Zhou Shaojin was so angry that he didn't want to speak, and returned to Wanxiangju speechlessly all the way.

Zhou Chujin was waiting for her in her inner room, and seeing that her face was pale, she hurriedly said, "What did Cheng Zhen tell you?" ”

Zhou Shaojin had no face to recount what Cheng Yu said to her sister.

She directly said the result: "Cheng Lu found out that I knew about the mansion in Guanjie, and the first person came to tell me that the house was bought by him by accident and wanted to give it to me, but because there was no suitable opportunity, he never told me about it...... Then I mainly came to test whether I knew the grievances between the two families of Chengzhuang......"

Zhou Chujin was also taken aback.

Looking at her sister's forbearance of anger, she vaguely guessed Cheng Lu's intentions.

Although she vaguely felt that the Cheng family was not a good match before, but seeing that her sister became much more lively every time she saw Cheng Chen, she felt that she was too careful, and now her sister and Cheng Rong did not come together as she was worried, which was very good for her. Naturally, she wouldn't bother to ask her sister for details.

But what she has discovered these days has always made her feel a little apprehensive.

She groaned: "Shaojin, you asked Ma Fushan to inquire about who the house in Guanjie is, and he knows about the house in Guanjie, which is also natural." But how could he test whether you knew about the grievances between the two families of Cheng Zhuang? Isn't he dead yet? Why does he tempt you? Even if you don't take these things to heart, how can your father and grandmother marry you to the Cheng family? ”

If this is heard by people who know the inside story, I am afraid that the girl of the Zhou family will not be able to marry, and she will have to rely on the Cheng family!

Although Zhou Chujin didn't say this explicitly, Zhou Shaojin understood it.

Her heart throbbed.

In his previous life, Cheng Lu successfully concealed his grandmother and aunt.

In other words, the maternal grandmother and the eldest aunt either did not know about it, or were persuaded by Cheng Chen.

Cheng Lu met the old beggar two years ago, and he began to approach him two years ago.

The old beggar once said that Cheng Lu's mother, Dong, knew nothing about this matter.

Was he improvised? Or did they find out that their grandmother and aunt didn't know about it at all, so they started to do it?

Zhou Shaojin thought that in his previous life, his grandmother was the master of his own marriage and the Cheng family, and his father was strongly opposed, and then he didn't know what his grandmother said to his father, although his father did not object again, but he wrote to her separately to ask her if she was willing to follow him to the post. Because she has never lived with her father, at that time her stepsister Zhou Youjin died, and Tinglan, the maid who was left by her mother to her father, seized the opportunity of her father to have an heir, and successfully conceived and gave birth to a child, but was left by her stepmother to go to her mother, she was afraid of her stepmother and was unwilling to follow her father to take office...... As a result, without waiting for his father to agree to the family affairs of the two families, Cheng Lu and Wu Baozhang made a marriage.

In the past life, there were signs for everything.

It's just that she didn't find out.

Cheng Lu married Wu Baozhang because he knew that his father would oppose her marriage to Cheng Lu? Or did Wu Baozhang originally mix a kick?

Zhou Shaojin decided to find out all about this matter.

Otherwise, the so-called saving yourself, that's a joke at all.

She also felt a little resentment in her heart because of this.

Cheng Chen, it's too much!

Zhou Shaojin perfunctorily said a few words to her sister.

Zhou Chujin saw that she was insincere, and thought that she couldn't accept Cheng Chen's matter for a while, so she was secretly sad, so she pretended to be confused, chatted casually, and went to Mrs. Chuda.

On the way, she asked someone to bring a message to Ma Fushan's family, asking her to enter the house immediately.

When Ma Fushan's family entered the house, she pulled Ma Fushan's family aside and said quietly: "If the second lady has any orders in the future, you just have to follow them, but afterwards, whether you buy a flower or a needle, you have to tell me carefully." Then he solemnly told Ma Fushan's family, "Don't let the second lady know about this matter." ”

It is related to the reputation of the Zhuang family and Zhou Zhen, Ma Fushan is tight-mouthed, Ma Fushan's family does not know what happened, although she is puzzled in her heart, but she still passes the words to Ma Fushan word for word and without changing a word.

And Zhou Shaojin, who stayed alone in the inner room, did needlework for a while, and he couldn't sit still.

She wanted to know if her grandmother knew about the grievances between the Zhuang Cheng family.

Zhou Shaojin asked the Spring Festival Gala to inquire about what Mrs. Guan was doing.

The Spring Festival Gala came back to tell her: "...... Lao An and several of the wives of the grange were talking. ”

Zhou Shaojin was patient, and finally waited until noon, but the old lady Guan left the wives of the grange for lunch, so that their sisters did not have to come to serve, and left a few old ladies to erase the cards.

The sun hung brightly overhead, the bluestone courtyard was rolling, and the cicadas were chirping higher than one.

Although there was a fan to help with the Spring Festival Gala, Zhou Shaojin still felt so hot that she panicked and couldn't fall asleep over and over.

The Spring Festival Gala said: "Second Miss, I'll bring you a bowl of chilled bayberry!" ”

Jinling is not like the capital, it will store ice in winter, and there are ice cubes to relieve the heat in summer, Zhou Shaojin spent the last ten years in the capital, but she is not used to the heat of Jinling.

Or is it not that you are not used to the heat of Jinling, but that you are in an irritable mood?

Zhou Shaojin secretly asked the Spring Festival Gala: "Is there any lotus seed soup?" I haven't used well water to town. ”

Later, her health became very poor, and she had long since stopped eating bayberry and mung beans.

The Spring Festival Gala went to the kitchen, brought a bowl of lotus seed soup that was still a little hot, and fanned it vigorously with a fan.

Zhou Shaojin's mood became more and more hot, and he decided to go to Hanbi Mountain House to copy scriptures.

The Spring Festival Gala looked at the scorching sun outside and hesitated: "Now? ”

Zhou Shaojin nodded.

Maybe walking under the sun and sweating will make her feel better.

The Spring Festival Gala called a little girl, holding an umbrella, bringing a handkerchief, Rendan, gold and silver water, etc., and accompanied Zhou Shaojin to Hanbi Mountain House.

Although there was shade from the trees, the sunlight shot down through the branches like golden arrows.

Zhou Shaojin's body gradually warmed up, and her heart seemed to be gradually warmed by the sun.

When she walked to the Hanbi Mountain House, she was already covered in sweat, but she was full of joy.

The trees in the Hanbi mountain house are in the shade, full of cicadas, but no one is silent.

At this time, everyone must be taking a lunch break.

Zhou Shaojin went to the Buddha hall familiarly.

A little maid rubbed her eyes and ran out, and when she saw that it was them, she yawned and squatted down to salute, and said vaguely, "Second Miss, you are here", and rubbed her eyes as if she was going to sleep.

Zhou Shaojin smiled: "You go and rest!" I went to the temple to copy the scriptures. Wait for Jasper to come over, you can tell her. There is no need to alarm Mrs. Guo. ”

The little maid nodded.

Suddenly there was a crackling sound of porcelain falling to the ground in the upper room.

The little maid was excited, sobered up, and looked at Zhou Shaojin, who had wide-eyed eyes.

Old Madam Guo's cold voice came from the house: "I don't like Shiro and eunuchs, why doesn't he want to think about it, without Shiro, does he have a comfortable life today?" You go and tell him whether he wants to live this day or not, whatever he wants! Anyway, the ancestor has already divided the ancestral property, if he wants to be in charge of the family tree, it's okay, let's divide the family tree, otherwise, let him hand over the family tree. Don't think that without him Cheng Xu, the Cheng family's life will not be able to go on! If he wants to take the burden, it depends on whether the long house agrees or not......"

Don't ignore indecency, don't listen to indecency.

Zhou Shaojin and the little maid fled in panic, one went to the Buddhist hall, and the other hid in the tea room.

Until he sat down in the Buddhist hall, Zhou Shaojin's heart was still pounding.

She instructed the Spring Festival Gala and the little maid: "You have to keep your mouth tight, if I hear any gossip, no one will ask, I will look for you." ”

The two swore by the heavens.

Only then did Zhou Shaojin realize that he was hiding in the wrong place.

She should go back to Wanxiangju, what's the matter with running to the Buddha Hall?

If the people in the Hanbi Mountain House asked, how would she answer?

Zhou Shaojin is not good at moving around at this time. Fortunately, she often copied scriptures and books in the Buddhist hall, had everything she could do with her toiletries, and had a few standing clothes.

She didn't have the heart to copy the scriptures for a while, she sat there blowing the wind, planning to wait a little longer, Mrs. Guo's side should be finished, and it would not be too late for her to return to Wanxiangju.

But sitting there, the words she heard just now were like drills, drilling straight into her mind, and she couldn't help but think about it.

The "he" that Mrs. Guo said was obviously Cheng Xu, the ancestor of the second room. Mrs. Guo unceremoniously called her by her name as her niece and daughter-in-law, which shows the depth of resentment...... "Shiro" should be Uncle Chi. He was fourth. Last time on the day of bathing the Buddha, when Mrs. Guo asked her grandmother to worship the Buddha, she also mentioned a title, and at that time she asked Uncle Chi to exchange copper coins...... What are the grievances between the long room and the second room? The genealogy of the Cheng family is actually in the hands of the second room...... Cheng Xu dislikes Uncle Chi's association with eunuchs, which should refer to Wan Tong...... Most scholars look down on eunuchs, unlike those nobles and relatives in the capital, who like to associate with eunuchs...... But Wan Tong guards Jinling, the Cheng family is known as the first in Jinling, and Uncle Chi is in charge of the Cheng family's affairs, so it is impossible not to interact with Wan Tong! Cheng Xu is a person who used to worship Jiu Chat, he should know this, why do he dislike Uncle Chi and the eunuchs?

Could it be that Uncle Chi has done something that damages the reputation or interests of the Cheng family?

Zhou Shaojin thought of him lazily snuggling on the big pillow and drinking tea!

It's not like that!

However, people are not allowed to look at each other, and it may not be necessary that something really happened......

Mrs. Guo's tone is really big, and she dares to shout if she divides the sect...... When Cheng Xu says that he is burdened, what does he mean? Didn't Cheng Xu stop doing things a long time ago?

Zhou Shaojin felt as if she had peeked into something...... I was very uneasy.

The Jiuru Alley Cheng family, which looked like a harmonious group, had already been stormy and turbulent, and the undercurrent was surging.

With just a few words of his own, can he really save the Cheng family?

For the first time after Zhou Shaojin was reborn, he felt how naïve his previous ideas were!

She was a little overwhelmed.

It was decided that it would be better to copy a few pages of the scriptures.

Once upon a time, whenever she was upset, she copied the scriptures.

This time was no exception.

At the sound of cicadas, her heart slowly calmed down.
