Ambitious Favored Consort: How To Become A Wangfei

Chapter 12: Grateful

Tang Shishi raised her eyebrows slightly when she saw the visitor, "Feng Qian?"

"Sister Tang." Feng Qian was wearing plain clothes, and her chin was almost paler than her clothes. Feng Qian stood at the door, covered her mouth lightly, and coughed a few times, then raised her head and smiled at Tang Shishi, "It's not a coincidence that I'm here. Is it convenient for Sister Tang?"

After the initial unexpected phase passed, Tang Shishi quickly resumed her senses. She smiled and said to Feng Qian, "Convenient. I heard that you were sick recently and it's windy outside. Come on in."

Feng Qian thanked her and walked into the house gently. Tang Shishi led Feng Qian to sit on the arhat bed and motioned the maid to serve tea, "It's simple and plain here. Please forgive for any negligence."

Feng Qian's eyes swept all around. Tang Shishi's residence could not be considered big, but the three main rooms were bright and spacious with interior screens, tables, and chairs, shelves for antique. It has everything that one could wish for. It was not extravagance, but it was warm enough.

Compared with Liuyun courtyard, which was packed with nine people, the difference was incomparable like one in the sky and the other was underground.

Feng Qian covered the corners of her lips with her handkerchief, and smiled lightly, "Sister Tang, what are you talking about? You are still rudimentary here, then what about us? Wangye is so kind to Sister Tang."

Tang Shishi moved her eyebrows and said, "What are you talking about? We are all here to serve in the Prince's mansion. Wangye made allowance for me out of respect to Feng Momo, but I can't really get carried away. I'm the same as everyone else."

"Sister Tang is right. It was just a slip of my tongue." Feng Qian said with a smile, "It's still Sister Tang who has a broad view."

Feng Qian seemed to be in poor health, and she got sick from time to time even when they were on the road. Now that she had arrived at Jing Wang's mansion, her condition was not getting any better. Even though she was smiling, she has a sickly countenance.

Tang Shishi saw Feng Qian's appearance and asked, "I live far away, and some news is inconvenient. I heard that you have a cold these past few days. Are you better now?"

Feng Qian bowed her head and sighed with despair, "It's still the same as before. I'm just getting through the days despite my body condition like this."

Tang Shishi smiled, and said, "You are still young, so you can't say these depressing words. It's just a cold and you'll be fine in a few days."

"Thank you, Sister Tang." Feng Qian looked at Tang Shishi gratefully. She holds Tang Shishi's hand and sadly said, "Among the ten people in the same group, I admire Sister Tang the most. Sister Tang can do well no matter what she does. Unlike me, who has been suffering from many illnesses and misfortunes since I was born. I have no energy to do anything, physically weak, and don't have any ambition. I feel very good if I can live my life peacefully like this."

Why does she say these words? Tang Shishi did not answer rashly, merely comforting her, "You are still young, don't be disheartened."

Feng Qian shook her head slowly, with a lonely expression, "I know my body well, what my strengths are, and what life I can lead. I'm clumsy, sick, and weak, and my disposition is not likable. I'm someone who can never get ahead. I don't expect to stand out and I am very satisfied if I can live my life peacefully. I sometimes feel that Ji Xinxian likes to make noise unnecessarily, and sometimes I envy her for her vitality. Probably only a healthy person like her, who has been spoiled since childhood, dare to make an uproar."
