Chapter 65: Ask
"Just name, no money!"
With this angry shout, Master Cheng in the study smashed the tea bowl in his hand hard, and the tea bowl fell directly into the courtyard across the porch, making a crisp cracking sound.
The little girl in the yard immediately hurried back again.
The housekeeper in the room bowed his head and was silent.
"What else does she want? Do you want me to go and kneel and give it to her myself? Master Cheng shouted, "It's really panting to say that she's fat!" ”
Before the words fell, he stroked his chest and coughed violently, gasping first.
The housekeepers and girls were so frightened that they poured water and patted their faces in vain, and it took a while to recover.
"What else did she say?" Master Cheng asked in a rough voice.
The butler hesitated.
"Nothing else," he said, "that is, the servant girl, told a story. ”
Tale?
Master Cheng sneered.
"Say." He said.
The housekeeper stumbled to tell the story of Banqin.
Master Cheng sneered.
"What a bullshit story." He said, stretching out his hand to break the tea bowl, and couldn't help but be annoyed when he touched it.
The maidservant next to her hurriedly brought one.
"Passing immortals..."Master Cheng held the tea bowl and said slowly, although he didn't care about it, he couldn't help but repeat this story that didn't look like a story in his heart.
Later, the passing fairies who didn't want money were all over the street.
Later, the passing fairies who don't want money are all over the street, so I don't want money, and you don't want to get money.......
Master Cheng was stunned and smashed the tea bowl in his hand again.
"She dares!" He shouted, his face pale and trembling with anger. A word shouted. Another panting. Barely out of breath, he clutched his neck and collapsed on his chest.
The room was in chaos.
"Go get a doctor!"
"Go and invite Madame!"
At this time, Mrs. Cheng, who was sitting in the room, did not look very good.
"What did you say?" She looked at Mrs. Wang in front of her and asked, "Is this family business done?" ”
"Yes, sister, after thinking about it, Seventeen still doesn't want to, the twisted melon is not sweet, so. Forget it. Mrs. Wang smiled.
She was in a good mood, and when she saw that the lady was very happy, without the slightest entanglement, and when she said what her husband asked them to buy and sell, the lady really showed interest.
"If you have the opportunity, you should see it." She said.
Although you can't be in-laws, it doesn't mean that you can't do business, in addition to getting married, there are many ways to cooperate.
They threw out this will, and the lady did not resent the refusal. It's just wonderful.
This lady wants to have means, means, thoughts, and connections. What a great collaborator.
"Kun Niang!"
Mrs. Cheng raised her eyebrows and shouted.
Madame Wang came back to her senses and smiled.
"That's not early, I'll go back first." She said.
"Wait, this hasn't been clarified yet!" Mrs. Cheng said hurriedly, "Why do you say that if you don't do it, you won't do it?" How do you explain this? ”
"What is there to explain, Mrs. Cheng agreed." Mrs. Wang waved her hand and smiled.
"Cheng Niangzi?" Mrs. Cheng was stunned and asked.
Mrs. Wang noticed that she was a little embarrassed.
"I mean, the twisted melon is not sweet, and Mrs. Cheng will agree with this truth." She said.
Mrs. Cheng is not a fool after all, looking at Mrs. Wang.
"Why did you go to see her first?" She asked, "Did you see her mean this?" ”
Mrs. Wang smiled awkwardly.
"Why, I'm just going to take a look." She said, getting up, "I'll go back first, and the family is very busy." ”
Mrs. Cheng was willing to let her go, and reached out to grab it.
"Kun Niang, you make it clear, what the hell is going on? You are still in a hurry to get married, and you regret it in a blink of an eye, you don't lie to me, I don't know you, there is no profit, how can you do it? She raised her eyebrows and said, "If you hide it from me, I'll go home and ask Houlang, and ask him, do you even have to calculate your own sister?" ”
As she said and thought about the events of these days, she couldn't help but feel sad.
"I am in this Cheng family, I have suffered these grievances, these sins, I have confessed and swallowed, but my mother's family, how can I treat me like this?"
As he spoke, tears fell, and he hid his face with one hand and began to cry.
Mrs. Wang was even more embarrassed when she felt empty.
"Sister, how can we calculate you, this matter is really unwilling, there is no way." She hurriedly said, hesitating, "Actually, perhaps, sister, do you know less about this Cheng Niangzi, it's better to ask more and inquire again." ”
Got a little less of it? Inquire again? What is there to know and inquire about this fool?
Mrs. Cheng was stunned for a moment and was about to ask, but the servant woman outside the door hurriedly shouted and ran over.
"My lord is sick again!"
Mrs. Cheng was shocked, and Mrs. Wang took the opportunity to break away from her hand.
"Sister, go see your brother-in-law." She said, "Don't send me, I'll go first." ”
She said that she fled in a hurry, Mrs. Cheng was angry and anxious, she didn't care about her in the end, and was busy going to see Master Cheng.
After a long period of busyness, Master Cheng was temporarily unharmed, but he was ordered by the doctor not to get out of bed for a few days, and repeated instructions not to be angry and to keep his mood comfortable.
These words made Master Cheng angry again.
"How comfortable I am! How comfortable I am! He angrily patted the couch and shouted.
The doctor is famous in Jiangzhou Mansion, and his temper is not small.
"That's your business, master, I don't know." He said, "The little ones only know how to heal diseases, not to cure lives." ”
Master Cheng was angry and fell back, and Mrs. Cheng was also anxious, but she didn't dare to offend this doctor, so she sent her out, and she cried in front of Master Cheng.
"....I know that you can't be angry, but you have to endure it, sir, now there are many tribulations in the family, and my mother is old. Jiro's side is centrifuged again. If you have another one. What should the Cheng family do? She lamented and persuaded, "Life in the world is a forbearance, and after it is endured, it will be over." ”
She persuaded Master Cheng, thinking of these things, especially what Mrs. Shicai Wang suddenly said, she felt more and more sad and cold, and her crying became more and more painful.
Master Cheng saw her let out such a long breath.
"You are relieved, too. The matter has come to this point, and I can only deal with it mentally. He persuaded in turn.
Mrs. Cheng was even more crying and lying on his couch.
"That kid isn't your average ruthless." Master Cheng then said slowly, "I even refused to ask for a dowry..."
Mrs. Cheng raised her head in a daze.
"And what else does she want to do?" She asked, with tears on her face.
Master Cheng looked at the room, and Tie Qing's expression was a little depressed.
"She may want to ruin our Cheng family...", he said slowly.
Is she going to ruin the Cheng family? Mrs. Cheng was stunned.
Not to mention that this matter is so easy to say, and what good is it for her to do so?
"The benefits? Who knows. Master Cheng muttered, "After passing by the immortals all over the street, what benefit does that person get?" ”
What the? Passing fairies? Where did this go?
"What is a passing fairy?" Mrs. Cheng asked puzzled, and subconsciously reached out to probe Master Cheng's forehead.
Master Cheng shook his head and exhaled.
"Someone." He shouted to the outside, "Let the butler come here." ”
The butler came over quickly.
"You go out on the street and ask around. Let's see if anyone knows about the passing immortals in the capital. Master Cheng said after a moment of silence.
Do you really want to ask? Isn't this the handmaid's casual nonsense?
The housekeeper was stunned, but the current master couldn't stand it. He hurriedly answered the call and went out.
"What is a passing fairy? Inquire about this for what? Mrs. Cheng asked again.
Master Cheng sighed.
"I don't know, let's talk about it after asking." He said vaguely.
Speaking of inquiry, Mrs. Cheng was silent for a moment.
"My mother's family doesn't agree with this family affair anymore." She said.
Master Cheng was stunned, but quickly reacted and sat up with his body propped up.
"Could it be that she went to see the lady first to talk about this?" He asked.
"She doesn't admit it, but it clearly does." Mrs. Cheng said, only feeling cold in her heart, "She actually went to see the fool first to talk about it, and the fool agreed, so she came to tell me... Am I not as good as a fool in the eyes of my mother? ”
I wanted to cry again as I spoke.
Master Cheng's expression changed.
"What else do you want me to inquire about that stupid child?" Mrs. Cheng then cried.
"Inquiry!" Master Cheng interrupted her words by shouting, and the person fell back to the couch because of his lack of strength.
Mrs. Cheng was so frightened that she didn't dare to say any more, and comforted her again and again, but Master Cheng held her hand.
"That's not right." He gasped and said, "Seventeen didn't stay in the capital for a long time, and they came back with that fool, they must know something we don't know about that fool!" This must be something that makes them eager to get married soon and suddenly regret their marriage! Moreover, it's still hidden from us! ”
Mrs. Cheng had already guessed this, but she really didn't want to admit it, the hand held by Master Cheng trembled slightly, and she didn't know if she was shaking or Master Cheng was shaking.
"Go and inquire!" Master Cheng gritted his teeth and slowly spit out these words.
Inquire about the passing gods in the capital, what is this called!
The butler stood on the side of the street and sighed, it was only dawn, but he was ready to go out into the street.
It's something he's been doing over and over again for two days in a row.
Originally, he didn't have to go out in person for this kind of trivial matter of inquiring about running errands, but now the old man is in a bad mood, and there are a lot of ugly things in the family.
"Master Yu, are you drinking tea on the street again?" The people in the shops that are open on the street greet each other warmly.
It's just that compared to the previous enthusiasm with awe, now there is less awe, replaced by snooping.
Steward Cheng snorted, smiled faintly and ignored it, rode slowly, came to the most lively street market, and went straight to the largest and most lively tea shop.
"Yu Ye, Yu Ye, the famous food in Beijing that you said that day is really there."
As soon as he entered the door this time, the shopkeeper of the teahouse took it over in person and said with a smile.
Really?
Steward Cheng was also a little surprised, is it really true?
"Tell me what you say." He hurriedly said.
Before his words fell, someone outside the door stomped in.
"Uncle, ask for directions." The man said loudly, with a thick Beijing accent.
Steward Cheng and the shopkeeper all subconsciously looked back and saw that it was a young man in Tsing Yi, covered with wind and dust, obviously coming in a hurry.
"Which one to ask?" The shopkeeper said casually.
"Ask the Cheng family, Beicheng." The little guy in Tsing Yi said. (To be continued......)
