Su Yingxue felt genuinely happy for her, and she asked Zhilan to bring the clothes that Chu Chengye had sent.
“This is the riding attire that Seventh Prince sent me this morning. My current attire is decent, so I’ll give this set to you.” Su Yingxue smiled with her eyes forming crescents.
Lin Sisi glanced briefly at the clothes and looked disdainful. “Sent by Seventh Prince? Dr. Su, do you have a feud with Seventh Prince?”
Su Yingxue held back a laugh in her heart, but she had to ask, “Why do you say that?”
“The fabric is luxurious, but it’s not durable at all!” Lin Sisi never controlled her volume when speaking, and the people around turned their heads to look at her.
Of course, this included Chu Chengye, who had been waiting, and Chu Xiuwen, who was accompanying him.
Chu Jinling, the gossip-loving soul, squeezed through the crowd and shouted from a distance, “Miss Lin, those are golden silk garments. Father only rewarded my seventh brother with two!”
Lin Sisi turned to look at him and snorted. “So what if they’re valuable? Today, we came to Upper Forest Court to ride horses, shoot arrows, and hunt in the woods. These clothes will be torn soon after passing through the forest, let alone in dangerous situations. I’m afraid they won’t even make it a full circle on the ground before they’re ruined!”
Chu Jinling burst into laughter. “Miss Lin, you’re right!”
Su Yingxue also thought it made sense.
Of course, she already knew about this, but she let Lin Sisi voice it.
She glanced at the clothes. “Is it still useful? If not, we’ll just have to discard it!”
“It’s not entirely useless. Dr. Su, I have a red-maned spirited horse, a pony without a saddle. Why not dress it up? Light, breathable, I bet it will like it!” Lin Sisi was straightforward and said whatever came to her mind.
Su Yingxue waved her hand. “Alright, give it to your horse!”
“Thankyou, Dr. Su!”
Lin Sisi happily draped the clothes over her pony and asked Su Yingxue if it looked good. Su Yingxue confirmed that it looked extremely good.
As they enjoyed themselves, Chu Jinling laughed so hard that he almost fell off his horse.
“Haha, Seventh Brother’s golden silk garments are now wrapped around a horse! Seventh Brother, aren’t you feeling heartbroken!”
Chu Jinling acted as if he couldn’t see Chu Chengye’s expression.
Chu Chengye ignored him and rode his horse into Upper Forest Court in frustration.
What a waste of waiting!
Chu Xiuwen also left with a sullen face. As he passed by Chu Jinling, he couldn’t resist a mocking remark, “Ninth Brother, don’t laugh yourself out of breath!”
“No worries, no worries. Third Brother, why don’t you go and appease Seventh Brother? Hahaha!”
Chu Jinling, never one to back down, left Chu Xiuwen with no way to argue.
After Su Yingxue and Lin Sisi finished adorning the horses, Lin Sisi removed the clothes.
“Even my horse doesn’t find this attire worthy. Dr. Su, this is even less fitting for you!” She declared boldly.
Su Yingxue was flattered, but she was even happier for her. “With you no longer wielding a whip, you exude even more confidence than before. You truly radiate.”
“All thanks to you, Dr. Su! My father said that if you bloom, the gentle breeze will naturally come. There’s no need to bow and scrape to please others. We Lin family members can’t do that kind of fawning. Just being ourselves is enough!”
Su Yingxue admired Lin Sisi’s candid personality. They walked side by side, and Su Yingxue smiled, “Don’t worry, you will have a bright future!”
She remembered that in her previous life, Lin Sisi had married into an ill-fated family and passed away after a few years..
