Chapter Twenty-Nine: Injustice

At the end of the month, the atmosphere in Mrs. Cheng's courtyard was a little more tense than before.

Smack.

The ladies of the housekeepers who knelt in the room shivered.

"I don't need to be in charge of this house now, do I?" Mrs. Cheng raised her eyebrows and shouted.

Scattered ledgers were scattered on the ground.

"Madam, it was ordered by the second lady herself, it's really ......," said several housekeepers and ladies leaning over the ground and trembling voices.

They didn't know what to say about this, but they were afraid that they would fall into a handle that would instigate the discord between the two concubines.

It's her again, why is this young lady living smaller and smaller?

She refused to say that she couldn't see it anymore, otherwise she would have cut clothes at will, buy toys, and add delicacies and seas at will this time.

"Second lady, please." Mrs. Cheng said, "You all go down." ”

The ladies in charge were busy responding, packing up the account books and carefully rushing out.

When they go out, they all glance at each other and stick out their tongues.

Stay away.

Second Mrs. Cheng smiled when she heard that the eldest lady was invited.

"What is my sister-in-law looking for you?" Cheng Er, who was sitting on the ground reading a book, asked casually.

"Maybe I won't see you for a few days, miss me." Second Mrs. Cheng smiled and stood up.

Second Master Cheng laughed.

"Then you go quickly, you can sit down." He said.

Watching Mrs. Cheng Er walk out of the house, Mr. Cheng Er, who was reading the book, yawned, and heard the laughter of a woman outside.

He put down the book and got up and walked out, and it didn't take long for the laughter outside to disappear, and the servant women in the courtyard didn't see Second Master Cheng come back.

"Who's out there?" A servant asked with a pursed smile.

A servant woman standing in the doorway pouted.

"The aunt's man in the East Courtyard." She whispered.

"This aunt's eyes are really sharp." The servant woman laughed.

The two servants looked at each other and laughed silently.

Second Mrs. Cheng walked unhurriedly on the road with the maid girl, and went to the eldest lady to pass the lotus pond.

"I haven't seen it for a few days, but this chrysanthemum has bloomed." She said, looking at the chrysanthemums by the flower pond.

"Yes, chrysanthemums bloomed early this year." The servant woman laughed.

Second Mrs. Cheng slowed down.

"Well, okay, I'll see." She said.

The servants behind him glanced at each other, a little anxious and a little puzzled.

Isn't Mrs. Cheng looking for something? Why, still delayed?

But they weren't stupid enough to remind them that Second Mrs. Cheng was not a fool!

"Mother." Cheng Qiniang's voice came from the opposite side.

Second Mrs. Cheng looked over and saw that Cheng Qiniang and several other girls were also enjoying the flowers.

"Have fun, be careful, don't fall into the water." She said.

Cheng Qiniang clasped her hands over there and shouted, watching her mother leave with someone.

"It's boring." She said, throwing the flower branch in her hand into the pool.

Cheng Wuniang and Siniang are picking chrysanthemums for Liuniang to wear.

"I heard that Mrs. Dong's family held a tea party." Cheng Liuniang said.

"So what, we can't go, we go and be laughed at." Cheng Qiniang said, sat down on the rock, and looked at the chrysanthemum in front of her, "When will that fool leave?" ”

"Don't talk nonsense, where are you going?" Cheng Wuniang said.

"Our chrysanthemums bloom so well, Dong Niangzi's family doesn't have them, she holds a tea party, I can hold a chrysanthemum party." Cheng Liuniang's eyes lit up and said.

"Sister, you are still laughed at when you go out, do you invite someone to come to the house to see the fool?" Cheng Qiniang pouted, reached out and tore a half-open chrysanthemum, crumpled it and threw it on the ground.

"yes." Cheng Liuniang said dejectedly.

"Why don't you send her to the Taoist temple, my father said it, and the Taoist priest said at the time that it would be good for her to send her to the Taoist temple." Cheng Qiniang grabbed the chrysanthemum and said angrily.

Cheng Liuniang looked thoughtfully at the bright chrysanthemums in the yard.

"You enjoy the flowers." The man's voice came.

The sisters looked at it and smiled in surprise.

"Fourth brother!"

I haven't seen Cheng Shilang lose a lot of weight in a month, but he looks energetic, and he stands aside with the girl.

The sisters gathered around to say hello.

"Fourth brother, do you still dare to come to the garden, aren't you afraid of being caught by female ghosts again?" Cheng Qiniang said with a smile.

The other sisters were busy with her.

Cheng Shilang smiled without hindrance.

"Don't be afraid, ghosts are afraid of wicked people, she didn't catch them last time, but she didn't dare to come this time." He smiled and stroked Cheng Qiniang's head.

"Fourth brother, ghost, does it look scary?" Cheng Qiniang was interested and asked curiously.

"It's not scary." Cheng Shilang said with a smile.

"Okay, okay, let the fourth brother walk slowly and scatter his mind, let's play over there." Cheng Wuniang said.

Although Cheng Qiniang still wanted to ask about the female ghost, she had no choice but to leave her sisters, and she didn't want to be left alone to play with her, so she reluctantly followed.

"Childe, you're tired, let's go back." Chunlan asked.

"Not tired." Cheng Shilang looked not far ahead and said, "Let's go again." ”

Chunlan answered by helping him, and the two walked slowly.

When they came to the big rock, they stopped at the same time.

Cheng Shilang turned his head to look at Chunlan when he was about to speak, and saw that she was staring blankly at the mountain rock.

She... How do you see it?

Cheng Shilang looked over, and in a trance, he saw the woman sitting upright and staring indifferently, and it dissipated in the blink of an eye.

"Chunlan, have you come here to ask for a female ghost?" He suddenly said, "Could it be that you see something here?" ”

Chunlan shuddered.

"Slave maid, here, I met someone who gave the slave maid an idea and saved the son." She said.

Cheng Shilang sighed, feeling a little disappointed.

Maybe the woman was really his vision, and he was sick at the time.

"That girl from the Zhou family." He said, smiling slightly, "Before Xie Lu thanked her, she left." ”

Chunlan nodded.

"yes." She said, looking at the mountain stone again, the strange thing is that the girl's description is not very clear, but the silly lady covered with a soap veil clearly appeared, she shook her head, "Childe, you are good, let's go back, if it is cold today." ”

Cheng Shilang said hello, helped her turn around and walked away slowly.

At this time, Second Lady Cheng finally sat down in front of Lady Cheng.

"Sister-in-law, the chrysanthemums here are blooming well." She said, looking at a chrysanthemum in front of the screen.

"The garden is all open, and you like to pick more." Mrs. Cheng said.

Second Mrs. Cheng took the tea brought by the girl and took a sip.

"Although our family is good, it is not the best, and a new gardener has come to the city to raise many precious chrysanthemums." She said, "Everyone is rushing to buy it, I was lucky, I accounted for two, and it was delivered in a few days, and my sister-in-law will see it when the time comes, and she will definitely like it." ”

When Mrs. Cheng heard the word noble, her heart was beating wildly.

"How much?" She blurted out.

I heard that the precious flower is worth a thousand gold!

"It's not expensive, three hundred." Second Mrs. Cheng said, "Sister-in-law, when the time comes, we will also hold a flower viewing party in the courtyard......

Before she finished her words, Mrs. Cheng raised her voice and shouted to Qingniang.

Second Mrs. Cheng looked at her and stopped talking.

"Returned the flowers." Mrs. Cheng took a few deep breaths and said.

"Sister-in-law, you haven't seen it yet, you must like it too." Mrs. Cheng Er smiled slightly, touching the fan, this is her newly bought ivory fan, the texture is delicate, I like it very much, "Besides, this deposit has been given, how can there be any such thing as a refund." ”

Mrs. Cheng looked at her and gritted her teeth.

"Okay, since you like it, you can buy whatever you want with your own money." She said.

"Sister-in-law said this." Second Mrs. Cheng smiled and shook her fan, "It's all the people in the family, the family's money, why can't I use it?" ”

"You!" Mrs. Cheng shouted angrily.

This is about the first time Peng Qingniang has spoken to herself like this since she entered the door!

What's wrong with her? Becoming yin and yang! Is the ghost on the body?
