Chapter 172: Catching up
She was in a great mood when she returned to the next door from the secret door, but unexpectedly, she opened the door and saw an unexpected person.
No, it is precisely three people.
They were King Xiao Jingsheng of Jin, Liu Xie and Fu Guanjue of the Duke of Wei's Mansion. Liu Xie and Yang Qianjun were cousins. Seeing her there, they naturally came over to say hello, and the two of them with him also came.
This is a private room, not an elegant room. The difference between a private room and a private room is that the wall between the private room and the corridor is opened with hollow carved screens. Each room has only a round table, and the decoration is also elegant, but from the corridor, through the hollow screen, you can vaguely see the people inside.
Liu Xie would see Yang Qianjun, who was looking in unintentionally. He felt that the figure inside was familiar, so he came in and saw that it was Yang Qianjun, her maid, and Lan Yi. He recognized Lan Yi as Chu Xinyu's maid.
He came in and said hello, and asked her if she had come with Chu Xinyu.
Yang Qianjun didn't expect to meet them by chance. Fortunately, Chu Xinyu and King Qin were not here. She nodded with the bullet and said that Chu Xinyu went to the bathroom.
All the Zuixianglou business is so good, not only because of the unique dishes here and the taste, but also because the environment here is unique. In addition to the elegant decoration of the private rooms here, there is also a separate bathroom, which is very clean inside. Unlike other restaurants, they are all set up in the backyard and are public.
Chu Xinyu just came out of the bathroom, and there was a secret door in the bathroom, connected to the previous elegant room. So when she came out, no one suspected that she was coming from another room.
Chu Xinyu was surprised to see them, but he didn't expect that they would all come to Zuixianglou for dinner and went up to say hello to them one by one.
When Yang Qianjun saw Chu Xinyu coming out, she started to drive people out before they could speak politely, "Which room is you in? Why can't you go there? The business here is good, don't let someone steal your room."
Liu Xie smiled and said, "That's not right, we can set a table and have a meal."
"Have you heard that men and women are not allowed to kiss each other?" Yang Qianjun got up and grabbed Liu Xie's hand and pushed it out, "Go and go, I will tell Xinyu my daughter's private words later. It's inconvenient for you guys to do it."
Liu Xie stood still, "What private words? You can't go back and say it, but you insist on talking here in a mixed place."
"I'm so happy! Are you leaving?"
"If you don't leave, we will set up a table." Xiao Jingsheng said. He sat down and didn't want to move. His smiling peach blossom eyes looked at Chu Xinyu.
Chu Xinyu frowned slightly, feeling unhappy. He was about to say something, but the guy came just in time. Before she could speak, she heard Xiao Jingsheng say to the guy: "Get out the private room we ordered, let's have a meal here."
"You are so shameless, we..." Yang Qianjun did not give in because Xiao Jingsheng was the prince and was concerned about his identity. Moreover, she originally ordered this private room, so she has the right to determine who will stay or leave.
Chu Xinyu didn't want them to stay, but she didn't want them to be suspicious, so she interrupted Yang Qianjun and said, "It's just a meal, let's go together."
"It's still Miss Chu Wu who is polite. You have to learn from him." Liu Xie reached out and tapped Yang Qianjun's forehead. Their cousins usually like to fight, but their relationship is particularly good.
Yang Qianjun won't be restrained just because there are outsiders. She slapped his hand away with disgust, "If I don't know etiquette, you should go back and read the book of sages." It's because she understands that she doesn't want them to stay.
Because three men joined in, Chu Xinyu had only met them two or three times and was not very familiar with them, so she sat quietly aside, and Lan Yi was waiting beside her.
Xiao Jingsheng sat down next to Chu Xinyu and looked for topics to talk to her. Chu Xinyu thought that there were many opportunities for the two to meet in the future, so it was not easy to give him a cold face. He would respond to his topics if he could. If he didn't want to, he would laugh, neither flatter or arrogant.
The atmosphere was pretty good for this meal because Yang Qianjun and Liu Xie cousins were present. Chu Xinyu didn't eat much, and she said less during the meal. Xiao Jingsheng was teasing her and even put a piece of meat in her bowl.
Chu Xinyu frowned lightly, and was very unhappy with Xiao Jingsheng's actions. This was too close, not to mention that she had a small obsession with cleanliness. A strange look flashed in Fu Guanjue's eyes, sitting opposite him.
Chu Xinyu did not touch the dishes that Xiao Jingsheng picked for her. After eating a few bites of rice, he put down his chopsticks.
Seeing this, Lan Yi quickly handed her a cup of warm water to rinse her mouth.
Xiao Jingsheng deliberately picked up food for Chu Xinyu. He wanted to see what she would do, but he didn't expect that she would ignore it directly. Not only did she not eat the food he picked, but she simply put down her chopsticks and refused to eat it. Then he asked, "Do you have any objections to me?"
I always have a special feeling for herself, that is, I really want to conquer her, but this girl seems to be afraid to be interested in him, unlike other girls, who have shiny eyes when she sees him.
Since she met her at the Duke of E last time, she has not seen her, but her news always comes to his ears, such as those rumors, such as Lin Chenyao protecting her in the Ministry of Justice, and she is so proud of herself.
He became more and more interested in this woman, but she gave it to Lin Chenyao, and he was not able to offend him, so he blatantly snatched him up, so he had to flirt with her privately.
Chu Xinyu said in surprise: "How dare I have any objection to Your Highness? The little woman is flattered and it is too late. It's just that the little woman has a low appetite and happens to be full."
Xiao Jingsheng didn't believe her words, so he raised his eyebrows and said, "Is that so, why do I feel that you are disgusting me?"
I really know myself. I really dislike you. But Chu Xinyu didn't dare to say this. She really felt uncomfortable with this meal. There was a Xiao Jingsheng next to her constantly teasing her. There was a sarcastic look on the other side swept her from time to time. In this situation, she was afraid of her stomachache, so she simply said she was full.
Although Yang Qianjun talked and quarreled with Liu Xie, she had always been paying attention to the interaction between Chu Xinyu and Xiao Jingsheng. When she saw Xiao Jingsheng picking up food for Chu Xinyu, she wanted to speak out, but she just held it back when she saw Chu Xinyu ignore him.
Now that she saw that the situation was not right, she quickly spoke up and said, "Your Highness, you don't know. Xinyu didn't want to come at first. I forced her to try the drunk duck here with me. Don't force her. Her sausage-like appetite. If you force her, she must have stomachache when she goes back. You don't want her to get sick after having a meal with you, right?"
Yang Qianjun's words were told by King Jin that Chu Xinyu is not the kind of woman who is uneasy and can be as frivolous as a woman. Besides, she has a bad stomach and doesn't eat much, otherwise she will easily get sick and you won't make things difficult for a weak woman.
Seeing this, Liu Xie followed Yang Qianjun's words and said, "Since that's the case, then don't force it. If you really get sick, it would be our sin."
He began to regret it. He had not known that King Jin was interested in Chu Xinyu before, so he said that he wanted to play tables with them. But just now, he saw King Jin's eyes hardly leaving Chu Xinyu, always making fun of her and picking up food for her, and he felt something was wrong.
Chu Xinyu is Lin Chenyao's fiancée. Is the King of Jin trying to steal the marriage if he does this?
How could Fu Guanjue miss this opportunity to fear that the world will not be in chaos, and said: "Your Highness is so proud of her to pick up food for her, but she refuses it but looks down on Your Highness!"
Since Chu Xinyu turned defeat into victory in the Ministry of Justice that day, he has even disliked this woman.
That day, Lin Chenyao defended her in front of everyone. After Fu Yinghua learned about this, she was depressed for the past two days. Her smile disappeared and she felt as if she was pulled away and angry. He looked at it.
But the life of the culprit was like a fish in water. Even the King of Jin favored her. Why did she?
"Why do you say this?" Yang Qianjun glared at Fu Guanjue angrily and said bluntly: "I know you feel uncomfortable, so I deliberately said Xinyu. Don't your second sister likes the Marquis of Peking? Now that he was given a marriage to Xinyu by the emperor, you feel unbalanced and want to vent your anger for the sister. I understand, but you can't just say that in front of the palace.
Otherwise, I suspect that you would like Xinyu to eat the food that Your Highness picked up for her. This way, you can tell others that King Jin and Xinyu had an affair, so that your second sister would be with the Marquis of Peking."
When his thoughts were expressed, Fu Guanjue's face suddenly looked ugly.
Liu Xie held his forehead and said his cousin was really straightforward. Even if you knew this was the case in your heart, you couldn't say it in front of the palace. Fu Guanjue was relatively small in size. If he was the one he hated, he would probably hate him for the rest of his life.
He glanced at Xiao Jingsheng carefully, afraid that he would make him angry because of Yang Qianjun's direct words, but the man smiled and his emotions seemed not to be affected, so he let go of the worry in his heart.
Xiao Jingsheng picked up the cup in front of him and raised it to Chu Xinyu, "I am not considering it well. I hope the fifth lady of Chu will not mind. I will use tea instead of wine to apologize to you."
After saying that, he drank all the tea in the cup, then stood up without saying a word and walked out.
When Liu Xie saw Xiao Jingsheng leaving, he and Fu Guanjue didn't stay, so he stood up and said goodbye. When he left, he said, "We invite you to eat this meal slowly."
When Fu Guanjue left, he glanced at Chu Xinyu coldly. Chu Xinyu met his gaze and sneered at him. Both of them looked at each other disliked each other.
After they left, Yang Qianjun asked Chu Xinyu: "Does King Jin have something interesting to you?"
Chu Xinyu said: "I don't care about what he is about me. I just know that I don't like him."
Yang Qianjun suddenly felt relieved and said, "Many girls in the capital like him, especially his peach blossom eyes, which are like a seductive soul when they smile. I'm so afraid that you will be attracted by him."
Lan Yi covered her mouth and smiled, "My future son-in-law is much more attractive than him. My girl hates men with peach blossoms the most."
Yang Qianjun nodded and joked: "Yes, yes, yes, 沪文官网 is the most attractive. Look at your girl's face is red."
Chu Xinyu denied: "I talk nonsense, because the private room is a little stuffy and my face is hot."
"It's all my own people, and if you blush, we won't laugh at you."
Yang Qianjun raised her head and smiled.
Chu Xinyu was too lazy to argue with her and asked Lan Yi to ask her friend to come in and check the bill.
After the guy came in, he said that the meal money for this table had been settled.
Yang Qianjun said: "So my cousin is serious, he invited me."
Chu Xinyu didn't say anything.
They sat for a while before leaving the restaurant.
The Yang family's carriage had not arrived yet, and the two stood by the road waiting.
"Do you have any other place to go? Or go back home?" Yang Qianjun asked.
"Go home."
"It's too early to go back now, so why don't we go shopping? Wouldn't we go to the farm to play tomorrow? I want to buy some things for later use."
Chu Xinyu thought for a while, nodded and said, "Okay."
At this time, the Yang family's carriage drove over, and Yang Qianjun got in first.
When Chu Xinyu was about to go in, he heard someone calling her behind him. He turned around and saw that Chu Jiating, Chu Jiayun, and two girls she didn't know were looking at her.
Chu Xinyu's heart skipped a beat, and Lan Yi also shouted nervously, "Girl..."
Miss Six and Miss Eight should be in the mansion, how could they come to Zuixianglou?!
Standing here, his eyes seemed to catch a traitor.
Chu Jiating looked at her, then looked at the restaurant next to her, playing with the embroidered handkerchief in her hand and said, "Don't sister Wu want to explain a few words?"
Chu Xinyu said expressionlessly: "There is nothing to explain."
She is clear and clear, not to mention that she is not alone. Besides, this is a restaurant, a place to eat, and a place to sleep, so she is not afraid of going back to complain.
Chu Jiayun walked over and said, "Didn't the fifth sister go to the Yang Mansion? Why did you come to the restaurant? Who are you dating inside? Oh, it seems like we saw that King Jin had just come out of it, it wouldn't be you..." She blinked her eyes, and her eyes were full of curiosity.
Chu Jiayun and Chu Jiating and Yuan's cousins were shopping. When they were tired of shopping, they looked for a place to eat nearby and happened to come to Zuixianglou. However, the restaurant was complicated and the girls dared not go in. They planned to find a clean restaurant, but they saw Chu Xinyu getting off the carriage and then entering the restaurant.
Although they saw Yang Qianjun, the two girls took their maids into the restaurant, which was so unfair. So they asked the maids to stay here, and went to find a restaurant to eat before coming over to catch the current ones.
After dinner, I came over and heard from the maid that they had not come out of it yet. How could it take more than an hour to have a meal?
As a result, they saw the second son of Duke of Wei and the fourth son of Fu coming out of the inside. Their eyes widened and their minds began to wonder, would Chu Xinyu have made an appointment with King of Jin and others?
Chu Jiating remembers that during the birthday party of Mrs. Huguo, the King of Jin seemed to be a little special to Chu Xinyu. Could they have something in private?
Not long after, they really saw Chu Xinyu and Yang Qianjun coming out.
Chu Xinyu's face darkened, "What are you talking about? Didn't you see that I'm with Miss Yang?"
Chu Jiating's cousin Yuan Qianrou said, "Although Miss Yang is with you, who knows if it's your smoke bomb?" She heard that after Chu Xinyu came back, her aunt's control over the family was taken back by Old Lady Chu to the second house. Now Old Lady Chu attaches great importance to Chu Xinyu, all because she will marry the Marquis of Peking in the future.
She also likes Pingbei Hou, but her family background is not worthy of her, and she is very jealous of Chu Xinyu.
Chu Jiating's other cousin smiled and said, "Yes, you have been in for so long, it's impossible that it's just that eating, right? I heard that there is a beautiful room inside."
Chu Xinyu knew very well that they had a purpose in saying this, and they didn't want to pay attention to them anymore, so they turned around and wanted to leave.
When Chu Jiating saw her intention, she immediately gave Yuan Qianrou a wink. The other party immediately understood and said, "I think we can't show this. As long as you take us to the village to play tomorrow, we can think that nothing happened."
