Chapter 5: Late night visitor

"Yeah, didn’t the third sister always say that she likes the'red jade carving pendant' from the treasure pavilion, let me buy it for you? As one of the treasures of the treasure pavilion, the price is naturally high. Could it be... The third sister can't get the money? But... the people at Zhenbao Pavilion were looking at the face of our Chu family, and they promised me to pay a thousand taels in advance to buy the things..."
Chu Liuyue looked embarrassed.
The great elder beside him almost didn't come up at once.
Nineteen ninety thousand taels!
Even for the Chu family, it is not easy to spend so much money at once!
He looked at Chu Xianmin, even if he liked Chu Xianmin any more, he was very dissatisfied at this time, and coldly scolded:
"Minmin! You are too naive!"
If the Chu family's name is sacrificed, then this thing must be bought!
Otherwise, if this matter spreads out, the outsiders don't know what they will say about the Chu family!
Chu Xianmin opened his mouth, trying to defend himself, but couldn't say anything.
She didn't ask Chu Liuyue to help her buy things at all, let alone the two hundred thousand taels worth of red jade carving pendant from Zhenbao Pavilion!
That thing has been famous for a long time, but it is a treasure made of top luxury ruby.
Although it is helpful for spiritual practice, it is far not worth two hundred thousand taels! So for so long, no one has bought it!
I didn't expect Chu Liuyue to be so cunning!
This is to make her resist the 200,000 taels!
Chu Xian was trembling all over with angrily. If it weren't for the great elder, she would have rushed over to tear Chu Liuyue's mouth!
For so many years, she has saved only four or five thousand taels of silver on her own. For her, these two hundred thousand taels are simply a big hole!
However, because of the Chu family's reputation, she had to take this matter!
"This... Don't worry, Great Elder, Qian Minmin will definitely take out this money by himself..."
She gritted her teeth and grinned reluctantly.
"My mother has always loved Minmin, and she had promised before that if Minmin can get the first place in this college assessment, it will meet one of Minmin's requirements."
Chu Xianmin's mother, Lu Yao, was born in the Lu family, and was one of the best merchants' homes in the entire imperial capital.
She said this on the one hand to show that she could get the money no matter what, and not to embarrass the Chu Family, on the other hand, it was also to use the Lu Family's momentum to raise herself.
Sure enough, when it comes to the Lu Family, the Great Elder's expression has eased a lot.
"Your mother really loves you the most. However, this is also because you are already excellent. I remember, the college assessment will start after a month, right?"
The Tianlu Academy where Chu Xianmin is located is the top existence in Yaochen Nation. Those who can pass the exam are all enviable geniuses!
Even the children of the royal family have to be assessed if they want to enter!
Chu Xianmin is also very much loved in the Chu family because of this identity.
"Yes."
Chu Xianmin was more confident, and then he didn't know what he thought of, a shyness appeared on his pretty face.
"Brother Jin too-His Royal Highness also said that if Minmin can win first place, he will be rewarded."
Chu Liuyue raised her eyebrows slightly.
The so-called Brother Jin in her mouth is naturally the current Prince Rong Jin who has a marriage contract with Chu Liuyue!
Seeing her like this, everyone can see that there must be something between her and Rong Jin!
The big elder's eyes lit up:
"really?"
His Royal Highness is extremely talented and capable, and is deeply loved by His Majesty.
The Chu family is now declining. If it could climb the big tree of the prince, it would be different naturally!
Chu Xianmin seemed to have thought of something suddenly, glanced at Chu Liuyue quickly, and explained nervously:
"Sister, don't get me wrong. Brother Jin and I are really fine! He must have taken care of me in every way because of the marriage contract with you. If my sister can enter the college, Brother Jin will definitely treat you. more--"
Her words stopped abruptly.
Who didn't know that Chu Liuyue was born with waste and couldn't even do normal cultivation, let alone enter Tianlu Academy?
As for the marriage contract... if someone really took this marriage contract to heart, Chu Liuyue would not be bullied so far!
Chu Ning gritted her teeth, but her heart gradually became cold.
I thought that waiting another month for Yue'er to get engaged with the prince would change the status quo, but... now it seems that it is just his wishful thinking!
I heard earlier that the prince seemed interested in Chu Xianmin, but I didn't expect to have reached such a blatant position!
They didn't pay attention to Yue'er at all!
Pity his Yueer, she is infatuated with the prince...
Chu Xianmin secretly looked at Chu Liuyue proudly, wanting to see the painful color on her face, but unexpectedly, Chu Liuyue didn't seem to care about it at all. Not only was he not shocked and disappointed, but he also laughed.
"That's great. As long as the third sister can come up with the money."
Chu Xianmin was taken aback. How did she feel that to Chu Liuyue, His Royal Highness seemed to be less important than the 200,000 taels...
"The matter is over. Daddy and I will go back first."
After speaking, Chu Liuyue actually turned and left with Chu Ning.
"you--"
Chu Xianmin seemed to hit the cotton with a punch, and suddenly felt a blockage in his chest.
Chu Liuyue who walked to the door suddenly stood still and turned around.
She stared straight at Chu Xianmin with her jet-black cold eyes, and she was carrying a heavy and silent pressure!
"By the way, in the future the third sister’s mouth, but be careful when you speak. If I didn’t come back in time today, wouldn’t everyone think that I stole your things and ran away? Then I’m really dead and can’t be washed away, you say yes Isn't it?"
Chu Xianmin suddenly fought a cold war!
She got it!
She must know it all!
Chu Xianmin wanted to refute a few words, but felt an invisible force enveloped her head, unable to move!
It wasn't until Chu Liuyue's figure disappeared outside the door that she slowly came over, a cold sweat on her forehead!
A cruel look was drawn across Chu Xianmin's eyes.
It seems that we have to check the situation of Song Lian first, and then find a way to completely solve Chu Liuyue!
…
Chu Liuyue and Chu Ning returned to the remote courtyard where they lived.
"Yue'er, you have been tired for a day today, take a rest!"
Chu Ning patted Chu Liuyue's head distressedly.
Chu Liuyue looked around quickly, even though she had the memory of her predecessor, when she really saw it, she still sighed in her heart.
It is said that it is a small courtyard, but it is actually just a few dilapidated houses, and the house is almost surrounded by clans.
It's clear at a glance how the father and daughter lived.
Speaking out, I am afraid that no one will believe that Chu Ning, who was once the next heir of the Chu family, and Chu Liuyue, the nominal eldest lady of the Chu family, will live in such a place.
Chu Liuyue nodded gently:
"Daddy too."
Chu Ning's lips moved, and he wanted to ask something, but in the end he just sighed slightly.
"Yue'er, Dad knows that you like the prince, but... I'm afraid he is not your beloved. Chu Xianmin has a good talent and is backed by a family. You are targeting like this today, I'm afraid it is—"
Chu Liuyue smiled softly.
"Daddy, don't worry, Yue'er knows it well."
Chu Ning was full of worries, and suddenly she couldn't speak when she met those smiling but calm eyes.
Yue'er, she... seems to be really different...
He nodded and rubbed his daughter's hair before turning around.
Chu Liuyue's gaze fell on his barely supported right leg, quickly moved away, and then opened the door to enter the room.
The night was hanging outside, and a ray of moonlight streaming in from the dilapidated window.
Chu Liuyue walked to the window, tapping lightly with his fingertips, her eyes deep.
She had already asked during the day that today is the tenth day of July in the 832nd year of Yaochen Kingdom. Compared with the calendar of the Tianling Dynasty, it is exactly the day when "she" died one year!
In other words, she was reborn in Chu Liuyue a year later!
With her current status and strength, she really needs to plan for revenge...
Suddenly, her expression changed, and she quickly looked back to the bed:
"Who!?"
Inside the room, there is dead silence! The air is almost stagnant!
For a moment, a pair of ice blue eyes appeared in the dark room!
Chu Liuyue was stunned, and then she could see that it was a huge white lion nestling in her bed!
"Xuexue?"
