Qin's mother left, Chu Xinyu asked Zhu Bo to clean up her clothes and some items she wanted, and also told her to bring more silver.

Lan Yi saw Zi Ling lifting the curtain to send Mama Qin out, and she couldn't care about so much, so she leaned into Chu Xinyu's ear and said, "Girl, the eldest lady will definitely not be kind to you when she asks you out at this time. If she really treats you..."

Yes, many things are hard to guard against. It’s not that the enemy is smarter than you, but that the enemy is always one step faster than you. After rejecting An Xingbo’s marriage in front of Yuan, Chu Xinyu knew that Yuan would definitely have a trick. It would be said that looking at Qin’s mother’s attitude before and afterwards.

If she refuses to go to Longhua Temple to burn incense again, it will be like a open confrontation with Yuan. Now is not the time to tear off the face with Yuan. Yuan this time just wants to test his attitude towards her.

"Girl, or else..."

"Soldiers come to block the water, and water comes to block the soil." Chu Xinyu stood up. Since someone didn't want her to live a good life so much, she was in a hurry to put a trap on her, so she naturally had to step on it. But who won this game, but it's impossible to say!

What's more, her current situation is that she is not afraid of the enemy's response, but she is afraid that the enemy will not take action. The more Yuan wants to deal with herself, the more she can collect evidence against her.

Zi Ling returned to the room, her eyes that didn't show much emotion on weekdays also showed some concerns. She sent her mother Qin out and clearly saw the smile on the corner of her mother Qin's mouth.

It seemed that some conspiracy succeeded. She was very worried about the girl. After all, she refused the eldest lady in the morning, but the eldest lady asked the girl to go to Longhua Temple to burn incense at this time.

When Chu Xinyu saw Zi Ling come back, he arranged for Zhu Bo and Zi Ling to stay. Because of their skillful hands, they stayed mainly for stringing beads.

While there was still some time, Chu Xinyu tried to skew two flowers and leaves, and then marked them on the drawings. In fact, they were all obvious skills. Zhubo and Zi Ling were very smart and could understand at a glance.

"You just need to string the beads and leaves, and do the others when I come back."

After everything was arranged, after lunch, Chu Xinyu called Zhubo aside, whispered a few words in her ear before taking Lan Yi and Danqing out.

"Girl." Zi Ling had something hidden in her heart, and she couldn't resist the accusation of conscience. She chased her out and called Chu Xinyu, but when she faced her, she didn't know how to say it. In the end, thousands of words only turned into one sentence, "Xiangmei is Madam Zhu's cousin."

Chu Xinyu was stunned, then nodded to show that he knew.

Madam Zhu is the manager of the old lady Chu, and her status is second only to Madam Sun. Yuan is really good at making favors. The most capable maid around him actually has a relationship with one of the old lady’s most capable assistants.

If it weren't for Zi Ling's reminder, Chu Xinyu wouldn't know that they had this relationship. So, everything about the old lady might be under the control of Yuan's family?

There was a gorgeous carriage parked outside the gate, which was more luxurious and dazzling than the carriage I visited last time at the Duke of Wei’s Mansion. The body was made of black nanmu and looked quite sturdy. It was wrapped in expensive and exquisite silk on all sides. The cover was tassels, and silver bells were adorned with corners, swaying in the wind, making a crisp and pleasant jingle sound.

In addition, four tall and mighty guards were riding on horseback, and a team walked on the street, leaving her domineering style, which was exactly her previous style.

Seeing such a pomp, Lan Yi couldn't help frowning and whispered in Chu Xinyu's ear: "Girl, what does this mean by Madam?"

Chu Xinyu chuckled. Yuan had arranged such a striking carriage and team. Should she praise Yuan's care or praise her for being scheming?

At this time, a maid with a double-ringed bun and wearing a light green collar skirt came to Chu Xinyu, and said with a blessed body: "Miss Five, I am Xiangmei, and I am here to accompany you to Longhua Temple to burn incense on the order of the eldest lady."

Chu Xinyu calmly glanced at her. She looked handsome, but her chin raised slightly, giving people a bit arrogant. She nodded slightly and said, "It's getting late, let's go."

After speaking, Lan Yi and Danqing helped get on the carriage, and then they got on the carriage. Lan Yi put down the curtain.

Xiangmei frowned, how could this be the case? They didn't say that the fifth girl had become very well-educated. Logically, she was the most capable maid around the eldest lady. The other girls in the house were polite when they saw her, and the girl shouldn't have smiled at her, "Thank you for your hard work." Then she invited her to ride on the carriage together?

After all, she was the maid valued by the eldest lady. Although she was quite slandered Chu Xinyu's behavior of ignoring her, she did not show it.

When you arrive at Longhua Temple, you will pass by the market and leave the city.

The market was the downtown Chu Xinyu passed by on the first day in the city. Just like that day, the crowds were crowded and very lively.

I don’t know why, in this crowded place, the coachman actually drove the carriage very quickly. Chu Xinyu lifted the curtains and saw the people on the street so scared that he hid on both sides. Although he didn’t hit someone, the rushing in like this caused anger from passers-by, and he pointed and scolded the carriage, and some people even threw things into the carriage.

Chu Xinyu couldn't help frowning, and gave Lan Yi a wink at Lan Yi. Lan Yi, who was prompted, shouted outside to drive slower. I wonder if the coachman didn't hear it, but the carriage still did not slow down. Lan Yi shouted again, and it was still like this. She lifted the curtain in anger, slapped the groom's shoulder hard, and shouted: "Hey! Have you heard it?"

The coachman turned around and replied, "Are you a girl in a hurry? The road to Longhua Mountain is not easy to walk. It takes an hour to get from here to the foot of the mountain, and it takes an hour to go up the mountain."

"Miss Five, the coachman is right." Xiangmei then explained: "Tomorrow is the fifteenth day, and there are many people going to the temple to burn incense. In order to save time, many people go up the mountain one night like us. We must go up the mountain at the You hour, for fear that we will not get the yard if we are too late."

Chu Xinyu stared at her, her lips curled up slightly, and she smiled casually: "So you are the masters."

When Xiangmei heard this, she felt a sudden blow. The fifth girl was clearly smiling, but her dark eyes were bottomless and did not show any turbulence. For some reason, she felt a little inexplicable fear in her heart.

"Carrier, slow down the carriage." Xiangmei immediately regretted after shouting this sentence. If the carriage slowed down, wouldn't it be like the fifth girl's words?

Sure enough, after the coachman heard her, the carriage really slowed down.

Xiangmei raised the corner of her eyes and looked at the fifth girl secretly. Seeing that she was leaning against the wall of the carriage, she closed her eyes and rested as if nothing had happened just now. Even Lan Yi returned to her seat and did not pursue her words, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief, maybe she was thinking too much.

The carriage became quiet in an instant, and only the horses' hooves outside the car window were heard, the wheels pressing against the ground and the hustle and bustling voices were heard.

About a quarter of an hour later, the carriage got faster again.

After about half an hour, I finally arrived at the foot of Longhua Mountain.

The carriage stopped, Chu Xinyu lifted the curtains and looked outside. There were many carriages and sedan chairs parked on the vacant lawn, and several gorgeously dressed women and girls stood in groups of three or three, all accompanied by the old man and the maid.

"How to stop?" Lan Yi asked Xiangmei.

Xiangmei shook her head and said she was not clear. "I'll go and take a look." As she said that, she jumped out of the carriage. Lan Yi was worried and gave Danqing a wink. Danqing immediately understood and jumped out of the car and followed her.

After a while, Danqing came back and she lifted the curtain and said, "Girl, they said that the Southeast Avenue is under construction and we have to walk the path. However, there is only one carriage at the entrance of the path, so we have to line up to the mountain, and there are five carriages in front of us."

"The great way is being repaired?" Chu Xinyu leaned against the soft pillow and smiled thoughtfully.
