The Crown Prince in the Jade Pendant

Chapter 32: .Mystery visitor

The prince said, you missed the key plot, so I won't show you this chapter! Hurry up and make it up~   Grandma Deng stepped forward and waited for her to read the handwriting on Chu Jin's wonderful book, and said in surprise: "The girl has also read the world and spoke a new language?"

"I don't dare, I just read it one or two in my spare time."

Grandma Deng pointed to the words in the book and asked, "You wrote these?"

"I wrote it casually after I read it before." Chu Jin was a little embarrassed, closed the book with his backhand, stood up and said, "Mother laughed."

Mother Deng shook her head, picked up Chu Jinmiao's book, and roughly flipped through it. I saw ink stains scattered on the book, and some of it was old ink. I could read it from time to time and even wrote insights on the book. Grandma Deng nodded and smiled after reading it: "The Four Girls surprised me. These books are not scientific research bibliographies. Men rarely read them. I never thought of the Four Girls but read them many times. The slave is ashamed."

"Don't dare to be, mother, don't say that." Chu Jinmiao waved his hand and smiled, "I just read and play on weekdays, and I don't need to test tribute, how dare I compare my brothers' skills."

"The four girls are overly modest." Grandma Deng smiled. She used to hear people only say that the four girls are known for their talents, and today is the real experience. She suddenly became interested in talents. It is rare that there is such a smart and studious girl among the ladies. Mother Deng asked with a gentle face: "Four girls, it's not early, the old lady should have dinner. Why don't you see people come looking for you? "

Chu Jinmiao smiled bitterly: "What identity am I? How can someone come to find me."

Mother Deng suddenly thought that although the four girls had their names on them, their true identity was not a lady of the Chu family. This girl is also pitiful. She has been in a good house for thirteen years, and suddenly she was told that she is not from this family, and that she is a real daughter. Grandma Deng was very sorry. The destiny of talented women is always so divorced. The more she thinks about it, the more unpleasant she is. She said: "The four girls don't have to be so low. Your talents are here, and sooner or later they will shine. Even if the pearl is covered in dust, But as long as you are a pearl, one day you will meet someone with knowledge!"

"Thank you for your comfort." Chu Jinmiao saluted Grandma Deng. The smile on her face didn't last long, and she became sad again. "I also hope to meet the wise man in the mouth of Grandma. But it's me. I am embarrassed and live in the Hou Mansion with a bad name. I am afraid I can't wait until Bole. I didn't expect that I was the girl who held the wrong person. Over the past few years, I had occupied the identity and status of the family in vain. The Hou Mansion was willing to take me in. It’s already a great kindness, and I don’t dare to ask for more. I usually have a few complaints about it. Who made me guilty when I was born. I originally thought there was only a place to live. Just let me continue reading, but unfortunately, it is my extravagant hope after all."

Grandma Deng frowned upon hearing these words: "Fourth girl, could it be that the fifth girl is secretly targeting you?"

After hearing this, Chu Jinmiao bowed her head in silence. After a while, she shook her head with a mournful face: "Mother, don't say it. She doesn't like hearing this kind of thing. I robbed someone from someone else. She was outside." I didn’t have a good time. It’s really right to be angry with me after I came back. Grandmother and father are both determined to make up for her. I am not a decent girl from the Chu family. It would be nice if they were willing to raise me. No? It's okay anyway, it's over after a while."

Grandma Deng sighed. The four girls were originally the proud daughter of heaven, but she was suddenly told that she was actually the daughter of a farmer. Who could bear such a drastic change in her identity? Not to mention, the four girls still have to face their former sisters and subordinates. I am afraid that after her identity is revealed, the original subordinates dare to openly neglect her, right? Mother Deng originally thought that the four girls were quiet and talented, but she never expected that she would lead such a life in private.

Mother Deng felt pity, and she could only say: "The girl doesn't have to complain, she will be fine in the future."

"Hope." Chu Jinmiao smiled bitterly and sighed, "I just don't know how long this Hou Mansion can hold me. It doesn't matter if I am like duckweed anyway."

Mother Deng could not speak, and she also felt that for the four girls, the Hou Mansion was not a long-term place to stay. However, she could not decide about the companionship of the palace. Mother Deng felt that it would be nice to find a talented and studious girl for the county lord, but she didn't count, so the princess and old lady nodded! If Mother Deng can decide this, she can now comfort Chu Jinmiao with a few words, but she can't, and she can't give Chu Jinmiao hope. In the end, Mother Deng could only say: "Don't worry, girls, there will always be people who recognize your preciousness, and they will be able to marry you back in the future."

Chu Jinmiao burst into tears and smiled: "Mother Xie Jiyan." She hurriedly put away her tears and pretended to be strong and smiled. However, the pretense of being strong would only make people feel more distressed. Chu Jinmiao seemed to not know, and said: " I think my grandma and I have a special relationship. The first time I saw my grandma, I liked you very much, but I didn’t dare to say it, I was afraid that you would feel that I was flattering. I have a collection of poems written in the past, how can I give you a meeting gift? kind?"

Mother Deng hesitated: "The girl's collection of poems, how good is this..."

Chu Jinmiao saw that Grandma Deng was about to resign, and quickly said, "Mother, I don’t need to resign. This is my heart. I’m afraid I won’t see you again after this farewell. I will give you my collection of poems. It has fulfilled my wish."

Seeing what Chu Jinmiao had said, Mother Deng had no choice but to agree: "Okay, the old slave will pass."

Chu Jinmiao immediately pulled out a collection of poems from under the pile of books and handed it to Mother Deng with both hands. Grandma Deng turned a few pages casually, and suddenly heard Chu Jinmiao's "Yeah". Mother Deng looked up: "Girl, what's the matter?"

"Mother, I almost forgot. There are a few poems by my brother in it. If they are all my own, then I will send them to you. But there are poems by my second brother, and I don’t know he doesn’t have them either. Make another copy. It’s not good to give it to you directly. Or, I’ll go back today and copy it again, and I’ll send it to you tomorrow?"

Grandma Deng smiled and said, "Okay, this is natural." After Grandma Deng finished speaking, she couldn't help adding: "The four girls don't have to be in a hurry. We will leave at noon tomorrow. You can copy slowly, yes. If you are in time, you must not delay sleeping just for this."

"I can save it." Chu Jinmiao pursed his lips and smiled. She and Grandma Deng were talking, and suddenly a voice came from outside the door: "Sister Si, are you there?"

Chu Jinmiao thought, why did she come? But Mother Deng was still there, and Chu Jinmiao couldn't keep silent, so she reluctantly smiled and replied, "I'm here."

As soon as the three girls, Chu Jinchan, came in, they saw Chu Jinmiao and Mother Deng standing together, and they seemed to have said something for a long time. The third girl's eyes flashed and she cursed in her heart, but she immediately smiled on her face: "Why is the fourth sister here? It makes me easy to find."

Chu Jinmiao smiled awkwardly, not wanting to talk to the three girls at all. Chu Jinmiao hurriedly said: "It's getting late, I'll send Grandma Deng out, don't miss the time that Grandma eats."

The three girls refused to let it go, and forced Mother Deng to speak. Chu Jinmiao was afraid of being ruined by the third girl. She finally made a good impression on Mother Deng, but don't be ruined by the third girl.

Chu Jinmiao secretly pulled the sleeves of the third girl, threatening her eyes: "Sister Sister, we should go back. Grandma is looking for it."

The third girl sneered in her heart. She said: "The grandmother has the eldest sister and the fifth sister, why does the grandmother think of us?"

Grandma Deng listened and asked: "It sounds like the five girls seem to be very favored?"

Speaking of Chu Jinyao, the three girls and Chu Jinmiao secretly looked at each other, united the front, and said: "Yes, grandmother feels owed to her, and treats her very well. Our sisters can also let it go, but that's the case. She always targets the fourth sister..."

Chu Jinmiao waited for the three girls to finish before interrupting: "Sister, don't say anything, let the mother laugh."

Mother Deng knew it in her heart, and said: "It's about to pass the meal, the two girls go home quickly."

The three girls and Chu Jinmiao saluted together and watched Mother Deng leave. After Grandma Deng walked away and couldn't hear the voice at all, the three girls pushed away Chu Jinmiao's hand and sneered: "The fourth sister is really a good way. We have clearly stated that we will form an alliance. In the end, you will just remember it like this. Want me to secretly please Grandma Deng?"

"Everyone depends on their ability." Chu Jinmiao put away his collection of poems, there was no such thing as a pitiful look on his face. She didn't bother to look at the third girl again, and turned to go out.

The three girls saw the things in Chu Jinmiao's hand with sharp eyes, and hurriedly grabbed them, "What are you? Did they secretly write to the son?"

Chu Jinmiao felt that this person was unreasonable. What kind of identity was she? How could she secretly write poems to men and do such shameless things? She stubbornly grabbed the collection of poems and refused to let go. This was what she wanted to give to Grandma Deng and let Grandma Deng bring it to the palace and give it to the princess! How could he be snatched away by the little mother like the third girl. Seeing that Chu Jinmiao refused to let go, the three girls felt that love poems were written in them, and Chu Jinmiao wanted her to seduce the son first! The three girls also used their hands vigorously, and finally, with a "stab", the collection of poems was dragged in half by them.

Chu Jinmiao stepped back uncontrollably with her hands suddenly loosened, and when she stood firm, she saw that her carefully selected collection of poems had been torn up!

Chu Jinmiao was furious and shouted: "Chu Jinchan, what are you doing!"

The third girl was also flashed upright. After she stood firm, she flipped through the collection of poems and said disdainfully: "It turns out to be these sour poems that hurt the spring and sadness of the autumn. You said it earlier, who should be patient to read it."

Chu Jin was trembling with anger, but the third girl still looked like he was not stingy, and said coolly: "Don't show me this way, I know what virtue you are, it's useless! Being torn apart is not a recognition. If you didn’t get the words inside, you would have to copy a copy without any loss."

"You..." Chu Jin was shaking with anger. Really the wicked still needs the wicked to grind, Chu Jinmiao deliberately slandered Chu Jinyao just now, and now she is overwhelmed with anger by the three girls. The third girl said in a weird manner: "Who asked you to eat alone with me behind? Shouldn't it be! If it wasn't for Chu Jinyao to look really good, and Sanfang's light is not a fuel-efficient lamp, who is impatient to form an alliance with you?"

Chu Jinmiao knew that it was useless to be angry with the third girl. This was a skinless and faceless one. Hearing Chu Jinyao's name, a light flashed in Chu Jinmiao's mind: "You just said, Chu Jinyao..."

.

After lunch, Chu Jinyao stayed in Baosha to write. She only wrote for a while, when she heard a noise outside, the maid said that it was the son of Huai Ling who came to greet the old lady.

Chu Jinyao thought for a while, and said, "My aunt and the others will leave tomorrow. Today, the elder son came to greet the old lady, but it was all courtesy."

"He has always been like this." Qin Yi didn't care much. He had met Lin Xiyuan several times and knew his temperament. Chu Jinyao was taken aback when she heard it. She secretly glanced at the people on both sides, lowered her voice and said, "Be quiet, there are still people around!"

Chu Jinyao can hear Qin Yi speak, naturally other people can also, so they have been very careful when there are many people. Recently, Qin Yi doesn't know what's wrong, and always restrains himself from speaking outside. Chu Jinyao feels that it's mostly because he comes out and wanders every day, slowly changing his mind, and is no longer as cautious as he was when he first came.

Sure enough, Qin Yi didn't listen, only others avoid him, there is no reason why he avoids others. Chu Jinyao couldn't help it, so he could only continue to write with his head down.

Chu Jinyao and Lin Xiyuan had an earth-shattering first meeting. Lin Xiyuan saw her not observing etiquette. Since then, Chu Jinyao has been avoiding him, even Jingan deliberately avoided. Fortunately, Lin Xiyuan is leaving, and she may never see her again. Her dark history will never be known again. Chu Jinyao will be as happy as she is.

However, I didn’t see the mountain, the mountain came to see me. Chu Jinyao was hiding in the holding mansion. Suddenly, there was a burst of laughter from far and near. Chu Jinyao looked up in amazement and saw Lin Xiyuan leading a series of people to open the mansion. The curtain came in with a smile.

"Fifth cousin, why are you hiding here alone?"

Chu Jinyao was depressed and didn't want to talk.

Lin Xiyuan has always been the center of his eyes, where he is, the focus is there. Lin Xiyuan arrived in Baosha, and after a while, the Lin family's girl, Lin Xining, and the Chu family's girls all came in with their own names.

There was a sudden noisy in Baoxia, so what else to write. Chu Jinyao secretly put away the collection of poems in annoyance, forced a smile to listen to a few of them chatting.

Everyone surrounded Lin Xiyuan, and Chu Jinyao was quickly squeezed aside. Lin Xiyuan was surrounded in the center, but he still remembered that Chu Jinyao didn't answer him just now. He looked at Chu Jinyao with a smile, and said, "After a while, how did the fifth cousin get squeezed so far? It's still my fault. The fifth cousin stayed in the holding mansion by herself. I was the one who disturbed the cousin. Quiet. Cousin won't blame me, will she?"

I will, Chu Jinyao secretly scolded him for being enjoyable, but still smiled on the surface: "Why, the world is polite."

Looking at Chu Jinyao's expression, Lin Xiyuan knew that this girl was wrong. He became more amused and said: "I haven't asked yet, what is my cousin doing here?"

Seeing that Lin Xiyuan took the initiative to talk to Chu Jinyao and only talked to Chu Jinyao, the girls secretly twisted their handkerchiefs in annoyance. Chu Jinyao knew that she would never have peace now, so she sighed and said, "I'm just copying books."

"Copy books?" Lin Xiyuan was very surprised, "It turns out that my cousin is so diligent, I interrupted my cousin to work hard, don't blame the cousin."

Lin Xiyuan even stretched out his hand to make a gesture, and Chu Jinyao quickly avoided it. The other girls became more jealous when they saw it, and they talked to distract Lin Xiyuan's attention: "Cousin, I don't understand a bit about what the mother said today, can you teach me?"

Lin Xiyuan was surrounded at once, unable to get out. Chu Jinmiao silently glanced at Chu Jinyao, and a sneer flashed across his mouth. She quickly calmed down and said: "It just so happens that I want to write something, and then bring me a bookcase, I also want to write here."

When the girls heard it, they realized that it could still be like this, and they all rushed to say: "I want too!"

Aunt Huang was so pampered, and the three girls had been fascinated by her since she was a child, and she was also very good at winning over men. The third girl knew that she was a concubine, Mrs. Chu didn't need to count on it, and the Zhao family wouldn't say good things to her. The only thing she could rely on was Chang Xinghou. After all, Changxing Hou is the master of the Hou Mansion. As long as Changxing Hou is optimistic about her, the old lady and others dare not despise the three girls.

The three girls saw that they had succeeded in leaving the impression of diligence and hard work on Changxinghou. The next step is to persuade Chang Xinghou to let Chang Xinghou come forward and recommend the third girl to read with Mrs. Chu. That is the matter of Aunt Huang.

After coming out, the three girls had a much brisk footsteps. Her maid was happy to see the girl, and said jokingly: "Master Hou really loves the girl, and today she actually said that the girl came to read with the county owner as a companion."

"Elders, I always like to be well-behaved and diligent. What's more, when dealing with men, showing weakness, and pretending to be a naive and innocent temperament. It is enough to have an aunt to help me plan, this is the position of companion. "I must get my hands." The third girl said, "Reading to the county host’s companion is a trivial matter. When it comes to the palace, it’s most important to get along with the son. Then I will work harder and put some effort on the son. Uncertain, I will spend the second half of my life in the palace."

The third girl smiled as she thought about it. She was very confident in her way of winning over men. She dared to say that as long as she can go to the palace smoothly, she will be able to give her a good impression of her, and then stay in the palace and be able to live in the world The concubine is the best, even if you can't be a concubine, the concubine is better than ordinary people. The Zhao family hates her auntie so much, and her marriage falls into the hands of Zhao family, what can she do? She might as well fight for it herself.

The maid said: "What the girl said. The girl is so smart, she will be able to get her wish in the future."

"Of course." The third girl was complacent. In the back house, as long as the man is right, it is equivalent to getting everything. What if the old lady in the house doesn't like it? Mrs. Chu still doesn't really like her aunt's style of smoky and flattering, but who makes Changxinghou like it? The aunt is not yet graceful and decent living in the back house, except for the name of a lady in the house, everything else is not bad. It is such a powerful person as Mrs. Chu, when he was young, he was very angry with the concubine's house. The living environment of the three girls taught her practically that it is better to try hard to cling to a stronger man than sticking to the name of the main room and concubine room. After the big deal, he will win over the man and compete with the main room for favor. The three girls are very confident in their methods of fighting for favor.

The maid asked: "Girl, do we still use the palm lamp to read tonight?"

"Who is impatient to see which." The third girl was disgusted. "It is enough to put a lamp in the Toji room, spread the book, and put on the illusion that I am reading. By the way, remember tomorrow, if you want to reveal it to your father inadvertently, I read the book until very late again."

"Yes."

In the house with three bedrooms and six girls, the maid came in to add water to the six girls.

"Girl, it's so late, are you still watching?"

"I want to choose a partner to read, and always behave in a diligent manner." Six girls put down the pen. She had just written a page of large characters, and her wrist was a little lacking. She felt that it was almost done, so she said, "I'll be here for today. I'm tired, so take a break."

"The girl is running out of hands?" The maid hurried over and knelt on the ground to rub her wrists for the sixth girl. The maid said: "Girl, you are too diligent, but after all, your body is important. You can rest for a while when you are tired. You won't be late tomorrow."

"Yeah." Six girls replied in a low voice, she leaned back a little sleepily, put her hands in the hands of the maid, and let the maid come to massage. Six girls closed her eyes, thinking about today's things in her mind.

Today they joined forces to plot Chu Jinyao, and Chu Jinyao's subsequent counterattack surprised her.

The sixth girl is the only prostitute in the third room. The third master was born to Aunt Yang. The old man loved Aunt Yang especially when he was alive, and even the third master was also valued. When the three rooms were the most beautiful, the cost of food and clothing was better than that of the aunt. The eldest son is good, even Mrs. Chu has to avoid the three-room edge. It's a pity that the old man died, and it was Dafang who inherited the majesty. Old Lady Chu turned over immediately, and then began to suppress Aunt Yang and Sanfang.

At that time, Lord Hou loved the third master very much, and even had the idea of ​​passing the position of the Hou to the third room. However, the aunt is still alive, and there are two elder brothers on it. Mrs. Chu's family is not a vegetarian. Under the pressure of etiquette, relying on the strength of the old man alone, it is really impossible to compete with the entire patriarchal society. In the end, the Hou position was left to the eldest son Chu Jing, and Mrs. Chu finally came and looked forward to the opportunity to turn over for ten years.

As soon as Mrs. Chu took power, she immediately sold Aunt Yang, and in front of everyone, she berated Sanfang for having no rules, and the cost of food and clothing exceeded the etiquette. Sanfang made a big mess, and since then, food, clothing, shelter and transportation have plummeted. It turns out that the gold and silver savings that the old man has given him can't be kept.

Until now, Sanfang had to be a man with his tail sandwiched between them. The third master and the third wife did not even dare to fart in front of their aunt. The family knows that the old lady doesn't like three bedrooms, and the subordinates in the house are very snobbery. Many people see that they are not taken seriously, and they dare to deduct the cost of the three bedrooms. The old lady always had no room for sand in her eyes, but she closed one eye to this matter and completely acquiesced.

Six girls unknowingly put on a sarcastic smile, saying that Mrs. Chu has no blood relationship with their three rooms, how can you count on Mrs. Chu's kindness? After all, people are selfish and hypocritical.

Sanfang is walking on thin ice outside, but inside is harmonious, as if external pressure is increasingly bringing them together. The third master and the third wife are in harmony, with one son and one daughter. The third master has only a few common rooms and no concubine rooms. Compared with the complicated backyard of Changxinghou, the second master and the third master are much better.

The sixth girl is the only daughter of the third master and the third wife, twelve years old this year. Six girls closed their eyes, thinking slowly, now Changxinghou is in good health, and he also has a concubine under his name. Unless all the males in Dafang and Erfang die overnight, there will be no chance for Sanfang to turn over. The mother counted on the imperial examination high school for the fifth youngest son, and it soared into the sky. However, Young Master Five is only eleven now, even if he can get into high school, it will be many years later.

After all, the only thing Six Girls can rely on is herself.

"Girl?" The maid yelled suddenly, and the sixth girl woke up from her thoughts. She looked at the maid unhappily and asked, "What's the matter?"

The maid flinched, quickly lowered her head, and said, "It's nothing, I'm afraid the girl is asleep, so I called it out."

The sixth girl retracted her hand. After being massaged by the maid, her hand was much better. Six girls' eyes were as calm as an ancient well, and said quietly: "It's hard to be loved by the elders. It seems that I can only change the situation by working **** my own."

"Girl?" the maid asked tentatively. The sixth girl turned her head and said in a flat tone: "I will study and practice diligently these few days, and you should prepare pen, ink and other things in advance."

"Yes."

.

In Chaoyun Courtyard, Chu Jinyao just finished writing the third page of the big characters.

Qin Yi slept, and when he woke up, he saw Chu Jinyao still practicing calligraphy. He looked back at the sky and said, "You have been practicing calligraphy?"

"Yes." Chu Jinyao put down the pen, rubbed her already stiff wrist, and spread out a new piece of white rice paper. She has written three pages. This is only the finished product, and there are still many waste papers written in the middle. In order to show diligence, the third girl kept the light in the study room on. The sixth girl hardened her heart to practice, but she felt tired after writing a page and didn’t want to write any more. Chu Jinmiao accompanied Zhao to talk about it all night. Then, help Zhao's aunt in the backyard. Only Chu Jinyao really practiced all night and has not rested until now.

Even Qin Yi sighed: "You don't need to be in such a hurry, freezing three feet is not a day's cold, you don't have to force yourself like this." Chu Jinyao's skill is comparable to that of a student in the scientific examination.

"No." Chu Jinyao shook her head, "I didn't have the opportunity to write before. I'm already much worse than my sisters. If I don't work hard, I deserve to be laughed at. I'll just write another page. have a rest."

Qin Yi looked at it for a while and sighed silently. He suddenly said: "I used to worry about you, but now it seems that wherever you go in the future, you will live your life very well."

"Really?" Chu Jinyao was surprised, smiled and looked up from the paper, looking at Qin Yi.

Under the light, Chu Jinyao's eyes were bright and almost glowing. Qin Yi also smiled softly, and rarely nodded softly, "Really."

Chu Jinyao chuckled and laughed: "I also think. As long as I think about going to live in a completely unfamiliar family in the future, I feel terrified, but the thought of being with you is nothing."

Qin Yi was silent for a while before speaking lowly, "Chu Jinyao, have you ever thought that if one day, I am gone?"

Hearing these words, Chu Jinyao was suddenly speechless.

In fact, she thought about this question. Although I don’t know why Qin Yi appeared in her jade Perry, but Qin Yi is almost omnipotent, omnipotent, such a spirit of unknown origin, but very understanding of the world, Chu Jinyao does not think that the other party can stay with her. Around. She thought that she could meet Qin Yi, it was already God's love, when this day really came, she could only wish Qin Yiyuan to fly high and take it to the next level.

"If there is such a day, Qi Ze, you must tell me earlier." As soon as the words were spoken, Chu Jinyao regretted it again, "No, you still don't want to tell me, I know it will be totally uncomfortable. You think you will. With so many things, what belongs to you is the vast sky outside, not me, a lady in the house who can only see a small piece of sky. You will have a very good life in the future, and I will always bless you."
