Lantern Festival (1)

Chu Yiyao hugged Chu Yingzhu and kissed her a few times, "Why are you so cute." ”

Chu Yingzhu struggled twice in her arms and didn't forget to verify what a daughter-in-law was, until Qiao Cong'an came back, Chu Yingzhu still didn't understand what a daughter-in-law was, but his attention was quickly attracted by the pastries brought by his mother, the nurse carried him down to eat, Qiao Cong'an ordered the maid to take something up, "Mrs. Cheng sent someone to send it." ”

Chu Yiyao opened the box and was stunned, there was a pair of crystal clear jade bracelets in it, and there were no additional letters, only Qiao Cong'an said, "The person who sent it said that it was brought back by Young Master Cheng when he went to Luoyang, and Mrs. Cheng saw that it was in good condition, so she picked a pair and sent it to you." ”

"If you don't come early, if you don't come late, but at this time, what else do you say?" Chu Yiyao raised his head and asked Qiao Cong'an, who shook his head, although the Cheng family gave a New Year's gift last year, but this estrangement is true, and now on the first day of the new year, I sent a pair of bracelets to my sister-in-law, is this marriage going to continue.

"You are also twelve, and after the New Year, Young Master Cheng will also be fifteen, even if we are not in a hurry about your marriage, Young Master Cheng should also put it on the agenda." The only thing Qiao Cong'an could think of was the marriage contract between the two people, and in her understanding, Mrs. Cheng was not a person who 'sent it over if she thought it was good'.

"Then she won't have a crush on me." Chu Yiyao put the box over and told Qiao Cong'an about last night's incident, "I'm afraid that the news of this hero's saving the United States has reached Mrs. Cheng's ears." "Mrs. Cheng wants their Chu family to solve the matter by themselves, before Cheng Shaopeng officially said that she was married, how could she say that her fiancΓ©e's title had been hung for so many years, and now that someone has come to pry the corner, how can she be indifferent.

Chu Yiyao snorted, a pair of bracelets asked her to make her position clear, and she could choose the one she was satisfied with with her son without getting her hands dirty, how could there be such a cheap thing in the world.

"This, Miao Luo is too ignorant." In Qiao Cong'an's concept, being so bold three times and twice, he has already transcended the courtesy, righteousness and shame that a girl's family should have.

"Let Mrs. Cheng take care of the headache herself, if the second aunt likes it, then let her like it." As long as the second aunt has a way, as long as the cousin has the ability, she Chu Yiyao will never stop her, and she can't get in the door of the Cheng family, and it's not for her to call the shots.

"You don't go to your heart?" Qiao Cong'an poured tea for her, and was a little surprised to see her calmly.

"Brother Cheng and I are just brother and sister, and whoever he likes and wants to marry has nothing to do with me." Chu Yiyao picked up the teacup and drank it all in one gulp, when there were many choices, she also wanted to know how to choose this good person who was left and right.

"Miss, the Treasure Pavilion said that Miss Tang was sick, and she came back last night with a fever, and she hasn't retreated yet." As he was talking, the peacock hurried in to report...

Cheng Fu.

That is, not long after lunch, just sent off the two guests, Mrs. Cheng looked at her son with a calm face, half a sound, and slowly said, "What happened last night?" ”

"The young lady of the Chu family accidentally fell off the stool, Jilin helped her, and I carried her back to the carriage."

"That's a relative who lives in the Chu family, and the Chu family is an eldest lady!" Mrs. Cheng corrected his words in a deep voice, Cheng Shaopeng paused and continued, "Mother, if it were someone else, she would be carried back in such a situation, and a girl's house could not be frozen there on a cold day, let alone so many people." ”

"Then the junior of the Wang family doesn't hug it, why do you hug it, you also know so many people, do you know what so many people will say about you when they see it, how to say you!" Mrs. Cheng knows her son too well, and it is better to say that his son is a hero than a sad beauty, just like his father.

"Jilin can't hold her at all, and besides, everyone watched her fall by herself, what can you say." Cheng Shaopeng couldn't help but feel a little angry, "Could it be that seeing her stay in thin clothes is what a gentleman is for?" ”

"Which serious family will wear so thin clothes on New Year's Eve, which educated woman will not know this, you are dizzy, you know how to spread this outside, you still think it is good for a girl with such a reputation, why don't you let Li Xinglai come and come by yourself, you are never allowed to have any dealings with the Chu family in the future!" Mrs. Cheng slapped the table angrily, "You want to be angry with me!" ”

"Mother." Cheng Shaopeng shouted helplessly, "How can I not get along with the Chu family, this is my marriage with Yiyao." ”

"Your marriage is not counted, and you are not allowed to mention this again in the future, starting tomorrow, you will follow your father to the business house, why don't you understand your mother's hard work, the girl of the Chu family is not suitable for you." Mrs. Cheng put away the expression just now, and turned to persuade her bitterly, Cheng Shaopeng's face softened a lot, but she still insisted on the marriage, "This marriage was also decided by you and your father for me at the beginning, and now I don't know if I don't count, my son doesn't understand." ”

"You'll understand later, Peng'er, my mother is all for your good." Mrs. Cheng sighed, Cheng Shaopeng had heard this sentence too much since he was a child, so he broke off his contact with the Chu family for no reason, and he couldn't do it.

"Mother, it's too much for us to not be able to help such a big thing happened in the Chu family, and now we say that this marriage is not done, wouldn't it make it even more difficult for Yiyao to bear it." As soon as Cheng Shaopeng remembered the cute little girl who kept calling her brother by her side when she was a child, and then wanted her to bear the news that she had been talking about her marriage for so many years, Cheng Shaopeng's heart immediately became entangled in that pain.

"Is it difficult to let the Cheng family sell their property to help, what is it unbearable, I think that girl is doing well, and she can go to Datong with the boat, and she can help take care of the Chu family's shop, your worries are unnecessary." In Mrs. Cheng's eyes, if she is not worthy, she is not worthy, even if Chu Yiyao is good, she is not worthy of her son, not to mention that her behavior is not worthy of Mrs. Cheng's heart, "Okay, your father went out early in the morning, you can also go and see it now, the affairs of this business house will be handed over to you sooner or later, and you will learn it earlier, so as not to mess up when you get it." ”

Seeing her son go out, Mrs. Cheng's gaze turned sharply, "Come on, go and inquire about the young lady of the Chu family." ”…

In the Treasure Pavilion, Xiao Shi looked at his daughter who had a high fever on the bed, his face was full of distress, it was wrong to come back last night, and the maid who accompanied the night not long after lying down ran to say that the eldest lady had a fever, and she went out in such thin clothes and was frozen in such a high place, can you not get sick.

At the same time as Chu Miaoluo fell ill, Jinling had a new news for the New Year, both about her daughter and about her golden beetle son-in-law, but this version didn't seem to be very popular with any of them.

No matter how Xiao wanted to hide it, no matter how Mrs. Cheng wanted to block it, the news still flew everywhere like wings, and even the news that he came back with Chu Miaoluo and couldn't afford to be sick spread hot, and it couldn't be stopped from reaching Cheng Shaopeng's ears.

For Cheng Shaopeng, this is entirely because he is sick, if he didn't make it clear, this Miss Chu would not be frozen, how could she not be frozen when she wore two cloaks and hung a wishing card, fell down and provoked everyone to see, and then fell and fainted, and his reputation was not good, and he also had a great responsibility, no matter how Mrs. Cheng objected, he had to express his concern.

sent Li Xing to the Chu family to send a lot of medicinal materials, and by the way, he gave Chu Miaoluo a hairpin again.

Chu Miaoluo, who was recuperating from her illness, was naturally happy to receive this, and immediately replied to Cheng Shaopeng, and when Chu Yiyao knew, the two of them came and went, and they had already privately delivered two letters.

"Since my cousin has been sick, then there is no need to invite her to this lantern festival, Peacock, go to the torture house for me and invite the three cousins to the fifteenth lantern festival together." Chu Yiyao listened to the peacock's report, this letter exchange was really blatant, as if she didn't know.

"By the way, Pai Bao Chan went to the Treasure Pavilion and said that since my cousin is sick, Miao Fei and they will accompany her more, my sister is sick, and my sisters can't go out to play." Bao Chan has also expressed a lot of concern for her to go to the Treasure Pavilion these days, and it won't be long before Chu Miaolan should ask her to ask for help.

When the news reached the Treasure Pavilion, Chu Yiyao had already gone out to the torture house, Chu Miaoluo pretended to be sick these days and had a strong affection with Cheng Shaopeng, and pretended to be too much and forgot about the fifteenth Lantern Festival.

Chu Miaoluo couldn't help but have some internal injuries, and even more blame in it, "Why did Yiyao only say it now." ”

Chu Miaofei and Chu Miaolan glanced at each other, why can't they go when their sister is sick, Chu Miaolan was about to speak, Chu Miaoluo, who was half-lying, immediately stretched her brows, held Chu Miaolan's hand, and said sincerely, "I'm sorry for you, I want you to stay here with me, it's not that I won't let you go, let people find mistakes, our sisterhood is too cold." ”

Chu Miaolan was slightly stunned, then smiled, and touched her hand comfortingly, "It's okay, eldest sister, my mother said, your marriage is now the first class, and my second sister and I are not in a hurry." ”

A satisfied smile finally appeared on Chu Miaoluo's face, as if she had some chance of winning, she squeezed her hand and promised, "Don't worry, our three sisters will definitely marry well." ”…

The fifteenth lantern festival is the first big day of the new year, what is even more lively than the New Year is that the lanterns are lit in the market alleys, the market at night is like day, Chu Yiyao is also in a good mood, and she took Xing Zishu and them to walk around the market, walked a lot of shops, and came to the front of the Cheng family's shop.

"Yiyao, it seems too expensive here." Xing Zishu and the others had plenty of money when they were in Huizhou, but here, things are not cheap when they go into a shop, and they are a little discouraged when they see the people coming in and out of the Cheng family's shop.

"Don't worry, let's go in and take a look, there is a lot of rouge in this shop, Sister Zishu, you just need it." Chu Yiyao caught a glimpse of Mrs. Cheng and Cheng Shaopeng in the shop, and pulled them in.
