Cheng Chi didn't say anything, but sighed in his heart.

's mother is getting old, knowing that he doesn't want to get married, and she has begun to urge him in the past two years.

Mrs. Guo was very disappointed with Cheng Chi's reaction, but she didn't dare to say more, for fear that if she was pressed, her son would walk away.

It's rare for him to come once, so don't make him unhappy.

Mrs. Guo adjusted her mood and said with a smile: "Will you stay for lunch?" ”

There was a hint of anticipation in his eyes.

Cheng Chi looked at the sour in his heart, and couldn't help but say: "I haven't eaten bad goose paws for a long time, you let me make one in the kitchen!" ”

"Good, good, good." The smile couldn't stop rippling on Mrs. Guo's face, and she shouted to Pearl Pearl, "The fourth master will stay for lunch at noon today, you go and talk to the kitchen, let them make a bad goose paw, and then make a mixed vegetarian silk, and put less sesame oil; Fry a herring piece, put some Sichuan chili, steamed lion's head, put more water chestnuts, crispy pigeon to be paired with our home-made five-spice powder, and then use the mutton sent by the Shen family a few days ago to make a pot, with some side dishes and bring it over, and let them watch the rest. ”

There are all kinds of them, all of them are Hechengchi's appetite.

Pearl smiled and responded "yes", seeing that Mrs. Guo was full of interest and intended to please, she smiled and said, "What about the wine?" What kind of alcohol to drink? A few days ago, the second master asked people to send back the pear blossom white, saying that it was a tribute wine! ”

"You're going to do it." Old Madam Guo smiled, glanced at Cheng Chi, and said, "Drink Jinhua wine today - I will also drink two glasses with you." ”

Several big maids in the Hanbi Mountain House know that Mrs. Guo's words are not in Jiuru Lane, but in the Xinglin Hutong in the capital, which is just as good, but when it comes to the fourth master, it will inevitably be discounted.

Pearl couldn't help but glance at Cheng Chi.

Cheng Chi sighed helplessly in his heart, with a little smile on his face, and said, "Just listen to my mother, let's drink Jinhua wine today." You go to Xiaoshan Conggui Courtyard and tell Nanping to ask her to bring the scalding wine jug painted by the beautiful woman I brought back from Quanzhou last time. ”

Now everyone is really happy.

Pearl was even more relieved and went out happily.

Cheng Chi said: "My sister-in-law is not at home, I should have taken you to my place for the New Year." But you also know that the road in the small mountain Congguiyuan is not easy to walk, and it is cold, so I will come to you this year to eat well. ”

"Really!" Mrs. Guo was overjoyed, her eyes were slightly wet, she took his hand and asked repeatedly in surprise and joy, "What you said is true?" ”

Other people's children look at their parents' faces, but only his mother looks at his eyes.

Cheng Chi was almost knocked to the ground by the guilt in his heart, and only after a while did he say, "Naturally, it's true." When have I ever lied to you? ”

"I wish you had deceived me often." Old Madam Guo's eyes were shining, but she had a relieved smile on her face, "You, you are too strong-tempered!" However, what your father said is also right, if you don't have a strong temper, how can you read well? Do you remember when you were a child, you spilled your father's ink, and said that you were painting, and your father deliberately suppressed your arrogance, so he took a paintbrush to you and said, "Then you finish this painting." At that time, you were only six years old, still writing big characters, I don't know where to find Zhang Qiuying's landscape painting, according to the landscape painting to paint a piece of lofty mountains, and then afraid of trouble, at the foot of the mountain to draw a few chickens is finished. Your father asks you, where do the chickens come from in these barren mountains and mountains? Say, "I was afraid that I would be killed and eaten, and I fled from my house." Your father couldn't help but laugh when he heard this. I wanted to punish you severely, but in the end, I didn't do it. As she spoke, she sighed and said, "If your father is alive, he will be sixty-eight this year, and I don't know how happy I am to see you like this!" He used to say that the emperor loved his eldest son, and his father and mother doted on his son. If your eldest brother and second brother dared to be so naughty when they were young, they would have been punished for kneeling in the corridor, but he couldn't harden his heart against you. I'm afraid I'm going to spoil you. He also said, it doesn't matter if you are spoiled, anyway, with your two elder brothers, it is no problem to ensure that you have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of your life, and do whatever you want. I didn't expect your two brothers to trust you with your blessing now......"

Mrs. Guo said, wiping the corners of her eyes sadly.

Cheng Chi doesn't remember much about those things with his father.

He had no intention of upsetting his mother, so he motioned for Jade to take a handkerchief and hand it to his mother, comforting her mother gently: "Am I not good like this?" I didn't become a gentleman, and my mother should be happy for me. I don't know how many people look at my face and act! ”

But that's not as good as being an official!

This sentence swirled around Mrs. Guo's lips and swallowed it back.

She endured the grief in her heart, pulled the veil with a smile, wiped her tears, and said, "I heard that you asked Nanping and them to move to Lixuezhai?" Why don't you move in with me? The wing room behind me is still empty, and if you want to go in and out, you can go through the corner gate on the north side, and it won't get in your way. Everyone lives together and has a lot of fun! ”

Cheng Chi hesitated for a moment and said, "I want to think about it!" ”

In the past, my son refused without hesitation, but after thinking about it this time, Mrs. Guo was already very satisfied, and said busily: "Then think about it carefully." Jiashan won't come back for two years, and your sister-in-law has been with your eldest brother less and more over the years, so I told her to let her stay for a year and a half and come back. The long room is just the two of us, and you don't see a person all year round......"

"I see!" Cheng Chi smiled, thought about it, and added, "I've been busy taking stock over there for the past few days, and I don't have time to think about it for a while." I'll talk about it when I'm done. ”

Mrs. Guo didn't dare to urge again, looked at Cheng Chi with a smile, and asked Jade to change a cup of tea for her son.

The winter sun slanted through the window lattice and shone on Mrs. Guo's body.

The silver threads interspersed with the black hair were shining, making Mrs. Guo a little old.

Cheng Chi looked at it, and felt uncomfortable for a while.

His mother was old, but she couldn't sleep or eat for his business.

But what's wrong with the mother in this matter?

It's just a choice based on a trade-off of interests.

As the children of the Cheng family, they have to contribute to the Cheng family after receiving the support of the Cheng family. If you don't even have this consciousness, how can you enjoy the shadow of the ancestors of the Cheng family?

Cheng Chi couldn't help but hold his mother's hand and said, "Mother, I'll move here in the next two days!" Just to accompany you for the New Year. ”

"What did you say?" Old Madam Guo couldn't believe her ears, her eyes widened like copper bells, and she looked at her son in a daze.

Cheng Chi felt even more sad in his heart.

It's their unfilial piety as sons, why do they make their mothers frightened?

He took a deep breath, and the thought of spending time with his mother was clearer, clearer, and firmer.

"I said, I'll move here tomorrow." Cheng Chi said with a smile, "You quickly arrange for someone to clean out the side rooms behind you this afternoon, I have quite a lot of things over there." I'm afraid that there will be a sedan hall at the north corner gate...... I asked Qin Zi'an to do this......"

He thought about it, but Mrs. Guo was so happy that she couldn't speak, she only knew that she couldn't stop nodding her head while holding her son's hand.

Waiting for Cheng Chi to come out of the Hanbi Mountain House, Huaishan couldn't wait to greet him.

"Fourth master, we, are we still leaving?" He asked thoughtfully.

When he returned to Jinling from the capital, the fourth master lived in the algae garden, but he couldn't stand Mrs. Guo sending clothes and food to the algae garden every day. Now, the fourth master has decided to move to Hanbi Mountain House to live......

"There is no need to change what has already been decided." Cheng Chi knew what he was thinking, once the news of moving to Hanbi Mountain House came out, there would be many people who had the same scruples as Huaishan, he intended to let Huaishan explain this qiē, and said, "I'm going to leave in two years, take this opportunity to be filial to my mother!" The son wants to raise but the parent is not there. I am a relative, but I don't want to raise it. In these two years, it should be regarded as my last filial piety to my mother! By the end of the day, he was stunned.

Huaishan whispered "yes", and his feelings were also very low.

In Jiashutang, Mrs. Chu sent Zhou Shaojin away, and talked to Mrs. Guan about Cheng Yi: "...... If it is a qiē all shun lì, and He'er can marry the daughter of Mian Zhi's brother, I want to ask for Yi'er to marry Shaojin. You have also seen that although Shao Jin is soft and weak, she is not confused when it is critical, and she can control Yi'er, and with her helping me watch Yiyi, I can also worry less. ”

Mrs. Guan muttered: "The children are still young, my aunt has just gone to Baoding, and there are many things to be busy, and the new wife is about to give birth again, so I should find a suitable opportunity to mention this matter to my aunt." ”

"Good!" Mrs. Chuda happily responded, and when she saw Zhou Shaojin again, her eyes were much more eager, which made Zhou Shaojin secretly beat the drum in her heart, and she couldn't guess whether Mrs. Chuda was so enthusiastic about herself because she helped her say Cheng Yi, or because Mrs. Chuda asked for something else to be so enthusiastic about herself.

Fortunately, there are a lot of things to do during the New Year, she doesn't often meet Mrs. Chuda, after being a little uncomfortable, she was quickly relieved, and saw that Zhou Chujin was busy with Mrs. Chuda, so she urged the maids in the house to sweep the dust and paste charms.

Zhixiang said with a smile: "In the past, these were all the affairs of the eldest lady, when did the second lady also take care of these trivial matters?" ”

Zhou Shaojin blushed and forced himself to calm down, "That's because you guys are lazy this year!" ”

The crowd burst into laughter.

Holding incense and said, "The second lady also started joking with the slaves. ”

Zhou Shaojin pursed his lips and smiled, pretending to be harsh: "Quickly wipe these flower windows clean, if I see a little dust, there will be no plum cabbage button meat for lunch today." ”

Everyone followed the fun and said that Zhou Shaojin was not as generous as Zhou Chujin's servants.

Zhou Shaojin didn't care, and went to the study with a smile.

The Spring Festival Gala ran over and said, "Second Miss, Fan Qi is back!" ”

Zhou Shaojin stood up in surprise and said busily: "Let him come in!" ”

The Spring Festival Gala turned around and called Fan Qi.

He is thinner than when he left, but he has also grown taller, and his demeanor is a little more calm, a little bit like an adult, and these three months of walking outside have obviously sharpened him.

Seeing Zhou Shaojin, he respectfully saluted her.

Zhou Shaojin saw that he was wearing a brand-new coarse cloth robe, clean and neat, and knew that he had gone home to change his clothes, and ordered the Spring Festival Gala to bring him a stool.
