The Crown Prince in the Jade Pendant

"Isn't coming from the right way?" Madam Gu glanced at the old Mrs. Chu, but she didn't receive the intention to stop, so she continued to ask, "Why is the coming from the wrong way?"

Mother Su said eagerly: "There is a store under the name of Five Girls, called Yunzhi Embroidery Village, isn't it?"

Is there a store under Chu Jinyao's name? The girls in the yard suddenly looked at Mrs. Chu. When did this happen, why didn't they know?

Su's mother peeped at everyone standing in the courtyard like Queen Mother Xian'e. On the top step stood an old lady, probably the old ancestor of the Hou Mansion. Next to this ancestor stood many young daughters-in-law, probably the juniors in the Hou Mansion. The one who combed his hair was the daughter-in-law and the concubine, who did not comb their hair. It's a granddaughter girl. On the other side stood a noble lady, her clothes shining brighter than that of the old lady Chu. Su's mother guessed that this should be what Chu Jinmiao said, a lady from the princess palace.

To be honest, Su Mu was shocked when she saw Chu Jinyao, Chu Jinyao turned out to be like this? If it hadn't been raised in advance, or encountered on the street, Su's mother wouldn't dare to recognize it. Chu Jinyao stood in the corridor with her hands held up, her black hair was like a cloud, her lips were red and her teeth were white, her body was dignified and inviolable, even more dazzling than the authentic Miss Hou Mansion next to her. Su’s mother was surprised, but she also felt like eating. Seeing other nobles, Su’s mother, no matter how rich and wealthy, dare not think of anything else, but seeing Chu Jinyao, who has been drinking since childhood, has also become like this, which makes it hard to accept. .

Sue's mother looked around and found that, except for a few girls who were surprised, the princess in the center had no strange color at all. Yes, after all, she is the empress of the princess mansion. I have never seen anything but an embroidery village. Maybe the princess princess still finds it inexplicable.

Su's mother worked harder and said, "It's not surprising that there is a shop under the name of the girls, so do you know what the shop is coming from?"

"Origin?" Standing in the crowd, the three girls couldn't help but secretly said, "What else could come from? Isn't it from grandmother and father?"

Su's ears were pointed, she shook her head exaggeratedly, and said: "No. This shop is not the property of the masters of the Hou Mansion. The real shopkeeper of Xiu Zhuang is surnamed Wei, and has nothing to do with the Hou Mansion. This Xiu Zhuang is Wei Da The shopkeeper let the five girls buy shares for nothing."

Mrs. Chu listened for a long time, but listened to this kind of stupid rhetoric. She sneered and said, "What am I still saying? That's it. To be honest, the princess said that I have known these things a long time ago. I also know that the shopkeeper distributes dividends to five girls every month."

"Oh?" The princess was very curious. "The dividends are no better than others. People who can't trust them can't do it at all. Why does the shopkeeper Wei give the five girls the bonus in vain?"

"It's a long story." Mrs. Chu thought that these people would do just that. She was disdainful and explained to the princess princess indifferently, "Last year the fifth girl saved a child on the street. These things are all deeds. Thank you gift."

Mrs. Chu had selfish intentions, and wanted to conceal the prince's friendship with their family, so she covered the matter. The princess of the county heard many questions in her ears.

She has also dealt with the store housekeeper, who will use the storefront to pay dividends as a thank you gift? This is too expensive, even if there is a life-saving grace, it cannot be justified. The princess of the county heard this with suspicion, and felt that Changxing Marquis was doing a ghost.

Father Su stood awkwardly, he was not very good at talking, and now he has nowhere to put his hands and feet. Su’s mother disliked Su’s soft feet at home, so she squeezed Su’s father away, sat on the ground crying and robbing the ground, and worked hard: "I used to be a life-saving grace, and I secretly agreed. Her father said that the five girls are all bitter and willing, and it would be worthwhile for us to raise her. But we have been visiting relatives in the city these days, and we heard the folks in the shop saying that their shopkeeper Wei did this to learn from the rich master and spend a lot of money. Smile. Shopkeeper Wei did this, he clearly had other thoughts!"

Mrs. Chu’s eyelids twitched, and she hurriedly drank to Su’s mother: "You old lady, what are you talking nonsense?"

Mother Su patted the ground and cried fakely: "Don't think I'm not good at speaking. Dear grandma's comment, is it what I said? Otherwise, who else would cut his own meat and do such things?"

The little maid hiding behind the pillar had already started to whisper to her companions uncontrollably, and the princess punished in her heart. What the old lady Chu said just now was unclear. Now, when the mad woman said it, it seemed to be true.

Mrs. Chu was immediately furious. How could it be nonsense that this involves the women's festival? She immediately ordered the two lunatics to be beaten out. Su Mulaipi, lying on the ground, cried and shouted, "My poor son." Seeing that it was so noisy, Chu Jinyao took the initiative to hold Mrs. Chu with a godly hand. On the arm, said: "Grandma, you can let someone go down first, and I will talk to her."

Mrs. Chu held back her anger, and temporarily asked Madam Gu to wait with someone beside her.

Chu Jinyao looked at Su's mother who was lying on the ground, who was silly, who had raised her for thirteen years. Until two years ago, she was still calling these two people as parents. Chu Jinmiao's voice was surprisingly calm: "You have nothing to say, but you can't just slander others. You are violating my reputation, can there be evidence? You said it was from the shopkeeper, but the gossip of the shopkeeper Wei, why? Is it an ordinary guy who knows? You just keep your mouth open, you don't arrange what you want to arrange, and now you come to make trouble in front of the distinguished guests."

Su’s mother was taken aback, and she immediately screamed out of her heart: "I have raised you for 13 years, pulling a lot of **** and urinating, and you bury me like this. I have suffered for so many years, and I would rather not have enough to eat. Hey you, in the end, you will be beaten down by you. You said that I was slandering you, but shopkeeper Wei is this kind of thinking. You don't know it yourself. Can you still say that it's impossible?"

Chu Jinyao was blocked, and said in an aura: "You don't arrange the Wei family shopkeeper here, but you have to show evidence!"

"What kind of evidence can this man and woman show? You just want to judge this person, and the Wei family treats you so kindly, do you have such a mind? Do you still need to find evidence!"

This is simply nonsense. There is no evidence and no proof. Just relying on a mouth, and opening your mouth is "how do I feel", and you can make out of nothing and pull out such nonsense. However, although the terrible Mother Su spoke vulgarly, she did stifle the weakness of the woman's reputation. Nowadays, the ethics are strict, and the world's reputation for women is very harsh. If someone is admired and accidentally spread outside, the world will not say that it is not a man, but will only accuse the woman of not being self-respect, and it is clear that the woman has done nothing. Now Su Mu is stubbornly entangled, she can't show evidence, and can't show reason, but it falls in the ears of others, it is Chu Jinyao's fault.

It is too simple to ruin a woman's reputation. Even if you chase the wind and catch the shadow, even if the husband's family believes in the woman more, but for the sake of face and avoiding suspicion, they will retreat from the woman.

The princess of the county thinks like this now.

Although the princess of the county thinks this matter is strange today, but their family is a royal palace, such a noble family, and some innocent women can choose, why is she looking for an unknown daughter-in-law? This woman might be talking nonsense and pour dirty water on Chu Jinyao, but...what if?

If it was the old princess who came today, there is still room for change in this matter, but the princess of the county didn't like Chu Jinyao at all. Now, when she heard it, she immediately changed her mind and felt that this matter needs to be discussed again.

When Mrs. Chu looked at the face of Princess Jun, her heart was cold. She hurriedly signaled to Mother Gu: "Nonsense. Pull them out!"

Mother Su lay on the ground and rolled all over the floor: "Oh, it's going to be a trick. The dignified mansion dare not admit it..."

Chu Jinyao couldn't help it anymore, and shouted coldly: "This is a fake thing. How long are you going to act for? Do you really think I don't know your thoughts?"

"What can I have in mind, I'm all for your own good!"

Chu Jinyao sneered: "I'm so embarrassed to say, I'm afraid you are going to kiss your daughter."

Chu Jin Miaozhi stood aside and watched the play with satisfaction, unpreparedly that Chu Jinyao would burn her alive. Chu Jinmiao was taken aback, and quickly said: "You can't wash yourself, but don't pull me into the water. You yourself just kept saying that you want evidence. What about the evidence when you speak now?"

"Shut up." Chu Jinyao glanced at Chu Jinmiao very unceremoniously, and said, "The wall ash on your own skirt hasn't been cleaned yet."

The girls who watched the excitement immediately turned to look at Chu Jinmiao's skirt. The third girl quietly bumped the sixth girl's arm, and whispered: "Look at that piece, it seems that it was actually rubbing up."

The sixth girl shook her head and motioned to the third girl not to speak. Chu Jinmiao panicked. She wanted to see the hem of her skirt, but she was afraid of leaving a handle, so she held it back. Not to be outdone, she choked back: "I don't know when I rubbed some dust on the skirt, but what does this mean? I don't even know them. What does this have to do with me."

"If it doesn't matter, what are you eager to put away?" Chu Jinyao said, "No one said that you have a relationship with them, but you rushed out to clarify."

Seeing that Mrs. Chu was really making trouble, she interrupted: "Okay, don't say anything. I will ask someone to investigate the matter carefully, and I will definitely give a fair statement when the time comes."

The three girls sneered, obviously disagreeing. Judging by the degree to which Mrs. Chu attaches great importance to Chu Jinyao, she will naturally cover up this matter in every possible way. Can you believe the result?

Old Madam Chu said to the princess princess: "Let the princess princess sit inside. Later, the old man will tell the princess princess the whole story."

The princess nodded hesitantly. She was also the head of the family. She couldn't believe in the so-called result of Mrs. Chu. But when people are in the Hou Mansion, the princess concubine has to give Mrs. Chu this face. After she nodded her head, she was helped by someone to return to the house.

Mrs. Chu breathed a sigh of relief, and put aside the culprit for the time being. The most urgent task now is to make the princess concubine understand and let the princess concubine agree not to care about it.

Mrs. Chu only values ​​interests, not the truth.

Before entering the house, Yang Qixia said unintentionally: "The Fifth Girl has a good life. There is a grandmother who protects her like this."

After hearing this, the princess concubine's face became paler.

When Su's father and Su's mother saw that the people in the Hou Mansion were about to pull them down, they suddenly shouted. Father Su, who is like a saw-mouthed gourd, couldn't help shouting: "We are in a kind heart to confess the news. Don't you be grateful, don't you say that, now you have to bend a trick?"

Su's mother was rolling all over the yard, yelling: "I'm going to lynch the good people, is there any king's law!"

Chu Jinyao's hand trembles angrily. She knows that if someone really pulls Su's father and Su's mother down today, no matter what the final result is, she can't tell. The result is bad. Others will say that she deserves it, and the result is good. These people will also say in a weird manner: "She was the one who bought the complaint."

It was a disaster. Chu Jinyao quietly watched Su Mu’s awkward and ugly performance. She closed her eyes and suddenly said to Madam Gu: "Mother, stop, I have a clear conscience. Everyone’s face can tell."

Madam Gu persuaded: "Girl, they are just a bunch of vulgar farmers, why do you condescend to talk to them?"

"Even if it is a farmer, they are pulling me up. I have to call them a mother and father."

Madam Gu stiffened when she heard this: "Girl..."

"Mother, don't have to be uncomfortable, this is the truth, there is nothing hard to say." Chu Jinyao said, "You get out of the way first, and I will tell them."

Madam Gu was extremely embarrassed, and she stepped back half a step, looking up at the instructions of Mrs. Chu.

Chu Jinyao was already standing in front of Su's mother. Su's mother was lying on the ground and splashing. After Chu Jinyao stood in front, Su's mother was lying and Chu Jinyao was standing. Su's mother couldn't stand it no matter how thick the skin was, she turned over. He got up from the ground in a slanderous manner.

Chu Jinyao faced Su's mother and said: "I used to call you a mother, so no matter what you do to me, I will bear it. When I return to the Hou Mansion later, I will count on your nurturing grace. I didn’t tell anyone. However, I respect you as my elders, but you all want me to die."

Su's mother was about to yell when she heard it. Chu Jinyao didn't give her this opportunity, and continued: "Do you remember how you treated me when you were a kid? In the middle of winter, you asked me to go to the river to wash clothes, and my sister secretly gave her I brought hot water. After you saw it, you kicked and kicked me in front of me and fined me not to eat for one day. You told me to go to the mountain to collect firewood before dawn. After I picked it up, you He kicked it away and scolded me for being lazy, while Su Sheng slept in bed all day, but you were blind and invisible."

Chu Jinyao was a little choked as she said, she took a deep breath to hold back, and looked at Mother Su mockingly: "By the way, why didn't Su Sheng come here for you to do such a big thing today? You must think that Su Sheng wants Those who test fame must not show their faces or come to other people’s homes to do these rogue activities. You have been biased since you were young, and you have always beaten and scolded me. I admit it. Who made me a girl? But I only know now that you are not. It’s cruel to all girls, it’s only to me! You know I’m not your daughter early in the morning, so it’s a blessing to give a mouthful of food, and it’s a good deed if you don’t torture me. But when you tortured me like this , What life did your biological daughter spend in the Hou Mansion? She is beautifully dressed and a servant like a cloud. My parents and relatives really treat her like a daughter!"

Linglong listened uncomfortably, and cried out with tears: "Girl..." The old lady Chu on the side was furious: "How dare they treat you like this?"

Chu Jinyao finally said what she had been holding back for many years. She ignored the outsiders and continued: "At the beginning, you deliberately replaced me and wanted your daughter to live a good life. Later, if it wasn't for my father to decide. , I will be kept in the dark by you all my life. Since my father found me back, and the man looked forward, I didn’t plan to care about the past. But now your daughter has lived a rich life, she It's the Fourth Miss from Changxing Houfu, what else do you want? Why do you want to jump out and ruin my life? Do I owe you?"

There were already people in the yard who couldn't listen to them. They turned their heads and couldn't bear to listen anymore. Even the people in the Prince's Mansion couldn't bear it. For these noble ladies who can't step on the ground, how can they think of how terrible the maliciousness of the bottom will be. The people beside them all felt angina, but Chu Jinyao, the party concerned, was very calm. Her grievances and uncomfortable feelings were long gone.

Su's father and Su's mother were confronted by Chu Jinyao, and when they were asked, they stepped back and couldn't say a word. And this is not over, what is the use of calculating the old accounts before? These pains have passed, and Chu Jinyao really wants to settle with them, it is the current accounts.

Chu Jinyao suppressed the tumbling emotions, and continued: "Because of you, I have been outside for thirteen years, and the frostbite on my hands won't heal in a winter. Because of you, my biological mother is not close to me. , I still have a grudge with me. And now, for Chu Jinmiao, do you want to hurt me again? Why do you choose to enter the mansion today? Why don't you say anything else, but the embroidery village under my name? Without insiders taking it, you two outsiders can’t even recognize the road, how can you get here. Your thoughts are so clear that I am afraid that I will block the way of your biological daughter, but you even said that it was all for the sake of I'm good?"

After Zhao heard that Chu Jinyao said what life he was living in Su's house, he was surprised and surprised. She has lived in a wealthy family all her life, and she doesn't know how to work. She thinks that although the Su family is in the countryside, it only has a lower cost of food and clothing. Now that Chu Jinyao said, she knew how outrageous she was.

Zhao's lips wriggled, trying to say something, but he didn't have a chance to say it. She didn't know that Chu Jinyao had such a life in the past, if she knew, she would not neglect Chu Jinyao. After Zhao heard that Chu Jinyao said that his biological mother was not close to her, Zhao was even more heartbroken and couldn't help crying with his head turned.

Su Mu was already a little panicked by Chu Jinyao's serial interrogation. She said all of these issues. She did it according to Chu Jinmiao’s arrangement. Mother Su did not dare to hurt Chu Jinmiao, so she resisted a glance and didn’t look at Chu Jinmiao, and replied: "You have complaints against us. It's our own business. Don't involve others. What's the matter with the four girls?"

Chu Jinyao laughed mockingly: "You all fight and scold me, but you protect a strange woman who has only seen a few sides. Sure enough, your biological daughter is different."

Chu Jin stood far away regardless of his own affairs, and replied after hearing these words: "Chu Jinyao, be careful when you speak. I don't know them. Don't connect these two hillbillies with me."

Chu Jinyao looked at Su's father and Su's mother sarcastically: "I heard that you have committed your life to offend the rich and powerful, but she still thinks you are vulgar. Thanks to Chu Jinmiao for leading the way. Otherwise, how could she get wall dust on her skirt."

"Shut up!" Chu Jinmiao panicked and yelled, "Do you have any evidence that you dare to spit people here? I don't even know them. The dust on the skirt was just rubbed on during a walk."

"Dare you say that you have never been to the second door, and have never seen the Su family before?"

Chu Jinmiao gritted his teeth and said, "I dare."

Chu Jinyao and Chu Jinmiao were in a stalemate. The princess of the county watched for a long while and said to Mrs. Chu gently: "Old lady, the two ladies of your house are clever-toothed."

Mrs. Chu was embarrassed. The most important thing for a woman is to be supple. Being articulate is not an advantage. The Rongning Hall was noisy, and suddenly a person ran in outside the courtyard. When the visitor saw Su's father and Su's mother, his face suddenly became pale with anger.

"Why are you here?" Su Hui was so angry that she had a toothache, and she rudely took Su's hand and went out. "I'll say how you are talking about you recently. It turns out that you are here to bully Yaoyao. She. If you have a good time, wouldn't you just let her go?"

Mrs. Chu frowned: "Who is this? Why can anyone come in in the back house?"

The voices of Lin Xiyuan and Lin Xining sounded from outside, and the second young master also came with them.

"We brought it." The Second Young Master said, "I heard that there was a disturbance in the backyard, so I came with Shizi. When we passed by, we just saw this woman begging in the concierge. I asked the people around her fifth sister. She can talk about making peace, and the elder son said that if she really had something to report, he brought it together."

When the princess saw her son, her expression was much more relaxed, and she asked softly: "Yuan'er, why are you here?"

Lin Xiyuan didn't speak. He looked at the mess in the yard and asked, "What's wrong?"

Su Hui tried to pull Su's mother out: "You save time, you haven't seen Yaoyao since you were a kid, and now everyone is home, what are you running over? Ashamed, you go home with me!" Su While twisting Su's mother, Hui said to Mrs. Chu and the princess: "Sui Hui, a national girl, was the foster sister of the fifth girl. My parents and their parents have problems in their brains. They used to say something and nothing. This is the case in the village, and the madness has been committed again in a few days, so don’t take it seriously, ladies."

It turned out to be the daughter of the couple, and the ladies present suddenly realized that since their daughters have all come out to speak, it seems that the couple is not clear on their minds. Mrs. Chu's expression relaxed, and said: "After a long time of trouble, it turned out that it was a madman who said crazy things, but it was even arranged on our five girls. It is really a disaster."

The princess's expression also loosened, is she really crazy? Chu Jinmiao saw that something bad was going to happen, and she was itching for Su Hui at the moment. She pretended to inadvertently and said, "Is it a brain disease? But I see them talking and doing things, they don't look like sick people. For people and children. You can’t talk nonsense about cursing your parents. I just saw them talking in a very organized manner.”
