reconciliation
More than a month has passed, and April is low, when Chu Yiyao went to inquire about Mandarin Duck again, she was already a concubine in the courtyard of the Third Young Master of the Cao family, and her degree of favor was quite high, but there was more than Mandarin Duck in the courtyard of the Third Young Master Cao, there were countless beautiful concubines before and after, and some of them were not more glorious than Mandarin Ducks.
But he has a grandmother who loves him very much, and the pain is out of order, and these disgraceful things are common.
Chu Yiyao went out for as many days, but most of them were looking for Wang Jiting and them to drink alcohol, often coming back drunk, Chu Yiyao knew that this was all for a while, but a month later, it was still like that, and this transition period was inevitably too long!
The night was slightly cool, Chu Yiyao pushed the door into the second brother's house, and the smell of wine came to the sky, and the two maids inside were in a hurry to help him change his clothes, but Chu Duyuan just didn't cooperate, so he pushed them away, his cheeks were painted, and he leaned on the bed full of alcohol.
"Ah Chuan, go and call it!" Chu Yiyao instructed Bao Wei to call Ah Chuan over, and he instructed the two mothers-in-law who came in outside the door to set up the second brother.
Compared with the weak maid, the two mothers-in-law were not polite at all, and directly put Chu Duyuan up from the bed, and the strength of his hands directly made him unable to struggle.
"Chunxi, change the sheets, Chun Nuan, you go prepare water, peacock, take off your clothes for the second young master!" Chu Yiyao looked at his decadent face and said loudly.
Compared with Chu Duyuan's own maid, the peacock was not so gentle, according to the young lady's instructions, he took off the coat of the second young master in three or two clicks, and added the lining clothes, and only one underwear was left, and he finished it without blushing and heartbeat, waiting for Chun Nuan to bring hot water, and directly asked the mother-in-law to throw the person into the bathtub.
One cold and one hot, Chu Duyuan woke up halfway.
When Chu Yiyao arrived in the outer room, Ah Chuan knelt there tremblingly, not daring to look up at Chu Yiyao, Chu Yiyao sat down on a chair, "Who did the young master drink with today, why is there still a wound on his face." ”
"Young Master went to drink with Young Master Wang today." Ah Chuan said truthfully, "After the young master got drunk in the restaurant, he said something about the Mandarin Duck girl, so that the two young masters next door heard it, and said a few words, and the young master wanted to fight with them, but the young master didn't stand firmly, he fell to the ground and hit the corner of the chair." The more Agawa spoke, the quieter he became, and he felt that this was more embarrassing than a fight.
"Whose young master?" Chu Yiyao squinted slightly, he was really embarrassed to be injured.
"It's... It is the young master of the Jin family and the eldest young master of the Yan family. Ah Chuan glanced up at the young lady, and soon drooped down again, he knew that when the young master woke up, it should be him who suffered again.
"Yan Chengzhi." Chu Yiyao read these three words slowly, and then said, "It's the young master Jin who opened his mouth." ”
Ah Chuan nodded hurriedly, "Yes, yes, the Jin family is the cousin of the Cao family." With adoration in her eyes, Miss is really like a god, and she even knows who is saying it.
"What did they say?"
"That young master Jin said that he had seen the mandarin duck girl in Cao's mansion, and it was nothing more than that, relying on a beautiful woman, his cousin Cao had it, and there were still people who regarded her as a treasure." Ah Chuan was drenched in sweat as he spoke, but when he looked up, he saw the recognition on the young lady's face, and instantly had the courage to continue, and explained the conversation between Young Master Jin and Young Master Yan word for word, and by the way, he also gave the second young master's full reaction after listening to these words at that time.
"Ah Chuan, it's a pity that you don't tell the story." Half-loud, Chu Yiyao smiled and said, Ah Chuan looked at the smile on the young lady's face, and looked at it stupidly, but he couldn't take his eyes off it, until Bao Yi on the side reminded him that he hurriedly lowered his head.
The peacock in the room came out and said that the second young master was awake, Chu Yiyao went in, Chu Duyuan was still lying in the bathtub, but his eyes were much clearer, and he looked up at her, "Why are you here." ”
Chu Yiyao took the medicine from the peacock, sat next to the bathtub, opened the jar and dug a little and applied it to his face, Chu Duyuan subconsciously shrank a little, saw her glaring at herself, and approached to let her apply the medicine, a cool feeling came from her cheeks, overshadowing the pain and then she felt a little more comfortable, "What time is it?" ”
"It's time." Chu Yiyao put down the medicine jar, looked up at the wound that had lightened a little, and slowed down her voice, "Does it still hurt?" ”
Chu Duyuan covered his wound and shook his head, looking a little embarrassed to do this in front of his sister.
"Next time, remember to win and come back, how can the man of the Chu family be provoked by others in just a few words." Chu Yiyao got up and said lightly.
Chu Duyuan looked at her in surprise, Chu Yiyao's calm face suddenly bloomed with a smile, and motioned to the maid behind him to dress him, and he walked to the window and turned his back to him and said, "If you win, my sister-in-law and I will go to the Jin family to apologize to you, but it will definitely not be what you are now." ”
Chu Duyuan was shocked by her words in his heart, and let the maid change his clothes for him, Bao Wei sent a decoction and some porridge to understand wine, Chu Yiyao sat down with him, scooped up the porridge for him, and pushed it in front of him, "Eat some and drink hangover medicine." ”
"You don't blame me?" Chu Duyuan somehow blocked his heart at this moment, like a child who did something wrong, he clearly knew the consequences of this incident, how much temper his family would have, but the truth was completely beyond his expectations, no one was angry, no one blamed him for his words and deeds these days, but took care of him gently.
"What do you blame, blame my second brother for losing before he even fought with them? That's really to blame, Young Master Jin's body, second brother, you will still lose. Chu Yiyao raised her head and said a little playfully, and the second half of the sentence still carried some regrets, as if Chu Duyuan's loss was intolerable.
The originally calm atmosphere suddenly became much more relaxed because of her words, Chu Duyuan reached out and touched her hair, the corners of his mouth raised a touch of helplessness, he couldn't even say the words of apology, but it made him feel even more ashamed of them in his heart...
A few days ago between brothers and sisters, those mustards were dissolved in this way, Chu Yiyao watched the second brother bow his head and drink porridge, and finally there was a touch of comfort in his eyes, everyone is rebellious, not to mention the second brother who has not been very disciplined in the past, what the sister-in-law said is not wrong, in this way, it is easier to get closer.
Chu Yiyao didn't want to take this opportunity to talk to Chu Duyuan about the business house again, and after accompanying him to eat, Chu Duyuan sent her to the gate of the courtyard, and Chu Yiyao went back with Bao Wei and Peacock.
It was already late when she fell asleep, Chu Yiyao looked at the top of the bed, and when she heard the name of that person again, her heart still fluctuated, Yan Chengzhi left too many memories in her previous life, so that Chu Yiyao couldn't remember why she fell in love with him in the first place.
The beginning of this life has changed, there will be no emotional entanglement between them, and Yan Chengzhi is in Chu Yiyao's heart, and now he can't match the slightest qualification...
In the blink of an eye, the beginning of May, the originally lively Jinling is more prosperous at this time, to the annual river cruise season, the weather in early May is neither hot nor cold, along the crescent moon river flowing along Jinling, there are large and small boats everywhere, from this end to that end, there are more people under the luxury book, with their own merchant ships for the young masters and ladies of the family to play.
Originally, it was just a trip of Jinling people themselves, since the imperial concubine left Jinling five years ago, this crescent river and Xiangshan became famous together, and there were many guests from outside the city who came to play here.
The Chu family did not arrange a boat, Chu Yiyao accepted Qin Manqiu's invitation, and originally wanted to go alone, but the three 'distinguished guests' in the Treasure Pavilion were here, how could she leave it alone, so she wrote to Qin Manqiu again, and brought Chu Miaoluo and them, Xiao wanted to go, but this peace, she was half a year younger.
Compared with the many pleasure boats in the river, the Qin family is just very ordinary, worthy of carrying five or six people, when they set off from the shore, the Cao family's boat happened to pass by, and a melodious piano sound came, and Chu Yiyao only had time to catch a glimpse of the yarn shed on the deck, in which there were faintly a few women playing.
"That coquettishness." Qin Manqiu stood behind Chu Yiyao and scolded gently, Chu Yiyao turned around, and the latter quickly looked gentle and graceful, as if he had completely misheard what he said just now.
"It's worthy of the Cao family, such a big ship." With a hint of excitement on Chu Miaolan's face, she said to Chu Miaofei next to her, "Second sister, have you seen it, there are many people on the boat." ”
"What a fuss." Chu Miaofei said disdainfully, but the envy in her eyes couldn't be hidden, it was really a big deal.
"If you want to go, you can go ashore halfway." When Qin Manqiu heard their words, he pursed his lips and chuckled, "My family's cruise ship is a little smaller, and it's only my own family, so it's definitely more boring than that." ”
Fortunately, Chu Miaofei and the others still knew the severity, and they were envious in their hearts, saying that they didn't need to, if they really went, what was the difference between them and the group of performers on the Cao family's boat.
"Sister Manqiu, where is your Qianqiu diagram?" Chu Yiyao liked the feeling of few people, glanced at the Cao family's boat, no need to guess who was on it, Sister Manqiu was not wrong at all, in Jinling, who else besides him was so coquettish, maybe this boat was all his concubines, and he didn't see the young master of any family, the wife was undecided, and the concubines were going to break through the backyard.
"Don't mention this to me!" Qin Manqiu had just said half a sentence, hurriedly slowed down his tone again, adjusted his expression, and said slowly, "Yiyao, you are really bad-hearted, you know that I am most annoyed by this, and you still mention it to me." ”
Chu Yiyao almost didn't laugh out loud, "If you are annoying, you won't embroider?" ”
Qin Manqiu let out a long sigh, his tone was complaining, "I didn't call you to come with me if I knew it, and I used this matter to toss me." After a pause, he added, "Forget it, if you don't say that this thing is here, it's almost embroidered, I'm afraid I won't be able to make a difference." ”
"Other people's families are trying so hard to have a relationship with their superiors, why did they come to you, but they were in a hurry to hide?" Chu Yiyao was amused by her expression, the relationship between the concubines and concubines of the White Prince's Mansion at this level of the Qin family didn't know how many people were envious, but this person had a bitter face.
"She likes to please how she wants, she can't finish embroidering by herself, and she pushes it home to do something." Qin Manqiu was full of resentment, and when Chu Yiyao mentioned it, he directly forgot how to pretend to be a lady and say something.
