Chapter 15 There is a mystery in the backwater
"Grandma...... Mother...... I ......" Cheng Molin, who was not afraid of heaven and earth, saw that Mrs. Cheng and her mother were still a little worried, and while snorting in her mouth, she hurriedly slapped the dirt on her body, and at the same time nervously pinned the messy hair on her sideburns behind her ears.
"Grandma, and sister, you came just in time, look at Mo Lin, I just said a few words to her, and she started yelling at me, there is no beautiful upbringing that my sister taught her, it's really ......" The third aunt Tai Peng took the opportunity to say a few more words.
The second wife, Man Zhen, drooped her face and was silent for a while, while Mrs. Cheng asked Mo Lin: "Why did you make such a fuss?"
Cheng Molin lowered her head, "I'...... I...... Mengshu and I went on an outing and accidentally fell, so we fell like this. โ
"Why are you so worried, kid!" Manzhen whispered in distress and annoyance when she heard Mo Lin say this.
"Yo, did you really fall by yourself? Isn't it for some other reason?" the third aunt Tai Peng was still laughing.
"Then what do you think of me?" Cheng Molin felt uncomfortable when she heard the giggles of her third aunt Tai Peng as if she was like a hen to be slaughtered.
"Oh, I don't know the specifics, but I heard from people outside today-" The third aunt Tai Peng's eyes rolled, and she stopped talking.
"What did the people outside say?" Old Lady Cheng held Man Zhen's hand and walked tremblingly to the Taishi chair and sat down.
"Mother, I didn't want to chew the root of my tongue, but if you let me say it, I'll just say ......it," the third aunt Tai Peng had schadenfreude clearly written on her face.
"Say it quickly!" Mrs. Cheng raised her voice.
"I've heard from people outside that Miss San and Miss Gong went on an outing with a man today, and the two eldest girls sat on the back seat of a strange man's bicycle and swaggered through the city, what kind of body did they beโas for the mud on her body, uh, don't be ......left by rolling in the field with a man," Peng Wanru said with a sneer.
"Third mother, what are you talking about!You are my elder, don't you think it's too much!" Cheng Molin was so angry that her whole body trembled.
"Mo Lin!" Man Zhen shouted angrily and asked, "Is what your third mother said true?"
Cheng Molin's face turned red, she glared at the third aunt Tai Peng Wanru, and said, "I went on an outing with my classmates, but it's not as unbearable as you say." What kind of world is it now, is it possible that traveling with men is a flood beast? You are too feudal!"
The third aunt Taipeng snorted, and Nunu didn't answer. Man Zhen said angrily: "You are a young lady from a big family, our family sent you to study, but it is not for you to mess around with others outside-"
Mrs. Cheng also bowed her head and said: "Mo Lin, listen to your mother's words, our family is different from others, and we still have to pay attention to our behavior, lest a girl's family be chewed on the root of the tongue behind the back......"
Cheng Molin's eyes were red with grievance, and Gong Mengshu saw that Cheng Molin was said heavily, so she said to Mrs. Cheng: "Grandma, in fact, Mo Lin asked her classmates for advice, except for the behavior of sitting behind other people's bicycles is a little inappropriate, she has not done anything out of the ordinary." Mo Lin is young and ignorant, and if you want to blame me, I did it wrong, and I didn't remind the third lady in time. Rest assured, we'll take care of it laterโ"
"Well," Mrs. Cheng nodded and said, "Actually, with you and Mo Lin together, I am always relieved." Forget it this time, you know the mistake and don't make it again next time. โ
"Grandma and Mrs., please rest assured that we will follow the teachings and never make any mistakes. Gong Mengshu bowed his head and replied respectfully.
"Since the child knows that he is wrong, then so be it, let's all go and rest," Mrs. Cheng said and stood up and said to Man Zhen: "Don't be angry, girls are older, they always like to look outside, and it's okay to do something out of the ordinary once in a while." Don't take it to heart if you are a mother. But I see, you better find a good family for her as soon as possible, let her marry early, you are so worry-free. โ
"No, grandma, I don't want to get married so early!" Cheng Molin hurriedly shouted, Gong Mengshu pulled her sleeve next to her, she looked at Gong Mengshu, and finally closed her mouth knowingly.
Man Zhen hugged Mrs. Cheng, and while responding respectfully, she walked to Mo Lin's side and glared at her. Cheng Molin pouted, but she didn't dare to talk back indiscriminately.
The third aunt, Tai Peng, didn't expect the show to end so quickly, and she was a little unsatisfied. Seeing that after the old lady and Man Zhen left, Cheng Molin and Gong Mengshu were also leaving, so they sneered and said, "It's still Miss Gong who is smart and knows how to advance and retreat." I also think it's better for Miss Three to get married early. As for Miss Gong, it's a pity that you have the appearance of the main house, but you are also a partial house!"
Cheng Molin said angrily: "Hey, little mom, what else do you want?" The third aunt Tai Peng Wanru replied: "I didn't say anything about you!"
Gong Mengshu said to Cheng Molin calmly: "Third Miss, let's go back to the room, don't quarrel anymore!"
When Cheng Molin saw the man, she said in a panic: "Big brother!" Cheng Ruitai frowned and said, "Are you naughty again?"
Cheng Molin didn't answer, Gong Mengshu lowered her eyes, leaned over and said, "Young Master, I'll send the third lady back to the room." Cheng Ruitai was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then let go of his body, watching Gong Mengshu drag Cheng Molin away in a hurry.
The third aunt, Tai Peng, saw that Cheng Ruitai was still looking at him in a trance, so she covered her mouth and smiled: "Young Master, you tell me the truth, you have been looking like this for some time, are you fascinated by someone?"
Cheng Ruitai suddenly came back to his senses, slightly flushed his handsome face, and said dryly: "Third mother, what are you talking about? I don't understand." โ
"Do you really don't understand, or do you really don't understand? Then I'll open up and say, do you also like this Gong girl?" The third aunt Tai Peng asked Cheng Ruitai with a slanted eye.
Cheng Ruitai glanced at Peng Wanru, but didn't answer but didn't walk away. Peng Wanru knew more in her heart, and said: "If you really like it, Sanniang will help you ask the old lady for someone!"
"She-isn't she the second brother's person?" Cheng Ruitai said with a light cough and hesitation.
"Even if she is your second brother's person, they are not married! It's just a girl in a partial room, and it's not something anyone can ask for if they want it! If you're interesting, I'll help you talk about it!" Peng Wanru volunteered. Cheng Ruitai is the son of the Cheng family, and now he is in charge of the Cheng family's account finances, and he will definitely inherit the ancestral business in the future. What's more, Cheng Chazhong is already a bad old man, and the burden of the deacon of the main family in the future will not fall on Cheng Ruitai's shoulders?
"......" Cheng Ruitai took his hands, still pondering, neither agreed to Peng Wanru's proposal, but also did not refuse.
