Chapter 843: Chapter 843 Tense

“But the situation is very urgent, and I had no choice but to come to the Second Miss,” the maid was very anxious.

“The Second Miss doesn’t handle affairs; looking for her is useless.”

Situ Qinger: “Wait a moment.”

Hearing this, Orchid stopped in her tracks and turned her head with an inquiring look towards Situ Qinger: “Second Miss?”

“Let her come over and speak clearly.” It was obvious that Situ Qinger had changed her mind.

Orchid said to the maid: “Did you hear that? The Second Miss asked you to come forward and speak!”

“Yes.” The maid was overjoyed and hurriedly stepped forward to Situ Qinger, kneeling down with a thump and said: “Second Miss, unless the situation was urgent, I would have never dared to disturb you.”

“What exactly is the matter? Can you clear it up all at once?”

“Second Miss, you don’t know, the Old Master and Miss have gone out early this morning, there is no one in charge at the General’s Mansion, and the Fourth Prince has arrived unexpectedly. I am afraid and anxious, and don’t know who else to turn to, left with no choice, I could only come to ask for instructions from the Second Miss.”

“What? What did you say?” Situ Qinger, who was sitting on the Noble Consort Chair, jumped up all at once.

This movement startled the maid terribly, and she immediately lowered her head, not daring to speak.

“Are you deaf? What was it that you were just talking about?” Situ Qinger was extremely anxious.

“Fourth…Fourth…The Fourth Prince has come to the mansion.”

Hearing this, Situ Qinger was overjoyed. She had been worried about not seeing the Fourth Prince for several days, unsure how to get close to him.

Now, here he was, delivered right to her doorstep.

“Where is he now?”

“The maid has invited him to the main hall, where he is having tea.”

“Excellent, you hurry back, attend to him well, I’ll be there right away.”

“As you command.” The maid sighed in relief, stood up, and retreated.

The Fourth Prince, with his high status, deigned to visit the General’s Mansion, and without a master to greet him, it was not proper. Now that the Second Miss was finally going to greet him, the servants could finally rest assured.

“Orchid, Cui Hua, come quickly and help me dress up, and pick out a beautiful dress for me.” Right after the maid who brought the news left, Situ Qinger couldn’t wait to call out.

Indeed, she wanted to take the opportunity of Xuexue being absent to spend some quality time with the Fourth Prince and perhaps enamor him completely.

“Yes, Second Miss.”

The maids began to busy themselves, some dressing her up, others picking out dresses for her.

“Second Miss, you haven’t worn this pleated skirt since you bought it, why not wear this one?” Mei Hua brought the skirt in front of Situ Qinger, who was getting dressed.

Situ Qinger glanced at it. This skirt was the latest fashion, costing several hundred taels of silver, and she had planned to wear it for a grand date with the nobility’s young ladies.

Now that the Fourth Prince was here, as the saying goes, ‘A woman dresses for the one who pleases her’, and it was indeed a perfect time to wear it.

“Good! I’ll wear this skirt.”

Orchid had skilful hands; in a moment, she had styled a very beautiful hairbun.

With beautiful makeup applied and the pink pleated skirt on.

A beauty, like a living poem and painting, appeared before them.

“Second Miss is truly beautiful,” the maids couldn’t help but exclaim.

Situ Qinger smiled proudly, knowing since childhood her good looks and after a careful makeover, she was even more enchantingly beautiful.

“Let’s go to the main hall, don’t keep the Fourth Prince waiting.”

Situ Qinger stood up, full of joy, taking a glance in the mirror, a stunning beauty appeared before her, she smiled proudly: “Let’s go.”
