Chapter Eighty-Five: It's a Big Deal
Haitang looked at her like this, and said as if relieved, "Xi'er, you don't seem to be the same as before. ”
Xiao Qi took out the silver taels that had been prepared for a long time, Chu Yuxi took it, carefully put it in Haitang's hand, and said seriously: "If it is the same as before, now my aunt is afraid that she will not be able to see her daughter." These silver taels are good for my aunt to take away, and now my daughter and Yulin are angry, I don't expect them to bully my aunt anymore. My aunt just has to live this life more comfortably, she should eat and drink, and she must not be bitter anymore. ”
Chu Yulin stepped forward and echoed: "What my sister said is exactly right. ”
Haitang repeatedly excused herself, "I'm enough, it's not easy for your sister to be in the palace." You keep this money for yourself and secretly adjust it, you have to take care of your body, I see that you have lost a lot of weight than when you first entered the palace. ”
Seeing that she didn't answer again and again, Chu Yuxi had no choice but to let go of the cruel words, "If you don't accept this money, you won't recognize my daughter and Yulin." If you don't recognize us, then we're gone. ”
After finishing speaking, he pretended to be serious and wanted to go with Chu Yulin, and Haitang responded, "Okay, good." ”
The three of them looked at each other and smiled. Chu Yuxi took out some silver taels out of her pocket and gave them to the two girls who served her, "I see that you are also clever, and you will serve your aunt in the future, and your benefits are indispensable." But if I let me know that you are sweet and bitter, and I will come and clean you up myself. ”
Haitang quietly watched Chu Yuxi preach, her eyes full of love.
Her daughter, when she finally grows up, can finally be on her own.
The two girls hurriedly knelt down and agreed.
Chu Yuxi avoided them, and was thinking about asking about Leng Yilu, but he didn't want to hear any movement outside.
She thought the time had come, but she didn't want the big lady to come here.
"Xi'er, I'm finally looking forward to you back."
As soon as the eldest lady came up, she grabbed Chu Yuxi's slender hand, and said with a look of shame: "Back then, you were sent to the cold palace, and I tried my best to visit, and your father didn't know how much to ask for, but it was all in vain...... Fortunately, you Ji people have their own natural appearance, and they can be saved when they fall into the water that year, and they have found a way to come out after being beaten into the cold palace for nearly half a year, which is really lucky! ”
That year overboard...... Chu Yuxi's focus is only on this.
Chu Yuxi asked with a cold face, "Why doesn't my mother worship me?" ”
The eldest lady was stunned for a moment, then laughed and did not speak.
Haitang was about to speak, but Chu Yu said helplessly: "I also act according to the rules, my mother won't blame me, right?" ”
"How can it be ......" The eldest lady hurriedly saluted, and only got up after getting Chu Yuxi's permission, and then said, "It's because I'm so happy, so I forgot the rules for a while, don't care too much about it." ”
Chu Yuxi's eyes reappeared with a smile, "Mother is serious." ”
This is in stark contrast to her previous situation of giving Begonia a big gift. Chu Yuxi knew that she couldn't make a big deal today, but if she could make her unhappy, she still had to try her best to make her unhappy.
"Now that Xi'er can be favored, it can bring a lot of blessings to our Chu family. Knowing that Xi'er was coming, I specially asked people to find skilled craftsmen to create several jade earrings and white jade beads and hairpins in the style of the palace, and I hope that Xi'er will not dislike my mother's heart. ”
The eldest lady gave the slave behind her a look, and saw her holding a delicately made brocade box in her hand and holding it in front of Chu Yuxi.
Xiao Qi stretched out his hand to take it, and Chu Yuxi was about to thank him, but he heard the eldest lady sigh suddenly: "It's a pity, no matter how good my white jade bead hairpin is, I can't compare to the one I gave you back then, right?" "Zero Zero Book House
Haitang's face was flustered, "Madam, you can't talk nonsense. ”
She still thought that she was the little Bai Chu Yu back then, and she still thought about using this little trick.
Chu Yuxi stretched out her hand and gently hugged the eldest lady, bent her eyebrows and smiled: "Mother, this kind of joke is not open. Back then, everyone was trying their best to hide it, if it was scattered for a while, and there was an ending where the nest collapsed and the eggs were broken, whose fault was it? ”
Chu Yuxi stared directly at the eldest lady, and she didn't dare to raise her eyes.
Chu Yu continued to say: "Now I understand the truth of being prepared for danger in times of peace, my mother is the mistress of the Chu Mansion, and she will definitely think about the entire Chu family. ”
The eldest lady was stunned on the spot, this Chu Yuxi was really different from the previous Chu Yuxi.
She also wanted to use this to coerce Chu Yuxi, but she didn't want to be rebelled by Chu Yuxi.
"My mother used to treat me well, and my daughter remembered it all. In the future, he will repay twice as much, so that he will fulfill this filial piety. ”
Feeling that Chu Yuxi was holding herself harder, the eldest lady wanted to get rid of it, but Chu Yuxi directly let it go.
"I will definitely think about the entire Chu family, but you must also keep your position in Your Majesty's heart. If you need anything, just go back to the book, and your father and I will be out and about to collect everything you need. ”
"I will definitely live up to my mother's high hopes for me, and I will definitely make the Chu family make a comeback."
She knew that the eldest lady was just a person who was good at stealing and making appearances.
But the matter between her and Leng Yilu is really not a joke, it is related to the life and death of Chu Leng's family. They wouldn't be stupid enough to expose her just to take a breath out of something like this.
……
Lunch was served in Chu Mansion, and Ye Hansi was also considerate and allowed her to sit with her aunt. After lunch, Chu Yulin returned to the Yamen, and Chu Qinglian also followed him back to the Hanlin Academy. Originally, Ye Hansi didn't want to stay for a long time, but because Chu Yu regretted her request, he promised her to sit again.
Chu Yu returned to the backyard, avoided all the maidservants, and left Xiaoqi alone.
"Auntie, what happened between me and Leng Yilu back then?"
Seeing that she couldn't say a word for a long time, Chu Yuxi was a little anxious, "Auntie, this is related to the survival of our two families." I had to know what was going on so I could come up with a solution. ”
Begonia confided everything out at this time, and it took a whole stick of incense.
The Chu family and the Leng family did have a close relationship at the beginning, even if Chu Xiong was later framed and removed from power, then Leng Shuzhi still treated him as well as before. As for Chu Yuxi and Leng Yilu, the two of them met in the market, and they didn't know that there was a second lady in the Chu family at that time. Although Leng Yilu had heard of it, he didn't care about it, and he didn't visit it in person.
Early that morning, Chu Yuxi put the finished jujube paste cake into a food box as usual, sneaked out the back door, and then took it to the market to sell. Xiao Qi was right, she was bullied by the ruffians and hooligans instructed by Chu Qinglian that day, but the person who saved her was not a passing uncle, but Leng Yilu, and that was the first time they met.
Leng Yilu was only a sixteen-year-old young man at the time, where was the opponent of the group of people who fought every day to get enough to eat? The most important thing is that he has a strong temper, and he never says that he is the young master of the Leng family, and only cares about fighting with them. Later, if it hadn't been for the family who came out of the cold house to look for Leng Yilu in time, I don't know what the situation would have been.
Later, as soon as the matter became a big fuss, Chu Qinglian was punished, and Chu Yuxi officially met with Leng Yilu.
In fact, as early as that sunny day, Chu Yuxi had already fallen in love with Leng Yilu at first sight, and so did Leng Yilu.
