  Chapter 5 Sisters

  Chu Ke stared at the jade pendant, which was clearly not her own.

  The old lady passed away just four months ago, and the girls should be in mourning. As a concubine's daughter, she is more likely to be criticized by others, so she didn't even dare to wear eye-catching clothes like fur coats, and instead wore ordinary cotton-padded jackets. The jade pendant, she didn't bring it out with her, how could an extra one suddenly appear?

  This Zhu Yichen, just a moment ago was still helping himself, seeing himself being privately punished, the pain and sorrow on his face didn't seem to be fake, but in an instant, under everyone's watchful eyes, he ruined his own reputation.

  Chu Xue's mind was racing quickly, but she knew that Zhu Yuxuan was indeed helping her. At least when it came to life and death, this person would stand on her side. As for his current intentions, her reaction could only be to acknowledge it. She bowed slightly in gratitude, just about to thank him and take it over, when suddenly a hand stretched out from the side and snatched it away.

  Everyone followed his gaze and looked back, this time, Chu Yunting didn't pretend, she was really startled and took a cold breath.

  The one who reached out was actually Zhu Yuxu. He snatched the ink jade pendant and, with his head lowered, turned it over repeatedly, a smile on the corner of his mouth as he said without raising his head: "This is mine, I lost it two days ago, and it's actually appeared here."

  Everyone was shocked and stared at him with their mouths agape

  Chu Ke stared at him, Zhu Yuxuan's face turned even paler, and the blood color on his lips quickly faded. Zhu Yuxian seemed to still be studying, with a serious expression that made people unable to doubt his words, raised his head and smiled at Zhu Yuxuan: "Indeed, it was the jade pendant I lost two days ago, thank you for helping me find it back, I thought it was gone."

  What Zhu Yichan just said seems to have vanished like the wind, and everyone seemed not to have heard it. Zhu Yiping smiled first: "It's indeed Third Brother's jade pendant, I saw him wearing it a few days ago."

  Zhu Yuhuan seemed to have a better relationship with Zhu Yu Chen, but he didn't say anything and instead looked away.

  Fourth sister Chu Yun Qing smiled and said: "That's right, with such a jade pendant, how can a woman wear it? It's too ugly."

  Zhu Yingtuo pretended to be angry and glared at her: "Dare to say that my jade pendant is ugly?"

  Chu Yun Qing smiled and pointed at the jade pendant: "It's so big and square, and the pattern is ugly too."

  "Little kid"

  Zhu Yifei said with a spoiled tone, Chu Yunqing scrunched up her nose and smiled, looking really cute, like a little kid. Zhu Yiping couldn't help but take another glance.

  "Let's go, we still have to go to Fangfei Garden."

  He looked at Chu Ke'er, and Chu Ke'er bowed to Zhu Yi Chen: "Second brother, let's go."

  Zhu Yichan's spirits lifted, and he smiled slightly, nodding his head. Zhu Yixu's eyes, however, turned gloomy, and he turned around to walk away with large strides, followed by several women who trailed behind him with light steps.

  Watching them walk away, Zhu Yiping couldn't help but say: "People all say that the Chu family is a family of scholars and officials, with virtuous and beautiful daughters. Now it seems that's really true... If we could marry one of their daughters, we..." Turning his head to look, he suddenly discovered that Zhu Yuhuan and Zhu Yuhan had already left.

  Zhu Yi Huan pulled Zhu Yi Chen a little further away before stopping and complaining, "Second brother, you're being too rash. This will affect Ke Gui's reputation. If things go wrong, it might even lead to... Anyway, I'm clear about this in my heart."

  Zhu Yichen's thin lips were pursed tightly, and he didn't make a sound.

  "Second brother, rest assured, my third brother will not marry a concubine's daughter... after all, he is the son of the empress."

  Zhu Yichan hesitated for a long time before silently nodding his head.

  Zhu Yuxu, who was walking in front, had a gloomy expression all the way until he reached the entrance of Fangfei Garden. He stopped and changed to a calm demeanor, then turned his head to look at the three cousins following behind him, and said with a smile: "We've arrived, let's go in."

  "Isn't Third Brother going in?" Chu Yunqing hastily asked.

  Zhu Yingtuo smiled and shook his head: "Inside are young ladies, it's not suitable for me to go in."

  Chu Yunqing could only nod reluctantly, Chu Keqi and Chu Yunting hastily paid their respects, Zhu Yuxiu turned around with a big stride, and as soon as he turned around, his face darkened.

  Three people entered the Fragrant Garden, and the old woman at the gate led them in. They walked to the second gate, and then a maid led them inside. They entered the courtyard, facing a five-room carved building with a main house, flanked by corridors on both sides. More than ten maidservants were playing on the corridor side. Seeing that someone had arrived, they all looked over this way.

  The house is warm as spring, with several young ladies chatting and laughing together. In one room, a few are drawing pictures, while in another, a group is chatting and eating melon seeds. Two of them are playing Go, surrounded by a circle of onlookers watching quietly.

  Chu Kei tightly followed Chu Yun Ting and Chu Yun Qing, whenever Chu Yun Ting shouted, she would shout too, whenever Chu Yun Ting paid respects, she would pay respects too, and had to identify and remember, so busy that she even broke out in a sweat.

  Finally, Chu Yunqing went to chat with others, while Chu Yunting entered the room where people were playing Go, but instead of watching, she quietly sat down on a chair by the window.

  Chu Ke's movements couldn't be too obvious, so he pretended to be a connoisseur of Go and walked over with a thoughtful expression to watch others play.

  Although she was a princess, Go was also a compulsory course for the princes and princesses in the palace to cultivate their temperament... but... the Aixinjueluo family was born on horseback, not only were the princes skilled in riding and martial arts, even several princesses were better at riding horses than embroidering flowers, and they were also more skilled at playing fist and leg than playing Go.

  Chu Xue was slightly embarrassed. The chessboard in front of her had already entered the final critical stage, and at this level, she basically couldn't understand it anymore...

  It was probably a girl who made a bad move, and the girls watching beside her couldn't help but let out a low sigh of regret. Chu Keqi quickly put on a regretful expression too, but didn't make a sound, because speaking up late would be looked down upon...

  Chu Yunting sat on the other side, quietly observing Chu Kexi who was watching chess.

  Thinking of her own behavior just now, Chu Yunting's face began to burn again. She is now very regretful that she showed herself too clearly and lost the elegance of a young lady, especially making herself look very lacking in demeanor. Her mistake allowed Yun Qing to take the lead in front of Third Uncle.

  Now I know, such a reaction is also bad, feeling terrible...

  However, this made her notice her own younger sister, Chu Yunqing.

  Three sisters, all of whom have reached the age of marriage. They are the thousand gold misses of the Chu Hanlin family, and the reputation of Chu Shao Shi is so great that everyone thinks that the daughters of the Chu family are talented, virtuous, and beautiful, and even the royal families of the imperial princes are eager to marry their daughters, and indeed, two aunts and one sister of theirs have married into the royal family, so these sisters have reached the point where they do not worry about getting married.

  But three sisters who were not worried about getting married all fell in love with the same man at the same time.

  Chu Yun Ting even found it a bit laughable, but as soon as she thought of her cousin Zhu Yue Shi, she couldn't smile anymore. Among relatives and friends, the outstanding man who matched her in status and identity seemed to be only him.

  Zhu Yifei, only eighteen years old, was extremely handsome and elegant, with a radiant complexion, his face as white as jade. What made people unable to look away was the warm smile on his lips, a captivating smile that could kill. And then there was his gentle whisper...whispering a sentence with a hint of teasing in her ear, Chu Yunting believed that no girl could resist such temptation...

  She couldn't resist, already fallen deeply in love. As long as she saw Zhu Yuxu's figure, her heart would thump wildly without stopping. If Zhu Yuxu looked at her alone for a moment, she would feel that he treated her differently from others. If Zhu Yuxu whispered a word in her ear... She felt like she could float up to the sky.

  Although... although that cruel scene always appears in her dreams at midnight, however... she still can't resist

  She knew that in this life, she must marry him and get his heart, get his person, make him spend his whole life only serving under her skirt.

  Chu Yun Ting's eyes revealed a hint of ferocity, Zhu Yi Zuo, I want to make you surrender under my skirt and be unable to extricate yourself, your eyes can only see me, and in your heart there can only be me.

  She lowered her head, pulled out a handkerchief and gently pressed it against the side of her cheek near her temple, where she seemed to be feeling some heat. Among a group of beautiful women, she absolutely could not sweat.

  She glanced at Chu Keqi, thinking to herself that now looking at her aunt, the Princess of De Xing, choosing a wife for her third cousin, it was clear that she intended to choose one of her three sisters.

  But oneself should still be the most hopeful, as long as - - - - - as long as one does not repeat past mistakes.
