Chapter 204 Chu Ming guessed the truth
Early the next morning.

The sky was gray and bright, and the servants in the Hou's mansion started to work. The sound of footsteps and chatting disturbed Chu Ming who was sleeping on the rockery.

When Chu Ming woke up on the rockery, he found that it was already dawn, his whole face was as ugly as a Shura, and his aura was so cold that strangers should not come near him.

Back in the bamboo courtyard, Ping An hurried over and asked, "Third Master, where did you go last night? I woke up yesterday and came to your room, why didn't I find your shadow?"

Chu Ming took a sip of tea first, and said in a neutral tone, "Go to the warehouse and get the spices sent by the Essence Academy two days ago."

Ping An was stunned for a moment, a little confused.

Didn't the third master say that the fourth girl's callback spice didn't work well two days ago, and asked him to put it away on purpose?

However, Ping An, who is accustomed to obeying orders, nodded respectfully: "Okay, third master."

After a while, Ping An walked in with a mahogany box, "Third Lord, here are all the spices that Fourth Miss sent last time."

Chu Ming raised his hand, "Light one."

Although he already had the answer in his heart, Chu Ming still wanted to confirm it again.

Ping An felt very strange in his heart, but he still obeyed obediently.

Soon, smoke curled up from a purple-gold incense burner on the table, and the rich fragrance gradually spread to the entire room, wafting in Chu Ming's nose continuously.

The taste of the spices that Chu Jiaojiao used to make is almost the same.

As soon as you smell it, you know it's from her handwriting!

But the Anshen incense brought from Shou'an Hall last time was still slightly different from the fragrance Chu Jiaojiao made.

If he hadn't smelled Anshenxiang near Shaohua Courtyard, and he was not proficient in perfumery, he might not be able to smell the difference.

Chu Jiaojiao's scent is a bit heavier, but the scent of the soothing scent last time is so weak that people can't easily notice it. They will just think it is the unique scent of the room, which makes people feel refreshed.

Ping An saw that Chu Ming's face had darkened since he finished lighting the incense, and his eyes fell directly on the purple gold incense burner on the table. He couldn't help being surprised: "Third Master, but what's wrong with this spice?"

Chu Ming's eyes were turbulent and his emotions were dark. It took him a long time to lower his eyebrows, "Go to the Essence Academy and ask Chu Jiaojiao to come over."

This time, he directly called Chu Jiaojiao by her full name.

Ping An's eyes widened in astonishment, "Master!"

Although the third master was expressionless, he could still feel that the third master was in a bad state at this time.

It's like trying to suppress the anger in my heart, and wait until the fourth girl arrives, and then come out in full force.

"If you need me to repeat it again, you don't have to wait in the bamboo courtyard." Chu Ming raised his eyebrows slightly, and the coldness in his eyes was cast on Pingan.

Ping An suddenly took a tight breath, and quickly bowed his head: "This subordinate dare not."

The third master, who was surrounded by a cold aura, made Pingan a little overwhelmed, "Third master, my subordinates will go to the Jinghua Institute to invite the fourth girl back."

Chu Ming's face paled, and he waved lightly: "When you go to the Jinghua Academy, what to say and what not to say, don't you need me to teach you?" The voice of the last sentence was very flat, but it made Ping'an's back feel cold for a while, and his scalp felt cold. Also numb.

Pingan lowered his head and replied respectfully: "Subordinate...subordinate understands."

Because Chu Ming pampered Chu Jiaojiao and could improve Chu Ming’s insomnia, he could freely enter and exit the bamboo courtyard under Chu Ming’s eyes, and the people serving in the bamboo courtyard, including Ping An, were somewhat like Chu Jiaojiao. " thoughts.

Occasionally, when the girls from the Hou Mansion came to the Bamboo Courtyard, the servants treated them with completely different attitudes, apparently treating Chu Jiaojiao more respectfully.

Ping An also had a good impression of Chu Jiaojiao, so seeing that Chu Ming's expression was not right, she thought that she must remind the fourth girl later to be careful with her words and deeds, so as not to annoy the third master!
But for Chu Ming's warning just now, Ping An has no intention of reminding Chu Jiaojiao at all.

**
Ping An didn't reveal any inside information, Chu Jiaojiao thought that the third uncle had something nice to give to her, so she spent two full hours dressing up meticulously.

Ping An stood waiting in the flower hall. Seeing the passage of time, he felt a little bit dissatisfied with the fourth girl, and whispered softly: "What happened to the fourth girl today? I usually have good eyesight, but now the third master is angry. The girl is actually procrastinating again and again."

After another quarter of an hour, Chu Jiaojiao finally came late, "I'm all right, let's go, don't keep third uncle waiting!"

Ping An smiled and said yes, but for the first time in his heart he rolled his eyes at the fourth girl.

He followed behind Chu Jiaojiao's master and servant, looked up at the well-dressed fourth girl, he couldn't tell what it was like, he only felt how big the fourth girl was!
Chu Jiaojiao was wearing a pale yellow dress, the skirt and cuffs were embroidered with exquisite lotus patterns, the skirt was very elegant, and the makeup on her face was particularly delicate. She was wearing a shiny little crown, which was inlaid with several kinds of jade, and exquisite pearls fell in her hair, adding a bit of beauty.

Looking at the small crown, Ping An couldn't regain his composure for a long time.

Because this little crown was a gift from my third master to the fourth girl!

It turned out to be a dowry gift from the old lady to the future third lady, but she didn't want to be seen by the fourth girl by chance. She liked the little crown very much, so she begged the third lady.

The third master was not interested in these vulgar things at first, but seeing that the fourth girl liked it, he agreed and gave her this little crown!

Chu Jiaojiao didn't know the danger in the future, she was still immersed in the joy, jumping up and down, the pearls on the small crown trembled with her movements, like ripples, which were beautiful.

After a while, I came to the bamboo courtyard.

As usual, Chu Jiaojiao happily stepped into the gate of the bamboo courtyard, but she didn't want the servants in the courtyard to see her, and did not greet her respectfully as usual.

Everyone lowered their heads and didn't even look at Chu Jiaojiao. Even if they accidentally raised their heads and bumped into each other's eyes, the other party would immediately move away and hide away, as if Chu Jiaojiao was someone whom no one dared to provoke. Like a plague god.

Seeing this situation, Chu Jiaojiao became angry, "Are you blind? Did you not see this girl?"

Ping An, who was walking behind her, said angrily, "Fourth Miss, the third master is still waiting in the lobby, you'd better hurry up!" After speaking, he passed Chu Jiaojiao and walked directly to the lobby.

Along the way, Chu Jiaojiao's words and deeds refreshed Ping'an's imagination.

I thought that Miss Si could make fragrance and relieve the third master's insomnia symptoms, but I knew that Miss Fourth had a bad temper, but these were harmless, and my third master never thought it was a problem.

But the fourth girl knew that the third master was waiting in the bamboo courtyard, so it took two hours just to get dressed. On the way, when she saw the servants serving in the Hou's mansion, she would stop and humiliate her every time. With the momentum, he taught the servants a lesson.

Ping An didn't forget that he was also a servant, and seeing the fourth girl like this made her feel even colder!

Chu Jiaojiao widened her eyes in astonishment, seeing Ping An drifting away and leaving without looking back, her temper exploded, "How dare he talk to this girl like that? Did he think that relying on third uncle's power, This girl doesn't dare to touch him? After all, he's just a servant, does he really treat himself like a dish?"

Chunmei next to her was equally angry, "Girl, let me tell you, Ping An thought that he had the support of the third master, so he dared to disrespect the girl, but I don't know that you are the niece of the third master, and when you see the third master later, Be sure to sue for safety!"

Chu Jiaojiao snorted, rolled up her sleeves, "Come on, follow me in to find Third Uncle!"
