Chapter 071: Filial Piety

When he returned to the Hou's Mansion, Chu Xinyu asked Lan Yi to go to the house for her to do something, and took Danqing directly to Anshantang to pay tribute to the old lady Chu.

At this time, Mrs. Chu had just gotten off a nap and Madam Sun was washing her. The maid outside the house said that the fifth girl was back, and Madam Chu immediately asked Madam Sun to help her out.

Seeing Chu Xinyu, the old lady Chu happily pulled her down and said, "Why did you go to Longhua Temple to fulfill your wishes yesterday? I won't tell me. But you girl is very interested. You know that I have insomnia recently, so I asked Zhubo to bring a pillow. The smell was very comfortable and I had no dreams all night. Even the old problem of headaches was relieved."

When Chu Xinyu came to pay his respects that day, Madam Sun only mentioned that she had insomnia. Who would have thought that this girl would remember it and asked Zhubo to send her the prepared incense pillow. When asked, she found out that Yuan had asked her to go to Longhua Temple to fulfill her wish.

Chu Xinyu said: "The fragrance pillow is agarwood, which has the effect of clearing the mind, eliminating restlessness, calming the mind, improving intelligence, eliminating diseases and prolonging life. If you think it is suitable, make more of it for you to use it another day."

"Okay, okay, it's still our Yu girl who is the most filial." Old Mrs. Chu held her slender and fair hand and smiled affectionately, then asked about her situation when she went to Longhua Temple to fulfill her wish.

Chu Xinyu said, "Mother has prepared everything for me. I will do things as Qin's mother told me, and everything goes well."

Danqing was dissatisfied when she heard her say this, and said without thinking: "Girl, how can it go smoothly? Sister Xiangmei..."

"Danqing!" Chu Xinyu shouted and said, then said to the old lady Chu: "Grandma, don't think too much. Actually, nothing happened. Danqing may have misunderstood. I'll go back and talk to her."

"Old lady, girl..."

As if he was afraid that Danqing would say something, Chu Xinyu secretly pinched the back of her hand hard, and then quickly found an excuse to say goodbye to Old Mrs. Chu.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Chu Xinyu has something to hide. Xiangmei is Yuan's maid. Since Danqing mentioned her, it may be related to Yuan's family, but she just has some concerns and dare not talk to her.

Old Mrs. Chu pondered for a moment, then instructed Madam Sun, "You can ask Yuqin to ask Danqing later."

Madam Sun nodded and replied, "Okay."

Let’s talk about Chu Xinyu pulling Danqing out of Anshantang. When Danqing saw the girl’s face tense, she had never seen a girl like this before, she couldn’t help but ask nervously: “Girl, did you say something wrong just now?”

Hearing this, Chu Xinyu stopped and his smile suddenly appeared like a flower blooming. He reached out and patted Danqing on the shoulder, "No, your performance is very good."

"Really?" Danqing felt relieved. Before the girl came to Anshantang, she gave her a task. If the old lady asked about the temple, and the girl said it was going well, she would come out to refute and say what Xiangmei did last night, but she was interrupted by the girl. She doubted whether she had said it was wrong.

"Well, really." Chu Xinyu nodded. She brought Danqing to Anshantang with the purpose of telling the old lady Chu about Yuan's design, but she could not tell the matter like a complaint, so she deliberately interrupted Danqing's words. The purpose was to arouse the suspicion of Mrs. Chu and ask her to investigate it by herself.

"If I'm not wrong, someone will come to you later. At that time, you only need to say what I told you. You can't say anything else, do you know?" Chu Xinyu told her.

"I know."

"Let's go, I'm so tired. I must take a hot bath when I go back."

Just as she was about to leave, she happened to see Chu Jiayu walking over with a frown. In Chu Xinyu's impression, she was cheerful and optimistic, and rarely had such a situation happening, so she asked: "Sister Qi, what's wrong with you?"

"Fifth Sister." Chu Jiayu quickly stepped forward and blessed her body, and then said, "The doctor said that even if the second sister's face is good, it will leave scars. The second sister always hides in the house and refuses to come out. I am very worried about her and thinks about any way to make her look good and return to her original appearance, but the doctor has no choice. I hate myself for not knowing anything and am upset."

It turns out that it is because of these things.

There are only the second and seventh girls in the third room. The two are completely different. Although they are legitimate and illegitimate, they get along with each other in the third room. They have never seen any quarrels between them. Their sisters are deeply in love, so they will naturally worry. Chu Xinyu thought for a moment and said, "I have a bottle of flawless ointment here, so you can try it for the second sister."

"Really?" The sadness on Chu Jiayu's face disappeared. Although she didn't know how effective Wuxiao cream was, she could restore her original state after hearing the word Wuxiao.

Chu Xinyu nodded and walked forward. Chu Jiayu hurriedly walked away, tangling her like a dog-legged voice.

As soon as they arrived outside the gate of Yilan Xiaozhuyuan, they heard noisy sounds coming from inside, as if someone was arguing. Chu Xinyu walked in quickly, but saw Chu Jiaqi and two maids pushing and pulling with Zhu Bo Ziling and others arrogantly, while Chu Jiayun stood by and watched.

Chu Xinyu's face darkened and he shouted in a low voice: "What are you doing?"

When Chu Jiaqi and others looked back, they were all shocked by Chu Xinyu who suddenly appeared. Didn’t the sixth sister say that she went to the temple to fulfill her wish and wouldn’t she come back today?

"Why is she back?" she asked Chu Jiayun.

Chu Jiayun shook her head, but she was not understanding. The sixth sister said that Chu Xinyu would not go to the Hundred Flowers Banquet, so she went to Yilan Xiaozhu to see if she could get the invitation from the maid. Unexpectedly, when she arrived, the fourth sister had already started arguing with Zhubo with her maid. Fortunately, she just stood by and watched and did nothing.

When Zhubo saw her girl coming back, she immediately left these people and ran over, and cried with joy: "Girl, you are finally back." The girl had only left for a day and a night, so why did she feel like a year had passed? Fortunately, she came back, otherwise she wouldn't be able to withstand it. If she had known, she should have learned some fist and foot skills from Lan Yi at that time.

Chu Jiayu, who was standing beside Chu Xinyu, exclaimed, "Why are there fingerprints on Sister Zhubo's face?"

When Chu Xinyu heard this, he lowered his head and saw five clear fingerprints on Zhu Bo's tender and white face, his dark eyes shrank slightly, and a chill flashed in his eyes. She asked, "What's going on with your face?"

Zhu Bo raised his hand to stroke his cheek, and it hurt a lot. When she remembered the situation just now, tears swelled up. She said, "The fourth girl and the maid came to ask me to take your invitation. I said no, and they would break into the house. If we didn't let them in, we slapped me in the face."

After saying that, she thought, it would be great if Lan Yi was there, and they would definitely beat them up. When Lan Yi came back, she decided to learn some kung fu with her.

Chu Xinyu raised his eyebrows. It turned out that he was here to grab the invitation. He was quite arrogant. His cold eyes swept around everyone's faces, curled his lips and asked, "Who hit you?"

Zhu Bo pointed his hand at a maid wearing a pine-colored, narrow jacket with a pine-colored pair of collars and said, "It's her, she is the fourth girl's confidant maid Xiangcheng."
