Chapter 12: Chu Chen
On February 11, the spring day in the capital seemed to arrive overnight. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Early in the morning, Ruosu accompanied Mrs. Qiao to finish the Buddha ceremony, and then returned to the West Chamber, Mama Lin ordered her subordinates to make medicinal food for her as usual, and saw that her girl was becoming more and more ruddy day by day, and she couldn't help but feel joy.
At this time, Niyue walked in, she was a person next to the old lady, and she knew the rules very well, "Miss Biao, Mrs. Dafang sent you a post, today Xiangheju will hold an elegant gathering, and a few young ladies from the in-laws who are close to the capital will come." ā
Xiangheju is the courtyard where the big house is located, the structure of three rooms and seven frames, standing by the mountains and rivers, the scenery of the four seasons is pleasant, the Chu family will organize a banquet similar to the elegant gathering every spring and autumn, and the people invited are also the young ladies and sons of the meritorious family who live next to each other, or the younger generations of the in-laws' family.
Qiao Yan was waiting for Ruo Su to rinse her mouth, she handed Zhang Shujin's handkerchief and said, "Miss, the slave maid heard about this yesterday, why did the eldest lady notify our courtyard now?" This is too much to take the young lady seriously, and she is not afraid of the old lady's reprimand! ā
Qiaoyun pinched her and whispered, "Miss didn't say anything, what kind of mouth do you have." She put her finger to her lips, signaling to be careful that the wall had ears.
Ruo Su smiled lightly, and her tone was calm and unpretentious: "My father and my uncle had a quarrel and tore my face, and it was already good that my aunt could invite me to Xiangheju, and besides, my grandmother didn't like to be lively, so naturally she didn't ask about it." ā
Mama Lin sighed, if the young lady was still there, how could the little young lady fall into such a situation!
No matter what, the uncle of the Qiao family is also the maternal uncle of the young lady's in-laws!
Mama Lin said the words to her lips and swallowed again.
Ruo Su knew the thoughts of the people close to her, she drank the decoction and asked Qiaoyun to bring her a loose flower Ruyiyun cigarette skirt, the turquoise color was very suitable for her, and the bright color of her eyebrows was just right.
Since Chu handed over the post, she must be going.
Xiangheju is half a pillar of incense away from Mo Yaju, and Qiaoyun originally prepared a soft sedan chair for Ruosu, but was stopped by her: "My body needs to move around more." ā
In the previous life, she was just under the pressure of the sisters, she had to humble and beg, but she was not as weak as this life, the recipe that her father found really worked, but she still wanted to grow up as soon as possible and become strong as soon as possible.
In this way, we can live up to the virtue of regeneration given by God.
Walk into the Xianghe Residence, there is a maid to lead the way, different from the other courtyards of Qiao's Mansion, the Xianghe Residence is actually a Qiankun, the more you go inside, the more deep and tortuous, the elegance and luxury of the repair, she has never set foot here in her previous life, and the Chu family has never invited her to appreciate any elegant collection.
Until the pavilion in the back mountain, the sound of the woman laughing and talking could be faintly heard, and Ruosu suddenly stopped.
I saw a man walking on the winding bluestone path, Ruosu didn't know him, but felt weirdly familiar.
This is a kind of déjà vu, but unfathomable familiarity.
However, before she could figure out who was coming, the maids and maids beside her bowed down and said, "Chu Shizi." ā
It's him!
He is Chu Shizi! Chu Chen!
It stands to reason that her body and him should know each other, but she doesn't remember him at all now!
Just thinking about it, Chu Chen was already approaching, Ruosu noticed his face, he was wearing a moon-white silver silk dark pattern tuanhua robe, and his black hair was fixed with a hairpin of mutton fat jade, at first glance, it was as elegant as the breeze and the moon.
The handsome face carved like a knife and axe is close at hand, and this is a handsome and suffocating face.
Ruo Su was calm and calm on the surface, but this body didn't seem to obey her consciousness very much, and her heart seemed to be blocked by cotton, and she felt a certain heartache.
Her first instinct was that she had fortunately taken off the jade pendant around her waist.
The man in front of him seemed to be able to read minds, and his eyes as deep as the vast stars gradually moved from Ruosu's face to her waist, and then paused, just now he was obviously a little relieved, and his thick eyebrows frowned almost inaudibly.
Even this slight change, Ruo Su was aware of it, and he seemed to be a little disappointed.
"Chu Shizi." Ruosu smiled faintly and said hello.
Chu Chen stood with his hands in his hands, just looked down at her, and only hooked his lips for a while, and his tone was friendly: "Susu, is your wind cold better?" This voice is also so familiar, low and rich, like a flute in the middle of the night, distant and mysterious.
She and he really knew each other!
Ruosu gasped, and there was still a smile on his face: "Thank you Chu Shizi, I'm fine." ā
As for why he knew about his cold, Ruo Su didn't dare to think about it, Qiao's Mansion was the most crowded, and Yaji was divided into male and female seats, so she had better get rid of Chu Chen as soon as possible, otherwise she would get into unnecessary trouble before she gained a firm foothold in Qiao's house.
Chu Chen was tall, and Ruosu, who was still petite and immature, could only barely reach his chest, she looked up at him, and her neck was a little tired.
Ruo Su really wanted to cross Chu Chen and go up the small hill, but the path leading to Xiaoqingshan was really narrow and pitiful, and there was dew on the orchids on both sides, so she didn't know how to advance or retreat for a while.
Chu Chen hooked his lips again, and the handsome face that charmed all beings was gentle: "Do you like Yaji?" "I forgot to ask her what kind of flowers she liked.
Ruo Su was deeply 'afraid' of this familiar stranger, the fingers hidden in his sleeves were clenched tightly, and his pale face smiled and said: "The prince must be a person who likes to enjoy flowers, and this flower appreciation is better as soon as possible, and the flowers and leaves that are moistened by dew are not so beautiful." ā
This is a clear 'eviction order', if Su thought that after hearing this, Chu Chen would definitely give her a way, after all, it is not a big problem for a man to walk on the cold dew, not to mention such a well-rounded adult man.
Chu Chen smiled again, looking at her little face that pretended to insist, and there was a little kindness between her eyebrows.
At the same time, the maid of Xiangheju raised her head in surprise, the young master never talked to the female dependents, even if it was his own young lady, he rarely had the opportunity to meet Chu Shizi, this young lady actually knew the prince?
Chu Chen's gaze finally moved away from Ruosu, he didn't say a word, his handsome face suddenly regained his gloom and depth, his footsteps moved out, and he stepped onto another path and walked towards the depths of the bamboo forest.
Leaving a breeze on your face, with a faint smell of ambergris.
Ruo Su realized it later, she was good at hiding her expression and emotions, and she kept calm and calm, but in her heart, she felt that Chu Chen would still appear in front of her, in an unexpected way.
This uncertainty, and emotions beyond her control, made her very unhappy.
The crowd was bustling, looking at the past from a distance, dozens of lightly dressed women were chatting and laughing among the flowers, or covering their lips with handkerchiefs, each with its own posture.
Most of these flowers are moved out of the greenhouse, they look very delicate, but they can't withstand the cold, if it weren't for today's warm sun, there should be a mother-in-law to sweep the residual flowers.
There are very few young ladies who know Ruosu, and a few cousins treat her with ignorance, but she is quiet, one person appreciates the flowers, and the other is happy.
