Chapter 29
Chapter 29
The second young master laughed at himself: "Since I was a child, I like reading these light books to avoid the world. I don't like Confucius and Mencius' active way of entering the world. Unexpectedly, the crown prince is also like this. He is the legitimate son of the empress of the Yuan Dynasty. He was raised as a crown prince as soon as he was born. Several senior cabinet ministers stared at him well. Everyone remembers the crown prince. I really don't understand why he is such a proud son of heaven It will be the same thing I like. "
"Perhaps the prince grew up in the East Palace and was under too much pressure to like these seclusion books?" Chu Jinmiao thought more and more and felt more right. "Yes, I'm afraid the prince is also a good and sensitive person in his heart. He doesn't like these mundane things and can't change his identity. That's why he borrowed books to express his feelings."
"I don't know that." the second young master said, "I haven't seen the prince and I don't know who he is. But I heard that he dared to shoot his maidservant in front of all the ministers. He was always disrespectful to the queen. Such a person shouldn't be like this?"
Chu Jinmiao still insisted on her own view. She said, "most external rumors are not allowed. But when the prince comes, we will know."
"Father hopes the prince will come." the second young master smiled bitterly, "For this reason, he also specially reminded me that the books Wen □□ likes will be favored by the crown prince at that time. I have no intention of fame and wealth, but my father is the third generation in the Changxing Marquis house. Judging from the current situation of our family, I'm afraid the emperor will not allow my father to ask for a discount, and our family has no way in the court, so it's difficult to find someone to dredge up the relationship. My grandmother and father have been trying to find a way, and they don't like it It's also for the good of our family. "
Chu Jinmiao was a little surprised. She had been in the Marquis house since she was a child, and she had heard a lot about things in the court. She asked curiously, "if the emperor doesn't agree to make your brother your son and continue the title of the Marquis house of Changxing, the Chu family will no longer be the Marquis house after that?"
"Yes," said the second young master, "if the younger generation doesn't keep up with the spirit, within two generations, the Chu family, the Marquis of Changxing, will completely fall and become civilians."
Chu Jinmiao sighs and is surprised. If so, she and Chu Jinyao are not much different. If the second young master can't assume the title, they are both the daughters of civilians.
But then Chu Jinmiao overturned this idea. The skinny camel is bigger than the horse. No matter how bad the Chu family is, it is also noble, which is many times better than the Su family, a poor peasant family.
"You don't have to worry about this. Our family has passed on three generations in Taiyuan. Although the grandfather's generation has fallen a little, it is always better than ordinary officials." the second young master looked at Chu Jinmiao gently and said, "I'm busy with attacking the Lord. You don't have to worry about this. Just be a miss Houmen."
Chu Jinmiao tried to smile and said, "I'm miss Hou men. Chu Jinyao is."
"What are you talking about?" the second young master frowned and didn't like listening to these. "Although there was a mistake in your identity with the fifth sister, you are the sister I grew up with. She is a close sister connected by blood. You two are as close to me."
"I knew my second brother was good to me." Chu Jinmiao raised his head and smiled with the second young master's arm. "Second brother, if you are so good to me, I will be good to you in the future. Don't you worry about the prince and chengjue? Tell me more. Maybe I can help you!"
The second young master didn't take it to heart. He smiled carelessly: "you're a girl's house. What can you do for me?"
Chu Jinmiao smiles but doesn't speak. The world values men over women and is particularly harsh on women. However, women can do things that many men can't do. How many foreign ministers the crown prince wants to see every day. Chu Jing and the second young master will talk about it in the crown prince's eyes, but she is the type of woman the crown prince just likes. Maybe the future of Changxing Marquis house will fall on her 。
The second young master saw Chu Jinmiao hanging his eyes. He didn't know what he was thinking. He didn't even hear his call. The second young master could only say one more sentence: "four younger sisters."
"Ah? Second brother, what's the matter?"
"It's getting late. I have to see my father," said the second young master. "Do you want to read that new language now?"
Chu Jinmiao was embarrassed. The new sayings of the world she showed mammy Deng that day were not her book, but the second young master's, including the marks she often read in the book and the old ink. The second young master was a gentle and thoughtful brother. No matter what Chu Jinmiao asked, the second young master would agree. She was taught by the second young master when she was a child. Therefore, Chu Jinmiao's words are very similar to those of the second young master. At first glance, it is easy to get confused. Chu Jinmiao relied on this to disguise the second young master's Kung Fu as her own, deceived mother Deng, and left her the impression of diligence and studiousness.
As a matter of fact, Chu Jinmiao doesn't have so much time to read books, nor is she a collection of folk essays such as new sayings and anthologies. She spends most of her time fighting with Zhao's aunt, competing with seven girls, laughing and fighting with her servant girls. She can be famous in the Chu family, thanks to the fact that women's lack of talent is the virtue of the world and the foil of her fellow sisters. On the contrary, she is the second young master Small body is weak, so I have made a lot of efforts to these poetry collections.
Chu Jinmiao thinks that her second brother loves her most anyway. She borrows her second brother's books for use, and the second brother won't care. Besides, even if she replaces the second young master's name in the house, it won't affect the second young master. Why not do a win-win thing?
It is for this reason that Chu Jinmiao doesn't want to return the book to the second young master. What did she look at after the second young master took it away? She also has to get familiar with these books and get close to the prince. Chu Jinmiao asked, "second brother, are you in a hurry to use it these days?"
The second young master paused and asked, "what do you mean?"
"I think this book is very interesting. I also want to copy one. Second brother, why don't I send it to you after I copy it?"
It turned out to be so. The second young master smiled: "you are the daughter of the boudoir. You don't need to copy the book. Give me the book, and I'll have someone copy it for you, and then send it in."
Chu Jinmiao hesitated, so the handwriting was different! But she really didn't want to do it herself. How much effort would it take for such a thick book. She thought for a while and finally said, "OK, but keep the notes in the book. I want to write it myself."
"OK, it's all up to you." the second young master touched Chu Jinmiao's head and smiled gently.
The second young master talked with Chu Jinmiao for a while, and then went out. Chu Jinmiao lives in Zhao's West Cross courtyard. The second young master just came out of the cross courtyard and happened to meet Chu Jinxian.
"Second brother?" Chu Jinxian called the second young master and asked, "Why are you here?"
"Let me see four younger sisters."
Chu Jinxian smiled noncommittally. For the sake of the peace of the house, the old lady of Chu just banned Chu Jinmiao without saying the reason. However, Chu Jinxian knew exactly what Chu Jinmiao had done. Sadly, Zhao and the second young master are still in the dark. Now they come to see Chu Jinmiao. Chu Jinxian feels ridiculous. She is going to remind the second young master, but she sees something with sharp eyes.
Chu Jinxian asked, "second brother, what is this?"
The second young master looked back and found that Chu Jinxian's eyes fell on the new words of the world. He took the book from the boy and handed it to Chu Jinxian: "this is a book I read in my spare time. The fourth sister was curious and borrowed it from me a few days ago. Now I came to see her and took it by the way."
Chu Jinxian looked serious and said, "give me the book."
The second young master didn't know why Chu Jinxian suddenly became interested in these books. But he always respected his eldest sister and handed the book to Chu Jinxian.
Chu Jinxian took it over and turned it over. She turned her head and asked the servant girl behind her in a low voice, "I remember when mother Deng was still there a few days ago, what she taught was Shi Shuo Xin Yu?"
Chu Jinxian's servant girl thought for a moment and bowed her head and said, "go back to the big girl, that's right."
Chu Jinxian opened the book again and had a look. What else did she not understand. She sneered and said, "it's your book. No wonder."
"What's the matter?" the second young master felt wrong and asked carefully.
Chu Jinxian closed the book and said, "second brother, do you know that the mammy of huailing palace came to our house a few days ago?"
"Of course I know."
"What the two mammies taught is the new language of the world." Chu Jinxian gently shook the book in her hand, looked at the second young master and said, "Chu Jinmiao happened to borrow a book from you during this time. When mammy left, she would return the book. What does that mean?"
Is Chu Jinmiao borrowing books to deal with the Queen's mother? The second young master was stunned and said, "no, the fourth younger sister is not such a person."
"I have no evidence now. Naturally, you don't believe it. On the contrary, you still think I'm slandering her." Chu Jinxian said, "I won't argue with you. Open your eyes and see if she is such a person. You'll soon understand."
"Elder sister, you seem... To have some complaints about the fourth younger sister." the second young master said carefully, "since the fifth younger sister came back, my father, grandmother, and now you have gradually biased towards the fifth younger sister. I'm not saying that the fifth younger sister is wrong. The fifth younger sister has suffered outside. It's right that we hurt her more, but it's not fair for you to alienate the fourth younger sister like this. They are both daughters of our family."
When Chu Jinxian heard this, she smiled: "Chu Jinmiao loves her little nature and is used to provoking men's love. Even you are no exception. Second brother, let me ask you, the fifth sister came back in less than two months, but Chu Jinmiao has lived in Hou's house for 13 years. The family unknowingly favors the fifth sister. What's the reason?"
The second young master wanted to talk, but he didn't know what to say several times. Finally, he sighed and reluctantly admitted: "the five younger sister's character is really more pleasant than the four younger sister. The four younger sister is capricious and has a heavy mind. If she is slightly wrong, she likes to think more. When her temper comes up, she likes to take Joe, which is really bad, but she also has no sense of security..."
"OK, I don't want to hear it." Chu Jinxian reached out to interrupt the second young master and said, "I'm too lazy to listen to your excuses for her. But she secretly borrowed your book and just ran into the time of the Queen's mother, which shows her bad intention. Maybe she'll take your name and excuse that it's her book."
The second young master was annoyed: "eldest sister, fourth sister, she is not such a person."
Seeing that the second young master refused to believe it, Chu Jinxian naturally could not insist. After all, she is a daughter to be married outside, so she can't quarrel with her mother's brothers. Chu Jinxian said gently, "just see if it's right in the future. When I say this today, I also want to remind you that when she asks you for something again, you should be careful. Jinyao is our own sister. You have no problem loving Chu Jinmiao, but if you neglect and wronged Jinyao for her, I can't tolerate it."
"I understand." the second young master also slowed down and said, "I know you are for the good of our family. Whether Jinyao or Jinmiao are my sisters, I will treat them equally."
Chu Jinxian wants to tell him what Chu Jinmiao has done secretly, but these old ladies don't want to spread it, and the second young master may not believe it, but they have become villains. Chu Jinxian smiled perfunctorily and crossed the topic.
After the second young master left, Chu Jinxian's girl secretly asked, "girl, the second young master and the fourth young master have been close since childhood. Why do you want to say this to the second young master? You have to rely on the second young master to support you in the future. I'm afraid the second young master will have a grudge against you."
"I don't know." Chu Jinxian said, "but Chu Jinmiao is very thoughtful. If I don't remind my second brother, he will always treat this person as his own sister and hurt her. For a long time, Chu Jinmiao's fingers may use them to do something. I said earlier that even if it will make people unhappy, it's better to mess up the house in the future."
"The girl is reasonable. The four girls borrowed books..."
"She must be fooling people." Chu Jinxian sneered, "Before, I only thought she was petty and didn't make it to the table. Now I can see that she is very wrong. The second younger brother is a man. He always sympathizes with such a weak woman and refuses to think bad about others. Since he doesn't believe it, I'll tell it to my grandmother and father quietly. The second younger brother can't see it, but my grandmother has been running in the back house for so many years and has seen many people like her , I can't hide it from my second brother, but I can't hide it from my grandmother. My second brother is still a little naive. It seems that I have to remind my father and let my father look after him. "
As she spoke, Chu Jinxian sighed, "the second brother and Chu Jinmiao have a close relationship. They grew up together in front of their mother, but they are closer than my eldest sister. I can't say anything about Chu Jinmiao. However, step by step, I'll wake up the second brother this time. At least, the next time Chu Jinmiao wants to play tricks, the second brother won't trust her unconditionally."
"Girl, what does the fourth miss want to do with so much effort?"
"It's hard to say."
"Is it for the accompanying reading of huailing Prefecture?"
Chu Jinxian shook her head: "I see, more than that."
"Ah?"
"I don't know, but I always think she spent so much effort for more than that." Chu Jinxian said, "but it's all my guess. I'll see what's specific in the future." after that, Chu Jinxian stopped for a while and sighed in a low, inaudible voice: "She is always like this. She refuses to work hard and always uses crooked ideas. If she goes astray like this, she will hurt herself sooner or later."
After hearing this, the servant girl was surprised and gave a low reminder: "girl!" it's wrong to spread this. As a sister, she made such comments on her sister, which is extremely bad for Chu Jinxian's reputation.
Chu Jinxian took back her mind and didn't mention the topic. She murmured, "Jinyao was beaten in the palm a few days ago. I don't know what happened to her. She is also stubborn and refuses to be soft. Otherwise, why would she suffer from this kind of flesh?"
"Five girls have backbone and are stronger than many men. That's a good thing!" said the servant girl.
Chu Jinxian didn't speak. After a while, she said, "forget it. Go to find grandma first. You'll go to Chaoyun hospital and see what she still needs. Come back and tell me."
The servant girl replied in a crisp voice, "ah, yes!"
In the Chaoyun courtyard, Chu Jinyao was holding his pen rigidly and writing on the paper.
Qin Yi looked coldly for a while, and the more he looked, the more angry he became: "I reminded you at that time. First bow your head and talk about the later things slowly. It's good for you. Your idea is great. Now you know how to suffer?"
Chu Jinyao sighed: "it's been a few days. Why are you still so angry? I'm relieved."
Qin Yi's face was still covered with cold ice. He was also thinking, what is he angry about?
