Chapter 144: Confrontation (2)

Looking at it from a distance before, I already felt that Xu Jinyu was very beautiful. Looking closely, the indifference and gentleness between the eyebrows are even more heartbreaking.

Ye Ling was Fang Mu Shaoai's age, standing in front of Xu Jinyu, her heart was pounding, and she mustered up the courage to talk: "Miss Xu is coming to the Ye family for the first time!" ”

Xu Jinyu smiled politely: "Yes, when I went to the Ye family today, I saw so many famous chrysanthemums, it was really worth the trip." ”

Ye Ling said with a smile: "Qiuyun has liked chrysanthemums since she was a child, and this flower room was also designed by her own to be built."

"What are you talking about?" A hand fell down without warning.

Ye Ling gasped in pain, and glared at Chen Yuanqing with bared teeth: "Cousin Yuanqing, I don't have a deep grudge against you!" "Is it so heavy to pat on the shoulder?

Chen Yuanqing raised his eyebrows, and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, I was careless just now, and my strength was a little bigger." You're not a delicate girl, so you won't scream if you shoot a little heavier! ”

The Ye family and the Chen family are in-laws, and Ye Ling and Chen Yuanqing can also be regarded as playmates who grew up together, and their relationship has always been good. Therefore, Chen Yuanqing's attitude was a little rude and his speech was a little harsh, and Ye Ling didn't take it to heart, and said with a smile while rubbing his shoulders: "You have so much strength, it's a pity not to practice martial arts." ”

Chen Yuanqing shot back with a smile: "What you think is beautiful." In a few days, we will have to take the exam together, and then we will see who can pass the exam. ”

Chen Yuanqing stirred up the situation like this, and Ye Ling was embarrassed to stare at Xu Jinyu.

There is a difference between men and women, and it is the first time they have met. It's not always good to be too eager

Xu Jinyu didn't pay attention to Chen Yuanqing's little thoughts. Out of the corner of her eye, she caught a slender and beautiful figure, and her heart moved quietly. Smiled and walked over: "May I ask Miss Cao?" ”

Cao Ying turned around, and a gentle smile appeared on her delicate and fair face: "Exactly." You're Miss Xu! ”

Although the two had not spoken before, their first impression of each other was excellent.

Xu Jinyu pursed her lips and smiled: "Yes, Miss Cao's memory is really good." I was only introduced once just now, and I remembered me. ”

Cao Ying smiled and responded, "Isn't Miss Xu the same?" After a pause, he said: "There are many guests today, Miss Xu is outstanding and gorgeous, I should remember you." But Miss Xu, remember that I am such an ordinary and inconspicuous person, and I really have a heart. ”

When he speaks, he is not hurried, and his voice is soft and pleasant. The attitude is also very good. There is no deliberate closeness, and it is not unfamiliar.

This is the real show!

Xu Jinyu suddenly had a good impression of Cao Ying, and said with a smile: "My brother Xu Zheng often goes to Cao's mansion to ask Lord Cao for advice, Lord Cao is knowledgeable and broad-minded, and he does not hesitate to give advice, and the eldest brother has benefited a lot. As soon as I heard that Lord Cao's beloved daughter was here today, I paid more attention to it. ”

Cao Ying was a little surprised: "It turns out that you are Xu Gongzi's sister." ”

Xu Jinyu asked curiously, "Could it be that Miss Cao has seen my eldest brother?" "Xu Zheng has been to Cao's house many times, but he is always to see Lord Cao, and he should not have had a chance to enter the inner house.

Cao Ying smiled a little shyly: "About a month ago." I went to my father's study and happened to meet Xu Gongzi once. Xu Gongzi was very polite, so he apologized for retiring at that time and avoided outside the study. ”

Xu Zhengsheng's handsome and outstanding demeanor is outstanding. Unforgettable at first sight. The move at that time was even more impressive.

No wonder when she first saw Xu Jinyu, she faintly felt a little familiar. This pair of siblings. The appearance is really similar, but they have their own style.

Xu Jinyu listened to Cao Ying's description. I couldn't help but laugh dumbly: "Oh? Did the eldest brother really avoid it immediately? When he came back, he never mentioned it to me. ”

Cao Ying smiled slightly: "A little thing." Xu Gongzi probably forgot about it a long time ago. Soon the exam will start, first wish Xu Gongzi Qiuqiu High School. ”

"Thank you Miss Cao, I also look forward to my eldest brother being able to pass the exam this time. At that time, Master Cao will be the eldest brother's teacher. Xu Jinyu said with a smile.

According to the practice of the imperial examination at this time, the candidates in the autumn high school examination this year were the chief examiner Cao Daren. With this relationship, Xu Zheng can naturally climb the big tree of Lord Cao in the future.

The two originally strange girls naturally gossiped.

Cao Ying was born in a scholarly family, read poetry and books since childhood, and was good at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but he was not at all clear and arrogant, nor was he reserved with his eyes above the top, and his temperament was very kind and easy-going.

"I'm very bored, I don't like to go out on weekdays, I just like to practice calligraphy and paint." Cao Ying asked with a smile. "What do you like to do on weekdays?"

Xu Jinyu replied with a smile: "Look at the book and practice the piano occasionally, but my favorite is to be a female celebrity." ”

Most of the famous ladies like elegant things like piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and it is really rare to like female celebrities.

Cao Ying was a little surprised, and looked at Xu Jinyu carefully: "Could it be that the butterfly opera and hundred flowers on this Luo skirt were embroidered by yourself?" After Xu Jinyu nodded, Cao Ying was amazed: "I didn't expect Miss Xu to have such exquisite embroidery skills, not to mention the daughter of the boudoir, even the embroidery girls in the embroidery pavilion probably can't catch up." ”

Heartfelt and sincere compliments, always pleasant to listen to.

Since Xu Jinyu entered the capital, she has seen many famous ladies. Silently compared it in my heart. Ji Yu is impulsive and impetuous, Gu Caiping is self-righteous, Ye Qiuyun has no one in her eyes, and Zhao Hui, the hostile Zuo Jiaoniang, appears for no reason. By the way, there is also Princess Anning, who is noble and lively. Each of them is more valuable than the other, but they all make her avoid them. Even Ji Yu, who is the most compatible, was cold and sharp at the beginning, and was guarded against each other.

Counting up, the only one who really made her feel that she fell in love at first sight was Cao Ying.

There is such a thing as fate between people. Some people don't have much deep affection all day long, such as Ji Yu. Some people only see it once, but they unexpectedly surrender to the deed.

Obviously, it is not only Xu Jinyu who feels this way, Cao Ying's eyes have been flashing with a smile: "To say something presumptuous, Miss Xu is not surprised. I hit Miss Xu at first sight today, and I have a heart-to-heart friendship. If Miss Xu doesn't dislike it. How do you and I fit in with each other? ”

Xu Jinyu smiled happily: "I also have this intention." ”

The two of them talked about their teeth, and Cao Ying was fifteen years old. One year older than Xu Jinyu. Xu Jinyu changed her voice and shouted: "Sister Cao." ”

Cao Ying smiled and said: "If I have free time in the future, Sister Xu might as well come to Cao's house to talk to me to relieve my boredom." ”

Just from this one sentence. It is enough to see Cao Ying's carefulness and thoughtfulness. After all, Xu Jinyu is living in the Hou Mansion, and it is inconvenient to invite guests.

Xu Jinyu responded with a smile

Xu Jinyu and Cao Ying talked very happily, and Ji Yu and the others were impatient, so they had already dragged Chen Lingxue to the side to enjoy the chrysanthemums. Ye Ling had the intention to stay, but Chen Yuanqing didn't give him the slightest chance to get close to Xu Jinyu, and enthusiastically dragged Ye Ling away.

Not far away, Zuo Jiaoniang and Zhao Hui were whispering.

On the surface, the two have to talk and laugh as harmoniously as they want. In fact, the two of them have been competing with each other and have a discord. Dig deeper into why. In fact, it has nothing to do with Chen Yuanzhao.

Both of them secretly admired Chen Yuanzhao, and they both had family backgrounds that were worthy of Chen Yuanzhao's famous daughters. Naturally, they don't like each other. originally thought that they were each other's biggest opponents, but unexpectedly, a Xu Jinyu came out halfway.

Chen Yuanzhao jumped into the pool to save Xu Jinyu in the Qin Palace, which had long spread throughout the social circle of the ladies in the capital. After Zuo Jiaoniang and Zhao Hui knew about this, they each cried angrily behind their backs. They were reluctant to be angry with Chen Yuanzhao, and they decided that it was Xu Jinyu who took the initiative to seduce ~ lead Chen Yuanzhao.

At first sight today, Xu Jinyu's beauty is even more envious. So, the two temporarily put aside each other's prejudices and gossiped together.

"This Xu Jinyu has some means." Zuo Jiaoniang's voice was a little disdainful: "I climbed up to the third miss of the Cao family so quickly." ”

Lord Cao has two sons and a daughter, Cao Ying is the youngest daughter of Lord Cao, and she is very favored at home.

Zhao Hui tugged at the corners of her lips, and her fluttering words revealed a bit meanness: "Lord Cao is the chief examiner of Qiuyu this year. Xu Jinyu's brother is going to participate in the Autumn Festival, so she naturally has to try her best to get to Miss Cao San's side. ”

Zuo Jiaoniang snorted lightly: "People have climbed up to the Anguo Mansion and climbed up to the second son of Chen." Where do you care about the Cao family. ”

The sourness in the words is clearly visible.

Zhao Hui sighed pretendedly: "Speaking of which, I'm really not worth it for Sister Zuo." Sister Zuo was born in a famous family. The appearance and talent are all first-class, and Chen Ergongzi is a match made in heaven. I have been looking forward to hearing the good news from Sister Zuo. Who would have thought. Such a good Xu Jinyu suddenly appeared, and it was rumored in private that the second son of Chen was interested in Xu Jinyu, and nine times out of ten he would come to the door to propose marriage. In this way, wouldn't it be in vain to live up to Sister Zuo's affection? ”

At first glance, it sounds like she is complaining about Zuo Jiaoniang, but in fact, every sentence is poking people's hearts.

Zuo Jiaoniang replied with a smile: "Sister Zhao misunderstood." How can I have any affection for Chen Ergongzi, he has a favorite woman, I will only be happy for him from the bottom of my heart. It's Sister Zhao, I heard that she has often walked around the Duke of Anguo Mansion in the past two years, and the Duchess of Anguo admires Sister Zhao very much, and has always planned to get married. Now in such a situation, it seems that Sister Zhao's hard work has been in vain. ”

Zhao Hui was said to be in the sore spot, and her smile was a little stiff.

The two of you, you look at me, I look at you, and suddenly sighed in unison.

Now that Chen Yuanzhao already likes others, what's the point of the two of them fighting back and forth?

Zhao Hui took the lead in sighing: "That's it, Sister Zuo, the two of us have known each other for so many years, and we are very familiar with each other. Don't beat around the bush like this, it's okay to have something to say. I see that this Xu Jinyu is not pleasing to the eye everywhere, and I always have to find an opportunity to suppress her limelight today, otherwise, I am really depressed and panicked. ”

Zhao Hui confided in her heart, Zuo Jiaoniang didn't hold on anymore, and lowered her voice and said, "Sister Zhao, what you said can be regarded as speaking to my heart." It's just you, and I'm convinced that my Zuo Jiaoniang loses and loses. But why did she pop up halfway? Except for that face, how can she be as good as you and me? If I don't show her some color today, I won't be happy. ”

"Okay, let's sum it up." Zhao Hui's eyes rolled, and his voice became more and more low.

The two didn't know what they were talking about together, and they glanced at Xu Jinyu from time to time

Strange, what did Zuo Jiaoniang and Zhao Hui say together, why did they always stare at her, looking ill-willed?

Xu Jinyu had already noticed the two of them, and she was secretly strange in her heart. When did she offend the two of them?

Cao Ying glanced at her gaze, and suddenly understood in her heart, and laughed in a low voice: "Sister Xu, you have not been in the capital for a long time, and you have been staying in the Hou Mansion, and you rarely come out to walk around, and some things are just not very clear." The famous ladies in Bianliang City are idle all day long, and their hearts and eyes are not much bigger than the tip of a needle. The two of them, I'm afraid they hate you in their hearts. ”

Xu Jinyu looked innocent: "I have never intersected with them, where does this hatred begin." ”

Cao Ying chuckled: "Don't you know that there are many boudoir daughters in the capital who secretly love Chen's second son, and Miss Zuo and Miss Zhao are the two with the most outstanding family backgrounds?" If it weren't for you, Duchess An Guo would have probably chosen one of the two of them to be her daughter-in-law a long time ago. ”

Xu Jinyu: ""

It's Chen Yuanzhao again!

First Ye Qiuyun, then Zuo Jiaoniang Zhao Hui, she has nothing to do with Chen Yuanzhao, but she is really angry because he has a few more enemies!

Xu Jinyu didn't want Cao Ying to have a misunderstanding, so she quickly explained: "Sister Cao misunderstood. Chen Ergongzi has the grace to save my life, and there is nothing else except for the first time. That Miss Zuo and Miss Zhao, I'm afraid they also misunderstood."

The smile in Cao Ying's eyes deepened, and her tone was very gentle: "You don't have to worry, I believe in you." However, the two of them have preconceived ideas, and they are afraid that they already regard you as rivals in love. Maybe I'll find an opportunity to make things difficult for you later. It's good that you're mentally prepared. ”

If there is no good feast, you will know that there will be no good thing! One Ye Qiuyun is enough, and now there are two more, which is really a headache.

It's so ugly to be jealous of a man! What's more, she is obviously innocent with Chen Yuanzhao, why should she deal with such trouble?

Xu Jinyu was sulking in her heart, and her face was naturally good and she couldn't see where to go.

Cao Ying obviously misunderstood, and smiled and reassured: "You don't have to worry too much. After all, she is a guest in Ye Mansion, and she is a very self-confident daughter, at most, she wants to suppress your limelight and be mean in her words. Won't do anything out of the ordinary. ”

This is really not out of line.

However, the Buddha fights for a stick of incense and people fight for a breath, who wants to be angry in vain?

Xu Jinyu quickly adjusted her mood and decided to pick up her spirits to take the call: "Thank you Sister Cao for reminding me, I will deal with it carefully." (To be continued......)
