Chapter 109
Mu Ziyuan snorted coldly, seeing Chu Ruoying's obedient appearance, the depression in his heart dissipated a lot, he just wanted to see Chu Ruoying always obedient to him.

"Senior Jin, this is the dim sum made by Miss herself." The two of them were chatting when Gu Yu suddenly came forward with the dim sum in his hand, put the dim sum in his hand on the table, saluted the two and smiled.

Chu Ruoying nodded, and let Gu Yu back down. When she looked up, her eyes flickered at Gu Yu, and then her eyes fell on the plate of pastries. It was indeed the kidney bean roll she made this morning.

Mu Ziyuan picked up the pastry and tasted it, looked at Chu Ruoying with admiration and said, "Chu Chu's craftsmanship is really good."

"Do you like it?" Chu Ruoying smiled lightly, since she knew Mu Ziyuan for nearly half a year, she had never seen him so happy because of a snack.

"How did Chuchu know that I like kidney bean rolls?" Mu Ziyuan nodded, and continued to pick up a kidney bean roll to eat.

Chu Ruoying was taken aback when she heard the words, and then smiled faintly. The smile had an indescribable feeling, which made Mu Ziyuan feel very uncomfortable, so she put down the pastry in her hand, and was about to speak, when not far away There was a sound.

"My maidservant has seen Second Miss." Not far from Xiaoting, Li Xia saluted Dong Zhi and then stood in front of Chu Xin'er, showing no intention of moving away.

Chu Xiner looked at the two people sitting in the small pavilion, suppressed her anger, and looked at Li Xia coldly, "Can't Miss Ben go this way!"

Lixia and Dongzhi looked at each other, knowing that this road can only go to the small pavilion, and now she insists on going in, anyone with a discerning eye can see Chu Xiner's thoughts, thinking of this winter solstice is not timid, she is generous She bowed to Chu Xin'er again, and said, "The eldest lady and Prince Jin are here, so it may be inconvenient for the second lady to go."

"Presumptuous! How dare you talk to Miss Ben like that!" Chu Xin'er has been away from the mansion for so long, except for her more irritable temper, she really hasn't improved at all in other areas. Let's not talk about Chu Ruoying's current status in the mansion. Just referring to Ye Shi's matter, Chu Lie's willingness to let her go back to the mansion is already kind.

"Your maidservant is presumptuous, Second Miss forgive me, although Shizi Jin is Second Miss's future brother-in-law, he is still a foreigner after all, now that Second Miss steps forward, I am afraid it will damage her boudoir reputation, Second Miss is also betrothed, it is said It's not good to go out." There was no trace of disrespect in Dong Zhi's words, the words were appropriate, but the light tone made Chu Xin'er even more irritated.

Mu Ziyuan looked at Chu Xiner outside the small pavilion, and a trace of evil flashed in his eyes. He hadn't forgotten about Chu Ruoying who Chu Xiner had designed to frame him many times before.

Chu Ruoying gently reached out and held his stiff fingertips. Mu Ziyuan looked up and saw Chu Ruoying's faint smile, and then he relaxed, looking at the winter solstice outside the small pavilion who never gave up. Asked: "That maid is quite loyal."

Chu Ruoying nodded, and said softly, "Although the time with me during the winter solstice is the shortest, loyalty is worth every penny."

Seeing the growing commotion outside the small pavilion, Chu Ruoying couldn't help shaking her head, and said, "Second sister, please come here."

Only then did Dong Zhi stop, and stepped aside respectfully, "Second Miss, please."

Chu Xiner snorted coldly, walked towards Xiaoting with big strides, stood at the table and gave Chu Ruoying a hard look, then turned around and bowed delicately to Mu Ziyuan, "I've seen Prince Jin. "

Seeing Chu Xiner's two completely different attitudes, Chu Ruoying couldn't help shaking her body, her acting skills have really improved, seeing that Mu Ziyuan didn't mean to talk to Chu Xiner at all, Chu Ruoying couldn't help coughing lightly, He said to Chu Xin'er, "Second Sister, sit down."

Before Chu Ruoying finished speaking, Chu Xiner had already sat on the chair, and Chu Ruoying couldn't help but admire the speed.

"Second sister has been recuperating in Zhuangzi, is she feeling better now?" Chu Ruoying asked with a smile.

Chu Xiner would not be so stupid as to confront Chu Ruoying directly in front of Mu Ziyuan, so she could only lower her head and say, "Everything is fine."

Chu Ruoying nodded, and said in a gentle voice: "Since the second sister is back, she should keep her duty well. In a year's time, she should discuss marriage with the Marquis of Wu'an. Father will not treat you badly."

Chu Xin'er's face froze, she turned her head to look at Mu Ziyuan's expression, gritted her teeth and said, "I will not marry the prince of Marquis Wu'an."

"Nonsense, the emperor has granted you a marriage, how can you say that you won't marry if you don't marry!" Chu Ruoying frowned and looked at the unwilling Chu Xin'er, and there was a trace of anger in her voice.

Chu Xiner raised her head and looked at Chu Ruoying fiercely, her eyes were already showing poison, "Whether I marry or not has nothing to do with you, you don't need to pretend to be kind!"

The corners of Chu Ruoying's lips curled slightly, and she smiled harmlessly, "Second sister, I'm afraid you still don't know, madam, no, Ye Shi has been abandoned by her father, and although you are still the first daughter of the Chu family, but you It’s not like it used to be.”

"You're talking nonsense!" Chu Xin'er naturally didn't know the news. After she returned to the mansion, she happened to meet King Jin who came to hire her, so she just sat in the front hall for a while, then went back to the yard, changed her clothes, and went back to the house. When they were in the front hall, they found that Chu Ruoying had already left with Prince Jin, so she hurried over without understanding the situation in the mansion.

Chu Ruoying was not angry, she still smiled faintly, "Second sister can ask someone if she doesn't believe it, and the servants in the mansion should all know about it."

"Chu Ruoying!" Chu Xiner was so angry that she forgot that Mu Ziyuan was still by her side, she stood up and shouted sharply.

Following Chu Xiner's words, there was a "crack" sound from Mu Ziyuan's hand. Chu Xiner looked down at the broken teacup in Mu Ziyuan's hand, and his sinister eyes. She couldn't help feeling scared. He took a step back, turned around and ran out.

Chu Ruoying took his hand helplessly, took out a brocade handkerchief from her sleeve, wiped off the tea in his hand, and said softly: "She is just a spoiled lady, and she has nothing to be jealous of. Anyway, it's boring, just tease her, why are you angry."

A smile flashed across Mu Ziyuan's eyes when he heard the words, he nodded and said, "You're right, that person really has no brains."

Chu Ruoying couldn't help saying, that's not the point, okay? She was saying that Mu Ziyuan didn't need to be angry about it. This person just heard this, shook his head and said, "Your clothes are also stained with tea, now you don't need to be angry. It's getting late, you should go back."

Mu Ziyuan was in a bad mood when he heard the words, and knew that it was not suitable for the couple to see each other before marriage, so he could only stand up and force Chu Ruoying to send him out of the house.

Here in Chu Xiner's Xinxiang Building, Chu Xiner gathered all the maids in the courtyard, only to find that most of the maids in the courtyard had changed faces, only a few were serving by her side before, she was shocked, He didn't say much, let a maid who was still close to him enter the house, and then let the others disperse.

"Tell me, what happened to my mother?" Sitting in the room, Chu Xiner asked sharply while looking at the maid below.

The little maid trembled. She used to be a third-class maid in Xinxiang Building, and she didn't often serve in the inner courtyard, but only did some chores. Seeing Chu Xiner's angry face, she couldn't help crying: "The servant only knows that Madam made a mistake and was dismissed by the general, and the servant does not know about other things."

Hearing the word Xiuqi, Chu Xiner couldn't help but froze in place, she didn't expect that the mansion had changed a lot after returning from the calamity.

"Where's Yue'er?" Chu Xiner remembered that she didn't have her own maid in her courtyard, which made her even more uneasy, she sat up straight and asked anxiously.

The little servant girl became even more flustered, she shook her body and fell on the ground, crying: "Your servant, I don't know."

Chu Xiner really couldn't sit still at this moment, she stood up and ran towards Chu Lie's study.

"General, Second Miss is here." The servant guarding the study looked at the person coming, knocked on the door lightly, and said in a low voice.

Chu Lie in the room frowned slightly, put away the things in his hands, and tidied up the desk, then said to the door: "Let her in."

The servant in front of the door opened the door, stepped back carefully, and let Chu Xiner walk in. As soon as Chu Xiner entered the room, she yelled at Chu Lie: "Father, how could you divorce my mother?" Woolen cloth?"

Chu Lie was a little impatient when he heard the words, he waved his hand to let the boy close the door, frowned and said: "Your mother made a mistake, as a father, naturally I can't tolerate her."

"What about my mother?" Chu Xiner persisted in asking without being dull, and asked directly, thinking that if she could see Yeshi, maybe Yeshi would come back again.

"Passed away in the prison." Chu Lie said lightly, without a trace of friendship in his tone.

"What!" Chu Xiner took a few steps back in shock, she stood upright with the help of a chair beside her, and said sharply, "Father, why didn't you save my mother? If you treat her like this, you won't be afraid of me." Mother come back for revenge!"

Chu Lie suddenly thought of Ye Shi's tragic death, his eyes finally lit up with anger, he slapped the table fiercely and said: "Presumptuous! This is the rule you learned! Nonsense!"

Chu Xin'er was stunned for a moment, seeing that Chu Lie was angry, she couldn't help but timidly took a step back, and cried, "Father, my mother has already left, and you are still attacking me, woo woo. When Yu came back, did he actually want to give me such a sad news!"

Chu Lie frowned slightly. After all, he was the child he had loved for more than ten years. He couldn't bear it, and said in a deep voice, "Okay, you can go back. This mansion will not lack you."

Chu Xin'er clenched her fists secretly, and said with tears in her eyes, "Does Dad really think so? Then why are there so many fewer people in Xin'er's courtyard?"

Chu Lie has always disliked managing backyard affairs. Hearing Chu Xiner ask this question now, he didn't think too much about it. He just waved his hands casually and said, "Since there are fewer people, add them again. You can do these things yourself."

Seeing that Chu Lie didn't understand what she meant, Chu Xiner could only grit her teeth and stand where she was, and continued, "Where is the maid next to Xiner?"
