Greetings, Ninth Uncle - Chapter 28

[Chapter 28]

Cheng Yujin was sitting in the middle of the tree, drinking tea and looking at the new patterns this summer just sent by Xiu Zhuang.

After a while, a plump woman in a dark green short jacket came in and kept looking inside.

Cheng Yujin saw it and said, “Is it the third young master’s nanny? Come in.” The

nanny walked to the room with a smirk, and saluted Cheng Yujin: “The slave maid greets the eldest miss, the eldest Miss Jin An. The eldest lady looks so pretty today, the same If you wear gold-painted clothes on a white background, you will look better than others.”

Cheng Yujin was too lazy to pay attention to this kind of superficial flattery, she closed the booklet and glanced at the nanny: “What’s the matter?

” When I

wake up, I don’t want to get up, and the slaves come to ask the eldest wife for advice.”

It’s time, and he still refuses to get up.

Cheng Yujin smiled lightly, and asked, “Why doesn’t he want to get up?”

“The third young master saw yesterday that the prince of Cai Guogong’s mansion was leading a very imposing small dog, all dark and dark, with no stray hair. The young master likes it, I also want to raise one, I was thinking about it yesterday, and I still think about it today…”

Cheng Yujin laughed, it turned out that she wanted to raise a hound, and was threatening him here.

Cheng Yujin waved Du Ruo over, pointed at several patterns in the booklet, and said, “Tell Jinxiu Zhuang, that majestic red yarn is made of four horse-face skirts, lined with rouge silk, the top is made of white woven gold cloud brocade, and the sleeves of pipa. , stand the collar on the front, and tuck the waist by another inch. The neckline is embroidered with tangled branches and leaves, and the color matching is clearer.”

Cheng Yujin pointed out a few more patterns, each of which has a different emphasis. Du Ruo wrote them down one by one. Can not help embarrassing.

The nurse was left to the side, she tried to interject several times, but couldn’t find a chance.

Du Ruo memorized Cheng Yujin’s instructions, walked out with the album in hand, and glanced at the nanny when he went out.

The nanny was finally able to speak: “Big girl, where is the third young master…”

“It’s because of his embarrassment that he can’t get up for three days in the morning.” Cheng Yujin said, “If you don’t remember, don’t get up. Today’s father is here, if he is not afraid of being caught by his father. Swear, lie down on the bed as much as you can.”

The nanny had a bitter face when she heard it. If the princess of Qingfu was sitting here at the moment, she would have called out her sweetheart to coax Cheng Enbao to get up.

But it was Cheng Yujin, whose tone remained the same, and said lightly to let him continue to lie down.

The nurse is embarrassed: “But the third young master is very angry. If he is angry with himself, I am afraid that his wife will

blame me when he comes back.” “Mother also blames me, you just do it.” Cheng Yujin didn’t even bother to give alms out of the corner of his eyes, and said coldly , “Go back and tell him the original words, saying that mother went to take care of grandfather, and if he doesn’t get up again, I will go and invite him in person.”

Nuonuo, the nanny, went out in despair.

After a while, Du Ruo was hit hard by someone as soon as he came back from the outside.

Du Ruo held his waist in pain, and when he turned around, he saw that Cheng Enbao was wearing a gold-inlaid jade forehead belt on his head.

As soon as Cheng Enbao entered the door, he started to make a fuss.

Cheng Enbao was the middle-aged son of Qingfu County Lord. Qingfu was the only seedling. He was so favored on weekdays that no one in the back house dared to say a word about this golden bean.

Cheng Enbao relied on his father to ignore it, and his mother doted on him, and he caused many troubles on weekdays.

Today it is again, seeing that the young prince of Cai Guogong’s mansion has a hunting dog, he also wants it, and Sapo rolls around to ask for something.

Cheng Enbao made a big noise: “Mother, Zhai Qing has a dog, and I want it too!”

Seeing Cheng Enbao, the maids of Qingfu County hurried forward to coax, and Qingfu’s dowry maids screamed heartily: “Three young masters. Yo, you haven’t put on your coat yet, so be careful of catching a cold! Go and get the coat for the third young master!” The

maids coaxed, and Cheng Enbao became even more riotous.

He shouted for a long time, but he didn’t hear the coaxing voice of his familiar mother. As soon as he turned around, he saw the door of the cubicle, Cheng Yujin was standing coldly looking at him.

Cheng Yujin looked at Cheng Enbao’s troubles with a cold eye, and didn’t have the slightest intention to do anything.

Seeing that Cheng Enbao was quiet, she said lightly, “Is it over?”

Seeing that it was Cheng Yujin, Cheng Enbao’s confidence disappeared in half, and he reluctantly looked inside: “Where’s my mother?”

“Mother and father went to take care of grandfather. After calculating the time, it’s time to come back.” Cheng Yujin glanced at Cheng Enbao and said, “Mother hates cats and dogs the most. You should rest as soon as possible. If you are not afraid of letting your father see your current appearance, you can continue to make a fuss. Let go and let the third young master lie on the ground.”

Cheng Enbao was splashing and rolling on the ground, and the maids all knelt on the ground to support He was afraid that this ancestor would catch a cold.

Hearing Cheng Yujin’s words, the maids looked at each other in dismay, but their fear of Cheng Yujin prevailed and slowly let go.

Cheng Enbao couldn’t get up or down, so he couldn’t get off the stage immediately.

He choked his neck and shouted, “I want to raise a small dog. A-niang loves me the most. If you scold me, be careful when A-niang comes back and I’ll tell my mother!”

Cheng Yujin smiled lightly, not bothering to look at him, and turned inward. go.

When the maids and wives saw it, they hurriedly persuaded: “Third young master, the eldest miss is for your own good, get up quickly!”

Cheng Enbao was used to being followed, how could he bear this kind of anger, he immediately lay on the ground and rolled around, It kicked and kicked again: “I don’t care, I don’t care, Zhai Qing has a small dog, and I want it too!” The

maids looked embarrassed and hurried to stop Cheng Enbao, and Qing Fu’s dowry maid even more distressed tears came out: “Miss, since the young master likes it, if you talk to your wife, the wife might agree.”

Cheng Yujin stopped, turned around and glanced at the crowd slowly, the noisy room suddenly quieted down, and the maid knelt on the ground, not saying anything. People dare to speak.

Cheng Yujin retracted her eyes and looked at Cheng Enbao condescendingly: “Zhai Shizi keeps hounds, that is Cai Guogong’s business, and has nothing to do with our Yichun Houfu. You can either get up and change your clothes now, or continue to lie on the ground, no one will stop you.”

After Cheng Yujin finished speaking, she looked at the maids: “You all have nothing to do?” The

maids gave Cheng Enbao an embarrassed look, promised in a low voice, and slowly dispersed.

Cheng Enbao saw that no one was following him, and he couldn’t make trouble. The nurse took the opportunity to step forward and pick him up and go back to change his clothes.

Seeing Forsythia and the maid winking her eyes, Cheng Enbao is the only one who respects me and acts willfully, but Qingfu County Master is ignorantly pampering her.

However, the eldest girl doesn’t like his tricks. Look, isn’t this obedient?

Forsythia said, the bear children are used by adults, but if they are replaced by big girls, let’s see if they dare.

After entering the room, Cheng Yujin asked Du Ruo: “Are you alright?”

Du Ruo quickly shook his head: “It’s alright, the slaves often work, their skin is rough and fleshy, and their bodies are very strong. How old is the third young master, if you accidentally bump it, what can happen?

Seeing

Du Ruo’s actions, Cheng Yujin did not expose her, but instructed: “Go back in a while, take a bottle of ointment and rub it, and you should not do heavy work for the next two days.”

Du Ruo was moved and knew that it would be useless to talk too much. Only bowed his head and said gratefully, “Miss Xie.”

It was almost noon when the county master of Qingfu came back with an angry look. Not long after, Cheng Yuanxian also came back, and as soon as he entered the door, he scolded: “Eating inside and out, ungrateful! I’m useless! , but will stare at other people’s things. After ten years of work, he is still a sesame petty official, and he is still pretentious. He keeps saying that his family has no money to manage it, which delays his future. Look at how much you have!”

Cheng Yuanxian became more and more angry, he went to ask for something from Old Marquis Cheng today, but was heard by the second room and stabbed.

Cheng Yuanxian was still very angry when he thought about it now, and couldn’t help cursing: “I can’t bear to see them for a long time, looking at their usual demeanor, they are always drooping, pitiful, and they look like they have been let down. It’s like I owe them something! In the beginning, I didn’t want to adopt it, so I don’t want to adopt it. Now who can I show the aggrieved face? I bah, who do you think it’s rare!” The

maid didn’t dare to let out the air after hearing it, and they all bowed their heads as if they couldn’t hear.

Qingfu County Master heard the frown, gently pulled Cheng Yuanxian’s sleeve, and winked at him: “Master, calm down, sit down and have a cup of tea first.”

“What tea!” Cheng Yuanxian impatiently asked Qingfu County Master threw away his hand and shouted, “Second Household is not righteous, so no one will tell you? Longsheng, dragon and mouse, Cheng Yuanhan’s heart is a traitor, and their roots are black, and their family is not a good thing.”

After Cheng Yuanxian finished speaking, there was no sound in the room for a long time.

Cheng Yuanxian was feeling strange when he suddenly heard a soft knock on the door.

Cheng Yuanxian turned back and saw Cheng Yujin standing at the door of Shaojian, smiling and saying hello to Cheng Yuanxian: “Father, mother, you are back.”

Cheng Yuanxian turned around and saw a girl like a painting standing at the door, and then he slowly reacted, Cheng Yujin is still there, and she is also Cheng Yuanhan’s child.

He scolded the second room just now, completely in front of Cheng Yujin.

Cheng Yuanxian was a little embarrassed, but Cheng Yujin smiled the same, as if he didn’t hear it at all.

Cheng Yuanxian couldn’t get over his face, and hurriedly sent Cheng Yujin: “It’s none of your business here, you go back first.”

“Yes.” Cheng Yujin salutes Cheng Yuanxian and the Lord of Qingfu County, “My daughter retire.”

After returning to Jinning Courtyard , Forsythia was angry but complained: “Master is really, he is arguing with his brother, what is he doing to implicate our girl? The wife is also, knowing that the girl is inside, she still doesn’t say anything and just listens to herself.”

Cheng Yujin glanced back faintly. At a glance, Forsythia didn’t dare to say any more.

Cheng Yujin retracted her gaze and asked, “Have the food box been delivered?”

Du Ruo replied, “It was delivered just now, and the maid was watching in person.”

Cheng Yujin nodded, she sat on the chair, and sipped her tea lightly: “Then Just

wait.”

In the Fuli Courtyard, everyone had been gone for a long time, but Old Marquis Cheng still felt a pain in his head.

Just now, Cheng Yuanxian came over to shout that Old Marquis Cheng was partial. After a while, the couple in the second room heard the movement and ran over too.

They were all afraid that the other party would get the benefits first, and they ended up being blocked in the room together, making a fuss.

One of the two daughters-in-law claimed to be a hero, saying that she was in charge of the Hou Mansion for so many years, and the other cried out that she couldn’t even protect her own daughter.

In short, they are not fuel-efficient lamps, and Mr. Cheng was so upset by their arguing.

He was not in good health originally, and after being quarreled by his sons and daughters-in-law for a while, his eyes turned black.

In the end, Lord Cheng was really out of energy and fell asleep. Only then did Cheng Yuanxian and Cheng Yuanhan agree to calm down, and each went back angrily.

The maid gave Old Marquis Cheng the medicine and stayed in the house for an afternoon, until the night fell, and Old Marquis Cheng woke up leisurely.

When Old Marquis Cheng woke up, he opened his eyes and looked at the empty room, and asked, “Where are the eldest and the second?”

The servant girl whispered, “The old man and the second went back first when they saw that the Marquis fell asleep.”

Old Marquis Cheng had a wry smile on his lips, and he went back, a good one.

He moved, struggling to get up from the quilt.

The maid hurriedly helped Mr. Cheng to sit down. Mr. Cheng was breathing heavily. He saw a three-tier food box on the table and asked, “What is this?”

“This is from the eldest girl. When the maidservant of the eldest girl came over, she saw that Lord Hou was still asleep and did not dare to wake him, so she put down the food box and left. Before the maid left, she specially left a message, saying that there was a medicated meal prepared by the eldest girl herself, under the box. There is a small stove that is always warm, and the Hou Ye can drink it when he wakes up.” The

maid said, and brought out a blue and white porcelain Gu from the top layer of the food box.

Lord Cheng felt more complicated after seeing it. His son was thinking about his legacy before he died, while his granddaughter, who never paid attention, was thinking about his illness.

Knowing that his digestion was not good, he made a medicated meal specially, and kept it warm with a small stove, so as not to drink cold soup and hurt his stomach.

Old Marquis Cheng sighed, staring at the delicate blue and white on the porcelain Gu, he couldn’t help being a little lost.

He didn’t know what to think, and asked, “How old is the eldest girl this year?”

“The two girls are the same age, fourteen this year.”

“You are fourteen years old, and it’s time to get married in a year.” Lying on the pillow, he sighed, “It’s time to talk about my husband’s family. If I can’t make an appointment for the 14th Five-Year Plan, it’s even harder to talk about marriage when I’m older. The two girls are already engaged, and they will be settled in the rest of their lives. Only the eldest girl will be The divorce has been delayed. Now the high-ranking partner is picky, and we don’t look down on the low-married family, and it’s really difficult to get married.”

After Mr. Cheng finished speaking, he also sighed with emotion. The man broke off the marriage and ended up in such an embarrassing situation.

Lord Cheng felt even more embarrassed when he remembered that she had embroidered the prince’s birthday speeches.

Old Marquis Cheng sighed deeply. He glanced at the delicate blue-and-white porcelain again, and his heart gradually became biased.

“Come here, open the secret compartment.” Everyone in the

Cheng family rushed to the Fuliyuan when they heard the news.

When Cheng Yujin came over, Mrs. Cheng, Princess Qingfu and others were already there.

She saluted Qingfu, then walked to Mrs. Cheng’s side and helped Mrs. Cheng to sit down: “Grandmother, why did you suddenly call everyone over at night?”

Mrs. Cheng said with a heavy face, “You Grandfather said to divide the family property.”

Cheng Yujin’s brows moved slightly.

At this time, an old servant came out, bowed to the crowd, and said, “Old madam, uncle, madam, please come in.”
