On the bustling street, a rose-red carriage with hanging pearl curtains swaggered through the city and went straight to the largest Fuyuan Building in Tongcheng.
There were many carriages parked at the entrance of Fuyuan Building today. When the waiter saw the carriage coming, his eyes lit up and he quickly stepped forward and led the driver from the side path into the back alley.
After the carriage stopped, he actually saw the woman who got off the carriage. She was the most famous beauty in Tongcheng.
The beauty turned around, opened the curtain herself, and reached out to take out a young girl in pink clothes. She seemed to have a leg injury, and it was quite inconvenient to get off the carriage.
Yan Yuxi didn't look at the waiter and directly ordered, "My sister has difficulty with her legs and feet. She will be on the second floor today."
The waiter hurriedly responded, leading the way and leading them into the lobby.
At this time, the lobby was almost full of people, most of them scholars, talking loudly.
Yan Yuxi didn't look at them, but when the people below saw her coming in, they all looked over and whispered, "Is this Miss Yan?"
"Sure enough, the rumors are true."
"Such a beautiful woman is actually married. It's really..."
Yan Yuxi straightened her back and went upstairs without squinting.
Chu Yunli was supported by the maid and looked around with interest. When he saw the group of scholars below looking at Yan Yuxi admiringly, while Yan Yuxi in front looked cold and didn't look at anyone, he twitched his lips.
.
Yan Yuxi is indeed beautiful, but it still takes a lot of effort to attract everyone's attention. From her clothes to her makeup, to the jewelry on her head and the accessories on her waist, everything must be done carefully to make it perfect.
After entering the room, Chu Yunli ordered the dishes and said casually, "Thank you."
Meeting her clear eyes, the waiter couldn't help but smile, "Wait a moment."
Although everyone is vying for Miss Yan, Miss Yan is too arrogant.
When Miss Nie spoke, her eyes met theirs. Even though he was just a waiter, she felt that she didn't mean to look down on her. It was a very comfortable and indescribable feeling.
This restaurant has windows on both sides. One side can see the street, and the other side opens in the direction of the door. When opened, you can see the lobby below.
Not long after sitting down, there was a commotion downstairs, "Master Qin has arrived."
At this time, Chu Yunli was eating snacks. She was a little tired of drinking porridge every day recently. The snacks in this restaurant were outstanding and tasted very good. She raised her eyes and met the smiling eyes of Yan Yuxi opposite, "Mu Yun, Mr. Qin
arrive."
Chu Yunli: "..." Just come, what does it have to do with her?
It suddenly dawned on her that she was now a girl who was madly in love with Mr. Qin. She didn't react when she heard someone coming, which was actually a bit abnormal.
However, others didn't know it, but she knew it. Yan Yuxi in front of her probably also wanted to see her lover. She shook her head and said, "You can't open the window, it's too unreserved."
Yan Yuxi was speechless.
Chu Yunli nibbled on two more pieces of snacks. She wanted to eat more, but thinking that there would be food coming later, she simply wiped her hands with a handkerchief and said, "Originally, I was born in a merchant family and was not worthy of Mr. Qin. If I could catch him,
If it's too tight, he'll hate me."
That sentence "not worthy" really hurt Yan Yuxi's heart.
The Nie family is much richer than the Yan family. Nie Muyun has no chance, and she has no chance.
Marriage is about being from the right family, and everyone knows that a businessman is not good enough for an official family. If her status was not like a natural chasm, she would not have married into the Nie family!
In fact, what Yan Yuxi couldn't accept even more was that even if she married into the Nie family, she would be the one to do it.
Seeing that her expression was not good, Chu Yunli was satisfied and said, "Actually, Mr. Qin is really good. No wonder so many girls in Tongcheng like him. He is already eighteen and has not yet engaged. Maybe he is waiting to marry after high school.
A girl from a well-matched family, a girl from a merchant family like me, I’d better stop thinking too much."
Delusion?
Every word touched Yan Yuxi's heart. She almost couldn't maintain the gentle expression on her face. She covered her face with the teacup and tried to speak calmly, saying, "Not necessarily, what if Mr. Qin has a sweetheart?
Such as you."
Chu Yunli: "..." Sister, don't think that I can't hear the superiority and sarcasm in your words.
The sweetheart refers to herself, and the words "like you" are full of teasing meaning.
"No one looks at me seriously." Chu Yunli waved her hand, "I'm just being indulgent, not stupid."
Listening to everyone outside rushing to say hello to Qin Shengyu, Yan Yuxi was a little anxious, "You are already here, open the window and take a look. You are not engaged anyway, no one can say you are rude..."
"I won't watch it." Chu Yunli said casually, "It's impossible. I'm sad to see it."
Yan Yuxi only thinks she is very annoying!
Just as the waiter brought the food in, Yan Yuxi looked at the window frequently. When she saw him coming in, she hurriedly said, "Open the window, I want to see them fighting poems."
The waiter responded and came to deliver the food. Chu Yunli ordered, "Don't open it."
Then he looked at Yan Yuxi, "I know my sister-in-law likes poetry, but to avoid misunderstanding, I'd better keep the window open. Anyway, I'm listening without using my eyes. It wouldn't be good if people misunderstood who I have deep feelings for.
I’m already fifteen, but I still need a reputation.”
Yan Yuxi couldn't refute these words.
Listening to the elegant and deep male voice mixed with the bustle outside, Yan Yuxi was slightly absent-minded, and the corners of her mouth were slightly raised.
Chu Yunli ate her food seriously, and when she saw her expression, she became interested and said, "Sister-in-law, have you ever had a sweetheart?"
Yan Yuxi came back to her senses and looked at the unopened window, "No."
"No?" Chu Yunli held her chin, "What about my brother? If you don't like him, why are you willing to wait for him for three years?"
After saying this, Yan Yuxi fell silent for a moment, "It's just the order of my parents."
Really noble!
In other words, it was not Nie Munan who she was willing to wait for.
Just at this time, someone's voice came from outside asking Mr. Qin to stay. Yan Yuxi stood up suddenly, then realized that she was moving too much, so she forced a smile and said, "Sister, let's go too."
Chu Yunli didn't move, "I'm not full yet."
"How can the food in a restaurant be as good as the chef at home?" Yan Yuxi asked the maid, "Help your master go home."
Chu Yunli wanted to say something more, but Yan Yuxi already said solemnly, "Sister, don't be willful."
Who is the willful one?
After thinking for a while, Chu Yunli said, "Sister-in-law, I haven't finished eating yet, why don't you go back first?"
This is called willfulness!
"Whatever." Without saying anything, Yan Yuxi didn't care about arguing with her at the moment. After putting away her makeup, she quickly left with her maid.
Wenyu next to him was a little embarrassed, "Girl, if the master of the house knows that you ran away, he will scold you again."
Chu Yunli waved her hand and hopped to the window on the street. When she opened it, she saw Yan Yuxi and Qin Shengyu standing together and talking. They were both talented and good-looking. The woman was smiling lightly and the man was looking at her gently with lowered eyebrows. They really were a good couple.
Wall man.
Wenyu followed her gaze and asked doubtfully, "What did Madam want to say to Mr. Qin?"
Chu Yunli's tone was unclear, "I am an old friend, and Mr. Qin is also the son of the magistrate. The Nie family must have a good relationship with him. My sister-in-law met by chance, what does it mean to say a few words?"
This is a typical yin and yang thing.
Wenyu didn't dare to say anything anymore. Watching the two people below chatting and then parting ways, Chu Yunli sat back on the chair and stood up after a while, "Let's go back."
In addition to the coachman, there were two people on the carriage, the master and the servant. Seeing the carriage passing by the hospital, Chu Yunli shouted to stop, took out a piece of paper and handed it to the coachman, "This is the prescription left by the doctor yesterday. Help me put these medicines together."
Catch him."
The coachman was illiterate, so he took the paper and quickly entered the hospital, and soon came out with a few bags of medicine. Wenyu took her into the carriage and wondered, "Girl, the doctor has prepared the medicine for you, what is this?"
Chu Yunli took it, stretched out her hand and tapped her lips, "Do you know that as a girl, you should be careful in your words and deeds?"
Although it was a joke, Wenyu's face turned serious, "This slave is talking too much."
Returning to the door of the house, I happened to see Nie Munan preparing to ride out. When she saw her carriage arriving, she quickly came over and said, "Sister."
When he saw the good girl in the carriage, he breathed a sigh of relief and then scolded, "You are too silly. How can you go out on the street before your legs are healed?"
"Is sister-in-law back?" Chu Yunli asked again casually as she helped Yu get out of the carriage.
Looking at her legs, Nie Munan was very worried, "She came back and said that you didn't want to come back with her and insisted on making trouble. You had to wait for me to pick her up."
Chu Yunli paused, "Brother, do you believe her?"
Nie Munan didn't say anything, not because he believed in Yan Yuxi, but because his sister's temperament was like this, and she had done things like this before she would come back unless he went to pick her up.
Yan Yuxi is indeed smart, she is very good at catching people's psychology, and her words can touch people's hearts. Moreover, Nie Muyun is a willful girl, so why not just let her slander her?
"If I say, she insisted on taking me out today..."
Nie Munan walked her all the way back to the courtyard, pursed her lips and said, "I know Mr. Qin is at Fuyuan Building, and you want to go see him."
There was silence all the way to Nie Muyun's yard. After entering, Chu Yunli waved the maid away, "I have something to tell you."
She was serious, and Nie Munan frowned slightly, "You don't want to talk about your sister-in-law talking to Mr. Qin, do you? She told me that she and Mr. Qin are old friends, and they just exchanged a few words."
All aspects have really been taken into account.
Now tell him directly that Yan Yuxi and Qin Shengyu are uneasy and kind to the Nie family, and he probably doesn't believe it. After all, Yan Yuxi has been waiting for him for three years. If he didn't really like him, he would have broken off the engagement long ago. Especially in Tongcheng.
Here, reputation is nothing, and outsiders don't care whether you are kind or not.
Forget it, just rely on yourself.
"My sister-in-law came to me today to tell me about Fuyuan Building. During dinner, she offered to open the lobby window several times, but I refused." Chu Yunli looked at him seriously, "I heard that everyone and Mr. Qin
After saying goodbye, she immediately asked me to go out with her. I still refused, and then she left me downstairs to chat with Mr. Qin. The so-called chance encounter was actually a lie..."
The meaning of these words was very clear, implying that Yan Yuxi took her out deliberately, and that there was something going on between her and Qin Shengyu.
"She is my wife!" Nie Munan reminded.
Chu Yunli stood up and hopped to the dressing table, "No need to remind me, you should remind her of this."
"Just because she is the most beautiful woman doesn't mean she doesn't have to draw a clear line with other men when she gets married!"
"Mu Yun!" Nie Munan said in a serious tone, "I know you don't like her, but she is the wife of the Nie family, and her reputation cannot be damaged. If your words get out, the Nie family will be disgraced."
If Nie Munan didn't really care about her sister... She immediately said, "Reputation is not about what I say, but what she does!"
