Greetings, Ninth Uncle - Chapter 78

[Chapter 78 Selfishness]

Cheng Yuanjing was full of anger, and became more and more tense under the calm repression, but when he lowered his head and saw Cheng Yujin’s innocent eyes, he felt that he was full of anger and had nowhere to put it.

Cheng Yuanjing knew that she was pretending, that she was cunning and cunning and would play tricks, and she was best at confusing men, which included Cheng Yujin’s coquettish and well-behaved eyes at this time.

Even Cheng Yujin’s closeness and flattery these days have other plans.

Of course he knew.

But what can be done then?

What can he do with such delicate, beautiful and fearless eyes?

After Cheng Yuanjing came out of Mrs. Cheng’s courtyard, he immediately walked to Jinning Hospital, only to find that Cheng Yujin was not there.

He was very surprised, and finally calmed down and asked the attendant to inquire, only to know that Lin Qingyuan was here today.

Cheng Yuanjing stood outside, listening to Cheng Yujin turning the corner to inquire about Lin Qingyuan’s marriage, listening to her pretending to be pitiful and saying that it was not easy for her at Cheng’s house, and even, he heard Cheng Yujin say that she was going to be married by Mrs. Cheng, who was a widower .

Cheng Yuanjing was different from Lin Qingyuan. He only listened to it for a while, and then deduced that this person was Zhai Yanlin, the Duke of Cai, based on several conditions: the widower, having a son, and the Cheng family’s preference.

How Zhai Yanlin was smeared Cheng Yuanjing didn’t care at all, he only cared, the Zhai family was going to come to propose marriage recently?

Zhai Yanlin didn’t hear his original warning, Cheng Yuanjing had prepared it long ago, but he was still angry when he heard this from Cheng Yujin’s mouth.

Why don’t you talk to him?

Why would you rather ask for help from a strange man who has only met a few times, instead of coming to him?

In Cheng Yujin’s heart, is he marginalized like this?

The Cai family, the Huo family, and even the Lin family are not a problem. No matter who they propose, they will not succeed.

However, Cheng Yuanjing was very concerned about Cheng Yujin’s attitude.

Cheng Yuanjing didn’t say a word outside, and the guards followed behind Cheng Yuanjing, afraid to let out the air.

Until Cheng Yuanjing heard Lin Qingyuan’s words, he couldn’t bear it any longer and pushed the door in.

He had originally made up his mind that he would not tolerate it this time, and he would have to take a good look at her, but now he looked down and saw Cheng Yujin’s eyes, beautiful in shape, clear black and white, innocent and flattering, Cheng Yuanjing couldn’t be ruthless.

He even thought that people’s pursuit of profit is an instinct, and Cheng Yujin didn’t know his plan. It seemed understandable that she was actively looking for a way out for herself.

Cheng Yuanjing himself felt helpless. He admitted that rewards and punishments were clear, calm and rational, but now he found a reason for Cheng Yujin.

Cheng Yuanjing was silent for a while, and there was nothing he could do about her.

Cheng Yuanjing’s eyes were helpless, and he hated that iron was not steel.

How could Cheng Yujin’s brain not work so well, he had to ignore him as a prince, and he was so full of energy to attract Lin Qingyuan.

No matter how good Lin Qingyuan’s future is, his blue sky is magnanimous, and he is no more than a civil servant, Zaifu, who is comparable to him?

Cheng Yuanjing had no way of understanding.

However, those who are superior cannot directly express their thoughts, let alone reveal their preferences. Most of the time, they rely on the following people to understand.

The courtiers who can get along well are all masters of trying to figure out what they want.

Cheng Yuanjing grew up under strict education as a prince, especially when he was young.

It’s not good for him to tell Cheng Yujin directly to change the target to him, but Cheng Yujin’s eyes are like rusty, and he can’t understand what he means for a long time.

Cheng Yuanjing was very helpless. Facing such a difficult existence that he was reluctant to fight and could not bear to be cold, Cheng Yuanjing had no choice but to target other men.

Why does Cheng Yujin always make him angry, isn’t it because these men outside are not decent, dangling in front of her all day long, interfering with Cheng Yujin’s judgment?

This matter is simple for His Royal Highness, the men who are an eyesore, just shovel them away.

Lin Qingyuan is the first on the blacklist.

Who is Cheng Yujin? She vaguely noticed that Cheng Yuanjing softened, and then he greeted Cheng Yuanjing like he didn’t want money. He had neither principle nor position. Ninth Uncle was right.

Lin Qingyuan clicked his tongue unbearably. He knew that today was the day when the married daughter of the Cheng family returned to her parents’ home. Cheng Yujin and Cheng Yuanjing still had things to do, and Lin Qingyuan couldn’t stand Miss Cheng’s thoughtlessness towards Cheng Yuanjing. With the appearance of touting, he took the book and hurriedly said goodbye.

Cheng Yujin glanced at the two books and glanced carefully at Cheng Yuanjing.

Cheng Yuanjing found that Cheng Yujin immediately retracted his gaze.

Cheng Yuanjing sent someone to fetch the two books of Lin Yuan’s poetry collection. Cheng Yujin was particularly afraid that Cheng Yuanjing would expose her shortcomings in public. Fortunately, Cheng Yuanjing seemed very generous and did not expose her in front of Lin Qingyuan.

However, as soon as Lin Qingyuan left, Cheng Yuanjing’s expression was no longer concealed, and it was obviously cold.

Cheng Yujin didn’t need to maintain her face in front of outsiders, she immediately knelt down and moved to Cheng Yuanjing, flatteringly tugged at Cheng Yuanjing’s sleeve: “Ninth Uncle, I was wrong.”

Cheng Yuanjing didn’t move, and didn’t even glance at her. : “My niece arranged everything well, what’s wrong?”

Cheng Yujin heard that she was more docile, pulled Cheng Yuanjing’s sleeves obediently, blinked her eyes and said, “It’s all my fault. I didn’t greet my ninth uncle right away. I waited for the whole night on New Year’s Eve, and I made up my mind to be the first to say happy new year to my ninth uncle, but I didn’t wait for anyone, and I didn’t wait for the first day of the new year. Today, the second sister and the others are back. , I didn’t want to see Huo Changyuan in the main courtyard, so I avoided going out for a walk, but I didn’t expect to miss the ninth uncle.”

Cheng Yuanjing was originally a strong outsider and a hard worker, although he had a cold face, he was actually reluctant to do anything to Cheng Yujin, and now I heard Cheng Yujin say that on New Year’s Eve As he waited for a night, his heart softened even more.

As for the truth of this remark, Cheng Yuanjing did not want to identify it.

It’s enough that these words just come out of her mouth.

Cheng Yuanjing’s mood improved, but there was still a cold expression on his face: “Then let me ask you, where did you go wrong?”

Cheng Yuanjing’s expression control skills were first-rate, but Cheng Yujin didn’t see that Cheng Yuanjing was no longer angry.

Seeing Cheng Yuanjing’s cold face, she thought that he was still calm, she recognized his mistake very seriously, and did not dare to add water: “I shouldn’t avoid the crowd to come to the flower hall, I shouldn’t miss the ninth uncle, I shouldn’t say that those two books are in me Here.”

Cheng Yujin looked at Cheng Yuanjing’s face and spoke, seeing that Cheng Yuanjing’s face was always cold, she could only bite the bullet and continue to admit her mistake, her voice getting lower and lower.

Cheng Yuanjing didn’t seem to let it go, and asked, “Just these?”

Cheng Yujin bit her lip secretly, is Cheng Yuanjing so ruthless, does she have to tell Lin Qingyuan’s idea in person?

Cheng Yujin gritted her teeth and said, “I shouldn’t stop talking to Lin Bianxiu in the flower hall. Lin Bianxiu is a foreigner. I should avoid him when I see a foreigner. I shouldn’t stay alone in order to inquire about the ninth uncle.”

Cheng Yuanjing I thought to myself that she really knew how to make up excuses and rhetoric. In this way, she was alone with Lin Qingyuan, or was it for him?

Seeing that Cheng Yuanjing didn’t express her position immediately, Cheng Yujin approached and held the hem of Cheng Yuanjing’s clothes and called softly, “Ninth Uncle.” The

voice was soft and sweet to the bone.

Cheng Yuanjing sighed and glanced at her with a straight face: “It’s not an example.”

“Well.” Cheng Yujin suddenly smiled, and a dazzling light burst out from her eyes.

Cheng Yuanjing lost his mind for a moment, and then heard Cheng Yujin laugh, and said crisply: “Ninth uncle, happy new year. In this new year, everything will go smoothly and everything you want will come true.”

Cheng Yuanjing returned to his senses and laughed: “You still remember.”

“Of course.” Cheng Yujin saw that Cheng Yuanjing had calmed down, and no longer maintained an upright sitting posture, but leaned forward on the tea table.

Cheng Yujin and Cheng Yuanjing were sitting on the same side, Cheng Yuanjing was still sitting upright, while Cheng Yujin supported the edge of the table with his arms, his posture was casual, his waist was slim, and he sighed in a decent manner: “Unfortunately, I am not the first to congratulate the ninth uncle for the New Year, in the future, I will It

must be the first.”

Cheng Yuanjing looked at Cheng Yujin and smiled, he has always been upright and bright, although every detail is very beautiful, but he is as unpopular as a fairy, now he looks at her and smiles, in his eyes With the deepness that Cheng Yujin couldn’t understand, there was finally some fireworks in the world.

Cheng Yujin couldn’t understand the meaning of Cheng Yuanjing’s eyes, and even his words seemed to be meaningful: “There will be more opportunities in the future, you can always achieve it.

” It’s a New Year’s Eve, it’s definitely not good if the distance is far, but if it’s the person next to you, the chances are more.

Cheng Yujin fell into Cheng Yuanjing’s pointed smile, instinctively felt a sense of danger, and her back straightened unconsciously.

Cheng Yuanjing heard the most comforting sentence this year, and was in a good mood. He couldn’t help reaching out and rubbing Cheng Yujin’s hair, and said, “Don’t make trouble, let’s finish the business first. What the hell is going on with what you just said?”

Cheng Yujin is still analyzing What did Cheng Yuanjing’s smile mean, but he bumped into the words “stop making trouble” head-on.

Cheng Yujin was stunned, and even Cheng Yuanjing reached out and messed up her hair without even bothering to pursue it: “Is it serious? Was what we said just a joke?”

Cheng Yujin was in a bad mood, she thought she had already combed the heart of His Royal Highness the Prince. Well, in the end, the prince actually said “don’t make trouble”?

Cheng Yuanjing turned slightly serious and asked, “What’s the matter with the re-marriage?”

Cheng Yujin was startled when she heard her expression, she sat up straight, and pursed her lips and said, “It’s nothing. You don’t need to worry about the trivial matters within the Cheng family.”

“It’s Zhai Yanlin .

?”

Cheng Yujin didn’t want to say it at first, but Cheng Yuanjing said the other party’s name in one mouth, Cheng Yujin opened his mouth, and finally sighed helplessly: “Yes.”

Cheng Yuanjing looked at Cheng Yujin’s expression, and after a long time he sighed softly, He put his hand on Cheng Yujin’s hair: “Since you still call me Ninth Uncle, I will naturally do my uncle’s duty to protect you. You are facing such a big crisis, would you rather talk to Lin Qingyuan than to me?

” That’s not what I meant.” Cheng Yujin quickly retorted, she met Cheng Yuanjing’s eyes, and finally sighed helplessly, “It’s just that this kind of thing is not beautiful, I still want to maintain a good image in the eyes of Jiu Shu, I really don’t want to use this kind of thing. I

‘m bothering you.”

“It’s okay.” Cheng Yuanjing took the opportunity to rub Cheng Yujin’s hair, and it really felt very good.

On the surface, he also said solemnly: “Since I know, I won’t ignore it. If you are in trouble, just say it.”

Cheng Yujin didn’t notice the little gestures on Cheng Yuanjing’s hands. She had a heavy burden as an idol since she was a child, and she couldn’t accept being touched like a child.

The gentleman Cheng Yuanjing was righteous. At this moment, when he said such upright words, Cheng Yujin was moved in his heart and said, “It’s nothing. I was in the garden last time to discipline Zhai Xiaoshizi, and I happened to be seen by Cai Guogong. Jiu Shu was there at the time, I must know that. The situation at the time.”

Cheng Yuanjing nodded, and Cheng Yujin continued: “Later, when Mrs. Zhai came to gossip with her grandmother at Xiangji Temple, she happened to meet me and said that their family lacked a person to discipline the prince, and I was just right. I Before getting married, Mrs. Zhai wanted to marry me and go back to the successor. After that, I happened to meet Cai Guogong outside the garden. I didn’t want to get involved in the muddy water of the Zhai family, so I took the initiative to explain the matter to Cai Guogong. I thought it was clear. , Unexpectedly, Cai Guogong still expressed his intention to ask for marriage to his grandmother. Grandmother thinks it is very suitable, and when I hear the news from my mother, I go to persuade my grandmother, and my grandmother can no longer listen. ”

Because the person facing it was Cheng Yuanjing, Cheng Yujin did not hide her reluctance and the plans of the Cheng family.

Cheng Yuanjing narrowed his eyes calmly when he heard it. Cheng Yujin met Zhai Yanlin outside the garden of Xiangji Temple, and he didn’t know it at all.

It seems that he has to send more people to Cheng Yujin.

And Zhai Yanlin, it’s really hard to clean up.

Cheng Yujin finished her troubles in one go, and she really felt relieved.

She gritted her teeth and complained: “Cai Guogong is simply discredited, and he goes back on his word! At Xiangji Temple that day, I clearly explained the cause and effect to him. He didn’t ask for what I asked, and I couldn’t do what he asked for. Arrived, I had already agreed to get together and leave, but he was better, but he broke his promise and told my grandmother directly.”

Cheng Yujin was so angry that his teeth itch, Cheng Yuanjing heard the silence, and his fingers lingered on her temples, fiddling lightly. her broken hair.

“Yu Jin, not everything in the world makes sense.” Cheng Yuanjing looked at her with a hint in his eyes, “especially men. All men are selfish. When they see beautiful things, they only think about plundering, possessing, Occupy, even if you bring out hundreds of inappropriate truths, it will not be able to resist their selfishness.”

Cheng Yujin looked at him loosely, Cheng Yuanjing also looked at her, and suddenly smiled: “There are no exceptions.”

Men are selfish, without exception.

including him.

The only difference is that he has more power than Zhai Yanlin.
