Chapter 102: Wishful Thinking

Xu Jin stood on the side, looking at Chu Ji with a calm expression, and actually felt a little envious.

It seems that she never panics, and she is not forced to say anything to refute like herself.

"Miss Chu, let's go sit in the teahouse." Xu Jin took the initiative to step forward.

Chu Ji glanced at Yun Songyue and Yang Ying lightly, and saluted Xu Jin: "Thank you for the invitation, but I want to walk around." ”

"Then I'll be with you." Xu Jin said again.

Chu Xi saw that she couldn't shake it off, so she had to respond.

Yang Ying saw that Chu Xi was leaving, so she hurriedly stepped forward to stop: "You wait for a while." ”

Chu Xi stopped and looked at her: "Miss Yang, what else is there?" ”

Yang Ying thought for a while before raising her eyes to look at her: "Since your mother has severed relations with the Yang Mansion, then I hope you will not have anything to do with the Yang Mansion in the future, and it is best not to come to the Yang family for the rest of your life, and not to see the Yang family." ”

Listening to her domineering and unreasonable words, Lu Ya was a little annoyed: "My young lady is on the street, is it possible to find out in advance whether there is a Yang family on the street?" If so, will my young lady avoid it immediately? ”

Yang Ying pouted: "It's better to be like this"

Lu Ya was so angry that she wanted to say again, but Chu Xi stopped her and only looked at Yang Ying: "Even though my mother has severed the relationship with the Yang Mansion, I still have a piece of the Yang family's blood in my body, how can I not see the Yang family?" I, Chu Xi, sat upright and sat upright, I am not ashamed to see anyone in this world, if Miss Yang wants me to never be able to see the Yang family on the street, then buy this street. ”

Yang Ying saw Chu Xi, who did not give in at all, and was so angry that she raised her hand and pointed at her: "You, you"

Xu Jin also walked over: "Miss Yang can now speak on behalf of the Yang family?" I'll ask General Yang if that's what he meant. ”

Yang Ying saw that there was another helper, and she didn't know what to say in annoyance, so she turned around and ran away.

Yun Songyue saw her running away, and she had to look at Chu Xi with disdain: "What a future princess, so sharp-tongued, I don't know how to spare people, I don't know if Mrs. Hou and the prince know it." ”

"This is even more boring for you, the young lady of the Yun family who can't fight with the Hou Mansion." A sarcastic voice came, Chu Xi listened to the familiar voice and looked over, and at a glance saw Yun Songyi in an aqua blue wide-sleeved long dress, she looked more like a scholarly lady in her dress today, with a complicated bun and a strand hanging down in front of her on each side. And with a few golden steps, thin powder, the whole person looks dignified and gentle, but the naughtiness in his eyes can't be hidden.

Everyone else couldn't help laughing, Yun Songyue blushed, turned her head to look at Yun Songyi, who had just gotten off the carriage, and said with a smile: "Yo, why didn't the second sister come here on horseback today, and she also learned to ride in the carriage, could it be that the sun came out in the west?" ”

Yun Songyi came with all the money: "The daughter raised by the Yan family, Wen can become a martial artist, why should I stick to your gaze and ride a horse?" ”

Yun Songyi's words made Yun Songyue's face turn red again, and sweat broke out on her back: "You, you will have to go back to Yunfu sooner or later, but you mother who was divorced"

"Yes Heli, Yunfu didn't even teach you this common sense? And leaving and leaving are two different things, and my mother is living very well now, eating fast and reciting Buddha on the mountain, and often going down the mountain to give alms, what, do you feel dissatisfied? Yun Songyi smiled lightly.

Chu Xi watched it with relish on the side, and after not seeing her for a few days, Yun Songyi's temperament was really getting more and more interesting. It was bold before, but now it's bold and there is still a bit of cunning hidden in it, and I don't know who to learn from.

"You slandered Yunfu, but you still owe it"

"Do you want to get a doctor? It's not easy to use your ears at a young age, which word did I slander Yunfu? I've been talking about your shortcomings. Yun Songyi interrupted her, Chu Xi looked at her like this, and suddenly remembered that Zheng Yun seemed to be like this, his mouth was poisonous, and no one could compare to her.

Everyone laughed, and Yun Songyue was so angry that her face was red and her neck was thick: "You wait for me!" She threw down the sentence and turned and ran away.

Yun Songyi couldn't help but snort, and turned her head to look at Chu Xi: "Sister Xi'er, is it just right for me to come." ”

Chu Xi smiled: "Why did you come down today, and you are still dressed so dignified?" ”

Yun Songyi blushed suddenly, and hurriedly turned his head over: "Ah, the weather is just right today, Sister Ji'er, let's go to Jinghua Building, I have set a location." ”

Chu Ji saw that she came prepared, so she also nodded.

Xu Jin saw that the two of them didn't mention themselves at all, and hurriedly said: "Can I go together, it's really boring in the palace." ”

Chu Xi glanced at Yun Songyi, and Yun Songyi bit her lip slightly: "I'm afraid it won't work today, because"

"Okay, next time." Xu Jin said busily, as long as she can make friends with Chu Xi and let her help herself, she can ignore these small things.

"Good!" Yun Songyi responded happily, Xu Jin saw this, and then turned his head to look at Chu Ji: "By the way, Miss Chu, Ming'er, I will go to the Prime Minister's Mansion, the prince asked me to take care of the affairs of the second Miss Chu's Chu family, Ming'er, I will go to meet and discuss with them." Although the old lady just died, it is a little inappropriate for me to be in such a hurry, but the marriage of the prince is also a holy decree, if Miss Chu Er wants to postpone her filial piety, I should also be prepared in advance. Xu Jin seemed to be explaining.

Chu Ji bowed slightly: "Okay, I'll tell the second sister." ”

"Hmm." Xu Jin bowed his head, and then turned on the carriage back to the palace.

After she left, Yun Songyi arrived: "Sister Ji'er, why do I think this Xu Jin is weird?" ”

"She now has no place to rely on her mother's family, and King Xiaoyao is not a person who loves children, so she naturally feels depressed and wants to find someone to rely on as soon as possible." Chu Xi smiled faintly, turned his head and looked at the flashy carriage behind Yun Songyi: "You went over in the same carriage with me?" ”

Yun Songyi followed her gaze and looked at her carriage, and smiled: "Okay." ”

After getting into the carriage, Yun Songyi leaned on Chu Xi coquettishly: "Sister Xi'er, I asked my grandfather to do what you explained before, but there has been no news." ”

"Hmm." Chu Xi responded lightly, she naturally knew that Yun Songyi would take care of her affairs, and it was normal that there was no news all the time, who would have thought that the little girl was actually hidden by Han Min herself.

"Hey, my grandfather doesn't know why, he actually dragged me to meet your cousin all day long, I saw that your cousin likes plain light, so I dressed myself up rich." Yun Songyi sighed.

Chu Xi looked at her: "You didn't seem to have thought about deliberately making anyone dislike you before, Yi'er, you have a sweetheart." ”

"Sweetheart?" Yun Songyi sat up straight suddenly, turned his head to look outside the carriage: "What kind of sweetheart is that." After a while, he waved his hand again: "Oh, no, no, no, I can't be a sweetheart." ”

Seeing her like this, Lu Tan couldn't laugh well, this is clearly someone in her heart.

"That's right." Yun Songyi turned his head to look at Chu Xi: "Your grandmother died, you shouldn't be too sad." "After all, what kind of person is Old Madam Chu, she has also heard what Green Sandalwood and Green Buds have said. If she is herself, such a person dies, she may be happy.

Chu Xiwan'er: "It's okay. ”

"That's good, I was going to go down the mountain that day, but my grandfather stopped me." Yun Songyi said in frustration.

Chu Xi only comforted that it was okay, after all, the Yan family was a big family, and it was easy not to make mistakes, and it was right for Elder Yan to protect himself.

The two were talking, and after a while, they arrived at the door of Jinghua Building.

Jinghua Building is still so lively, the young ladies and sons who come and go are still full of smiles, it seems that there are more and more homeless people outside, and they are not in their eyes at all.

Yun Songyi did not lead Chu Ji to the second floor this time, but went directly to the back of Jinghua Building.

"I also just knew, it turned out that there is a small lake behind the Jinghua Building, and I can't see it on the second floor, and even better, there is a conservatory next to the small lake, which has a warm stove, and the utensils for piano, chess, calligraphy and painting should be complete." Yun Songyi pulled Chu Xi along a cobblestone path all the way forward, and after walking about a hundred or ten meters, he saw someone waving at them.

Lu Tan looked at it fixedly, and his eyes widened: "Isn't this bearded General Zheng Yun Zheng?" He was let out? ”

Chu Xi knew that since he had followed the prince in the open, the prince would naturally not let such a general still be locked up in prison, but he was really low-key.

"Come, hurry up, I've prepared the boat, burned the charcoal, and found two pots of high-quality Biluochun, let's raft on the lake while roasting meat." Zheng Yun smiled heartily.

Lu Ya covered his lips and chuckled: "This General Zheng is really an elegant person, talented and beautiful people are reciting poems on the lake, but he is good, he is a good tea with barbecue." ”

Yun Songyi also bent his eyes: "We are all beautiful women, and we have no talents, so this half-hung boating lake is served with barbecue." ”

Chu Xi also laughed, and when a few people approached, they saw Zheng Yun wearing a cyan robe, wearing a gray coat on his body, sword eyebrows and sideburns, and his eyes were sharp and clear, but this beard was the only one

"Ladies, please come inside." Zheng Yun said with a smile.

Yun Song Yidao was not polite, got on the boat first, and then pulled Chu Xi up.

looked around, looked at a small pot of cut meat placed outside, and squinted at Zheng Yun: "Big beard, why did you prepare such meat, where is there enough to eat." ”

"I know you have a lot of food, and all the delicious food is in the cabin." Zheng Yun said casually, jumped on the boat, picked up the bamboo pole that supported the boat, and propped the boat to the middle of the lake in a few clicks.

Chu Xi looked at the boat, it was not big, but it was just right for the five of them to sit down.

On the deck there are five small stools and a charcoal brazier that has been burning vigorously, and on the other side is a long coffee table with a pot of unopened orchids on it, which is also a bit elegant to look at.

"Where the meat is, I'll take it"

"Don't, auntie, where are you sitting, I have to cry when I turn around and bump my nose, I won't coax." Zheng Yun said as he neatly moved out the contents inside.

Chu Ji looked at him and raised her eyebrows slightly.

Yun Songyi sat down obediently and looked at the lake with his chin propped up: "Today, the lake water seems to be exceptionally clear. Yun Songyi said with a smile.

"Well, it's pretty clean." Chu Xi smiled faintly.

Yun Songyi was still immersed in his own world: "Ah, there are fish! She saw that there was movement in the lake again, and hurried to the boat.

Zheng Yun happened to come out: "Don't fall the meat buns, I don't have any clothes to change for you when I turn around." ”

Yun Songyi turned around and grimaced at him, but accidentally stepped on the long skirt he was wearing today, and the whole person fell into the lake on his back.

Green sandalwood is about to move. was held down by Chu Xi, and then saw a figure flash quickly, and Yun Songyi was also fished up before falling into the lake.

Yun Songyi's eyes on Zheng Yun were deep and bright, and they seemed to hide the sea inside, which fascinated her.

Fascinated?

Yun Songyi hurriedly came back to his senses and struggled out of his arms.

Zheng Yun saw her crimson little round face, pursed her lips and smiled, turned her head and continued to move things.

Lu Tan was busy covering his heart and sighed: "The old man's girl's heart"

Green Bud burst out laughing: "Green Sandalwood, but do you want the girl to arrange a husband for you?" ”

"Miss is not married, what am I anxious about." Green sandalwood smiled.

Yun Songyi obediently followed behind Zheng Yun to move things, and Zheng Yun muttered as he walked: "Don't follow me, you're going to fall when you turn around." ”

"This thing is dirty, don't touch it"

"Your stuff is heavy, be careful of being strangled"

"This thing doesn't look good, don't take it"

Yun Songyi let him say that he still did his own thing. followed him back and forth, and said as he walked: "I should be a woman who walks the rivers and lakes in the future, I am so capable and neat, when I go out of the rivers and lakes, I have to mix up the wind and water!" ”

Zheng Yun grinned: "When you go out of the rivers and lakes, the rivers and lakes will swallow you, there are no bones left, you are a small meat bun, you don't want to thread needles and embroider all day long, but think about fighting and killing, see if you can marry in the future!" ”

"Crow's beak!" Yun Songyi sneered.

"Hmph, it's none of my business if you don't get married anyway" Before Zheng Yun finished speaking, he was stepped on fiercely, and his facial features were twisted together.

"Let you crow's mouth, hum, if I really can't get married, I'll eat and drink in your house for nothing!" After Yun Songyi finished speaking proudly, he hurriedly ran towards Chu Xi with a red face.

Chu Xi looked at her: "Your sweetheart can be here?" ”

Yun Songyi understood when she saw her. Coughed lightly: "Probably in." ”

Chu Ji laughed: "When did you pick up Zheng Yun and shave your beard." ”

"Tomorrow, I'm passing by the flower market today, and I just happened to see a guinea pig seller." Yun Songyi smiled sheepishly, Zheng Yun timidly looked at Yun Songyi coming over: "Meat buns, why are you so heavy, if you go down this foot, my foot will be wasted."

"You" Yun Songyi was so annoyed that she wanted to step on him again, but Zheng Yun easily dodged him.

The two of them were happy and noisy in the afternoon, and when it was about to get dark, Chu Xi got into the carriage and prepared to go back.

Taking advantage of Yun Songyi's absence, Zheng Yun quietly approached Chu Xi's side and stuffed something for her: "Young lady, this should be given to him quickly." ”

"What's that?"

"Antidote." Zheng Yun whispered: "I've been stared at, so I can only come up with such a way to give things to you." ”

Chu Xi frowned: "You use Yi'er"

Zheng Yun's face sank, and it was indescribably complicated: "You go back first, give him the antidote quickly, I can't tell you more, I'm afraid of causing you trouble." ”

"What about Yi'er. Have you ever thought about her? Chu Xi was a little annoyed.

Zheng Yun sighed slightly: "Don't worry, I won't let her have anything to do." After that, Yun Songyi came over with a smile with Lu Tan: "Big beard, what are you talking about my sister-in-law!" ”

"The little girl's family doesn't need to know." Zheng Yundao.

Yun Songyi was annoyed and wanted to step on his instep again, but Zheng Yun dodged and dodged: "You three-legged cat kung fu is still going to be a heroine, I think you should go back and practice for another two years." Zheng Yun ran away with a smile, and Yun Songyi stomped his feet: "Big beard, you wait for me!" After saying that, he turned his head to Chu Xi: "Sister Xi'er, I'll come out with you next time." ”

Looking at Yun Songyi, whose face was flushed because of laughing all the time, Chu Xi frowned slightly: "Yi'er, have you thought about what kind of person you will marry in the future?" ”

"What kind of people?" Yun Songyi thought about it, and her face turned red again: "It's okay if you're not handsome, the most important thing is to spoil me and get used to me, and you can play with me." ”

"What about the others?" Chu Xi asked again.

"Anything else, what else?" Yun Songyi was puzzled.

Looking at the innocent and innocent Yun Songyi, Chu Xi chuckled: "You are still young, you are not in a hurry to get married." It would be nice to think about it in a few years. ”

"In a few years?"

Without waiting for Yun Songyi to think clearly, Chu Xi's carriage had already left.

Yun Songyi frowned slightly, and turned his head to look at Zheng Yun: "Are you trying to lie to me?" ”

"What can I lie to you, is it money or sex?" Zheng Yun looked at her and said.

Yun Songyi was so angry that he wanted to hit someone again, but Zheng Yun ran away all at once.

Yun Songyi snorted, lifted her skirt and went back angrily, but there was always a smile in her eyes.

After she left, Zheng Yun walked out from the place where she had just disappeared, looking at her back, not knowing what to think.

When he returned to Chu Mansion, he asked someone to pass the news to Chu Zhenzhen, and then went back to Zhujin Pavilion, but someone was waiting early.

At the door of the Zhujin Pavilion, the second lady seemed to be panting slightly, and when she saw Chu Xi coming, she hurriedly said excitedly: "Oh, what a coincidence, I am about to come over, and you just happened to come back." ”

Chu Xi stepped forward to salute: "Second aunt, is there something wrong with looking for a concubine?" ”

"It's nothing, I just want to come and talk to you." The second lady hurriedly said, and then looked back at the next person: "Why don't you bring everything up?" ”

Chu Xi raised her eyebrows slightly, looked at a large box they carried over, and couldn't help asking, "This is"

"Oh, here are some clothes I prepared for you, didn't the second aunt say that she would give you a box of clothes when she came last time." The second lady laughed happily.

Chu Xi only said that her icing on the cake was very good, but she did not refuse her overtures: "Second aunt, let's talk." ”

"Good, good." The second lady responded repeatedly.

After staying inside and sitting firmly, Chu Xi knew the true purpose of the second aunt's coming. It turned out that the second old man Chu Kan returned to Beijing to report on his work this time, and he would stay for about two months, so she planned to take her only concubine over to live for a while, and by the way, let Chu Kan take more out to meet those dignitaries, and it was best to find a golden beetle son-in-law.

When Chu Xi heard this, she naturally couldn't say no, but said: "I usually go out less, my sister comes over, if there is a chance, you can naturally go out together." ”

"I'm relieved to have your words, I told Zhen Zhen before, Zhen Zhen doesn't seem to be very happy, so I'm still a little worried." The second aunt laughed: "Don't worry, my Rou'er is very well-behaved and sensible, so I promise not to cause trouble for you." ”

Chu Ji looked at the second lady's temperament and knew that this Chu Rou should also be a sleek and forbearant character.

"It's not too early, so I won't stay long, and I'll come back to talk to you later." The second lady didn't stay long, for fear that Chu Ji wouldn't like it if she stayed for a long time.

Chu Xi got up and sent her out of the door to breathe a sigh of relief.

Xiao Fu'er hurriedly opened the box to see the clothes inside, and then put it away: "None of these clothes can compare to the ones sent by Ruyifang." ”

Chu Xiwaner: "The place where the second uncle works is not rich, and they have not saved much silver over the years, so it is good to have this intention." ”

Xiao Fu'er smiled: "Yes, whatever the young lady says, it is what it is." ”

"Alright, let's get ready for dinner." Chu Xi chuckled and said, the two days of leisure and comfort made her feel comfortable, but the thought of going to see Jiang Fan in two days made her feel a little headache.

After sending the girls down, Chu Ji returned to the room, looked at Lin Qingyu, who was still lying on the bed and was asleep, and slowly stepped forward: "Are you awake?" ”

When Lin Qingyu heard Chu Xi's voice, his eyelids moved, and he immediately opened his eyes, and when he saw that it was her, he immediately laughed: "I'm back." ”

Chu Xi looked at him sleeping for so long and his eyes were still bloodshot, and took out the medicine that Zheng Yun gave him from his sleeve: "This is what Zheng Yun asked me to give you, saying that it is the antidote." ”

"Well, it's used to detoxify the poison before." Lin Qingyu bowed slightly, barely stood up, and swallowed the pill: "This medicine is rare, and only Zheng Yun can find a way to get it." ”

Chu Xi was surprised, what Wuji Pavilion couldn't get, a second-rank general who was stationed at the border all the year round could get it, isn't it very strange.

"Who is Zheng Yun staring at?" Chu Xi still couldn't help but ask.

Lin Qingyu turned his head to look at Chu Xi: "He told you this?" ”

"He's using Yir." Chu Xi still felt annoyed when she thought of this.

Lin Qingyu raised the corners of his lips helplessly. Holding Chu Yun's hand: "Zheng Yun has a last resort, using the little girl of the Yun family, I'm afraid it is not intentional, but Zheng Yun seems to have never been so close to that woman for so many years." ”

"There are no women at the border to get close to." Chu Xi retorted lightly, but Lin Qingyu laughed: "Then you have some misunderstanding of the border defense, every year the imperial court will send a lot of female dependents in the mansion of the criminal ministers, Zheng Yunai is the biggest official of the border guard, do you think he has no chance to get close to women?" ”

Chu Xi looked at him who was overwhelmed with joy lightly: "So what? ”

Seeing Chu Ji like this, Lin Qingyu immediately returned to seriousness: "Therefore, in addition to Zheng Yun's unintentional use, he may have thoughts that he hasn't even discovered yet. However, you can persuade the little girl of the Yun family to stay away from him, there will be no result. ”

Chu Xi looked at him lightly: "Then you persuade Zheng Yun to stay away from Yi'er." ”

Lin Qingyu turned his head to look at her, and the two of them were silent for two seconds, and they both laughed: "These things are up to them, maybe there may be results." It saves the good marriage of others. ”

Chu Xi'er, Xiao Fu'er's voice came from outside: "Miss, it's time to eat." ”

Chu Ji responded softly, and looked at Lin Qingyu, who was tired: "Lin Fu has always been there?" ”

"Well, he's gone while you're there, and he'll come over as soon as you're gone, don't worry." Lin Qingyu enjoyed Chu Xi's care and said with a smile.

Chu Xi bowed slightly, and then walked out.

Outside, Aunt Fu prepared a table full of dishes, all of which Chu Xi would hold two more chopsticks on weekdays.

"Miss, you've lost weight in the past few days, but you need to eat more." Aunt Fu said with a smile.

Chu Xi chuckled, let them set up a small table next to them, and ate dinner together.

After dinner, Aunt Fu said, "Miss, my nephew said that my son would come to you early in the morning to say goodbye." ”

Chunzhi, who was helping to clean up on the side, suddenly turned red, and Chu Xi smiled and bowed: "Okay." ”

Aunt Fu looked at the spring branches on the side, and also bent her eyes.

Early the next morning. Aunt Fu's nephew came early, several girls covered their mouths and smiled, Chu Xi glanced at Chunzhi: "You don't have to go out to serve today, just rest in it." ”

Seeing that Chu Ji was considerate, Chun Zhi hurriedly saluted gratefully: "Miss Xie." ”

"Green Shoots Little Fu'er will come with me to have a look." Chu Xi got down from the warm couch, put down the teacup, turned around and went to the flower hall outside.

Aunt Fu's nephew's name is Fu Liangsheng, and when he heard that his aunt told him about the girl he saw that day, he packed up and rushed over early in the morning.

Hearing the movement outside, Fu Liangsheng hurriedly lowered his head and stood respectfully to the side, only to see a pair of pale pink embroidered shoes with pearls slowly walking in front of him, and the slightly swaying aqua skirt made him lower his head again.

"Are you Fu Liangsheng?"

Fu Liangsheng heard a slightly cool voice coming, and hurriedly said: "Yes, Fu Liangsheng, grass people, I have seen the eldest lady!" ”

Fu Liangsheng was a little nervous, but his attitude was not sycophant, which made Chu Ji very impressed.

"Get up." Chu Xi smiled faintly. Seeing Fu Liangsheng look up, he saw that it was a young man with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, his eyes were upright, but his body was a little weaker, although his clothes were simple but very clean and crisp, and his hands in front of him could also be seen to be clean: "Came here alone today?" ”

"Yes." Fu Liangsheng said, quietly looked at Chu Xi's side, and saw his sister and a girl with a face, and did not see the Chunzhi girl she saw that day, didn't she take a fancy to herself? Also, the girls around such a big family can be worth the young lady of an ordinary small family.

Fu Liangsheng was full of doubts, but he didn't know that behind the screen on the side, there were two cats.

Lu Tan gently pushed the spring branch that refused to look at it, and whispered: "Look, but he is a really handsome person." ”

Chunzhi's face turned even redder, but he couldn't resist his curiosity and took a look. But just by looking at it, I felt that the roots of my ears were going to be red.

Chu Xi looked at the rustling sound behind the screen, and chuckled, she knew that Lu Tan had such a temperament, and she would definitely be unable to bear to pull the spring branch to see.

"I heard that you want to ask to marry the girl next to me." Chu Xi said directly.

When Fu Liangsheng heard this, his face turned red, and he was busy and worried: "The grass people were able to get a glimpse of the demeanor of the Chunzhi girl that day, and they felt that they would marry such a woman in this life, so they dared to ask my aunt to talk to the young lady, and asked the young lady not to blame the Chunzhi girl, they are all grass people who are abrupt, so that's why "

"Hmm." Chu Xi saw that he was panicked, so he responded: "But I have a request." Chu Xi said lightly.

"Miss, please speak." Fu Liangsheng said busily.

Chu Ji looked at him: "You have to make a note with me, no matter if you are rich or poor in this life, no matter how many concubines you marry, no matter whether Chunzhi can give birth to a man for your family after marrying, she will be the wife of your Fu family in this life." You must never treat her badly, or else"

"Yes, the grass people do!" Fu Liangsheng said busily.

Chu Xi laughed at this time: "Very good, Chunzhi, don't you come out to write a note?" ”

Chunzhi's eyes were slightly wet, she was both warm and grateful for Chu Xi's words, she was an orphan, thinking that it would be God's grace to marry a good family, but this young lady still thought about her like this.

Fu Liangsheng saw a girl in Tsing Yi walking out from behind the screen, and looked, isn't this the Chunzhi girl he had been thinking about for a long time.

Fu Liangsheng blushed and lowered his head, and made a gesture with her again.

Green Sandalwood burst out laughing: "Nerd." ”

Chunzhi pursed her lips with a smile and wrote a note: "Fu Gongzi, please"

Fu Liangsheng looked at the beautiful handwriting, and his heart became more and more happy, and he hurriedly signed and pressed his handprint.

"Very well, you go back and prepare the dowry. Let your mother come over and discuss the marriage with Aunt Fu. Chu Ji is like the two of them who are just beginning to fall in love, and they also feel sweet in their hearts, how good it is to have such a day, there is no intrigue, no painstaking management.

Chu Xi enjoyed it like this, and when Fu Liangsheng left, Lu Tan pushed a handful of spring branches: "We will all be your mother's family in the future, what do you want me to give you as a makeup gift?" Is mung bean cake okay? ”

Xiao Fu'er laughed out loud: "Look at you stingy." ”

Lu Tan smiled and clutched his purse: "Etiquette is light and affection is heavy."

A few people laughed, and the morning passed again.

Xu Jin came in the afternoon, and when she came, her eyes were still a little swollen, and the dark bruises on her neck were faintly visible. Chu Zhenzhen led her to sit in the pavilion and sneered: "The prince asked you to take care of my marriage?" Aren't you crazy? ”

Xu Jin's expression was faint: "If the second lady doesn't believe it, she can ask." I came here this time, did I want to ask the second lady, is the wedding going on as usual, or is it waiting for you to keep filial piety for the old lady? ”

Chu Zhenzhen's face sank: "The emperor's holy decree cannot be violated, and my grandmother also committed suicide because of her sins." So let's do it as usual, and besides, didn't Concubine Xu also marry into the palace when the Xu family was beheaded? ”

Chu Zhenzhen's words were like a sharp knife slammed into Xu Jin's heart, Xu Jin's face was slightly pale, and he opened his mouth slightly and panted.

"What's the matter, Concubine Xu is unwell?" Chu Zhenzhen looked at her, a luxurious wide-sleeved robe, a piping gold silk cloak on the outside, and Zhu Hai on her head was even more noble, she couldn't help but be a little jealous, and when she saw the scar on her neck again, she smiled and said, "Yo, what's the matter with the neck injury of Concubine Xu?" Could it be that he didn't serve the prince well and was pinched by the prince? ”

Xu Jin remembered that last night, Zhao Xunyan pinched her neck and used her as a tool, and felt ashamed. But her life is like this, and the only way is to transfer all the anger of the prince to others, such as Chu Zhenzhen, whom he doesn't like in the first place.

Xu Jin took a deep breath, calmed down his emotions, and looked at Chu Zhenzhen with a smile: "Naturally not, I had a nightmare yesterday and pinched it myself." As the second lady said, since the wedding date is set by the emperor, we have no right to delay it, so in this case, I will prepare as usual. ”

Chu Zhenzhen smiled sarcastically: "How could the prince let you have a side concubine to prepare for the princess's wedding, usually it is prepared by the palace grandmother"

Xu Jin stood up with a smile: "If the second miss doesn't believe it, you can ask, I won't explain much, if the second miss doesn't want me to help prepare, go and tell the prince." Xu Jin said with a smile, turned around and left.

Chu Zhenzhen stood up angrily: "Xu Jin, you stop for me!" ”

Xu Jin turned back lightly: "The second lady wants to play the prestige of the princess, let's wait until after marrying into the palace, so as not to be ridiculous and generous." ”

"You" Chu Zhenzhen wanted to say something, but Xu Jin had already turned around and left.

Chu Zhenzhen was so angry: "Go, let someone go to the palace to ask, whether the prince ordered it like this, if she dares to lie to me, see if I don't tear her!" ”

"Yes!" Busy with the mother-in-law answered, she went out.

Chu Zhenzhen's anger had not subsided, so she heard Yahuan come and say, "Miss, Madam asked you to go to Ruyi Garden." ”

"What's wrong again?" Chu Zhenzhen was a little impatient.

The girl hurriedly said: "The fourth lady has gone to see the eldest lady, I don't know what to eat for the eldest lady, the eldest lady's hands and feet are actually conscious." ”

"Really?" Chu Zhenzhen was a little happy, if her mother was not a wasted person, maybe she could do something, such as the dowry left by her grandmother.

The girl nodded, and Chu Zhenzhen hurriedly turned her head and went back, but when she passed by Ronghua Courtyard, she heard a sad cry from inside, and stopped with a weak heart: "What's going on here?" ”

"It's the Snow White girl next to the old lady in front of her, Aunt Yanxue invited a Taoist priest to do the supernatural ritual, and now she is crying sadly." Yahuan replied.

"White Snow" Chu Zhenzhen remembered the shameful afternoon when she was hit by white snow, her silver teeth were in danger, her eyes flashed a little murderous, but the corners of her mouth were hooked, and she stepped away.

When Xu Jin arrived at the Zhujin Pavilion, he saw that several maids around Chu Ji were playing happily, frowned slightly, and walked in.

"Are the maids around the eldest lady so ignorant of the rules, and they are so nonsense in front of you?" Xu Jin's tone was a little disgusted, she has always claimed to be Miss Everyone, and she values these etiquette rules of her subordinates the most.

As soon as Xu Jin said this, Xiao Fu'er and the others immediately quieted down and stood respectfully on the side.

Chu Ji chuckled: "I allow them to play, I like to be lively." ”

When Xu Jin saw her say this, she only felt a little embarrassed, but thinking about the purpose of her coming, she smiled again; "You're such a good master."

Chu Xi smiled faintly and didn't speak, leading her to sit down on the side. Tea was served.

Xu Jin glanced at Chu Xi's hand, and saw that there was a book of Zhiwei, and was a little surprised: "Miss Chu usually looks at this in the mansion?" ”

Chu Xi responded lightly: "The stories in these books are all bizarre, but there is some truth, and it is best to pass the time." ”

Xu Jin felt a little more proud in his heart: "When I go back, I will ask people to send some female Fan Jielu and Lie Nu to pass over." ”

"Okay." Chu Xi responded casually, as for whether to look at it or not, it was her own business.

Xu Jin saw that Chu Xi accepted, and then relaxed, first looked at her room, only to see that there were very few luxurious things, more flowers or green branches folded back outside, and even incense had not been lit, but there was still a faint fragrance in the room. Look at Chu Xi again, dressed in a water-green regular clothes, with a lazy bun, she lazily picked a few strands of a hairpin with excellent water and light and held it behind her head, and the whole person exuded a quiet taste, like this, it is really likable and jealous.

"I'll call you a child." Xu Jin said with a smile.

Chu Xi nodded lightly. Xu Jin said again: "My daughter is really a good life, that is, she is a concubine, she enjoys the honor of the concubine of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and she can have a close friend, and she has such a good marriage." Xu Jin's tone was full of yearning.

Chu Xi lowered her eyes: "Yes, it's indeed a good life." ”

Xu Jin paused and raised her eyes to look at her: "I'm usually bored at home alone, I wonder if I can invite my sister to the house to talk to me?" In this way, the prince may also be happy, and if Chu Xi can also treat herself like the young lady of the Yun family, why should she worry about the future.

Chu Ji smiled lightly: "During this time, I have to prepare for marriage, without my mother and grandmother, I have to keep an eye on these many things, I'm afraid I don't have time to go to the concubine's mansion." ”

Seeing Chu Xi's refusal, Xu Jin was not annoyed, she had long expected her to be like this, and said, "That's too, you are also a pitiful person." Why don't I ask the grandmother in the house to come and help you? ”

"Concubine Xie is kind, I have enough people." Chu Xi refused.

Xu Jin saw her repeated refusals, and was slightly annoyed in her heart, but she couldn't help it: "Xi'er"

"Miss, the master asked you to go to the study." Outside, there is a ring.

"What did you say?" Chu Xi asked.

Yahuan shook her head: "I didn't say it." ”

"Hmm." Chu Ji bowed his head and looked at Xu Jin, Xu Jin naturally didn't want to come and leave, and said with a smile: "I'll go over with you, my father had some friendship with the prime minister before his death, so I just went over to take a look." ”

Xu Jin said this strangely, Xu Minzhong was already a criminal minister, and said that he had a relationship with Chu Bingsong, so that Chu Bingsong heard it, and he didn't know how angry he was going to be.

Chu Ji was not angry, and it was good for Xu Jin to be angry, so he nodded and went to Chu Bingsong's courtyard with her.

At this end, Chu Zhenzhen returned to Ruyi Garden. Seeing that the mother-in-law inside was also happy, and when she saw her coming, she hurriedly stepped forward to lift the curtain for her.

As soon as Chu Zhenzhen entered, she knew that Qin Xue's hands and feet were really able to move, and as soon as she was happy, she gave a reward to everyone in the courtyard.

Chu Zhenzhen was also happy, but when she saw Chu Dai'er on one side, her expression sank.

"Zhenzhen, come on, you see that my mother can already move." Qin Xue was overjoyed, if she could move, she would be able to take revenge on Chu Bingsong, a negative man.

Chu Zhenzhen hurriedly stepped forward: "Congratulations mother." ”

Qin Xue smiled and turned her head to look at Chu Dai'er on the side: "Don't worry, Dai'er, what you have to do, your mother will definitely do her best to help you." ”

"What's the matter?" Chu Zhenzhen asked puzzled.

Chu Dai'er got up and saluted Qin Xue: "Then thank you mother." It was not too early, and Dale went back to wait for news from her mother. After that, he also saluted Chu Zhenzhen: "The second sister will marry to the palace in more than two months, and my sister is here to congratulate my sister." ”

"Pretend," Chu Zhenzhen said directly. What Chu Dai'er's true face is, she already knew.

Chu Dai'er didn't argue with her, but looked at her with a smile: "Go back and talk to the second sister again." With that, he turned and left.

Chu Zhenzhen looked at her back, and always felt that when she came back this time, the whole person became gloomy, although Fang Cai looked at herself with a smile, she always felt that her back was hairy.

"Mother, what the hell did Daile ask you to do?"
