Chapter 216: She Wasn't Like This Before
I have to say that Chu Nanxuan's words played a certain role in Zhou Yuan's porcelain.
Zhou Yuanci seemed to struggle, and then finally stopped. Wei Guogong's status in the family is enough to make Zhou Yuanci, who has already married, still be shocked.
"Lord Chu, what do you want to say, just say it, if you don't have anything to do, you can leave." Chu Nanyue said.
Chu Nanxuan knew that Chu Nanyue must be urging them to speak earlier. Although Chu Nanyue didn't care about their apology, the Chu family couldn't help but express a meaning.
Chu Nanxuan turned his head to look at Zhou Yuanci, hinting at letting Zhou Yuanci make a decision earlier.
And Zhou Yuanci bit his lip, and finally said: "General Chu, it was my fault that day, General Chu has a lot of them, I hope General Chu can forgive me for my ignorance." ”
Chu Nanyue corrected unceremoniously: "Mrs. Chu, there is something wrong with your wording, since you are married to the Chu family, you should follow the Chu family." ”
Zhou Yuanci knew what Chu Nanyue meant. If before getting married, Zhou Yuanci relied on his status as the daughter of the prince, he could make Chu Nanyue jealous and not care about these etiquette matters.
But since she married Chu Nanxuan, she should recognize her status.
"Concubine...... I hope General Chu will forgive! Zhou Yuan said.
Chu Nanyue turned around and didn't look at Zhou Yuanci, but said to Chu Nanxuan: "Lord Chu, everyone is an official in the same dynasty, if everything is thought about, who you want to please or frame someone, this is not comfortable for anyone." Lord Chu wants to ask for my forgiveness now, but it is better to do what is in his hands. ”
Chu Nanxuan became a little embarrassed, and saw Chu Nanyue say to Zhou Yuanci: "Mrs. Chu, I don't care about you. As an official, as long as you can help your husband. As for the apology, I never took anything you said to heart. ”
Zhou Yuanci's face was blue for a while, and white for a while. The greatest contempt is probably that the other party can barely see your existence, and treat all your struggles as nothing.
But both of them knew that Chu Nanyue didn't have a good impression of the Chu family, and this time, even if he didn't care about Zhou Yuanci, he would be even more alienated from the Chu family.
And Zhou Yuanci is already a member of the Chu family after all, and if he provokes such a thing for the Chu family as soon as he marries into the mansion, it is inevitable that he will be talked about by the people of the Chu family.
Fortunately, Wei Guogong's power is great, and Zhou Yuanci has a strong maiden family, and he will not be accused by the Chu family for a while.
But this time, after all, it didn't have any effect, Zhou Yuanci couldn't help but feel uncomfortable, and just saw Zhou Yuanqi running in outside, dressed in dust.
"General! Finally the news! Zhou Yuanqi said happily.
Without paying attention, the dust on Zhou Yuanqi's cloak fell on Zhou Yuanci's body.
"Where are you a minion?! It's dirty, it's staining my clothes! Zhou Yuanci retreated in disgust.
Zhou Yuanqi was stunned for a moment, and the joy on his face had not faded.
Because he has been with the Tuntian soldiers in the suburbs of Beijing for a long time, he has always been doing some farm work. Today, he also went to the field to clean up the aftermath of the autumn harvest, so he was covered with mud.
When he left the Zhou family, Zhou Yuanci was still young, in fact, they didn't recognize each other.
But as soon as Zhou Yuanqi saw that Chu Nanxuan was there, he guessed the matter by seven or eight points.
She is his half-sister, Zhou Yuanci.
"I am a subordinate of General Chu and the deputy general of the garrison on the outskirts of Beijing. Fang Cai accidentally soiled Mrs. Chu's clothes. Zhou Yuanqi replied indifferently.
"Isn't it still a minion after all? Maybe even if you have to pay for this clothes, you can't afford to pay for it, right? Zhou Yuanci did not change his contempt.
Accustomed to being pampered in the Patriotic Mansion, and never in contact with the people in the barracks, Zhou Yuanci was extremely presumptuous, and despised these people who looked at the rough military.
"Mrs. Chu." Chu Nanyue said solemnly. "You were rude to me before, and I can blame you for the past. But if you insist on speaking so badly to my subordinates, don't blame me for giving back to Mrs. Chu one by one. ”
Zhou Yuanqi didn't expect Chu Nanyue to give himself a head, and looked at Chu Nanyue with emotion at the moment. And Chu Nanyue himself didn't feel that there was anything wrong.
She has been able to really mingle with the soldiers and generals for several years, and there must be Zhou Yuanqi's credit. If she saw that Zhou Yuanqi couldn't protect him and say a few words for him, then what qualifications did she Chu Nanyue have to continue to be a general?
Seeing that Zhou Yuanci was about to collapse the situation again, Chu Nanxuan hurriedly came out to play a round: "My wife is not clear about the rank in the army, if she knew that Vice General Zhou was General Chu's right-hand man, she would definitely not dare to say this again." ”
"His surname is Zhou?" Zhou Yuanci whispered, "Just a character like him, is he also worthy of the same surname as me?" ”
Although Zhou Yuanci's voice was extremely small, it was still enough for several people to hear.
Chu Nanyue said in a cold tone: "If Lord Chu and his wife are affectionate, not to apologize, but to make trouble in my General's Mansion, then it is better to leave." ”
Since Zhou Yuanci was born, he didn't feel that he had been treated like this, so he wanted to leave angrily. Chu Nanxuan, who was behind him, only felt that he was not a person inside and out, and seeing Zhou Yuanci leave, he had no intention of staying, so he chased him out quickly.
Since Zhou Yuanci has done this thing, Chu Nanyue has long lost the intention of retaining her, so she will not make any polite retention.
Looking at the few people who could have sat together and chatted, they broke up unhappily because of his sudden arrival, Zhou Yuanqi couldn't help but feel guilty.
"General, it's not good for my subordinates, I didn't expect there to be guests in the general's house, and it seems that everyone is unhappy." Zhou Yuanqi said.
Chu Nanyue smiled gently: "No, you did just right." If it weren't for your business that everyone lifted that politeness, maybe I would still be suffering from that couple. Isn't it a good thing that Yuan Qi helped me get rid of them as soon as possible? ”
Hearing this, Zhou Yuanqi also laughed, and the haze on his face was swept away.
Maybe Chu Nanyue has such a charm that can make people willing to be under her command. But Zhou Yuanqi knew that what convinced him was not those skillful things, but Chu Nanyue's understanding and sincerity.
She is a real good general of Tanglin.
"Yuan Qi, you should know that the one who is with Chu Nanxuan today is your sister, Zhou Yuanci." Chu Nanyue said suddenly.
From the moment he vaguely saw Zhou Yuanqi secretly observing Zhou Yuanci, Chu Nanyue was worried.
After all, she is a younger sister who has been with her since she was a child, but now she is talking about her brother in front of everyone.
Chu Nanyue can imagine that even if Zhou Yuanqi doesn't say it, he may not be able to feel good in his heart.
"My subordinates imagined in the past that they, the children of the Zhou family, would probably change greatly after six years. In fact, the subordinates are prepared. Zhou Yuanqi said bluntly.
Immediately after, Zhou Yuanqi showed great frustration and loneliness: "But general, she was not like this before." ”
