Chapter 261 What a coincidence, I am not favored either (53)
Master Yuan would not ask whether he picked it up only once or many times.
Moreover, this sentence cleverly cleared Bai Chu of the suspicion that he had taken her things away.
Taifu Yuan had always been proud of Yuan Xi, and she felt that such secretive things were extremely dishonorable.
Scholars care more about face than anyone else. Upon hearing this, Yuan Taifu's face turned dark.
Yuan Xi didn't expect that Yin Peng would actually turn against him. Although there was nothing wrong with what he said, Yuan Xi also understood some of the little tricks of speaking.
She was about to explain when she suddenly became confused.
In the eyes of outsiders, Yin Peng has always been with her, and it is impossible for him to protect Yuan Chu for no reason.
And if she said that Yin Peng didn't stay with her afterwards and therefore didn't see the subsequent scene, that would be even less convincing.
Not only was it unconvincing, but her behavior of abandoning Yin Peng halfway was likely to be ridiculed by everyone.
Yuan Xi stood there, his face flushed with anxiety.
Although Taifu Yuan was disappointed, he still held onto some hope and asked her, "Anything else you want to say?"
Anything else to say?
She failed to file a complaint and ended up getting herself into trouble.
Talking about it now will only make things worse.
Yuan Xi knew her mother's personality and she could not tolerate any injustice.
Even if she pampers herself, there are limits and principles.
Yuan Xi gritted his teeth and said, "Yuan Xi was possessed by a ghost for a moment. Yuan Xi will not do it again. He will be more careful in the future."
It's not too late to mend the situation.
After hearing this, Yuan Taifu sighed and said, "You have read so many books, you should know the truth behind it. Don't make the same mistake again."
Yuan Xi lowered his head and acted obediently.
General Lin did not participate in the spring hunt. One reason was that she did not want to form a team with other men, nor did she want to invite the young master abruptly.
Another reason was that she saw Bai Zhu participating.
She had met the second young lady of the Yuan family before, and when she met her at that time, she only thought that she was cowardly.
It was so humiliating that he was bullied by his elder sister, but he didn't know how to refute her.
When I saw him today, I found that he seemed to have changed. Both his expression and behavior were different from before.
As a woman herself, General Lin Xiao admired her changes very much.
Furthermore, when the young master came to see her before, he mentioned Yuan Chu to her and said that Yuan Chu asked him to come to her directly.
Although General Lin didn't say it, he still kept this favor in mind.
If it were any other woman, she would have tricked the young master away long ago.
So when he saw her participating, General Lin no longer had any intention of getting involved.
Although the other party might not win the first place, she still repaid the favor.
But General Lin didn't expect that she would be the final winner.
It was getting dark and fires were lit all around.
The Empress was clearly delighted. "Every generation has its own talents. I never thought that this year's first place would fall to Miss Yuan Er. Tell me, what do you want me to grant you?"
Bai Chu already had the answer in his heart, but he still didn't say it in front of so many people.
She just said, "Your Highness would like to keep it for now."
The Queen agreed with a smile.
This time, she attracted the attention of many young men.
From being disliked by everyone at the beginning, he has become very popular now.
Under everyone's gaze, Bai Chu sat next to Chu Feiling.
When the last ray of light disappeared from the horizon, the queen ordered her men to process the prey and roast it directly.
