This made Ji Cheng very worried, thinking that when she and He Cheng said goodbye, Shen Che didn't say a word, she thought he was acquiescing, but he already knew that Wang Siniang would play tricks, just stood by and waited for her to jump into the pit.

"Well, you saw it all in the afternoon?" The apprehension in Ji Cheng's expression was far more obvious than in his heart.

Shen Che raised his eyebrows and poured Ji Cheng a cup of tea, "So you think I should drink wine and drown my sorrows for this matter?" ”

How can it be?! Ji Cheng said: "Don't you have anything to say?" ”

Shen Che lowered his eyelids and looked at the teacup, it seemed that Ji Cheng was not as attractive as a clay-fired teacup, "What do you want me to say?" ”

Ji Cheng also looked at the green glazed imitation Jun kiln teacup in Shen Che's hand and said, "I didn't ......"

Shen Che shook his head, "No need to explain, I believe you." With your ingenuity, how could you not know that you and my eldest brother are impossible. You won't waste your mind on him. ”

If the person concerned was not herself, Ji Cheng really wanted to give Shen Che a thumbs up, she did know, so she had already avoided Shen Yu as much as possible, if it weren't for the heart of a child who couldn't bear to hurt Brother Hong'er, she wouldn't have gone to Changheng Courtyard, the abnormal person was Shen Yucai, but unfortunately some people came too late.

Although Shen Che's words were a bit sarcastic, as long as there was no misunderstanding here, Ji Cheng just wanted to maintain the status quo at present, and it was not time to tear his face with Shen Che.

The day of Shen Qian's marriage was finally approaching, and even Shen Jing returned to Shen Mansion from Dongshan Academy a day earlier. Ji Cheng didn't follow the old lady to entertain guests, such a good day, the old lady couldn't help but take care of Ji Lan's face as the third daughter-in-law, so after Ji Lan was released, she had been helping the old lady take care of the guests who came from afar, and Ji Cheng naturally wanted to follow Ji Lan.

Ji Lan didn't feel embarrassed for Ji Cheng, but every time she introduced Ji Cheng to the guests, she just said that this is my mother's nephew's daughter, and there was no other word. The female relatives who have a little common sense understand in their hearts that Ji Lan clearly does not like Ji Cheng, and even her own aunt does not like it, so what else does Ji Cheng have to offer, besides, she is too beautiful to be born, which is always uneasy.

Ji Cheng always smiled back faintly when he met those curious and inquisitive eyes, and said a few words without humility or arrogance, and did not take Ji Lan's methods to heart, anyway, Ji Cheng had basically given up on the matter of saying goodbye to the master in Beijing.

On the night of Shen Qiancheng's first day, Shen Cui was finally released, and the old lady also sent a message to ask Ji Cheng to go back to accompany Shen Cui, after all, they were cousins, so Ji Cheng moved back to Ji Lan's small cross-courtyard, so she didn't have much luggage, and when she moved to the old lady, she also knew that it was not a long-term thing, so the big things were still left in the cross-courtyard.

As soon as Shen Cui returned to the house, he hugged his head with Ji Lan and the two mothers and daughters and cried, and after crying for a cup of tea, the two of them stopped and began to talk.

Ji Lan looked Shen Cui up and down, and saw that she was not only not thin, but her face was also rounder, and she knew that her life was okay, but she was not allowed to go out.

"Mother, I'm really suffocating, I'm not allowed to go anywhere in the house, I learn the rules every day and embroider the dowry." Shen Cui complained.

Ji Lan said: "It's for your own good to let you learn the rules, this time I see that you are getting more and more beneficial than before, I used to feel sorry for you and was reluctant to force you, but now in the hands of the old lady, it can be regarded as holding you as a monkey." ”

Shen Cui said: "Mother, have you seen Brother Qi recently?" ”

Ji Lan was not angry when she heard Qi Zheng's name, if it weren't for him, how could their mother and daughter come to this point, and now the three masters still refuse to enter Ji Lan's room, no matter how many means Ji Lan has used, how many good things she has sold, she has not been able to leave Shen Ying in the house for one night.

This couple quarrels at the end of the bed, but if there is no bed, how can they reconcile?

But next month, Shen Cui will marry Qi Zheng, and Ji Lan can't scold her son-in-law, but the first thing she cares about when she hates Shen Cui is released is Qi Zheng, it can be seen that she is really an outgoing girl, and if she marries out, she will be someone else's family.

"I didn't see him, did he treat you like that, and did he have the face to come to our house?" Ji Lan said angrily.

"Brother Qi didn't do anything to me?" How difficult Shen Cui's days of grounding were, all relied on the sweet support of recalling her and Qi Zheng, and now her mind is full of only remembering Qi Zheng's goodness, she is about to marry him, if she doesn't miss her husband's good, is it still bad? "Mother, how are my family preparations for next month, I can't be worse than my second sister."

Of course, the more ghosts in his heart, the more glamorous he must be on the surface, and Ji Lan didn't have much cash in his hands originally, so it was all spent on Shen Cui at this time.

The most important thing for a daughter's family to marry is the dowry, and Shen Cui is no exception. At night, when he was by Ji Lan's side, he was clamoring to see his dowry list.

The dowry is naturally a lot, large things such as beds, wardrobes, beauty couches and the like have been purchased since Shen Cui was a child, and when he encounters a suitable wood, he buys it and lets the carpenter start carving and chiseling, and it takes three or five years for a thing to sit down.

I heard that the bed that accompanied Shen He when he got married took eight years to complete. The bed was so heavy that the carriage could not pull it, and it took twenty or thirty people to carry it onto the boat.

But these are dead things, can only put on a show, a daughter-in-law in the in-law's house is doing well, the key is to look at the marriage shop and cash, especially the Qi family's family background, the most lacking is silver, but there is no shortage of ornaments.

"Why is it only three thousand taels, mother?" Shen Cui was a little dissatisfied.

Ji Lan sneered, "In order to prepare for the marriage for you, I spent all the money I could call, these days when I am away, your Aunt Fang's housekeeper, don't you put everything in her own pocket?" Your father can't control it now, you still hate this? Remember to be sweet, every granddaughter will marry the old lady to dowry. "Shen He got married, but he gave 20,000 taels of silver, even Shen Yun also had 15,000 taels, which was only a little less than Shen He.

Shen Cui pouted, she really didn't expect that the silver in Ji Lan's hand was already lacking like this, and she still boasted about Haikou in front of Qi Zheng, saying how could there be 100,000 taels of dowry silver.

"This silver is still given by the old lady, you must keep it yourself, your mother-in-law will be a bottomless pit in the future, and no amount of silver will be enough for her to burn. Yunyang Bofu is now declining like this, but the façade that should have it has to be supported, and the money is also like flowing water, if you don't have a calculation, sooner or later you will end up with ginseng that you can't even afford to eat. Don't cry dad and call mom when the time comes. "Gilandau. Although Shen Cui looks powerful on the surface, his mouth is not forgiving, and his temperament is also arrogant, but he is actually a fool, otherwise he would not have been deceived by Qi Zheng so easily, Ji Lan is really worried that Qi Zheng will coax Shen Cui around, then Shen Cui will suffer in the future.

Shen Cui said "oh oh" perfunctorily, left from Ji Lan, and went straight to Ji Cheng's house.

"Sister Cheng." Shen Cui exclaimed with a grin. She and Ji Cheng have no principled contradictions, and Shen Cui is sorry for Ji Cheng for pulling her into the water, with Shen Cui's temperament, she can naturally forget it, and at this time, she is coquettish with Ji Cheng without any guilt.

"Sister Cheng, what did you send to add makeup to Sister Qian?" Shen Cui asked Ji Cheng.

Ji Cheng said: "I saved some gems from the Western Regions and sent a few to Sister Qian, you came just in time, you can pick some of them, and the rest will have to be used by Ah Wei to add makeup in the future." ”

Shen Cui pursed her lips, she was not very interested in gemstones, she had more than a dozen sets of her own heads, and when Ji Lan had plenty of money, she didn't buy anything for Shen Cui.

"You can keep the gem for Sister Nettle." Shen Cui said.

How could Ji Cheng not see Shen Cui's thoughts, she and Shen Cui were also cousins, although there were unpleasantness, but Ji Cheng had learned a lot of lessons from Shen Che, anyway, infighting would definitely not work, "Then I don't have anything good for you, you know, the Ji family has nothing left but some copper-smelling silver, otherwise I will fold it into silver for you?" ”

Shen Cui pretended to think about it, and then said: "That's too, if something can be something that I don't have, you can give me silver, and if I see anything I like in the future, I will buy it myself, and you should add makeup to me." ”

It's not easy to send Shen Cui away? Ji Cheng smiled: "Okay, that's really saving me trouble." ”

In this way, Ji Cheng and Shen Cui were both happy, Ji Cheng spent five thousand taels of silver to buy a clean, Shen Cui also had to taste what she wanted, she was very happy that Ji Cheng was so good, and many of the words she thought about were useless, such as asking her mother to take Ji Cheng to socialize more and see if she could find a family affair or something like that.

Shen Cui had already heard what happened to Ji Cheng, and she didn't succeed twice when she said that she was married, she felt sorry for Ji Cheng on the one hand, but on the other hand, she was inexplicably happy. In short, seeing that Ji Cheng was inferior to himself in every way did make Shen Cui very comfortable.

In the evening, Shen Che knew that Ji Cheng had added five thousand taels of silver to Shen Cui's makeup, so he only smiled and said, "Your family is probably the least valuable silver." ”

Ji Cheng pouted, no matter how worthless it is, it was also earned with great effort, and it was accumulated like that.

At night, Shen Che held Ji Cheng in his arms, and his palm naturally fell on her lower abdomen, "Is your little day late this month?" ”

Ji Cheng had already slept in a daze, and when Shen Che mentioned this, he was suddenly shocked into a cold sweat. She was almost always on time every month, but every month she was two days earlier, and by this month it was indeed three or four days late.

"But I take pills every time." Ji Cheng sat up and looked at Shen Che, as if he was asking him for confirmation.

Shen Che said: "Those pills are all cold things, it is definitely not good for a woman's body to eat often, when I dispense pills to you, the amount is very light, and I also use tonic medicine, the effect is definitely there, but it can't be 100% eliminated." ”

When Ji Cheng heard this, she almost wanted to give Shen Che a few more slaps, but she was so frightened that her face turned pale, "But, if it's true, what should I do?" Ji Cheng was about to cry, she shouldn't have believed Shen Che.
