When she returned to Chu's house, Mei Xiang was coming out.

"Lady, it's a big deal, Chun Tao's younger brother is gone!"

Chu Nian frowned, and entered the main room of the Vanilla House with Mei Xiang, and at this moment, Chun Tao was kneeling in front of the Taishi chair, bursting into tears.

Seeing Chu Nian walk in, she rubbed her legs, which had been numb for a long time, and hugged the corners of Chu Nian's skirt.

"Lady, lady, please save my brother, his illness has not yet healed, if his mother knows that he is sick, I am afraid that he will be even sicker!"

Chu Nian lowered his eyes, "Where did you go yesterday?" ”

Chun Tao's shoulders trembled, and she hurriedly loosened the corners of Chu Nian's skirt, and her whole body lay on the cold ground, "Yesterday, my mother came with the news that my brother was sick and asked the slave to go back early...... The slave knew that she was wrong, and asked the lady to punish her, but begged the lady to save her brother. ”

Chu Nian's eyes were slightly cold, if it wasn't for Liu Qizai today, how would the old lady punish her next?

Feeling Chu Nian's displeasure, Chun Tao's head was buried lower, "Lady, the slave knows that she is not qualified to ask the lady to save her brother, but please ask the lady to instruct, as long as the lady is willing to help save the brother, even if it is to pay this life, the slave is willing!" ”

Mei Xiang leaned into Chu Nian's ear, "Lady, Mrs. Liu sent someone to say that after Chun Tao left yesterday, a strange person had entered the ancestral hall. ”

Madame Liu is not a stupid person, she is more afraid of Xiao Chen's comeback than anyone else, so when Chu Nian sent Chun Tao to keep an eye on Xiao Chen, Madame Liu did the same, but she did it more secretly.

Xiao Chen's family has always been stared at by Mrs. Liu and her, how can she free up her hands to support the spring peach? Don't...... Chu Nian's eyes narrowed slightly, there were outsiders meddling in the affairs of the Zhenning Hou Mansion? Why? To deal with her?

Chu Nian couldn't think of when she had a grudge with someone in this life, although Chu Nian was not kind and deceivable, she was by no means a rude and willful master, let alone offended anyone, and her qualifications to associate with upper-class people were monopolized by Xiao Chen's two daughters.

Could it be that she has been too ostentatious lately, so she has been targeted?

Suddenly, Chu Nian remembered a certain possibility, her hands clenched under her big sleeves, and now, there are only two people who are so concerned about her movements, the crown prince, and Liu Qi, who always wants to test her.

She asked herself that she was very calm with Ming Xiu, except that she was a ghost of the Su family, what she knew and what she shouldn't know, Ming Xiu already knew.

That can only be Liu Qi, yesterday Liu Qi also swore that she would go hunting, and it happened that when the dark three went to look for him, he was about to go out.

Is it such a coincidence? Unless, he knew that Xiao Chen's wanted to harm her.

Mei Xiang and Chun Tao stood on Chu Nian's side, and the other was lying in front of Chu Nian, but they were both aware of the killing intent emanating from their own lady, and their faces were pale.

"Lady......" Mei Xiang called softly.

Chu Nian came back to his senses, and the two maids were staring at him intently, looking at Chu Nian, and Chun Tao immediately lowered his head.

Chu Nian sighed and reached out to help Chun Tao, "When did your brother disappear?" ”

"Yesterday, yesterday the slave maid went out of the house, and the mother said that the younger brother went out to buy candy and eat, and he didn't come back, and the slave and maid also looked for a day, so they delayed returning home......

Spring Tao hung her head wistfully.

Chu Nian took a deep breath, waved his hand at Mei Xiang and said, "Tell the dark three to investigate this matter, and the dark four to spy on Liu Qi, be careful not to make a noise." ”

Mei Xiang took the order and left, and Chun Tao suddenly knelt on the ground again, "Thank you, Miss!" ”

A few days later, it was the day when Liu Qi and Chu Nian made an appointment to go hunting, and Chu Nian went to Chu Yuanlang in the name of being a lonely man and a widow who was not good for his reputation, and Chu Yuanlang was also happy to accompany him.

Liu Qi took people to wait at the door of Chu's house early in the morning.

When he arrived at the hunting ground, Chu Nian knew that the owner of the hunting ground that Liu Qi said was none other than Shen Duan.

And this can be called the first official meeting with Shen Dui after being reborn.

He was still sitting in a wheelchair, and when he saw Liu Qi coming over with Chu Yuanlang and Chu Nian from a distance, a slight light flashed in his eyes.

"I've seen Lord Shen." Chu Yuanlang pulled Chu Nian to salute together.

Liu Qi on the side seemed to be in a hurry to introduce, "Brother Shen, this is Chu Sanniang." ”

Shen Dui's gaze stayed on Chu Nian for a moment, and then fell on Chu Yuanlang on the side, "I have long heard that Chu Yuanlang is a talent, and today I can see it." ”

Chu Yuanlang said with a detached smile: "Where, where." ”

On the way here, the brother and sister shared a carriage, and Chu Yuanlang also came to ask Chu Nian, saying that he had just entered Beijing and didn't know much about many things, and asked him if he should make friends with Liu Qi.

Chu Nian reminded him, Liu Qida can make a superficial friendship, but if he meets Shen Jiayuanlang, don't have a deep friendship.

She clearly understands that Shen Dui is a villain who stabs in the back!

Seeing that Shen Duan didn't seem to be waiting to see him at the moment, Chu Nian didn't have the habit of sticking a hot face to a cold buttocks, and the salute was gone, so he stood aside honestly.

At this moment, there was a galloping sound of horses' hooves not far behind them, followed by a cheerful shout.

"Big brother! Brother Liu! ”

A steed was a soft and glutinous person, with a pair of big watery eyes dripping around, looking at Shen Du and Liu Qi, she was extremely happy.

Shen Ruan, Shen Dui's biological sister.

Chu Nian frowned, she didn't have a good impression of this sister-in-law in her previous life, whether it was secretly framing her countless times to make her ugly, or her attitude towards the world. The two brothers and sisters of the Shen family are not good at stubble.

She doesn't have too deep love for Shen Dui, just because of her sympathy in matters of power and conspiracy. Shen Dui knew her too well, even if it was a casual look from her, it was enough for Shen Dui to understand the deep meaning.

Now, there is only a thousand knives of hatred left!

Seeing his sister's such an unruly appearance, Shen Du frowned, and his narrow eyes narrowed slightly, but he was serious.

"How can a girl's family be in a hurry? Get off the horse quickly, and let others look out of place! ”

Only then did Shen Ruan notice Chu Yuanlang and Chu Nian standing on the side, and muttered and jumped off the horse, "It's just a wild seed and a waste, what's there to be afraid of." ”

But he didn't even want to give the two sisters and brothers one more look.

When Chu Yuanlang heard what she said, his face froze, and even Liu Qi on the side became embarrassed.

Shen Du scolded again: "Don't be rude! ”

She reluctantly responded, and glared at the Chu family siblings by the way, "Got it." ”

Chu Nian didn't care much about Shen Ruan's opinion, but it didn't mean that Chu Yuanlang wasn't, Liu Qi on the side looked at Chu Yuanlang's darkening complexion, and hurriedly played a round game: "Ruan Er is still young, Yuanlang and Sanniang don't be surprised." ”

Chu Yuanlang hung his head and was silent, Chu Nian took his reaction into his eyes, and turned his eyes to look at Liu Qi, "If I'm not mistaken, Shen Erniang is a year older than the little girl?" ”

Unexpectedly, Chu Nian would intervene sideways at this time, Liu Qi's face froze, while Shen Duan turned his eyes and narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Yes, don't call me sister, I can't stand it!"

After being yelled at twice by his brother because of these two wild seeds from Zhenninghou Mansion, Shen Ruan's hostility towards Chu Nian had already risen to a higher level.

Chu Nian rolled his eyes and looked at Shen Duan meaningfully, "Lord Shen's family style is like this?" Could it be that the rule of the Shen family is that the younger sister never puts the eldest brother in her eyes? In this way, our Zhenning Hou Mansion is still quite educated. ”

After that, ignoring Shen Duan's mixed complexion, Chu Nian pulled up Chu Yuanlang's sleeve robe, "General Liu, my younger brother is still young and ignorant, I'm afraid I'm a little tired today, so I won't accompany the two adults." ”

When Chu Yuanlang came back to his senses, he was pulled away by Chu Nian, and Liu Qi hurriedly chased him out.

Shen Ruan looked at Chu Nian's back as he left, and muttered hatefully: "It's just the Zhenning Marquis Mansion, what is there to be arrogant." ”

"Shut up, don't think you've lost enough face?"

"Brother! It's clear that the woman kept saying that I was uneducated, but you scolded me instead! ”

"You! …… Go back to the house and think about it for three days! ”

Shen Du looked at Chu Nian's back with indulgent eyes, and suddenly pursed a pair of thin lips, "Next time you see that woman, don't provoke." ”

……

The exchange of glances with Shen Dui caused Chu Nian's chest to feel stuffy for a while.

She pressed her mood, and at this time, Liu Qi had already caught up.

"Sanniang! Sanniang! "Liu Qi Huiwu, although Chu Nian and Chu Yuanlang walked in a hurry, it was only a few leaps of Liu Qi's kung fu, and Chu Nian's cuffs were pulled by someone.

"Huh-" He breathed a long sigh of relief, looked at Chu Nian seriously and said, "Sanniang is not angry, Ruan Er was spoiled by the Shen family, so she developed such a temperament, I will compensate you on her behalf." ”

As he spoke, he leaned over and saluted, as if sincerely.

Chu Nian looked at him coldly, and the corners of his mouth sneered, "In what capacity did General Liu apologize?" Shen Erniang's other brother? ”

Liu Qi just straightened up, and his face suddenly froze.

Chu Yuanlang seemed to have a clear understanding of the situation, he knew that the Zhenning Marquis Mansion could not offend Liu Qi now, so he gently tugged Chu Nian's sleeve, "Third sister, it's just a few words, besides, this kind of thing is not expected by General Liu." ”

Liu Qi went down the steps of Chu Yuanlang, "Third lady, this time I didn't entertain well, why don't I invite the two of you to get together at Zhenyulou now to apologize?" ”

The words made Liu Qi's position clear, but this time he was not on Shen Ruan's side.

Liu Qi lowered her posture, and Chu Nian didn't need to disturb her mood because of Shen Ruan, but she really didn't have Yaxing to play anymore now, so she said with a cold face: "In the future, the little girl will still provide General Liu with the help he needs, but forget it for the time being, the little girl is not feeling well, and I am afraid that she will not be able to accompany General Liu." ”

Seeing that the matter was irreparable, Liu Qi felt a trace of inexplicable remorse in his heart, so he had to say in frustration: "Then I'll send the two back." ”

Chu Nian didn't speak, Chu Yuanlang said with a smile: "Thank you General Liu." ”

After returning to the Chu family, Chu Yuanlang said helplessly: "Why should the third sister offend the Shen family for me." ”

Chu Nian walked in front and didn't look back, "You are the Yuanlang of the Zhenning Hou Mansion, my Chu Nian's younger brother, no matter whether you can inherit your father's position in the future, you are also the face of the Zhenning Hou Mansion today, and you must not let people think that you are weak and bullying." ”

Chu Yuanlang looked stunned, then lowered his head thoughtfully, Chu Nian's mood was a little lighter, he looked back at Chu Yuanlang and said, "Please also ask my brother to go back and thank Aunt Liu for me." ”

"What's the ......" Before Chu Yuanlang could ask, he saw Chu Nian's jumping figure not entering the herb house, so he had to smile helplessly: "It's a year older than me, but it's still a little female doll." ”
