The hot tea was knocked over on the table, and Shan Cha immediately started to clean up.

"Oh?" Chu Qingyan looked at Shan Cha, who was obviously flustered by her words, raised her eyebrows and raised her tone.

"Camellia is clumsy, please forgive me, Miss Jiu, and I'll pour you another cup of camellia." Camellia, who was made guilty by Miss Jiu's specious tone, immediately concealed her emotions by pouring tea.

Chu Qingyan smiled lightly, "It's okay."

After taking the tea cup that Shan Cha handed over again, Chu Qingyan took a sip, as if she had mentioned it inadvertently, "Shan Cha, do you know why Mrs. Chu suddenly wanted to pick up our family?"

"It should be that Mrs. Chu misses Miss Ninth and Mrs. Boss." Shan Cha replied with lowered eyes.

miss

Hehe, Chu Qingyan couldn't help sneering in her heart. Madam Li said the same thing in Maocun, but in the main hall just now, she only saw Mrs. Chu treating her father and mother with an old-fashioned indifference, and the chair was not hot yet. , is about to leave, maybe in his eyes, they are not as good as the paintings he wants to enjoy, what is there to miss? If she couldn't see it again, she would be really blind.

"Shan Cha, I heard that I have several brothers and sisters, why didn't I see them today?" It was obvious that Shan Cha knew something, so Chu Qingyan planned to adopt a roundabout policy to make a cliché.

"The old man invited a master to several young masters and young ladies, so the young masters and young ladies are all studying. After class is over, Miss Jiu will be able to see them." Seeing that Miss Jiu didn't bother with those questions anymore, Shan Cha was relieved. He breathed back happily.

Shan Cha's emotional changes did not escape Chu Qingyan's eyes, she knew it in her heart, sat down on the chair, resting her chin in her hands, and asked innocently, "Can I go to school with my brothers and sisters from now on? ?"

"I'm afraid Miss Jiu won't be able to..." The blurted words came to an abrupt end, Shan Cha looked at her with an embarrassed expression, and then quickly said, "Miss Jiu, the servant remembers that the kitchen is still boiling water, go and have a look."

Before Chu Qingyan could answer, she had already left the room, as if a dog was chasing her.

Chu Qingyan looked at the figure of Camellia fleeing, leaning on the table and slowly straightening up, the innocent smile on her face gradually receded, she looked at the tea in her hand calmly, and her heart was in chaos. .

Just now, she was just trying to test Camellia, but she didn't expect to find out a little clue.

Something must have happened to the Chu family recently, so I picked up their family not because I missed them, but because of a plan, otherwise Shan Cha would not hesitate and say that she would not have the opportunity to go to school with her brothers and sisters.

If her guess is correct, then the Chu family may be targeting her, because from the moment she entered the Chu family, everyone's eyes have been on her, but she can't understand what the Chu family can plot on her. , she has neither peerless martial arts nor a treasure map, so what can people peep at

This is what she can't figure out.

After sitting in the room for an incense stick, camellia came late again. This time, she brought dinner. Although it was just some pickled vegetables and tofu, it was more abundant than every meal she had eaten here. She had no appetite at all when she was so preoccupied, so she ate two casually.

Shan Cha, who was waiting on the side, looked down at her toes silently. In the afternoon, she almost couldn't resist this ninth miss, who seemed to be bullying but was actually eloquent. Before Miss Jiu's family came, the house was sealed. Password, you must not mention that matter to Miss Jiu, otherwise, you will be dealt with by family law, and you will be afraid just thinking about it.

Chu Qingyan ate absent-mindedly, while Camellia beside her was frightened, for fear that she would ask something that would touch taboos.

After a meal, it was getting dark.

Chu Qingyan stood up, and Shan Cha quickly asked, "Is Miss Jiu ready to take a bath?"

"No, I just finished eating, I want to go for a walk to eliminate food, why don't Shan Cha take me to my mother and father for a walk?" Chu Qingyan returned to the innocent and ignorant girl again, blinking with a pair of big eyes. Looking at camellia.

Shan Cha wanted to say that it was too late and would go again tomorrow, but under the pure eyes of Miss Jiu, she couldn't say it. Although the second lady explained that she could not reveal the matter to Miss Jiu, she did not restrict her freedom, so she nodded and said. , "The servant will take you there."

Chu Qingyan immediately followed her happily towards the place where her mother and father lived.

Going all the way, apart from being remote or remote, it is almost an abandoned garden. Chu Qingyan's face became darker and darker, until Shan Cha told her that her mother and father lived in the humble house in front of her. He immediately stepped up and walked past her.

At this time, Chu's father and Chu's mother were having dinner. When she saw her daughter come in, Chu's mother immediately said to her happily, "Cai Cai is here."

And Father Chu also waved his chopsticks at her, expressing his inner joy.

Chu Qingyan reached out and hugged her mother and father again, before showing a smile, but when she glanced at the food on the table out of the corner of her eyes, the smile on her face froze again.

She walked to the table, picked up the dry and rancid steamed buns and the rice mixed with stones, and looked around the house full of cobwebs and the shabby windows that did not block the wind, she couldn't help feeling angry.

"Caicai, it's alright, as long as you can eat enough." Mother Chu patted her hand and comforted.

Hearing this, Chu Qingyan couldn't help but hug her mother and kiss her eyes, "Mother, why did you go back to the Chu family, and the life was even worse than in Maocun, why don't we go back!"

"Silly child, whatever stupid things you say, come here, how can you easily say something dejected because of such a trivial matter?" Mother Chu smiled softly, stroked her long hair and said softly.

Because Shan Cha stood far away and the mother and daughter spoke in a low voice, she thought that Miss Jiu was red-eyed because she just came to a strange place and couldn't bear her parents, so she didn't notice that something was wrong with Chu Qingyan.

Chu Qingyan suddenly remembered that there was an outsider beside her, stood up straight and said to Shan Cha, "My mother and I want to say something about ourselves, you go outside and help us guard the door, if someone knocks on the door."

"Yes." Shan Cha stepped back and closed the crumbling door by the way.

Chu Qingyan didn't expect Camellia to help her inform her, but just took the opportunity to let her go.

When only the three of them were left in the room, Chu Qingyan said straight to the point, "Mother, don't you think it's a little strange? The Chu family didn't really miss us and brought us to Kyoto, and everyone looked at us. There's something wrong with it, and I take a step back and say that the place where my daughter lives is obviously better than yours, which makes my daughter feel very unreasonable."
