Chapter 523: Tearing Each Other (For the Squeaky Alliance)
Cousin from Jinling......
Wu Baozhang felt very harsh when he heard it, he wanted to say something, but he felt that it was not good to say anything at this time, so he simply lowered his head and drank a few sips of tea.
Cheng Zhen came over.
He first greeted Grandma Chen with a smile: "Are you busy with today's chores?" I heard that my cousin from Jinling is here......" He said, his eyes looked at Wu Baozhang, his jade-like face was not happy, and there was even a little confusion in his eyes, and after a while, he said in a tentative tone: "You are, the eldest lady of the Wu prefect's family?!" ”
actually pretended not to know her at all.
Wu Baozhang blocked his chest in one breath and didn't breathe through for half a day.
Cheng Lu leaned over and said to Grandma Chen: "She is the daughter of Lord Wu of the Jinling Prefect, married to Cheng Nuo in the fifth room of Jiuru Lane, and she can be regarded as my younger brother's daughter-in-law, but she is not a cousin." Now Uncle Wen of Wufang is doing business in the capital, and she came here as my cousin, I'm afraid that she is looking for something to me, so you should avoid it first! ”
Jiuru Xiangcheng's five rooms were so depressed that they wanted to open a tea shop for a living......
Grandma Chen glanced at Wu Baozhang with a smile and said, "In this case, my cousin will sit with my father-in-law, and I will order someone to prepare lunch." ”
What's the point with her staying here to eat?
Wu Baozhang said coldly: "Thank you grandma." I had a few words to say to Chen Gongzi, and I left after speaking. I'm still waiting for me to go back for lunch! ”
Mrs. Chen pursed her lips disdainfully, and walked away without looking at her out of the corner of her eye.
The flame that Wu Baozhang suppressed in his heart rushed up, stood up and said, "Cheng Xiangqing, what do you mean by this?" ”
It's just that her voice hasn't fallen yet. Cheng Yu stood up suddenly, and looked straight at Wu Baozhang with a sharp gaze. He said in a deep voice: "Grandma Nuo, for my sake, you are the wife of Brother Nuo." I don't care about these rude acts with you, but if you want to sprinkle it on me, I am not the wooden man who has no temper. My wife is virtuous, let us have a place to speak, you should know something interesting, make me anxious, and you don't want to have a good life. Then his face turned gloomy, and he said, "Say something quickly!" I'm going to go to the National Prison soon. ”
Wu Baozhang was almost so angry that he closed his breath. I just feel that she has encountered more things in the past two or three days than she has encountered in her life.
First Cheng turned his face and didn't recognize people, and then he was snub and contemptuous. That Chen looks so vulgar, Cheng Lu is still affectionate to her for her family...... I think that at the beginning, he also used such a tone and demeanor to talk to himself...... So what's so good about Chen? Compared with the Chen family, in addition to the Chen family, no, even the family is not as good, but the Chen family has someone to support her, and Cheng Lu treats her as a mustard.
But how could she say this?
The chest was pounded like a muffled pain. She was silent for a long time.
Cheng Zhen was impatient.
He finally dragged Chen in the palm of his hand, making Chen feel deep affection for him, and found a way to gain Chen Li's trust, if Wu Baozhang spoiled his good deeds. He'd rather strangle her with his own hands right now.
"What the hell are you doing here?" He said impatiently, looking at Wu Baozhang's gaze becoming more and more cold.
When Wu Baozhang saw such a gaze, it was as if he had been drenched in water on a hot day. My brain was cold and I came to my senses.
What is she doing with him now?
Able to get rid of Cheng Chen. She should be happy, what kind of troubled waters are she wading in?
Wu Baozhang took a deep breath. immediately had an idea, and said in a low voice: "You think I want to come to you, I feel sorry for my more than 1,000 taels of silver." I also know that you don't have any money to give me back now, but you have to give me some more. The silver I gave you was misappropriated from the money in the Cheng family's tea shop, and if they found out, even if I wasn't abandoned and went home, I wouldn't be able to raise my head in the Cheng family from now on. It's just a dead word, what else am I afraid of......"
Cheng Yan didn't believe it at all.
A woman like Wu Baozhang, is she not greedy for a few silver when she presides over the feed-in club?
He thought for a while and said, "You go back first, and I'll find a way to get a few dozen taels of silver from Chen's hand and let someone send it to me." Don't come to me in the future, when I have money, I will naturally have someone send it to you. ”
It is true that the inheritance is not the same as the inheritance. Wu Baozhang also knew that no matter how much trouble she made today, she couldn't make a name for herself.
She and Cheng said goodbye.
Cheng Lu asked a personal grandmother beside Chen's to send her out, and then went to Chen's by herself.
Chen said, "What about your cousin?" Why don't you stay for lunch? ”
"No, you don't." Cheng Yu said with a smile, "He heard that his father was the great eunuch of the Qianqing Palace, so he thought of asking me to help find a way to do business with the Internal Affairs Bureau." I knew that my Uncle Wen Cong and Brother Nuo Cong were not business materials, so I was afraid of causing trouble for my father, so I pushed it off. He added, "It's just that she won't give up yet, and she will find it in the future." If she comes to her, you don't have to worry about my face, just send people away. ”
Chen smiled and disagreed.
If it weren't for the fact that he was in trouble and asked their family for shelter, how could he fall in love with himself who looked so ordinary? What a cousin's, she won't take it to heart at all. As long as you don't make trouble at her house, as long as you don't make any scandals that make her unable to get off the stage.
As soon as his father is in power, he has to be low in front of himself for a day. What if one day my father dies...... Chen snorted coldly, her son is also older, and she is afraid that she will not be able to fight a son-in-law who has become rich!
Chen gently served Cheng Lu to change clothes.
Wu Baozhang returned home, but did not see Cheng Nuo.
She didn't bother to ask him.
But Cheng Nuo went out early and returned late for a few days in a row, and she couldn't help but be curious, and asked the maid next to her: "Do you know what Uncle is busy with these days?" ”
The maid smiled and said: "Uncle has now taken over the big sale and bought it, saying that he can earn thousands of taels of silver!" The uncle also said that if the silver arrives, everyone will be rewarded with two taels of silver, and everyone will be invited to the banquet. ”
I didn't expect Cheng Nuo to make money!
Wu Baozhang's mood was slightly better.
But this good mood didn't last for a few days, and it ended when Cheng Nuo broke into the inner room with a gloomy face and threw a silver ticket in her face.
"Look at what you're doing!" Cheng Nuo, who has always been gentle and cowardly, was like an angry King Kong at this time, and his eyes were red. "Who is Cheng Chen? You met him, something that even his biological mother could throw away. actually borrowed him twenty taels of silver, not to mention, the people in the family didn't even say a word? Do you know if he is a scum who was removed from the name of the Cheng family! Is it someone who is disliked by the long house and the second room? ”
The silver ticket stamped with the seal of the Yongfusheng Silver House fell lightly at her feet. She was like being in cold water, cold from her fingers to her heart.
Cheng ...... How dare he...... How dare you......
Wu Baozhang's eyes were also red, but she knew better in her heart that she could never admit this matter at this time. Once she admits it, I'm afraid this matter will have to go to Cheng Wen, and once the matter gets to Cheng Wen, Cheng Wen will definitely go to the long room to apologize. The last time about the garden, she finally found an excuse to make the people in the long house believe that she was passing by unintentionally, if she talked about it again. Mrs. Yuan will not let her go.
"Where did you meet Cheng Lu?" She said, her eyes reddened, and she said aggrievedly, "How did I know I would meet him?" I met him on the street that day, he was so desperate that I want to lend him some silver, I was entangled by him and had no choice, and I thought that everyone knew each other in the past, and how good he and Xianggong had fun together at that time, and my heart was soft. lent the twenty taels of silver tickets he carried with him to Cheng Yuan. I didn't think about asking him back. It's just that he and Xianggong have all their affection, and I didn't think about having anything to do with him again......"
Cheng Nuo looked at Wu Baozhang suspiciously.
How strong Wu Baozhang's temperament is, others don't know, but he has personally learned it.
If you ignore it, you can make her say three points.
She had a point. How to make such a weak look.
But he has always been cowardly, and although he was suspicious in his heart, Wu Baozhang relented in the end. That Cheng Lu is also as Wu Baozhang said, everyone grew up together since childhood. Cheng Lu reads books well and once instructed him in his homework. Although Cheng Zhen has changed. But in the end, it was his brother, and it was not a big deal to borrow twenty taels of silver.
Cheng Nuo said: "Did he come to you again?" ”
Wu Baozhang saw that his tone was softened, and he knew that the wind and waves were calm, so he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and said, "If I see him again later, I will definitely go and tell the people in the long room...... The Dong family is still relying on the family's relief. Since Cheng Zhen has a chance, she should also take her mother over to enjoy the blessings. ”
Speaking of this, she couldn't help but think of Dong's idea.
If the Dong family is brought to the capital, Cheng Lu's expression will definitely be very exciting!
Wu Baozhang pondered in his heart, and a little maid ran in and said, "Grandma, the eldest master said that the fourth wife over there in Chaoyangmen has launched, let you hurry over." ”
Zhou Shaojin is going to give birth?
Wu Baozhang opened his mouth wide and said, "What day is today?" ”
The little maid hurriedly said: "April 29." ”
Wu Baozhang said: "She is the first child, I'm afraid it's not so fast!" What's the hurry? ”
Cheng Nuo got angry again when he heard this, and said: "That is, she gave birth to her child, except for the doctor's wife, Wenpo and the old lady who were present in the town, you can neither replace her pain nor replace her pain, I think you should not go." In the future, it's good to stay at home and do laundry and cooking, anyway, some people don't go or not! ”
Wu Baozhang's forehead was bruised, and he said, "Didn't I say it?" Didn't say no? And when you were in the long house, you took me to make a raft. If you have the ability, go yourself! What do you want your daughter-in-law to do with her head exposed? ”
Cheng Nuo brushed his sleeves away.
Wu Baozhang sat there and couldn't stop breathing, and quietly instructed his maid, "You go to Fuchengmen and ask him what he means?" took twenty taels of silver to mock me, are you not ready to pay me back? ”
The maid hesitated for a while, and saw that Wu Baozhang had no intention of changing his mind, so she had to go to Fuchengmen.
On the side of Chaoyang Gate, Mrs. Guo prepared the blood room early in the morning.
As soon as Zhou Shaojin started, he was helped into the blood room by the experienced Wen Po, and the doctor was waiting on the side, Qiu was sitting in the blood room, and Mrs. Guo was chanting in the Buddhist hall. Even so, giving birth to a child still made Zhou Shaojin suffer a lot of sins.
