Chapter 37 Cen Niang's persistence
The gray courtyard wall separates the earth, dividing the vast heaven and earth in half, and the outside is a colorful red world, and inside is a dark and dark vine. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Green willows are planted on both sides of the courtyard wall, the green willows hang low in midsummer, thick and shiny, the vines in the deserted courtyard climb all over the wall, Cen Niang has not been here for a long time, this time I don't know what my mother called me to do, and my mother rarely takes the initiative to see herself.
The courtyard looks ordinary from afar, only to find that there is a hole in the sky, the entrance is a winding verandah path, the road under the feet is paved by large and small pebbles, there is a slight tingling sensation when stepping on it, Cen Niang is a little unhappy in her heart: "I've seen weird, I've never seen such a weird one, the best bluestone slab is not used, you have to use any pebbles."
Cen Niang walked quickly to the backyard, along the way Yong Road is connected, the mountains and stones are embellished, and the whole courtyard pursues a natural and harmonious style, without seeing a little grace and luxury, magnificent luxury.
Cen Niang walked through the courtyard, stepped on the cobblestones, and finally arrived in front of a quaint hut, and there was a sound of wooden fish in the house.
Giggle......
The percussion sound is empty and melodious, and the round Qianzhi is percussed on the heartless wood, and the timbre is thick and long, like a rootless duckweed, which makes people melancholy for no reason.
Cen Niang stood outside the house, the sound of the wooden fish stopped before stepping in, the high shrine sat west to east, and the light shone obliquely down from the gap between the tiles on the statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva, covering the statue with a layer of gold, and it became more and more kind.
Cen Niang stepped forward and saluted Guanyin Bodhisattva sincerely, and Fang turned around and followed out.
"Mother, I wonder what you called your daughter for today?" Cen Niang looked respectful.
"What, a mother misses her daughter, what reason do you need?" Yao Sanniang looked at Cen Niang, who looked extremely restrained, and sighed in her heart: "I'm so old, I can't be on the stage like this."
Cen Niang and Yao Sanniang's mother and daughter have known each other for many years, and they know each other: "You can't be on the stage, you have to give people the opportunity to go on stage, you can't take care of your days when you are old, and you meddle in the affairs of the oblique building all day long, Cen Niang feels very depressed", of course, these rebellious words, Cen Niang only dared to think about it in her heart.
"I called you here today because of a dream", Yao Sanniang looked at Cen Niang's cowardice, and she didn't have the heart to talk about the so-called mother-daughter relationship, anyway, it was not a mother-daughter.
Cen Niang's body shook when she heard the word 'ghost': "Okay, you Wu Qi who eats inside and out, see how the old lady cleans you up when she goes back."
Cen Niang gritted her teeth and thought of it, and forced out a smile: "Mother, what did the dream tell you?" β
"Why do you want to go back to settle accounts after the autumn", Yao Sanniang looked at Cen Niang with an uncertain expression.
"Do you think you are doing the right thing, doing useless work with great fanfare, it is better to take good care of the cash cow in your hand than to waste money like this, it is really true", Yao Sanniang sometimes thinks about it, the more she feels that she was blind at the beginning, and chose such a wreck among a group of good talents.
"Mother is wronged! Daughter is not really helpless, so she made this decision", although Cen Niang is ambitious and talented, she also knows that crying children have milk to eat, thinking that Yao Sanniang chose a successor, she relied on this means to solve the opponent and successfully ascended to the position.
Cen Niang, you are brought up by my Yao Sanniang, what do you think, being a mother is clear, but there are some things that can't be done too much, and you have to leave a way back for yourself......
Cen Niang listened to Yao Sanniang's lesson dejectedly and remained silent.
Nothing can be done as you please......
"Go back and scatter all the girls you bought! It is serious to cherish the talents in front of you", Yao Sanniang made the final decision.
"No", Cen Niang blurted out, and lowered her head in response, looking at her toes to avoid Yao Sanniang's criticism.
"It seems that you are now hardened in your wings, you have your own ideas, and you don't even listen to your mother's words", seeing that Cen Niang, who has always been well-behaved and obedient, dared to openly refute herself, Yao Sanniang was very surprised for a while,
"Well... Okay, you're good", Yao Sanniang laughed angrily.
"Mother, why don't you understand your daughter's difficulties!" As soon as Cen Niang saw Yao Sanniang angry, she trembled with conditioned reflex all over her body, mainly because the shadow of her childhood was too deep and penetrated deep into the bone marrow.
(βoβ) Oh.......
"Mother, you don't know, the cheap hoof of Youmeng, now thinking about her Ao Lang, and not picking up other guests, is completely burdened, and now the business of Xianyilou has plummeted, and my daughter really has no choice", Cen Niang explained in panic, her ears were hot, and her palms were sweaty.
"Cheap hoof, is this your attitude towards a cash cow?" Yao Sanniang stared at Cen Niang's eyes, as if she was looking at another person through Cen Niang, this kind of gaze made Cen Niang's heart tremble, and she hated her kind of eyes since she was a child.
Cen Niang's heart was irritable and anxious, and her blood rushed to her brain: "A cheap hoof is a cheap hoof"
Today, Yao Sanniang is angry, Cen Niang is not only not obedient and flattering as in the past, but she broke the jar and broke it, it seems that she has been holding a grudge for a long time.
"Mother has been for more than ten years, when you left the oblique building, you clearly said that you would let Cen Niang preside over the overall situation, but as soon as there is something in the oblique building, you will intervene, which time you did not intervene, the oblique building has no room for Cen Niang's beak", the more Cen Niang thought about it, the more she felt wronged, her anger churned in her chest, her beautiful face was wrinkled, and the kitten who was docile on weekdays suddenly showed her fangs, looking quite powerful.
Yao Sanniang didn't say a word, put the teacup in her hand on the desk, 'bang' scared Cen Niang, Cen Niang just had the audacity to vent her anger, venting her complete personal soberness, her heart was quite empty, and she didn't dare to say a word again.
The quiet embroidery needles in the room can be heard on the floor.
"Say! Aren't you pretty imposing? Yao Sanniang's eyes burst out with flames, glaring at Cen Niang, as if she wanted to choose someone to eat.
You think you're justified, don't you? Youmeng has been trained in piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry and dance since he was a child, and he can become the leader of the entire Qinglou industry today, do you think all this is easy.
Cen Niang was stunned and extremely stubborn.
"Youmeng is a simple and kind girl, you have to cherish it", Yao Sanniang's stern face gradually faded, and she comforted bitterly: "Youmeng receives famous people in the whole world, literati doctors, wealthy businessmen, and high-rollers, which one of them does not admire Youmeng's talent and appearance, these guests are tasteful and elegant, cultivated and pursued differently from ordinary men, they are not just simple hunting, but also seeking spiritual comfort."
Cen Niang believed that the next one could still defeat the dream, but her mother was exaggerating.
"You ...... you", Yao Sanniang pointed at Cen Niang's hatred of iron and steel: "What do you know, what is the talent and appearance of Youmeng, the greater role is the capital for men to show off to their peers, with her entanglement with King Anping and King Xuan, she will not worry about having no guests, don't you even understand this for so long."
Cen Niang secretly glanced at Yao Sanniang, and saw that her mother's face was pale, her brows were frowning, and her heart was tight.
But Cen Niang didn't want to regress today no matter what, and she couldn't regress.
Famous prostitutes with elegant demeanor and good color can be cultivated, and the relationship can also be re-established, and the mother vetoed Cen Niang with her past prejudices, which is unfair to Cen Niang.
"Fair, you actually said fairness to your mother", Yao Sanniang has been completely lost temper by Cen Niang, she has been in this business for so long, and she can still be so naΓ―ve, it is simply commendable courage.
"Mother, you just believe Cen Niang once!" Cen Niang was frightened by Yao Sanniang's sneer, and her heart suddenly rose to her throat, and she kept pounding.
"No" Yao Sanniang rejected Cen Niang categorically, her attitude was resolute and there was no room for maneuver, Cen Niang's tense body softened suddenly, and her heart felt as if she had fallen into an ice cave, cold to the bone.
"One last time I warn you, don't stuff those unpopular goods into the oblique building, the oblique building is not all goods", Yao Sanniang repeatedly hit Cen Niang's fragile little liver.
Hehe......
"What are you laughing at?" Yao Sanniang was taken aback by Cen Niang's abnormal behavior, but she was scolded stupid by herself.
"I'm afraid that my mother has never treated Cen Niang as a daughter!" Cen Niang seemed to have been hit with a hammer, and said confused nonsense.
Yao Sanniang's eyes locked tightly on Cen Niang's face, Cen Niang had never seen Yao Sanniang show such a demeanor for so many years, she was so frightened that she didn't know what to do, Yao Sanniang's eyes were like a rusty blunt knife, and Cen Niang's already fragile nerves were stunned.
However, thinking of the grievances in her heart, Cen Niang bravely straightened her back again, and looked back at each other without yielding: "If Cen Niang was your biological daughter, would you still be like this?" β
