I'm reborn, only a fool would spoil you

Chapter 43 Aphrodisiac (Part )

The atmosphere at the pot throwing competition was warm and tense.

In this confrontation, Chen Peiting, the eldest son of the Prime Minister's family, and Fu Yuxuan's eldest brother Fu Jingxuan became the focus of everyone's attention.

Chen Peiting, the son of the Prime Minister, was dressed in a green shirt, standing tall in the center of the pitching pot field.

His expression was focused and calm, as if the whole world had stopped. He waved his arm lightly, and the bronze arrow streaked across the night sky like a meteor, falling precisely into the pot, making a clear and pleasant sound.

The audience cheered one after another.

However, Chen Peiting looked calm, neither arrogant nor impatient, as if everything was under control.

In between games of tossing pots, Chen Peiting glanced inadvertently at Fu Yuxuan in the crowd.

The girl was wearing a cherry pink dress, the hem of which swayed gently in the wind, like a peony in full bloom in spring. Her bright eyes were staring at him...

Chen Peiting couldn't help but feel an inexplicable emotion in his heart, and the corners of his mouth curled up... a smile.

At this time, Chen Daiyu returned to the scene of the tossing pot and happened to witness this scene.

She already had hostility towards Fu Yuzheng, so she also felt disgust towards her cousin Fu Yuxuan.

Chen Daiyu felt uncomfortable when she heard from her mother that her brother accidentally rescued Fu Yuxuan a month ago and hugged her tightly. Now that she saw her brother being so attentive to Fu Yuxuan, she felt even more uncomfortable.

At this time, Chen Peiting swung his arm again and the bronze arrow fell accurately into the pot again. This scene amazed everyone present, and they all praised that the eldest son of the Prime Minister's family was indeed worthy of his reputation.

However, Fu Jingxuan, who was playing against him, lost repeatedly in this pot-to-pot game.

Fu Jingxuan's face looked a little ugly. As a scholar, he thought highly of himself. But under Chen Peiting's fierce attacks, he was finally defeated and left in disgrace.

This gave Chen Daiyu an opportunity to mock him loudly, "Look at the eldest young master of the second branch of the Marquis of Jingyang's mansion. He is such a disgrace! He can't even play the game of pitching pots well. Is he too poor to hire a good martial arts master?"

"Yes, everyone knows that the second branch of the Marquis of Jingyang is poor and broke."

Fu Yuxuan's face changed slightly when she heard these words. However, she did not refute them, but just glanced at Chen Daiyu calmly, keeping a calm attitude. She knew that arguing at this time would only make the situation worse.

Fu Jingxuan couldn't stand such ridicule. He was a proud man, and felt insulted by Chen Daiyu's words. He glared at Chen Daiyu fiercely, with anger flashing in his eyes.

However, this glare did not make Chen Daiyu calm down, but instead made her speak more sharply:

"Fu Jingxuan, why are you staring at me? Am I wrong? Your second house is poor and chaotic!"

"Especially your sister Fu Yuyao, who came to us with a big belly and begged to be a concubine, but the Duke of Zhenguo Mansion rejected her and didn't want her. It's even more of a joke!"

Fu Jingxuan was completely enraged.

He was about to push her away, but was stopped by Fu Yuxuan. Fu Yuxuan looked at him with a firm light in her eyes: "Brother, don't bother with her."

Fu Yuxuan knew clearly that the second branch of their family could not afford to offend the daughter of the Prime Minister, so as not to bring about greater trouble.

At this time, Chen Peiting, the eldest son of the Prime Minister's family, heard the noise and came over, rebuking Chen Daiyu in a low voice: "Sister, how can you talk like that? Apologize to Miss Fu!"

However, his apology was only directed to Fu Yuxuan but not Fu Jingxuan, which undoubtedly showed his special feelings for Fu Yuxuan.

This made Chen Daiyu's eyes widen: "Brother, you have to understand that you are the eldest son of the Prime Minister of the dynasty. You can't just marry into the family with just any...cat or dog."

This is really too much.

Fu Jingxuan was so angry that he clenched his fists and really wanted to punch Chen Daiyu in the face.

Chen Peiting's expression also became more stern, and he was about to give his sister a good scolding...

But Fu Yuxuan finally couldn't help it. She stepped forward, looked directly at Chen Daiyu, and expressed her position calmly and firmly:

"Miss Chen, please don't go too far. I don't fancy your brother, nor do I want to marry into the Chen family. Please respect yourself."

After saying that, he took Fu Jingxuan's hand and left the pitching field without looking back.

Chen Daiyu's heart choked. She didn't expect Fu Yuxuan to refute her so firmly.

Chen Peiting fell into obsession with Fu Yuxuan, and his eyes always followed her figure.

Chen Daiyu looked at her brother's obsessed look, and she was so angry that she stepped on Chen Peiting hard, trying to wake him up. However, Chen Peiting just jumped twice in pain, but still couldn't take his eyes off Fu Yuxuan.

This made Chen Daiyu even angrier!

The Marquis of Jingyang's Mansion gave birth to a nest of vixens. One of them, Fu Yuyao, has already died. The other two, Fu Yuzheng and Fu Yuxuan, are waiting for her. None of them can escape and will all die under the toyourhood of men!

Chen Daiyu's eyes were filled with anger and malice.

However, what Chen Daiyu didn't know was that all of this was seen by Gao Ni and Fu Yuzheng.

Under the sycamore tree not far away, Gao Ni narrowed his eyes and said with a thoughtful smile: "Miss Chen Liu seems to be quite disdainful of your second uncle's family, and even deeply disgusted and hated them."

Fu Yuzheng: ...

Isn't this all thanks to him?

Chen Daiyu, that crazy little girl, couldn't get Gao Ni, so she transferred all her resentment to her, and then developed a deep hatred for the second wife's family.

But then again, Fu Yuzheng herself hated the second family and regarded them as bad people.

During lunch, a low rockery separated the seats for male and female guests.

The seats for male guests were set on the east side of the rockery, while those for female guests were set on the west side of the rockery.

I don’t know if it was a coincidence or intentional, but the women from Prime Minister Chen’s family and Marquis Jingyang’s family were actually arranged to sit at the same table.

"Oh, Miss Chen Liu and the two girls from the Fu family are sitting at the same table. It's going to be quite lively."

"That's not."

The noble ladies around were whispering, looking forward to the excitement.

What was unexpected was that after Fu Yuzheng took her seat, Chen Daiyu actually took the initiative to sit next to her and became her neighbor.

So what? Chen Daiyu, who was wearing an elegant purple dress, first glared at Fu Yuxuan fiercely, and then glared at Fu Yuzheng, looking like enemies meeting each other with jealous eyes.

Fu Yuzheng: ...

This Chen Daiyu's head is full of shit, right?

Chen Daiyu's foolish behavior, if something happens to Fu Yuzheng, wouldn't it be obvious that people would suspect that she is the mastermind behind it?

"What's wrong with you, kid? Do you think you can glare at the sister of the Fu family?" Upon seeing this, Mrs. Chen, the Prime Minister, quickly expressed her opinion and asked Chen Daiyu to apologize to Fu Yuzheng.

After all, Fu Yuzheng is Gao Ni's fiancée, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has specifically instructed him to win her over.

As for Fu Yuxuan from the second house, she was naturally ignored and was ignored after just a glance.

Chen Daiyu was stubborn and didn't want to give in and apologize. However, thinking about what was about to happen, she softened her attitude instantly, and a deliberate but sweet smile appeared on the corner of her mouth: "Sister Fu, I was ignorant before, and I'm sorry for offending you. Please forgive me."

Fu Yuzheng knew it very well and knew that the show was about to begin.

She smiled slightly and responded calmly: "Sister Chen, you are too polite. It's just a small matter, not worth taking to heart."

Sure enough, not long after...

Chen Daiyu suddenly lost her grip and spilled the fruit wine in front of her onto Fu Yuzheng's handkerchief.

She hurriedly apologized: "Sister Fu, I'm sorry, I will compensate you with a new one right away." She signaled with her eyes to the maid beside her to get a new handkerchief, which was smeared with a colorless and odorless aphrodisiac.

Fu Yuzheng pretended to be unaware, took the handkerchief and sniffed it gently.
