The banquet lasted less than a quarter of an hour, and Chu Shaoyuan arrived in the flower hall where the ladies were resting.

At this time, the female dependents were almost scattered, leaving only the Xia family and the Zhu family chatting in the flower hall from time to time.

Chu Shaoyuan raised his eyes and saw Chan Yi sitting next to Mrs. Xia, who originally had a solemn look on her face, but the moment he saw her, the solemnity disappeared, and a gentle smile appeared on his face, after a busy day, he could see the person he liked at first glance when he returned to the inner house, as if the tiredness of his body had been relieved, and there was only a strong joy in his heart.

At this time, Chanyi also saw him, her beautiful eyebrows raised slightly, a smile was added to her beautiful cheeks, and she gently bowed her head at him, and the concern flashing in her eyes warmed his heart.

Zhu Yu glanced at the door casually, and saw the young man who made her fall in love, and subconsciously exclaimed, "Lord Wang......"

Only then did the other people in the room notice Chu Shaoyuan coming in, and they all stood up and saluted Chu Shaoyuan.

Chu Shaoyuan strode forward and held Mrs. Xia and Mrs. Zhu up, "It's almost free, they are not outsiders, so there is no need to do these false courtesies." ”

As he spoke, he helped Mrs. Xia to sit on the chair in the hall, and then turned his head to Mrs. Zhu and said: "There have been a lot of affairs in the past few days, and some places in the garden have not had time to be cleaned up. ”

Mrs. Zhu was originally not a person who liked to argue reasonably, she stayed more to say a few more words with him, and to clarify his attitude, at this time, she naturally got off the donkey and said: "You are still young and a man, how can you know these filthy things in the back house, if the old woman I say, there is no female family in the inner house to take care of it, it is easy to make trouble." ”

Speaking of female dependents, there is only one Xia Chanyi who is qualified to take care of the inner house of Prince An's mansion, but she is only thirteen this year, and she can't quench her thirst far away, and this matter is an excellent opportunity for the Zhu family.

Mrs. Zhu glanced at her granddaughter quietly, and her granddaughter will be married in a few days, just the same age as Prince An, at this time, it is best to ask the Queen Mother for a favor and make a decree to be a flat wife.

Chu Shaoyuan listened to what Old Lady Zhu said, he really didn't like it in his heart, his brows furrowed slightly, but he suddenly thought of something in the next moment, his eyes lit up, and the corners of his mouth smiled: "What the old lady said is extremely true." ”

When Mrs. Zhu saw that he should talk to herself, she just thought that he also meant this, and the smile on her face was even kinder, "It's nothing to my wife today, but Sister Ji was frightened, and she cried before, she has never seen such a thing when she grows so big." ”

Zhu Jin's face turned red, and he hurriedly said, "Grandmother, I was just startled, and I didn't... Don't ...... you"

"Let Cousin Zhu be wronged," Chu Shaoyuan interrupted her, smiled politely at her, and commanded Zhang Defu loudly: "Go and take out the hundred-year-old ginseng in the library, and the jade Buddha carved from jade, please come out together," and then Wen Sheng said to Zhu Jin, "These should be regarded as me shocking Cousin Zhu, and I hope Cousin Zhu will not be surprised." ”

Zhu Ji listened to his cousin Zhu, and her heart felt like someone had poured a bucket of ice water from her head, which made her feel cold.

At the Xie family's birthday banquet before, he also called himself Cousin Jin, but after not seeing him for a few months, he retired from Cousin Ji to Cousin Zhu.

But after thinking about it, does it mean that he still has a heart for himself when he uses such a precious thing to apologize to her, otherwise he will send it away casually, how can he be so attentive.

She raised her eyes, glanced at his face, and saw that the young man was smiling, and a pair of amber eyes seemed to have a puddle of secluded spring in his mouth, flashing and moving, her heart couldn't help but come alive again, lowered her eyes, and said, "Cousin is polite, I... I'm fine......"

Chu Shaoyuan smiled more gently, and his tone was very soft: "It's good that you don't frighten Cousin Zhu." ”

Zhang Defu moved quickly, and immediately took the things over, Chu Shaoyuan personally handed them into Zhu Jin's hands, and said softly: "This jade Buddha was opened by a senior monk of Guang'an Temple, and it was put in the house to be offered, so as to bless Cousin Zhu from being harmed by evil spirits." ”

Zhu Xuan's face was red as if she was about to drip blood, but she didn't dare to look up at Chu Shaoyuan, she stretched out her hand to take the Jade Buddha, and she was about to shrink back shyly, where did she expect that the Jade Buddha really had some weight, she didn't hold it steady for a while, and the moment the Jade Buddha got it, she fell directly to the ground.

With a "bang", the Jade Buddha fell apart on the spot.

Time froze for a moment, and then Chu Shaoyuan asked in a cold voice, "Is the cousin of the Zhu family dissatisfied with the jade Buddha I sent?" If you don't want to talk to me directly, will I force you to do it? ”

Zhu Yu was stunned for a moment, and he looked at Chu Shaoyuan in a daze as if he was frightened and aggrieved.

Chu Shaoyuan's face sank, and his whole body exuded a cold aura like the cold winter of the wax moon, which made Zhu Ji shiver with fright.

Chan Yi covered the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief, she could see clearly that Chu Shaoyuan had obviously used some strength in his hands, otherwise Zhu Ying would not have taken it lightly.

Poor Zhu Yu didn't know Chu Shaoyuan's character, everyone knew in the previous life that the gentler Prince An smiled at people, the more miserable that person's fate would be.

"I... I'm not ......" Zhu Yu's big deer eyes were full of grievances, tears flashed in his eyes, and he sobbed quietly.

Mrs. Zhu hugged Zhu Jin, stroked her back, and said with pity: "Poor Sister Ji must have been frightened by what happened to Fang Cai, so she was restless, not afraid, not afraid, grandmother is here, good grandson is not afraid." ”

This is a direct reminder to Chu Shaoyuan, if Chu Shaoyuan didn't take care of his own house, how could there be such a thing, he would not be reasonable at all.

Mrs. Xia looked at the old witch of the Zhu family, she was very unhappy in her heart, but she could see the situation in front of her, and she had to be a peacemaker, so she had to say loudly: "Broken peace, broken peace, don't go to your heart." ”

Although Chu Shaoyuan's face was cold, he finally gave Old Madam Xia a face, and instructed Zhang Defu to go to the treasury to get another smaller Jade Guanyin ornament.

Zhu Yu also learned to be obedient, and let the maids around him come over with Guanyin, and did not dare to have any contact with Chu Shaoyuan again.

Chu Shaoyuan took the tea and said, "Since Cousin Zhu is frightened, then I won't keep you more." ”

Serving tea to send guests, his words were to the Zhu family to expel the guests.

Originally, she was not happy, but being troubled like this, Zhu Jin's heart became even more uncomfortable, and she didn't dare to look up at Chu Shaoyuan, but instead glanced at Chan Yi who was sitting quietly next to her, and saw that Chan Yi was staring at Chu Shaoyuan, and a trace of resentment flashed in her eyes.

Mrs. Zhu held back her anger and said goodbye to Mrs. Xia.
