Reborn to marry ex-husband's nemesis

Chapter 28 Mother Is Too Partial
After returning home, Chu Yan specially stopped Chu Zhi for questioning.

"What did you have with the son before?"

"No." Chu Zhi asked, "Why does Big Brother ask like that?"

Chu Yan pondered for a while and said, "You are very warm to Young Lord Han and very respectful to Young Lord Fu, but you are indifferent to Gu Shizi. It just so happens that Gu Shizi has also been to the Begonia Spring Banquet. I guess you have What a misunderstanding."

"There is no misunderstanding." Chu Zhi said indifferently, "Some people are born to be close to each other, and some are not born to be close to each other, that's all."

Chu Yan was even more surprised, he still didn't believe Chu Zhi's words: "Gu Shizi treats people the most gentle and courteous, there is no one in the whole capital who doesn't like her, why are you..."

"Gu Shizi is indeed very good. It's just that other people like it differently, so it means I like it. In the words of our country, it's just that carrots and vegetables have their own preferences." Chu Zhi paused, "If you really want to say something, Probably because of Princess Pingyang and Miss Zheng!"

So Chu Zhi truthfully told Chu Yan the two things that happened at the Begonia Spring Banquet.

"In order to avoid unnecessary misunderstanding, I can only keep a distance from Gu Shizi."

Chu Yan didn't expect such a thing to happen at the Haitang Spring Banquet, so he said, "It's very good for you to do this, and it really should be."

……

Two days later, the Haitang Spring Banquet ended, and all the female family members of the Chu Mansion returned home.

On the day Chu Xi returned to the mansion, Chu Zhi was making contact with Chu Qing in the yard.

From a distance, I saw Chu Xi coming from the Jiuqu Corridor with a lot of maidservants, refreshed and proud.

With sharp eyes, Chu Zhi saw that there was an extra palace maid behind Chu Xi.

He said, "Why is there an extra palace man behind the sixth sister?"

Chu Qing followed Chu Zhi's line of sight to see that it was not right, so she said, "This palace man..."

"Sister, don't worry, it must be something good." Chu Zhi comforted.

"How do you know it's a good thing?"

"Just look at Sixth Sister's demeanor."

Chu Qing looked again, just in time to see Chu Xi smiling flamboyantly.

Chu Qing was a little relieved, and sent a servant girl over: "Go and find out what happened to Miss Six and what happened to that palace maid."

Chu Qing looked at Chu Zhi: "Since Xi'er is back, mother is also back. Do you want to go and greet her?"

"I'll talk about it later with my mother." Chu Zhi said, "I'll go pay my respects to my grandmother first."

"That's just right, I'm going to grandma's too." Chu Qing said, putting the net in her hand in the flower basket, and stretched out her hand, "Fifth sister, let's go there!"

Chu Zhi put his hand in Chu Qing's, pursed his lips and said with a smile, "Let's go, elder sister."

When the two of them left, the old lady happened to be returning to the house.

Seeing the two of them coming in holding hands, the old lady smiled from ear to ear: "I was thinking that Qing'er was coming back, but I didn't expect you two to play together a long time ago and get along so well. This is the first time I've seen you." Qing'er took the initiative to hold the hand of the little sister at home."

Chu Qing has been taught by the old lady, she is dignified and virtuous in every action, and she is the eldest sister, she should lead by example, and she is strict with herself, never playing around with her younger sisters.

Therefore, it is no wonder that the old lady was surprised.

Chu Qing was a little embarrassed by what the old lady said, her cheeks were slightly red, and she glanced at Chu Zhi: "Fifth Sister is fine."

Ever since Chu Qing learned that her sister was wronged, she has been worried day and night.

Xi'er was pampered and brought up by her mother, even a little bump on weekdays would make her mother feel sorry for her, but Zhi'er suffered day and night in the farmhouse.

Chu Qing is not ignorant, she knows that the farmer's life is hard, and Zhi'er must have suffered a lot of grievances.

But after getting along with each other for the past two days, instead of complaining, Zhi'er said many good things about her adoptive parents and family.

In addition, she also found that Zhi'er is a good girl with a mellow and kind heart and a clear mind. She is also very smart.

Although it's only been two days, she has a close relationship with Chu Zhi.

The old lady smiled and said: "It seems that they are of the same blood, otherwise how could they be so close!"

After Chu Qing talked with the old lady, she went to pay her respects to Mrs. Wu, while Chu Zhi was left behind by the old lady.

"Zhi'er, grandma has something to tell you." The old lady ordered Madam Cao to take an invitation card with red and gilt flowers and handed it to Chu Zhi. For you, the Eldest Princess invited you to the Pear Blossom Banquet five days later, and because you are not here, I specially asked my grandmother to hand it over to you."

In fact, Chu Zhi didn't want to go, but the princess's invitations were delivered to her hand, so she might not be able to go.

Seeing that Chu Zhi was silent, the old lady misunderstood what she meant and thought she was still wronged by the Haitang Spring Banquet, so she said: "The Haitang Spring Banquet was wronged by your mother, I will beat your mother, but You Tong Xi'er, don't be angry, she was spoiled by your mother, she has that temperament, and she has a good heart, this time, when you go to the Princess's Mansion to attend the Pear Blossom Banquet, you should take care of her together, so you should be careful."

Chu Zhi was not surprised when he heard that Chu Xi was going, after all, even she went, so Chu Xi would naturally go.

In the end, when she came out of Rongning Hall and met her eldest sister on the road, she realized that things were not what she thought.

Chu Qing asked: "Do you know why a palace man followed behind Chu Xi?"

Chu Zhi shook his head.

"I went to my mother to find out that after you came back from the Begonia Spring Banquet, Chu Xi fell into the eyes of the Eldest Princess for some reason. Pear Blossom Banquet." Chu Qing smiled, "No wonder she is so airy, no one else has such a blessing."

She changed her voice: "By the way, I just found out about the Pear Blossom Banquet, you..."

"Here is the invitation." Chu Zhi shook the invitation in his hand.

Only then did Chu Qing breathe a sigh of relief: "You can go, I'm afraid that you are the only one who will be missed."

Chu Qing is the prospective daughter-in-law of the Marquis of Yongxing, so she naturally received the invitation, and Chu Xi also has one, so Chu Zhi is left.

Seeing that Chu Zhi also has it now, Chu Qing smiled and said: "Since the eldest princess treats you differently, then you should behave well when the time comes, and with your calm and steady temperament, you will definitely win the nobleman's eyes even more than Xi'er. "

Speaking of this, Chu Qing's eyes dimmed, and she sighed: "I just found out that you returned home early because of Miss Zheng's affairs. No wonder you didn't look good towards Gu Shizi when we drank together that day. It's just this matter." It's really mother who went too far, it wasn't your fault in the first place, and she drove you back indiscriminately."

Chu Qing didn't have much affection for Wu Shi, it was just recorded in Wu Shi's name.

All along, she has always respected her aunt, but what Mrs. Wu said just now made Chu Qing feel very cold.

She knew that Chu Xi grew up beside her mother, and she also knew that Chu Xi was better than them at coquettishly coaxing Wu Shi to be happy, but Wu Shi was too biased, no matter what, Zhi'er was her own sister, and she loved Zhi'er even more if she wanted to hurt her. yes.

What's more, Zhi'er has suffered so much at the farm, and now he has just returned to the mansion, and he doesn't want to make up for Zhi'er. Xi'er pushed it out, even Chu Qing felt that Wu shi was too biased this time, too much.
