Since Mrs. Liao is going to rush to the capital to do a hundred days for the official brother, the full moon ceremony can't be too grand. After Liao Shaotang and Zhou Chujin discussed, they decided that the official brother would only invite his relatives to have a meal when the moon was full, and wait until the 100th day ceremony to post to his in-laws and friends.

Li and Zhou Shaojin were busy with the full moon of the official brother.

Cheng He suddenly arrived in the capital and stayed at the Gaosheng Inn next to Yushu Hutong.

Zhou Shaojin was taken aback, and hurriedly instructed the steward to move Cheng He's luggage over, and said angrily: "Cousin He has come to the capital, how can he go to the inn?" Why did our sisters leave Jiuru Lane, and Cousin He was so alienated from us! ”

Cheng He saw that she was still as gentle and demure as before, and her hanging heart fell to the ground.

"I didn't even know you could be the home of Elm Alley." He joked to Zhou Shaojin, "I'm here to help Brother Guan make the full moon, who knew that you actually decided to do it for 100 days." I can't stay until then, and next month your cousin will take a kiss, and I'll rush back to help! ”

Cheng He is Zhou Chujin's cousin, but Li is not Cheng He's aunt, Cheng Huan visited, Li naturally wanted to avoid it, and this hospitality fell on Zhou Shaojin.

Zhou Shaojin couldn't help but apologize when he heard this: "The full moon of the state official's brother and the marriage date of his cousin are too close, I didn't expect that someone would come over there in Jinling City, and the letter was not delivered in time. Why don't I accompany the steward to walk around with my cousin tomorrow, and my cousin will stay in the capital for a few more days before going back? ”

Cheng He smiled: "Who was in a hurry with me as soon as they heard that I was going to the inn just now?" Now they are so polite to keep me for two days...... Where are cousins like? You should let me keep the full moon gift and go back quickly! ”

Zhou Shaojin laughed.

Cheng Huan looked at her with a smile in his eyes, looked happy, and said in a low voice: "Shaojin, you will live in the capital for a few more days, right?" Forget all the things in the past and live your own little life. You don't owe anything to our Cheng family. Don't pay attention to those people in the Cheng family. ”

Zhou Shaojin's tears almost fell.

Cheng He didn't go to Xinglin Hutong when he came to the capital, but lived in an inn, which in itself represents Sifang's attitude towards the cave incident.

What else could she ask for?

Zhou Shaojin said sincerely: "Cousin, I'm fine." I grew up in Cheng's family, and although Cheng Xu hurt me, I also remember the kindness of the Cheng family to me. Besides, I don't think there's anything wrong with me, why can't I associate with the people of the Cheng family? I don't just have to deal with the Cheng family who are good to me. I'm going to have a fair deal with them. She said. He felt that his tone was too harsh, and joked with a smile, "Cousin He's not trying to stop interacting with me from now on, right?" ”

Cheng He saw that she had no worries about the past. laughed and said sincerely: "It seems that I live the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, and my vision is too narrow." You're right, we didn't do anything wrong. To hide, it is also those who have done the wrong thing to hide. Be weak-hearted. It's also those who do the wrong thing with a weak heart. ”

Zhou Shaojin smiled and nodded.

Only then did Cheng Huan tell her: "Brother Xu Cong has been engaged to the eldest lady of the Min family, and Mrs. Yuan and the others may come to the capital in April to prepare for the wedding with the young lady of the Min family." ”

Cousin Hu is afraid that she will not feel comfortable meeting Cheng Xu in Beijing, right?

After all, the Cheng family and the Zhou family are in-laws, and they are guests. There is a high probability of bumping into it.

Zhou Shaojin felt warm in his heart and said, "Is Mrs. Guo also coming?" I thought the Cheng family was marrying a bride in Jinling City. ”

"Mrs. Guo is not coming." Cheng He said, "Listen to my grandmother." The bride's maiden home is in Fujian, which is too far away. Prepare to get married in the capital. Mrs. Yuan was considerate of her in-laws, so she decided to marry the bride in the capital. The wedding date is set for September this year. After the bride returns to the door, take the bride back to worship the ancestors and salute the elders. ”

That's fine.

At least neither the bride nor the bride will hear any gossip. It can also express the thoughtfulness of the Cheng family to the Min family.

It's just that the bride is bitter, and she has to run around on both sides.

Zhou Shaojin bowed.

She used to be very curious about what kind of person the eldest lady of the Min family was, but now, he has no interest in Cheng Xu's affairs at all, and even this curiosity is gone.

Cheng Huan said about Cheng Chen, "...... Do you know about it? ”

"Yes." Zhou Shaojin said, "I've heard my brother-in-law say it. ”

Cheng He smiled bitterly and sighed, and said: "In the past, I admired Xiangqing very much, and felt that although he was sluggish in his early years, he had a peaceful mentality, worked hard, and was a person who did great things. So seeing that he is very good to you, I think it's not bad...... Who knew I was looking away...... I can understand that he sold his capital to bribe the school, but I really can't imagine that he abandoned his biological mother......"

Zhou Shaojin comforted him: "Cousin He is a person of pure filial piety, so naturally I can't understand his well-dressed behavior!" ”

Cheng Huan was still a little sad, and told her: "After all, his mother has been a wife for many years, and she can't stay in the nunnery for a few months, and she came to the house to beg the elders of the family several times, and wanted to help her in Jiuru Lane, but the elders in several rooms ignored her, and only sent her mother who was in charge to send her a few taels of silver, and I heard that she went back to her parents' house for a few days and was kicked out by several of her nephews and daughters-in-law, and the silver was coaxed out by several nephews to supplement the nephews, so she had to go back to the nunnery. The elders of the family have decided to expel Cheng Lu from the clan, and before I came, I had already told my ancestors, and I should report to the government at this time. ”

Same as in previous lives.

It's just that I don't know if Cheng Zhen will meet the benefactor who married his daughter to him and helped him set up his own door.

Zhou Shaojin sighed and passed, and she took Cheng He to see the official brother.

Zhou Chujin couldn't see the wind yet, so the nurse took the child out to show him.

The white and chubby child made Cheng He love it, and Zhou Youjin, who also came to see Brother Guan, was anxious: "Uncle He, Uncle He, I want to see it too, I want to watch it too!" ”

Cheng He smiled and put the child on the kang.

Zhou Youjin squatted aside and looked at Brother Guan without blinking, and told Cheng He: "You can't poke his face, he will be in pain." ”

Cheng He couldn't laugh and said, "This is what your mother said to you yesterday, right?" ”

Zhou Youjin didn't understand what he was talking about, and looked at him blankly with wide eyes.

Cheng He was very rare, hugged Zhou Youjin and said to Zhou Shaojin: "Your little sister is really interesting!" ”

Zhou Shaojin said helplessly: "Mrs. has been telling her to speak. She just wouldn't speak. Unexpectedly, as soon as she saw Brother Guan, she began to speak, and when she spoke, she was sentence by sentence, which scared us all. ”

"You were like that when you were a kid." Cheng He recalled, "We thought you were dumb at that time? I worried my grandmother so much that I didn't sleep well for several days and nights. ”

Zhou Shaojin smiled.

The nurse carried the child back to the inner room, and Zhou Youjin also followed her to the inner room.

Zhou Shaojin sent Cheng He out of the main room.

met Liao Shaotang, who hurried back with the letter.

Liao Shaotang enthusiastically pulled Cheng He to drink.

Zhou Shaojin prepares meals for them.

In the evening, she heard the news of Cheng Chi's return to Beijing.

More than a month earlier than Cheng Chi said.

Zhou Chujin guessed with a smile: "Is it to rush back to make a full moon for our official brother?" ”

Zhou Shaojin didn't realize it. smiled: "Maybe it's done outside?" ”

"It's possible." Zhou Chujin said with a smile. "Anyway, we have to visit Uncle Chi. However, I am still in confinement, so it is inconvenient to go out. It's better to run for us. Wait until I'm out of confinement. It's not too late for me to go and thank Uncle Chi again. ”

Zhou Shaojin posted a post towards Yuqian Hutong.

Soon there was a response from there, inviting her to come and visit the next day.

The weather gradually warmed up, and Zhou Shaojin carefully picked out a lotus lotus pigmented Hangzhou silk jacket, a horse-faced skirt with green oil inlaid with a ruler-wide treasure flower hem. A large red agate grape fell from his waist, and his black hair was curled on the back of his head. Wearing a crown of gold and jade, he went to Yuqian Hutong in a sedan chair.

Along the way, she lifted the sedan curtain and looked at the way to Yuqian Hutong.

Yuqian Hutong is really close to Yushu Hutong.

The two alleys are just separated by a large avenue, and it only takes a stick of incense to sit in a sedan chair.

Like where Liao Shaotang and Zhou Shaojin live in Yushu Hutong, Cheng Chi's house in Yuqian Hutong is also a small courtyard that only enters one. Entering the door is carved with the big inverted "Fu" word bluestone word shadow wall, the ground is paved with terrazzo bricks, and there are two laurel trees planted in front of the hanging flower door. Pink and white walls, bright red floor-to-ceiling columns. Green sand windows, grape trellises in the middle of the yard, stone benches and stone chairs below, and a large fish tank of blue and white porcelain next to it, you don't need to look to know how many goldfish are raised in it.

Zhou Shaojin couldn't help pouting.

Uncle Chi is such a particular person, why is he so unconcerned about where he lives?

Could this be just a temporary place for him to stay?

It was Huaishan who came to greet her.

He said a little uneasily: "Second Miss, the fourth master was waiting for you to come, but I didn't expect the old lady Song to come over suddenly, and he was pulling the fourth master to look at the hydrological map in the study, only to bother you to wait in the banquet room first." ”

Zhou Shaojin didn't care.

On the boat to Putuo Mountain, she knew how obsessed Cheng Chi and Mrs. Song were with these things.

She smiled and went to the banquet room with Huaishan, who personally poured her a cup of tea.

Zhou Shaojin looked at the banquet room.

The big kang near the window, the black lacquered furniture, and a few gifts are placed on the lattice of Duobao Pavilion, which looks decent and has no new ideas.

Or felt Zhou Shaojin's "disgust", Huaishan said: "The fourth master originally bought a house in Chaoyangmen, four into five wide, it is the mansion of the former Zhejiang salt transport envoy Shi Daren, the fourth master also specially let people repair it, it took some effort, who knows that when he came to the capital, the fourth master changed his mind and bought a small house here again." It's close to the second lady, but the house hasn't had time to clean up, and most of it is left by the former landlord, and it's a mess. The fourth master didn't speak, and Ziping was not good at making additions, which made the second cousin laugh. ”

Zhou Shaojin's face was steaming.

Closer to Miss Two...... Is it because of this reason that I temporarily bought a house in Yuqian Hutong?

Her heart was pounding, and she couldn't calm down for a while.
