Cheng Run is an honest man, when buying a house, Cheng Ai is mostly picky, so it is a lot more expensive, and he also picked the street in Changganli, the commercial district near Taipingfang, five main houses and two rows of wings followed by the inverted seat room and the ear room, leaving a small door in and out, but there are three and a half doors, that is, by collecting some rent, the family is also worry-free.

Cheng Ai's heart is higher than the sky, but the silver money must be compared, in the past, when the Ling Mansion was still hanging in the house, she moved things from the treasury to her own house, and after arriving at the Weiguo Mansion, she felt that it was difficult to protect the day and night, and even moved by the way, at least the things in her own boudoir were tossed thoroughly, especially the clothes and head jewelry of the four seasons, which were comparable to the young lady of the princess's family.

After Cheng Ze's death, Mo Dai Xiao raised his young son at home, Cheng Run was still busy with the affairs of the crude medicine shop, basically not at home, Ling Chunniang was not in good spirits and was always bedridden, Cheng Shaomei also sighed for a long time and had no heart to work, only Xue and Cheng Ai were like no one.

Lian's heart couldn't get by, often sent people to send medicinal materials, saw that the family only invited an old couple to help, the servants went back to the house, Lian bought four more girls over, and the monthly money was counted in the Guogong Mansion.

Cheng Shaomei and his wife no longer have the heart to say goodbye to their daughter for a while, and ordinary people also taboo her brother's unlucky death, and there is no matchmaker to come to the door, Cheng Ai is already eighteen, how not to be in a hurry, wherever there is excitement, you have to show your face.

Yesterday, Xue came back from the street and told him about the Nanhua Birthday Lantern Conference, and Cheng Ai heard that everyone from the King of Law to the children of the noble officials and eunuchs were going to participate, so he moved his mind.

At the end of the day, she dressed up, took the key she had with her, opened the cash box, endured the pain and took out the half-hanging money, and instructed the girl Luyang to go to the shop on the street in front of her to find a random woman, give her the half-hanging money, and only let her go to the door to spread a word, saying that Mrs. Weiguo sent someone to pick it up.

The girls are all lively, knowing that Miss Biao is to go to see the lantern conference in the evening, she is naturally willing to run this leg, and she can't kill the tea, so she brought back a cleanly dressed woman, and she opened her throat in the yard, only saying that Mrs. Wei Guo asked her to pick up Miss Table, and the carriage couldn't pass on the street, so she asked the girl to move.

Ling Chunniang was not angry with the Lian family, the eldest son was still begging for a living in the shop of the public mansion, and he might have to rely on them in the future, and the window of the main house was not opened, so Cheng Shaomei went out and agreed.

Xue's family has nothing to do all day long, and he doesn't be a female celebrity, nor does he teach his daughter, at this time, you are lazy to sleep in the house, and when you heard the movement, you hurriedly walked out, and said with a smile: "Uncle sent someone to pick up my sister? ”

Cheng Aisu knew that the Xue family was not easy to mess with, but she didn't dare to stop her, she wore a hat, and said goodbye to her parents in a proper manner, and then took Lu Yang out of the yard.

Xue smiled and took a girl to stand on the door, and shouted to the main room: "Sakura, remember to take care of Miss Sun." ”

A servant woman in the head went to do the kitchen full-time, and Sakura was dedicated to serving Ling Chunniang, and after listening to the instructions of the eldest grandmother, she didn't dare not answer, "Ai-" sounded, and when she looked back, she saw that her wife's face was even darker.

Sakura couldn't help but think in her heart: Mrs. is also a hard-working person, and none of the children she raises are angry, she is the eldest young master, no more than a lump of elm, she has never seen cold and hot, and she is not as good as our brothers in the countryside......

Cheng Ai has her own calculations in her heart, and now she looks at her aunt's meaning, she feels very guilty about the Cheng family, she can't say good family affairs, she doesn't mind being a concubine, if she can marry King Lu, King Lu and others as concubines, she is a hundred times more glorious than the wives of the ordinary people, it is said that she is not a wife, what is wrong with having one more in these people's houses?

Reluctantly, he walked to the front of the street with Xue.

Xue exclaimed exaggeratedly: "Yo, what about the carriage that was promised?"

Cheng Ai had no choice but to tell the truth.

Xue glanced at her, took her hand affectionately and said: "If there is such a thing in the future, my sister will discuss with my sister-in-law earlier, and the three stinkers will also be Zhuge Liang, in fact, it is better to go to my aunt in the first half of the day, how good is it to enter the palace directly?"

During the last palace banquet, Ling Xiang clearly instructed relatives without grade not to be brought into the palace at will, Cheng Ai saw that she knew that she still said this, she was not very happy, but she didn't dare to reveal it, but she only said: "I'm afraid of disturbing my aunt, our family is away from Taipingfang, it's better to see if we can meet a noble person from which house to take us." ”

In fact, there are only two families in Taipingfang, the Lu Wangfu and the Lu Wangfu, the palace occupies a large area, and it is not enough for a palace to occupy half of the fang, Xue's knows the sister-in-law's thoughts, and does not poke it, and says happily, ready to rub Cheng Wei's private money next.

Fortunately, Cheng's house was close to Taipingfang, and it only took them half an hour to walk to the front of King Lu's Mansion.

There is a long distance between the gates of the two palaces, and there is also a lot of traffic in front of King Law's mansion.

Lu Yang was very puzzled when she found the palace, and reminded: "Miss, although Lord Lu is going to grab the lantern today, I heard that it is on Suzaku Street in front of the main gate of the palace, why don't we go there earlier to occupy a place?"

"Don't be noisy. Cheng Ai roared, and saw that there was a restaurant and tea shop at the corner of the street in front of King Lu's Mansion, so he proposed to sit down.

Xue Shi said in a loud voice: "It's not good for us to come to the door rashly, I think Princess Nalu and the county lord are going to travel, should they still recognize us?"

In this regard, Cheng Ai and the Xue family are on par, and they feel good when they hear it, so the two sisters-in-law chose a tea shop where they could clearly see the honor guard of the two mansions and sat down.

Cheng Ai asked for a pot of tea and ordered a plate of melon seeds.

Xue beckoned to the running hall who was about to leave, and said with a smile: "Add another milk skin little eight." ”

Cheng Ai immediately blackened his face to stop the runaway, and said to Xue: "Sister-in-law is not panicking?"

"As the saying goes, how big a head you are, how big a hat you wear. Xue lowered his voice, "How big does my sister have? What is the use of her school's frugality? The food at home is for people to eat? Anyway, sister-in-law, I didn't eat enough at noon." ”

Cheng Ai is a girl, she has many opportunities to go out with the Lian family to socialize, and she has a lot of meeting gifts, and she has plenty of money, thinking that she will be the princess in the future, she really doesn't fit in with such stinginess, so she waved her hand and let the hall go.

Xue's eyes were strange, he pursed his mouth, and scolded the girl: "What are you doing here?

Shuying was scared by her beating and scolding, and when she heard the order, she quickly pulled the green poplar and went to the street in front of them to stand together.

Lu Yang's eyes were sharp, and when he saw a bruise on her wrist, he sighed: "I originally thought that selling it to the Weiguo Mansion was better than ordinary people as a rough girl, who knows ......" (to be continued.) )
