The alleys, which are dilapidated and cluttered, filled with firewood and straw huts of all kinds, are almost impossible to get off to.

The sudden influx of brightly dressed people made the people in the alley also pour out, looking curiously and uneasily.

Because of the suddenness of the matter, at first they thought that there was going to be a dispute and the servants of the Cheng family who followed Cheng Jianniang were so frightened that they avoided it, so when Cheng Jianniang entered Nancheng Mixed Residence here, they didn't follow for a while, and the Zhou family's entourage and this little lady were strange in the eyes of these people.

Well-textured clothes, half of the face exposed under the big hood is enough to dazzle the little lady, the handsome handsome maidservant, the tall and mighty retinue, and the accent of the foreigner.

There are still such people in places like theirs.

"Inquire about individuals, inquire about individuals." Steward Cao said loudly.

"Who do you want to inquire about?" An older man stood up and asked, with a little restraint and a little simple hospitality.

"Cheng Ping." Steward Cao said.

Cheng Ping?

The people around looked at each other with puzzled faces, as if they didn't recognize each other.

"Cheng Ping?" The old man said, shaking his head, "We don't have this person on our side. ”

He stretched out his hand and pointed as he spoke.

"Either you go to the north and ask."

These people are rich people at first glance, and they should also be rich people, although they are all surnamed Cheng, but Cheng on their side is not rich.

"Little liar." Cheng Jianniang said.

As soon as these words came out, the people present fell silent.

Is this swearing?

"Find a little liar." Cheng Jianniang said.

The suddenness of those present.

"Are you looking for that little liar?" The old man asked, taking a step forward.

Cheng Jianniang nodded.

"It turned out to be a little liar!"

"The little liar turned out to be called Cheng Ping?"

"Oh, this little liar is in trouble, isn't he? I said I couldn't keep him."

There was a lot of talk all around.

In this way, Cheng Jianniang breathed a sigh of relief.

"Where does he live?" She asked.

"Him. It turned out that I lived at Su Niangzi's house. The old man said. While looking at the people around you.

"I don't live now. A few days ago, the wind blew down the shack, and he was picked up as firewood, and he hasn't found a place to live, so he mixes here and there every day," someone said loudly.

"Hey, little lady, did he cheat you out of your money? Although his surname is Cheng, he is not a member of our Cheng family. Someone else said with some concern.

Cheng Jianniang listened silently and raised her hand.

"Find." She said.

Steward Cao immediately understood. Take a step forward.

"Get him." He said, untying a money bag from his waist and shaking it, "This is the reward." ”

Under the slanting daylight, this gold silk embroidered bag sparkled in the eyes of the people on the scene, and after a moment of silence, the chickens and dogs jumped in the alley.

The adults drove the children, and the old people did not lag behind, throwing away the dustpan with the dustpan, and throwing away the clothes with the clothes, and running everywhere. So much so that the servants of the Cheng family who followed were all hit and couldn't avoid it.

"What are you doing?" The servants shouted, and they were a little frightened by the meeting.

As the right-hand man of the Cheng family's wives. Almost all the people in Nancheng know them, and if they have the opportunity to see those who are far away, they will come to laugh and say hello, but recently, they have stood so close, and those who are close have been hit by people in a circle, and no one has said hello to them, and they ran away one by one.

The people quickly ran out, and only Cheng Jianniang and her party were left in the originally chaotic alley.

"Lady, sit down and wait." Steward Cao said from the stump of the tree that I don't know whose house was preparing to burn firewood.

Cheng Jianniang sat down in a wrapper.

What are you waiting for? I'm waiting for that man

The servants of the Cheng family, you look at me, I see you look at each other.

"Lady, Madame is looking for you, let's go back first." One stepped forward and said.

"I still have something to do, I'll see her when I'm done." Cheng Jianniang said.

What a big shelf!

The servants looked stunned.

According to the habit, when you meet a sensible person, you will persuade a few words, and if you meet an ignorant person, you will simply put it up and leave, but at this time, this lady seems to be ineffective, that is, she is not sensible, but they can't stand up and leave....Look at the dozen or so men next to you, I believe that if they dare to take the slightest offensive action, these men will swallow them alive like a hungry tiger that pounces.

The scene was frozen for a while, of course, it was just the stagnation of these servants.

For what they thought and worried, Cheng Jianniang and the others didn't care.

As the people here ran away, the noise of other places also sounded from time to time, and soon spread in this area.

But unfortunately, until the last trace of the sunset disappeared, no one found this Cheng Ping.

"Lady, this kid must be hiding, and he has made such a thing before." The old man said, "This kid is probably used to being chased and beaten, and he is very good at hiding... You see, if you go back first, we'll keep looking."

"Yes, lady, let's go back first." The servants also busied themselves with persuasion.

Cheng Jianniang stood up.

"Okay, you keep looking." She said, turning and walking.

Steward Cao threw the money bag in his hand.

In the darkness of the night, the old man moved swiftly and caught it steadily.

"If you find it, you will give a reward, this will be regarded as hard work!" Steward Cao said.

This bag of money has to be consistent! It's just hard-earned money! It's too generous!

The scene suddenly became noisy.

Watching the little lady who was surrounded by a cluster turn and strode away, the wide cloak fluttering in the night.

"Who is this?" The old man couldn't help but mutter.

"With the mother-in-law of the eldest lady and the second lady with you, they are very respectful, they should be distinguished guests over there, right?" Someone said loudly.

Everyone was busy looking for it, many people didn't see those servants, and even if they did, they didn't care about talking, so they stopped at this time and looked at the servant women who followed the little lady, and everyone gradually came back to their senses.

"I remember!" Someone shouted, "It's the idiot who came in the door the day before yesterday!" I remember this garment! ”

With this sentence, more people reacted.

"Yes. I remember that too. Those followers! ”

"Yes, that's right. It's her, I said at the time that she was a fairy-like person! ”

"What's so stupid about this! Are the people over there blind? He said he was a fool! ”

The hustle and bustle of the night is destined to be difficult to calm down on the southern side, and the northern side is no better.

"Who the hell is it?"

Mrs. Cheng couldn't sit still anymore, she had been lying down since she came back from outside the door, and she hadn't even eaten dinner, and looked at the servant woman who came back from inquiring and asked weakly.

"What's going on?"

"I don't know what's going on." The servant replied, "This man only came to us last year. ”

"Last year?" Mrs. Cheng sat up with her body propped up when she heard this, "So it's not from our Cheng family?" So how did he get him in? Hurry away, drive away! ”

"I don't know. I only said that I came from Shuzhou, and the old man sent a message to let me live in, but we don't know what is going on, and I don't have a serious business all day long, and I go around swaggering and cheating for a living, mixing east and west for a day, and it's annoying over there, saying that even children are cheated..."The servant woman said.

Such a person? Mrs. Cheng frowned.

"Did you lie to her too?" She asked.

"Madame won't, she's only been here for three days, and this is the first time she's going out." The servant woman flatly denied it.

That's just as well.

Mrs. Cheng was silent for a moment.

"That. What does this man look like? She asked, with her eyes down.

The servant woman's expression was a little strange.

This, this. This is as if Cheng Jiaoniang is a person....

"Madam, how do you look, and what can you do, such a person—" she couldn't help laughing.

Mrs. Cheng snorted.

What about people like that? A fool... used to be a fool, even if he is good now, he must be different from ordinary people, he understands anything, everything is just looking at the skin.

"Look at it, don't let her go out again and embarrass me." She said.

It's not a problem to look at the point, it's just a question of whether you can watch it.

The servant woman looked complicated and bowed her head in response.

Mrs. Cheng waved her hand, the servants and women hurriedly got up and withdrew, put down the curtains, and turned out a few lights in the quiet of the night, but Mrs. Cheng, who closed her eyes, still couldn't sleep, and the events of the past few days were repeatedly swirling in her mind, only turning her upset.

Mrs. Cheng exhaled tiredly and turned over.

Second Mrs. Cheng, who walked into the door, also heard the servant woman say this, but she didn't care at all with a smile from the moment she entered the door.

"Looking for someone? Then look for it, my lady will find whoever she likes. She said.

The servants laughed.

"Madam, it seems that I have seen the woman of the Qin family." They laughed.

Second Mrs. Cheng pursed her lips and smiled.

"I just went to a shop to see if there were any new materials, but I was blocked, and I had to talk for a long time." She pretended to be a little helpless, but there was a smile in her eyes that couldn't be hidden.

"How about that?" The close servant woman who didn't go with her at home asked hurriedly.

Second Mrs. Cheng smiled slightly.

"I'm a woman, and I don't know if what they say is true or false, so I'll make a decision when the master comes back." She smiled, "After all, it's the eldest daughter of the master, so it's better for me not to interfere." ”

She accentuated her tone on the five words of the lord's eldest daughter.

The servants understood, and they all laughed and bowed.

"Congratulations to Madame." They chuckled.

"What nonsense, go, go." Second Mrs. Cheng pretended to be displeased and waved her hand, saying that she couldn't hold back her laughter.

I really didn't expect that the Zhou family would make such a big arrangement! It's no wonder that I have to toss the dowry again, it turns out that I value the relationship more!

has a relationship, climbing the relationship that was impossible to climb in this life, and from then on, their family is not ordinary, what is money, with this relationship, who would dare to rob her of those dowries.

Not only the dowry, but also the future relationship, and the future marriage of her children.

So is it better to choose the Qin family of the princess's mansion, or what kind of Fengli Lang family to choose? Or that observer judge's house?

The servants surrounded Mrs. Cheng, who had already taken off Zhu Hai and changed into homely clothes, but she was not sleepy.

Where can I sleep! I can't wait to arrive in the blink of an eye, and the second master Cheng will return home to make a decision on this matter!

And the people who can't sleep tonight are not only them, but Mrs. Wang, who returned home, although she was exhausted, was completely sleepy, and she watched her son get up happily, only to feel a splitting headache.

"I knew my mother could do anything for me." Wang Qilang said with a red face.

"It's not a big deal." Mrs. Wang squeezed out a smile and said.

"yes, yes." Wang Qilang nodded again and again, looking at Mrs. Wang, "Oh, mother, your face is so bad..."

Mrs. Wang subconsciously stretched out her hand to touch her face, this is the first time she has coaxed her son, there must be flaws, no matter how much she hides it, she can't hide it...

"My mother has been running around for me for the past few days, and she has been tired like this." Wang Qilang knelt down again, and saluted with a full of distress, "Mother, rest quickly." ”

Madame Wang breathed a sigh of relief, but her smile was more ugly.

"Go to sleep, too." She said.

Wang Qilang got up happily.

"Then I'm going to sleep too, I haven't slept in a long time." He said, jumping out step by step.

"Get a good night's sleep, get a good night's sleep."

His roar was also heard in the courtyard, and when the sound faded away, Mrs. Wang's face in the house immediately collapsed.

The side door sounded, and Master Wang stepped out.

"How long are you going to hide this from him?" He shook his head and said.

"Don't hide it, you see Seventeen is crazy with joy, if you know... If you know, I'm afraid I'm going crazy. Mrs. Wang sighed and put her hand on her forehead.

"But if he said that he would get married next month, how can the groom hide this kind of thing?" Master Wang smiled, "It's not a bride, even if you don't want to be tied with a rope and sent into the cave." ”

"If you can hide it for a few days, count it as a few days." Mrs. Wang said with some irritation.

"Don't worry, he was just scared, he forgot about it in a few days, and then persuaded him, just marry a wife, and not ask for his life." Master Wang smiled with a relaxed and satisfied smile.

I hope so, Mrs. Wang pinched the sun and smiled bitterly.

"It's all because you're too spoiled by him, okay, okay, I'm tired, let's go to sleep quickly." Master Wang said, as he walked into the bedroom.

It's no wonder that she can sleep, Mrs. Wang let out a breath and sat still.

How did it come to this? Mrs. Wang was puzzled.

The night is dark, everything is quiet, and there are many rocks in the lotus pond, so the night breeze has become stranger than elsewhere.

The sound of whimpering wind swirled past the window, and Banqin opened his eyes.

The lotus pond is really not suitable for winter living, and if the lady plans to live for a long time, she has to pick another place.

Banqin got up and lifted the curtain with the lamp, and looked at the couch so frightened that he couldn't help but shudder, and almost cried out.

At other times, Cheng Jianniang, who was sleeping peacefully, sat on the couch in the night and looked at her, and her eyes were darker and brighter than the day under the light of the floor lamp in the corner of the house.

"Lady, you didn't sleep?" Banqin raised the lamp and hurriedly asked, "Do you want anything?" ”

Cheng Jianniang shook her head.

"I can't sleep." She said, smiling slightly.

Can't sleep? Banqin was very surprised.

It was the first time for the lady to be so abnormally sleepless, and when she encountered so many things, whether it was Liu Xiaoli's aggressiveness, or the beheadings of Lang Jun, her routine was never disturbed.

Is it because of that person? Is this person so important?

Banqin knelt down on the mat.

"Lady." She looked up and asked, "That person, does the lady recognize?" (To be continued......)
