Xiangyi looked over curiously.
Laifu also craned his neck to look.
In order to show that you value the gift-giver, unless you specifically explain it, you will usually open the gift in person and express your gratitude.
Chu Yan looked at Xiang Yi, then at Xia Fu, and squeezed the brocade box in her hand.
Xiangyi asked softly: "Miss, don't you open it and take a look?"
I heard that the second young master doesn’t like reading. What kind of gift can he give to an orphan and swear that the lady will like it?
Chu Yan glanced at her and put the brocade box aside: "Since it's an only copy, let's look at it carefully. It's already dark now and I can't see the detail. It's better to hold a lamp and look at it carefully later. No matter what, do it for me. Thank you, Brother Yin."
Xiangyi nodded silently after hearing this. The young lady was thoughtful. I might not be able to tell whether the second young master, who is ignorant and unskilled, is an orphan. If it is a fake, the young lady will admit it in person without checking. Speaking of which, wouldn't it be a waste of money?
Laifu thought of a place with her and left a little disappointed.
Seeing him coming back, Li Yin asked lightly: "How is it? What did she say?"
Laifu looked at him gloomily: "My master has no credibility with the princess at all. I heard that it was an only copy, but the princess didn't dare to open it directly to confirm. Instead, she said that she had to hold a lamp to take a closer look later. OK."
Hearing this, Li Yin raised the corners of his lips: "Of course she wouldn't dare to open it directly."
"Master can actually laugh!" Laifu said with a snort: "If your reputation hadn't been so bad, and if you hadn't been in the martial arts arena yesterday and crowded around the princess like that, how could the princess have such a bad impression of you! "
When Li Yin heard this, he lowered his eyes and said calmly: "What do I want her to have a good impression of me? I'm not the one who wants to marry her."
"Having said that, it's always the case that you don't look up when you lower your head."
Laifu sighed, feeling a little worried: "It's only been two or three days and it's already so stiff. What should I do in the future?"
Li Yin didn't say anything when he heard this. He just turned over a page of the book in his hand and said calmly: "Go and prepare food. Your master, I, have not eaten for a day."
After Laifu left, Xiangyi immediately held the lamp and came over: "Miss, please take a look and see if this unique copy is true or false."
Chu Yan looked at the brocade box in his hand, hesitated for a moment, and then opened it.
Forget it, Xiangyi was someone close to her, and she could hide it for a while, but not for the rest of her life. The entanglement involved should be ignored, and she could just say that she regarded him as a thief.
The brocade box was slowly opened, and Chu Yan was already prepared for Xiang Yi to exclaim.
However, what's inside the brocade box is not a bellyband at all, but a thin book containing serious scriptures.
The breath that Chu Yan was holding in his heart had not yet been released. When he saw the word "nujie" on the cover of the book, he was immediately furious!
He sneaked out in the middle of the night and had an affair with those promiscuous women, staying out all night. In turn, he gave her a book of women's rings, saying that she didn't have the virginity to be a woman? !
Xiangyi was also angry: "Yesterday when we were in the martial arts arena, the second young master said that the young lady has no self-awareness. Today, I sent a female ring. What does he mean?!"
Chu Yan took a deep breath, closed the brocade box and said, "Maybe he doesn't have any deep meaning. After all, this female ring was written by Mr. Ban Zhao himself, and it is indeed an only copy. You also know that he is not a book-lover. Perhaps, he only has such a unique copy."
Xiang Xiang said angrily: "Then he can say goodbye!"
"Don't think so much, I know this well."
Chu Yan handed the brocade box to her and said, "Put it away."
Xiang Yi walked away angrily, and Chu Yan's face gradually darkened.
Very good, she had been well-behaved and polite these past few days, and intended to please him, which made him forget who threw him into the sea!
Early the next morning, Chu Yan went to greet Princess Ning as usual and had dinner with her.
Princess Ning smiled and said: "You don't have to be so diligent. I came here when I was young. At that time, I had a headache when I heard about getting up early. This Prince Ning's Mansion will be your home from now on. How are you at home? In Ning It doesn't matter what the palace is like, you can sleep as long as you want."
Chu Yan glanced at her and hesitated to speak.
Princess Ning looked at her and said, "What's wrong? Is it because you're afraid of being gossiped about?"
Chu Yan shook his head, lowered his eyes, and said in a low voice: "Yesterday, I received a book of women's rings. It must be because I think I am not virtuous and virtuous enough, so I should reflect on myself more."
Princess Ning frowned when she heard this: "Who doesn't have a good eye to give this to me?!"
Chu Yan pouted a little aggrievedly: "He should also have good intentions. After all, when I first arrived in the capital, there were so many pairs of eyes staring at me."
"Good intentions!" Princess Ning said angrily: "I am reluctant to say harsh words to you, but that person dares to push you like this! Who is she?!"
"Auntie, don't ask."
Chu Yan said aggrievedly: "If things get serious, others will say that I am restless. I have made Prince Ning's mansion restless since I first came here."
Of course, Princess Ning had to ask. Not to mention that she and Princess Pingyang were in a relationship, and Chu Yan was the daughter-in-law she personally chose. There was no way that Chu Yan would be wronged under her nose.
However, no matter how she asked, Chu Yan just didn't answer. The question was so urgent that her eyes were red.
Princess Ning had no choice but to order Cui Yuan angrily after she left: "Go and check! Find out who is this blind person who actually gave Yan'er a wedding ring!"
Cui Yuan said with a complicated expression: "Actually, there is no need to check. Yesterday, the prince gave me the hosta that I had long been optimistic about, Aunt Feng gave me a light rhinestone fan, and Aunt Zhang gave me a golden beast incense burner..."
She received the return gifts sent by everyone one by one, and finally said: "Only the second young master sent someone to send the return gifts in the evening. I don't know what they are."
When Princess Ning heard this, she immediately frowned: "He?!"
Cuiyuan nodded: "There is one more thing that I didn't tell you. The first one was in the martial arts field. The prince wanted to go back to change clothes, so he asked the second prince to greet the princess for a while. The second prince once advised the princess to have some Self-knowledge.”
"Excessive!"
Princess Ning was furious: "She's not his wife, so why should he advise Yan'er to be self-aware?!"
Speaking of this, Princess Ning couldn't help but feel distressed: "Yan'er was doted on by thousands of people in Prince Pingyang's Mansion, but when she arrived at Prince Ning's Mansion, she suffered such great grievances!"
Cui Yuan sighed: "I'm afraid the princess felt that she was being relied upon, so she suffered in silence without saying anything."
Princess Ning was extremely angry, but since this matter involved Li Yin, she had to think twice before acting.
She turned her eyes and ordered: "Tell the prince the whole story and tell him. If he is satisfied with Yan'er, then express his attitude!"
Returning to Yunshang Garden, Xiangyi snorted: "Miss, you did the right thing. You shouldn't have endured the injustice. You have to complain when you should!"
"Complain?"
Chu Yan raised his eyebrows: "Just complaining, what's the point."
Xiangyi's eyes lit up: "Miss, what you mean is..."
Chu Yan looked outside the room and said calmly: "It's time to finalize the marriage."
