Chapter 599 Fighting side by side!
After Zhang Zhirou came back, she sat next to a few people very obediently.
Under the shade of the trees in the yard, the servant of the Zhang family who took care of the old lady brought out several desserts.
Shu He also took out the bread he made.
It was already afternoon, and it was time for the old lady to take a nap, so she said goodbye to the Eleventh Princess and Shu He.
Although she also wanted to hear gossip, she was old after all, and young people would always feel uncomfortable when she was around.
Zhang Zhirou looked at the two people who had suddenly visited her, feeling both sad and relieved.
"Sister, Princess Eleven, thank you for coming to see me..."
When Shu He saw her like this, he knew that things between her and Jiang Dongping were not going well.
"I thought you had already discussed it clearly."
Zhang Zhirou remained silent, lowered her head, and tears welled up in her eyes.
Shu He sighed softly, "Since Jiang Dongping is not sincere, then forget it. There are so many good men in this world, we can just look for another one!"
Baili Rushu was immediately anxious when she heard this. "No, Seventh Sister-in-law, the matter is not clear yet. Why are you saying such a thing?"
"Arou, please tell me clearly, what exactly did you two discuss? Didn't he say that he would only marry you?"
"Why, you still don't want to do this?"
Shu He and Zhang Zhirou both looked at Baili Rushu at the same time. Xiaolian stood behind them, looking very upset, and quickly tugged at Princess Eleven's clothes.
The princess's mouth speaks faster than her brain, and she can easily let anything slip!
"How do you know he said that?" Zhang Zhirou asked her puzzledly.
He said this when he promised her yesterday, and she hasn't had time to tell anyone yet!
How did the Eleventh Princess know?
Baili Rushu was stunned for a moment, and then a look of panic appeared on her face.
Shu He stared at her, and felt more and more that there was something going on between her and Jiang Dongping.
Zhang Zhirou also stared at her, "Princess Eleven, do you know something?"
Baili Rushu couldn't stand the fiery gazes of the two men and had to confess.
"Okay, okay, I'm telling you, don't look at me like that!"
Shu He and Zhang Zhirou saw that there was indeed something wrong, and they came over to stare at her.
Baili Rushu felt as if thorns were stabbing her back, and she felt extremely uncomfortable. "Oh, just when I came here, I saw him standing outside. He looked so pitiful, so I pulled him aside to talk to him."
"Arou, I asked for you. He really likes you. He even promised me that he would only marry one woman in his life, and that woman is you!!"
Zhang Zhirou's pretty face flushed red. Although this was not the first time she had heard this sentence, it was both awkward and embarrassing to hear it coming from her best friend.
There should be a hint of sweetness in the embarrassment.
Shu He also noticed Zhang Zhirou's secret joy and immediately asked, "In that case, Ah Rou, what are you still worried about?"
In this world and in this environment, it is rare for someone to make such a commitment!
After hearing this, all the joy on Zhang Zhirou's face disappeared, and was replaced by a look of melancholy.
"Sister He, have you seen Wu Xiuxin? She's so good. I, I don't have much confidence..."
Wu Xiuxin is very beautiful and has a good temperament. She has a pair of bright eyes, is calm and confident, and gives people an unmatched sense of inferiority.
"Moreover, the Princess of Western Chu likes Wu Xiuxin very much. Apart from Wu Xiuxin, she will not accept any other woman at all!"
"That's his mother! Even if he can insist on not liking Wu Xiuxin, can he resist his mother for long?"
Besides, she didn't want a marriage that was not blessed by her parents.
Zhang Zhirou smiled bitterly, "If you knew from the beginning that there would be no result, why would you continue to let yourself get deeper and deeper into trouble?"
Baili Rushu got anxious when she heard this. She was about to give up!
How could that be possible? She still had an agreement with Jiang Dongping!
"Arou, don't you want to try hard and fight for Jiang Dongping?"
These words made Zhang Zhirou look stunned, and a trace of struggle appeared in her eyes.
"Arou, look, he's fighting against his family and parents for you, just to be with you. Doesn't this really demonstrate his sincerity?"
"What about you? Are you going to give up on him so easily?"
Shu He also felt that what the Eleventh Princess said made sense. No matter what the outcome was, as long as Jiang Dongping insisted on not backing down, Zhang Zhirou should stay by his side and advance and retreat with him.
As for the outcome, we will do our best and leave the rest to fate!
The wavering expression on Zhang Zhirou's face grew more and more intense, and the light in her eyes began to wander.
Baili Rushu continued, "And that Wu Xiuxin, you say she's good? What's so good about her? I tell you, in my eyes, in Jiang Dongping's eyes, you're a thousand times better than her!"
"Why do you feel so inferior?"
"Arou, remember, you are a heroine who defends your country! How can she, an ignorant woman from the inner chamber, compare to you?!"
"Dong dong dong..."
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. Several people turned around, their expressions frozen.
Especially Baili Rushu, I don’t know what words can fully describe the expression on her face.
Outside the door stood a quiet and beautiful woman. She wore a veil hat and a light yellow strapless gauze dress with purple and gold bauhinia flowers embroidered on her chest. The patterns were delicate and the embroidery was unique. It was obvious that it was made by a celebrity.
The light yellow and purple-green shawl overlapped her white satin shirt. When the breeze blew, her flowing dress fluttered, making her look as light and ethereal as a fairy.
She lifted her veil, revealing a delicate and beautiful face.
"I'm sorry for disturbing you by coming here. Please forgive me, Miss Zhang!"
The soft voice is as sweet as a lark.
"Wu, Wu Xiuxin?!"
Baili Rushu was so shocked that her eyes almost popped out of her head.
How come she is here?
Could it be that she heard everything she just said?
……
When Wu Xiuxin saw that the Eleventh Princess recognized her, she walked in and bowed to Shu He and Baili Rushu.
"Commoner Wu Xiuxin pays homage to the Eleventh Princess, the wife of Prince Li."
Shu He looked at the newcomer, a look of vigilance on his face. "Why is Miss Wu here?"
Although she has not seen any malice or wrongdoing in Wu Xiuxin yet, because of Zhang Zhirou, she will subconsciously be wary of this woman.
"Don't overthink it, everyone. Xiuxin is here because she is following her aunt's orders to invite Miss Zhang into the mansion for a chat."
Baili Rushu was so shocked that she stood up.
"The Princess of Western Chu wants to see Arou?!"
