Chapter 040: Playing

Without a dream all night, when Chu Xinyu woke up in bed, he suddenly felt full of energy.

Since Zhu Bo went out early in the morning, the one who served her to comb her hair was purple bell, and the clothes were matched with bamboo and silk, the autumn-scented printed satin-faced laces, white cross-collared mid-clothes, and light-colored moonlight skirt.

Zi Ling not only had excellent needlework, but she didn't expect that she was also very skillful. She combed her a fallen bun, brought a pair of white magnolia hairpins and pink crystal pendants, which were simple and elegant.

After putting on her clothes and rinsing her mouth with bamboo salt, Danqing had already brought her breakfast. She ate three steamed buns, drank a bowl of shredded pork porridge, and then took Zi Ling out.

Although Old Mrs. Chu spared her from conserving her every day in the morning and evening, in order to show her filial piety, she had to go and pay tribute, but she would never get up before dawn.

These days after coming back, she hadn't paid any respect to Yuan in the morning, so as not to let her use this to arrange it. Today she decided to go to Qingliyuan first.

In the early morning, the air was still cool, and the crystal dewdrops on the grass had not yet evaporated.

Along the road, there were several little maids cleaning the fallen leaves on the ground. Although it didn't rain last night, the wind suddenly started to roll in the middle of the night, and the broken branches and leaves were scraped onto the road.

When Chu Xinyu arrived in Qingliyuan, Yuan had just finished breakfast, and the maid was carrying a plate of tableware. When he saw Chu Xinyu, he stepped aside and half-squatted to salute.

Mama Qin was serving Mrs. Yuan in the house for tea. When she heard the movement outside, Mrs. Yuan looked up and saw Chu Xinyu coming in with her maid Ziling, and a smile appeared on her face.

"Yu'er is here, have you had breakfast?"

"have eaten."

Yuan said to Qin's mother: "Mama Qin quickly get a cup of hot tea. Although it is April now, it is still a little chilly in the morning."

Chu Xinyu was a little dazed. How could such a passionate smile and caring words make people suspect that she was not sincere? She was not too stupid in the past, but that the enemy was too capable of pretending.

However, when it comes to pretending, who can't pretend, it depends on who can pretend to last!

Chu Xinyu smiled and greeted her respectfully. Yuan took her to sit down, "I heard that you went out with the cousin of the Duke of Wei's mansion yesterday. I think you have a good relationship with her. Have you known each other before?"

Is she testing me? Chu Xinyu sneered in her heart, but said, "She and I met on the birthday of Mrs. Huguo that day, and my mother also knew about her daughter's situation. That day she was the only one who was willing to talk to me."

Yuan took her hand, patted the back of her hand and said, "Who said, aren't your fourth sister and your sixth sister? Although your fourth sister has a bad temper and is very willful, it's all my fault that I didn't educate her well. But sisters are always sisters. She has learned a lesson for the incident that day. I think she knows she is wrong, so don't take it to heart."

"I won't blame her."

Chu Xinyu lowered her eyes and looked at the hand she held, enduring the urge to pull it back. Fortunately, at this time, Qin's mother brought the tea. She took the tea cup and pulled her hand back without any trace.

Yuan didn't care about her actions and smiled and said, "As for that girl Yang, I heard that she is a wild girl who doesn't understand ethics and likes to show off her face. My mother is afraid that you will teach you more about her contact with her. It's better to contact her less in the future."

How could Chu Xinyu not understand what she meant, but she didn't pretend to be stupid and asked, gently put down the teacup, and replied obediently and vaguely: "Thank you for your concern, my daughter knows what to do."

Yuan did not delve into the meaning, but changed the topic and sighed: "Unknown to you, you have passed the age of birth. From your birth to now, it seems like a blink of an eye. The more you grow, the more you look like your mother. If it weren't for two years ago, I'm afraid that the person who came to propose marriage would have already broken the threshold."

After having been playing for so long, it has only officially entered the theme. Chu Xinyu sneered in her heart, but pretended to be indifferent: "If there is no one to propose marriage, no one will mention it. At worst, the daughter will never marry for the rest of her life, and she will be with her mother at home."

"Nonsense!" Yuan rebuked: "Who cursed herself like this? You don't care, but I was anxious, otherwise I wouldn't have someone to pick you up, just because I can't bear to be imprisoned in temples for the rest of my life and live alone to live a lonely life."

Chu Xinyu was very moved, "Mother..."

"Don't worry, your mother will not let you down. The mother you should fight for will be back." Yuan said to Chu Xinyu as if heartfelt, "In the future, no matter where you marry, your mother's family will always be your home, just like your elder sister. Although she married far away, her family will help her a lot. As long as your mother's family is good, you will have support in the future and live a more decent life in your in-laws' family."

Chu Xinyu nodded, Yuan's meaning was to tell her that having a strong family is more important than anything else. In the future, the Marquis' Mansion will be more glorious than she will be valued in her in-laws' family. In the future, the support of her family will be inevitable.

Yuan continued, "Your grandmother has mentioned to you. The wife of Duke Ying has fallen in love with you and wants to tell you to be her son as a daughter-in-law."

Chu Xinyu answered according to her words: "Grandma has mentioned it to me, she just asked me to think about it."

"No need to think about it. My mother was too excited at that time. Later, I found out that although Mr. Jiang's third son had outstanding family background, he had bad habits and was not suitable for you. So my mother pushed this marriage and told you another marriage, that is, Mr. Qi Er from Anxing Bo Mansion. His family background is not worse than Mr. Jiang's third son. What's important is that he has a good character, no bad habits, and even good reputations. He has been quick-thinking since childhood and is called a child prodigy."

Of course, a fool has no bad habits. A genius and an idiot are just a strait, and Chu Xinyu sneered in his heart.

Yuan looked at Chu Xinyu and saw her bowing her head and silently, then said earnestly: "Actually, my mother doesn't want you to get married so soon, and I want to keep you for some time. To be honest, it's not that my mother dislikes you, but because of you. With your current reputation, it's hard to find another marriage."

If Lan Yi had not told her the overview of Mr. Qi in advance, Yuan's words would have been very touching. He would have thought it was good to her stepdaughter. Because of Mr. Jiang's bad things, she flatly pushed the marriage and found another good for herself.

To be honest, she really admires Yuan. She is truly unprecedented and has never been there. Since Yuan said that if she is willing to welcome her, she will only bully Yuan even more unscrupulously. Even if this marriage fails, it may be worse next time. Therefore, she will never retreat if she should fight for it!
