Chapter 083: Cousin
Princess Jing'an looked at Chu Xinyu and saw that she was standing aside with Yang Qianjun, waiting for Duke E to come in. She stared at her face quietly. It was rumored that she fell in love with Lin Chenyao and ran to Duke E's mansion to scold Fu Yinghua. Now that she saw her former rival here, would she be as calm as she saw her?
It was difficult for Chu Xinyu to ignore it when someone stared at her like this. She knew that what Jing'an was thinking was nothing more than not wanting her to live a smooth life. She would be happy as long as she was frustrated, but she would be less than her willingness.
Chu Xinyu shook at her playfully. Princess Jing'an saw that she was so relaxed, and she was not interested. She stopped looking at her and looked outside, waiting for Fu Yinghua to come in.
In fact, Chu Xinyu's heart was not as relaxed as she showed on her face. She was just not used to expressing her emotions on her face, afraid that one day she would reveal her emotions when she faced that person.
Princess Jing'an was observing herself with a malicious heart. When the person came in, she was afraid that she would find something, so she deliberately made that relaxed attitude, which made her stop staring at people.
Hearing the footsteps coming in, Chu Xinyu's heart suddenly tightened and her eyes went down vertically until the soft voice seemed to have traveled through time and space and crashed into her eardrums, and her back felt cold. Even if this sound had passed by eight hundred years, she would never forget it.
Xu Zhilan!
No, her current identity is not Xu Zhilan, but Fu Yinghua!
Fu Yinghua was originally her name, her father was Fu Shaode and her mother was Qin Yiyuan.
She originally had a cute and innocent sister and a home full of warmth and happiness...
Chu Xinyu slowly raised his eyes and his eyes fell on the woman wearing a large-sleeved rose-patterned rose-patterned skirt with a tooth-colored embroidered pink white vine flower moonlight. Her hands hanging on both sides of her body couldn't help but clench her fists.
I once thought that I could be very calm when I saw her, because when I heard her name, she did not show her emotions, but when I really faced her, when I saw her face, a face that was almost 90% like her, her heart still couldn't help but stir.
This face used to be what she was proud of, but now it is the root of her nightmare that wakes up every night!
"Sister, I'm actually very glad that I have this face, which gave me the idea of replacing you. I have memories of my previous life. I believe that I will do better than you! Your identity, your relatives far away in the capital, your future husband and the man who loves you and silently protects you for the rest of your life will all be mine in the future. In order to make me have no worries, I will not stay with your parents and sister. I will all let those who have met you and have contact with you. You will not be alone there."
She never thought that this cousin, who was 90% similar to her face and had a life-long relationship with her, had a heart that was even more vicious than a snake or scorpion. In order to seize the glory and wealth she had in the future, she actually accumulated everything around her, planned step by step, and destroyed her family!
Thinking of her stupidity in the first half of her life, her heart was as if she had cut her knife!
At this time, Fu Yinghua and Fu Yingwu paid tribute to the Princess Chu together. The Princess Chu smiled very lovingly, looked at the sisters, and said with a smile: "Yinghua is getting more and more beautiful, so is Yingwu, which is taller than the last time I saw it."
Fu Yingfu smiled and said, "Princess, you are getting younger and younger, and your complexion is not worse than that of us girls. When you are with Zhaoyang, those who don't know will think you are sisters."
Fu Yingwu followed and smiled and said, "Yes, yes, we are old in the future, and we will have to ask you about health preservation with the princess."
The Princess Chu smiled and said, "Look at you, your mouth is sweeter than the other."
The wife of Duke E said, "Princess Zhaoyang is not bad either. The last time I went to our Duke's Mansion to have fun, my old lady was so happy. She kept holding her hand and couldn't bear to leave."
Chu Xinyu's eyes never left Fu Yinghua. When she saw her sincere smile on her face and chatting with the Princess Chu, there was a hint of sadness in her eyes. No wonder she was deceived by her. When she was kind to someone, the smile on her face was so sincere that no one would doubt her falsehood.
When she lived in the 21st century, she was an orphan abandoned by her family. She was not in good health and had congenital heart disease. Because of her IQ of 260, she was adopted by her adoptive parents with a net worth of 10 billion US dollars. After completing the heart-changing surgery, she received various rigorous training and became the heir to the world's net worth of 10 billion US dollars.
But she was not doing well. Her adoptive parents only regarded her as a money-making machine. Their daughter's substitute had never felt any pity for her, nor did she feel any warmth in them. Until their daughter was in danger of kidnapping, they pushed her out without hesitation and became a victim.
When she was reborn in the Xu Dynasty, she met a pair of loving parents, and their care and care for her made her cherish her. Therefore, she was willing to start from a baby and grow up slowly, feel the family affection she had never felt before, keep a low profile, live a peaceful life of filial sons and kindness in fathers, and follow the circumstances.
However, she didn't expect that her comfortable life would lower her vigilance and no longer be fussy about people's hearts, giving people opportunities. I think so, who would have doubts about a person who saved her many times, and her cousin who loved her like a sister had other intentions for her? If it weren't for Xu Zhilan's moment before her death, she wouldn't have doubts until she died. It turned out that the so-called life-saving was actually her careful arrangement.
She is so good at acting that she deceives everyone!
Chu Xinyu quietly watched Xu Zhilan chatting with Princess Chu here with her identity. When she didn't see her with her own eyes, she didn't feel anything in her heart. But now, she used her identity to enjoy the respect and praise of everyone, as well as the unconcealed pity and love for her in the eyes of Duke E of the Duke of the State. She really wanted to pounce on her and tear off her beautiful disguise, so that everyone could see her viciousness and viciousness.
She knew that it was not the time to expose it, and she had to collect evidence of her murder and pretending, so she had to hold back now. Her hands tightly clenched loosely, lowered her eyes and covered the strong hatred in her eyes. When she raised her eyes again, she had returned to her original calm.
After saying a few words of praise to each other, Mrs. E took the brocade box from the maid's hand and handed it to Princess Zhaoyang, saying it was her birthday gift.
Princess Zhaoyang thanked her and took the brocade box and opened it. It was a very exquisitely crafted golden buyao. It just fits her clothes now. She liked it very much, so she immediately asked the maid to put it on her, which immediately added a lot of nobility.
Seeing that his mother gave her a gift, Fu Yingwu hurriedly gave the gift she had prepared. Princess Zhaoyang happily took it and thanked her.
"Where is Yinghua, what gift do you give to Zhaoyang?" Princess Jing'an was anxious to see Princess Zhaoyang throw away Chu Xinyu's expression. She could tell when she was in Wutongyuan that Zhaoyang liked Chu Xinyu's gift very much, but she believed that Zhaoyang would like Yinghua's gift even more.
"My gift is heavy, let them carry it in slowly. Now it should be here." Fu Yinghua smiled and looked out the door. Everyone followed her eyes and saw two servants carrying a box in, looking cautious.
An Qilan attached to Yang Qianjun's ear and asked softly in a voice that only each other could hear, "What is that? It seems to be bigger and heavier than Xinyu's box."
Yang Qianjun snorted softly and curled her lips and said, "It's mysterious."
Chu Xinyu's eyes turned with Fu Yinghua. Seeing her walking lightly to the box, Princess Zhaoyang also walked over. Fu Yinghua told her that the gift was given to her and she should be opened to feel the surprise.
Chu Xinyu chuckled. Xu Zhilan liked to use this trick to win people's hearts. She was fooled by her in the past.
She was seven years old at that time, and Xu Zhilan was one year older than her. On her birthday, Xu Zhilan gave her a little white rabbit. She pretended to be mysterious and asked her to give gifts by herself, and then accidentally let her see the scars on the back of her hand.
When she asked her how the injury came, she kept it a secret and refused to say it. In the end, she asked someone to go to investigate and found out that she accidentally injured her when she went to the back mountain to catch a rabbit. At that time, she was very moved and gradually regarded her as her own sister. But in the end, she killed herself and harmed her relatives was the cousin who regarded her as her own sister!
A cold light flashed in Chu Xinyu's eyes when he looked at Xu Zhilan, but it was fleeting in an instant, and no one present could notice it.
"Wow, it looks so good! What kind of variety is this? It's so curious!" When Princess Zhaoyang opened the box, she saw a chrysanthemum with three different flowers growing. The three flowers have different shapes, but they are very beautiful.
Everyone leaned over to see it, was amazed and asked Fu Yinghua what kind of flower this is, and how could three flowers of different shapes grow?
Princess Zhaoyang liked it so much that she asked: "What kind of chrysanthemum is this? Where did the variety come from and how were it planted?"
Fu Yinghua said: "This is a three-color chrysanthemum. A friend gave me the seedlings. It was said that it was a rare flower that was rare in a century. It took me a year to cultivate it carefully before three colors of flowers grew."
"It's really good. I haven't seen such chrysanthemums." An Qilan leaned over and looked back and sighed, "The world is so beautiful, and there are such strange flowers in the world. I really have gained insight."
Upon hearing this, Yang Qianjun pulled Chu Xinyu and squeezed forward to see what flowers are worthy of amazing so many people.
When Chu Xinyu saw the pot of three-colored chrysanthemums, a strange color flashed in his eyes. How could it be such a flower? Could it be...
"Why, believe me, how can your fake flower compare with Yinghua's real flower? Do you feel ashamed of yourself?" Princess Jing'an moved to Chu Xinyu and said in a voice that everyone could hear.
I feel ashamed of myself?
Chu Xinyu smiled coldly in his heart. Just as he was about to reply, Fu Yingwu squeezed over and asked first and said, "Sister Yu also gave flowers to Princess Zhaoyang?"
Since meeting yesterday, I have a good impression of Chu Xinyu. When my grandmother likes her, I directly called Miss Chu Wu Sister Yu to show my affection.
Princess Jing'an said: "She gave her fake flowers, and she can't compare with your second sister's."
Seeing that Princess Jing'an always asked to squeeze Chu Xinyu, Yang Qianjun couldn't see it and said, "It's what you said. Xinyu said she wanted to compete with her. Besides, what's wrong with Xinyu's gift? She also prepared it with great care. That affection is not worse than yours. The so-called gift is light and affection. Have you never heard of it? Giving gifts is about the intention. If this intention is too deliberate, comparing with this and that one will become a plea with ulterior motives?"
Yang Qianjun blocked the words, leaving Princess Jing'an speechless. If she compares the gifts, then Fu Yinghua's gift would be a plea with ulterior motives.
Princess Zhaoyang came over and patted Yang Qianjun's hand and said, "Okay, don't argue. Actually, I like both gifts. I told someone to send the gift to Baihua Garden and let them evaluate it."
Today is her birthday. These people are her good friends. They don’t want to hurt their kindness because of a gift. So they took Chu Xinyu’s hand and walked up to Fu Yinghuan and said, “Thank you for your gift. When you go out later, you will help me. You must win back my brother’s pot of yellow imperial clothes.”
"How to win?"
Chu Xinyu glanced at Fu Yinghua and saw that she was also looking at him, so Zhan Yan nodded slightly.
Fu Yinghua was slightly stunned. She didn't expect that when she saw Chu Xinyu again, she was so generous and not as arrogant as she remembered.
Chu Xinyu in her previous life always looked proud and lofty, quiet and dignified, gentle and subtle, never had anything to do with her, but now she is still full of spirit, but the temperament she exudes is very different from that in her previous life.
I heard from Mama Li that her grandmother sprained her ankle was because she took the emergency measure, and she carried her grandmother back and then helped her massage her shoulders. In her previous life, Chu Xinyu was not so kind at all. Could it be that a person's personality would change when the environment changed?
Princess Zhaoyang said: "I thought about it all the time, there is only one way to ask him to take the initiative to bet with me. Anyway, you will be responsible for helping me win at that time."
"This is no problem." Fu Yinghua immediately responded, looked at Chu Xinyu and asked, "Miss Chu Wu, where are you?"
Chu Xinyu smiled and said, "I am not as knowledgeable as Miss Fu Er, but I will do my best to do what the princess told me."
Fu Yinghua also smiled and said, "Miss Fifth, don't be humble. We don't understand what you know. Just like your nine-section whip, no one here dances the nine-section whip as beautiful as you. His heroic appearance is beyond our reach."
Nine-section whip?
Chu Xinyu was slightly stunned. She almost forgot that Yu'er used to be good at dancing whips. She had a nine-section whip made of fine steel, but she was just plain. She had a three-legged cat skill. When she met a master, she was whipped away in two moves.
What does Xu Zhilan mean when she mentioned it at this time? She also praised her for her good dancing and no girl can compare to her?
Although the nine-section whip dances beautifully, it is one of the extremely fierce and bloody weapons among soft weapons. Xu Zhilan thought that she performed whip in front of everyone, so that everyone could know that Chu Xinyu was not a dignified and virtuous girl, but a rough and brave man, and was definitely not a good match. In this way, which other famous family would be willing to marry a cruel girl home?
Sure enough, she was insidious. Seeing her smiling and saying praise, who would have thought it was a sugar-coated shell? If she hadn't known her character, she would have thought she was a sincere and approachable person.
At this moment, a maid came to report: "Princess, princess, the front yard sent someone to report, everyone was here."
The Princess Chu nodded and said to everyone: "Mrs. Ladies and girls, the banquet should begin. Please move to Baihua Garden." As she said that, she ordered the maid to bring the greetings she prepared and then distribute them to the girls in the house one by one.
Chu Xinyu received a valuable jade bracelet, similar to Yang Qianjun and Sun Ruoya's one. They were both jade bracelets, and Yang Lianxin's one was a silver hairpin with a crystal diamond inlaid.
Princess Jing'an County Lord Funing and other girls have a set of jewelry, each with fine jewelry. It seems that Princess Chu is very generous to the friends invited by Princess Zhaoyang, but this shows that she loves Princess Zhaoyang very much.
After the gift was delivered, the group moved to Baihua Garden.
Fu Yingwu walked to Chu Xinyu and said, "Sister Yu, I told my grandmother that I would like to invite you to the mansion to play in two days, okay?"
"Okay." Chu Xinyu nodded gently and walked side by side with her.
If Xiaoxi is still there, she should be as lively and simple as her. Looking at this cousin, she remembered her brother's letter to complain to her, saying that Xiaowu is a crybag and she will fall off golden beans at any time. She asked her that Xiaoxi would not be the same, but she said that Xiaoxi is not. If you make her unhappy, she will kick you directly.
Thinking of Xiaoxi, Chu Xinyu couldn't help but clench her fists. She was thrown into the water by a man with a scar on her wrist. She was only eight years old and had just learned to swim, but that night, there was a storm and the sea was rushing. She was so petite...
She closed her eyes to prevent her emotions from leaking out, so she raised her lips slightly, turned her head and asked Fu Yingwu in a low voice: "Did your grandmother sleep well?"
Fu Yingwu nodded, "She said she sniffed the sachet you gave me and slept soundly. If you come to the mansion in two days, can you bring more sachets for my grandmother? I'm afraid that she will not sleep well again after using it."
What a filial child. Chu Xinyu smiled docilely, reached out to rub her hair, and said, "Of course there is no problem with this."
When Fu Yingwu walked away, Yang Qianjun came over and said, "Didn't you say you and Miss Fu Er are rivals? Why do you seem to be very familiar with them? Now her sister invites you to the mansion again?"
Chu Xinyu glanced down her lower lip. It was really hard to explain this kind of thing clearly. It was a thing from the past. Now it was explained that no one would believe it. It was just Yang Qianjun asked, but she didn't hide it. She said, "What kind of love rival? That's the rumor. I never scolded her at all."
Yang Qianjun frowned and said, "Then why didn't she come out to explain and let those people spread it. The rumors about you have resurrected in the past two days, making you even more ugly."
Chu Xinyu sneered. She didn't know Xu Zhilan's methods yet, so she must have deliberately not clarified them, making everyone think that she had a relationship with Lin Chenyao. Although this would affect the reputation of her daughter's family, isn't it an honor to have something to do with Lin Chenyao as a person? Some people have no chance to talk about it.
She then said: "Rumors are rumors. Just as the false is fake, the true is true, and the false can never replace the truth. Finally, the truth will be exposed one day."
After saying that, she looked at the so-called "treasure" carried by two servants, which was a chrysanthemum, blooming with three flowers of different shapes. She was worried about not knowing how to find her flaws, but she didn't expect that a chrysanthemum would reveal her.
