Chapter 30: Chu Jingyan's Secret
However, with the help of Chu Jingyan, Chu Jiayin can be regarded as in the limelight today. not only proved that he was very outstanding in all his talents, but also hinted that he had lost his mother since he was a child in the Chu family, and his father preferred the children born and raised in the outer room, and secretly harvested a large wave of sympathy.
Chu Yun's poems at the beginning were perfectly crushed by Chu Jiayin in all aspects, and the talents behind were also inferior, and Chu Yun's face was almost blue.
"In that case, don't blame me for being ruthless." Chu Yun's face had already begun to be distorted by hatred.
In the blink of an eye, it is noon, the flower-viewing banquet lasts for a whole day, and at noon, everyone goes to the front hall to dine together, after the meal, everyone can choose to take a short break or enjoy the flowers in the back mountain, and then continue the program of "Winding Water".
"Sister." After eating, Chu Jiayin and Chu Jingyan were wandering around the princess's manor, but they were stopped by Chu Yun, Chu Yun pulled Chu Jiayin to the side, "You guys were walking too fast just now, I didn't keep up, I didn't know anyone at this flower-viewing banquet, I happened to meet Song Gongzi, so I sat with him, sister, you won't blame me." β
Chu Jiayin sneered: "Who are you going to seduce, what does it have to do with me?" β
Chu Yun's eyes turned red in an instant, tears fell, and she pretended to pull Chu Jiayin's sleeve pitifully: "Sister, I really didn't mean it, if it weren't for you, you would ...... Leave me behind...... I won't ...... either."
Chu Jiayin pushed Chu Yun away irritably, but she didn't notice that she had just been taken to the lake by Chu Yun, and when she pushed Chu Yun away, because she was secretly dragged by Chu Yun, the two of them fell into the lake in the blink of an eye.
"Someone, help, someone has fallen into the water!" The female dependents not far away shouted, and before the words fell, Chu Jiayin and Chu Yun were already standing, the lake was not too deep, and it was not up to the waists of the two of them. Chu Jiayin and Chu Yun quickly went ashore, and the woman who shouted for help was a little embarrassed, and quickly changed the topic: "Your clothes are all wet, hurry up and find the princess, and ask her to ask someone to take you to change your clothes." β
Chu Jiayin felt that Chu Yun must have done it intentionally this time, but she didn't know what kind of conspiracy she had, so she sighed, and could only come to cover up the water.
The princess sent a maid to lead Chu Jiayin and Chu Yun to the guest room, Chu Jiayin followed the maid forward, pulled Chu Jingyan's sleeve, and whispered in Chu Jingyan's ear: "If Chu Yun wants to do something later, the second brother must save me." β
Chu Jingyan nodded, his eyes moved slightly, fortunately, he knew that it was not too stupid to ask him for help.
The maid found a set of clothes for Chu Jiayin and Chu Yun respectively, and then withdrew outside the door.
Chu Jiayin was on guard, and after picking out a piece of clothing at random, he took a few steps back, away from Chu Yun.
Unexpectedly, although Chu Yun didn't get close to him, he suddenly felt that his eyes were dark and he fainted.
When Chu Jiayin woke up again, she had already changed her clothes and fell into Chu Jingyan's arms.
"Second brother, what happened? I seem to have fainted when I followed the maid into the room to change clothes...... My head hurts. Chu Jiayin knocked on his head.
"Don't knock, let's go, go to the show." Chu Jingyan indifferently pressed Chu Jiayin's hand knocking on his head.
Chu Jiayin was a little puzzled, but she immediately followed obediently. I also know that it must be Chu Jingyan who made a move to help her solve a big trouble.
"Do you know, that Chu Yun of the Chu family, in broad daylight, was naked and hugged Song Shuming!"
"Snort, this Song Shuming is the one who has a marriage contract with Chu Jiayin."
"According to legend, this Chu Jiayin has a deep love for Song Shuming, and whenever there is a public appearance of Song Shuming, there must be Chu Jiayin."
"This Chu Yun is really shameless! The fiancΓ© who hooked up with his sister-in-law hooked up to the princess's manor. β
"It's originally a shady thing born and raised in the outer room, and naturally it's customary to use these pickling methods."
"It's a shame that someone bumped into it, but this sixth lady of the Chu family is infatuated with the son of the Song family, but I don't know that people have long been secretly with their sister-in-law."
After listening to the discussions of others, Chu Jiayin probably understood the situation.
Chu Yun drugged her when the two of them fell into the water together to make her unconscious, and then somehow moved Song Shuming and let Song Shuming enter the room where she was changing clothes.
Chu Yun's trick can be described as vicious, if she is allowed to succeed, she will inevitably end up in ruin. This time it was his own carelessness, and he didn't know how to make Chu Yun successfully drugged when he had a sense of defense.
However, it is really not easy for his second brother to not only save himself silently, but also to make Chu Yun suffer the consequences.
Chu Yun really stole chickens and rice, and did not harm Chu Jiayin, but ruined his reputation.
Chu Jiayin couldn't help but praise herself, hey, although I am a little stupid and lazy, I have good eyes and good thighs!
Chu Yun had already returned to the Chu family crying, she was awakened by everyone's discussion and Song Shuming's exclamations, she woke up naked in Song Shuming's arms, the people around her were pointing at her, Chu Yun put on her clothes and rushed out of the door. Song Shuming has also brushed his sleeves and left the table, and he doesn't know why Chu Jiayin, who said well, has become Chu Yun, and it has nothing to do with him, it is these women who are seducing.
Chu Jiayin sighed, blaming herself, she woke up a little late, and when she came out to watch the play, the protagonists in the play had already withdrawn.
After listening to the discussions of others for a while, Chu Jiayin felt a little bored, and complained: "Second brother, you know that there is a good show to watch, so you don't wake me up earlier." β
Chu Jingyan chuckled: "It's you who sleep too deeply." β
Chu Jiayin snorted angrily, and went to say goodbye to Princess Shengping. If something like this happened, Chu Jiayin and Chu Jingyan naturally didn't need to attend the afternoon flower viewing banquet.
Chu Jiayin and Chu Jingyan stopped at the gate of the Chu Mansion in a carriage.
Chu Jiayin fell into the water, in the end, she was cold, and the clothes she changed in the princess's mansion were a little thin, and when Chu Jingyan helped her get out of the carriage, the whole person looked a little sickly delicate.
"Yinyin, I'm sorry for my Yinyin." As soon as Mrs. Chu saw Chu Jiayin, she hugged her and cried.
"Grandmother, Yinyin is fine." Chu Jiayin comforted Mrs. Chu in a soft voice, "What about Chu Yun?" β
"Hmph, kneeling in the ancestral hall." As soon as she heard Chu Yun's name, Old Madam Chu's face suddenly changed.
"Yinyin, you go back to rest first, grandmother will definitely let the Song family give you an explanation. As for Chu Yun's little cheap hoof, grandmother will not spare her easily! β
Old Mrs. Chu's bedroom.
"What grievances did Yin Yin suffer when she went to the flower viewing banquet this time?" Old Madam Chu hurriedly took Chu Jiayin's hand and asked.
Chu Jiayin shook his head and said, "Fortunately, the second brother is here." β
Chu Jiayin told Mrs. Chu about the things at the flower viewing banquet and some of her conjectures.
Old Madam Chu sighed: "Over the years, it was my grandmother who despised you, the second brother. During these days, if it weren't for the Chu family...... Hmph, why don't you let the Song family knead like this! β
Chu Jiayin's face changed, and he asked worriedly, "Chu family? Is the Chu family like this? Grandmother, tell me, is something wrong with the Chu family? β
"It's not a big deal, our Chu family has been an imperial merchant for generations, and we have to deal with the government, bumps and bumps are common, something has happened recently, and we need the Song family to help with the turnover of the government. agreed to marry the Song family back then, firstly, because you really like Song Shuming's kid, and secondly, the Song family has a high status in the officialdom, and this marriage is somewhat in order to make the Chu family more profitable when dealing with official and business relations. blame the grandmother for being useless, this is why the Song family came to the door to humiliate before the flower-viewing banquet, and this time Song Shuming and Chu Yun did such ugly things again! β
Chu Jiayin said secretly, although this matter is taken advantage of by his own side, it is because of the relationship of interests that the Song family is shorter, and I am afraid that it will not be beneficial in the end.
"Grandmother, I want to go to the ancestral hall to see Chu Yun." Chu Jiayin changed the subject.
"Okay, Yinyin, you call Chu Jingyan to the front hall, and grandmother wants to talk to him later."
Whether it is the daily report of the eyeliner arranged by Mrs. Chu in the Linglong Pavilion, or Chu Jiayin's relay of the flower-viewing banquet today, it shows that Chu Jingyan has no ill will towards Chu Jiayin for the time being, teaches him seriously, and protects him wholeheartedly. But even so, Chu Jingyan has too many secrets hidden in him, and Old Madam Chu is still a little uneasy.
In response to the old lady's words, Chu Jiayin went to Linglong Pavilion to find Chu Jingyan first. Today's incident is also thanks to his help, otherwise I don't know how much trouble I will make, I should thank him by the way.
Quietly entered the Linglong Pavilion, Chu Jiayin first went to the kitchen to ask the cook for a snack, and then happily looked for Chu Jingyan in the courtyard.
In the big yard, the apricot blossom trees are in full bloom, and the petals are falling all over the sky, like a dream. There is a swing next to the tree, and when the wind blows, it sways gently.
On the other side, there stood a long figure, with long black hair and a side face like a carving. Chu Jingyan was looking at the new shoots of the apricot tree, holding the flute that he often stroked on weekdays, quietly, only the green silk fluttering in the wind, like the person in the painting.
Chu Jiayin held the pastry and stood not far away and looked at him blankly for a long time, until Chu Jingyan noticed that someone was behind him and looked back.
Chu Jingyan smiled at Chu Jiayin, and the smile between his eyebrows was soft, as gentle as a spring breeze.
The second brother looked like this, Chu Jiayin saw it for the first time, and he stayed there for a moment while indulging in his brother's beauty. After realizing that he had committed a nymphomaniac who couldn't walk, Chu Jiayin, the goose shook his head like a water, dragged his thoughts back, and walked forward as if nothing happened.
It's just that when he thought that when he looked at his second brother in a daze, he was looking at himself, and the embarrassment was still there, and his expression couldn't help but be a little uncomfortable.
