Chapter 121: Challenge

"Oh, I thought someone was here. It turned out that the future Madam of the Marquis of Peking was here." Princess Jing'an came in, stared at Chu Xinyu with her head raised, and her tone was extremely sour and sarcastic.

When Chu Xinyu saw her, she frowned slightly, and she felt like she was still in dispersed. She could meet her anywhere.

The most hateful thing is to salute her, but she still gave them a blessing when she is unhappy, "Xinyu greets all the girls."

Fu Yingwu also bowed her knees and gave a blessing.

Lan Yi frowned when she saw Princess Jing'an. When she came back yesterday, she had heard about what happened in Yufang Pavilion from Zhubo. She knew that the princess was a troublemaker. She must have been unwilling to accept what happened yesterday, so she stared at her, afraid that she would not be good to the girl.

Because Fu Yingwu is here, Princess Jing'an is not good at posing for airs, and waves his hand with a proud look on his face.

Lin Yu and Funing County Lord nodded slightly at her.

"Huh, what is this?" Princess Jing'an's eyes swept to the brocade bag on the tray, stepped forward, reached out to pick up an indigo brocade bag. The brocade bag was exquisitely embroidered, and emitted a faint fragrance, which made people feel comfortable to smell.

Fu Yingwu explained: "This is a gift from Sister Yu to our sister."

"It's so ugly! Such a scent bag can be given, it's so embarrassing!" After speaking, she threw the brocade bag out the window, and then her arm was held by Lan Yi, who was paying attention to her every move, and she couldn't move.

"I didn't say I wanted to give you it, you're so passionate!" Chu Xinyu came over and took the brocade bag from her and signaled Lan Yi to let her go. People like her were the most vengeful, afraid that she would take her anger on Lan Yi.

Although this brocade bag was not embroidered by her, it was prepared by her second aunt. It was a care from her, and she could not tolerate others ruining it.

Chu Xinyu put the brocade bag back on the tray and then turned it to Fu Yingwu's hand.

"You..." Princess Jing'an stared at her eyes. Chu Xinyu never gave her face, which made her very unhappy.

She cheated tens of thousands of taels yesterday. Fortunately, her mother paid the silver for her and filled the matter with it. Otherwise, she would definitely be punished if her father knew about it.

Later, she heard Fu Yingfu say that Fu Yingwu had sent a post to invite Chu Xinyu to the mansion to enjoy the flowers, and she also wanted to go and ask Fu Yingfu to invite Lin Yu, the lord of Funing County, and several other daughters of aristocratic families.

She came very early today and had never seen Chu Xinyu. She also knew that she had come too and did not dare to come. Later, she saw Fu Yingyan bring her cousin Qin here, and she realized that Chu Xinyu had also arrived, but she just went to Fu Yingwu's Xiaoxiang Pavilion.

I thought I knew she was coming and deliberately avoided me, but she was not as good as hers, so I deliberately said that I wanted to attend the courtyard of the Fu girl.

Fu Yinghua knew her thoughts very well, and took them to Xiaoxiang Pavilion without saying anything.

Seeing Chu Xinyu's face, she couldn't even control herself. She just wanted to sarcastically say a few words to her, but she didn't expect that her maid didn't take her seriously. She dared to grab her hand and was tired of living.

When Princess Jing'an was about to attack, Lin Yu smiled and pulled her, whispered: "We are all here to visit, don't be rude! We are well-educated, not shrews in the market."

Lin Yu was very surprised when he heard that Chu Xinyu came to Duke E's mansion. If Fu Yingfu had not sent a post to invite her to come and enjoy the flowers today, she would not have gone out. Yesterday, when she was in Yufang Pavilion, she heard from the Funing County Lord that Jing'an was cheated by Chu Xinyu. She was the first to cause trouble. She was so strong and brainless that she would have been touched by someone.

Because I have been playing with her since I was a child, I know what kind of personality she has, so I don’t feel sympathy for her.

Lin Yu reminded him that Princess Jing'an's anger suddenly dropped by half. Yes, she is a princess and is well-educated. Yesterday, the mother also scolded her, saying that she was too impulsive and irritable, so that she could easily control her mind, so that she would be calm in her future work and avoid getting angry.

Chu Xinyu was too lazy to pay attention to Princess Jing'an. She would appear in Duke E's mansion. I guess Xu Zhilan called him. She was there yesterday and watched a scene. Even though she knew that she was in a bad relationship with Princess Jing'an, she still brought her to Xiaoxiang Pavilion. It shows how much she wanted them to fight. Maybe this is how she wanted to deal with herself and borrow the hands of others!

She would not take it seriously as a Princess Jing'an, and today everyone is a guest. She just needs to be a good guest. Moreover, she doesn't believe that Princess Jing'an dares to eat herself in the Duke of Hubei's Mansion!

Then he smiled and said to Xu Zhilan, "Miss Second is here too. It just so happens that you sisters are gathered here. This is a small gift I have given you."

After speaking, she handed the brocade bag on the tray to Fu Yinghuan, "You choose one."

Xu Zhilan is the master and Chu Xinyu is the guest. She couldn't brush her face. She smiled and picked up a rose-colored brocade bag, and then said thank you.

Chu Xinyu put the tray in front of Fu Yingyan and smiled, "Miss Four, this is yours."

"Thank you, Sister Yu, this brocade bag is very beautiful! Did you embroider it?" Fu Yingyan couldn't put it down with the brocade bag. This is double-sided embroidery. This needle method is very special, not what she usually learns.

Chu Xinyu did not hide it and said, "Of course not. My embroidery worker is so bad that I can't make it. This is made by the embroidery girl in our mansion." Zhongyi's mansion has its own embroidery workshop, which has always been taken care of by the second wife, and the clothes they wear are also made by the embroidery workshop.

The Funing County Lord joked: "Miss Chu is too generous to one and the other. They have gifts, why don't we?"

She has nothing to do with Chu Xinyu, she just has a pure mentality of watching the show.

Chu Xinyu's identity is not as good as them now, but if she becomes the wife of the Marquis of Peking in the future, it will be different. Therefore, she does not want to offend either side.

"Why don't you? What do you think is this?" She pointed to the durian pastry on the table and some other pastries, all produced by the Treasure Store.

Durian was the best fruit in the Xu Dynasty and was produced in Southeast Asia. However, a batch of durians were tributed to the court every year. The emperor would send one to important ministers. It was difficult to buy it in normal times. Even if there were, the price was extremely expensive and not something that ordinary people could eat.

Therefore, the durian crisps at Zhenbao Store are sold out every day and are sold in limited quantities.

When Chu Xinyu went to buy it, the durian crisps were just freshly released. It happened that there were not many people today, and there were ten people in front of her. When it came to her, she bought ten boxes by herself, and she almost bought them one-third of them.

In fact, when Princess Jing'an and the others came in, they smelled the fragrance of durians, especially the Prince of Funing County. She had long been eyeing these durian sauces. No wonder when she asked the maid to buy them, she said that they were sold out. It turned out that they were all bought by her.

Only Xu Zhilan does not eat durian. Chu Xinyu knows that she is allergic to durian. She just needs to eat a little bit and will have rashes all over her body.

So when she first came in, she found that Xu Zhilan was covering her nose. Ah Mother liked to eat durian the most, and she was the same. I wonder how did Xu Zhilan explain to her brother if she didn't eat durian? Because her brother knew that she liked to eat durian the most, she once bought her durian crisps at a treasure store, and used it to ice, and asked someone to travel thousands of miles to bring her.

"Smell!" Princess Jing'an pinched her nose and said deliberately: "I'm so embarrassed to give it to someone if you sniff it like this? You won't eat it even if you throw it to a dog. It's disgusting! You won't throw it away!"

"Don't talk nonsense if you don't know!" Chu Xinyu looked at her and sneered: "Durian has extremely high nutritional value. Eating one durian is better than eating three chickens. Regular consumption can strengthen the body, replenish blood and qi, nourish yin, and be especially suitable for women to eat. It has the effects of anti-aging, promoting blood circulation and dispelling cold, and relieving menstrual pain. Otherwise, why do you think the Queen Mother can maintain her youthful and beautiful appearance? I heard that she often eats durian. Why? Do you want to say that the Queen Mother eats things that even dogs do not eat?"

The last sentence blocked Princess Jing'an. The Empress Dowager even ate anything. You said that she would not eat it if she threw it to a dog. Isn't this saying that the Empress Dowager is not even as good as a dog?

No wonder Lin Huan and Tong Zhen were so angry that she was so angry that she was so angry that this person was so quick that no one could keep up with it. Especially when she said a lot of things that eating durian would play, how could this person know so much, or was she talking nonsense?

But the Queen Mother really likes to eat durian, and she is in her sixties now, but she still looks like she is in her early forties. Could it be that she really had the effect of eating durian?

Who doesn’t love beauty? When they heard Chu Xinyu say that durian has such good effects, they were moved. The Funing County Lord was very rude. She was the first to go up to get durian crisps.

Lin Yu and Fu Yingyan also went to get it for food.

Princess Jing'an wanted to eat it, but she just disliked it. If she went to get it for food, wouldn't it be a slap in her mouth? Xu Zhilan hated the smell of durian, so she could only endure it here and said, "You eat it slowly, I'll go out and wait for you."

After saying that, she wanted to leave, but was pulled by Chu Xinyu.

"Miss Second Girl, this durian crispy tastes good and is very fragrant. Do you want to try one?" As she said that, she took a piece and handed it to Xu Zhilan.

Xu Zhilan pursed her lips tightly, opened her hand, and ran out quickly. Then she faintly heard a sound of vomiting. Princess Jing'an shaved a fierce look at Chu Xinyu and followed her to chase her out.

The Funing County Lord ate durian and the smell of durian was still in her mouth. She was afraid that Fu Yinghua would feel uncomfortable when she went out, so she did not chase her out.

Fu Yingwu was afraid that Chu Xinyu would misunderstand, so she explained: "Sister Yu, my second sister did not mean it. She is sensitive to durian and cannot smell the smell of durian. And if you eat it a little, you will get rash all over your body."

"Oh!" Chu Xinyu raised his eyebrows lightly and pretended to be curious: "Have you been since childhood?"

"It seems that no, my fifth brother said that she used to like durian very much, but later she didn't know why, but she suddenly became allergic to durian. Not only could she not eat it, but she could not smell it."

"She has no health problems, why can she eat before, why can't she eat now? It's so strange." Chu Xinyu said: "I used to hate eating, but I like it now. If your second sister is allergic to eat, it should be because she would be allergic to eat when she was a child."

"Yes, my fifth brother also finds it strange, but my second sister said that the doctor said that she had fallen into the water and had been invaded by cold physical condition. She would have a rash after taking durian."

When Chu Xinyu heard this, his eyes flashed, and then he asked quietly: "Which doctor said it? Will he make a mistake?"

Xu Zhilan's explanation turned out to be like this. It seems that she doesn't know that eating durian can increase the body temperature and is an ideal supplement for people with cold constitutions.

If she knew, she would definitely not say that. That's right. In the Xu Dynasty, durian was a good fruit, which was difficult for ordinary people to eat. Perhaps Xu Zhilan rarely ate this fruit in his previous life, otherwise, she would not have known it. As for the people of the Fu family, did they doubt Xu Zhilan's statement? Or did they also know the effect of eating durian?

"It's Doctor Yang, he said."

It seems that this imperial doctor Yang is either a quack doctor or a bribed by Xu Zhilan, so she has to be careful in the future.

When asked about important information, Chu Xinyu did not continue this topic. She was afraid of being suspicious, so she looked at the Funing County Lord and saw that the box of durian crisps in front of her had been eaten up by her. It seemed that she was also a foodie.

Chu Xinyu and Lin Yu looked at each other, and Lin Yu shrugged helplessly. In addition to eating, the county lord of Funing likes to collect all kinds of fans. Fortunately, her physique is the kind of person who will not be fat no matter how she eats.

Fu Yingwu is the master. She originally invited Chu Xinyu to enjoy the flowers. Because Princess Jing'an and the others came, they were afraid that she would make things difficult for Chu Xinyu. Now that the two met, what should have happened happened, so there was no need to avoid her. So she suggested: "Sister Yu, I will take you to see my garden to enjoy the flowers. Although there are not as many varieties as Prince Chu's mansion, they are still blooming brilliantly."

Seeing that it was still early, Chu Xinyu agreed.

Lin Yu and Funing also followed them and did not go to meet Princess Jing'an and the others.

The garden of Duke E's Mansion is not big, but many precious flowers are planted, mostly peonies, tea mountains and chrysanthemums. In the garden, Princess Jing'an and Xu Zhilan are also there. There are several daughters of aristocratic families around them, two Chu Xinyu met at the Hundred Flowers Banquet, and two she didn't know.

At this moment, they were happily playing with the pot throwing, and Chu Xinyu glanced at it, without interest.

But some people didn't want to let her go. Seeing her coming, Princess Jing'an seemed to have forgotten the unhappiness in Xiaoxiang Pavilion just now, and raised her hand to them, "Hey, come here to play together, let's compete for the win or loss."

Who is competing with you for winning or losing? Chu Xinyu is not interested at all, and he is about to leave with Fu Yingwu's hand in his hand.

"Chu Xinyu, stop me!" Princess Jing'an shouted at her and said, "Are you afraid of losing to me, so you dare not come over?"

Chu Xinyu turned around and said, "It's not that I don't dare, I'm afraid that someone can't afford to lose!"

Princess Jing'an looked at her and sneered: "Who said I can't afford to lose, let alone, are you sure you will win?"

Other princess Jing'an may not have confidence, but throwing the pot is what she is most proud of. She has been playing this since she was a child. When she was five years old, she could throw three arrows into the pot even if she closed her eyes.

In Jinjing City, the technique of throwing pots was only targeted at women. She recognized the second place and did not dare to recognize the first place.

Chu Xinyu replied calmly: "I'm afraid I'll disappoint the princess. I'm here to enjoy the flowers today, not for the competition."

There was a girl next to Princess Jing'an but she provoked: "I don't want to compete but I'm afraid of losing. Isn't this arguing?"

Fu Yingwu couldn't help but speak, "Princess Jing'an, throwing a pot is your interest. You can't impose your own interests on others. It's hard for you to force others like this!"

"I think you are a talented woman, with eighteen martial arts skills and proficient in everything. I invite you to compete and respect you, but now it seems that I am so proud of you, and you are just like this!" Princess Jing'an said arrogantly.
