Chapter 4 Elder Brother

Banqin didn't know that he knocked on the door, and the two masters inside fought.

She and Cheng Jianniang had already stood in the door, but they were not allowed to enter the gatehouse.

The servants around them also looked at them strangely, refusing to say anything when asked, and looked like they were avoiding.

This made Banqin a little baffled.

"What's wrong with them?" She asked Cheng Jianniang in a nervous whisper, "Why do you see that our eyes are wrong?" ”

Cheng Jianniang looked at the yard.

"They misunderstood you." She said.

Banqin hummed, even more puzzled.

Just now, she excitedly told the porter that she was looking for Second Master Cheng, who came to recognize her relatives and came from the state.

"What's the misunderstanding?" She was puzzled, and after asking, she shook off her thoughts, since the lady said that she had misunderstood, it must have been a misunderstanding, so she was a little apprehensive, "What did they misunderstand?" Lady, why didn't you remind me. ”

Because my mouth couldn't keep up with my brain, Cheng Jianniang was silent and wanted to laugh, but before she could laugh, another thought came again.

She looked into the courtyard, where four or five servant women came over with gloomy expressions.

Banqin saw it and took it excitedly.

"Mothers, the second masterβ€”" she said.

Before he finished speaking, the two servants hurriedly gathered around.

"The second master is not at home, it's so late, the little lady will go and rest first, and let's talk about it tomorrow." They said, saying this, and they held up Banqin from left to right.

Banqin was taken aback.

"What are you doing?" She shouted, and as soon as she opened her mouth, a rag was stuck in her mouth.

Banqin was stunned.

"You misunderstood," she cried out whimpering.

Sure enough, the lady's words were always right.

"I'm the daughter of the second master." Cheng Jianniang said.

The two servant women who walked towards her looked stunned.

What the?

In this room, Second Mrs. Cheng lowered her head and wiped her tears, Second Master Cheng sorted out the clothes that were caught and messed up by himself, obviously he was not familiar with doing this kind of thing, but at this time, he couldn't ask the girls to come in to see the jokes.

"Let me go to the ancestral hall and be confined for half a month, and I am not allowed to go out!" Master Cheng scolded with a blushing face.

"In the end, he is still young, and he is in that position, it is inevitable to socialize, those women are just fun, we can't be annoyed by this." Mrs. Cheng stroked Mrs. Cheng's shoulders and whispered comfort.

One is white-faced and the other is red-faced, Second Mrs. Cheng knows that she can't make too much trouble, otherwise it will be a loss to take advantage of it.

She wiped her tears and replied.

"Okay, people won't mention it, just get it away, and this thing should not have happened." Mrs. Cheng breathed a sigh of relief and said, looking at Second Master Cheng again, "Erlang, you must not be so ridiculous in the future, don't think about yourself, but also think about Brother Xi." ”

Cheng Erye's face was also pale, ashamed and sulky.

Outside the door, two servants hurried in.

"Sir, ma'am." They saluted.

"Done?" Mrs. Cheng asked.

"Nope." The servant replied, glanced at Second Master Cheng, and looked hesitant.

"Don't listen to what she says, just plug your mouth and pull it away, don't you know how to do things after so long?" Mrs. Cheng raised her eyebrows and said.

The servant woman was a little flustered.

"Yes, yes," they said, and couldn't help but look at the second master again, "but, she said, she is the daughter of the second master." ”

As soon as these words came out, Second Mrs. Cheng, who had calmed down, suddenly got up again.

"Cheng Erlang, even a daughter was born! You deceive people too much! She shouted, and the second master rushed over.

This time, Mrs. Cheng reacted quickly and reached out to stop her, and she was stumbled and almost fell.

The servants rushed forward to help.

Suddenly there was chaos in the house again.

Banqin leaned next to Cheng Jianniang and looked at the vigilant servants around her.

"I guess there was no misunderstanding this time, right?" She asked Cheng Jianniang in a low voice.

"I am afraid that the messenger will not be able to speak clearly, or the obedient person will not be able to hear clearly." Cheng Jianniang said.

In this family, does anyone still remember that there is a daughter of the Cheng family in Bingzhou?

She looked into the courtyard, where the high shadow wall blocked her view, and she couldn't see what the mansion was like.

"Nope!" Second Master Cheng shouted indignantly and pushed Second Mrs. Cheng away.

Second Mrs. Cheng fell to the ground and pulled Mrs. Cheng to cry loudly.

Master Cheng turned around and pulled out the sword of Dong Qitang hanging on the wall.

The servants were startled and hurriedly knelt down to stop the old man.

Mrs. Cheng persuaded this and that, and she was so anxious that she was angry.

"I'll see who is doing me!" Cheng Erye was also angry, like rushing out.

"You dare to go and see it, and if you do, don't enter the house!" Master Cheng scolded in a trembling voice.

Cheng Erye didn't hear it, and rushed out.

"Big brother and sister-in-law, you see that he is in a hurry to admit it." Second Mrs. Cheng cried.

Mrs. Cheng stood up anxiously.

If you see this, you can't tell.

"Don't worry, with me, I will never let someone from outside enter our house, and he can't be anyone!" She said that she didn't care about appeasing Second Mrs. Cheng anymore, and she was busy chasing after her.

Cheng Erye soon came to the door, and saw two women standing under the lantern from a distance, surrounded by several servants, which was very conspicuous.

Is someone really coming to the door?

Cheng Erye's pace slowed down, he was ridiculous, but he didn't have the impression that there would be children outside? Is it negligence?

Since it was negligent, then it would be a matter of killing and denying it, presumably there is no basis here, otherwise it would not have been found until now.

Thinking of this, Cheng Erye's footsteps became powerful again, and he sank his face and came over violently.

"The master is here!" Banqin saw it at a glance and shouted in surprise.

Cheng Jianniang also saw it earlier.

This man in his thirties, with a thin figure and medium height, can be seen to have a fair complexion and a square face recently, which is neither good-looking nor ugly.

Behind him, Mrs. Cheng hurriedly followed.

"What are you..."Cheng Erye shouted in a deep voice.

Before the words fell, Banqin stepped forward happily.

"Master, I'm Banqin." She shouted, "I'm back with my eldest lady." ”

Cheng Erye paused.

Half celery?

Who is it?

"Lady, mother, this is your father, this is your father." Banqin pulled Cheng Jianniang and shouted, happy and sad, and couldn't help crying.

"Don't shout yet, who's who's the father!" Cheng Erye shouted.

"Where did you come from, woman? But did you recognize the wrong person? Mrs. Cheng also stepped forward and said in a deep voice.

Banqin couldn't speak when she cried, and she couldn't speak clearly, so Cheng Jianniang took a step forward and stretched out her hand to lift the power gourd.

"Father." She said, curtsied.

This woman is so good-looking, she is really familiar at first glance.

Second Master Cheng and Mrs. Cheng were stunned.

"Which one are you? How can you call someone's father indiscriminately? Second Master Cheng came back to his senses and shouted.

"Master, you forgot, you said you would go to the Taoist temple to pick us up." Banqin cried, "The Taoist temple was struck by thunder and fire, and my wife and I came back by ourselves." ”

There seemed to be a thunderclap in the night sky.

Second Master Cheng and Mrs. Cheng looked stunned.

It's really not calling my father! It's really his daughter!

Master Cheng was also stunned.

"That, idiot?" He asked, incredulously.

"Yes, sir, it's the eldest lady fostered by the Daoist Temple in Bingzhou who has returned." The servant woman said.

The sword in Master Cheng's hand was slowly put back on the table.

"It's her." He muttered, exhaled, thought of something again, and became nervous, "Are the people of the Zhou family here too?" ”

The servant woman didn't think of who the Zhou family was for a while, but Second Mrs. Cheng did.

The Zhou family, the maiden family of the wife of her husband's first wife, before she entered the door, she was humiliated by the people of the Zhou family as an elder.

Mrs. Cheng stopped crying, and slowly clenched the hand on her lap.

It's her daughter.

The eldest daughter of the second room of the Cheng family is back.

"What? The eldest daughter? ”

In the depths of the inner courtyard, Cheng Qiniang, who was lying down with her hair scattered, sat up suddenly.

"I have an extra sister?" She asked, her thin white face flushed red, and the pointed onion fingers with tender red nails pointed at herself, "Am I not the eldest daughter anymore?" ”
