Chapter 045: Smell

She has envied Chu Xinyu since she was a child. Every time she came to the palace and returned home, she brought a lot of rewards. Although she would share a share for herself, she was not happy at all. She felt that she should exchange it and that she was the one who gave it to her.

She has always looked down on Chu Xinyu. She is unable to compare with a person she looks down on in terms of identity and material things. She is extremely jealous, but she cannot refuse those exquisite and gorgeous rewards.

Every time Chu Xinyu comes back from the palace, he only talks about his aunt's so much, and rarely mentions her prince's cousin, so she believes that the fourth prince hates Chu Xinyu as much as she does.

Until one day, she met the fourth prince who sent Chu Xinyu back outside the mansion. He helped Chu Xinyu get off the carriage. Chu Xinyu's shoes accidentally fell off. He picked them up and carefully helped her put them on. Before she could finish them, she reached out and gently pinched Chu Xinyu's white and tender little face.

At that time, her eyes turned red when she looked at her. It turned out that everything was what she imagined. The fourth prince did not hate her, and even liked her very much, because when she saw Chu Xinyu pouting and turning her face away, he smiled very brightly.

At that moment, she was attracted by his smile. It turned out that the fourth prince was so handsome, so sad, and a displaced son. It happened that the Master taught her these two lines of the Book of Songs yesterday. When he saw him, his mind naturally emerged.

Since then, she has quietly kept the boy in her heart and secretly paid attention to everything about him. Since she is envious and jealous of Chu Xinyu, she swears that she must be better than Chu Xinyu and more beautiful than her. When she grows up, she will snatch everything about her!

Two years after Chu Xinyu was sent away, she spent a lot of effort to squeeze into the circle of noble women and met several girls from a wealthy family. Now she is less famous in the circle of noble women and is even known as a talented woman. She left Chu Xinyu far behind. As long as her father regained her position, she would take one step closer to the King of Qin.

But now my mother is going to give up. She has made so much effort, how can she give up?

Yuan sighed, "How come your mother doesn't understand what you think, but think about it, if your father cannot advance to the capital this time, let alone marrying the King of Qin, even if he marrys a noble family, he will be disliked. Only if your father has a high position and holds real power, your uncle will get the title back and have them to be your back, so others will look up to you. Otherwise, even if you are so outstanding and without a strong family as your backer, those noble families will not take you into consideration." Especially for the royal children, their marriages have always been a marriage of political or interest relations.

"Does Chu Xinyu have to marry to Qi's house?"

"I don't know either, they just asked the little girl for the name. Do you think I want her to marry so rich?" Because the little girl has a special identity, it is not advisable to deal with it casually. After thinking about it, this kind of marriage that is superficially glorious and corrupt inside is the most suitable.

"What if she doesn't want to?"

"Mom will think of a way to get her to agree."

"Will she still go to the day after tomorrow? We have discussed kinship with others. Would it be bad if we attend such a banquet?" This is the question that Chu Jiating is most concerned about. Many royal relatives and nobles were present at the day after tomorrow. The King of Qin must have been invited. If Chu Xinyu also went, the two of them would definitely meet the above.

"She won't go." If Qin's mother's plan was successful, she wouldn't go at all.

When Chu Jiating heard this, she felt relieved, "How can she explain if she doesn't go to her grandmother?"

"I have my own arrangements, so you don't need to worry about these things. But what gifts are you going to give to Princess Zhaoyang the day after tomorrow?" Yuan cleverly changed the topic, "This is your first time attending such a banquet. Don't let it be rude."

"I have already thought about it. I am going to make a round fan. The fan is embroidered with double-sided embroidery. Isn't this a hundred flowers feast? I'll embroider the folded branches, butterflies, and chrysanthemums." Speaking of this, Chu Jiating is full of confidence in her embroidery work, and her gift will definitely be loved by Princess Zhaoyang.

Seeing that she was so confident, Yuan felt relieved and talked to Chu Jiating for a while. When Qin's mother came, she did not avoid it and asked in front of Chu Jiating: "What's going on?"

Mama Qin smiled and nodded, "It's done, the wife of Duchy of Ying agrees, she will let someone prepare."

Chu Jiating asked curiously: "What are you talking about? What are you preparing for?"

"It's nothing, just prepare the gift well." After Yuan said that, he patted her on the shoulder and walked out with Qin's mother.

Chu Jiating turned her head and thought for a while, and immediately called her eldest maid Bingxue in, "Go and ask what my mother and mother Qin are going to do?"

Bingxue nodded and took the lead and went out. It took a long time to come back.

She attached herself to Chu Jiating's guard and whispered a few words. Chu Jiating's eyes lit up, "Really?"

"Yes, that's true."

Chu Jiating said, "Can you have a relationship with Zi Ling or Danqing on weekdays?"

Bingxue shook her head, "Danqing didn't, but when she met Zi Ling on the old lady, she once said a few words."

Chu Jiating got up and walked to the window, stood at the scenery outside the window for a while, then turned around and said, "I heard that Ziling's parents were working on grandmother's crops. Her brother was beaten to death because she owed huge gambling debts. Her sister-in-law raised her two young nephews by doing random work."

Bingxue said: "Yes, her parents were originally a group of people released by the old lady kindly. Unexpectedly, her brother was ignorant and owed huge debts, so Zi Ling had to sell herself back to the Marquis' Mansion. The old lady was thinking about her parents' faces and asked her to stay by her side and let Madam Sun discipline her."

Chu Jiating thought for a moment and said, "Go and tell Manager Tao that you can find a job for Ziling's sister-in-law. Ziling's sister-in-law is not someone else, so please rest assured."

"Okay, I will do it." Bingxue had long been familiar with these things. When the girl asked if she had a friendship with Zi Ling Danqing, she guessed what she was going to do.

"By the way, I will give Manager Tao two or three hundred pennies and find a better doctor for Sister Ziling."

"Yes." Bingxue took the order and walked out, but after taking two steps, he retreated. "By the way, girl, I saw Zhu Bo coming back from outside and took a bag of things in my hand."
