Chapter 159: Keep a low profile

Finally sending off the fourth brother, Chu Peijin let out a long sigh of relief, and asked people to put away their things, planning to rest earlier.

"Girl, my subordinate is back!"

The sudden appearance of the night wind startled Chu Peijin, who was in a daze, and she remembered that when she was at the old lady's place before, the night wind had secretly sent a message to her.

After settling down, she hurriedly asked the reason for his disappearance, but Night Wind surprised her very much!

"You are, did you find someone secretly contacting Aunt Wang?"

Night Wind nodded, "On the second night when you asked your subordinates to spy on Aunt Wang, a person quietly entered her house, and the subordinates originally wanted to listen to it, but found that the person seemed to have martial arts, so they didn't dare to get too close. Later, the man came out with just a cup of tea, and his subordinates wanted to follow him to take a look, so he only had time to notify Nian Xue with a password and left! ”

"The subordinates thought that the place where the person went should not be too far, no one expected that he would follow him to Hongzhou, and he didn't come out again when he saw him go in a house, and then his subordinates went to inquire, but it was the house in the name of Hongzhou Governor Kang Wannian, and his subordinates couldn't figure out what the connection was, so they came back to report to you!"

Chu Peijin didn't expect that there would be such a thing behind Aunt Wang, but she didn't know anything about this Aunt Wang, so she had to say to Yefeng: "You have run so far, go and rest for a few days, I have been in the house for the past few days, and it will be fine!" ”

Night Wind didn't dare to respond, but said: "The girl doesn't have to worry about her subordinates, her subordinates only need to rest for half a day, and their subordinates will retire!" "I'm gone!

Although Chu Peijin thought about the news brought back by the night wind, she couldn't understand it, so she only secretly told Ding Xiang to inquire about Aunt Wang's past and ignore it.

Wu'an Houfu has been very busy in recent days, because it is necessary to hold Chu Peixuan and Chu Peiqiong's birthday banquet, decorate the flower hall, put down the stickers, prepare ingredients and utensils, etc., which are a little more than in previous years.

Although Chu Peiqiong knew that she was stained with the light of her second sister, she was still very happy inexplicably. Early in the morning, she came to Aunt Wang's residence, wanting to ask her for advice on how to dress up on her birthday.

Aunt Wang looked at her with faint eyes, took out her beloved jewelry one by one, and gestured on her head, and then asked her happily.

"Auntie, which one do you think is better-looking?"

"Well, Qiong'er looks good in anything!" Aunt Wang smiled slightly and said, "My Qiong'er is so beautiful, how can it not be good-looking?" ”

Chu Peiqiong has always been more relaxed in front of Aunt Wang, she glanced at her mother with disgust, and said, "Auntie is no different from this!" Hurry up and help your daughter take a look, put her away after you have chosen it, and wear it on her birthday. ”

Aunt Wang remembered the bright face of the second girl, Chu Peixuan, and the light dimmed faintly, so she picked out a white magnolia hairpin and said, "My daughter has always liked to be plain, this one is good!" ”

Chu Peiqiong was stunned for a moment, looked down at the jade hairpin inlaid with ruby in her hand, and then looked at the white hosta in her aunt's hand, which was quite unpleasant.

Is my aunt afraid that she will steal the limelight from her second sister? Otherwise, why don't you wear beautiful jewelry to her on festive days?

"Auntie, wouldn't this be too plain? After all, it was her daughter's birthday,......" Chu Peiqiong bit her lip lightly.

Aunt Wang's slender willow eyebrows frowned slightly and glanced at her, "Aunt just doesn't want you to upset your second sister, after all, your eldest aunt has worked so hard to hold a birthday banquet for her, and there is nothing for you here!" So, all you have to do that day is to be invisible as usual! ”

After hearing this, Chu Peiqiong stared at her own mother with wide eyes in disbelief: "Auntie, that's my thirteenth birthday!" It's the first time I've had so many people on my birthday, you...... How can you ...... like this" In the end, Chu Peiqiong couldn't help crying.

She felt that her aunt seemed to have changed a little recently, and she had become less concerned about her and loved her!

Aunt Wang sighed, stretched out her hand to wipe away the tears on Chu Peiqiong's face, and said earnestly: "Qiong'er, auntie, this is all for your good, if your dress that day overshadows your second sister, you may be very happy, but what about in the future?" You don't just live that day, but you will live in the same house with her for a long time in the future, and if you offend her, do you think she will let you go? ”

Chu Peiqiong bit her lip, and then lowered her eyes to look at the pearl hairpin in her hand, and was very unconvinced! Her jewelry is far worse than the second sister, how can a jade hairpin with a mere ruby be compared to the second sister? Isn't my aunt too much?

It's just that she knows that she shouldn't talk to her aunt about these words, and even if she does, her aunt will have more reasons to reject her.

"Auntie, my daughter knows!"

Swallowing unwillingly, Chu Peiqiong silently put the jewelry back into the brocade box and handed it to the personal maid Panchun to collect, and then blessed Aunt Wang in a proper manner, and said, "Auntie rest, my daughter will go back!" ”

Coming happily and coming back sadly, Chu Peiqiong couldn't figure out what she was feeling in her heart at this moment! It's already very unfortunate to be a concubine, and if you add a mother who doesn't love her and loves her, it will be even more unfortunate!

Out of Aunt Wang's courtyard gate, Chu Peiqiong looked around in a daze and didn't know where she was going! Her mind inexplicably flashed the face of her eldest sister Chu Peijin, and her heart moved, and she went to Chu Peijin's Qinglan Courtyard with the maid ring and the brocade box.

Chu Peijin has been writing her business plan without leaving home for the past two days, and with the plan, she can start to arrange it.

When Chu Peiqiong came in, she saw Chu Peijin lying on the table writing and drawing, she walked over and looked at it a few times with curiosity, but she didn't understand.

Chu Peijin raised her eyes to look at her and said with a smile: "It turned out to be the third sister, you sit down first, and I'll be fine right away!" After saying this, he put the things in his hand aside, and then washed his hands, and then went outside to sit with Chu Peiqiong and talk.

Chu Peiqiong's younger sister rarely comes to her on weekdays, and this sudden visit made Chu Peijin feel a little surprised. Cuizhu thoughtfully prepared a few plates of snacks for them and served a pot of tea, and then retreated to the distance and stood still.

"Why is the third sister so free to come to me today? It's your and your second sister's birthday in two days, how are you preparing? ”

Although Chu Peijin did not have a good relationship with the younger sisters of Wu'an Houfu, she did not have the heart to intrigue with them, and since the fight, she had never taken the initiative to provoke any of them. Because of this, she has nothing to do with the third sister who has been in a state of invisibility.

Chu Peiqiong held the tea that Cuizhu served her tightly with both hands, and a trace of hesitation crossed her face. The aunt always asked her to keep a low profile, so as not to be disliked by the second sister, but she didn't want to be an unknown concubine at this rare birthday party, she hoped to meet more noble girls through this banquet, and let others remember her.

Seeing that she was silent for a long time, Chu Peijin couldn't help but be surprised, she looked at Chu Peiqiong and asked with concern, "Third sister, what's wrong?" Could it be that there is something difficult about it? ”

Chu Peiqiong's cheeks were slightly red, followed by even the eye frames turned red, and bean-sized tears fell down her cheeks and leached out an irregular pattern, Chu Peijin was startled!
