Chapter 524 Sister, Your Cooking Skills Are A Bit Scary
Chu Jinyan was silent for a moment after hearing what Lu Xiang said, and then a nonchalant sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth: "It's just speculation, don't worry about it. Prime Minister Liu must have wiped his ass clean after doing this, so he is so fearless."
Lu Xiang curled his lips: "I just think it's disgusting."
The old man's words threw the dirty water on someone else. Although he didn't specify the name, it didn't stop people from imagining it.
Chu Jinyan looked at Lu Xiang gritting his teeth and looking like he was defending him, and his heart softened.
"Don't be angry, there will always be a chance to bully back." He chuckled, and then seemed to have thought of something, looking at Lu Xiang and said: "Although Liu Xiang didn't find out that you plotted against Liu Anhui and Xiao Muheng, I'm afraid Liu Anyao's account is on you. During the time I was away, he didn't do anything to you, right?"
Lu Xiang shook her head and shrugged her shoulders: "No, I am just an insignificant person to him. As long as he can get rid of my father, I, as the daughter of the Lu family, will naturally not be able to escape death."
However, his father is now protected by the Duke of Anguo, helped by the Marquis of Wu'an, and is also the Minister of Works who is highly regarded by the Emperor. Apart from being tripped up by Liu Xiangzheng, his father is still as stable as a rock.
"Even if he is too disdainful to attack you, he may ask others to do it. No matter where you go, take Ah Man with you." Chu Jinyan said.
Lu Xiang responded: "Yes, I understand."
As he was speaking, he suddenly heard voices outside.
"Your servant greets the Sixth Miss. Does the Sixth Miss have anything to do with the Third Miss?" Yun Zha bowed and said.
Lu Qiao: "It's not an important matter. Is she busy? If it's not convenient, I'll come back later."
Yun Zhe hesitated for a moment and said, "Sixth Miss, please wait a moment. I will go and pass the message on."
In the house.
"It's my sixth sister. Leave through the window and don't let anyone see you."
"You can ask her to come later." Chu Jinyan said.
Lu Xiang gasped and glared at him: "No."
She feels guilty.
Chu Jinyan looked at her decisive expression as she chased people away and gritted his teeth secretly.
Waiting, he must sit in the house openly as soon as possible and wait for someone to come and call him "third brother-in-law".
"Then I'm leaving."
Chu Jinyan finished speaking, and Lu Xiang nodded hurriedly: "Hurry up, hurry up."
“…”
I’m so angry, but I’m the one who spoiled him. What can I do?
Just pamper her.
Just as Yun Zha was about to knock on the door, Lu Xiang's voice came from inside the room: "Ask Miss Six to come in."
Huh? The Eighth Prince is gone.
Without waiting for Yun Zha to reply, Lu Qiao had already trotted over and pushed the door open.
Yunzha followed him in, looking around for any place in the room where someone could hide. His gossipy eyes made Lu Xiang laugh and cry: "Yunzha, serve the tea."
"Yes, ma'am."
Yun Zha quickly collected his thoughts and turned around to make tea.
Lu Qiao didn't notice anything unusual between the master and servant. She blinked her beautiful eyes and looked at Lu Xiang: "Third sister, I was just about to go out with my sister-in-law. Guess who's here?"
Her delicate eyebrows are like a crescent moon, the corners of her lips are slightly upturned with a hint of playfulness, her straightforwardness is mixed with charm, and the golden tassels of the hairpin on her head shine brightly on her forehead.
Lu Xiang pondered for a moment and said, "Chen Pin?"
"Huh?" Lu Qiao looked at her in astonishment, her dull little face full of disbelief: "How did you guess it right at the first try?" She didn't even give any hints.
Lu Xiang smiled and said, "You said you were leaving the house with your sister-in-law, but now you came to see me alone. It's obvious that the person who came was looking for your sister-in-law. If you let me guess, it's obviously someone I know. From what I can see now, it seems that there is no one else except Chen Pin since you came to tell me so excitedly."
After all, my sister-in-law only has a handful of friends, so it’s easy to guess.
Moreover, if someone else asked the sister-in-law to go out and play, there was no reason to leave Lu Qiao alone in the house.
It can be seen that it is not convenient to bring Lu Qiao with them when they are going to do something.
"Hehe." Lu Qiao grinned and said, "Then third sister, guess what Miss Shen came to see the eldest sister-in-law for?"
Lu Xiang's mouth twitched slightly: "Do you think I'm a fortune teller, or do you think I'm a worm in Chen Pin's stomach."
Well……
It seems a bit too much to ask.
Hearing this, Lu Qiao didn't keep the secret any longer: "My sister-in-law and I had just walked to the door when we saw Miss Shen's maid jump off the carriage. She said that Miss Shen had made some food for Second Brother Qiao, so she wanted to send it to Second Brother Qiao. But as a girl, it was not easy for her to go to the Hanlin Academy to find Second Brother Qiao alone, so she asked my sister-in-law to accompany her. My sister-in-law was hesitating when she suddenly saw a servant walking towards us. When he looked up, I almost fainted..."
"Is that servant Chen Pin?" Lu Xiang asked when Lu Qiao paused.
Lu Qiao was stunned, staring at Lu Xiang blankly, and finally exhaled after a long while: "Third sister, you are amazing, this is no different from a roundworm."
Lu Xiang: “…”
Thank you, she didn't really want this kind of praise.
Lu Qiao: "Miss Shen came in person, and even disguised herself as a servant to beg my sister-in-law, so it's hard for my sister-in-law to refuse."
Hanlin Academy.
It was lunch time, and people in the room left one after another. Qiao Yuanan wrote the last word and put down his pen. He shook his hands and was about to get up when he saw a yamen runner trotting in: "Qiao Shidu, your sister is here."
Qiao Yuanan was stunned for a moment, then he responded happily, "Okay, thank you for passing it on."
"Mr. Qiao, you are so polite. It's my duty." The yamen runner couldn't help but feel overjoyed when he saw that the top scholar Lang was so polite to him.
Outsiders were not allowed to enter the public housing where Qiao Yuanan lived, so Qiao Jingru waited in the reception room in front. Chen Pin pretended to be a servant and stood behind her. Even his behavior became cautious, with his head slightly lowered. Unless someone looked closely at her face, no one could discover her identity.
Qiao Jingru felt a lot of pressure and didn't dare to sit down, so she just stood there waiting.
Qiao Yuanan came very quickly.
"Fifth sister."
"Second brother." Qiao Jingru called with a smile.
"Why did you come here suddenly? Is there something wrong?"
Qiao Jingru glanced at him in dissatisfaction: "Can't I come to see you if I have nothing to do?"
"able."
Qiao Jingru: "Brother, you haven't eaten yet, right? I'll bring you lunch."
As she spoke, she opened the food box and took out the dishes one by one.
Qiao Yuanan was flattered and felt comforted that his sister finally realized how to be considerate of her brother.
There are not many dishes, just four and one soup, and it looks... okay.
Qiao Yuanan thought to himself that this must have been cooked by his sister herself, and he couldn't help feeling very happy.
He sat down and looked at Qiao Jingru who was standing beside him staring at him: "Sit down and eat together."
Qiao Jingru: "No need, big brother, please try it and see if it tastes good."
Seeing her full of expectations, Qiao Yuanan picked up the chopsticks and put the food in his mouth. His expression suddenly changed and he spit it out the next moment. He looked at Qiao Jingru with horror: "Sister, your cooking skills are a bit scary. Is my second brother not good to you? Why are you trying to trick me like this?"
