CHAPTER XXVIII

When the two of them went to the front living room, the Cui family, the Zhang family and Chen Ziyao were all waiting.

"Sister, what's the matter with your face?!"

The first thing he found was Cui Yujin, in fact, Chen Ziyao also found out, but he didn't want to speak rashly, so he only looked at her with concern.

Cui Yuzhu turned sideways slightly, avoiding his scrutiny.

Second Mrs. Cui also changed her face, "Yesterday was fine, why is it like this today?" ”

Cui Yuzhu didn't answer, only looked at Chen Nanying.

Chen Nanying saw that everyone's eyes were on her, and she couldn't help but hate her in her heart.

Chen Ziyao spoke, "Sister, what's going on with my cousin's face?" ”

Chen Nanying saw that he couldn't dodge, so he had to avoid the important and said lightly: "Hmm...... My sister fell on the swing yesterday. ”

Fell? How did the good ones fall?

Everyone was shocked, but Chen Ziyao saw his sister's eyes flickering, and felt that there was probably something to do.

Cui Yuzhu shook her head lightly, and said in her heart: She is so cheeky, she only said that I fell, but she didn't say how she fell, anyway, it has nothing to do with her, right?

She said: "Don't worry, mother, I've been prepared." ”

I saw Chuncao on the side take out a gilded tassel veil with hanging ears and put it on for her, and naturally blocked the red marks on her face.

The tassel veil does not cover the facial features, but there is a hazy beauty that still hugs the pipa and half-covers the face, and she focuses on plum blossom makeup today, and the plum blossoms on her forehead are eye-catching, and it is amazing at a glance.

"What does my sister think?" Cui Yuzhu smiled slightly, and the smile was hidden under the veil and looked a little mysterious.

Chen Nanying seemed to be choked, and couldn't say anything better.

Chen Ziyao quietly looked at the two younger sisters, only to feel that there seemed to be an undercurrent between them, and they were no longer very friendly.

He set his eyes on Cui Yuzhu, and he saw that she wore a dark green shawl on her shoulders more than Nan Ying, and the whole was much brighter. The two ends of the long shawl were wrapped around the back of her arms and drooped, and when she stood quietly, she was as quiet as a pool of water, and when she walked, she was elegantly stretched like a willow blowing in the wind, and the movement and stillness complemented each other beautifully.

He took two steps forward, and only five feet away felt the fragrance hit people, and said to himself: I can smell her fragrance from so far away, how wonderful it would be if I could embrace her one day.

He praised: "My cousin is ingenious, and she looks more beautiful than usual." ”

This sounds very sincere.

Cui Yuzhu doesn't hate him, she is still very open to people. smiled at him at the moment, which was regarded as thanking him for his praise.

Chen Ziyao was slightly stupid, and was almost blinded by this smile.

Second Mrs. Cui was also relieved to see that she knew how to remedy herself, and hurriedly said: "It's not early, you two hurry up, don't miss something." ”

……

Cui Yuzhu and Chen Nanying got into the carriage under the eyes of everyone, and before leaving, the second lady Cui stuffed a purse for her, which was heavy, and Cui Yuzhu kept it in her hand.

Thinking about it, her mother was still not at ease, so she stuffed a pass. In fact, it doesn't have to, her face is not disfigured, just a little bruise, it's nothing.

If he is really eliminated in the first round, there may be very few people left. The official is not blind, although she is not earth-shatteringly beautiful, but at least she can be regarded as an upper-average appearance, right?

After reassuring herself, Cui Yuzhu's eyes gradually regained firmness.

The carriage of the Cui family was spacious enough, Cui Yuzhu and Chen Nanying each brought a personal slave, and a total of four people sat without crowding, but they were always relatively silent because of the previous events.

This is not good, after all, it is the cousin who is sitting in the same car, and if the two people are strangers, it will definitely cause speculation from outsiders.

Chen Nanying thought for a moment and broke the silence.

"My sister is still angry with me?"

Cui Yuzhu held the purse in her hand, her thumb and fingertips were smooth on the embroidered peony pattern, and her eyelids were drooping, as if she had not heard of it.

"I saw my sister fall down yesterday, I didn't mean not to help you, I was also scared stupid at the time, and I didn't react for a while. But you think, you and my sister, how could I do such a thing on purpose? ”

"I couldn't sleep all night last night, I always felt ashamed of my sister, for fear that my sister would not be able to participate in the election, until I saw my sister today, my sister was relieved."

Cui Yuzhu was annoyed by her hypocritical appearance and said hypocritical words, and she wanted to scold but couldn't scold, so she had to pretend that she didn't hear it.

Chen Nanying said again: "Sister, whether you want to forgive me or not, why don't we go out and act kindly, otherwise won't it be seen as a joke?" ”

Cui Yuzhu looked up at her when she heard this, and said lightly: "Sister is too worried, how can I be such a person who doesn't care about decency?" On the outside, we are both prosperous and loss-oriented. I'm quite relieved of myself, but I'm just not worried about my sister......"

"There are many noble ladies recruited every year, especially this year. Like Sister Xu, she happened to have an illness last year and missed it, and with her this year, I can't get ahead, and my sister's move yesterday is really redundant. Also, I am the same year as Fang Fei, and she should be on the roster this year. ”

Chen Nanying opened her mouth slightly, as if she was quite surprised.

Cui Yuzhu looked at her fixedly, and said word by word: "So...... Have you ever won her? ”

Have you ever won it?

Naturally, I can't fight. That person had already made up his mind, just to go through the motions and have fun.

Chen Nanying couldn't speak for a while, and the atmosphere was embarrassing.

Chuncao laughed secretly in her heart: Tell you to make it bad, you have nothing to say now, right?

Cui Yuzhu just said casually, the blow hit her, in fact, it is unlikely that there is an inside story here.

No matter how expensive her Weiguo Mansion is, it can't be as expensive as so many marquis of the family, it's just the name of a flower goddess, and it's not a concubine, so there is no need to make such a big move.

What's more, like the county lord of Yongle and the county lord of Changle, they all have books, who dares to cheat?

But fortunately, Chen Nanying was stimulated by her words, and thoughtful along the way, the two of them survived all the way to the place of the election.
