Chapter Ninety-Nine: Mother and Son (Pink Ticket 720 Plus Update)
By the time he saw Cheng Xu, Yuan had completely calmed down.
She smiled and ordered the maids to serve refreshments, and asked Cheng Xu about his food, clothing, housing and transportation in a gentle tone.
Yuan's nurse couldn't help but sigh in her heart when she looked at it.
She knew it was going to happen.
No matter how angry Yuan was in his heart, as long as he saw the uncle, he had no temper, so whenever the Yuan family said that he wanted to discipline the uncle, none of them dared to take it seriously.
She glanced at the maids and daughters-in-law who served in the house, and everyone tiptoed back, leaving Yuan's mother and son to speak considerately.
Yuan looked at it, nodded secretly at the nurse's interest, and then forked a piece of melon with a toothpick and gave it to his son, and said with a smile: "It is said that there is no longer a buy on the market, you like to eat it when you are young, eat more." ā
Cheng Xu is the grandson of Changfang and the future son of Jiuru Lane, he doesn't need to do anything, so someone will come to him and take the initiative to hand him the news about him. It's just that this time Yuan immediately sent someone to call him, he didn't know why his mother was looking for him, so he took the melon with a smile and ate it.
Yuan asked him: "I heard that you have been very close to Cheng Xiangqing these days?" Don't you usually associate with people like him? Why did you change your mind again? ā
In Yuan's view, Cheng Lu lost his father at an early age and was raised by his widowed mother alone, and he was able to be exquisite, and no one praised him, if he was not a great sage and a great sage, he was a great traitor, whether it was the former or the latter, he was not a person who could be friends, and it was better to stay away.
Cheng Xu didn't expect his mother to ask about this, and he said vaguely: "Didn't he win the show?" A few days ago, a friend was invited to a banquet, and he was also present, and he was also from the Cheng family, so he said a few more words and felt that he was not bad. Occasionally, they will talk to each other for conversations. ā
"Since that's the case," Yuan said with a frown. "You're supposed to be on good terms with him. Why is he going around talking in front of others, you embarrass him for the second lady of the four-room Zhou family...... Listen to what this is? ā
Cheng Xu was surprised.
He knew that Cheng Yuan had taken a fancy to Zhou Shaojin, but Zhou Shaojin had no good impression of Cheng Shaojin. If Cheng Lu is a person with good character, he will be fine. Cheng Lu was ambitious, for the sake of the future, when he was embarrassed by him, he actually hinted that he could help him get Zhou Shaojin, and he also broke off the relationship with Zhou Shaojin...... At that moment, I was really moved, but more. But it is a deep scruple about Cheng Zhen - how can a person who can betray even the woman he likes treat his friends sincerely!
Cheng Xu wants to know what Cheng Zhen wants to do? At the same time, there was a faint thought in his heart that if he didn't jump into this pit, with Zhou Shaojin's beauty, Cheng Lu would definitely tempt other people to jump into this pit.
Rather than having another person who likes Zhou Shaojin, it is better to deal with Cheng Shaojin in person.
So he acquiesced to Cheng Lu's rumors, and also wanted to see Zhou Shaojin's reaction. In addition, Zhou Zhen is about to come back, if he hears such a rumor, he will directly deny Cheng Zhen...... Not necessarily a bad thing.
As for himself, as long as he invited the elders to come forward. These rumors are self-defeating.
But he didn't expect that after only two or three days of the incident, someone sued his mother.
He thought about it and immediately had an idea.
"Mother." Cheng Xu said sincerely, "There is something you may not know - Cheng Xu, who has always wanted to marry the second cousin of the Zhou family. He told Yuan what had happened, and said, "If he has a good character, I naturally won't care." But think about it, with his temperament, how could he really ask to marry the second cousin of the Zhou family? He said this only because the second cousin of the Zhou family also saw his thoughts. He was unwilling to give him a private relationship, and he became angry. only ruined the reputation of the second cousin of the Zhou family. ā
Although Yuan's was unexpected, his son's caution. also exposed to her.
She couldn't help but say, "Even so, why did he use you as a cover?" It must be your inappropriate words and deeds, so that Cheng Lu feels that there is an opportunity to take advantage of it! Whatever the purpose of that journey, this is the end of the matter. Mother might as well be honest with you. Your father has finally come to this day, but the ancestor of the second room still has many excuses, and he is unwilling to return the family tree to us. He is now desperately holding on to spending two or three months every year walking around, just because he is afraid that the connections left in the past will gradually fade with the days, counting on your brother to be able to get the title of the gold list as soon as possible so that you can help him in his career, your father can have today, but he has not contributed a little, but because he is in an important position, your father can only wander outside the six departments for so many years in order to avoid it...... As long as you rush to get into the Jinshi before you know your brother, the ancestor of the second room will have no ability anymore. He still has a few years to live, even if he lives to be 800 years old like Peng Zu, can his former colleagues and colleagues live as long as him? When the time comes, he will have to watch the genealogy be handed over to our longhouse...... I think back then, when your father-in-law was seriously ill, and your father and your two uncles were still young, he used this as an excuse to borrow the family tree, and he couldn't return it......"
Cheng Xu didn't understand, he said disapplausively: "Mother, we are a long house, this is something that everyone knows." What if he had taken the family tree? It's a big deal, and we're going to re-establish the sect in the long house. With the current Xuan He of our long house, maybe it would be a good thing to re-establish the sect......"
"You don't understand this." Yuan's expression slowly became solemn, and he said, "I don't know the specifics, I have to ask your father." It seems that the ancestors of the Cheng family have family rules, whoever is in charge of the family tree will be in charge, and whoever can use the money and things in the public can use it. Look at your father, how can he feed us with his money? How do you socialize with Shangfeng? How to help colleagues and friends? If it weren't for the silver subsidy from the public high school, our family would have drunk the northwest wind a long time ago, how could your father earn a huge reputation in Beijing, this is all piled up with silver! ā
Cheng Xu heard of it for the first time. He said: "Mother, isn't the fourth uncle in charge of the general affairs now?" ā
"Then they also need someone in the second room to take care of the housework!" Yuan sneered, "Cheng Shi has gone to manage the general affairs, how can he have the time and energy to participate in the imperial examination?" Otherwise, your fourth uncle is a two-rank jinshi, how can he be at home with such knowledge and knowledge? Your fourth uncle, this is fulfilling your father and your second uncle! ā
So grandmothers, fathers, uncles, and even the second uncle and grandfather in the capital, the third uncle and uncle all feel sorry for the fourth uncle?
Cheng Xu muttered: "Didn't the fourth uncle create the Yutai ticket number?" It's a big deal to give all the properties in the public middle school to the second room, and we will live separately. With the fourth uncle's ability, I don't believe that we will not be able to survive! ā
"If only things were as simple as you think!" Yuan remembered that when he first got married, he built yƬ like this when he didn't have a Yutai ticket number, but her husband smiled bitterly, and he was helpless, and said, "You are still young, and there are some things that are not yet the time to sue you." As long as you listen to your mother's words, study hard, gain fame, and get back the family tree, your mother will be happy. ā
"As long as you listen to your mother's words, study hard, get famous, and your mother will tell you a wife who can help you in your career, and your mother will be happy" This sentence has grown up, and my mother doesn't know how many times she has told him, but today she added a sentence "Take back the family tree at home".
He used to be very excited when he heard it, and even a little complacent, thinking that his mother was the daughter of the elder of the pavilion, and if his father had no accidents, he could also enter the cabinet, and his mother was the wife of the elder of the pavilion, and if he could enter the cabinet like his father, his mother would become the first person in the past...... This honor, he really wants to give to his mother.
But today, he had something else in mind.
"Mother!" Cheng Xu smiled, "Everything is good and bad. Although the wife family and the official family can help me in my career, there are also many children and troubles. Like our house, don't you have a five-room? I think you might as well find me a girl with an innocent background, a simple population, and a father who is an official in the court, at least it won't drag me down...... I work my own, and I may not be able to earn a life for my mother. ā
Yuan was shocked.
The conditions offered by the son are completely based on Zhou Shaojin's family situation.
It seems that his son really took a fancy to Zhou Shaojin!
But she was unwilling to turn her face with her son over this matter. Not only did she not show any different colors, but she also smiled: "I see that you are right, are you fanciing someone's girl?" Tell me about it? Who is it? How does it look? How did you meet? ā
Cheng Xu didn't dare to say.
He knew that as long as he leaked a little bit of air, Zhou Shaojin would be suspected of having a private relationship with him. He can't care about what Cheng Zhen says, because with Cheng Zhen's status, as long as the Cheng family denies it, no one will believe what he says at all. But he couldn't let the elders in the family suspect Zhou Shaojin. Otherwise, even if his marriage with Zhou Shaojin is completed, Zhou Shaojin will not have a good life. Maybe it will make the mother dissatisfied, and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law will not get along......
He smiled casually: "Mother, am I that kind of person?" Voyeur other people's girls in private? That's just what I'm saying, that's what I'm thinking. The orders of my parents and the words of the matchmaker, I don't have to listen to my mother in the end. ā
"That's good!" Yuan was waiting for her son's words, and she smiled, "My mother has taken a fancy to the eldest lady of the Min family in Fujian, and she is the sister of Min Jianxing, the champion of the Renchen family." You should have heard of them, one emperor, two champions, one leader, and twelve jinshi......"
Cheng Xu's brain "buzzed", what his mother said, he was vaguely a little inaudible, but he knew in his heart that this matter was going to be bad.
Mother's idea of beating the Min family is definitely not a day or two. As long as her mother decides something, few people can make her change her mind.
He stood up in a "free" motion.
"What are you going to do?" Yuan's face sank, and his gaze fell on Cheng Xu's face like a knife, "Mother is talking to you!" What kind of bullish temper are you doing? ā
Like a scoop of cold water pouring down from his head, Cheng Xu suddenly came to his senses.
He kept admonishing himself in his heart.
If you want to calm down, you must calm down, otherwise things will definitely be smashed, and it will be out of control!
