips and said, "I heard that the county princess likes to fight for others, and seeing someone pitiful would definitely treat them with extra kindness."

Jingning County Princess choked up: "... "

She's just jealous of others being treated well and bullied by others. Who knows who she might be used as a pawn by

Meng Jinyao said again, "It's a good thing that the county princess hates evil like revenge, but if you can't distinguish between right and wrong, you will only do bad things with good intentions."

Princess Jingning's face darkened. "Are you lecturing me"

Meng Jinyao pursed her lips and smiled faintly: "This servant doesn't dare"

Princess Jingning let out a light snort, no longer replying. She was furious and deeply humiliated by being deceived. Who would have thought that the new friend she had made, someone she could actually talk to, would turn out to be using her It made her feel incredibly foolish.

Seeing this, Meng Jinyao didn't care about her.

Soon, the dishes were served one after another.

The princess, born in the tranquil county, had always been accustomed to exquisite delicacies since childhood. She was quite discerning with her palate and usually didn't eat much. Even the most delicious dishes would only be savored for a few bites. Yet, watching her eat with such relish suddenly sparked my appetite.

They finished their lunch, but there was still plenty of food left.

The two maidservants of Princess Jingning and the two maidservants of Meng Jinyao hadn't eaten yet. After they finished their meal, they got up from the table and sat aside. Several maidservants then came to the table to continue eating, after all, as maidservants, they couldn't eat at the same level as their mistress.

Although they were all leftovers, the maids served their masters with public chopsticks. There was no situation where a maid would eat her master's saliva.

Although twelve dishes are enough for six people, the more expensive the dish, the less the serving size. Meng Jin Yao ordered the most expensive one. These twelve dishes were all relatively small portions, but they were exquisite and delicious, with high-quality ingredients. After the four maids had finished eating, there was not much left of the remaining dishes, so it wasn't a waste.

Having eaten their fill, the group left the restaurant.

Meng Jinyao smiled and said, "Thank you so much for your hospitality today, Princess."

Jingning County Princess glared at Meng Jinyao with displeasure. Was that what she called generosity She had spent over a hundred taels of silver for just one meal. Luckily, she was rich enough to afford it, otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to treat her guests.

Being that she had just enjoyed a lavish meal, Meng Jin Yao was in a good mood. She spoke softly, "Where will the County Princess be going next Would you like me to accompany you If not, then I shall take my leave."

Upon hearing this, Princess Jingning sized her up from head to toe. Her attire today was bright and elegant, so she nodded slightly: "You seem to have good taste. Come with this princess to choose some jewelry."

Meng Jin Yao readily agreed, anyway she had nothing else to do, so she might as well find some fun for herself.

Jinyugong, the largest jewelry shop in the capital city.

Meng Jin Yao's eye for detail is indeed good, she has picked out several pieces of jewelry for Princess Jingning.

Quiet Ning County Lord was pleased: "Mrs. Gu, your vision is much better than your sister's. She picked out things for me that I didn't really like.

Meng Jinyao smiled softly: "If the county princess likes it, this servant will take a look at other things."

Before long, Meng Jinyang set her sights on a white jade headdress inlaid with red coral. The jade was of excellent quality, translucent and pearly white, while the coral was a deep red with not the slightest flaw. Its quality was exceptional, and she quite liked it. She was just about to ask the shopkeeper for the price when she heard the voice of Princess Jingning.

Jing Ning County Master said: "This headdress is very suitable for Mrs. Gu, if Mrs. Gu likes it, she can buy it.

Meng Jinyao turned to look at her, smiling and asking, "Is the noble lady giving this to me"

Princess Jingning was dumbfounded: “”

Seeing that she did not reply, Meng Jin Yao again said: "Then this servant will take her leave from the County Princess."

Jingning County Lord was instantly dumbfounded. When had she said she would give it to her She had seen shameless people before, but never someone this shameless. In the future, if there were foreign enemies invading, she would have to recommend Meng Jin Yao to the emperor father, letting Meng Jin Yao use her face to defend against the enemy.

She gritted her teeth and said in a low voice, "When did this noblewoman ever say she would give it to you This set of headwear is so expensive, you really dare to think!"

Meng Jin yao blinked innocently and understandingly, saying, "Did the princess not bring enough silver when she went out today Then forget it. This servant thought the princess wasn't short of money."

This remark stimulated Princess Jingning. She looked at the shopkeeper and said in a loud, imposing voice: "Shopkeeper, since Madam Gu has taken a liking to this set of headwear records, the princess will have it put on her account."

As soon as she finished speaking, Meng Jin Yao’s laughter rang out: “Thank you, County Princess.”

A smile played on her lips, her eyes curved into a playful crescent, holding a glint of mischief, like a sly fox.

Jingning County Princess only realized she had been tricked after the fact. She had fallen for their schemes and tactics, becoming so furious that her eyes widened instantly. She glared at them with displeasure and gritted her teeth, saying: "You two sisters are both liars!"

Meng Jinyao looked innocent: "Your Highness, are you mistaken When has this servant ever deceived Your Highness"

Jingning County Princess let out a cold snort, ordering the maid to settle the bill and incidentally to settle Meng Jin Yao's account as well. Then she huffily prepared to leave Jinyu Pavilion, but after taking a few steps, realized she had gone in the wrong direction. She turned around and walked towards the main entrance.

Seeing this, Meng Jin Yao realized she had gone too far. She had actually made the young lady so angry that she was flustered and lost. Meng Jin Yao originally thought this Jing Ning County Princess was a little silly and cute, wanting to tease her a bit, but she didn't expect to be held accountable for it. She hurriedly followed after her.

Upon exiting the Jinyu Pavilion, she softly said, "My Lady, please don't be angry. If you injure your health because of anger, it would truly be my fault."

Jingning County Lord's footsteps came to a halt, she turned her head and glanced at her with an icy stare, letting out a cold snort. She said in a sullen tone: "Alright, you don't have to keep calling yourself a concubine in front of this county lord. This much humility doesn't seem like your true nature. After all, today you spent over a thousand taels of silver from this county lord, and never has any woman dared to cheat this county lord out of her money.inued, "The children are all grown up now, they can handle their own affairs.
