FSC [QT] Chapter 106.4

When she saw Ling Zhuo, Jin Ruyi had already guessed Ah Wu’s identity, but now she still had to pretend to be ignorant.

“I thought Sister Jin was so smart that she should have guessed the identity of my Seventh Sister. After all, she appeared with me and was a stranger. After thinking about it, there was only one identity.”

Ling Zhuo said to Jin Ruyi without leaving any face. What she was most impatient to see was the pretentious look of this woman, as if she was innocent and harmless. In fact, among all the people present, she was the most cunning.

“I did think about it before, but isn’t the Seventh Sister your twin sister, Ah Zhuo? She doesn’t look like you at all, so I didn’t dare to recognize her for a while.”

As expected of mother and daughter, Jin Ruyi and Mrs. Chengyi had the same reaction.

“This is the first time I meet the Seventh Young Lady. Bichuan, go get that basket of passion flower fruit and let the young ladies taste it.”

Originally, Jin Ruyi wanted to win over Ah Wu to deal with Ling Zhuo, but Ah Wu’s outfit today accidentally made her look ugly.

Rather than winning her over, Jin Ruyi wanted to see Ah Wu lose face. In this way, it would also hit Ling Zhuo, and the final result would be the same.

Passion flower fruit?

Except for Jin Ruyi, the other young ladies present all had puzzled expressions. They had never heard of a fruit with this name. It sounded like a fruit specializing in the Xifan country.

Xifan is far away from the capital, so it is not an easy task to transport the special fruits of Xifan to the capital.

The fact that the Marquis of Chengyi Mansion was able to obtain the fruits of Xifan country showed that its strength was far beyond what everyone saw on the surface.

This was exactly the effect that Jin Ruyi wanted.

If she hadn’t wanted to show off today, she wouldn’t have kept the fruits until today after the First Prince sent them.

Soon, several fist-sized, oval-shaped, and wrinkled fruits were brought over by the maid. There were not many fruits, and each of the young ladies present was given one, and there were not many left.

“Seventh Sister, have you ever eaten this fruit?” Jin Ruyi asked gently.

The young ladies present all wanted to save face, and even if they had never eaten it, they could not show it.

Even when Ah Wu said that she couldn’t eat it, they had to show a hidden smile, indicating that they were completely different from Ah Wu, a girl who had returned to her roots halfway and had no knowledge.

“What kind of fruit is this? I really haven’t seen it before.”

Ling Zhuo saw Jin Ruyi’s sinister intentions. She had never seen these fruits, let alone Ah Wu who had lived in the countryside since childhood.

So, she spoke directly.

She was a girl who had been raised in the Marquis’s Mansion for eleven years. She didn’t even know the fruits. Who could laugh at Ling Wu for being ignorant?

“Which sisters have tasted this fruit? Can you show me how to eat it?”

Ling Zhuo smiled and looked at everyone except Jin Ruyi. She didn’t believe that these people had tasted the passion fruit.

“Excuse me, do you have a knife?” Ah Wu spoke up.

It was amazing that when she saw the fruit, its name automatically appeared in her mind again, and she subconsciously knew how to eat it.

But strangely, in Ah Wu’s subconscious mind, this fruit was not called passion flower fruit, but a fruit called passion fruit.

It could be eaten directly or soaked in water. It tasted sweet and sour, which made people salivate subconsciously.

The knife was prepared by Jin Ruyi’s maid a long time ago, but she didn’t hand it yet. It was because Ah Wu spoke too suddenly that the maid subconsciously handed the knife to Ah Wu.

She neatly split the fruit in two, revealing the pulp inside.

“What a pity. The fruit has been stored for too long and has a rotten taste.”

Passion fruit was durable in storage, but it had gone through a long process from Xifan country. Originally, the best time to eat the fruit was when it was first delivered to Jin Ruyi. Although the surface was wrinkled, it still did not affect its taste.

Jin Ruyi took a bite and liked the taste of the fruit very much, so she thought of taking it to show off on this day.

But she didn’t know that the passion fruit had begun to rot these days. Although its appearance was not much different from before, its taste had changed dramatically.

“So, this kind of fruit should be eaten like this.”

“What’s inside? Is it pulp? Or juice? You have to use a spoon to eat it, right?”

With Ling Zhuo and Ling Wu making a good start, the young ladies no longer hid their thoughts. They looked at the fruit in their hands with eager expressions and did not pretend that they knew a lot.
