Chapter 252: Farewell

The Chu family's family dinner was undoubtedly very successful on this day. Because of the happy event again, the second and third wife were full of spring breeze. Everyone in the banquet was taken care of and treated the opposite room equally. The sisters acted decently and elegantly and had a very harmonious relationship.

Only Yuan did not smile again since her father-in-law read the imperial edict. She sat in her seat, and she did not move the food on the table. She stared at everyone and could freeze people to death.

She had thought that she would make people move at home and that the second wife, He, was blamed by old lady Chu for not being able to hold the family dinner. However, since Chu Xinyu invited her friends to the mansion to play last time, she had someone secretly failed to deal with it in the kitchen, He had made people look at the kitchen very rigorously, making her people unable to start.

Now seeing He's smile on his face, she felt it was very dazzling. She was the wife of Zhongyi, and the entire Marquis's mansion belonged to her. Why should she give up her home to others to take care of?

They were all that little girl, she dug a big hole for her without saying a word. If she hadn't cared about family rules and Chu Xiao, she would really want to come forward and tear the faces of these people apart, but it doesn't matter, she would soon take back the power of the family.

Yuan was secretly planning to regain power. Chu Xiao and Chu Hong brothers and Chu Zhiye were in high spirits. Qiu Lubai was on the table and slowly slapped and talked loudly.

Old Mrs. Chu likes to be lively because she is all her family and does not talk about polite etiquette, so she naturally gets along more casually. She talks too much during the meal. Not only does she allow the girls to drink a few glasses of plum wine, but she also makes an exception to give her grandchildren a big red envelope. Therefore, the women all enjoy their meals and drink a lot of wine.

The meal was until the hour of Hai, and everyone slowly dispersed.

Chu Xinyu returned to Biyun Pavilion, and Ziling immediately went to the kitchen to cook a bowl of sobering soup for her. The atmosphere of the dinner tonight was pretty good, and the fruit wine was sweet and pure, so she drank two more glasses.

After drinking the sobering soup, Lan Yi lifted the curtain and came in. She had been handing over the past two days with Fu Guanzhang, leaving early and returning late.

Seeing her come in, Chu Xinyu asked Zi Ling to pack up the soup bowl and go out, and then asked Lan Yi: "Is the matter done?"

When I saw An Qilan yesterday, I mentioned Sister Yao’s case to her. Unexpectedly, she went to find Zheng Shangshu when she went back. This morning, Zheng Shangshu stamped the case file. Because the case cannot be publicly investigated by the God-Suiting Sect, someone secretly handed it over to Fu Guanzhang.

Lan Yi replied: "It's almost done. After my guidance, Commander Fu began to suspect that the murderer had something to do with the Shadow Organization."

She told Fu Guanzhang about Sister Yao’s true identity and her relationship with Hu Tianba as her lover, and guided him to say that she was not sure if it was because Hu Tianba’s enemy knew Sister Yao’s identity, and was afraid that she would find someone to kill her to silence her. Otherwise, she, a woman, and her family, who made a living by growing vegetables, would be destroyed by the people in the martial arts world?

Fu Guanzhang was shocked when he heard that Sister Yao's former name was Wanfang and her lover was Hu Tianba. Lan Yi knew that his parents were killed by pirates. He had been chasing the murderer. The girl would ask him to investigate Sister Yao's affairs. It is estimated that the murderer was related to the person who killed his parents.

"Girl, why don't you tell him directly that the murderer who killed Sister Yao is related to the Shadow Organization?" Lan Yi didn't know her relationship with the Fu family, and didn't understand why she didn't tell Fu Guanzhang directly, but she wanted to use this method to make him doubt it.

"Because of the clues I found before, the murderer who killed Sister Yao and the murderer who killed Commander Fu's parents may be the same person. This person is very good at disguising and is right next to him, but there is no evidence, so I have to guide him little by little and let him check it himself. When he found the evidence, it is more effective than anything we say."

Lan Yi seemed to understand a little. If this person was by Commander Fu, he might have been someone he trusted very much. Otherwise, after investigating for so long, he would not know that Hu Tianba was dead.

It would be very dangerous to let such a person stay by my side, so the girl asked Commander Fu to take over the case and expose the person's disguise with her own hands. But what she didn't understand was why the girl cared about Commander Fu so much? Could it be to repay his life-saving grace?

Lan Yi was confused, but she did not continue to ask.

Seeing that she had been running out the past two days, Chu Xinyu must have been tired, so she asked her to go down and rest.

As soon as Lan Yi went down, Zhu Bo ran in panic and said, "Girl, Xiaotian and Xiaoge haven't eaten since noon. They are lying on the ground motionless. Are they sick?"

Xiaotian and Xiaoge are the swans that Lin Chenyao caught as betrothal gifts. They happened to be one female and one male, with snow-white bodies. When Chu Xinyu saw them, he immediately fell in love with them, took them over and kept them in the shed in the backyard.

"What do you feed them?"

"Feed rice bran."

Chu Xinyu couldn't help but hold his forehead. They thought they had regarded the swans as geese, so they said: "Ordinary poultry is to feed rice bran, but they are not ordinary poultry. They eat aquatic plants, proportional duckweed, reed leaves, water onions, etc."

"Then I'll go to the lake to catch duckweed now."

After talking about bamboo and silk, he was about to run out, but he forgot that it was late at night. He was thinking about the two "big geese" that had not eaten yet. What if they were hungry? It was given by the Marquis of Peking, which meant that his marriage with the girl was harmonious and beautiful, and he would never leave her!

"Wait!" Chu Xinyu called her and said, "What are you anxious about? It's very late now. You can put some water on them and go fishing them tomorrow morning."

Zhu Bo turned around and stuck out his tongue at her, then took it out.

When Chu Xinyu came out of the bathroom, she was wearing thin pajamas and scattered behind her back. She sat in front of the dressing table, holding a jade comb and was about to comb her hair when she heard a click sound from the other side of the study. She thought it was a widow, so she didn't care.

After combing it a few times, she heard something happening there. She called out twice, but there was no response. She got up, put on a long gown, walked towards the study, lifted up the bead curtain, and saw that there was no one in the study. She felt strange, but she became alert.

She walked slowly to the window, put her hand on the window, and looked out. When she saw a black shadow flashing in the big tree where she was usually invisible, she frowned slightly, and a sound suddenly came from behind her, revealing a sense of doting and helplessness. "I have a sense of vigilance, but why don't I look behind her?"

After hearing this, Chu Xinyu turned around and saw a man holding a book in his hand, sitting sideways on the desk, with a bit lazy and casual posture.

Chu Xinyu looked surprised. Why didn’t he see him in the room before?

And seeing his leisurely look, it doesn't look like he is leaving Kyoto City tomorrow, she said, "Why are you here? Doesn't it mean you leave Kyoto City tomorrow?"

Lin Chenyao looked at her, and his straight look made Chu Xinyu's face slowly turn red. His snow-white skin was as beautiful as if it was dyed with rouge. He said, "It will be out in the fourth day."

"The fourth day? Isn't it just the time when the rooster crows, why is it so early?"

Chu Xinyu was surprised. She thought it would come out at dawn. At that time, it would start to light up and could see the road. At the fourth day of the day, she couldn't even see the road clearly.

"Then why did my elder brother come out at dawn? Aren't you all together?"

"It was together, but the person at that time was not me, but my substitute."

Zi Ling and Danqing entered the bedroom to make the bed for Chu Xinyu. When they heard two familiar voices from the study, they quickly made the bed and then left. They were guarding the stairs and prevented others from coming up.

The day before yesterday, Mrs. Chu arranged a mother to come in for Biyun Pavilion, temporarily taking over the position of Zhao's mother to manage the affairs of Biyun Pavilion. Mother Rong is an old man next to the old lady. Although she has managed Biyun Pavilion well these two days, she is in charge of the business. Who knows if she appears in the girl's room in the middle of the night, will she report to the old lady?

"You have a substitute?"

Chu Xinyu stood at the window, and the night wind blew in from the window, which was very refreshing.

"Searching for treasure is a secret operation. It cannot make people know where I am going, so I found a secret guard with a similar figure as mine to pretend to be me."

Lin Chenyao put down the book and walked to her. Chu Xinyu put up his long gown and took a step back. Lin Chenyao looked down at her, with a smile on his beautiful eyes: "I'll leave in a while. Are you going to stand so far to talk to me?"

Chu Xinyu looked up and said, "Where is the distance? Just two steps away."

He suddenly came over just now. His height gave her a sense of oppression. In addition, she just remembered the kiss she had the night before, and her ears were red, which made her take a step back unconsciously.

"Don't go to the window." Lin Chenyao said, holding her hand and pulling her back hard. "When I came in just now, I saw someone sneaking outside the attic, so I asked Fu to check it out."

"Then are you still in?"

Chu Xinyu pushed him lightly, but did not push him away. Instead, he hugged him and took him in. She washed her bathing and smelled it very nicely. He couldn't help but lift a twig and put it on his nose and smelled it lightly. He said, "Come and tell you some of it and leave."

Chu Xinyu, “…”

Lin Chenyao whispered: "After I leave Kyoto City, you should try to minimize going out. If you have any questions, let Lan Yi or Wu go and do it, or look for Gui Ye."

Chu Xinyu frowned, "Why?"

It is okay for women not to go out, but she cannot. Some things she has to go out and do in person.

"You have been in the limelight these two days and have been named the county lord. I am afraid that some people will not be able to sit still. It will be bad for you when I am not in Kyoto City."

As he said that, he took out a jade bracelet from somewhere and put it into her jade wrist. "This jade bracelet can keep you safe. No matter how long you are, don't take it off."

Originally, he wanted to give it to her on the wedding night, but he didn't expect that she would be named the county lord. Once her identity changed, I was afraid that some people would not be able to sit still and would attack her while he and the King of Qin were not in Kyoto City.

"This jade bracelet..."

Chu Xinyu was about to say something, but outside the room, there was a sound of footsteps. Zi Ling and Danqing quickly stood up, "Why did Mama Rong get up so late?"

Zi Ling and Danqing were at a loss. Danqing turned around and walked quickly to the bedroom. Through the bead curtain, she saw a scene. She blushed and turned around quickly.

From her perspective, she saw the Beiping Hou hugging the girl and kissing her!
