The clean room of the Imperial Garden is surrounded by quiet trees. In summer, it is almost covered with green shade. At this time, the trees are depressed in winter, but there are still pine and cypresses proudly green. Chu Sui had been hiding behind a cypress tree before, and Lu Mingyu did not see him all the way.
When Lu Mingyu met Chu Sui's smiling phoenix eyes, he could not guess that Chu Sui was hiding here and waiting for her, so he would have lived for two lifetimes in vain.
Subconsciously, Lu Mingyu quickly glanced around.
"No one here, I've seen it all." Chu Sui said considerately, and his cousin Chu Ying winked when he spoke.
Chu Ying was entrusted by his cousin and helped to trick A Nuan sister into coming. Although his cousin said that he just wanted to apologize to A Nuan sister for what he had done wrong before, Chu Ying still felt a little inappropriate, so she felt uneasy and sweaty on the road. She didn't dare to see Lu Mingyu on the way, and did not talk to Lu Mingyu as usual. Seeing her cousin signaling her to leave, Chu Ying felt relieved, gently broke free from Lu Mingyu's hand, lowered her head and said, "Sister A Nuan, I'll wash my hands first..."
Before Lu Mingyu could reply, Chu Ying ran to the clean room not far away with a red face. She did not take a maid, only Longyuan followed Lu Mingyu.
Chu Sui looked at Longan and ordered lightly: "Go and take care of the second girl."
Guiyuan was so angry that she wanted to laugh and stared at Chu Sui incredibly, "Second Master Chu, do you think of me as the maid of your Duke's Mansion?" She was a maid, but she only listened to the words of the Lu family's masters. Chu Sui was lying to deceive the girl over. Guiyuan knew that her girl didn't like Chu Sui, so how could she be driven by him?
Lu Mingyu turned around and said, "Let's go."
She accompanied Chu Ying out of kindness, but she did not expect that Chu Ying had ulterior motives and was let down. Lu Mingyu would not hate Chu Ying, a truly ten-year-old child, but she would not continue to stay here to deal with Chu Sui.
"A Nuan, I have no other intentions, I just want to ask you about two things." Chu Sui quickly walked around Lu Mingyu, lowered his head, and looked at Lu Mingyu with a serious expression. His sincere tone sounded almost gentle, "A Nuan, I only asked these two things. If I asked clearly, I will never get in the way of your eyes again."
Lu Mingyu didn't want to say a word to him, and he pursed his lips and prepared to go around him.
"A Nuan, I still keep the purse you gave me." Chu Sui didn't move, but reached out to block Lu Mingyu, loosened his clenched fist, and immediately fell down a bamboo green-bottomed purse embroidered with lychees, longans, and walnuts. The rope was pinched between the man's slender and white fingers, which was good at painting, and swayed gently as the man's previous movements.
Lu Mingyu froze and stared at the purse blankly.
The stitches and threads on it were all embroidered by her own hands.
At the age of seven, she secretly embroidered the purse with the big girl's red stitch method on her back. Every stitch was sewn into her feelings for Chu Sui. Every thread knew her shy longing hidden in her heart, and she longed to grow up as soon as possible and marry him in a big red wedding robe again.
But Chu Sui is not worthy of this purse.
Lu Mingyu suddenly took action and wanted to grab the purse back.
Chu Sui had been guarding against her for a long time, and clearly looked at the little girl's eyes from surprise, sadness turned to indifference and anger. Chu Sui instantly clenched his fist and tightly held his purse in the palm of his hand. But his arm did not move, and Lu Mingyu's little hand did not grab the purse, and slapped it firmly on his hand.
Cool and delicate. After the short dewy marriage in Yueyang, this is the second time Chu Sui was touched by a cardamom girl.
He is still a good girl with a peony appearance and a noble status, a girl who is truly worthy of being his wife.
Chu Sui's heart had a ripple. Seeing Lu Mingyu's gaze becoming more and more gentle, Lu Mingyu retracted his hand in anger, staring at his fist as if he was hesitating whether to stay for this purse. Chu Sui lowered his head again, his handsome face almost equal to Lu Mingyu's face, and said softly in a coaxing child: "A Nuan, I promise that as long as you answer my question, I will return the purse to you immediately."
Lu Mingyu had a calm face and stared at his fists only.
The purse was embroidered by her. After so many years, she thought Chu Sui had lost it long ago, so she never thought about it after returning to Beijing, but she didn't expect Chu Sui to stay. This shows that Chu Sui had her in her heart? Lu Mingyu didn't believe it. It was like a cousin Xiao Huan gave her an ordinary gift. She didn't like it, so she asked someone to put it away. The maids must know where to put it. One day she wanted to see it, and the maids took it out.
"A Nuan, you are leaving today. I will find a way to see you next time. Do you want to be wary of me every time you go out?" Chu Sui Xunshi was kind to lure.
Lu Mingyu bites his lip.
"Why are you so unlucky?" Huiyuan couldn't listen and whispered to Chu Sui, "Hurry up and hand over our girl's purse, otherwise I'll tell my wife to go!"
Chu Sui pretended not to hear such a childish threat, and stared at Lu Mingyu with his phoenix eyes persistently. As he got closer, he felt more and more that Lu Mingyu's facial features were delicate, his white face seemed to be made of water, and a faint fragrance of facial fat drifted into his nose. Chu Sui took a sip, well, it was the fragrance of roses.
It's white and fragrant, I'm inexplicably trying to take a bite.
The man's Adam's apple rolled, Lu Mingyu was just hesitating whether to answer Chu Sui's two questions. When he heard the voice, he met a familiar ambiguous look in Chu Sui's eyes. She suddenly realized that the two were too close. Tomorrow she would be thirteen, and her appearance would only be more beautiful day by day. Now Chu Sui has moved that kind of thought. If he continues to get involved in the future, he will definitely be even more reluctant to let go.
"Longyuan, go there and watch, someone comes and reminds me immediately."
The idea was settled, and Lu Mingyu walked towards the cypress tree next to him with a cold face. Chu Sui curled his lips and followed him consciously.
"Stop where are you?" Lu Mingyu pointed at the cypress tree and said, "She stood outside the tree three steps apart, just one person was hiding it."
The little girl was too cautious, and Chu Sui was helpless and funny. He was more curious than amazed to Lu Mingyu. Even if he liked her so much, he would not be able to do anything beyond etiquette to her. Unless he was sure that Lu Mingyu was also pleased with him, Chu Sui could simply shake her little hand and steal some incense occasionally, and he would never do anything more.
"Aren't you going to ask me a question?" The man just saw that she didn't say anything, Lu Mingyu turned his head and asked coldly at the road.
This is in the palace. For the sake of Lu Mingyu's reputation, Chu Sui did not dare to delay too long. After all, he just wanted to solve the problem, but he did not intend to harm Lu Mingyu. After coughing, Chu Sui stretched out his purse again, "The first question, when you saw me that year, you didn't even shout a cousin, why did you think of giving me a purse?"
Lu Mingyu glanced at the purse, recalling the situation that day, and whispered while making up reasons in his mind: "I embroidered it for my father. I hope he won three yuan in a row in the future, but on that day I secretly ran to the male guest to play, and you discovered that I was afraid that you would complain to my mother, so I had to give you the purse, hoping that you would keep it confidential for me for the sake of the gift."
Chu Sui was slightly stunned and stared at Lu Mingyu's eyes suspiciously, "I didn't expect that you remember the seven-year-old so clearly. And you only knew how to give gifts and bribe people." But he didn't believe it very much. How could a seven-year-old girl think of such a worldly way in a short time? Since it was given to Mr. Lu San, why didn't Lu Mingyu put it at home and wear it on her?
Lu Mingyu looked away and Leng Bingbing reminded him, "The second one."
Chu Sui put down his hand, thought for a while, bent down, looked at Lu Mingyu with his phoenix eyes, and asked in a voice that only two people could hear: "In Yueyang, I am traveling to the lake with my sister. Her child's character is pulled me to take a boat. Why did A Nuan scold me when she saw this scene and said she would never want to see me again?"
The elder sister...
When Lu Mingyu listened to Chu Sui lying to her face to face, he couldn't help but laughed sarcastically. He raised his eyes and faced Chu Sui's unexpected gaze. Lu Mingyu did not hide his contempt at all, "Chu Sui, what is your relationship with that girl? You know in your heart that although I was nine years old at that time, I already knew etiquette, righteousness, integrity and shame, and witnessed it with my own eyes... Of course, I have to separate my relationship with a hypocritical and romantic child like you."
Chu Sui's face sank, but Lu Mingyu actually guessed his relationship with Dong Yue'er.
He wanted to defend himself, but Lu Mingyu took a step forward and reached out to him, "Second Young Master, I have said everything you want to know. Please return the purse to me."
"You said it, but you said all lies." Chu Sui straightened his waist and slowly put the purse back in Lu Mingyu's shocked and angry gaze. After doing something to go against his word, he actually smiled at Lu Mingyu, "It's inconvenient to speak in the palace. I'll leave first, and I'll talk to you next time. By the way, Xiangxiang can't hide things in her belly, so I coaxed Yingying to help me. Yingying was simple and weak. If A Nuan wants to blame me, don't be angry with her?"
Lu Mingyu didn't have the intention to pursue Chu Ying's fault at this moment. Chu Xing was so angry that his face turned red and gritted his teeth: "Give me back the purse!"
Chu Sui was still laughing. Relying on Lu Mingyu's helplessness, he swung around from behind the cypress tree, preparing to leave along the way, and went there to revolve with the third prince and others. Unexpectedly, he had only walked ten steps. A gray-robed figure suddenly appeared in front of him. Chu Sui's expression changed slightly. He was about to hide in front of him while the other party found him, but a very aggrieved cry sounded behind him, "Cousin..."
Chu Sui couldn't believe his ears.
When he wanted to turn around, the little girl in a pink palace outfit ran past him, flew towards the solemn brother who was stroking like a pink butterfly. He raised his hand high, and looked like he was wiping tears. Chu Sui was shocked by the difference between Lu Mingyu and his whole body was stiff until his mind came to his mind a few years ago. Lu Mingyu also ran away crying and then complained to his brother against his conscience, saying that he was bullying people...
Chu Sui suddenly felt a headache and didn't want to chase Lu Mingyu, intending to stop her from complaining.
When Lu Mingyu heard the footsteps, he was so scared that he forgot to pretend to cry and rushed towards Chuxing faster.
What kind of morality does a couple in their previous life now run and chase after them?
Chu Xing's forehead leaped with blue veins and shouted in a low voice: "Stop!"
Lu Mingyu trusted him and was afraid of him. When he heard this, his heart was thrilled and he stopped immediately. He looked at the man with a gray face. He was inexplicably sure that Chu Xing would help her the moment before, but suddenly he lost confidence. Chu Xing is a gentleman, but he is Chu Sui's cousin. Will he really support her?
Chu Sui was also afraid of his brother, but his fear was different from Lu Mingyu. After Chu Xing spoke, Chu Sui still ran forward a few steps, finally stood beside Lu Mingyu, gritted his teeth and threatened, "If you dare to frame me again, or carry a purse, I will tell you about the purse you gave me, saying that you have liked me a long time ago."
Lu Mingyu hated Chu Sui's deception and looked down on him for being a mess of flowers and abandoning her. But she thought she was still familiar with Chu Sui. She said this to be a threat to her and would never really go outside to talk nonsense. So she closed her mouth tightly. As soon as Chu Xing arrived, she immediately changed her face and hid behind Chu Xing with tears in her eyes and complained, "Cousin, he stole my purse..."
I have to give it a try. I still have a chance to get my wallet back after I try it. If I don’t try it, I’m afraid I will never get it back in my life.
In order to pretend to be more like a bullied junior, Lu Mingyu bit his lip, raised his little hand, gently pulled Chu Xing's robe, and shook it begging, "Cousin, you are his brother, can you help me come back? He bullied me and asked Yingying's sister to help him. Now Yingying is still hiding in the clean room..."
At this moment, Lu Mingyu was extremely glad that she was short, and she was extremely glad that she would only become thirteen years old tomorrow, one year younger, and she had a little more confidence in "acting coquettish".
Chu Xing's attention was on the little hand that was pulling his. When Chu Sui heard that Chu Sui had actually brought his simple and kind-hearted sister in order to get close to Lu Mingyu, the strange throbbing in Chu Xing's heart instantly sank. He raised his head and looked at his cousin with cold eyes and even colder voice, "Shi Qian, what the Fourth Miss said is true?"
He just found out that his cousin was missing, so he came here to look for it out of concern.
Chu Sui didn't dare to look at his brother, and lowered his eyes, just as he saw Lu Mingyu gloating and pretending to be a tiger's power...a cute face.
Chu Sui was angry and liked this cunning fox. She thought he would be helpless if he found his brother?
Yu Guang saw his cousin walking over, Chu Sui raised his head and looked back at his brother openly, and said calmly: "Brother, I'm a little confused. Only A Nuan can explain it, so I designed to see her here. It's wrong for me to use Yingying. After I got home, I was willing to be punished by my elder brother, but there is something else in the matter of purse. I forgive me for having to keep it for a while. When will A Nuan tell me the truth and I will return her to it."
"Cousin..." Lu Mingyu became anxious and shook Chu Xing again.
Chu Sui bent down before his brother spoke, stared at Lu Mingyu and asked, "A Nuan, the world is conscience, dare you look into my elder brother's eyes and say again, did I snatch this purse?"
Upon hearing this, Chu Xing turned around, looked down at the little girl on the side, with her long eyebrows slightly frowned. Lu Mingyu looked over instinctively and met Chu Xing's narrow phoenix eyes, like an eagle or a falcon, as if she could see through her heart at one glance. With such eyes, Lu Mingyu's lips moved, but she could no longer lie.
I was still complaining before, but I couldn't justify myself in a blink of an eye.
It was like a slap in her face.
Lu Mingyu lowered her eyes and looked at the hem of the Chu brothers' clothes. She laughed mockingly. Who should I blame herself? She blamed her for being blind in her previous life. She thought Chu Sui was wholeheartedly treating her, and blamed her for being unable to suppress her longing after she was reborn. When she learned that Chu Sui had won the case, she was happy and embroidered a purse for him. She even more for underestimating Chu Sui's mind, thinking that he would capture his brother's power and return the purse to her obediently.
Since he doesn't want to get back his purse, then accept it. After calming down, Lu Mingyu doesn't believe that Chu Sui dares to use this purse to make money. He keeps the purse, just to have something to restrain her.
After letting go of his hand, Lu Mingyu didn't want to say anything. None of the two Chu men looked at him and walked around Chu Xing.
The little girl looked calm, but Chu Xing still circled in her heart and let go of his robe, and a faint bitter smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
She was disappointed? She trusted him to ask him for help. Instead of asking her back to her purse immediately, she caused her cousin to ask such a question. The purse was not robbed by her third brother, so it must have been Lu Mingyu who broke her cousin's private life. The girl gave her sweetheart's purse, which was not worthy of public praise, but she was as rigid as Chu Xing, and she knew that this was normal. The girl was sincere when she delivered the purse. My cousin had hurt her once, but she actually...
In front of him, Lu Mingyu forced her to admit that she gave the purse by herself. How embarrassing is the little girl?
"Take it out." Chu Xing said coldly when his eyes moved to his cousin's face.
"Brother?" Lu Mingyu agreed. His elder brother actually wanted to "make justice". Chu Sui was unhappy. Unexpectedly, he raised his eyes, but saw that his elder brother's eyes were cold and cold. He looked like a general riding on a horse, holding a long gun in his hand and ordered him to surrender and surrender.
Chu Sui saw such a brother for the first time, and he was not afraid because he knew that his brother would not have murderous intentions at him, but Chu Sui felt chill all over.
He couldn't understand why his brother was so partial to Lu Mingyu.
Isn't it just a purse? Without the purse, he still has a way to ask what he wants to know.
He took out his purse and stuffed it into Chu Xing's hand. Chu Sui looked cold and left without looking back.
Chu Xing ignored him, nor did he look at the embroidery case of his cousin Yu Wen's purse in his hand, and walked straight towards Lu Mingyu.
Lu Mingyu stopped in shock when he heard the majestic "take it out".
Chu Xing walked up to her and reached out.
His palms were wide, his palms were white, with a thin cocoon, and the bamboo green purse sat there steadily, like a tender bud emerging from a snow-capped mountain, out of place and inexplicably matched.
The purse came back, and Chu Sui's gloomy face flashed in front of her eyes. A guilt suddenly surged in Lu Mingyu's chest, because he helped her, Chu Xing must have been complained by Chu Sui. She picked up the purse carefully to avoid touching Chu Xing, and was about to put it away first and then thank him. However, the man in front turned around and was about to leave.
Lu Mingyu panicked and subconsciously called him, "Cousin..."
Chu Xing paused his feet, leaned his head slightly, and waited for her to continue in silence.
To be continued...
