Stop acting, Your Majesty, the queen knows you're faking it

Chapter 493
"Brother-in-law, I won't!" Chi Chengyu quickly waved his hands to show his attitude.

"It's okay, the empress and I went out after dinner. You're not hungry right now, so you can take whatever you want, don't be cautious." Yan Chujing curled the corners of his mouth, showing a modest smile.

"Thank you brother-in-law!" Chi Chengyu also bent his eyes and smiled.

Chi Xinian: "..."

Looking sideways at the two who looked like brothers and sisters beside him, Chi Xinian couldn't help being speechless for a while.

These two people... really can't tell.

The little one has never been so honest, and the big one has never been so humble since she unmasked her.

Both of them clearly have a little temper, but sitting together now, they can actually present this scene.Really... shocking.

But since the two of them were willing to act, Chi Xinian didn't bother to expose them.

Taking a sip of tea casually, she asked the second aunt's distant relative: "I don't know...what should I call my second aunt's relative? It's the first time I've seen her, but I still don't know how to call him?"

"This is my grandfather's granddaughter, who is of the same generation as me. You can just call her Aunt Chu, Anian." Speaking of her distant relative, Yin Ping's chatterbox gradually opened up. The restraint is slowly gone.

While introducing her cousin to Chi Xinian, she talked about the relationship between her cousin and herself: "My parents were originally from Qi County, my father was in the army, and my mother was the daughter of a prominent local family. Life in Qi County is good.

"But later, because my father made military achievements and was promoted to an official position, our family moved to Kyoto...

"However, my mother is a family-minded person, and during the years she was alive, she took our family back to our hometown in Qi County to celebrate the New Year every year.

"As for me, I have also become very good friends with my sisters and brothers in this new year. You and Aunt Chu were inseparable at that time, good sisters who would cry for a long time every time we parted.

"That is, when my mother died of illness and my father went out with the army due to the war, he was not at home all year round. The connection with relatives in my hometown gradually faded."

"It turns out that Aunt Chu is actually Second Aunt's childhood playmate, so I was disrespectful just now." Hearing this, Chi Xinian toasted Chu Qi with a cup of tea to show his respect for his elders.

Seeing this, Chu Qi also quickly picked up the teacup, and responded to Chi Xinian: "Your Majesty, you are very polite."

She is different from Yin Ping.

Chi Xinian is Yin Ping's niece who grew up under her watch. She is very close, and the two get along naturally and harmoniously.But as an outsider who has just arrived, she still has a lot of respect in her heart when facing the empress.

She didn't dare to be negligent, and even her movements and voice were stiff because of this.

Chi Xinian knew her mood, so he softened his tone and took the initiative to talk to her: "Then Aunt Chu went to Beijing this time because she missed her second aunt and came here specially to find her?"

"This... Missing is true, but the reason I'm looking for it is not just that..." Speaking of the reason for coming, Chu Qi not only did not relax, but became a little embarrassed.

Knowing that her thin-skinned cousin was in trouble, Yin Ping took the initiative to say for her: "Your Aunt Chu came to the capital because she really wanted to find a place to settle down temporarily.

"Because Qi County is located in Xingping, it was seriously affected by the flood accident...

"The fields and houses in your Aunt Chu's house were all flooded, not to mention the harvest, even the people were almost washed away by the raging flood..."
