Chapter 21: Drugs
"You are talking nonsense, you cheap servant, how dare you slander me!"
Gu Jiaojiao was angry. Although this was indeed the case, how could she admit it?
"Mother, it's Xin Nianyan who beat us. Look at my daughter's hands and the bruises she made."
As she spoke, she was about to lift up her sleeves. Her arm was really tight and painful. It was from Xin Nianyan's beating.
Mrs. Gu saw this and quickly held her hand: "Jiaojiao!"
Gu Jiaojiao was startled and suddenly calmed down.
Turning around, I saw that there were not only ladies from various families, but also some men who came to attend the banquet.
If her sleeves were really lifted, wouldn't these men also look at her?
However, what she didn't know was that even if she did lift it, there wouldn't be any black hair left.
"Mom, she really beat us!" Gu Jiaojiao stopped taking off her clothes, but still defended unwillingly.
She couldn't swallow this loss in vain.
Seeing her like this, even Mrs. Gu couldn't help but feel sorry for her.
But it's useless for her to believe it. Others obviously don't believe it.
"Mrs. Chen, look at what happened today..." Mrs. Gu sighed, pursed her lips and looked at Mu Fuchen.
Although Mu Fuliu was still polite, his attitude became much colder: "Mrs. Gu, just think of what happened today as a fight between children. I just hope that Miss Gu will not cause trouble for our Yan'er in the future. After all, Yan'er
My son is in poor health and cannot bear the hardship."
"Well, I will discipline her well. Then I will take her back first and cause trouble to Mrs. Chen."
After Mrs. Gu finished speaking, she took Gu Jiaojiao and left.
Gu Jiaojiao wanted to resist, but Mrs. Gu glared back.
After they left, everyone's eyes fell on Xin Rouer again.
Xin Rouer clenched her fists and stepped forward to apologize to Xin Nianyan: "Sister, I'm sorry, what happened today was my fault, I..."
"Sister, there is no need to apologize." Xin Nianyan interrupted her: "It's not sincere anyway."
Xin Rouer choked, and the rest of her words were stuck in her throat.
"Auntie, I'm a little tired. Can you arrange a room for me to rest first?" Xin Nianyan leaned on Xiaozhu and said to Chen Mu Fuliu.
"Of course, Jin Yan, help Yan'er to take a rest. Jin Ge, go see if the doctor is here." Mu Fuliu immediately made arrangements.
Chen Jinyan and Chen Jinge agreed, helping others and looking for doctors.
Mu Fuliu entertained everyone back to the banquet hall: "This incident made everyone laugh today, and the food is also cold. I asked the servants to serve another one. Let's eat and drink well..."
Xin Nianyan was taken to a nearby guest room by Chen Jinyan, and a charcoal basin was brought to prevent the room from being so cold.
"Cousin, you have a good rest. The doctor will be here soon."
Xin Nianyan nodded slightly and raised the corners of his mouth: "Well, actually, there's nothing serious about me. Cousin, you don't have to worry."
"It's not a big deal yet. You're already vomiting blood. If this isn't a big deal, then what is a big deal!" Chen Jinyan was angry and distressed, and tucked her into the quilt.
"Yes, miss, are you vomiting blood?" Xiaozhu was also extremely distressed and even spoke with a cry.
"My blood was forced out by my own internal force. It's really nothing serious." Seeing them like this, Xin Nianyan had no choice but to tell the truth.
As expected, Chen Jinyan was very surprised when she heard this: "Ah? Did you force it out with your internal strength?"
"Well, what Gu Jiaojiao said is right. When Xiao Zhu went to find you, I did beat them."
, I was just defending myself.”
Xiao Zhu opened her mouth in surprise, and when Chen Jinyan didn't say anything, she hurriedly defended her young lady: "Miss Cousin, what Xiao Zhu said before is true. They really came to block my young lady, and they even asked her to kowtow and apologize.
.”
She was afraid that Chen Jinyan would be angry and think that the young lady had lied to them.
Chen Jinyan just blinked, and after confirming that what Xin Nianyan said was true, she suddenly smiled.
"If that's the case, then I'm relieved. I'm still a cousin and you were really bullied by them. I'm relieved that you weren't bullied."
Xiao Zhu breathed a sigh of relief.
Xin Nianyan also smiled.
When Chen Jinyan stood up for her at all costs, she knew that this cousin's kindness to her was sincere and unconditional.
He also became more determined to prevent her from marrying into Prince Pingnan's palace.
"Cousin, I heard that my eldest aunt is negotiating a marriage for you, and the target is Prince Pingnan?"
Chen Jinyan was stunned: "Ah...this..."
She knew this. Today she met Prince Pingnan. Although he was not as good-looking as his eldest and second brothers, he was still a handsome young man.
She doesn't have any feelings. If she wants to get married, it's not impossible. Anyway, she will marry anyone.
But when she had an argument with Gu Jiaojiao just now, she had forgotten about it.
Now that Xin Nianyan mentioned it, she remembered it.
"I'm afraid this marriage is going to end badly." Chen Jinyan shook her head and said helplessly.
She had just had such a quarrel with Gu Jiaojiao. Even if it wasn't pornographic, she would not be happy if she married into Prince Pingnan's palace.
Besides, she couldn't accept that she had such a sister-in-law.
"If you're old, then you're old. Cousin, tell your eldest aunt and tell her not to discuss marriage with Pingnan Prince's Mansion." Xin Nianyan said.
Chen Jinyan didn't think much and nodded: "Well, I will tell my mother. I think after today's incident, my mother will not let me marry to Pingnan Prince's Mansion again."
Xin Nianyan thought about it too.
The reason why she made such a fuss today was to create a gap between Guo Gong's Palace and Prince Pingnan's Palace.
This gap does not need to be long, as long as the eldest aunt can give up her marriage with Prince Pingnan.
So from the very beginning, when she gave Gu Jiaojiao a provocative look when she left the banquet hall, she had already calculated it.
With Gu Jiaojiao's temperament, she would not just sit there calmly, and with Xin Rouer's instigation, she would definitely block her.
After that is everything that happened before.
After a while, Chen Jinge came in with the doctor.
After checking the doctor's pulse, he said that Xin Nianyan was not seriously ill, but he had forced himself to vomit blood and had hurt his body, so he needed to be prescribed some medicine.
As soon as the doctor left, a servant came in.
"Second Miss, just now..."
The servant whispered in Chen Jinge's ear and handed her a paper bag.
Chen Jinge's eyes flashed, and he narrowed his eyes: "What?"
"Xiaoge, what's wrong?" Chen Jinyan asked in confusion.
Xin Nianyan also looked at her doubtfully.
Chen Jinge stared at Xin Nianyan for a long time, opened his mouth again and again, and finally said: "Mrs. Xin wants to bribe the servants of the Duke's mansion and drug her cousin."
"Drug? What do you mean?" Chen Jinyan was confused.
