Chapter 132 Pearl Flower
When Chu Junlan returned to the gate of Shihua Pavilion, Ye Yijian and Chu Huating had been waiting by the carriage for a long time.
Seeing her coming, Ye Yijian breathed a sigh of relief, hurriedly greeted her, and asked carefully: "Miss Third, are you okay?"
"I'm fine. I suddenly had an urgent matter just now. I didn't have time to explain in detail. You are so tired that you are worried." Chu Junlan said, pulling Chu Huating's sleeve and shook it.
Chu Huating let go of his heart. He didn't say much in front of outsiders, and said, "It's good that it's okay. It's not too early, so we should go back."
Chu Huting turned to Ye Yijian and bowed, "Thank you, Mr. Ye."
Ye Yijian hurriedly returned the courtesy and said, "Brother Chu, are you polite."
The fuss today was not pleasant, and in the end, Chu Junlan was angry. Ye Yijian had already regretted that he shouldn't have been there, and he apologized to Chu Junlan and bowed again.
Chu Junlan knew what Ye Yijian was thinking, but he didn't say much about why she chased her out, so he just smiled and returned the gift.
Zi Yan and Baole had prepared their own mule carts. Chu Junlan and Chu Huating got on the car one after another, said goodbye to Ye Yijian again, and then drove the car to the direction of the Chu family.
Ye Yijian looked at the direction where the mule cart disappeared, stood for a long time, then looked down in disappointment and turned back to Kunshan: "Let's go back too."
"Yes, young master." Kunshan knew that Ye Yijian was unhappy, so he naturally did not dare to say much, so he served Ye Yijian and set off for the eldest princess's mansion.
The mule cart the brother and sister were riding in was slightly shaking, and Chu Junlan's pearl earrings hit her fair neck.
Chu Huating carefully considered the words and persuaded him: "Lan Lan, it is his business for his father to take a concubine. It was not related to us as children, and today's affairs were just a coincidence."
Chu Junlan came back from his thoughts and said frankly: "Brother, I think today's affairs are strange."
Chu Huating was stunned: "What's weird?"
"Brother, think about it, who are the guests in the Shihua Pavilion today? Only those we come into contact with are royal relatives. Even those in the hall on the first floor are not ordinary people. We can come because we borrowed Mr. Ye's light, why can my father come?"
Chu Junlan curled up the corner of his lips and smiled: "It's not that I look down on our father. He has been doing a lot of things over the years, but he can really give people a high look after he has confirmed the marriage between our Chu family and Gongding Prince's Mansion."
Chu Junlan told Chu Huating what she saw and heard when she followed Chu Cailiang to the royal palace to give gifts that day.
When Chu Huating heard Chu Cailiang's colleague's arrogant attitude at first and respectful attitude, he felt annoyed in his heart. His father was embarrassed to go to the palace, but he was embarrassed by his family Lanlan in public. It was really annoying.
"So, do you suspect someone who is interested brought his father in?"
"Not only that, when throwing the hydrangea, I clearly saw that a few people deliberately took action and transferred the hydrangea to their father. When his father talked to Miss Lu, those people quietly retreated in different directions. I just chased out, but my footsteps were slower, and the other party's carriage was too fast, so I didn't catch up."
Chu Huating's expression was already very serious when he heard this, "Lan Lan, should I tell my father about this?"
"There is no need to say immediately that my father couldn't calm down. If he talked too much, if he was not cautious enough, he would startle the enemy."
"This is reasonable." Chu Huating lowered his head and thought, "No matter what the other party's purpose is, what you want to do, the first thing is to ensure your safety. If you chase it like this today, what if there are too many people on the other party and there is an ambush? Have you forgotten the last time someone deliberately led you out?"
Chu Junlan stuck out her tongue. She was negligent and was too confident in herself. She ignored that her current body was not the one who had received strict training since she was a child in her previous life, and her body was poisoned and her vitality was severely damaged.
"Brother, I understand, this will not happen in the future."
Ye Yijian shook his head worriedly: "You, sometimes I know that you won't listen to what I say."
When Chu Junlan returned to the living yard, there was no movement in the front yard, and he didn't know whether Chu Cailiang had returned or that the Chu family wanted to take a concubine did not arouse any objection?
She took a shower and changed her clothes, and slept until late at night. In her sleep, she faintly heard something scratching the wood outside the window. She woke up with a tremor and hurried to open the window.
Xiao Guaiguai rushed into the house quickly and jumped into Chu Junlan's arms.
"You're back." Chu Junlan scratched the little guy's furry head.
Xiao Guai rubbed her hand and spitted a platinum pearl-inlaid flower on her palm.
The beads were about inch wide, and the three orchids made of platinum were arranged in triangular arrangements. The center of each orchid was decorated with a pearl, and three small platinum hollow beads were strung on the bottom. As the shaking, the three platinum beads shaking, which was very exquisite.
At first glance, I knew that this bead flower was one of the entire set of heads.
Chu Junlan touched Xiao Guaiguai's head: "Thank you, you are so smart, you have helped me a lot now."
Xiao Guaiguai's throat made a "gurgling" sound, looking extremely happy.
Chu Junlan took the chopped chicken and fed it to Xiao Guaiguai. She sat aside and twisted the beads and flowers to look at them in the moonlight.
A woman who can afford such a small and exquisite and has a platinum-made face must be either rich or noble. Xiao Guaiguai followed the man who finally gave the hydrangea to Chu Cailiang. Is this pearl flower belonging to that woman's family? Or is the person who instructed that man to be a woman?
Chu Junlan couldn't think of the reason for this for a moment. Xiao Guaiguai couldn't speak, and there was too little evidence to prove this matter, so she simply didn't bother with it anymore.
Things are getting more and more interesting.
Early the next morning, Chu Junlan followed the rules to pay tribute to the old lady, and Aunt Wang and Chu Mengying also came with sickness.
Since Chu Mengying made such a big scandal, she has become much more honest than before. When she saw Chu Junlan, she didn't have any slaughter. She just looked at Chu Junlan and showed a bit of jealousy.
Chu Junlan didn't care. When he gave the salute and planned to go back, he saw Chu Cailiang strode in with a flushed face.
When they saw her, Aunt Wang, Aunt Sun, Aunt Su and the daughters of the eldest wife all got up to salute, and Zhou and the children of the second wife also got up to greet him.
Chu Cailiang waved his hand and saluted the old lady: "Mother, my son has a happy event, so I want to ask my mother to help me handle it."
"Oh? What kind of joy is it?" The old lady was curious.
Aunt Wang, Aunt Sun and Aunt Su were all shocked and had some bad premonitions.
Chu Cailiang smiled and said, "Miss Lu Xiangxiang, the courtesan of the Shihua Pavilion, threw a ball to choose her husband yesterday, chose her son, and was willing to commit herself to be a concubine. I will carry her into the door this evening."
"What!"
Before the old lady could react, Aunt Wang screamed.
Aunt Sun and Aunt Su's faces were also pale.
