The Crown Prince in the Jade Pendant

Chu Jinyao was lost and was looking for Qin Yi for directions.　　 The road knows horsepower from a distance, and it will see people's hearts over time. Chu Jinyao wrote this sentence in front of everyone, not only can relieve herself, wash away the sewage that she can't write, but also secretly express her frank heart and satirize Chu Jinmiao and others with a backhand.

Kikyo asked happily: "Girl, how did you remember to write this poem?"

Chu Jinyao sighed: "It's not what I thought. Today is too dangerous."

Chu Jinmiao and others guessed right, Chu Jinyao, really can't write, at least can't write with a brush.

After all, she was raised in a poor peasant's head. Which peasant house is suitable for girls to read and write? Chu Jinyao knew most of the characters, which was already extremely rare in the village.

Although the Su family was poor, when Chu Jinyao and Chu Jinmiao were born, the Zhao family borrowed the Su family and gave them a box of golden hairpins as a reward. Not to mention how much the craftsmanship of the gold hairpin is worth, just relying on the few taels of gold has been enough for the Su family to worry about food and clothing for a long time. But Su's mother is stingy by nature, especially for Su Hui and Chu Jinyao. If you can save it, you will save it. The clothes should be large and worn for the small ones. But for his only son, Su Sheng, Su's father and Su's mother were very willing to spend money, and even gritted their teeth and sent Su Sheng to a private school in the township, hoping to offer a scholar to come out.

Chu Jinyao didn't think that Su Sheng's straw bag could come back from the exam. Su Sheng was spoiled by the family and was lawless since he was a child. He knew that he commanded his two sisters and spent a lot of money to study at a private school every day. a bit. On the contrary, it was Chu Jinyao. She and Su Sheng were only one year apart. Through Su Sheng's light, she knew a lot of characters. However, although Chu Jinyao can roughly recognize commonly used characters, she can't write it at all. Obviously, the Su family would not give her the opportunity to practice writing. Chu Jinyao avoided his family when he was young and practiced on the sand several times, but how can writing on the sand be the same as writing on paper?

Moreover, the Changxing Houfu used all the excellent Tuhao pens, and the nibs were all soft. Without a few years of wrist work, how could one learn to use pens.

Chu Jinyao was able to write the five words "Lu Yao knows horsepower" thanks to Qin Yi. Qin Yi really didn't have the patience to watch Chu Jinyao do needlework, and the time in her boudoir was so boring, he could only rush Chu Jinyao to the study and teach her to write. These five words were given by Qin Yi to Chu Jinyao for self-defense just in case. Who would have thought that it was really used.

Bellflower brought the sewing basket and asked, "Girl, are you still doing needlework today?"

"No, Mother said a lot today. I'm going to the study to review." Chu Jinyao stood up and walked to the two study rooms to the east. She also left a message to the maids: "I want to read the book in the study, you don't want to come in and disturb me."

"Yes."

When the door was closed, Chu Jinyao immediately became obedient and shouted softly: "Qize Qize, are you there?"

Qin Yi hummed softly, "Aren't you impatient to practice calligraphy? Why have you changed your attitude now?"

Chu Jinyao faced Qin Yi with a thick-skinned face. She said, “I’m not here to thank you! If it weren’t for you to urge me before, I’ll be ugly today! But I can’t hide it for a while. , I can only write these five words. Sooner or later, I will reveal my stuff! If the four girls seize the flaws by then..." Chu Jinyao felt like she was fighting all over her body after thinking about it. She said: "I don't want it! I mocked Chu Jinmiao severely today. If she finds out that I can't write, she will definitely be able to return it three or four times! I don't want this, Zize, Zize... …"

At the end of the day, Chu Jinyao's tone stretched out, already leading to a coquettish posture that you would not follow if you didn't promise me.

Qin Yi sighed, acting like a baby is really a woman's talent skill, and Chu Jinyao naturally knows how to grind him. Qin Yi couldn't help but said helplessly: "Okay, I won't care about you. Go and study Mo."

Chu Jinyao gave a crisp "Hey" and ran over to Yanmo happily. She had just laid out the paper, and suddenly heard camellia calling her outside, Chu Jinyao had to put aside what was at hand and go out to see what happened.

Chu Jinyao walked inside while talking to Campanulaceae and the others: "The weather has been hot these days. Wash these jacketed clothes and put them away. By the way, fur clothes are easy to get damp, so they must be dried. Take it again!"

"Yes." Campanulaceae went out with their clothes in their arms. Lilac followed Chu Jinyao. Chu Jinyao walked through the dazzling Bogu frame and said, "I don't need you to wait here anymore. You go out and do other things first. Right. I'm reading in the study, don't let other little maids come in and disturb me."

Dingxiang let out a "hey" and turned around obediently. Chu Jinyao opened the yarn closet and looked up unsuspectingly, and saw a man standing in front of her desk.

Chu Jinyao was so scared that she took a step back and slammed her back against the yarn cupboard, and her legs were soft at that moment.

Chu Jinyao opened her mouth slightly, and was silent for a long time. Dingxiang did not go far, hearing the sound, hurried over and asked: "Girl, what's the matter with you?"

Chu Jinyao arranged the Dongshao room as a study room. Since it was a study room, it had to be cut off from the outside, otherwise it would be messy. Now Chu Jinyao's hand is resting on the bisha cupboard that he ordered to install himself. Through the light veil on the partition, he can see the shadow of the maidservant coming and going outside. Lilac's voice seemed to be in her ears, and Chu Jinyao nervously leaned on the partition, unsure whether to open the door to let people in.

And the culprit of all this is standing in front of the desk looking through the copybook as if strolling in the courtyard. Hearing the voice of Lilac, he raised his head without any urgency. Instead, he looked up at Chu Jinyao with a joking smile in his eyes. .

It seems that he also wants to see what Chu Jinyao intends to do.

Chu Jinyao took a deep breath and involuntarily looked down to look at the shadow of the other party. Seeing Chu Jinyao's movements, the other party raised his eyebrows, and a deep chuckle overflowed into his chest.

There is no shadow, appearing silently in her room, and it's extremely arrogant. Chu Jinyao originally thought that he had hit a ghost, but later I saw that this uncle's posture was too arrogant, so arrogant that she felt familiar. Chu Jinyao slowly settled down, lowered her voice, and asked tentatively, "Qize?"

The other party just smiled and did not answer, but continued to look through the copybook Chu Jinyao put on the table. At this time, Lilac outside the door did not move for a long time, and felt a little flustered. He shouted again: "Girl?"

Hearing her tone, she was about to open the door and come in.

Chu Jinyao hurriedly shouted outside: "I'm okay, I just accidentally knocked down the pen holder, and it's all right now."

"Girl, are you really okay?" Lilac was still dubious, "Should I come in and help you clean up?"

"no, I'm fine……"

At this moment, Qin Yi said: "You didn't choose these copybooks well..."

"Don't talk!" Chu Jinyao quickly turned her head and glared at Qin Yi. She turned her eyes slightly, gestured outwards, and whispered to Qin Yi, "I'm busy, don't make trouble!"

Oh, there are people in the world who dare to think that he is making trouble? Qin Yi smiled inexplicably and shook his head, but after that, he didn't say anything again.

When Chu Jinyao finally dismissed the cloves, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief, before she had time to drink tea to moisturize her mouth, she hurried over to see Qin Yi.

"Are you a human?" Chu Jinyao looked at Qin Yi with a bright light in her eyes. Chu Jinyao's eyes are very beautiful, with beautiful lines from the corner of the eye to the end of the eye, the eyelashes are slender and curled, looking at the fluffy, but the end of the eye is slightly raised, creating a charming touch. Her eyes were round and black, and they were as clear as a gem immersed in water, glowing with water.

The sunlight in the pane shone on her face, surprisingly soft, and Chu Jinyao looked at him so intently again. At that moment, Qin Yi felt that the sun and the moon could not compete with her eyes.

Qin Yi was a little lost in the world, and he replied with a low voice, "Yeah." After a while, he reacted to something wrong, and turned his head to stare at Chu Jinyao: "It's all said that I am a human being. How dare I say that?"

Chu Jinyao whispered: "You just admitted that..." Qin Yi's eyes swept over, and Chu Jinyao changed his mouth under threat, "Well, I just said it wrong."

Qin Yi nodded his head in satisfaction. As a man, he had a long neckline and exquisite jaw. Such a casual movement was extremely beautiful by him, with innate arrogance.

Chu Jinyao looked at it for a while, unexpectedly felt a little ashamed, and avoided her eyes unnaturally. It turned out that they were also living together day and night. Chu Jinyao faced Qin Yi very calmly, because at that time he had no body shape, only a voice. Although he had a male voice, in Chu Jinyao's heart, Qin Yi did not have a clear gender. Of points. But now, with such a slender, handsome, sharp-edged man standing in front of her, Chu Jinyao could no longer treat Qin Yi as a close friend, and suddenly became at a loss.

Qin Yi waited for a while and found Chu Jinyao lowered her head, not knowing what she was thinking. Qin Yi frowned secretly and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Nothing." Chu Jinyao slowly shook her head. After a while, he added: "I didn't alienate you, I just... I wasn't used to it for a while. Just wait until I get used to it."

"It's a big tone." Even if he dared to tell the prince that he was used to it, Qin Yi glanced at Chu Jinyao with a smile, then he lowered his head and continued to read the copybook. This time I turned it over to a satisfactory one. Qin Yi quickly turned it halfway, beckoning to Chu Jinyao without looking back, "Come here."

Chu Jinyao moved over and looked down at the copybook with Qin Yi: "Will you let me come here?"

"Yes. You are a beginner. You have to deal with tough, well-organized characters. The elegant style of running script is not suitable for you." Qin Yi took the pen from the pen holder, and he glanced down at Chu Jinyao." It depends on the price of your eyesight, research ink."

Afterwards, Chu Jinyao let out an "Oh" in hindsight, half rolled up her sleeves, and showed Qin Yi's wrist to Yanmo. Qin Yi was soaked in ink, his wrists hung in the air, and he penned the paper on the paper, and a line of regular and square lower letters appeared on the paper. These words are beautiful and elegant, clean and tidy, and they are not inferior to the copy in the copybook. Chu Jinyao looked at it for a while, and sighed, "It looks good."

Chu Jinyao has read Changxinghou's characters, and also read the older brother's characters from the old lady. It may be the best written by the young master. It has always been the pride of Mrs. Chu. Every time she comes, people will take them out. Look. But when Chu Jinyao met Qin Yi now, she suddenly felt that the young master had nothing to do with his bones, and it was Qin Yi who wrote well.

Chu Jinyao sighed with emotion: "How can you do everything?" Is it so scary that the things that spirits learn from people are just not long ago?

"If you have practiced a lot since you were young, you will be good." Qin Yi replied indifferently.

"Some brothers in our family have practiced handwriting since the age of seven and practiced extremely diligently every day. Why don't you see that they write well?" Chu Jinyao didn't believe Qin Yi's words very much. She carefully patted Qin Yi's words. Arm, leaned over and whispered, "I think you can learn everything fast, do you have any unique secrets? You secretly tell me, I won't pass it out!"

A low smile came from Qin Yi's chest. His entire chest was shaking. The laughter sounded low and seductive, which was obviously amused. He had to stop writing and wait until his hand was steady before he could continue to write: "Chu Jinyao, you are really a talent."

Twenty years after Jianxing, fifteen years later, the taste of the new year was gone, and all households gathered their minds and began to make a living for the new year. Those who work for large households must also clean up and return to the master's house.

In the Changxing Hou’s mansion, a girl with a peach-colored ruyi pattern jacket, an indigo pleated skirt, and a double bun on her head opened the curtain. She was just playing with people, with a smile on her face. At the sight of someone, her smile stagnated.

However, Qiuye was the one who had been rolling in the back house after all. She concealed her true reaction when she was very open, and welcomed the incoming person in courteously and kindly.

"Five girl, you can come early today. It's cold outside, come in!"

Chu Jinyao didn't get started directly. She learned the appearance she secretly saw, and gave Qiu Yefu a dress before she straightened up and said, "Sister Qiuye. Is mother in there?"

Chu Jinyao is a young lady after all, even if Qiu Ye is the maid beside Changxing Hou's wife Zhao, there is really no need to be so polite. Nodding to say hello is actually enough.

But Chu Jinyao didn't know, she knew, and she didn't know how to nod, and how to say hello. These things, which are as natural as breathing and drinking water to Miss Houzhai, are too difficult for Chu Jinyao.

In fact, Chu Jinyao should be the fourth girl, the second daughter of Mrs. Zhao in the Changxing Hou Mansion. But her fate was a bit bumpy. When she was born, she caught up with the Tatar side. The Zhao family gave birth to a daughter outside, and unexpectedly took her daughter by mistake, took another girl back home and named Chu Jinmiao. Chu Jinyao was just found back a few days ago, and Chu Jinmiao spent 13 years in the Hou Mansion, and had a deep relationship with his mother and servant-wife. His grandmother, Mrs. Chu, was not willing to let her granddaughter who had been in pain for 13 years go back. Just call the shots and let both girls stay. Chu Jinmiao continued to be the fourth girl, and Chu Jinyao lined up behind Chu Jinmiao and became the fifth girl.

Chu Jinyao grew up in a peasant family, and she didn't understand these Houmen etiquettes. She was afraid of others' jokes, so she secretly observed how others salute and spoke, and then figured out how to learn it by herself. As a result, she made many mistakes without knowing it, and she would like to send her greetings today.

Qiuye received Chu Jinyao's gift, and returned a gift, and hurriedly welcomed Chu Jinyao. As soon as the heavy sable curtains were put down, the temperature in the main hall was better after the cold wind was blocked, and the air-conditioning was no longer infused. Qiuye exhaled and said, "The wind is really big today. If the curtains are left open for a long time, it won't matter to us. If it's frozen, Madam will break."

Unexpectedly, Chu Jinyao quickly said: "I didn't mean it, I didn't expect it..."

"Five girls don't have to say that. You are the master, it's a big mistake, and the servants and maids are not doing well." After saying that, Qiu Ye scowled and stared at the person behind Chu Jinyao. "You two A little hoof, the fifth girl just came back, did you just come back? No matter how negligent you are, take care of your skin!"

The cloves and camellia behind Chu Jinyao hurriedly confessed their mistakes. Qiuye cursed a few more words before he eased his face and said, "Okay, if you make a mistake, you can correct it. You should pay attention next time when you are a errand!"

This time, Chu Jinyao also heard that her own behavior was inappropriate, and Qiu Ye couldn't talk about her, so she scolded the maid who followed her to please her.

Chu Jinyao felt sorry for her, and was hurting others for no reason. If she did a better job, how could she let others be scolded for her?

In fact, when Chu Jinyao thought so, she was still held back by her original family. In the big family of Houmen, the young ladies who have not left the pavilion are all golden branches and jade leaves. If you make a mistake, it will be a great punishment to ban your feet and copy the female ring. When, don’t you remind me as a slave? What's more, Dingxiang and Camellia were not wronged at all. Chu Jinyao had just been found back. She didn't know how to salute and say hello. Didn't the slaves like Dingxiang understand? As long as you remind one or two before going out, it won't happen like this. However, Clove is a boring gourd, unable to type a word with a pole, and Camellia's eyes wandering around, it is a heartbeat at first sight, let alone think about it for the master.

Qiuye sighed in her heart, but there was only so much she could do. Beating one or two across the floor, it was already seen that she was also sold from the peasant's house to the Hou Mansion. Jin Yao felt pity. No matter how much, Qiuye won't do it.

In high-ranking families, this is the reality and love.

Mother Zhang came out of the Xici room and was very unhappy: "Who opened the curtain just now, the lady just got up, and she still has sweat on her body. If the lady catches a cold, who will take care of it?"

Qiu Ye immediately bowed her head to plead guilty. Chu Jinyao was frightened, and said quickly: "If you don't care about Qiuye, I opened it when I came in."

Grandma Zhang has never seen Miss Jin rushing to confess her mistakes. Usually, a girl does not let people around her confess her guilt, or she has done something wrong, and she will not admit it herself. When she looks away, she will come forward. The most sinful, let alone the situation where Chu Jinyao was at fault. Let Chu Jinyao say this, it's really hard for Mother Zhang to have an episode. Even if she is the wife's dowry maid, she is also a slave. How can you say that the master is not?

Mother Zhang had to change her face immediately, and squeezed out a smile and said: "It turns out that the fifth girl is here. The fifth girl has asked her to come very early. Madam is doing her makeup inside, so come in."

Chu Jinyao thanked Mother Zhang, and walked towards the Xici room lightly.

Mother Zhang turned sideways to let Chu Jinyao go first, and then she followed. She looked at Chu Jinyao's back, as well as deliberately relaxed movements, and her heart was very complicated.

Chu Jinyao is a serious daughter, the proud daughter of heaven who crawled out of Madam Zhao's belly, why should he be so polite and careful? If you change to the fourth lady who grew up in front of your wife, she must have started talking and laughing as soon as she walked in. After that, she will run into the second room all the way, and fall into the wife's arms, no matter whether the wife is dressing up or not.绾发. But when she was replaced by Chu Jinyao, the wife's real daughter, Chu Jinyao, she was so cautious.

Grandma Zhang sighed. Who could have imagined that this kind of thing that I dared not write in the drama actually happened in the first-class gentry and prominent family in Taiyuan Mansion—Changxinghou Mansion.

In the late autumn of the nineteenth year of Jianxing, which was around October last year, the wife of Changxing Hou’s wife Zhao’s courtyard was drunk, and she began to talk big words with the servant woman in the other courtyard. She brags about herself. She is senior and knows many things about the wife, even the fourth girl is not the wife's biological child. She also knows.

When the servants heard this, they knew that the woman was bragging, who was the fourth girl, and that was the second youngest, the youngest child, who was born by the wife, and it hurts on the palm of her hand on weekdays. How could it not be her own? If it's a weekday, if the lady blows it, the people next to it should be happy, and the incident will be over. However, it happened that Lord Hou's long follower passed by that day and heard this sentence.

After Chang Sui went back, he immediately reported to Chang Xing Hou. Chang Xing Hou became annoyed. It was a serious crime to arrange the master at will. Then listen to what these women are planning? Changxinghou immediately asked the servants to bring these servants in the backyard, and he personally asked the guilt. The woman was frightened all of a sudden, she knelt on the ground and told Changxinghou what she knew.

Chang Xinghou originally didn't believe it, but he hesitated when the wife said that he had a nose and eyes. In the end, he sent his own people to investigate the matter in order to never end the trouble, so as to restore his daughter's innocence. As a result, it was found out after such an investigation. The fourth girl, the most favored daughter of the Hou Mansion, may not really be his daughter.

When Mrs. Hou's Zhao was pregnant, it was when the Tatars were offending the side, the iron hoof went south, and was approaching the capital. There was almost an accident in Beizhili, and Shanxi was even more devastated. Tatar was looted and looted in many places, and Taiyuan Mansion was no exception. Changxing Hou Mansion is a well-known wealthy family in Taiyuan Mansion, and it is naturally the target of these barbarians. At that time, Changxing Hou was leading his troops and could not take care of his family for a while, so the ladies and ladies of the Hou Mansion could only flee south in panic. Fortunately, Changxing Hou led his troops to regain Taiyuan soon, and the scattered family members were also taken back one after another. However, Mrs. Hou, Zhao's pregnant woman, was frightened and couldn't hold on to giving birth on the way to the south.
