Chapter Seventy-One: The Rich
Gong Xiuzhu stared at her for a while with cold eyes, and finally turned around and turned away indifferently.
Looking at his back gradually moving away, Chu Xuewei felt aggrieved and annoyed in her heart, and was about to stretch out her right hand to compare a middle finger to his back, when the guy suddenly turned around.
Chu Xuewei was startled, and hurriedly stood up the remaining four fingers quickly, shaking them gently: "Goodbye, prince!" ”
"......" Gong Xiuzhu frowned.
Just now, Chu Xuewei compared his middle finger, and he could see it clearly.
I don't know what that gesture means, but it looks bad!
"You're waiting for me here!"
Gong Xiuzhu indifferently finished this sentence, then turned around and left without looking back.
Knowing that Gong Xiuzhu completely disappeared at the end of the corridor, Chu Xuewei finally couldn't help but start despising herself:
Chu Xuewei, Chu Xuewei, you are really useless!
Every time this big devil's face is slightly wrong, you are so scared that you can't say a word, but you are really cowardly!
"Nasty! Ahh Chu Xuewei held back the fire in her belly, saw a tree on the side of the road, and was so angry that she raised her foot and kicked at the tree.
"Boom!" But how could her delicate feet be hard over the trunk, and this kick was also her own painful grinning.
She bent her wounded leg, looked around, and finally saw a small gazebo not far away, so she jumped under it and rested.
She jumped all the way with her legs bent, so the palace maids and eunuchs who passed by along the way saw a smile on the corner of her mouth.
Chu Xuewei couldn't care so much, and sighed while rubbing her feet: "Chu Xuewei, this time you must catch the big fat sheep of the prince, otherwise, you will live in the shadow of Gong Xiuzhu forever!" ”
"Heh, it turns out that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is just referring to the big fat sheep in your eyes?"
Just as Chu Xuewei was talking to herself, a clear female voice suddenly came from behind her.
She was startled and turned her head in surprise, and Princess Anyang was standing at the door with a cold face at this time, looking at her with displeasure.
Princess Anyang saw that Chu Xuewei didn't react much, so she continued: "If these words are heard by Brother Zhu...... Tut-tut, I really don't know what kind of things he will do with his temper! ”
Chu Xuewei seemed to smell the smell of the bad comer.
But she herself is not a good stubble, and she definitely has no reason to be coerced like this.
So she put down the hem of her skirt lightly and stood up: "Princess Anyang hiding behind people and eavesdropping on the elders doesn't seem to be a generous move. ”
Seeing Chu Xuewei's appearance that was neither humble nor arrogant, Princess Anyang was secretly shocked in her heart.
Just now in the Queen Mother's bedroom, she thought that Chu Xuewei's calmness was all bluffing.
But now that she looks at it, it doesn't seem that she is really not the pork that is slaughtered on the board.
It's just a blink of an eye, and thousands of thoughts have emerged in Princess Anyang's heart. But immediately, she suddenly smiled again, and her eyes were as clear as a clear spring.
"Hahaha, princess, look at you, people are joking with you!"
Princess Anyang's laughter like a silver bell was a little harsh when it fell on Chu Xuewei's ears at this time.
She didn't believe that this Princess Anyang came here to greet her!
"Princess, don't mind if I sit here?" Princess Anyang said this, and she had already sat down first.
Chu Xuewei still maintains one of the seven princesses: "This is a royal holy land, and Princess Anyang is a royal princess, so you naturally don't need my consent to sit anywhere." ”
After saying this, Chu Xuewei went straight down and kneading her ankles.
Seeing that Chu Xuewei didn't have anything to talk to about herself, Princess Anyang was not afraid of a hot face and a cold buttocks, and said with a smile: "I heard that the princess's sister lives in the small building next to Yanghui Pavilion?" ”
Chu Xuewei nodded: "Sort of." ”
Princess Anyang smiled meaningfully, and when she spoke again, her tone became secretive: "Does Sister Princess know who lived in that small building before?" ”
As soon as these words came out, Princess Anyang froze when she saw Chu Xuewei's expression, and couldn't help but smile: "Sister Princess, is it possible, you don't know who lived in that small building before?" Or is it ...... Is it that the prince has never mentioned it to you? ”
Chu Xuewei had actually guessed before that Xiaozhu's previous owner was most likely Gong Xiuzhu's sweetheart.
But...... It can't be the princess of Anyang in front of you, right?
She didn't believe that Gong Xiuzhu's vision would be so bad!
"It doesn't matter who the previous owner of Xiaozhu was, the important thing is that I am the hostess there now." Chu Xuewei said lightly.
On the other hand, An Yang didn't know what Chu Xuewei was thinking now, she just thought that she had been poked in the sore foot by herself, and she was hard-mouthed at this time!
She blinked innocently: "Well, I once heard Brother Zhu say that Concubine Xi actually hates that Xiaozhu very much, and she can't wait to raze it to the ground." It's a pity that Brother Zhu didn't allow it, and even let out a word that he must keep this house and wait for its real owner to come back. Concubine Xi saw that Brother Zhu had made up her mind, and she didn't want to hurt their mother and son easily just for such a small house, so she didn't continue to take care of this matter. ”
"Well, and then what?" Chu Xuewei was not shocked on her pretty face, but just looked at An Yang quietly.
Seeing that Chu Xuewei was so calm, Princess Anyang was also stunned for a moment. She stared at Chu Xuewei's face, trying to find traces of uncalmness in her expression, but unfortunately, she didn't find anything.
Obviously very dissatisfied in her heart, Princess Anyang supported the table with both hands, and was almost about to stand up: "Princess, don't you really want to know who the owner of that small building is?" ”
Chu Xuewei calmly looked at Princess Anyang in front of her.
Although according to the age of the body, Anyang is eighteen years old, two years older than Chu Xuewei.
But mentally, Chu Xuewei was already in her twenties in her last life, plus she is now in her teens-
If you count, she can be considered to be forty or fifty years old.
has lived for two lifetimes, if you can't even handle such a little girl, wouldn't it be in vain?
"Anyang, do you know why Gong Xiuzhu doesn't like you?"
Chu Xuewei's cold words made Princess Anyang stunned in an instant.
She likes Gong Xiuzhu, whether it is to the current Queen Mother or the emperor, or even to Gong Xiuzhu himself, she has never covered it up.
Now, Chu Xuewei suddenly said such a sentence, and she was stunned for a moment.
But in addition to being surprised, she began to look forward to the answer to this question in her heart.
Why exactly? Why can't Brother Zhu always accept him?
"What kind of person Gong Xiuzhu is, I think you should know better than me. What he doesn't want to do, no one can force him. What he likes to do, even if anyone wants to stop it, can't stop it. ”
Chu Xuewei said the first word, and even Princess Anyang's eyes lit up with her words, she was waiting for Chu Xuewei's next words.
"But he doesn't like you, and you want to force your affection on him, and that's why he doesn't like you."
After saying this, Chu Xuewei bowed slightly, smiled meaningfully, turned around and walked in the direction outside the pavilion.
"Whew!"
Chu Xuewei took a big breath of fresh air, she was really refreshed!
At this moment, Princess Anyang, who was sitting in the pavilion and did not leave, was still thinking about what Chu Xuewei said.
It wasn't until Chu Xuewei was far away that she suddenly came back to her senses.
What Chu Xuewei means is that the fact that she likes Gong Xiuzhu is wrong, and Gong Xiuzhu hates her because she likes Gong Xiuzhu? If he doesn't like Gong Xiuzhu, maybe he can give himself some good colors?
"Damn!"
Princess Anyang stood up abruptly, turned around and glared in the direction Chu Xuewei had left.
But in this huge imperial garden, in addition to the few palace people who came and went, there was also the shadow of Chu Xuewei there?
The powder fist under the wide sleeve was clenched tightly, and the corners of Princess Anyang's mouth tugged, forcibly suppressing the anger in her belly.
The pink-clothed maid who had been standing aside couldn't help but change her face when she saw Princess Anyang's angry cheeks flushed and her body trembled slightly.
She hurriedly walked to Princess Anyang's side, grabbed her palm and squeezed it hard.
A deep voice also sounded: "Princess is angry, you must pay attention to your body!" ”
When Princess Anyang heard this voice, she suddenly came back to her senses.
She frowned, sulked for a moment, and returned to her usual innocent happiness on her face: "Also, the nobility and lowness in your bones can't be changed." Even if she is proud now, she can't change her identity. We don't have to be angry with this kind of person, this kind of person will definitely be cleaned up by others. ”
After Chu Xuewei left the Imperial Garden, she had just walked to the arch when she saw the hydrangea waiting outside in a hurry.
As soon as Hydrangea saw Chu Xuewei, her eyes lit up.
She happily ran to Chu Xuewei's side, took her hand, and looked up and down a few times: "Princess, are you okay?" ”
Chu Xuewei couldn't help but want to laugh when she saw her like this, but at the same time, a warm current rose in her heart.
Chu Xuewei smiled and rubbed Hydrangea's head, and turned around playfully: "Don't worry, I'm fine!" ”
Seeing her princess smiling and groaning, Hydrangea finally put her mind at ease.
She tiptoed to look behind Chu Xuewei, and couldn't help but ask, "Princess, what about the prince, why didn't he come out with you?" ”
At the mention of Gong Xiuzhu, Chu Xuewei couldn't help but think of what Princess Anyang had just said to herself.
"Princess, don't you really want to know who the owner of that little building is?"
How could she, Chu Xuewei, not be curious?
That man left behind so many precious medicinal herbs, and ......
And she is very likely to be Gong Xiuzhu's sweetheart.
I don't know why, when I thought of this, Chu Xuewei's chest felt a little depressed inexplicably. She frowned and waved her hand impatiently: "He can go wherever he falls in love, what does it matter to me." ”
After saying this, Chu Xuewei raised her legs and was about to walk out.
Hydrangea hurriedly followed: "Princess, aren't we waiting for the prince?" ”
Chu Xuewei's steps paused, of course she hadn't forgotten what Gong Xiuzhu said to herself before leaving.
It's just that why should I wait for him?
He just crossed over and occupied Chu Xuewei's body.
Theoretically speaking, she is not the real Chu Xuewei at all, why should she be as well-behaved and obedient as his wife?
Thinking of this, Chu Xuewei snorted angrily: "Does he have no legs or can't walk?" Why should I wait for him? ”
Hydrangea scratched the back of her head suspiciously, hesitated for a moment, and finally left with Chu Xuewei.
Alas. What did the prince do, why did he make the princess angry again?
Chu Xuewei led the hydrangea and quickly left the palace. This trip to the palace seemed to be very unpeaceful, so Hydrangea found that after her princess got into the carriage, the whole person looked very sullen.
The carriage traveled for about half an hour, gradually moving away from the heavily guarded palace.
Horse-drawn carriages gradually drove into the bustling streetscape, and the roadside stalls and pedestrians gradually increased.
Listening to the noisy voices outside the carriage, Hydrangea suddenly became interested, looked at Chu Xuewei and asked excitedly, "Princess Princess, do you want to go down and take a walk?" There are so many new and cute gadgets out there! ”
Chu Xuewei was actually a little interested in her heart, but she just glanced down at the palace clothes on her body, and shook her head with some interest:
"Forget it, if I continue to dress like this, it's too ostentatious."
Hydrangea smiled proudly, as if she was juggling, she churned out a small package from the carriage, and pulled out a piece of clothing: "I guessed that it was inconvenient for the princess to wear such a cumbersome palace dress, no, I also prepared clothes for you to wear often!" ”
Chu Xuewei's eyes lit up suddenly: "You are really eccentric." ”
Quickly changed into civilian clothes, Chu Xuewei and Hydrangea got out of the carriage together, and the carriage followed far behind them.
Their master and servant walked side by side, walking and strolling.
Chu Xuewei was not a person who was very good at hiding things, but now she was attracted by these interesting things, and soon forgot why she was depressed just now.
Chu Xuewei passed by an antique shop, suddenly stopped, and then turned back.
"Princess, why are you going?" Hydrangea was holding a large bag in her arms, and hurriedly turned around and followed.
When Hydrangea just walked into the antique store, she saw Chu Xuewei standing by the counter, holding a dark blue hairpin in her hand and playing with it. The hairpin is made of fine jade, and it looks very precious.
As soon as he saw Hydrangea coming in, he said, "Hydrangea, do you look at this hosta?" Isn't it particularly suitable for Yuanguang? ”
Before Hydrangea had time to speak, the shopkeeper on the side walked over with a smile: "This young lady has good eyesight!" This hosta is also what I just received. Take a closer look at the color of this hairpin, and then look at the texture of this fine jade, which is not superior? If it weren't for the lack of money at home, the original owner would never have been able to take out this hosta and sell it cheaply! ”
Chu Xuewei raised her eyebrows and glanced at the shopkeeper: "You mean that the person who sold this hosta is short of money in his family?" ”
The shopkeeper smiled and nodded.
Chu Xuewei thought for a while and continued to ask: "Then how much does this hosta sell for?" ”
The shopkeeper stretched out two fingers: "Two hundred taels." ”
Hearing this, Hydrangea's eyes almost fell out: "Two hundred taels, why is it so expensive?" Boss, you'd better grab the money faster! ”
As soon as the shopkeeper heard Hydrangea's unobstructed scolding, he was not happy, and was about to open his mouth to push back, but he heard Chu Xuewei speak: "Two hundred taels, right?" So I will give you two hundred and fifty taels, and fifty taels more. I know that if you buy something from you, you are going to take a part of the profits. The fifty taels I gave you extra will be regarded as the profit you have earned from it, and you will give the remaining two hundred taels to the original owner. ”
