Greetings, Ninth Uncle - Chapter 23

[Chapter 23 Identity]

The eunuch in front of the emperor, in front of everyone in Yichun Houfu, greatly appreciated Cheng Yujin, and even sent the emperor’s reward.

Because the reward was given to Cheng Yujin, Cheng Yujin knelt at the front, and the rest of the Cheng family were surrounded by Wu Yangyang on both sides, and even the white-haired Old Marquis Cheng and Mrs. Cheng also knelt behind her.

Cheng Yujin kowtowed and thanked, and took over the brocade box representing the emperor’s grace.

The rest of the people saw this scene and had their own emotions.

Among them, Cheng Yuanxian had the most complicated mood. As an old man, he did not receive the reward from the palace, but Cheng Yujin was ahead.

Old Marquis Cheng was very pleased, and there were faint tears in his eyes.

He didn’t miss the glance that the eunuch in yellow gave Cheng Yuanjing before he went out.

This eunuch was an old man by the emperor’s side, and he had to give him three points of face when he saw Chaozhong Pavilion.

Old Marquis Cheng knew that the emperor was so happy that he asked his most trusted father-in-law to give rewards to the Cheng family, not because of the screen, but because of the words on the screen.

Cheng Yujin’s double-sided embroidery is indeed excellent and vivid, but the emperor sits on the four seas, and I don’t know how many exquisite embroidery I have seen.

If it weren’t for the person who wrote, the embroidered screen, no matter how delicate it was, would only make the emperor take a second look, far from being awarded a prize.

But the emperor saw it, and he even sent a reward to the Cheng family in the name of Cheng Yujin, which means that the emperor recognized the credit of the Cheng family.

Directly rewarding the Yichun Houfu will alert the cabinet. After all, let alone others, even Lord Cheng himself, can’t think of any reward for the men of the Cheng family… But if it is replaced by female dependents, it will be different. He is a busy person, and who has time to care about a boudoir girl, I’m afraid they don’t even bother to listen.

This matter is really the right time and place, and all the opportunities are piled up at this point, so that Cheng Yujin can get ready-made cheap.

This is good for everyone. As soon as the emperor opened his mouth, no one dared to talk about Cheng Yujin’s divorce.

Cheng Yujin was also very satisfied. She didn’t think of the complicated reasons behind it, but only thought that her embroidery had caught the eyes of those in power.

Four pieces of brocade and eight pieces of silk are not expensive, and Cheng Yujin can get it himself.

What is really valuable is the gold embroidery that the emperor rewarded, and the model of the holy mouth.

She once said that Cheng Yujin was too boring and got divorced, but now she slaps herself hard, and praises the big girl for being so good, she is really a model of a lady.

After all, the emperor has spoken in person, why do they dare to confront the emperor?

Forsythia endured all the way and returned to the house, finally able to laugh properly: “Miss, it’s so happy. You didn’t see the faces of the second wife and the old lady, they were all dead, but they still pretended to laugh. , the corners of her mouth are twitching. It really made me laugh!”

Du Ruo also smiled, she pushed the forsythia, and said lightly: “Hurry up, it’s too arrogant, be careful to cause trouble for the girl.”

“I know.” Forsythia understands the importance, she will never say such words outside the house.

But Forsythia was so happy, she squeezed her eyes and said excitedly: “Girl, the Huo family and the second girl just got engaged a few days ago. If you let the people of Hof know about today’s events, will you regret it?”

Cheng Yujin He raised his eyebrows and glared at Forsythia: “Still laughing? Why don’t you hurry up and put away the imperial gift.”

Forsythia responded crisply, a few pieces of silk cloth were easy to say, Forsythia was holding the brocade with the gold embroidery on it. box, and asked: “Girl, where do you put this?”

“Put it on the table opposite the door, yes, put away the vases, calligraphy, paintings and other things, and put this set of embroidery tools. Scrub every day in the future, be sure to let everyone enter the door. Everyone sees it.”

Forsythia and Du Ruo couldn’t help laughing, and said in unison, “Yes.”

Cheng Yujin also felt a sigh of turbidity in her heart, she had always felt that she was living in the clouds, and she was going to fall down all the time, until now, finally Some solidity.

Jun Wu joking, with the emperor’s reward, who would dare to speak ill of her?

Why should she not be able to marry a good family?

Because of the award, the Cheng family had a strange atmosphere for several days.

The Jinning Courtyard is beaming with joy, and everyone walks with a smile, while the other courtyards really can’t seem to laugh.

Cheng Yuanxian seemed to have suddenly discovered that he still had a daughter, and said to Qingfu, “You are too negligent with Sister Jin. Although she is not your own, but since she is adopted by me, she is exactly the same as my own daughter. As a mother, if you don’t take good care of your daughter, why do you push other people around?”

County Master Qingfu scolded in his heart, why didn’t you say such a thing before?

She has to worry about the family and raise a woman for Cheng Yuanxian by herself. Now that she sees Cheng Yujin rising to the top, she thinks of doing things later.

But in front of Cheng Yuanxian, Qingfu managed to restrain his temper and said in a good voice: “I was too busy and neglected her. But although I don’t see her often, I have a lot of heart in being a mother. The same is not the top?”

Cheng Yuanxian was wrong after all, so he just said: “Okay, you are in charge of the inner courtyard, even if I am a father, it is not easy to intervene. You know that it is enough to treat Sister Jin kindly.”

So Cheng Yujin found out that her own Clothes, food, housing, and transportation suddenly became more refined, and the mama next to Qingfu came to talk to her more frequently.

Cheng Yujin smiled, her heart like a mirror.

She is not stupid, who is really good to her, and who is for the benefit, when she can’t see it?

Her heart is only so small, she can let go of herself, at most a few sincere people, and she can’t let go of others.

However, not only Qingfu, but Mrs. Cheng also sent people to call her over every day, constantly whispering in her ear: “You are the daughter of the Cheng family, and your parents have worked so hard to raise you so much, teach you piano skills, calligraphy and painting, and give you brocade clothes and jade. Food. Without the Hou Mansion, you wouldn’t be where you are today. Now you are sensible, and it’s time for you to repay your parents and your family.”

Cheng Yujin was very tired, but she had to be patient, bow her head and say meekly: “What grandmother said is , I will remember the kindness of the family to me, the kindness of dripping water is reciprocated by springs, and my granddaughter understands this truth.”

Mrs. Cheng nodded in satisfaction, what more to say, when she suddenly heard chaotic footsteps.

Cheng Yujin and Mrs. Cheng both received their words, and a young servant rushed in in a panic and shouted from a distance, “Madam, Lord Hou suddenly fainted! Come and see!”

Mrs. Cheng was startled, she shook violently when she stood up, and Cheng Yujin and the maid quickly supported her.

Mrs. Cheng calmed down and said in a deep voice , “Go, follow me to see the Marquis.”

In the Fuli Courtyard, the condition of Mr. Cheng is not optimistic.

The slaves and masters stood in a room full of people, and the two couples in the second room stood on the ground, looking inside from time to time.

Mrs. Cheng sat on the armchair, the corners of her mouth were tightly pursed, and deep splayed lines appeared on both sides of her lips.

Cheng Yumo followed Ruan’s side, and several young masters from the Cheng family also came. At this moment, even the youngest Cheng Enbao knew something was wrong, and huddled in the arms of the wet nurse.

Cheng Yujin sat beside Mrs. Cheng and stared at the closed door.

Suddenly a voice came from inside, and everyone in the Cheng family stood up. The imperial doctor carried the medicine box on his back and walked out from the inside while talking to Cheng Yuanjing.

Cheng Yuanxian couldn’t help but stepped forward and asked, “Emperor doctor, how is my father?” The

doctor shook his head and said, “Master Hou has always been weak, and he caught a cold a few days ago. In the past few days, his emotions have been fluctuating violently, and he has suddenly become numb. Attacking

the heart, I’m sick.”

Cheng Yuanxian seemed to understand, he didn’t care about these esoteric terms, he only knew to ask: “Then can my father be cured?” The

imperial doctor slowly shook his head, looking at the expressions of the Cheng family , sighed and said, “Birth, old age, sickness and death are common occurrences, while the Marquis is still conscious, if you have anything to say, hurry up and say it.”

Mrs. Cheng swayed and had to lean on the table to stand firm.

She didn’t give up and asked, “Is there really nothing I can do? It’s just a cold, how can it be fatal?”

Seeing what Mrs. Cheng said, she couldn’t trust the doctor in front of her, and she had the idea of finding another high-level doctor. .

Cheng Yuanjing frowned, and stepped forward to intercept the Cheng family’s words: “Doctor Chen, Mrs. Hou’s grief is too much, and she can’t say anything for a while, please forgive me.”

“I understand.” The imperial physician Chen was very easy-going, and Cheng Yuanjing sent the imperial physician out.

The whole room just watched Cheng Yuanjing and the imperial physician go away while talking.

Cheng Yujin glanced at Cheng Yuanxian silently, thinking that he was a thirty-year-old person, and he couldn’t even handle this interpersonal relationship. The youngest brother, Jiu Shu, came forward to send the imperial doctor out.

Sometimes Cheng Yujin also wonders, with the IQ of the two couples in the Cheng family, how could she be born?

At this time, a weak voice came from inside, and an old voice shouted: “Jiulang…”

When Mrs. Cheng heard this, he was thinking about the outer room, and his face fell.

Mrs. Cheng supported the maid’s hand and walked slowly into the old Houye Cheng’s ward: “You still call Jiulang, don’t look at it. When it comes to the end, who will send you to the end.”

Lord Cheng opened his eyes with difficulty, and he Looking for the figure of Cheng Yuanjing in the crowd, but unfortunately, there is none.

His sick bed was filled with two sons and several grandsons: “Father, do you have anything else to explain?” What do you want

to explain?

Of course there is.

He put his eyes into the room again, and when Cheng Yujin saw it, he subconsciously felt that he was looking for Ninth Uncle.

After two unsuccessful searches, Old Marquis Cheng was extremely tired. He looked at the void. The teeth in Old Marquis Cheng’s lips had fallen out, and he was a little vague when he spoke: “I’m tired, I want to rest for a while. You all Let’s

go out.”

Cheng Yuanxian was dissatisfied: “Father?”

Cheng Laohou has not yet explained how to divide the family property.

However, Old Marquis Cheng closed his eyes and looked like he didn’t want to talk anymore.

Mrs. Cheng saw that there was nothing she could do. She thought to herself, people can live a day even if they return to the light and shine, and Mr. Cheng will have to endure for a while longer.

He doesn’t want to say it today, but he will come back tomorrow.

Mrs. Cheng said, “Okay, since Lord Marquis is tired, let him rest in peace. Come out.”

Cheng Yujin followed the crowd and retreated, taking care of the old Marquis Cheng and the doors and windows.

When closing the window, Cheng Yujin paid special attention.

After this tossing, Mrs. Cheng was also tired.

She waved her hand and let everyone disperse, and she let someone carry a small sedan chair and hurried back to lie down.

Cheng Yujin followed the flow of people out, walked for a while, and turned back abruptly after seeing that no one was paying attention.

Forsythia was taken aback: “Girl!”

“Shh!” Cheng Yujin motioned for Forsythia to be quiet, she quickly glanced at both sides, and said, “You hide here to watch the wind for me. Be smart and don’t get caught.”

Forsythia was so frightened that she couldn’t speak: “Girl, what about you?”

“I specially left a window, and I’ll turn in from here in a while. You stay outside and don’t let anyone see it.”

“Miss , what are you doing?”

Cheng Yujin glanced at her solemnly, and said, “Quiet, I have my own reasons. Be careful of Ninth Uncle’s servants, their eyes are pointed.”

Forsythia’s heart was pounding, She intuited that Cheng Yujin was going to do something very big, and even Jiu Ye had to guard against it!

Forsythia watched Cheng Yujin push down in front of a window, and the window silently opened a slit, Cheng Yujin turned in from the outside, and soon disappeared.

Forsythia couldn’t stop chanting Buddha in her heart. She didn’t dare to think about what Cheng Yujin would do when she sneaked into the seriously ill Old Marquis Cheng’s house, so she could only lower her head and say desperately: “Bless the Bodhisattva, the girl must not have any accident.”

Cheng Yujin jumped into Cheng Yujin silently. In the old Houye’s ward, she quickly ran to the mezzanine that she had been optimistic about for a long time, closed the wooden door, and quietly listened to the movement outside.

Slowly, footsteps were heard outside.

Cheng Yuanjing came in.

There was no sound and no eyes could see, but Cheng Yujin just knew it was him.

His footsteps were very regular, unhurried, and he stepped on the floor leisurely and firmly.

When Old Marquis Cheng heard the movement, he struggled to raise his head: “His Royal Highness.” In the

compartment, Cheng Yujin’s eyes suddenly widened.
