Lord, your mask fell off

Chapter 27

The imperial decree of Nowo set off a big whirlwind in the whole capital, and became the talk of everyone after dinner, and soon the birthday of the old man of the Chu family was coming.

Many people in Beijing attended the birthday banquet with curiosity about the young lady of the Chu family. Even if they didn’t receive the invitation, they tried their best to get it. !
On the day of the birthday, the Chu family was full of people. This was a grand occasion that the Chu family had never achieved even in its heyday. The old man Chu smiled so much that he could see his back molars, thinking that his status in the capital had risen.

The servants of the Chu family came and went with all kinds of cakes, wishing that they would give birth to a pair of hands or feet. The Chu family is very lively today.

Mrs. Xing and the others immediately asked their children to bring out their best clothes, and dressed them in a high-end and elegant manner, because many high-ranking officials and dignitaries came to the banquet, and many of them were young talents and ladies, so the Chu family planned to take advantage of the This time, I will look for my own children who have reached a few ages.

Compared to the bustling scene outside, the wing room in the backyard was relatively quiet. At this time, Chu Qingyan was yawning with her chin propped up.

"Daddy, your shoes are on the wrong side." Kindly reminded.

When Father Chu heard this, he looked down at his shoes, and there was indeed something wrong, so he played a game of changing shoes with himself.

Mother Chu held a pink butterfly skirt and handed it to her, "This was sent by my aunt a few days ago, try it."

When Chu Qingyan saw this color, she couldn't help but twitched her eyes. Why is it this pink? Although she is a loli, she is a 20-year-old soul. She hasn't worn this color for more than ten years, and she feels like she is wearing it again. Back in kindergarten, but when she looked up and saw the expectant face on her mother's face, Chu Qingyan swallowed the words of refusal with difficulty. Forget it, she still has a loli face anyway, so it's like reliving her boyhood!
When the changed clothes came out in the stunned eyes of mother and father, looking at herself in the mirror, Chu Qingyan couldn't help sighing, it really depends on the clothes, at first glance, she is really a pleasing and beautiful doll, she raised her eyebrows Raising eyebrows, the person in the mirror, Gu Pan Shenfei's eyes showed indifference that didn't match his age, and he disappeared in a blink of an eye, returning to a simple smile.

Since this is the first time to appear in front of everyone, then dress up a bit and win the benefits that parents should have!
Previously in the Chu family, it could only be regarded as a small fight. The real battlefield may start today!

She is the granddaughter-in-law handpicked by Emperor Xixuan, and also a marriage gift from Emperor Xixuan himself. There are so many gossips outside who are very curious about her, but she must perform well in order to win more opportunities for her future.

So the person in the mirror moved slightly, and the colorful butterflies on the skirt seemed to be dancing, and the sweet and cunning expression came alive on his face.

Get ready for the first battle!
From the backyard to the front hall, Chu Qingyan gradually felt the lively atmosphere.She pulled her lips and smiled, because of this marriage, the Chu family seems to have gained a lot of benefits, reputation, status——

But from Chu Qingyan's point of view, this is mutually beneficial. When she moves to Prince Ying's Mansion in the future, her parents will need the protection of the Chu family's roof.
As soon as she walked into the vestibule, the sharp-eyed Mrs. Chu caught sight of her, or was just waiting for her to appear.

"Mrs. Lin, didn't you just say that you wanted to meet my Xiaojiu? No, he's here!" Mrs. Chu's voice was quiet, but those gossipmen who had good ears immediately followed the direction Mrs. Chu was looking at. look.

I saw a girl with pink make-up and jade, wearing a butterfly skirt, slowly walked into the compound, with fair skin and a sweet smile, as if she was the jade girl next to Master Guanyin, which aroused love and affection.

"What a smart little girl!"

"Yes! She looks so pretty!"

"..."

There were whispers of praise.

When Chu Yunyu and Chu Yingyu who were sitting not far away heard it, their faces turned black instantly. Just now they enjoyed everyone's compliments, but now the object of everyone's compliments has turned to the country buns they despise the most, how can they feel better?
"What's the use of looking good, don't you want to marry the King of England who everyone fears?" Chu Yingyu muttered displeased.

Chu Yunyu nodded in agreement, "That's right, with such a shabby dress, you're just a country bumpkin!"

Although the voices of the two were quiet, it reached the ears of many people. Many wives frowned when they heard the words. He also underestimated Chu Qingyan, who came from the same family and had similar character!
Chu Qingyan also heard the words of these two people, and obviously felt the contempt in everyone's eyes, and couldn't help feeling the urge to wake them up with a brick. Now that they are in public, even if there are any internal conflicts, they have to get rid of them first. Besides, who is like them, making internal strife!
It's like going out without a brain!No, it should be without thinking at home!
But Chu Qingyan's focus is not on these things now.

"Auntie is well, and the wives are well." Chu Qingyan smiled innocently and greeted each of them.

It's just a ten-year-old girl, cute and sensible, compared to Chu Yunyu and the two who like to gossip, Chu Qingyan's image has been reversed in an instant.

"This Ninth Miss is really as smart as the rumors say, Mrs. Chu is blessed to have such a granddaughter!" A woman on Mrs. Chu's left smiled meanderingly at Chu Qingyan, and then said to Mrs. Chu.

Just now, Mrs. Chu, who was annoyed by her rude remarks to the two sisters Chu Yunyu, heard this, and Mao was immediately pacified, and she even looked at Chu Qingyan with a little more joy in her eyes.

"You are still young and don't understand anything. Thanks to Mrs. Lin's praise! Qingyan, hurry up and thank Mrs. Lin!"

Chu Qingyan immediately blessed Fu's body obediently, and said shyly, "Thank you Mrs. Lin."

The voice is sweet and pleasant, and as soon as he speaks, he is immediately praised by the stars.

Listening to everyone's compliments, Chu Qingyan knew very well in her heart that what they valued was not her, Chu Qingyan, nor the Chu family, but the title of Princess Xixuanying.

However, Chu Qingyan still dutifully played the role of the obedient ninth lady, which made Mrs. Chu feel honored. Seeing this, Mrs. Chu was also in a happy mood, happily talking with the congratulators.

And just as the banquet was about to start, when Chu Qingyan secretly yawned several times, a young servant from outside stumbled in and ran in, with a face as if the blue sky had hit a ghost.

"Grandpa—"

"What's the panic?"

As the head of the family and the birthday star of this birthday banquet, Old Master Chu was the first to speak, with an unhappy tone.

"English--"

"Ying? Shadow?" Old Master Chu frowned.

"The Prince of England is here—" finally finished in one breath!
Hey, the boy looked up, the old man's eyes were staring, his lips were trembling helplessly, what's going on?
