Because of the silver, Chu Yu decided to go back to the streets of the capital again to buy something, after all, he couldn't go home empty-handed.

Now the day is more intense, and before I know it, it's time to eat, so I have to go back quickly, otherwise my family will worry.

Chu Yu's face wrinkled slightly, trying to shield the dazzling hot sun with his palm, but it didn't work at all.

Seeing this, Shuangqi hurriedly bought a blue oil umbrella from a nearby umbrella vendor.

"Miss, umbrella." , Frost Seven stretches the umbrella open.

Chu Yu hid in the umbrella, only to feel that the air was much cooler.

"Let's go and take a look at the ornaments."

"Hmm."

After walking a distance, the two walked into an accessory store.

The ornaments are not only jade, but also gold and silver.

Moreover, this jewelry store seems to be much larger than the one in the morning, and there are five or six small servants who look at the store.

Seeing the two walk in, a young man with a long camera greeted him with a smile.

"Guest officer, please take a look inside, we have all the accessories here." , the little guy was greeted with a burst of talk.

Chu Yu smiled and said, "Okay, you can go by yourself." ”

The little guy was stunned for a moment, as if it was the first time he had heard the guest officer let him go.

Seeing that the little guy didn't move, Chu Yu said again, "I will call you whichever one I like." ”

"Okay." , the little guy also reacted quickly and retreated with a smile.

It was noon, and most of the people had gone home to rest, and there was no one in the store, but it seemed a little deserted.

Chu Yu looked at the jewelry quietly on the side.

"Shopkeeper, this, this, this, that."

Chu Yu pointed and pointed, "Wrap it up for me." ”

"Okay!" , the little guy said in a cool voice, and quickly wrapped up the jewelry that Chu Yu wanted.

"A total of five hundred and twenty-eight taels of silver." , the little guy wrapped the things and respectfully handed them to Frost Seven beside Chu Yu.

Chu Yu looked faint and didn't say anything, then took out his purse and handed it to Shuangqi, asking Shuangqi to pay the money.

When the two walked out of the store, their stomachs sang about the empty city plan.

The master and servant looked at each other, and walked quickly in the direction of the general's mansion with a tacit understanding.

It's a hot summer day, and it's noon.

General's Palace.

"Yu'er has a heart." , grandma smiled so much that her face had a lot of folds.

Chu Yu looked at her grandmother with gray hair and a smile on her face, and couldn't help but feel distressed.

"Grandma, although this bracelet is not worth much, it is a piece of Yu'er's heart, I hope grandma will not dislike it." , Chu Yu took his grandmother's hand and put the jade bracelet on it.

Grandma laughed heartily.

"Yu'er, you're also past the age of Jilu, can Yu'er have a favorite person?" , Grandma stroked Chu Yu's jade hand.

Chu Yu pursed her lips and smiled, and said, "Grandma, this is what you want Yu'er to marry soon?" But Yu'er is reluctant to let her grandmother go. ”

Grandma glanced at Chu Yu and said, "Look at what you said, grandma is naturally reluctant to let you go, but you are a woman, you have to marry after all, of course, if you don't marry, the general's mansion will be able to support you for a lifetime." ”

Although Yu'er doesn't have a favorite person in her heart now, Yu'er knows that she will eventually get married. Although Yu'er is reluctant to give up the General's Mansion, she can't let the General's Mansion support her for a lifetime, even if you don't know how to say it, but other people's spit will drown Yu'er. Chu Yu winked playfully.

Grandma's expression was slightly sick, and she said, "Whoever dares to talk about the granddaughter of the General's Mansion, grandma will definitely make him unable to talk about it again." ”

Chu Yu smiled, but he didn't doubt his grandmother's words.

Grandma has always been a resolute and resolute person, otherwise she would not have become a female general.

"The crown prince of the dynasty is in the hearts of many noble girls, but grandma doesn't want you to get into this muddy water."

Grandma sighed, and then said, "The prince is the dragon and phoenix among people, if he ascends to the throne one day, he will be three thousand beauties in the harem." If he has affection for you, it is fine, but if he has no intention of you, I am afraid your life will not be easy. Your aunt is married to the emperor, and she looks glamorous on the surface, but she actually knows what it tastes like. ”

"The emperor's marriage has always been linked to politics."

"Moreover, there are many rules in this palace."

Chu Yu nodded, she understood.

In her previous life, she didn't understand, so she made a big mistake, and in this life, she won't.

Chu Yu chatted with her grandmother and left.

The remaining jewelry, a hosta was given to the mother, a pair of jade-inlaid silver earrings were given to Aunt Lin, and a jade-inlaid platinum chain was given to Chu Xinrou.

Partial Garden.

A woman in brocade clothes, about thirty years old, with crooked willow eyebrows, round almond eyes, and creamy skin, happened to sit upright on a dark wooden stool, and across from her sat a young girl of fifteen or sixteen years old, whose eyebrows and eyes were seven or eight points similar to the woman's.

It is surprising that there are two mothers and daughters, Aunt Lin and Chu Xinrou.

"Madame, Miss, this is a gift from the eldest lady to Madame and Mademoiselle. The eldest lady said that she had not been able to fulfill her duties to Madame and Mademoiselle in the ten years since she left, so she took this gift as a respect. Chun Tao presented a tray covered with a red cloth and said.

Aunt Lin glanced at the red cloth, then lowered her eyes and said, "Put it up, open it." ”

"Yes." Chun Tao lifted the red cloth, and a pair of jade-encrusted earrings and a jade-inlaid platinum necklace were presented in front of the two.

Chu Xinrou's curved eyebrows flashed with a glimmer of light.

When Aunt Lin saw the ornament, a trace of surprise flashed in her eyes, and she said, "Take it, go down and tell the eldest lady that we thank her." ”

"Yes." , Chun Tao bowed respectfully to the two.

"Mother, this is a good thing." , Chu Xinrou saw Chun Tao go down, so she reached out and picked up the chain.

Aunt Lin glared at her and said, "If you can become the crown princess, what good things will you have?" It's nothing. ”

Chu Xinrou put the chain back in a huff after hearing this, feeling a little reluctant in her heart, she really liked this chain, she felt that this chain was tailor-made for her.

The Crown Princess... Crown Princess.. It's the crown princess again.

Chu Xinrou felt a little bored, before she was ready, her mother often whispered in her ear to let her marry the prince.

"Mother, my daughter is not yet in time! Moreover, how can this crown princess be so easy to become, besides, I haven't even seen the prince face, how can I say that I can marry if I marry? Chu Xinrou frowned.

Aunt Lin hated that iron could not be made of steel, "Aren't you just half a year away?" Half a year passed quickly. The prince is the dragon and phoenix among the people in terms of appearance and ability, but ordinary women are eager to marry the prince, why did they come to you, but they came the other way around? ”

"Besides, who said you didn't see the prince, you did when you were five years old."

"Isn't it, you have someone in your heart?" After that, Aunt Lin's cold eyes turned around.

Chu Xinrou was taken aback by her mother's eyes coldly, and said, "No, no." ”

Ten years ago, when she was only five years old, she would remember that she had met the prince.

Besides, even if she did, she couldn't remember which one was which.

"The last time the queen summoned Chu Yu, it was probably for the princess." , Aunt Lin groaned.

She clearly remembered the queen's opinion of Chu Yu ten years ago.

The queen seems to be interested in letting Chu Yu marry the crown prince.

And last time, the queen summoned Chu Yu again.... Could it be that the queen really wants Chu Yu to marry the prince?

Thinking of this, Aunt Lin's hand pulling the handkerchief tightened.

In any case, she wants the prince to see the existence of her daughter, even if she can't be the crown princess, it's excellent to be a side concubine.

Although her daughter is not as light and beautiful as Chu Yu, she is also uniquely beautiful.

Chu Xinrou said perfunctorily after hearing this, "Hmm." ”

"Well, what well, if you don't fight a little more, the position of the crown princess will be on Chu Yu's head." , Aunt Lin said disgustedly.

"Got it." , Chu Xinrou nodded obediently.

I couldn't help but complain a little bit about Chu Yu in my heart. Chu Yu, Chu Yu, my mother's mouth is all Chu Yu! She can't compare to her in anything.

....

Besides, how did she know how to work hard?

She hadn't even seen the prince's face, so she had to follow the prince?

"Two months later is the queen's birthday, you have to behave well, your embroidery and piano skills are excellent, you must take advantage of this opportunity."

Seeing Chu Xinrou's absent-minded face, Aunt Lin's tone was a little displeased, "Don't think about where to go out to play in the past two months, stay at home to embroider and practice, and you must embroider a picture of dragon and phoenix harmony." Remember, your piano skills can't be wasted. ”

Chu Xinrou listened to it, and thought to herself, she had to live another two boring days, so she drooped her head and said, "Got it, mother." ”

Aunt Lin frowned when she saw Chu Xinrou like this, but after all, she didn't say anything and let her retreat.

It's really uncompromising!

After Chu Xinrou went down, Aunt Lin glanced at the things on the table, and the corners of her mouth hooked up with contempt, this kind of third-rate goods can only deceive a girl like Rou'er who has never seen good things.

Aunt Lin got up and said, "Come on, take down the things on the table." ”

"Yes." After a while, a maid came in and silently put away the ornaments on the table.

Everything, as if it hadn't happened.

.....

"Yu'er, this hairpin is really beautiful." , Song Qingyu happily looked at the bronze mirror and inserted the hairpin.

Chu Yu smiled, "It's good if my mother doesn't dislike it." ”

"I bought it all in a store in the capital, but my mother looks good at everything." , Chu Yu leaned next to Song Qingyu's ear and said with a smile.

Song Qingyu smiled happily.

"What are you talking about? So happy? Daddy Chu Yanlin walked in from outside the door.

"The hosta that Yu'er bought for me." , Song Qingyu turned around and said with a smile.

Chu Yanlin pretended to be displeased and said, "Yu'er, you are biased, you only buy gifts for your mother, not for your father." ”

Chu Yu looked at such a childish father and said with a smile, "Daddy, I will definitely buy it for you next time." ”
