In the afternoon a maid came to the courtyard.

"Miss invites the three of you to have afternoon tea together." The maid lowered her eyebrows and said, "The osmanthus flowers in the yard made a lot of sweet-scented osmanthus wine a few days ago, and even made osmanthus cakes."

Chu Jinsui was drowsy and didn't want to move.

Chengfeng likes all kinds of delicious pastries and sweets, and he already stood up when he heard this: "Sui Sui, let's go!"

Su Yao wiped her sword aside, but she was a little puzzled when she heard this. They didn't seem to be familiar with this lady, but after thinking about it, maybe it was just her hospitality.

The maid led them to a courtyard.

The layout here is more elegant and unique. There is an osmanthus tree planted in the yard, and there is a swing beside the flower stand. Several plates of delicate pastries and a jug of wine are placed on the stone table in the middle of the yard.

Seeing them coming, Liu Yirou stood up, and Shi Shiran saluted: "Hello, three."

Chu Jinsui smiled at her.

Su Yao is uncomfortable all over. She is not used to such red tape etiquette and way of getting along.

"Miss Liu, this pastry looks so delicate!" Cheng Feng had already moved to the table, picked up a piece of flower-shaped pastry, "I couldn't bear to eat it."

Liu Yirou smiled shyly: "I made this myself, I don't know if it suits your taste."

Chengfeng immediately turned his head: "You are amazing!"

She looked at the pastry with petals as thin as cicada's wings in her hand, and took a bite: "What a delicate hand, sweet but not greasy, it melts in your mouth."

Liu Yirou was embarrassed by the praise: "It's nothing special. When I have nothing to do, I can only make some pastries and embroider some embroidery. Everyone, please try it."

Chu Jinsui noticed that even at this time, there was still a small basket beside Liu Yirou.

In the basket was a half-embroidered dress that appeared to be men's clothing.

Several people were sitting at the stone table, and the sweet-scented osmanthus tree above their heads was blown off a few small buds by the wind from time to time.

Seemingly noticing Chu Jinsui's gaze, Liu Yirou explained with a smile: "This is... the clothes I embroidered for my future husband."

A shyness flashed across her face.

Chengfeng bit the pastry, his mouth was vague: "Can't he buy it himself? Do you want someone to embroider it?"

Seeing that she seemed to be choking, Su Yao patted her on the back: "Stupid, this is the same as giving a purse to your sweetheart. It's Miss Liu's affection, but the embroidery on the clothes is more complicated."

Liu Yirou quickly poured a glass of rum and handed it to the choked Chengfeng: "Just drink some rum."

She shyly put the clothes aside: "Brother Jing and I have known each other since childhood, and our family made a marriage contract for us early..."

Chu Jinsui's eyelids twitched suddenly: there was an ominous premonition.

Chengfeng didn't seem to notice the name she mentioned, but asked: "Arranged marriage?"

Liu Yirou nodded shyly: "Well, but we have met several times, every time he comes to Changyuanhou Mansion, he will come to see me."

Chengfeng showed a regretful and speechless expression, and didn't know what to say, so he had to bury his head in the pastry.

Chu Jinsui asked: "Brother Jing you are talking about, is it Wen Renjing?"

"Cough cough cough!" Hearing the name, Cheng Feng suddenly choked and coughed.

Su Yao was taken aback by her, and quickly patted her quilt to make her feel good, her tone full of helplessness: "eat slowly, and no one will grab you."

"Wenrenjing?" Chengfeng took a sip of his wine, "He... this person is very unreliable!"

Liu Yirou was stunned for a moment, then shook her head lightly: "No, brother Jing is very good, and treats me very well."

Chengfeng didn't know how to tell her what Wen Renjing said to Chu Jinsui today: "Anyway, he's a big carrot, not reliable!"

After hearing her words, Liu Yirou didn't show any displeasure, instead she said naturally: "What's the matter, it's normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines."

Now it was the turn of the three sitting opposite her to froze.

Chengfeng tried his best to control his mouth, thinking silently in his heart: Yaobei is like this, Yaobei is like this...

Chu Jinsui felt his head hurt even more. Sure enough, those who were injured should take good care of themselves and rest, instead of coming out to listen to some disapproving words and doubting life.

She thought about it for a while, and said tactfully: "Miss Liu, if you can, you might as well find a man who will treat you wholeheartedly."

In fact, Chu Jinsui was also very uncomfortable when he said this.

If Liu Yirou is in other places, as long as it is not Yaobei, she can independently and freely decide her own life in any country.

But no, this is Yaobei, so even if it is persuasion, Chu Jinsui can't say more.

Liu Yirou had a smile in her eyes, and said in a gentle voice, "I know Brother Jing likes Ms. Chu very much. He sent someone to invite Ms. Chu to reminisce about the old days when you came here."

Chu Jinsui:?

Chengfeng:?
Su Yao: ? ? ?
Liu Yirou went on to say: "Although the king promised the position of concubine at the time of engagement, but if Brother Jing likes someone, I can also be a side concubine."

Chengfeng couldn't even close his mouth, and asked with dull eyes: "Do you know what you are talking about?"

Su Yao couldn't control the strength of her hand that patted her back, and it almost turned into murder.

Chengfeng coughed more violently.

Liu Yirou smiled embarrassedly: "Of course I know, but since Brother Jing likes it, I naturally have no objection, I just hope Brother Jing is happy, so..."

"I have nothing to do with Wen Renjing." Chu Jinsui hastily interrupted her.

Don't say any more, there is already a feeling of wanting to vomit blood due to the recurrence of an old injury.

Chu Jinsui said: "We only met each other before, there is no other relationship."

"My friend and I just came to Yaobei to find something, and we will leave here after we find it."

"So I won't have anything to do with Wenrenjing."

Liu Yirou blinked her eyes with a confused expression: "But..."

"Dengdengdeng..."

There was a sound of chaotic footsteps outside the courtyard, as if a group of people were striding.

Liu Yirou's words were interrupted: "Huh? What's going on?"

The backyard has always been quiet. The ladies and ladies here, even the maids, walk lightly, with almost no footsteps.

These footsteps are heavy and well-drilled.

Chu Jinsui stood up.

"Boom!"

The courtyard gate was slammed open, and a group of people in black clothes and masks appeared at the door.

"Ah!" Liu Yirou was so frightened that her face turned pale, she could hardly stand still, she could only support the table.

Chengfeng and Su Yao also stood up suddenly.

The maids outside the yard didn't know where to go.

"Who are you?" Liu Yirou asked tremblingly.

The man in black rushed forward without saying a word.

Chu Jinsui drew out his sword to block the opponent's attack, and the lowest level of cultivation among these people was Foundation Establishment.

Did you come to the Hou Mansion to seek revenge?Why didn't the other yards hear anything?
