Chapter 005: Stunning

Lan Yi is different from Zhubo. She went to Zhongyi's Hou Mansion for the first time. Zhubo had known from him that although Zhongyi's Hou Mansion was not the largest mansion in Jinjing, the scenery inside was one of the best.

When she really stepped in, she found that what Zhubo described was more elegant than she thought. She didn't know what other aristocratic families were, but in her understanding, the Marquis' Mansion was the most beautiful she had ever seen. Pavilions, towers, halls, pavilions, mountains and water, vines, and corridors, all show the beauty of the mansion.

Zhu Bo said that the old lady Chu was originally the fifth entry in the main courtyard. Later, because she wanted to be quiet, she moved to an independent courtyard south of the main courtyard of Zhongyi Hou Mansion. This courtyard was called Anshantang.

The three masters and servants followed Zhao's mother through a garden. Zhubo told Lan Yi that every grass, forest, pavilion and pavilion in this garden was designed and created by the former wife by a famous gardener. There are many rare and famous flowers planted inside, which are almost as famous as the four major gardens in the capital.

It is April, spring is in full bloom, the grass is lush, and the flowers in the garden are colorful and colorful, making a scene full of vitality.

There is an artificial lake in the garden. After passing through a unique stone arch bridge on the lake, walking a cobblestone road and passing through a curved green corridor, it is Anshan Hall where the old lady lives.

I met many people along the way, received many surprised gazes, and even heard the maid crying: "Oh my God, is this really the fifth girl?"

Facing this situation, Chu Xinyu didn't feel anything, but Zhu Bo was very helpful. She praised her master as a maid and was very proud. She walked with her waist straight.

Anshan Hall has a quiet environment. In front of the courtyard, there is a beautiful and tall green bamboo. When the breeze blows, you can smell a faint bamboo fragrance from a distance.

Quiet and elegant.

This is a really good place.

Lan Yi looked at the gorgeous and grand courtyard and said, "It's been more than a quarter of an hour this way. Will the girls have to go such a long way every day to pay their respects?"

Zhu Bo glanced at her and leaned into her ear and said softly, "You finally understand why I was so anxious when I knew that the girl was going to live in the courtyard and pavilion. It was because I thought of this. If the old lady wanted to mess with the girl and asked her to pay her respects every day, wouldn't she have to get up early to prepare?"

A stick of incense is available in the Xianyu Pavilion. It is close to the main house, but the small courtyard pavilion is different. It is the most remote corner of the mansion and the smallest courtyard in the mansion.

After hearing Zhu Bo say this, Lan Yi's face slightly darkened. She looked at Chu Xinyu, but saw her following Zhao's mother's steps into the hanging flower gate, looking calm and calm as if she had returned to him. Perhaps they were thinking too much, Old Mrs. Chu was her grandmother, so how could her grandmother make things difficult for her grandson?

After entering the drooping flower gate, the inner courtyard was the one, walking through the hall, and walking through the corridor, I saw a few maids wearing red and green walking around.

When he saw Chu Xinyu and his group coming in, he immediately stopped and looked at it. At this time, he heard a girl's crisp voice in the main room. I don't know what she said, and bursts of laughter came from the room.

The little maid guarding the door reacted and reported loudly in front of the door: "Old lady, the fifth girl is here!"

The little maid was smart and asked Chu Xinyu for help. Then she lifted up the curtain and let Chu Xinyu go in.

Chu Xinyu stepped into the threshold, Lan Yi and Zhubo followed in, and Zhao's mother stood sideways, and an old lady came to talk to her.

Let’s talk about the huge halls and furnishings in the house, and there are many people sitting in the hall, including old and young, sitting and standing. On the main seat, there is an old lady Chu dressed in gorgeous clothes and silver hair, looking kind-hearted.

Old Mrs. Chu stood a few steps away from her, standing with a figure in a peachy back at the door, probably the sound she heard outside the house was hers, and she was Chu Jiaqi, the fourth girl who was waiting outside the door to greet her earlier.

The moment Chu Xinyu's figure entered everyone's eyes, the laughter in the room stopped abruptly, and Chu Xinyu took two steps forward, stood with breath, and said to the old lady Chu: "The unfilial granddaughter Xinyu is here to pay tribute to her grandmother. She has not been able to serve her for a long time. Please forgive her."

After speaking, Chu Xinyu took the ceremony of worshiping the old lady Chu, knelt at the same knees, raised her hands to the forehead, and then stretched downwards to the ground.

Chu Xinyu actually gave a polite tribute to the old lady Chu. She used to be unable to even speak on the scene, let alone give a polite tribute to the elders, and her movements were so smooth and in compliance with the norms.

Everyone present was surprised, especially the old lady Chu, who had always paid attention to etiquette and righteousness. After being surprised, a flash of praise flashed across her eyes. Her granddaughter, who had never seen her for two years, actually performed this kind of worship ceremony.

Even the third and sixth sisters whom she loves the most may not have the actions she makes pleasing to the eye. Such a foundation is not something that can be obtained overnight. I believe that she has worked hard in Puling Temple in the past two years.

Old lady Chu was born into the branch of the Chen family in Yingchuan, and was a scholarly family. She was invited by her aunt from the palace since she was a child. She was familiar with the scriptures and understood various etiquettes. Although she was not old-fashioned, she valued etiquette the most.

I think that the reason why a woman can praise her is not only her appearance, her skills, but also her character, virtue and upbringing. The best way to reflect her virtue and upbringing is various etiquette.

So she asked her girls not to understand other things, but they had to understand various etiquettes and read the "Three Etiquettes" books. Unfortunately, Chu Xinyu was naughty and not only did not like to read, but also refused to correct her. In the end, because she did something wrong, she still didn't know how to admit her mistakes and was disappointed, so she sent her to Puling Temple, hoping that she could understand reflection and reform herself.

When I saw her today, I did not disappoint her. Old Mrs. Chu raised her mouth and said with a smile: "Get up."

Chu Xinyu stood up as he spoke, held his head down and stood there.

Seeing her like this, Old Mrs. Chu praised her even more and raised her hand and said, "Go ahead and see for my grandmother. I haven't seen her for two years. Have you become beautiful?"

Chu Xinyu bent his knees and replied, "Yes."

Then take the first step closer.

Chu Xinyu just came in and bowed her head. Before everyone could see her clearly, they looked carefully and took a breath, and their eyes could not be moved away as if they were being attracted by a magnet.

The woman in front of her had skin like cream, her eyebrows were turned, her lips were like cherry blossoms, her spirit was like autumn water, and her indescribable tenderness and delicateness.

Anyone who knows Chu Xinyu's biological mother Mei Ruochu knows that Mei Ruochu was the number one beauty in Jinjing back then. Even Fu Yinghua, who is known as the number one beauty in Jinjing, is not as good as her. But Chu Xinyu in front of her inherited the essence of Mei Ruochu, and is even more beautiful than her!

Old Mrs. Chu also saw Chu Xinyu clearly, and like everyone else, she was also amazed.
