Chapter 131: Insidious

Seeing that Chu Xinyu accepted it, Yang Lianxin breathed a sigh of relief and finally took a step. Her mother was right. She shouldn't be jealous of Chu Xinyu. The more jealous she was, the more she would do something wrong. She almost made a mistake just now, but fortunately she could correct it in time.

Zhubo was nervous when he saw Chu Xinyu accepting Yang Lianxin's purse. He remembered that last time she came to give the girl a fragrant pillow and changed it to a jade bone fan, but he didn't cherish it and even robbed the girl's credit. Now that she gave the girl's purse, she didn't know what to worry about.

But then I thought about it, the girl was not the former Wu Xia Amon, and would accept her cousin's purse. Perhaps it was a kindness. If she refused, she would be said to be unkind.

The two of them talked and laughed, and soon arrived at Qingliyuan. As soon as Qin's mother came out of the main room, she saw Chu Xinyu and remembered that day that she threw herself on the mountain road, and she was cheering up, but she was the master and a servant. Even if she was angry, she could only curse her in her heart.

"Miss Fifth, cousin." Qin's mother came forward to say hello, "The eldest lady just drank some porridge and is now asleep. Why don't you come back tomorrow?"

"It's okay, I'll go in and take a look." Chu Xinyu said.

"Girl!" Qin's mother blocked the door of the main room, and they couldn't get in.

Judging from this situation, is it that Yuan is not sick at all? He asked Chu Zhiyi to Anshantang to pay his respects and said in front of everyone that she was sick. Do you want her grandmother to sympathize with her?

"Are the fifth sister coming to see her mother?" Chu Jiayun appeared behind them, wearing a colorful plum blossom pattern gauze jacket, a moon-white dress, a drooping hair and a bun, a white jade hairpin and a beaded flower, and she looked pretty and cute.

Chu Xinyu turned around, looked at her, and said, "I heard that she is sick, come and have a look." Didn't she say she was with Yuan's bed? She was dressed so beautifully, and those who didn't know about it thought she was coming back to the banquet.

Chu Jiayun said: "Sister, you are intent. My mother has taken medicine at this time and has fallen asleep. Don't bother her. If you really care about her and want her to get better soon, please beg your grandmother and lift her confinement."

Chu Xinyu's expression was a little embarrassed: "Eighth Sister, if my plea is effective, my grandmother wouldn't have sent me to Puling Temple back then. My grandmother has always loved you and Liu Sister. You are much more effective than me."

"But you are the future wife of the Marquis of Peking. If you plead with mercy, why would my grandmother not listen to you?"

"You all say it's the future, isn't it, right? Besides, my grandmother also said that she will punish anyone who pleads." She was not that stupid to push her out as a gun.

Chu Jiayun narrowed her eyes and looked at Chu Xinyu. Somehow, she missed Chu Xinyu, who used to be hers, and now she really hates her. She always beat around the bush and refused her request.

She curled her lips and said, "Then forget it."

Chu Xinyu glanced at the room. It was very quiet, but she had a sensitive nose and had already smelled the aroma of the food inside, including Dongpo pork, crab roe and fresh mushrooms.

How could a depressed person eat these things? If she can eat, she means she is in good health. She then said, "Since my mother is asleep, I won't disturb you."

After saying that, she turned around and left.

Chu Xinyu left, and of course Yang Lianxin did not stay.

As soon as they left, Qin's mother lifted up the curtain and let Chu Jiayun go in first.

In the room, there were already food and soup in the main hall, which was very rich.

Yuan and Chu Jiating were already sitting at the table. Yuan's face was a little pale, and she was in good spirits. No matter how she looked, she didn't look like a sick person.

Mama Qin walked in and said, "Madam, they are gone."

Chu Jiating curled her lips dissatisfiedly: "I overestimated her and thought she would wait at the door until her mother woke up. It was because her mother had tolerated her in the past. No matter what, she was raised by her mother to grow up."

In the past, my mother was sick and uncomfortable and didn't want others to disturb her. Chu Xinyu would wait outside the door for her mother to wake up, but now she hasn't even been waiting for half a quarter of an hour.

Yuan said coldly: "She is not someone we can control now, so how can she be compared with the past."

Chu Jiayun was fanning the flames and said, "Mother, the fifth sister is very capable. The servant who was guarding the gate saw that she was sent back from the carriage of the Marquis of Peking today, and she saw her entering the door before leaving."

Yuan's eyebrows were raised, and he remembered something, and said with hatred: "Shaunting! She looks like her mother, who looks pure and harmless on the surface, but in fact she seduces men everywhere."

Chu Jiating said: "Mother, I bribed the maid around her, but I didn't find anything useful. It's difficult to prove that she is fake."

Yuan rubbed his eyebrows and felt a little irritated. If she hadn't wanted to cling to the Duke of Ying's Mansion, she wouldn't have taken Chu Xinyu back. But now she regretted it too late. Not only did the person she took it back didn't help, she also designed to lose the housekeeper's right.

She was very unwilling to give up. It was the housekeeper who had been working hard for most of her life. In order to get it back again, regardless of whether Chu Xinyu was real or not, she had to find a way to make everyone think that she was fake.

"Mama Qin, have you sent someone to investigate Puling Temple back?" The most important thing is that Puling Temple is here. In the past two years, they don't know what Chu Xinyu has done there and why it has changed so much.

Mama Qin said, "I haven't come back yet, I have to wait."

Yuan said: "You can't wait any longer, it will be even more difficult to deal with her."

Chu Jiating's eyes were deep and she had a plan, saying, "Mother, I thought of a way to prove that she is fake. I don't know if it's feasible?"

"What's the solution?" Yuan asked.

Chu Jiating leaned into Yuan's ear and whispered a few words. When Yuan heard this, she frowned, "This method is not good. It's too dangerous. If it is discovered, everything we have done will be wasted."

Chu Jiating said: "Mother, no, we just expose her identity. If she is not the real Chu Xinyu, then she will be guilty of deceiving the monarch, and her marriage with the Marquis of Peking will not be established. Your housekeeper's right can be said to be a natural way to frame you with the second house designer and push the second house to the forefront, so that no one will compete with you for the housekeeper's right in the future."

Chu Jiayun blinked her innocent eyes and asked in confusion: "Sister, what are the benefits of Chu Xinyu and the Marquis of Beiping? Do you also like the Marquis of Beiping?"

"I just can't stand her marrying well, can't it?" Chu Xinyu's original identity was higher than her. If she married the Marquis of Peking again, unless she married a prince, she would not be able to be better than her no matter who she married.

"Oh, I understand." Chu Jiayun raised her eyebrows in a clear way, said nothing, and picked up her chopsticks and took the food to eat.

"Madam, I think the Sixth Girl's advice is feasible. You are confined to copy Buddhist scriptures and family precepts. I will do these things. Even if something happens, it will not implicate you." Mama Qin stood beside Yuan and listened to Chu Jiating's plan. After thinking about it, she put forward her own opinions.

Yuan thought for a moment and nodded, "Then you go and do it. Remember to do it cleanly and don't leave any handles, especially Chu Xinyu, who is too smart now."

When she first took action, she didn't know how she discovered it. She could not speak out and make plans. If she didn't get rid of her, Yuan would not be able to sleep for a whole day.

"And." Yuan reminded his two daughters with a gentle voice: "Don't worry about this anymore. Dress up well and give more famous ladies and noble ladies in your daily life. It will be beneficial to you in the future."

Chu Jiating always remembered Yuan's words. No matter how much she hated Chu Xinyu, she still wanted to be a pair of harmonious sisters with her on the surface. Since Yuan didn't want her to interfere, she no longer cared about this matter and waited for the result with peace of mind.

In order to restore freedom as soon as possible, Chu Jiating stayed up late at night to copy the family motto. It took her a day and two nights. It was just dawn and she dropped the last stroke. Ten times of the family motto was finally completed.

She looked at the thick stack of paper in front of her and secretly sweared in her heart that she would return what Chu Xinyu had to bear in her as it was!

"Girl, the rumors about Chu Xinyu robbing Miss Fu Er are getting more and more intense. Some people also said that the Hou of Peking originally wanted the emperor to marry him and Miss Fu Er, so he would say that at the banquet. If he knew that Chu Xinyu's paintings were better than Miss Fu Er, he would definitely not say that. So everyone said that Chu Xinyu picked up Miss Fu Er's marriage and asked her to return it. But some people said that Miss Fu Er was unruly and secretly interacted with men in private, consenting to each other for life, and his reputation fell to the bottom in an instant."

When Chu Jiating's maid Bingyan came in to wash her, she told Chu Jiating about the rumors that were everywhere.

Chu Jiating raised the corners of her lips coldly, "This handful of sewage should be poured on Chu Xinyu, but that's good. Didn't she want to get along with the Fu family? These rumors completely made her beat the Fu family."

Bingyan said: "Miss, do we want to add another fire?"

Chu Jiating said slowly: "If it was said that Miss Fu Er was disseminated by Chu Xinyu, how would you say the Fu family treat her?"

Bingyan smiled viciously: "Then she offended the Fu family completely."

"I heard that Miss Fu Er has a brother who protects her sister like a demon. You said that if he knew that all the grievances his sister had suffered were given by Chu Xinyu, what would he do to her?"

"Girl, I know what to do."

Chu Jiating's lips slowly curled up, "Although my mother told me not to interfere, I can't bear to give up this opportunity. You can do it well. When things are done, you will definitely benefit you."

Bingyan said: "Girl, I don't want any benefits. I just want to avenge Bingxue!" Bingxue is her sister. She was killed by Chu Xinyu. She must avenge this revenge.

"Okay, very good." Chu Jiating nodded with satisfaction. There is hatred and hatred. With this hatred, she will not be able to shrink her hands and feet when doing things. She needs such a person now.

Bingyan looked at the family precepts copied on the desk and asked, "Girl, are you going to send them to the old lady?"

Chu Jiating walked to the window, looked at the rising sun, remembered her mother's words, and said, "No, I won't send it for the time being."

Let’s talk about Chu Xinyu. She didn’t sleep well last night. There was a sudden loud noise in the window in the middle of the night, waking her from her dream. At night, bamboo was guarding her, so she immediately went to observe. It was because she didn’t close the window and the wind blew open the window.

For some reason, cold sweat broke out on Chu Xinyu's forehead. She wiped it gently and then lay down again, but somehow, she suddenly had a premonition of disaster, which was very ominous.

Lying on the bed, she could no longer sleep and always felt panicked.

When I got out of bed in the morning, my eyes turned black and I almost hit the bed frame.

After washing up, I drank a bowl of white porridge and ate two steamed buns, and took Danqing to pay homage to Old Lady Chu. I didn’t expect to see Chu Jiaqi. Didn’t she be punished to kneel on the ancestral hall for ten days? Now, she has been released after just a few days?

"Girl Yu, you have a good face. Didn't you sleep well last night?" Old Mrs. Chu saw Chu Xinyu come in and saw that her complexion was not as rosy as before, and she was a little pale.

Chu Xinyu said: "Well, I feel a little dizzy when I get up."

"Why do you want to see the doctor? Dizziness is a big deal or a small matter?" The second wife said with concern.

"No need, I'm an old problem, I'm just a little anemia." Chu Xinyu's body was seriously injured and his vitality was severely damaged. He has not recovered yet, and there are occasional anemia.

Old Mrs. Chu turned around and ordered to Madam Sun, "Madam Sun, go to my warehouse to get a ginseng for Madam Yu, and let her take it for a good replenishment."

Madam Sun was surprised and hurriedly said, "Last time you asked me to take two plants to give gifts to the eldest lady, but now there is only one hundred-year-old snowman ginseng left in the warehouse."

Old Mrs. Chu didn't expect that there was only one plant left, but since she said it, there was no reason to take it back, so she said, "One plant is one plant."

"Okay." Madam Sun responded, and then went to the warehouse to get ginseng.

No one present expected that the old lady was so willing to do so. The century-old snowman ginseng is a precious medicinal herb and it is hard to buy even if you have money.

The second and third wife were not jealous when they saw that the old lady was kind to Chu Xinyu. Chu Xinyu looked thin and weak. Even if the old lady didn't give her ginseng, they knew that she had anemia and planned to give her some supplements. The motherless child was so pitiful.

Chu Jiaqi was so jealous when he saw it. If it were her in the past, she would definitely jump out to object, but now she is not qualified to say anything. She was able to walk out of the ancestral hall today, and it was because she decided to return the Paiyu Tower to Chu Xinyu after listening to her mother's words.

Unexpectedly, before she could speak, Chu Xinyu arrived, her grandmother gave her a hundred-year-old snowman ginseng without thinking. When her aunt gave birth to a younger brother, she almost had blood crumbs and her vitality was greatly damaged. She didn't see her grandmother bringing the snowman ginseng to nourish her body.

This is identity, this is value, because Chu Xinyu is the future wife of the Marquis of Peking, the eldest princess' future daughter-in-law, and her aunt is just a concubine, so she will never be someone else's concubine in the future, and if she wants to be, she will be the original wife's wife.

"Grandma, you'd better leave it to yourself. I'm young and don't need to be supplemented too much." Chu Xinyu didn't expect that Old Mrs. Chu was willing to give her snowman ginseng, and her mood was extremely complicated.

The second wife said: "You should replenish your anemia, and snowman ginseng is just right."

The third lady also advised her to accept it. Anyway, it was given by the old lady, and if she didn't want it, she would be a fool. Especially when she heard from Madam Sun that Yuan took two to give gifts, she was really afraid that Chu Xinyu would refuse and would get a better deal in the future.

Old Mrs. Chu said, "You will accept what I gave to you."

She felt much guilt towards Chu Xinyu. A snowman ginseng plant could not make up for anything. Mei once had a thousand-year-old ginseng, but she gave it to Yuan. A hundred-year-old ginseng was nothing.
