Looking at Xiao Chan, who had done what she had given me well, Chu Nianhe couldn’t help but smile angrily, “If you don’t want to act with me next time, I’ll take Xiaoling out, and I don’t dare to bother you anymore.”
Xiaochan certainly knew that Chu Nianhe was joking, so she hummed twice and said proudly: “Xiao Ling’s elm-head is the most unrestrained person! Look at Yue Si’s smart appearance just now, it would be strange if she didn’t see the clues by Xiaoling’s two brushes!”
“Yes, yes,” Chu Nianhe said repeatedly: “I’m going to ask you all today. If it weren’t for you, what should I do?”
Xiaochan was very proud after hearing Chu Nianhe’s words, but after a while, she came back to her senses and couldn’t help but shouted angrily and amusedly: “Miss is heartless. I think of you everywhere, and you are still secretly mocking me!”
The two laughed and jokingly for a while, and when they were about to arrive at Jinglan Pavilion, Xiaochan asked Chu Nianhe with some strangeness: “I don’t know what the second lady promised with Yuesi, but she made her so bold that she dared to sneak into our yard to assassinate the lady.”
Looking at Xiaochan’s puzzled expression, Chu Nianhe couldn’t help but sneer gently: “Justice said just now that Chu Yinqiu has passed the exam.”
“Second Young Master?” Xiaochan couldn’t help but cover his mouth and exclaimed, “He was a famous playboy in the past. Isn’t the lady joking? Can a person like him even get fame?”
That was natural, Chu Nianhe sneered and said, “What can you do and can’t bear to be fame in front of fame and fortune? Look at the mother and daughter of the Su family, isn’t it for Chu Yinqiu to return to the mansion with a proud look one day to support them?”
After hearing Chu Nianhe’s words, Xiaochan couldn’t help but nodded in agreement, and then she frowned again and said, “But… the second young master passed fame in the exam, and what does it have to do with Yue Si? Could it be that she was proud of the second young master and was loyal to Aunt Su and her daughter.”
“Of course not,” Chu Nianhe smiled, and said in a cold voice: “I guess Chu Leyan promised Yue Si to be a concubine for Chu Yinqiu.”
“Oh—” Xiaochan nodded suddenly and realized: “So the lady used this matter as an excuse to make Yue Si hook with better bait?”
“You are smart,” Chu Nianhe smiled and blinked at Xiao Chan, and said softly: “A person like Yue Si who is determined to climb up knows how to distinguish the pros and cons of one thing for him. Chu Yinqiu is a concubine’s young master. Even if he has passed the exam now, he will be a county magistrate in the future. What can he have a great future? What I promised Yue Si is several times better than this. Do you think Yue Si will abandon the darkness and turn to the light and show goodwill to me?”
Chu Nianhe is very focused,Xiaochan knew it, and now when she heard her say this, she felt even more impressed by her own lady. She was almost overwhelmed by her and worshiped Chu Nianhe.
Today, Chu Pingke was not in the mansion, so the family banquet was set up in Jinglan Pavilion. As soon as Chu Nianhe entered the dining room of Jinglan Pavilion, she saw Chu Leyan sitting beside Chen pouring wine for her, her expression was very obedient and cute.
Zhou’s eyes were sharp-eyed. Seeing Chu Nianhe standing at the door without making a sound, he quickly said to Chen, “Old lady, look at Nianhe, why are you standing at the door so pitifully and not coming in?”
The attention of the room immediately fell on Chu Nianhe. Zhou also stared at her with a smile, waiting for her to make a fool of herself in front of everyone.
