Jiangmen Tianjiao: Reborn with funny ancestors

Chapter 21 Enemies meet, extremely jealous.

Chu Ye talked about the progress of his investigation of Qizhen Pavilion in the past few days.

"Ms. Xue confessed that it was her natal sister-in-law who suggested that she go to Qizhen Pavilion to choose birthday gifts."

"Ms. Xue couldn't bear to spend 1 taels of silver on that warm jade pillow. It was her sister-in-law who repeatedly instigated her to buy it."

"I have investigated the Qizhen Pavilion, and it was only opened in the past three years. The owner behind it is very mysterious, and I still can't find out who it is."

"Judging from the customers they deal with, they are all family members of nobles from the imperial court, a mixed bag of good and bad."

"On the contrary, the shopkeeper of the Qizhen Pavilion is a woman in her 30s. I sent someone to try it out and found that she possesses martial arts skills."

"I have sent people to keep an eye on her."

After hearing Chu Ye's progress, Chu Tianjiao frowned. This Qizhen Pavilion existed in his previous life. The antiques in the store were extremely valuable and very popular among the aristocratic circles.

When she was the fourth prince's concubine in her previous life, she also bought some knickknacks there to give away.

"Grandma, I want to go explore the Qizhen Pavilion in person tomorrow."

Mrs. Chu nodded in agreement, and asked Nanny Li to take out 1000 taels of silver notes from her own money and gave it to Chu Tianjiao.

"These 1000 taels are my grandmother's reward for your hard work in finding medicine for me."

Chu Tianjiao accepted the banknote and was about to step forward to act coquettishly when he was pushed away by Mrs. Chu:

"Come on, those who deserve rewards will be rewarded, and those who deserve punishment must be punished. For humiliating the prince impulsively and without brains, you will be punished by eating a pig brain for every meal starting from tomorrow."

Chu Tianjiao wailed, "No, grandma, I have decided to endorse it properly. I don't want to eat pig brains."

When a cup of stewed pig brains appeared on the breakfast table the next day, Chu Tianjiao finally realized that Mrs. Chu meant what she said.

Grandma Li stood aside to supervise with a serious face. It was not until Chu Tianjiao frowned and swallowed the cup of pig brains that her expression relaxed.

"Miss, don't blame the old lady, she is too afraid that she will be gone..."

Speaking of this, Grandma Li's eye circles turned red.

Chu Tianjiao stood up and comforted Grandma Li, saying that he understood his grandmother's thoughts.

How can you not understand?

Although Dr. Wang said that fire turtle blood could be used as medicine to cure Mrs. Chu's illness, the prescription given by Dr. Wang was based on ancient books and had never been practiced at all.

It was precisely because of this that Mrs. Wang did not dare to give medicine to Mrs. Chu rashly. She went back to study with the fire turtle blood, hoping to be more prepared.

If Mrs. Wang's medicine doesn't work, the cold poison in Mrs. Chu's body will break out sooner or later.

After seeing off Nanny Li, Chu Tianjiao was ready to go out.

Lu Dingfeng chased him out of the courtyard: "Miss, I haven't gone shopping for a long time, please take me with you."

Chu Tianjiao hadn't gone shopping for a long time. She felt that Lu Dingfeng was in a worse situation than her, so she agreed.

"I can take you shopping, but you are not allowed to get into trouble again."

"It was you who came up with the evil idea. My grandmother punished me by eating pig brains every day, but I'm so sick of it."

The group of people rode in a carriage and headed straight to the street where Qizhen Pavilion was located.

Chu Tianjiao wore a red embroidered waist-cinching jacket today, with a white narrow-sleeved long jacket underneath.Her hair was tied high on her head, and she wore a red gold hair crown inlaid with east beads.

At first glance, he doesn't look like a boudoir girl, but like a handsome young man.

When she jumped off the carriage, a woman passing by on the street stopped to watch, making a "sizzling" sound and sipping her saliva.

Lu Dingfeng, who was following closely behind, stood on the carriage shaft and began to exclaim: "Shangjing City has become so prosperous!"

Qingluan couldn't bear it anymore and asked Chu Tianjiao in a low voice:

"Miss, this girl Sangbao is getting more and more strange. She grew up in Shangjing City. How come she is like a country bumpkin who has never seen the world?"

Chu Tianjiao frowned, turned around and glared at Lu Dingfeng, reminding him to be careful with his words.

"Qingluan, please take care of Mulberry more often. She was ill some time ago and seems to have injured her head. She is a little crazy."

Qingluan pulled Lu Dingfeng off the carriage and stuffed a bundle for him to take.

The three of them entered the Qizhen Pavilion.

There are some exquisite jewelry accessories on the shelves on the first floor.

The waiter saw Chu Tianjiao dressed luxuriously and came over with a smile on his face.

After a few polite greetings, Chu Tianjiao seemed to have taken a fancy to a peacock hairpin on the display cabinet and picked it up.

When the waiter introduced that this peacock hairpin actually cost 5000 taels of silver, Chu Tianjiao took a breath and put the peacock hairpin back.

"It's too expensive. Are you trying to steal money?"

"It is said that this hairpin was treasured by the queen of the previous dynasty. It is very rare, so the price is a little more expensive."

As soon as the waiter finished explaining, the peacock hairpin was picked up by a woman who had just walked in.

"This hairpin is really beautiful, I bought it!"

Chu Tianjiao raised his eyes and paused.

The woman holding the peacock hairpin is Chu Tianjiao's enemy in his previous life, Ye Tinglan.

When the enemy met, he was extremely jealous.

In his previous life, Chu Tianjiao was poisoned to death by Ye Tinglan.

She fought bloody battles on the front line to leave the country.

Finally, she escaped the weapons of the Xirong people and returned to the palace, but she did not escape the plot of Ye Tinglan and Lu Zhaoling.

Even if he dies, Chu Tianjiao will never rest in peace.

After hanging in the Imperial Ancestral Temple for three years, she felt overwhelmed every time she thought about this matter. She wished she could tear Ye Tinglan to pieces when she came back to life.

The two looked at each other, and the hatred in Chu Tianjiao's eyes made Ye Tinglan take a step back in shock.

"Sister Chu, if you want this hairpin, I'll give it to you..."

Ye Tinglan's voice was delicate and sweet, and she shouted "Sister Chu" as if Chu Tianjiao and her were really like sisters.

Ye Tinglan is Concubine Ye's niece. Since Concubine Ye was favored, the power of the Ye family in the court cannot be underestimated.

But after all, the Ye family is just an upstart, and cannot be compared with a century-old martial arts family like the Chu family.

Chu Tianjiao didn't like to keep up with the women in the boudoir in the capital, so the two of them rarely interacted with each other before.

Chu Tianjiao was punished yesterday for his recklessness. Although he hated his enemies today, he always warned himself not to be impulsive.

This revenge must be avenged, but there is no need to rush.

"Hey, as soon as I walked in, I heard someone complaining that the things in Qizhen Pavilion are expensive. Who am I to be so poor? It turns out to be Miss Chu who has been unable to marry into the royal family?"

The woman who spoke was Zhou Tongyun who entered the store with Ye Tinglan.

Zhou Tongyun's attitude was arrogant, but Chu Tianjiao didn't notice it at all.

Her eyes were always fixed on Ye Tinglan. After finally suppressing the hatred surging in her heart, Chu Tianjiao curled her lips and said with a smile:

"Miss Ye family? You call me sister? I heard that you are half a year older than me. Are you thinking about marrying into the fourth prince's house as a concubine?"

Ye Tinglan was shocked, and she was secretly shocked: How could Chu Tianjiao know my feelings for the fourth prince?

At this time, Ye Tinglan was still engaged, and her relationship with Lu Zhaoling was only nominal cousins.

Ye Tinglan thought that no one in the world knew that the person she actually liked was the fourth prince Lu Zhaoling.

She panicked and her eyes turned red. Zhou Tongyun, who was standing beside her, stopped. While comforting Ye Tinglan, he cursed at Chu Tianjiao:

"Well, you Chu Tianjiao, people say you are vulgar, and it seems that is indeed the case."

"You are dissatisfied because your wedding to the Fourth Prince has been delayed. Why should you take it out on Sister Ye?"

"Who doesn't know that Sister Ye is engaged to my seventh brother? You are blatantly slandering me!"

Zhou Tongyun is the youngest daughter of the Minister of Household Affairs. Her seventh brother, Zhou Jinyun, is a sibling from the same mother. Ye Tinglan and Zhou Tongyun actually have a future sister-in-law relationship.

Unfortunately, Chu Tianjiao knew that Zhou Jinyun, who had accomplished nothing, would die of a sudden illness soon. Naturally, the marriage between Zhou Ye and his family would not be settled.

According to the memory of his previous life, Zhou Jinyun's illness came suddenly this week. After learning that Ye Tinglan could make poison, Chu Tianjiao had to suspect that this was Ye Tinglan's handiwork.

Whether to marry the youngest son of the Shangshu family who has no inheritance to be his wife, or to marry the prince who lives in Qianlong Zaiyuan as his concubine, Ye Tinglan made a very careful calculation.

Chu Tianjiao rolled his eyes at Zhou Tongyun. He was too lazy to follow Sicha and asked the waiter if he could go up to the second floor and take a look.

The waiter said, "We need a VIP card on the second floor of Qizhen Pavilion."

Hearing the waiter say that the VIP card requires an annual consumption of 10 taels, Chu Tianjiao became a little uneasy. When did people in the capital become so luxurious?

So why are there always a shortage of military pay for soldiers?

Zhou Tongyun was gloating on the sidelines and said sarcastically: "I thought the Marquis of Liyang spent a lot of money to get a VIP card for Miss Chu? I didn't expect it to be a shabby house that can't go up to the second floor."

Ye Tinglan stopped Zhou Tongyun from continuing, took out a jade pendant from her purse, and said sincerely:

"Sister Chu, I don't know why you have such misunderstanding of me. My cousin and I are completely innocent."

"You should be my cousin-in-law already. I wish you and your cousin will get married soon."

"I have a VIP card here. Let me take you to the second floor!"

Facing Ye Tinglan's sudden show of kindness, Chu Tianjiao was used to it.

In her previous life, Ye Tinglan also had such a generous and gentle look, which made her think that this "cousin" was very pitiful because she was guarding the family. She agreed to marry Lu Zhaoling to marry Ye Tinglan into the fourth prince's house as a concubine.

At the beginning, Ye Tinglan was quite respectful to her, but when Ye Tinglan became pregnant with her first child, her true colors were revealed and she was framed at every turn.

Chu Tianjiao stared at the VIP card in Ye Tinglan's hand and said sarcastically:

"How greedy is the Ye family? Only a little concubine can spend 10 taels a year in Qizhen Pavilion?"

Ye Tinglan's face changed drastically when she heard this.

Did Chu Tianjiao eat garlic today?So aggressive?

Ye Tinglan is indeed a concubine, but her father's first wife died early and never renewed their relationship.

Although her mother was unable to correct him due to her status, her mother was very favored and her status in the Ye family was no lower than that of the principal lady.

All of Ye Tinglan's food and clothing expenses are equivalent to being a direct descendant.

At home and outside, almost no one thought Ye Tinglan was a concubine.

This Chu Tianjiao took the wrong medicine and he kept kicking her in the heart today?
