Greetings, Ninth Uncle - Chapter 19

[Chapter 19 The Old Man]

Cheng Yuanjing was a little helpless to Cheng Yujin. He happened to bump into her when she broke off the marriage. He didn’t understand the entanglement between her and Huo Changyuan, and he was too lazy to understand.

But since she’s a stranger after retiring from the marriage, it’s a good thing that she can think about it and actively look for the next spring.

Cheng Yuanjing saw that Cheng Yujin had bad intentions towards that noodle boy when they met a few days ago. Cheng Yuanjing thought that the speed was quite fast. I heard that they were childhood sweethearts, cousins, and it was a good thing.

As for whether it is a good thing for Xu Zhixian, it is unknown.

Cheng Yuanjing thought that this was the end of the matter, who would have thought that he was in his own territory again and saw Cheng Yujin plotting against the young man he was optimistic about.

Cheng Yuanjing, as a man, felt a little complicated when he saw this kind of behavior.

Cheng Yujin stared at him with bright eyes, wishing to introduce herself by herself.

Cheng Yuanjing was helpless and could only come forward: “This is my niece, the president.”

He pointed to the two young people: “This is Lin Qingyuan, who was the first scholar in the nineteenth year of Jianwu. This is Zou Cheng, who was a scholar in the same year.” It

turned out to be the first scholar .

!

Cheng Yujin’s eyes lit up for a moment, but she quickly covered it up again, and greeted Lin Qingyuan and Zou Cheng with blessings: “It turned out to be the champion and Zou Jinshi, the little girl is disrespectful.”

Lin Qingyuan smiled and refused, Cheng Yuanjing looked at it, and said: ” Okay, let’s sit down and talk about it.”

Among them, Xu Zhixian was a relative of the Cheng family.

Lin Qingyuan, Zou Cheng and Cheng Yuanjing knew each other very well, and it was not rash to enter the other party’s house, and Huo Changyuan wanted to marry Cheng Yumo, so he followed suit.

With the elder Cheng Yuanjing there, Cheng Yujin’s presence here is not rude, everyone took their seats, Cheng Yujin quickly reviewed the situation, and then asked Du Ruo to bring an embroidered pier and sit beside Cheng Yuanjing.

From the beginning to the end, she did not glance at Huo Chang Yuan.

Huo Chang Yuan wanted to befriend Cheng Yuanjing for the sake of the Xue family.

Cheng Yuanjing is now short of manpower. It would be better to have one more military force. The two of them tacitly did not mention the relationship of the Xue family.

Fang Cai people didn’t think that there were only a few people left now, and Huo Chang Yuan obviously felt a little uncomfortable.

Of course, the real source of the discomfort should be Cheng Yujin, who was sitting beside Cheng Yuanjing not far away.

At first, Huo Chang Yuan thought that Cheng Yujin was coming towards him.

Huo Chang Yuan knew a little about Cheng Yujin. It might be accidental that others entered the place where the elders were entertaining guests, but Cheng Yujin would never.

He subconsciously felt that Cheng Yujin regretted it, and took the opportunity to approach him.

Huo Chang Yuan should have felt troublesome after leaving his relatives, but his heart was quietly filled with a little joy.

However, Cheng Yujin didn’t even glance at Huo Chang Yuan until he was seated.

Huo Chang Yuan thought, she is a good way to play hard to catch.

He looked at the suffocation that the two of them couldn’t tell in the first part. Isn’t she coming at him, why does she stick to Cheng Yuanjing everywhere?

How long has it been since Cheng Yuanjing came back, when did Cheng Yujin become so familiar with Cheng Yuanjing?

Lin Qingyuan was very curious about the woman who could freely enter and exit Cheng Yuanjing’s study. He asked, “What is Miss Cheng doing in the study?”

Cheng Yujin smiled and said, “Ninth uncle taught me to read, but I can’t even write a single word. So I came here to ask Uncle Ninth. I didn’t expect Uncle Ninth to have guests. I’m sorry to disturb you all. I brought some cakes when I went out. If you don’t mind, please allow me to apologize.”

Cheng Yuanjing smiled lightly All of a sudden, the pastries are ready, and I really came prepared.

Du Ruo brought out the plates of cakes that Cheng Yujin brought.

There are not many pastries, there are only three pieces per plate, but they are exquisite in appearance and excellent in taste.

Lin Qingyuan tasted

a piece and praised: “It’s delicious. Which store’s pastry is this? I’ve never tasted

it.”

The eldest miss is the eldest daughter of the Hou family, and she has a respectable background, but she can actually cook?”

Cheng Yujin showed a little embarrassment: “I don’t dare to be, my grandmother has bad teeth and likes to eat soft cakes, I slowly figured it out.”

Lin Qingyuan was amazed and praised Cheng Yujin.

When Xu Zhixian heard it, he felt proud of him for some unknown reason, and said, “Not only that, Sister Jin is not only good at cooking, filial, but also proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and has a good hand. My eldest sister saw Sister Jin’s embroidery pattern. I am full of praise.”

Xu Zhixian’s eldest sister is Concubine Shu, Cheng Yujin secretly praised Xu Zhixian for really being able to answer, but still said modestly: “I have nothing to do to pass the time, how can there be a cousin? It’s good to say it. There are pillars of the court here, cousin, don’t give me face and make the champion and others laugh.”

Cheng Yujin and Xu Zhixian joked naturally, and it could be heard that they had a good relationship.

Huo Chang Yuan heard that he was in a complicated mood, so he could only quickly lower his head and drink tea, hiding the expression on his face.

While drinking tea, Huo Chang Yuan caught a glimpse of Xu Zhixian’s pastry being lotus cake, and the tea was scented tea.

At the banquet, Xu Zhixian said that he likes light cakes, but tea likes sweet, and he was teased by everyone for his son’s illness.

Unexpectedly, here I see who is used to Xu Zhixian’s son’s disease.

The refreshments are served by Cheng Yujin’s maid, and it is self-evident whose hand these came from.

Cheng Yuanjing’s insight was very good. He quickly noticed that Huo Chang Yuan was a little lost. He followed Huo Chang Yuan’s line of sight and found that the refreshments on Xu Zhixian’s table were different from theirs.

Cheng Yuanjing understood for a moment, if Cheng Yujin really wanted to be nice to a person, it would be all-pervasive spring breeze and rain, like a fine net, which would make people sink into the mud before they knew it.

Xu Zhixian didn’t shy away from seeing that he was intimate with Cheng Yumo, but Cheng Yuanjing could see that as a man, a man who really cared about a person would never show an ugly appearance in front of her.

Thinking of this, Cheng Yuanjing suddenly realized that the cakes in his hand were different. The cakes were shaped like leaves and tasted cool and refreshing, with a faint taste of bitter tea.

Yo, blatant bribery?

Because of his childhood, Cheng Yuanjing never touched food that had not been tested for poison when he was outside.

He just took two pieces naturally. Did Cheng Yujin’s custom-made dim sum really appeal to him, or did he let go of his vigilance against Cheng Yujin?

Cheng Yuanjing seemed to be aware of Cheng Yujin’s existence for the first time. In the past, he always thought that he was a junior, and because he was young, he had no gender.

She was divorced by her fiancé, she was angry, and did some very exciting things.

The child is ignorant, so Cheng Yuanjing tolerated her, just like an adult tolerates a child and splashes on the ground.

Until this moment, Cheng Yuanjing realized that Cheng Yujin was fourteen years old, and she was a young and beautiful girl who could attract two men to secretly target her.

Cheng Yuanjing was silent, not knowing what he was thinking.

Cheng Yujin had already inquired about Lin Qingyuan and Zou Cheng’s net worth during this period of time.

Zou Cheng is a child of a poor family. Since he was a child, his mother and sister worked hard to spin thread for him to study. Zou Cheng is also very good.

Cheng Yujin was very moved by the mutual sacrifices of the Zou family members before, but that’s all, she didn’t want to be the wife of a noble son of a poor family.

And Lin Qingyuan’s family background is much better.

Cheng Yujin was thinking about it while listening to them. Lin Qingyuan’s ancestral home was in Jinan, and his family was a famous local family. He passed down poetry and books and read for generations. However, there was no one in the court of Changguo. A pair of equals.

Lin Qingyuan is the eldest grandson of the eldest house, and his ancestral property will be left to him in the future, while Xu Zhixian is the second son. The family property of the government has nothing to do with Lin Qingyuan.

Third, Lin Qingyuan is the champion, and has now entered the Hanlin as an editor and has a promising future, while Xu Zhixian is still in vain, so let’s not talk about it.

In terms of personal future, Lin Qingyuan was completely crushed.

However, Xu Zhixian has a gentle temperament, and she is cousins and sisters, and will be very easy to handle in the future, but Lin Qingyuan may not.

Cheng Yujin integrated family background, property, future, and personality, plus and minus, and found that Lin Qingyuan’s score was higher.

Very good, Cheng Yujin’s future husband has changed.

After Cheng Yujin decided, she began to care about Lin Qingyuan quietly.

Lin Qingyuan only felt that today’s conversation was particularly pleasant, and he couldn’t say why.

Lin Qingyuan didn’t notice it, but Huo Changyuan, a former client, and Cheng Yuanjing, who had a keen insight, felt it.

Huo Chang Yuan’s mood was extremely indescribable. He just thought that Cheng Yujin was for him, but now he understands that Cheng Yujin has long been interested in other people, and he and the Huo family have thought too much.

It is indeed Huo Chang Yuan’s wish to break off the marriage, but seeing this situation with his own eyes is still unpleasant, extremely unpleasant.

As if watching his fiancee Hong Xing out of the wall.

Cheng Yuanjing took another sip of tea and found that the refreshments prepared by Cheng Yujin really appealed to him, and he didn’t even show his preference in front of Cheng Yujin.

Cheng Yuanjing thought back carefully and thought that the only time they overlapped was at the dinner table of several family banquets.

Cheng Yuanjing, in the name of the ninth son of the Cheng family, is inappropriate if he doesn’t go. Only in this place has he revealed what food he eats and what food he doesn’t eat.

Unexpectedly, it was only a few short meals, or a feast for men and women, and she was actually observed.

If she really wants to be nice to a person, she will definitely make the other person have no resistance.

Just like boiling a frog in warm water, the other party is getting more and more addicted, but the person who boils the water sees a better option and retreats when he says retreat.

She scolded Huo Chang Yuan for being ruthless and ruthless. In fact, she was the most heartless person.

Cheng Yuanjing was suddenly a little irritable, and this irritability startled him.

He thought, after all, Lin Qingyuan is the young backup he is optimistic about, and when he returns to his position in the future, some of it will be used somewhere.

Let Cheng Yujin continue to play, Lin Qingyuan and Huo Changyuan will inevitably have a rift, and it will be bad if they turn against each other.

So Cheng Yuanjing said lightly: “Cheng Yujin.”

Cheng Yujin was stunned for a moment, and then answered subconsciously: “Ninth uncle?”

“Which word did you spell wrong?”

“Ah?” Cheng Yujin reacted for a while before thinking of Mingming who appeared here. The reason is the question.

The others stopped talking and looked at them curiously when they saw this scene.

Cheng Yuanjing stood up and said, “Come with me.”

Cheng Yujin was reluctant, but Cheng Yuanjing was very powerful, so Cheng Yujin still followed Cheng Yuanjing obediently.

Others were amazed when they saw this scene. Lin Qingyuan and Cheng Yuanjing were the most familiar, and said to others with a smile: “Jing Xing doesn’t like others to be near, especially when others touch his things. I didn’t expect that at home, he would be easy-going with his niece and casual in his study. In and

out.”

Zou Cheng nodded in agreement, he was not happy when other people touched Cheng Yuanjing’s things, but his niece could just sit and wait for him in his study.

Sure enough, everyone has double standards, even Cheng Yuanjing is no exception.

Lin Qingyuan and Zou Cheng didn’t understand the inside story of the Cheng family, Xu Zhixian was heartless to follow along, and the only one who felt wrong was probably Huo Changyuan.

Is Cheng Yujin such an obedient person?

Will she stand in a place and wait for someone in person, and she will stand up obediently and follow after the other party says something casually?

If Cheng Yujin took it seriously, the two of them wouldn’t break off their marriage.

Huo Chang Yuan had an inexplicable suspicion, this pair of uncles and nephews didn’t seem right.
