Xue Shan wasn’t stupid and wouldn’t be easily fooled by such words. Listening to the other party’s words, she only found it funny.
Why hadn’t she noticed that Yu Jingjing was pretending so much before?
“I don’t want to talk to you now. This is all there is between you and me. If you pester me again, don’t blame me for being rude.”
Xue Shan snorted coldly and walked away, leaving Yu Jingjing stomping her feet in anger.
Before long, Princess Chang finally arrived late.
In the crowd, Princess Chang first saw Yu Jiaojiao and waved for her to come over.
“Prince Huai once helped this princess. Since you’ve come to this princess’s banquet today, just treat it as your own home. Don’t be polite, just have fun,” Princess Chang said gently, warmly holding Yu Jiaojiao’s hand.
Yu Jiaojiao felt a little uncomfortable, but still obediently responded.
After chatting for a while, Princess Chang turned her gaze to Yu Jingjing not far away.
She continued, “Is that your concubine sister? I seem to have seen her before.”
Seeing Yu Jiaojiao nod, Princess Chang waved her hand and called her over, but her attitude was much more distant.
However, she also noticed the gazes of the crowd looking at Yu Jingjing, with amusement and contempt.
What had happened?
Princess Chang didn’t ask much, but just said to herself, “You sisters have both married into the Wang mansion, you must take care of each other. Family harmony is more important than anything else.”
But she didn’t expect that as soon as she said this, the expressions on the faces of the crowd became even more lively.
Her doubts grew even stronger, but she didn’t say much, just inviting everyone to take a boat trip on the lake.
Each person had a small boat, with two or three people riding in one.
And Yu Jiaojiao and Yu Jingjing, as sisters, naturally had to be together. Yu Jiaojiao didn’t have any objections to this.
However, she also knew that the other party would definitely not let it go.
Sure enough, soon after getting on the boat, Yu Jiaojiao noticed the other party’s gaze falling on her from time to time, as if she was brewing some conspiracy.
After thinking about it, Yu Jiaojiao decided to personally give the other party this opportunity.
She looked up at the water, pretending to admire the scenery.
Then, before long, she saw Yu Jingjing rushing towards her through the reflection on the water, as if she wanted to push her into the water.
Yu Jiaojiao still maintained her original posture, until the other party approached, she dodged to the side.
The next moment, with a plop, Yu Jingjing fell into the water.
Yu Jiaojiao shouted loudly, “Sister, sister, what’s wrong with you? Why did you fall without standing firm?”
“Quick, quick, save me, save me,” Yu Jingjing in the water kept calling for help.
But she only saw Yu Jiaojiao crying and shouting pretentiously, but there was no movement from beginning to end, and her heart sank to the bottom.
Was the other party really going to watch her die?
The strength of her struggle became smaller and smaller, and she was about to sink.
Yu Jiaojiao also realized that the movement here had attracted the attention of others, and felt displeased, but still jumped down directly and rescued her.
She kept shouting, “Sister, sister, don’t scare me? Are you okay? It’s all my fault, I didn’t take good care of you, and I saved you too late.”
Before long, a circle of people surrounded them, and Princess Chang also walked over, asking quickly, “What’s going on?”
After all, it was the banquet she held, and it would be bad if someone died.
And at this moment, Yu Jingjing spat out a mouthful of water and finally opened her eyes and woke up.
And the first sentence was an accusation against Yu Jiaojiao, “You’re going too far, why did you want to harm me? I know my life is cheap, would you only be satisfied if I died?”
After saying this, she began to cry bitterly, looking very miserable.
She said haltingly, “I know it was wrong of me to say bad things about you just now, but you can’t want my life, right? You said you forgave me with sisterly affection on the surface, but in reality, you wanted to put me to death.”
“We are sisters, how can you treat me like this? I did something wrong, do you really want me to die to be satisfied?”
Everyone couldn’t help but look at Yu Jiaojiao, and Yu Jiaojiao spread her hands helplessly.
“If I wanted to harm you, I wouldn’t have saved you.”
Everyone noticed Yu Jiaojiao’s wet clothes and nodded.
If Yu Jiaojiao really wanted to harm Yu Jingjing, in that situation just now, she only needed to ignore her, and by the time the servants rushed over, the other party would probably have been drowned.
Moreover, there was no evidence, and no one could accuse her of anything, and it wouldn’t be Yu Jingjing’s turn to accuse her at this time.
Yu Jingjing’s face became ugly, she thought of Yu Jiaojiao’s expression of not saving her for a long time just now.
She said again, “You saved me just to maintain your reputation, wanting to get a good name for saving your own sister.”
Yu Jiaojiao laughed even more after hearing these words, “Do I need such a good name? As long as I spread the things you did just now, I already have a good name, do I need to risk my life to save you?”
Everyone thought it was the same, and Princess Chang’s eyes were filled with displeasure as she looked at Yu Jingjing.
Yu Jiaojiao bowed slightly to Princess Chang, saying apologetically, “Your Highness, it’s because I didn’t teach well, that someone disrupted your banquet, I will definitely teach my sister well when we get back.”
Princess Chang hummed in a muffled voice. She didn’t want to get angry at Yu Jiaojiao, but she was really angry that the banquet she had worked so hard to hold was disrupted like this.
Yu Jiaojiao still wanted to say something, but she saw everyone stop talking and look behind her.
Yu Jiaojiao also turned around and looked over, and saw Jiang Xingyan pushing his wheelchair slowly.
“This Wang came today to pick up the Wangfei to return to the mansion, but I heard that someone fell into the water, fortunately it wasn’t the Wangfei.” Jiang Xingyan arrived in front of Yu Jiaojiao, handed over the clothes in his hand, and a trace of annoyance flashed in his eyes.
If his body had no problems, he could put the clothes on her now, instead of like this.
Yu Jiaojiao didn’t think there was anything wrong, but thanked him and put on the clothes.
She smiled at Jiang Xingyan, “Thank you so much, Wangye, you’re so considerate, and you even had to trouble yourself to come and pick me up.”
“We are husband and wife, this is what this Wang should do,” Jiang Xingyan said lightly, then his gaze fell on Yu Jingjing, his eyes full of disgust.
“It’s fine if you cause trouble in the mansion many times, but now you’ve even caused trouble at Princess Chang’s mansion, publicly framing this Wang’s Wangfei, after returning, you will be confined for a month and copy the Buddhist scriptures a hundred times to pray for the Wangfei, if the Wangfei catches a cold because of you, this Wang will question you.”
Yu Jingjing looked up at Yu Jiaojiao, who had a smug look on her face, and hated her even more.
