The girls are making noise, it’s the New Year.

The prince Lu Yu was the birthday of the first lunar month. The man was twenty years old and the crown prince was a major event. The Pingxi Marquis Mansion sent the invitation before the New Year.

The brothers and sisters of the Lu family have to prepare and celebrate Lu Yu. As a cousin, Chen Jiao has to express her feelings.

My cousin Lu Zhen prepared a sachet that she embroidered with her own hands. Chen Jiao remembered that the original body was also a close-fitting embroidery piece, and it was given out, but it finally appeared on Lu Huan, which shows how much Lu Yu despised her. Chen Jiao didn't want to humiliate herself. After thinking about it, Chen Jiao asked her cousin to accompany her out to the door and picked a shop to buy an inkstone.

On the morning of Lu Yu's birthday, all three bedrooms went to the Wanfu Hall of the Grandma's wife for dinner. Before the Grandma's wife came out, the children would send gifts first.

It was Chen Jiao's turn, and she walked to Lu Yu with her hands in front of her, and said with a smile: "I wish my cousin Yun Cheng a good start and good fortune and longevity."

"Thank you." Lu Yu said lightly, taking the box.

Chen Jiao was the last gift-giving person. After the gift, Chen Jiao retreated to Lu Zhen.

After the mat was dispersed, Lu Yu walked in front and followed Ajin with a bunch of gifts. Lu Huan ran over happily to see what his brother received. When he arrived at Lu Yu's Qingfeng Hall, Lu Yu sat down on the side of the main seat and was less interested in the gifts placed on the table. Lu Huan sat opposite him and grabbed the box that Chen Jiao gave first.

After opening it, Lu Huan saw the elegant but ordinary Duan inkstone inside. He murmured to himself: "What's the cost of my cousin? How good is it to embroider a sachet?" After embroidering, he asked his elder brother for a request, and the elder brother would definitely agree.

Lu Yu looked at Duan Yan and thought of Chen Jiao's polite face when giving gifts. After all, the little girl had never thought of getting close to their brothers.

The remaining gifts are not worth looking through one by one. Lu Huan leaned on the back of the chair, touched the Duanyan box for a while, and whispered to his brother: "Brother, why do you think my cousin always treats me coldly? I have never offended her, right?" He likes this cousin, and hopes that his cousin likes him and smiles at him every day.

He knew that he was lustful and bewitched by Shaoai. Chen Jiao was very beautiful at a young age. Lu Yu could understand his younger brother's obsession with Chen Jiao, but he didn't want his younger brother to continue being stupid.

"She is cold to you, not necessarily because you offended her." Lu Yu said simply by taking a sip of tea.

Lu Huan stared at him: "Why is that?"

Lu Yu hit the nail on the head: "Maybe she just doesn't like you."

Lu Huan:...

If you don’t like it, you don’t like it. He continues to be kind to his cousin. There will always be a day when his cousin likes him!

After the Lantern Festival, the Marquis of Pingxi was going to inspect the border. When he set off, he took away his eldest son Lu Yu.

There was a missing Lu Yu in the Hou Mansion, which had no effect on Chen Jiao's life. Only Lu Huan continued to stick to her. Chen Jiao couldn't avoid him, and gradually got used to it. As long as Lu Huan didn't touch her, it didn't matter that Chen Jiao showed him a few more glances.

As spring is in full bloom, the flowers, plants and trees in the Hou Mansion Garden have been silent for a winter have turned green, and the green and tender colors are pleasing to the eye. The little girls are walking in the garden like butterflies. Chen Jiao takes a red plum tree growing by the water. After greeting everyone, she asked the red apricot to take the easel and sit alone by the pool to paint.

Hongxing stood far away under the shade of the tree, waiting for her master's order at any time. After a while, she saw Lu Huan coming. Hongxing was about to remind her master, but Lu Huan made a gesture of silence at her first.

Hongxing smiled and lowered her head to avoid it.

Lu Huan tiptoed to Chen Jiao.

Chen Jiao was immersed in the painting, not knowing that he was coming. As she was painting, her neck suddenly became itchy. Chen Jiao held a pen in one hand and scratched her neck gently. It was no longer itchy, she continued to draw, but after drawing a stroke, her neck itched again.

Chen Jiao felt strange and turned around while touching her neck.

Lu Huan squatted behind, grinned at her, revealing her white teeth, and a dog-tail grass was spinning in her hand.

When Lu Huan smiled too brightly, Chen Jiao was not angry and turned her head to remind: "If you want to see, just watch it, don't make trouble."

Lu Huan sat next to her.

Chen Jiao only had the Hongmei and the easel opposite her, and Lu Huan looked at her with her head tilted.

"Second brother comes here and fly kites with us!"

On the other side of the garden, Lu Wan is looking for her biological brother.

Lu Huan doesn't want to go.

Chen Jiao advised, "Go, otherwise my second cousin will be angry with me again when she sees you here."

Lu Huan touched her neck and said apologetically: "She is ignorant, don't pay attention to her." It was because he was willing to please her cousin, but his sister always misunderstood her cousin seduced him. Not to mention that Chen Jiao doesn't like listening, Lu Huan doesn't like listening either.

Chen Jiao smiled without saying a word.

Lu Wan's voice was getting closer and closer. Lu Huan stood up helplessly and said to Chen Jiao: "I'll come to find you later."

Chen Jiao looked at the scroll that was almost finished and thought to herself that she would finish drawing quickly and go back immediately after finishing drawing.

Lu Huan left, and it became quieter here again.

Hongxing was a little sleepy. I wonder how long it would take for her master to draw. She sat under the tree and took a nap with her back against the trunk.

When Lu Yu walked slowly over in a white shirt, he saw a girl painting by the lake through the sparse green branches. The little girl turned her back to him, looking like the third sister Lu Ying. The third sister was indeed one of the sisters who liked calligraphy and painting the most, so Lu Yu walked towards this side first. Not long after he returned home, Lu Yu, who had been two months away from home, missed his brothers and sisters at home. He heard from his mother that his younger brothers and sisters were all in the garden, so he came over after changing his clothes.

The man got closer and closer, and Chen Jiao ignored Lu Huan and quickly and seriously finished the last stroke.

After drawing, the footsteps reached more than ten steps behind me.

Chen Jiao put down her brush and looked back.

The moment she turned around, Lu Yu immediately stopped and his heart was full of twists and turns. He had never had any conversation with this cousin, and he couldn't even nod a friendship. Now he misunderstood that she was the third sister and got closer. Will Chen Jiao think that he was visiting her to paint?

In order to avoid her having such thoughts, Lu Yu looked cold and frowned: "I thought it was the third sister, so I was disturbing."

After saying that, Lu Yu turned around and left without waiting for Chen Jiao to reply.

Chen Jiao was surprised by Lu Yu's return, but was also angry by the man's cold face. What was his attitude? She frowned when she saw it, as if she deliberately made her mistake!

After a brief displeasure, Chen Jiao stopped thinking and stood up on the ground. Unexpectedly, as soon as she stood up, the world suddenly rotated...

Lu Yu, who had already walked a few steps, suddenly heard a muffled sound. The sound was so strange. Lu Yu turned sideways and saw Chen Jiao, who was still sitting just now, lying on the grass, spreading her pink skirt, like peach blossoms falling to the ground.

Lu Yu rushed over a few steps, knelt beside Chen Jiao, helped the unconscious girl up, and went to explore her nose with one hand.

Before his fingers touched Chen Jiao, Chen Jiao woke up by herself. She opened her eyes and had a blue sky and white clouds above her head, and a handsome and serious face.

Chen Jiao looked at Lu Yu blankly, her eyes were misty.

Lu Yu suddenly felt that such a cousin was very strange. She was no longer the inexplicably proud cousin, but an ordinary girl who fainted from illness and needed comfort.

"You just fainted." Lu Yu whispered.

Chen Jiao blinked her eyes and remembered that the dizziness was turning. She rubbed her forehead and tried to sit upright by herself, as if it was okay again.

"Thank you, my cousin." After tidying up the hem of the skirt, Chen Jiao lowered her head to thank her.

The delicate little girl who needs care has become a polite and alienated cousin again.

Lu Yu is not Lu Huan. He would never do the kind of thing that puts a hot face on someone’s cold butt, so he got up and left immediately.

"Brother?" Lu Huan, who helped her sister fly the kite, ran over panting and happened to see her brother walking away from Chen Jiao. His eyes were shiny and he called happily.

Lu Yu nodded to his younger brother and said, "I'm here to find you. I've just passed by here and saw her lying on the ground."

When Lu Huan heard this, his brother immediately disappeared in his eyes. He ran to Chen Jiao in a hurry and said nervously: "Cousin, are you okay?"

Chen Jiao didn't know why she fainted.

Seeing that she was confused, Lu Huan woke up the dozing Hongxing with a loud roar. Then he sent Hongxing to the front yard to send a message to the doctor. Lu Huan insisted on escorting Chen Jiao back to the second room.

When the two left side by side, Lu Yu was gone.

After the doctor took Chen Jiao's pulse, he said that Chen Jiao had some deficiency of qi and blood, so he prescribed some tonics. The second family cared about Chen Jiao very much, but Chen Jiao's menstruation came in the evening. When the second wife learned about it, she breathed a sigh of relief. The girl's family was prone to weakness when she had menstruation, and she was also worried about what disease her niece had.

"Be careful not to catch a cold these days." Sitting beside the bed, the second wife gently reminded Chen Jiao.

Chen Jiao blushed a little. She hadn't enjoyed the treatment of being taken care of by her elders for menstruation for a long time. She was inexplicably embarrassed.

The second wife was very pleased and held Chen Jiao's little hand and said, "We Jiaojiao have become big girls too."

The second wife secretly decided that after she chose the marriage for her sixteen-year-old daughter, she would immediately start looking for a candidate for her niece.

The elders had their own plans. The next day, Lu Huan and Lu Che, the cousins, came to visit Chen Jiao.

The teenagers were careless, Chen Jiao didn't know what to say, Lu Zhen was watching the fun, just laughing.

Lu Huan was confused. My cousin was sick, why was her cousin still laughing?

After asking for a long time, Lu Huan returned to the big room with confusion. He walked to the front yard and ran into Lu Yu and wanted to go out.

"What's wrong with being unconfused?" Lu Yu looked at his younger brother and called someone to ask.

Lu Huan touched his head and confessed his doubts to his brother.

Lu Yu ate salt for two years than his younger brother and knew a little more, but he couldn't say anything about the little girl's private matters.

"I don't know." Lu Yu threw the words to his younger brother and went out.

After getting on the carriage and sitting alone in the quiet carriage, Lu Yu thought of the reunion with Chen Jiao by the lake. After not seeing her for two months, her appearance did not change much. She seemed to have grown a little taller, but she was still petite and small. When he held her up, he almost had no weight.
